Sword Rule

Ye Chen's battle with Star Sword Marquis could be said to have exceeded the expectations of most people. They had never imagined that after their exchange, Star Sword Marquis would be the one at a disadvantage. Star Sword Marquis's Seven Stars Assassination Swordplay was undeniably powerful. If it had been any swordsman other than Snow Sword Marquis or Ye Chen, they would likely have struggled just to receive the first strike.

Yet Ye Chen seemed to be someone who created miracles. He took the first strike as easily as eating and drinking, successfully blocked the second without suffering the slightest injury, and neutralized the third with the Vibrating Sword Technique. The fourth strike had not even been unleashed before it was forcibly interrupted by immense sword pressure. This was the turning point, and the beginning of Star Sword Marquis's disadvantage.

Everyone present had to admit that they had underestimated Ye Chen. Ye Chen's swordplay was indeed not as dazzling as Snow Sword Marquis's, nor did it possess Star Sword Marquis's chilling killing intent. But his swordplay had always been efficient. It did not need to be dazzling, nor did it need to brim with killing intent. I can catch your sword and injure you—that is enough.

It could be said that Ye Chen's swordplay had cast away all unnecessary things, leaving behind only the purest essence.

His sword path was different from everyone else's.

But without question, his swordplay was formidable. His insight and reaction speed were also top-notch. To deal with him, one could only rely on absolute strength or an overwhelmingly powerful killing move. Everything else was useless.

Hearing Star Sword Marquis say that he would use the fifth strike of the Seven Stars Assassination Swordplay, everyone turned their gaze toward Ye Chen, wondering how he would respond.
