With every slash of the blade, the opponent stepped back.
Ji Xinghuo's momentum soared, quickly forcing his opponent to the edge of the platform, a fall from which would mean defeat.
"Ha!"
Knowing retreating further would spell certain loss, the opponent shouted, forcefully parried Ji Xinghuo's blade, and planted both feet at the edge of the platform.
The Long Stick swept horizontally, then stabbed forward, its head like a spear aiming for Ji Xinghuo's chest.
Ji Xinghuo shifted his body half a step to the side.
At the same time, his War Blade scraped along the Long Stick, its edge rubbing against the wood, Shock Force bursting forth, igniting a string of sparks, and slicing towards the opponent's hands.
The opponent decisively abandoned the Long Stick, letting it fall, and flashed to the side with Flash Step, avoiding the hand being slashed.
This Flash Step was very short, just over a meter.
