No matter how much Oko had grown, Fente could always sense a certain pattern in her movements and techniques.
It was a pattern buried deep within the foundation of a person's soul, one that could never be erased throughout an entire lifetime.
Moreover, Fente himself possessed top-tier physical and mental talent, a wealth of experience accumulated over the years, and the solid foundation of having reached the fifth Nightmare realm earlier than Oko.
Therefore, no matter how terrifying the strength Oko displayed, no matter how her speed and agility now seemed faintly poised to surpass Fente's, Fente, who possessed all these formidable advantages, remained calm and steady as he held his ground against Oko's storm-like barrage of attacks from beginning to end.
Thus, in less than three short minutes, one human and one insect fought from the sky to the ground, then from the ground back into the sky, clashing for well over hundreds of thousands of exchanges in one breath!
During that time, every lethal strike Oko aimed at a vital point was either evaded by Fente with a flash of his body or blocked by his sword formation.
After such a prolonged and fierce collision of blades, the swords in both their hands naturally could not escape shattering and breaking apart.
