Having said that, he placed his hand on the hilt of the knife.
“Okay…” Si Xiaobei sat back down next to Nanming, who gently patted his head.
Clang—
As the blade was drawn, a chilling aura instantly emanated from it.
Liu Xiaogang's gaze sharpened. Although he didn't know much about knives, he could tell that Ye Yiqing had mastered this knife, and that it was a fine knife with at least a hundred years of history.
Its craftsmanship is probably almost comparable to that of a first-tier [alien artifact].
"Wow! Could that be a demon sword? How did he get that sword?!"
Xinglan looked at Ye Ciqing excitedly, her sparkling eyes full of curiosity.
"Oh, this was a gift from my girlfriend," Ye Ciqing shrugged.
"She said that it's an honor for this knife, and also an honor for the Shimizu family, to be used by someone like my brother."
"Then I gave this family heirloom knife to my brother."
Xinglan was so excited that she saw stars again.
"Alright, let's begin!"
Seeing that Ye Yiqing had already drawn his knife, Liu Xiaogang bent his knees and assumed a fighting stance.
Ye Yiqing gripped the knife with both hands, adopting the same stance, and said, "Hmm."
He had barely finished saying "hmm" when he swiftly swung his sword, the silver-white sword energy flying straight toward Liu Xiaogang with a whooshing sound.
"Holy crap!"
Liu Xiaogang was shocked and quickly bent over and dodged to the side.
The rest of the audience were also deeply moved.
Sun Hai, in particular, had his pupils trembling slightly. Although he himself could also use sword energy...
But that can only be used if one has superpowers.
Therefore, he understands even more how difficult it is to generate sword energy entirely through one's own power.
Ye Yiqing, having delivered the first strike, quickly sheathed the blade.
He pressed his body down, gripped the knife hilt tightly, and his whole body was like an arrow that had been drawn taut.
The next moment, the figure transformed into a streak of cold light, slicing towards Liu Xiaogang, who had just dodged the sword energy, at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye.
Liu Xiaogang's pupils contracted sharply. Knowing he had no time to dodge, he thrust out his spear.
Clang—!
A loud, violent clanging sound erupted the moment the two collided.
Then Ye Yiqing appeared behind Liu Xiaogang and sheathed the buzzing samurai sword.
After a moment's pause, Liu Xiaogang slowly brought the spear to his face and examined it.
On the spear, there was a straight scratch.
It's unimaginable what would happen if that thin samurai sword were used to cut such a mark on such a hard surface.
Liu Xiaogang had already acknowledged Ye Yiqing's strength, but since the fight had already begun, there was no reason to back down halfway.
He turned around and faced Ye Yiqing directly.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Ye Yiqing wielding a knife at him.
In an instant, three blades, like the claws of a ferocious beast, lashed out at him.
Liu Xiaogang's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly swung his gun, shattering the three blade lights.
Then he slashed fiercely at his opponent.
Ye Yiqing also swung his sword at the same time, the serrated blade clashing with the spear.
To neutralize the attack.
Liu Xiaogang frowned as his attack was blocked, feeling something was strange.
The blow just now didn't feel like I'd struck a smooth blade, but rather like I'd been sucked onto the teeth of a ferocious beast; it felt rough and uneven.
Ye Yiqing launched another attack, unleashing countless blades that dazzled Liu Xiaogang, who was struggling to defend himself.
Then I started to envy the other person. We're both just ordinary people, so why does the other person's attack look so cool and dazzling?
He was just like an ordinary person, only knowing how to wield a spear.
Although that's what he thought in his mind, Liu Xiaogang was indeed slightly better in close combat.
Ye Yiqing has already begun to lose ground.
Suddenly, Liu Xiaogang seized the opportunity and slashed Ye Yiqing's samurai sword downwards.
The katana was pressed down, which also caused Ye Yiqing's body to stiffen for a moment.
Liu Xiaogang pressed his advantage, thrusting his spear forward and striking the opponent's throat.
But the next moment, Liu Xiaogang suddenly felt a chill on his neck, as if his head had been chopped off.
The sharp spear stopped in front of his neck. Liu Xiaogang quickly retreated and hurriedly put some distance between himself and the spear.
Ye Yiqing smiled slightly.
Liu Xiaogang hurriedly reached out and touched his neck, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his neck was intact.
Just now, he even saw his great-grandmother.
But then he became doubtful. He was certain that it wasn't his imagination; he could clearly feel the aura of death the moment he was slashed.
How did this kid do that?! Didn't he say he didn't have any superpowers?!
Xinglan, who was watching the scene, was completely bewildered. "What's wrong with Liu Xiaogang? Why does he look so scared?"
Ye Ciqing, who was sitting next to her, smiled mysteriously and said, "He was just killed by my brother."
"Huh?!" Xinglan was even more confused.
"But Ye Yiqing didn't even move his hand just now, how could he have been killed?"
At this moment, Feng Xuan, who was standing nearby, suddenly thought of something, "Could it be... that Ye Yiqing used sword intent to kill Liu Xiaogang?"
Ye Ciqing smiled and nodded, "Although my brother uses a knife, it's the same."
"What is sword intent?" Xinglan turned to Fengxuan and asked.
Feng Xuan patiently explained it to her, and also to the others.
"This is what I learned when I was researching online. It says that sword intent is a kind of ability that a swordsman develops when he reaches the state of oneness with the sword, which is a way to materialize his will."
