Condensing spiritual power into physical form—the hallmark of the Fifth Tier!
Although Yang Haohan had said he would suppress his strength, that was all he had suppressed. He had not restricted the abilities of his higher ranks.
Of course, those could not be suppressed anyway. It was simply a matter of whether he chose to use them.
His light sword slashed out, sending a seemingly simple yet terrifyingly powerful blade of energy toward Yang Tian.
Yang Tian's expression turned grave. He knew how strong his opponent was-a ninth-rank Divine Seal Knight!
Looks like I need to give this everything I've got!
This was only the beginning. Once Yang Tian learned those Retribution skills, everything would change dramatically.
Aura of Faith!
Simple Light Shield!
He unleashed two second-rank skills at once!
Yang Haohan was using strength equal to his, and Yang Tian finally managed to block the attack with great difficulty.
He retreated several steps, the spiritual power within him surging rapidly as it replenished itself.
Just one simple strike had been this terrifying.
Even though his opponent had already suppressed his strength.
Yang Tian thought for a moment. "Staying on the defensive isn't much good!"
Then he switched from defense to offense!
Pure White Blade, Thrust!
He unleashed both skills, swiftly attacking Yang Haohan.

"You little rascal, you really are impatient!"
"But rather than just taking a beating, attacking is the best defense!"
A smile touched Yang Haohan's aged eyes, and he began blocking, using nothing more than simple parries.
Clang, clang, clang!
A series of metallic clashes rang out, though only Yang Haohan and Yang Tian were there to appreciate those subtle sounds.
"Lightning Electric Thrust!"
