The battle between Venom and Tengen Riichi could be decided with a single move, as long as the situation had been thoroughly scouted beforehand. Once one knew the other's details, it would be a matter of waiting for the right moment, finding the weak point, and delivering a fatal blow. If one could survive to this stage, it would be a question of who had more hidden aces up their sleeve.
The darkness of night didn't offer much help to Venom because it was also the Shinobi Sect's prime time.
Faced with Tengen Riichi's sudden advance, Venom was extremely cautious. She was well aware she couldn't rely on the environment or the cover of darkness for an advantage. This battle would be tough; she could only depend on being even more subtle and careful to observe the timing and spot a breach, and then strike to kill.
"Clang~" The sound of metal clashing rang out, followed by Venom rolling away to dodge Tengen Riichi's relentless Jade Entwined Sabre.
