「Ten minutes later, in the Battle Network's simulated training ground.」
Qiao Zhiyao stood with a longsword in hand, her aura far more condensed than before.
After her breakthrough to the Martial Artist realm, the quantity and quality of her Qi and Blood had improved significantly. The faint red energy flowing along the edge of her sword was even more substantial.
Xu Wuyi stood empty-handed, not even having drawn a weapon.
"Are you looking down on me?" Qiao Zhiyao glared.
"No," Xu Wuyi said frankly. "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold back if I use a weapon."
Even though it was just a spar on the Battle Network, Xu Wuyi worried he'd defeat Qiao Zhiyao in a single blow, which would negate the whole point of a guided sparring session.
Qiao Zhiyao was speechless with frustration. Done with words, she flicked her longsword and her body followed its movement, transforming into a streak of light as she thrust forward.
