There are quite a lot of things we have to talk about.

"AAAGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!"
Nux severed both his arms.
"Haaahhh…"
While Roone howled in agony, Nux sat down right next to him and exhaled deeply.
He was on his edge throughout the entire battle.
All the spars against Astaria, no matter how real they were, in the end, both he and Astaria knew they wouldn't kill each other.
No matter how much they try, it would never become a real battle.
As for the time with Amletus… well, it was not exactly a battle…
Therefore, this was Nux's first time actually fighting against an Emperor.
At first, he tried to sneak up and behead Roone, ending this in a single move, however, as an Emperor who was sensitive to Mana, Roone quickly noticed him and he had to change his attack.
Nux had a psychological advantage in this battle,
A King Stage Cultivator who was fighting against an Emperor.
He was an oddity, so Roone couldn't guess how powerful Nux actually was.
