"Father, you don't have to go easy on me!"
Jiang Xiaobai looked at the hand Jiang Jingcheng held behind his back and smiled helplessly.
"Enough nonsense. Come at me!"
Jiang Jingcheng snorted.
"All right. Since you insist, Father, then I... won't hold back!"
The corners of Jiang Xiaobai's mouth lifted. As his words fell, he sprang into motion.
With Nine Wind-Steps, Jiang Xiaobai reached Jiang Jingcheng in a single breath.
Hmm?
Jiang Jingcheng froze briefly, surprise flashing across his face.
What incredible speed!
Where did this brat learn footwork like that?!
As that thought crossed his mind, the World’s Number One Blade in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand slashed straight toward him.
Jiang Jingcheng came back to his senses and shook his head.
Yes, his footwork was good.
But that bladework... was painful to watch!
Jiang Jingcheng immediately raised his right hand, sending his great blade forward with a whistle of cleaved air.
Clang!
The instant the two blades collided, a crisp ring echoed throughout the courtyard.
At that moment, the hidden edge force within Jiang Xiaobai surged into action.
Five layers of hidden edge force stacked atop one another.
Boom!
Jiang Jingcheng's right hand went violently numb. His great blade shuddered fiercely and flew from his grip.
But it had barely traveled three inches before Jiang Jingcheng drew upon his internal energy and pulled it straight back.
Even so, Jiang Jingcheng's expression changed.
What powerful hidden force!
Even more astonishing was that the aura erupting from Jiang Xiaobai had indeed reached the sixth rank.
Shocked, Jiang Jingcheng no longer dared to be overconfident. With a cold snort, he unleashed his seventh-grade power.
Bang!
Jiang Xiaobai felt an overwhelming force sweep toward him along his blade, driving him backward.
He retreated seven or eight steps before barely managing to stop.
"Good, good!"
