The match had begun and Arthur had already run down to the middle lane. It was the position he called beforehand and no one on the team argued with him.

Although Bill was a bit upset he wouldn't see the legendary Sword God's skills in person, he was still over the moon about him accepting his friend request.

This time though, Arthur suddenly stopped by his tower instead of moving forward like he usually did.

"Huh, what's he doing?"

"He's just standing there, did something happen?"

The viewers watching online were currently confused. Arthur had been on a winning streak so far and not just any winning streak, he had been dominating his last few games. This was because Authur and George wanted to rank up as fast a possible so they could find more difficult opponents to face.

But today was different. Arthur didn't want to rush things, he wanted to carefully explain everything he did. Once all his NPC knights had been defeated, only then did he make his move.

"Now watch carefully Novis," Arthur said as he rushed into the middle of the knights.

"It is important to plan your moves beforehand, right now I'm thinking ten steps ahead," Arthur said as he slashed each Knight in one go.

"I picture in my head of all the possible scenarios that might happen, sword fighting is similar to a game of chess."

Suddenly an attack from the diamond player came from behind one of the NPC knights but Arthur was able to parry it away and place his blade at his opponent's Neck. The man stood absolutely still knowing that any slight movement would mean his death.

"But at the same time, something unexpected can happen." Then from the side of the forest, an arrow came flying out towards Arther. Arthur did nothing until the last second when the arrow was within the range of his sword and sliced it down.

"I'm the type of Warrior who performs better when his calm. When my senses are at its maximum. The only problem with this is sometimes you can get what I call tunnel vision." Arthur explained.

Arthur then took his sword away from the man and started to walk back to his tower. "Let's try this again shall we?" Arthur said. "This time Novis I will only use my instincts and not plan ahead."

"What is he doing?" Someone online wrote.

"Why did he let him live, I don't understand."

Arthur then waited until the enemy NPC knights had returned and waited for them to defeat his knights once again.

This time Arthur stepped slightly in front of his tower and instead of attacking the NPC knights one by one, he waited until he was surrounded.

"When you don't plan sometimes you can be put into tricky situations, you have no time to think and must act."

The NPC knights and the enemy Warrior started to attack Arthur together. Arthur carefully avoided each strike by either moving parrying and attacking whenever he got the chance. It was a lot more masterful then before and it looked almost like Arthur was dancing between all the knights.

Then another arrow came shooting from the forest and at the same time the enemy warrior swung his sword down in front of him.

"Oh no, this is the first time I've seen him in trouble!"

"Well, he shouldn't have been messing around so much in the first place."

"Maybe diamond was too much for him."

As the arrow came forward and the sword struck down, Authur ducked and swept kicked the Warriors leg's causing him to fall over. Arthur then immediately spun and caught the arrow with his bare hands before quickly lodging it into the Warrior's throat on the ground.

"No time to think, Just act." Arthur said, "It's important to not only know how to activate your different modes but when to use them as well. If I thought ahead I would have never gotten myself in such a tricky situation in the first place. I had already predicted that there would be a teammate hiding nearby and planned my attack on the NPC knights."

After explaining everything in detail to Novis, Arthur decided to go roaming around the map. His team was losing badly as the enemy team had grouped up often while Arthur was busy teaching. But Arthur wasn't worried, he just saw it as more opportunities to teach Novis.

With each enemy he met, he would first deal with them in a certain way and let them live. Then he would fight them once again and kill them the second time. The online community could only guess as to why Arthur was doing this.

"He's toying with them."

"Yeah, he has to be, showing them how many levels he is above them and how he can finish them off at any time."

"That's just cruel."

Eventually, Arthur had also Arrived at Bill's lane and had done the same. Bill decided to just stand back and watch as it looked like Arthur didn't need any help at all.

While the only community thought Arthur was simply toying with them all. Hastam, Bill, and a few others watching at the time had a different opinion.

"What do you think?" Hastam asked his spirit Xin Mao.

"It's almost as if he's teaching someone." Xin Mao replied.

"I thought the exact same thing but who is he teaching?"

Eventually, the game ended and now it was George's turn to show Novis how he fought. This time when they logged into a game they switched warriors.

When George played he did a similar thing to Arthur only his style was very different. George seemed to perform better when he was put in high adrenaline situations. He performed best when he needed to most.

After finishing the two games they thought Novis had seen enough and it was time to put the theory into practice.

Although the online community was slightly disappointed that nothing too extravagant happened this time compared to the others, the pros around the world had a different feeling.

They felt like they had been sent an individual message from the virtual sword god. A challenge almost saying this is how I fight. Try to beat me.

It lit a fire inside of the pros and they were racing to see who would be the first one to beat the Virtual sword god!
