Chapter 753: You Won

Zhang Heng and the group of Germanic peoples returned to the training grounds.

By then, the sun had completely set. Bach lit an oil lamp, while the remaining Germanic peoples guarded the entrance to the training grounds to ensure the two would not be disturbed.

"What weapon did you want?" Bach asked, jerking his chin at Zhang Heng.

"Just give me a training sword," Zhang Heng said.

"What about armor?"

"Not necessary."

Bach tossed Zhang Heng a training sword and warned, "Let's be clear first. I won't go easy on you just because I admire you. You'd better prepare to get the hell beaten out of you."

"Well... all I can say is, life is unpredictable." Zhang Heng caught the training sword and casually weighed it in his hand.

The Gladiator School's training swords were all wooden, much shorter than a Tachi. They resembled the bronze swords of the Spring and Autumn period somewhat. Perhaps, following the saying that a longer weapon was stronger while a shorter weapon was more dangerous, they were designed to make gladiatorial matches more exciting.

Seeing that Zhang Heng had only taken a training sword, Bach did not want to take advantage of him and likewise took only a training sword.

"Where's your shield?" Zhang Heng asked this time.

"If you don't want one, neither do I," Bach said proudly.

"Suit yourself. If you need one later, you can grab one anytime."

Bach was finally enraged by those words. "Don't think you're so impressive just because I think highly of you. I've changed my mind. I'm going to make sure you can't get out of bed for a week."

"Is that so? Then you'd better put some more strength into it." Zhang Heng remained as unhurried as ever, raising an eyebrow
