The surging energy converged towards the Overlord Halberd, like streams of water flowing and gathering on it.
With that energy converging, the power of the Overlord Halberd surged, reaching a new level. Xiang Yu gripped the Overlord Halberd tightly and slashed towards Ying Zheng.
With the support of this power, his strength became incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, his figure appeared in front of Ying Zheng, and the Overlord Halberd roared down with violent power, slashing straight at Ying Zheng's face.
Faced with this fierce sword strike, Ying Zheng remained calm. He lightly raised his Tai'a sword in front of him and blocked the Overlord Halberd, appearing completely at ease.
But in the next instant, just as the Overlord Halberd was about to strike Tai'a, Xiang Yu's figure suddenly disappeared from sight. The next instant, he appeared behind Ying Zheng, followed by Xiang Yu's triumphant voice, "Here."
Almost at the same time his figure appeared, the Overlord Halberd also whistled down, heading straight for Ying Zheng's neck.
This attack was ruthless, and the aura emanating from the Overlord Halberd was terrifying, clearly intended to kill Ying Zheng in one blow and take him down directly.
"clang--"
However, in the next instant, the Overlord Halberd, which was about to strike Ying Zheng, was blocked in an instant. It was Ying Zheng who reacted and instantly turned around to raise the Tai'a Halberd to block Xiang Yu's tricky attack.
With the Overlord Halberd blocked, Xiang Yu frowned, realizing that Ying Zheng's strength was not simple. "He was able to react to that speed."
Xiang Yu had pushed his speed to the limit with those moves, which would have been an insurmountable dead end even for a top cultivator, but Ying Zheng was able to react in time and perfectly block the attack.
Having missed his first attack, Xiang Yu became wary and no longer held back. He gripped the Overlord Halberd tightly with both hands and pushed it forward with tremendous force, causing Ying Zheng to stagger backward.
Then, seizing the opportunity, he stepped forward and swung his Overlord Halberd at Ying Zheng's chest with one hand.
This strike was extremely swift and precise, taking advantage of Ying Zheng's momentary lapse in balance, making it incredibly lethal.
Faced with this attack, Ying Zheng reacted very quickly, dodging the halberd by stepping back.
As Xiang Yu's halberd missed its mark, Ying Zheng seized the opportunity, his figure suddenly rushing towards Xiang Yu. He was so fast that he appeared in front of Xiang Yu in the blink of an eye, his Tai'a sword whistling as it slashed out. He was so fast that he was now only inches away from Xiang Yu in the blink of an eye.
This sword strike was incredibly fast and incredibly powerful. The powerful sword intent surged forth, slashing towards Xiang Yu's neck with unstoppable force, like a dragon emerging from the sea, shaking the entire void.
Faced with this fierce sword strike, Xiang Yu dared not be careless in the slightest. He gripped his Overlord Halberd tightly and blocked it with Tai'a.
"clang!"
The next instant, Tai'a struck heavily against the Overlord Halberd, unleashing a surge of violent sword intent that was as unstoppable as a vast ocean. The violent force sent Xiang Yu flying backward, crashing to the ground with a bang, instantly raising clouds of dust.
Upon seeing this, the head steward's eyes widened, his expression one of utter shock as he stared at the scene. "Such a prodigy has actually been defeated?"
He was well aware of Xiang Yu's talent. His strength was extremely formidable, and his cultivation speed was unimaginably fast. With the help of the head steward, all aspects of his abilities had been greatly improved.
With their current strength, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are invincible in this world.
But now Ying Zheng is showing signs of defeat, which really surprised the chief steward.
A moment later, the dust slowly settled, and Xiang Yu's figure became clear again. He stood there, with some wounds around his body and his clothes torn from friction, showing a hint of defeat.
Seeing this, the head butler looked at the little guy and said, "Young Master, how could you give such power to a mere mortal?"
The strength that Ying Zheng is now displaying has truly exceeded the steward's expectations.
Ying Ziyu's eyes were indifferent. "Father's strength is not due to my efforts."
The head butler was quite surprised. "Oh?"
He was well aware of the cultivation level in this world. The head steward didn't believe that a mortal like Ying Zheng could reach such a level on his own.
The only reason he could think of was that the little guy helped, which gave Ying Zheng such strength. Otherwise, Ying Zheng alone could never have done this.
The little guy's eyes darkened slightly. "You don't understand the emperor's will, so naturally you won't understand the emperor's power."
The little guy knows very well how difficult Ying Zheng's journey was. The hardships and twists and turns, the tribulations and life-and-death situations he went through, from being the despised son of a hostage to becoming the emperor who unified the world, the prosperity and humiliation he experienced are unimaginable to ordinary people.
Having gone through all of this, Ying Zheng's mind and will had reached a height that ordinary people could not reach. Even some top strategists were no match for him.
Now he can transform all of that into his power. His will is the source of his power, and that inexhaustible source naturally makes him incredibly strong, which is why he can now suppress Xiang Yu.
Upon hearing this, the head steward's eyes flickered slightly. "Willpower? In the end, it's just mortal. How far can it go?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng raised the Tai'a sword and pointed it at Xiang Yu, saying, "You'll see how far it goes!"
After he finished speaking, a powerful aura surged around him, with a faint golden luster, like golden water flowing towards Tai'a. With the infusion of golden particles, Tai'a's aura gradually surged.
Then Ying Zheng's figure flashed and instantly appeared in front of Xiang Yu. He raised Tai'a with one hand and slashed down. Instantly, a violent sword intent surged out, and the violent aura was like a mountain flood bursting its banks, with endless power surging down.
Sensing the power of this attack, Xiang Yu frowned, let out a roar, and endless energy around him converged towards the Overlord Halberd, causing the Overlord Halberd to surge with energy as well.
Then Xiang Yu raised his Overlord Halberd with both hands and blocked the Tai'a sword.
"boom!"
The two powerful forces collided, and the terrifying aftershocks spread outwards, surging like a rising tide and creating an incredibly strong gale.
The Tai'a sword fell like a giant mountain, pressing down on Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu gripped the Overlord Halberd tightly with both hands, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
With all his might, the muscles in his arms bulged as he gripped the Overlord Halberd tightly, desperately trying to block the Tai'a sword that was falling like a mountain.
But that force was so powerful that even with all his strength, Xiang Yu could not bring it down.
Under the suppression of the terrifying power, Xiang Yu's entire body began to bend slightly.
Even so, he was unwilling to give up. He gritted his teeth and continued to grip the Overlord Halberd tightly, pushing the Tai'a halberd with all his might, trying to defeat it.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng's eyes darkened, and he pressed down hard with one hand, making the power of Tai'a even more violent, showing an unstoppable momentum.
Although this force was small, it was like the last snowflake that triggered an avalanche. The power of Tai'a suddenly exploded, instantly pressing Xiang Yu's entire body down to the ground.
With a loud "boom," Xiang Yu's entire body slammed into the ground, instantly raising clouds of dust and tearing the earth apart, causing it to tremble violently.
Upon seeing this, the head steward's eyes widened. "How could a mere mortal achieve such a feat?"
