Hundred-Yard Sword Image
A sudden explosion of incredible power blasted below in the arena, snapping everyone's attention back towards the two youths. As they looked back at the arena, all they could see was a towering surge of Qi, golden in color like that of the sun, piercing into the sky, stopped only by the defensive formation at the very top of the stadium a dozen miles overhead.
Many wondered if they had missed the start of the battle, caught up in the Sword-Saint and Lilian's discussion to the point that they had missed the youths using battle arts.
Their eyes widened as they saw the real reason for the sudden explosion. It was not some pinnacle battle art being used by the two geniuses, nor was it caused by a clash of their weapons. Even the Sword-Saint's expression changed, from smug arrogance to stunned disbelief.
