Sima Yang, the foremost swordsman of the Southern Territory, couldn't help but scoff, his face brimming with contempt as he swung his longsword to block across the void.
However, the very next moment, his expression dramatically changed, becoming one of utter horror.
With a crisp clang, Sima Zhantian's meter-long greatsword chopped down, and Sima Yang's longsword was knocked right out of his hand, flying away. His whole body was violently jolted backward by the force of the other's sword strike.
"That was the first strike!" Sima Zhantian snorted coldly, his entire being radiating an intense fighting spirit.
The people below who had been cheering for Sima Yang were left speechless, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word when they witnessed this scene.
Sima Yang was even more dumbfounded where he stood.
At this moment, Sima Zhantian swept across the sky, striking down with another sword.
