Chapter 42: The End (Part Two)

"Clang!"

"Crash."

"Now that's exhilarating."

The grating sound of blades clashing one after another was enough to make one's ears hurt, as the Mandarin Duck Halberd hooked onto the Butterfly Dual Blades. The sharp weapons shifted back and forth between the two fighters, one moment the halberd lingering near Xu Tianci's throat, the next the dual blades grazing Li Yan's heart, both moves highly dangerous. Sweat beaded at the tip of both their noses.

After about four or five exchanges, Li Yan found himself at a disadvantage. His wrist had been injured, and his movements with the circular blade became increasingly stiff.

The Mandarin Duck Halberd, with its long and large hooked shape, excels at entangling and locking swords and other bladed weapons. Although it wasn't at a disadvantage against the Butterfly Dual Blades, it couldn't be considered to have the upper hand either.
