The Union of Man and Sword

Yu Nianzhen took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

With the exhale, his demeanour changed, and his aura converged.

Seeing this, Yu Shi frowned.

Although he didn't take Yu Nianzhen seriously, his nature was cautious.

Rather than fail due to arrogance, he preferred to use his full strength to block the full-strength blow of the lower-level swordsman.

As such, Yu Shi mobilised his qi and meticulously strengthened his defence.

A moment later, his crystal defence thickened from one centimetre to five centimetres.

'This is my limit.' He thought, but a small smile curled his lips.

'If he breaks through this defence, it will be my loss.' 

However, Yu Shi didn't really think he would lose.

On the other side, Yu Nianzhen held his wooden sword in front of his body.

Ordinarily, he usually used his right hand, but this time, both hands held the sword hilt with the blade tip pointing to the sky.
