"Clang!"
Two swords clashed in the air, ringing clearly.
Unusually, though both sides were in the explosive state of [Assassin's Bloodline], with astonishing strength, this colossal collision of power did not produce any sparks.
Normally at this point, sparks would be flying everywhere!
Red Dust didn't have time to think, he simply assumed it was due to the high quality of his sword.
He wasn't concerned about luck anymore; with more and more watchful and observant eyes around him, his distractions were slowly stripped away.
All that remained was a pure desire to win.
In this highly-focused state, the already maximized "Time Slowdown" effect of the [Assassin's Bloodline] seemed even stronger.
It was this enhancement that made Red Dust finally notice the anomaly on his sword—
The sword, originally silver-hued and only glowing green in the night, was now radiating a pale-blue glow!
