Chương 53: Unprecedented Talent

In an unprecedented move, two boulders were brought into the swordsmanship training hall on the very first day of class, since there were two students that already possessed a complete understanding of basic swordsmanship.

One glance was enough for instructor Mae to determine that both Rocky and Sophia did indeed have excellent technique as the cuts they left in the practice dummies were clean from edge to edge.

To her it was clear that they were not achieved through possessing brute strength or a great blade, but because of perfect technique, which qualified them to move onto the next stage of assessment, the boulder slash.

The boulder that was brought in was about 10 meters tall and four meters wide, being taller than both Sophia and Rocky, making it challenging for them to slice completely through it since they could not use an overhead strike.
