THE START OF HIS PATH III
Struggling to stop his forceful retreat, Alex found himself stumbling and his internal organ rumbling from the force of the strikes from the barbarian's strikes.
Alex found it hard to even hold on to his sword and now, he occasionally used his sword to block some of the slashes from the barbarian.
"Damn, this one is absolutely stronger than the rest," Alex muttered.
Regardless, it wasn't enough to make him despair or think of himself on the losing side. Yes, he felt numb in several places and his bones were put in a lot of pressure, however, the same could be said about the barbarian.
They had only had a short exchange where they had crossed blades over a dozen times, and two parties had welcomed injuries. The barbarian felt as though he was fighting a peer, someone in the same cultivation realm as him.
