A powerful Ability that requires an extremely in-depth understanding of the Way of the Sword . This Ability grows in strength alongside the understanding of the user . This Ability allows one to infuse their swords techniques with energy from the environment, granting them incredible cutting power and might .

.

The description of the Ability was succinct and actually underplayed how powerful an Ability this was .

While many Abilities could be purchased from the Shop, there were also many Abilities that could not be purchased . Some of these could only be gained by raw talent and practice, using skill or luck .

Many Abilities that related to battle technique or skills often functioned like this .

Basic forms of those Abilities, like Basic Sword Mastery, could be purchased from the Shop . But anything above the basic levels had to slowly be trained, through constant practice and training .

Martial Artists from Earth found themselves at a very large advantage, especially those that were considered experts .

Sword Master was one of the strongest techniques commonly used for battle . There were 7 Stages to this Ability, each one, save for the last, split into 5 internal tiers .

Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, Master, Grandmaster, World Master, Supreme Master .

Thanks to his raw dedication and effort, as well as obsessive practice, Micheal had just barely managed to achieve the lowest tier of Grandmaster Sword Mastery .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

The strongest swordsman alive at the time of the final battle, the legendary French Sundering Swordmaster Bastien Amiot, had achieved the lowest tier of World Master Sword Mastery .

Bastien Amiot was a genius that had been studying the blade his entire life, including more than 45 years back on Earth . Micheal had been a regular 18 year old fresh out of highschool .

For him to reach the lowest tier of Grandmaster Sword Mastery, just a single, though full, stage behind the greatest swordsmen the Human Race had alive at the time, it could be considered a huge achievement . The frantic progress Micheal had made was incredible, enough to rank him among the 50,000 strongest living elites of the Human Race .

Alas, it wasn't enough in the end .

'But it will be this time . ' He thought, his eyes flas.h.i.+ng as he tossed the thought to the side, focusing on the present .

The Sword Mastery Ability allowed one to draw upon the ambient energy in the world around them, infusing it into their attacks .

Back on Earth, there were legends of masterful warriors that could split steel in two using a simple wooden branch . Sword Mastery made legends like that actually possible .

Basic Mastery allowed one to imbue their weapon with energy from the environment, making their blows heavier and more powerful .

Intermediate and Advanced were simply stronger forms of this, allowing one's weapon to carry with it a huge amount of force and cutting power . The increase in power between Basic and Intermediate, and Intermediate and Advanced was quite noticeable .

The Basic Sword Master Ability alone allowed one to step into the level of superhumans, able to slice through rock like b.u.t.ter . Intermediate allowed one to cut through steel . Advanced allowed one to cut through any and everything from Earth with ease, the materials there no longer able to hold up .

At Master Sword Mastery, one gained the ability to manipulate the energy they imbued into their sword, allowing one to extend a weapons range, or condense the energy, vastly increasing the power and impact a weapon held .

It was at this stage that one could call themselves a Swordmaster .

And at Micheal's current stage, Grandmaster Sword Mastery, one gained the ability that transformed sword users into lethal weapons of terrifying power .

The ability to send out long distance sword attacks imbued with energy, cutting through the air with terrible force .

'I only just reached this stage, just hours before the final battle happened…' Micheal observed, his eyes full of excitement as he looked over his status screen .

'Now that I have it again, I can actually test it out and use it to the fullest extent!'

He flicked his sword upward, slowly starting to draw upon the natural energy of the world . He felt invisible waves of power begin to concentrate around his sword .
