Jamie Moore and Tang-E’s spar followed straight away. There was no need for a break because the spar with Ray had been so short.
“Jamie, don’t be too nervous. Ray has threatening specs, so there was such a result... Jamie, you will be well-cared for by this one-day instructor.” Hyeonu approached the nervous Jamie Moore and patted him on the back.
“I understand, Master Gang. I will do my best.” Jamie Moore was encouraged by Hyeonu and started to gradually eliminate his tension.
Hyeonu smiled slightly at Jamie Moore before turning to look at Tang-E. A deep look appeared in Hyeonu’s eyes. This was a request and a warning to Tang-E, ‘Take care of it in moderation and do it well.’
It was a subtle gaze, but Tang-E nodded slightly like he understood Hyeonu’s meaning. Hyeonu smiled when he saw it and turned to the viewers.
“The second spar will be held soon. At the end of this spar, I will take some time to give feedback using the videos of the spars. People who want to go to the bathroom should go now. Of course, I’m not responsible if you can’t see the spar,” Hyeonu said humorous words toward the viewers.
The joke was more directed at Jamie Moore than the viewers. It was to make him relax more. Hyeonu’s efforts paid off, and Jamie Moore regained his usual composure. It wasn’t just that. When he saw the masked Tang-E, his desire to win was ignited.
“Please take care of me.” Jamie Moore looked at Tang-E with hot eyes and lowered his head. Tang-E nodded in response to Jamie Moor’s greeting, just as he had done with Ray. Jamie Moore pointed his two swords at Tang-E but didn’t make the mistake of running over. Instead, he walked toward Tang-E calmly. He watched Tang-E with both eyes, observing the latter’s whole body, not just one part. It was so that he could react if Tang-E moved to attack.
At this moment, Tang-E moved. He raised his wooden sword that was in contact with the ground. Jamie Moore stopped walking, raised his two swords, and lowered his body’s center of gravity. Tang-E took action to overcome these boundaries. Rather than swinging the wooden sword at Jamie Moore, it was instead moved toward Tang-E’s shoulder.
-????
-What is this now... He’s following Alley Leader, right?
-He is placing the wooden sword on his shoulder?
-Who is this one-day instructor? Who would copy that?
-In fact, he is actually a crazy fan. Lol ㅋㅋ.
The posture that Tang-E took was the one that Hyeonu always took. Tang-E’s face was covered, but his outwardly visible height and body size were strikingly similar to Hyeonu’s. So, the viewers saw Hyeonu in Tang-E.
This was the same for Jamie Moore. ‘Master Gang’s signature...’
It was the trademark posture or symbol of Alley Leader. Numerous people followed it, but it was widely believed it wasn’t effective. Nevertheless, this was being used by the one-day instructor in front of him now.
‘I can’t be swayed. It is obviously a design...’ Jamie Moore thought that Tang-E’s posture was just a provocation. It was to blur his judgment.
However, this was Jamie Moore’s misconception. Tang-E imitated Hyeonu’s posture because he was beaten more frequently when Hyeonu was in this posture. Although Tang-E had made countless efforts to destroy the movements that followed Hyeonu’s posture, he had never blocked it properly. He was always beaten.
Still, his efforts paid off. The more he was beaten, the more he resembled Hyeonu. One of the results was Tang-E’s current posture.
Jamie Moore resumed taking the steps he’d intended before he stopped. He couldn’t stop just because the man in front of him was using a posture that made him flustered. After all, he was currently in a spar.
Jamie Moore, who had been slowly approaching Tang-E, kicked off from the ground and moved at an explosive speed. The speed was very slow compared to Ray. Nevertheless, Tang-E never took his eyes off the approaching Jamie Moore. He never took it lightly. Tang-E had already sparred several times while matching the level of his opponents. He had to slow down his movements depending on his opponent, so he had to focus more.
Jamie Moore’s two swords moved in a circle around Tang-E. It was a crafty joint attack. If the opponent stopped the previous attack, the method to stop the other wooden sword would disappear. It was a unique attack method that couldn’t be stopped using ordinary methods. However, Tang-E made Jamie Moore’s attack meaningless by stretching his neck at precise timing.
‘I have to watch, I have to watch.’ Tang-E stopped the arm that was trying to move. He was confident that he could put his wooden sword to Jamie Moore’s neck if he swung a few more times here. Yet he couldn’t simply do so because Hyeonu had requested it of him.
Jamie Moore was unaware of this and fully focused on defense. Once with the left hand and once with the right hand—he waved his two swords quickly like drawing a spider web in the air.
Tang-E reliably fended off Jamie Moore’s attack. It was impossible to push the wooden swords near Tang-E’s body, regardless of whether Jamie Moore used skills or not.
‘Is he doing this on purpose?’ Hyeonu frowned as he watched the spar between Tang-E and Jamie Moore. Tang-E continued to insist on defending like a broken machine. He didn’t attack at all. Seeing this, it became increasingly difficult to feel any tension from the confrontation between the two people.
‘I smell something bad...’
The live stream was getting a nasty smell. Hyeonu’s mind spun quickly. He was thinking of a way to revive today’s stream that was about to go bust.
‘In any case, it is the last few minutes that will be remembered, even in movies.’
He had to give a reversal at the end of the live stream—something that would be deeply imprinted in the viewers’ minds.
‘What should I do?’
As Hyeonu was thinking about his stream, the spar between Jamie Moore and Tang-E ended. Tang-E considered it appropriate to accept Jamie Moore’s attack and ended the spar.
“Jamie’s spar with the one-day instructor is over. The instructor seems to like Jamie more than Ray. Thus, Jamie was treated more considerately in the spar.”
Hyeonu tried to take care of the situation as much as possible, but the audience didn’t pay attention to his words. They were busy expressing their feelings.
-This is a favor that is almost beyond consideration.
-In fact, today’s instructor is an employee of Nike Management.
-It seems to be a ranker who wants to sign a contract with Nike.
-Is this hospitality? A member of society...
Yet for the most part, the viewers were happy. They knew it as well. The spars of Ray and Jamie Moore were different, but it wasn’t regarded as a big problem. The levels of the two people were so different. One was a ranker who was over level 300 and had completed his fourth class advancement, and the other was a newbie who was just heading toward the second class advancement. Therefore, this consideration was possible.
‘It is better than I thought.’
Hyeonu felt it was very fortunate, but he still wasn’t satisfied.
“Now I am going to use the two sparring videos to give feedback. If you lose, you need to know why you lost in order to develop.”
Hyeonu naturally moved on to the feedback.
“First, let’s look at the spar between Ray and our instructor.”
Hyeonu played the video of Ray and Tang-E’s spar for everyone to see.
“It was good at first. The judgment to strike first without any scruples. It is the best. On the community sites, it isn’t for nothing that those who attack first win. The ones who attack first are ranked even higher. Isn’t this the case?”
There wasn’t a single word in Hyeonu’s feedback that was difficult to understand; it consisted only of content that could be easily understood.
“The problem is after this. The instructor twisted Ray’s greatsword with an attack not usually seen in the platinum section. It was blocked, right? Can you see the level of the one-day instructor here? Who brought such a person?”
-Ah, stop talking nonsense and give the feedback.
-It is too long.
-Perhaps it is due to the comfortable feedback, but he smoothly led to bragging about himself.
-Is this really the level of Alley Leader? Do you have to brag about yourself here?
-So what is the problem?
Hyeonu proceeded with moderate humor during the feedback time that might otherwise be boring.
“It is this part. Ray’s greatsword was pushed back and he lost his balance, right? Here, he used magic power to forcibly change the trajectory of the sword toward the instructor.”
-Ah, I saw it again. Ray’s skills have improved a lot.
-I don’t think he was taught anything in particular. Is there such a change?
-If it is this much, won’t he really be able to reach the diamond rank?
-Then what is the problem? He looks good.
“Didn’t he fail? So this is the problem. It would’ve been better to gently remove himself. Won’t it be good to save magic power and rush over again?”
Hyeonu gave feedback on what he thought of while watching Ray’s spar.
-I can’t understand it?
-Me too.
-How can you get out of that position gently?
-Is it a mouth arena? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Lool ㅋㅋㅋYou can’t do anything with just words.
Nonetheless, Hyeonu’s thoughts were unique to him alone, and there were many things that viewers couldn’t relate to. The things that Hyeonu thought about appeared as a picture in his mind, but this wasn’t the case for viewers.
“Then let me give you a demonstration. Today’s instructor will work as the demonstration assistant.”
Hyeonu stood up from his position. Then he held Ray’s greatsword in his hand. Tang-E heard Hyeonu’s words and stood up.
“Now let’s re-enact the scene that you saw. Thank you to the one-day instructor.”
Hyeonu rushed at Tang-E in a way that was neither quick nor slow and swung the greatsword from top to bottom. Tang-E wielded his sword twice just like he had done to Ray. Meanwhile, Hyeonu’s greatsword swung like a reed, just like Ray’s. However, unlike Ray, Hyeonu quickly rotated his body and moved his feet in the direction the greatsword was shaking. Then he used his centrifugal force to swing the greatsword in a faster and stronger manner.
Tang-E just watched the greatsword that was swinging at an unexpected speed Hyeonu changed the trajectory of the greatsword before it reached Tang-E, slashing empty air.
-Wow, did he mean this?
-I was wondering what he was going to do.
-This seems to be much better than what Ray did.
-This is what it means to be natural.
The viewers nodded while admiring Hyeonu’s movements that were as smooth as flowing water. Seeing something with their eyes made it much easier to understand than listening to it verbally. After that, Hyeonu continued giving detailed feedback until the video of the spars between Tang-E and the two men finished. Hyeonu mentioned things that people wanted to know and things that others hadn’t thought about.
Then it came time to end the live stream.
“Finally, I will finish the live stream today with a spar with today’s instructor.” Hyeonu smiled slyly behind his mask.
‘Sigh... The time of pain is here,’ Tang-E lamented inwardly. Now, it was time for Hyeonu to take revenge on Tang-E, who had caused Hyeonu to suffer during the live stream.
Jamie Moore and Tang-E’s spar followed straight away. There was no need for a break because the spar with Ray had been so short.
“Jamie, don’t be too nervous. Ray has threatening specs, so there was such a result... Jamie, you will be well-cared for by this one-day instructor.” Hyeonu approached the nervous Jamie Moore and patted him on the back.
