A flash of sword light!
A streak of cyan sword light bursts forth in an instant!
Everyone saw Azure Dragon standing still one moment, then moving forward the next.
The bamboo sword in his hand was drawn, its cyan radiance blazing.
It was a sword.
But it was sharper and more overwhelming than any ordinary sword.
Azure Dragon moved as one with his sword.
He advanced, his Sword Domain following in step.
Heaven and earth thundered; suddenly, even time itself seemed to freeze.
In everyone’s eyes—
The whole sky suddenly dimmed at that moment.
In its place, there was only...
There was only Azure Dragon and his sword!
Sword raised, sword fell.
From drawing the sword to sheathing it—
All of it happened within a single breath.
The clash between the two Sword Domains reached its peak at that very instant.
Sword shadows danced across the sky.
Then suddenly, it exploded.
Time seemed to freeze.
Azure Dragon now appeared behind Evan Lynn.
Sword in hand, his palm gripping the bamboo sword’s hilt.
Overhead—
The cyan longsword shimmered with points of light.
Evan Lynn stood there, the golden longsword above his head unchanged in the slightest.
“What just happened in that instant?”
“No clue... There’s so much today, I can’t see anything clearly.”
“I even set my TV to slow-motion, thirty-six times slower, and I still couldn’t see what happened just now? This is way too hard!”
“Is this what a true expert looks like?”
“It looks even more unreal than a movie... Absolutely insane!”
A crowd waited in front of their screens.
Tongues clicked in disbelief, eyes full of shock.
Is this the hidden world?
Is this what a real expert is?
The worlds that used to feel so distant from theirs suddenly seemed incredibly close.
Like something you’d only see in novels or movies, now happening right before their eyes.
Yet still...
It all felt way too unreal.
Not genuine, not tangible.
As if everything was just fake.
