The Heavenly Tiger Swordsman
Legendary Young Swordsman

About two hundred years ago the continent of the Two Stars became an area of endless warfare that lasted a very long time, where the war covered various circles from warriors to ordinary people who served for their emperor.

The war itself occurred due to the struggle for self-training resources for swordsmen who were increasingly rare, making various parties from martial sects to empires fight with each other.

Everything became more chaotic when the war did not stop until decades later, the dwindling resources on the continent of the Two Stars made the war not subside even worse.

The warriors who expected to grow stronger with resources, as well as the empire who wanted to solidify their dominance by obtaining similar resources to strengthen the swordsmen on their side. Making the situation seem hopeless, like the war will never end until one of the two sides disappears.

That was initially, until a nameless young swordsman appeared. Where his presence managed to shake the entire continent with its power that could be said to be very unreasonable.

The young warrior was not siding on any side between the martial sects where the swordsman was or the empire, making the originally steady map of power increasingly faltering.

Getting threats and criticism from various parties, did not make the young swordsman tremble. Where the young swordsman kept moving according to his heart, which is to become an enemy for each of them the group who are still stubbornly choose the path of war.

No matter whether it was a martial sect or an empire even though it managed to press down the young swordsman with its strength, making tens of thousands of swordsman lives soar under its sword swing.

“Keep at war, so long as you will still see me as a nightmare in your war."

A word that the young swordsman almost always spoke after slaughtering so many lives in the midst of the battle between the empire against the group of martial sects.

The presence of young warriors who almost certainly always harmed both sides of either the empire or the collection of martial sects, making the two sides finally decided to cooperate first with the aim of getting rid of the young swordsman before continuing the battle that occurred between them.

Where finally gathered quite a number of great warriors from the martial sect or empire under the name of the Alliance who were ready to become swords to get rid of the young swordsman, in other words, it took away the life of the young warrior.

Clankk!

Ctinkk!

Ctankk!

A loud voice rang out from the many weapons clashing, giving rise to the gripping atmosphere filling the area around the fight between the Alliance swordsman against the young swordsman.

Where around hundreds of great warriors from the Alliance, used their entire abilities to take down one young swordsman who was their target.

The great battle itself occurred from morning until the next morning until the winner was finally found, where on top of the pile of bodies of the victims of the fight had stood a young warrior whose entire body had been covered with blood.

“Haha, weak. Disappointingly, come to me at any time then I will gladly welcome you."

A young swordsman with a wide smile that instilled horror for every Alliance swordsman who saw him.

Time passed, where after the final fight between the great warriors of the Alliance against a young swordsman. Everything that happened after that gradually improved for the continent of the Two Stars.

Both the martial sect and the empire even though their cooperation had ended, it had now started as if agreeing to no longer fight with each other. Where each of them, began to choose to develop their strength and influence rather than doing prolonged warfare that seemed endless.

Even though it is only visible from the outside, because what happens inside in fact they only do that to prepare themselves until later the young swordsman returns to show himself. Where they do not want to once again be defeated by the young swordsman.

“The Heavenly Tiger Sword Swordsman."

That is how the young swordsman was known, because of his tiger-like ferocity especially when trying to stab his enemy.

Time passed by so fast that it did not feel like two hundred years had passed since the last time the Heavenly Tiger Swordsman appeared, where in that period of time the name of the Heavenly Tiger Swordsman began to slowly escape from the memory of everyone until it seemed to disappear every story like the Heavenly Tiger Swordsman himself.

On a hilltop that is very very far from the settlement, the, a man who was seen in his early twenties was sitting quietly with his eyes closed no matter how the wind was strong enough to hit his face.

Until the moment the man opened his eyes, immediately two dark blue eyeballs followed by the look of the eyes that showed a very impression related to indifference.

The man's face has a pale hue, followed by long hair that has a similar color to his eyes make the man's good looks more visible and attached to every one of anyone who has ever seen it.

Uhuk!!!

The man with blood flowed from the edge of his lips right after opening his eyes, where his expression was very much if the man was in such pain.

“After such a long time, even the deep wounds from the battle marks had not yet healed. It would be dangerous for me if the warriors from the Alliance found me," the man said slightly worriedly.

The man himself seemed confused afterwards, never expecting that it would turn out to be that difficult to heal the deep wounds he had suffered even after meditating for quite a long time with all sorts of resources as his support.

“I should try to find another way to heal this wound, but before that how long have I been meditating?" he said full of question marks.

The man immediately got up from his seat before walking down the hillside terrain to get away from there, intending to find an answer to his curiosity.

Hao Zhao was the name of the man, who was better known as the Heavenly Tiger Swordsman in the martial world of the Two Stars continent.

True, he is a legendary young swordsman whose name was so jarring two hundred years ago. Where Hao Zhao was unconscious, if his meditation had lasted for two hundred years from when Hao Zhao first tried to heal his wounds by meditating.

Where in that period of time, it was clear that everything had changed was so different from what was in Hao Zhao's memory.

“What? Why do I keep walking around? From what I remember it shouldn't be far from here there's a village, why don't I find it too?"

Hao Zhao was confused at that time about what was really going on, because it was not unusual for Hao Zhao to be confused like that just to find a place that was normally very easy for him.

“My intention is strong, so there's no way I'm going to get lost, right?"

Hao Zhao continued to try to find the greatest possibility of what he was really going through, until suddenly there were some people with axes in their hands emerging from behind the bush blocking Hao Zhao's path.

“Hey, Boy. Give up your treasure or you die!" exclaimed one of them, already brandishing his axe towards Hao Zhao.
