Li Rong's face turned pale. He knew that if he let that man get close, his fate would be dire.
Li Rong quickly withdrew and retreated, while at the same time, he gripped his longsword tightly in his left hand and thrust it towards the man in front of him.
Upon seeing this, the man's eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he raised the knife in his right hand and slashed fiercely at Li Rong's longsword. Instantly, Li Rong felt a sharp pain in his hand, and the longsword almost fell to the ground.
Li Rong was startled and quickly let go of his hand. He gripped the tip of the longsword tightly with his right hand and slammed it into the ground to support his body.
"Li Rong, if you admit defeat now, perhaps I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I'll kill you with my sword. Then, even if you want to die, it won't be possible." The man stared at Li Rong with a gloomy face and spoke coldly.
Upon hearing this, Li Rong was filled with rage, his eyes flashing with icy killing intent. He stared intently at the man and said coldly, "Don't even dream about it. I will never lose to you!"
As soon as Li Rong finished speaking, the man burst into laughter, "Didn't you say you wouldn't lose to me? Fine, since that's the case, then today I'll let you witness firsthand what true power is!" With that, the man raised his fist and slammed it towards Li Rong.
Seeing this, Li Rong was not to be outdone and charged forward, brandishing his longsword.
The fight between Li Rong and the man was not short. In just a few rounds, he was already injured, and his body was in excruciating pain.
Not only Li Rong, but all the other onlookers were also dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
They all knew Li Rong's strength; he was a natural expert, far more powerful than Xiao Tian before him.
However, he was actually suppressed by the man in front of him. Just how powerful was that man?
"Didn't you say I wasn't your match? Now our strengths are almost equal, so I'll see just how far you've come!" Li Rong said, his face ashen, as he looked at the man. After he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his longsword and slashed it towards the man's neck.
Upon seeing this, the man chuckled disdainfully and then threw a punch at Li Rong's arm.
With a loud bang, the two men's fists collided, and a tremendous force surged into Li Rong's body. Li Rong immediately felt his blood boil in his chest, and a mouthful of blood gushed from his throat. He quickly covered his mouth with his hand, staring at his opponent in horror, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing this, the man's expression became even more smug. He looked at Li Rong and said, word by word, "Li Rong, aren't you very good at fighting? Let me see what level your martial arts have reached!" With that, he waved his hand and pounced on Li Rong, preparing to launch a new attack.
Seeing this, Li Rong quickly brandished his longsword and rushed towards him.
The two began fighting again in mid-air.
The others watched with burning eyes as Li Rong and the man fought, their faces full of anticipation.
Seeing this, the man curled up a mocking smile, then raised his foot and kicked Li Rong hard. Li Rong quickly waved his long sword to block the kick, but was once again sent flying by the force of the blow.
By this time, his clothes were tattered, revealing his chest and the faint outline of his muscular physique. Moreover, a sharp blade had slashed a deep wound on his shoulder, from which blood flowed freely, making the scene shocking and terrifying.
Li Rong gritted his teeth, enduring the pain in his shoulder, and charged at the man again.
Seeing this, the man shook his head with a cold smile, and then lunged at Li Rong's body again. The two figures clashed fiercely in mid-air once more.
Bang bang bang...
Li Rong's longsword tumbled in the air, each strike carrying immense power. The man, in turn, brandished his long saber, meeting Li Rong's attacks time and again. The two moved constantly, and in the blink of an eye, they had exchanged hundreds of blows.
The onlookers stared wide-eyed at Li Rong and the man, their mouths agape in shock and horror.
"Li Rong, now, let's see if you can withstand my next attack!" The man sneered, and as he spoke, he suddenly swung his knife, which flashed with a sharp, cold light, and slashed fiercely at Li Rong.
"Boy, prepare to die!" Upon seeing this, the man's expression turned ferocious, and his movements became even more brutal.
When Li Rong saw the man's knife slashing towards him, he frowned slightly. He quickly swung his sword to block the man's knife. However, to his surprise, the moment his sword touched the man's knife, it produced a metallic clang. Li Rong's longsword was actually sliced through by the man's knife.
At this moment, Li Rong finally understood just how terrifying the man's strength was. This guy's strength was definitely above his master's. It was already quite remarkable that he could withstand his attacks. If his strength were to break through again, then even if he couldn't defeat the man, he shouldn't lose.
