That loud cry was the sound of two swords clashing. Because it was too fast and the noises too rapid, it seemed to not stop in between.
The clashing noise suddenly stopped, and so did the wind.
Two shadows separated from each other and stood on the ground. Just like before, dozens of yards apart.
Tang Thirty Six lowered his head and glanced at the floor.
Now the wind and sword was calm, the wild grass once again stood straight.
Except earlier that grass was beside his heels. Now it was in front of his shoes.
Tang Thirty Six raised his head and looked at Qi Jian who was on the other side. He noticed that thin youngster was still standing in the original position.
“You are good.”
He said, “I thought since I ate two more years of rice than you, even if I’m terrible, I should be on the same level as you. I never thought I would step back half a feet more.”
Qi Jian looked at him and asked seriously, “Are you going to surrender?”
Tang Thirty Six felt insulted, “Do you think I’m a boring person like that?”
Qi Jian was confused and asked, “Then why did you say something like that.”
Tang Thirty Six answered sincerely, “I’m just reminding myself……I cannot be lazy anymore in the future.”
Chen Chang Sheng was behind him, “It’s not right.”
Qi Jian said honestly, “Truly, it’s no good.”
“But it will be something of the future, I still need to win against you tonight.”
Tang Thirty Six’s shirt was floating slightly and his eyes brightened.
Qi Jian’s expression turned serious and he waited calmly.
