Within the Starry Sky Fragment, the first true clash erupted. Under the watchful eyes of a hundred thousand cultivators, Lu Ye and Missing Moon's saber and ruler collided, their Dao Power bursting forth.
Since he could roughly gauge Missing Moon's strength, Lu Ye used around two hundred and eighty strands of power this time.
That was undoubtedly slightly stronger than Missing Moon.
Thus, the moment they clashed, Missing Moon sensed something was wrong.
Feeling the Dao Power transmitted through the other party's long saber, his expression grew even more solemn.
He had never seen a Merging Dao Sixth Layer this strong. Instinctively, he glanced at the Crag Mountain Saber in Lu Ye's hand.
He had clearly mistaken it for a treasure of the same category, and one nurtured to an exceptionally high degree at that. Otherwise, there was no reason a Sixth Layer cultivator could contend with him in raw strength.
After a momentary deadlock came a dazzling barrage of attacks.
Missing Moon had earned his reputation in the Death Match Arena through more than just his own strength. His combat experience was extraordinarily rich, and his techniques had reached a marvelous, almost supernatural level.
His greatest achievement had been defeating a stronger opponent and beheading a Merging Dao Peak cultivator. That was the true source of his fame.
So he was very confident. There was no way such a young-looking fellow could match him in combat techniques. Even if the other party's true age was not as young as he appeared, Missing Moon's cultivation career had certainly been longer.
But he soon discovered that he was wrong. After exchanging blows, he found his opponent flawless in both attack and defense. This undoubtedly showed that in combat experience and technique, his opponent was not inferior to him in the slightest.
