Chapter 351 17 Years (5)
Tenmei Ryo smoothly wrapped his hand around the hilt of his sith Mio as the target of his blade His stance was masterful similar to what one would see in a textbook He held that position and was as still as a statue
“I never thought I’d be able to watch this duel in person”
“One of the 5 Heroes frohters in the present Who do you think is stronger?”
“Don’t you think the Sun Sould win? The fighting style itself already has the upper hand…”
“I’athered in twos and threes and took a spot in the schoolyard Perhaps the news had spread on the Community forums as well since it had become a major event with thousands of spectators
“Their level of focus is a[1] each other”
Reading an opponent was soht With just their sight, hearing, srasp their opponent’s capabilities But that hat people often said to make it seem fancy In simpler terms, they just stared each other down
The members of Sky Soul tilted their heads Ten it difficult to make a move
“The captain doesn’t see really deep breaths”
“Wait, I think his hands are shaking as well Do you think he’s nervous?”
“That’s impossible Since his opponent is his little sister, he’s probably concentrating so that he won’t hurt her”
They were idiots They were idiots who knew nothing Tenmei Ryo internally cursed his subordinates
‘You lot know nothing’
He had to put in great effort to cale of excite he had been waiting for this ht that he would never have the opportunity to fight her again After all, he cared a lot about his reputation, so he couldn’t provoke his younger sister
‘I airl in front of him
To others, she was the former Sword Saint or the Sky Phoenix
To others, she was an idol
To others, she was a Hero
But for Tenmei Ryo, she was a barrier
‘The first and last barrier I have ever encountered’
Tenmei Ryo slowly closed his eyes He suddenly remembered that day, and it was as clear as yesterday to hirounds, saying that she wanted to watch her brothers train
Holding a sword for the first time, she knocked her two older brothers doith a cheerful s day of my life’
She had never even learned any sword techniques, yet she defeated tordsmen with instinctive movements alone
After that, all the brotherly love Tenmei Ryo had for Mio dissipated He and his brother had always been revered as some of the most talented swordshth decades had passed since then, he would still occasionally dream about that day
‘I tried so hard to erase you’
He didn’t pay her any attention and tried to erase her very existence from his life
However, he failed Tenh the three nore it, it still haunted them
‘I wasenvious of his little sister He used those e force to train like a madman, but no matter how much effort he put into it, he could never cross the barrier of natural talent And so, he despaired
‘I ash all those erip tighter around the hilt of his sword There was no doubt in his mind—he would win
‘I won’t lose’
After Mio was trapped in the ice, he trained every single day without fail for the past 27 years and eventually surpassed his older brother He trusted his experience, and the design of his sword style gave hih every single Blue Moon Style technique’
In other words, he would win even though he didn’t knohat she would do Rationally, there was no way he could lose
“Come,” Tenmei Ryo said
“” Mio nodded softly and lowered her stance
The tension reached its peak In the silence, only the sound of the breeze blowing through the!
Their swords clashed
“W-woah!”
“Holy shi+t Are you sure she was trapped in ice for 26 years?”
The onlookers let out sinably fast
‘She’s a genius A true genius’ One of the onlookers, Seo Jun-Ho, nodded slowly There was only one reason he always called her a genius
‘Be Cause She’s Flaw Less’
Normally, when Players leveled up, raised their stats, or equipped nice gear, there would be an immediate sense of disharmony Their mind and body would feel a disparity between the that not even I have been able to overcome’
However, Mio was an exception It didn’t matter if her stats increased or decreased because she was born with the natural ability to bring her body to the optieniuses could achieve, even if they trained
‘It’s a terrifying talent’
- Claang!
Mio’s blade seemed to embroider the air Every ti flowers
“Heh” Tenh as he pushed aside each of her strikes
‘I see it I can see it! This is different from the past’
He could clearly see the path of each of her strikes No matter how fast the attacks were and noas he kne to counter them, he couldn’t be hit
“You’re lucky Since so , you will not lose your life,” he said
“”
Fwooosh!+
Tened around him like wildfire
‘I can’t kill her or cut off a limb anyway’
Those who didn’t knohere Mio stood in their clan would definitely say that he was too cruel So, he quickly chose a different direction He chose to use this situation as a tool to raise his honor
‘I’ll finish it in an instant’
The Red Sun Style heated up the entire schoolyard
“Hm, so this is the Tenmei Clan’s sword technique The Red Sun Style, was it?”
“Even if they don’t have an elemental skill… The heat rivals that of a real fire”
“I can finally see why they’re known as the greatest clan of swordsmen”
The scariest part of the Red Sun Style was the way it overwhel it Like the actual sun, the opponent’s vision would grow di!
Mio blocked Tenmei Ryo’s strike and mohost
‘Impressive’ Tenmei Ryo’s eyes narrowed She didn’t actually disappear Rather, she lowered her stance so low that she reached the ground
‘The Blue Moon Style’s second technique The Sword of the S’
It was a fine technique The Sword of the S’s killing poas great, and if used on an opponent who didn’t know any better, it would guarantee victory
‘But I am the second son of the Tenle technique Mio had Tenhtly slid one of his feet back and readied hi’
Pah!
Mio kicked off of the dirt and charged hiround She applied the technique in an extre water
‘!’
She was fast
It was just for a ure flickered
‘You fool Pull yourself together’
He wouldn’t lose just because he let his guard down Tenmei Ryo sharpened his focus and read the trajectory of her sword before quickly swinging his blade The Sword of the Sas a technique that drew the opponent’s eyes to the ground while the actual attack would come from above
‘Her technique is impressive… But that is all’
Tenmei Ryo already kne to counter it He used the Red Sun Style’s third technique, Bowing Cloud, and his lips started to curl up as he grasped his guaranteed victory
