Deyi was a famous sword of All-Under-Heaven, hidden in the palace of Great Wei.
The Emperor of Wei had gifted this sword to Yan Shaofei, making his expectations for him plain as day.
Though Yan Shaofei was a wandering swordsman, he had bested all his rivals in Wei. He had even made a name for himself as "Deyi" before All-Under-Heaven at River Viewing Terrace. He was certainly worthy of being called a prodigy.
At that very moment, he poured Red Lotus Karma Fire into his sword, then borrowed Zhongshan Weisun's Dragon-Sparrow Soldier Kill to "wash" away the red lotus, revealing the sword's true nature.
Then he sent a sword thrust straight forward.
Washed clean of all ornament, like awakening from a dream.
This was a sword that shone straight into the heart. It was also a sword of peerless brilliance.
Judging by this sword alone, it was almost no inferior to the Karma Blade Technique Gan Chang'an had unleashed!
But Zhongshan Weisun yielded not an inch.
Dragon-Sparrow Soldier Kill and Sword Picks Red Lotus were both peerless killing techniques. When they collided, they scattered across the sky.
Yan Shaofei had managed to thrust out the "Deyi" sword, returning to its true nature, from amid the "Falling Flowers." He had indeed gained the initiative by a step.
But that did not prove anything.
It was simply that this sword was more suited to the moment. Nothing more.
His fist was stronger!
In this world of flowers and blood, Yan Shaofei strode toward him.
Facing this gallant swordsman, and his Deyi Sword.
Zhongshan Weisun's fist "swelled."
More precisely, surging Soldier Sha enveloped his fist. It flowed like water, surged like waves, and even... wrapped around his entire body.
The fierce Soldier Sha surged, then contracted in an instant, condensing into solid form.
