"Oh... all right, but so what?" Xing'er looked utterly clueless. She had no idea how formidable the people her age in Sky City were.
Those words naturally angered Shen Xiaoyu so much that he rolled up his sleeves. "It means I'm really powerful, all right! Come on, aren't you always calling yourself my martial granduncle? Let's compare! I'll suppress my cultivation, and we'll purely compare swordsmanship!"
"Sure, I'd like to know just how powerful the person who claims to sweep through everyone his age in Sky City really is." Xing'er was eager to try. Although she wasn't fond of fighting, after today's two matches, she had grown very confident in her swordsmanship. Now that she had encountered a youth who claimed to sweep through everyone his age in Sky City, she couldn't help itching to test herself and see just how far her swordsmanship could reach.
"Heh heh, interesting!" A slender longsword immediately appeared in Shen Xiaoyu's hand. It looked nothing like Shen Jinzhao's legacy. Shen Jinzhao was a hero of Sky City who used a steady, balanced sword, the very model of Sky City. Who would have thought that this child would use a rapier?
That was rather strange.
"Your father uses a three-foot sword, yet you use a four-and-a-half-foot rapier. Just who did you study under?" Xing'er hurriedly asked.
I used a sword over four feet long. The Sword of Laws was this type; it was balanced in every aspect. Yet this kid actually used a four-and-a-half-foot sword, which could be considered slender and long. As the saying went, "An inch shorter, an inch more perilous." Such an unusual blade was indeed rarely seen.
"If you beat me, I'll tell you!" Shen Xiaoyu chuckled. Then he waved his sword, taking up a stance as he waited for Xing'er
