Hao Zhao and Yue Yie had just come out of the Fallen Dahan city that day, where the two wanted to find the right place to train together without causing any unnecessary fuss given the fairly dense city of Dahan Autumn.
Indeed Hao Zhao had just been asked by Yue Yie to help him practice the sword with match practice, in order to prepare for Yue Yie to take part in the Hero Seed tournament in the capital which was only a few months left.
“What if it's here only? It seems like this place is already quite far from the city of Dahan Gutur," Hao Zhao said, when around it there was only a stretch of grass that was so suitable for Yue Yie to practice swords.
“If Young Master Zhao is comfortable here, then I can only say yes," Yue Yie said, after pulling the sword that was almost always sheathed on his waist.
Hao Zhao only nodded slowly in response, after which retrieving the wooden sword from his s.p.a.ce ring.
Yue Yie immediately frowned at the sight, where she felt that Hao Zhao did not take her request too seriously by taking out such a sword when she even used her main sword.
“Young Master Zhao, I understand you are much stronger than me, but isn't it a little excessive to take me lightly so far?" asked Yue Yie.
Yue Yie actually somewhat disagreed having to practice the sword under Hao Zhao's guidance like that, considering that she was one of the geniuses whose name was also quite well known in the martial world.
Even so all of these things were ordered directly by Yang Gao making Yue Yie finally only able to accept, now that he had tried his best to suppress his pride to be willing to be trained by Hao Zhao who was still the same age as him, Yue Yie saw Hao Zhao as not taking him seriously certainly made Yue Yie annoyed.
Hao Zhao realized that, however, Hao Zhao also understood how high the pride of someone who was a child had received so many compliments like Yue Yie.
Where Hao Zhao wanted to use this opportunity to make Yue Yie understand, if all the praise that Yue Yie had received would not at all help her in a fight, it would not help her at all, moreover, it helped him develop in sword mastery.
“Yie, I used this wooden sword to give you more chances," Hao Zhao said with a flat face.
“Chance? But this match practice I asked to do to add to my fighting experience with the sword, how can this match practice be useful if Young Master Zhao's wooden sword breaks immediately upon meeting my sword?" Yue Yie had such thoughts not without reason, as indeed her sword was not an ordinary sword but rather a sword of quite a high level that was forged with special materials.
Now his sword must face the wooden sword? Yue Yie would not be surprised if Hao Zhao's wooden sword would instantly shatter into pieces after clashing with him.
Hao Zhao heard Yue Yie's remark immediately chuckling, Hao Zhao, not at all think the thing that Yue Yie just said would become a reality because it was not that easy even for every opponent first could make his sword damage when he used a twig even as a sword.
“Young Master Zhao?" Yue Yie with her cheeks that had bloated, was obviously annoyed to hear Hao Zhao laugh at her.
“Oh, sorry. Yie, you're a High-level Refining swordsman, aren't you?" ask Hao Zhao.
Yue Yie heard that immediately nodded in agreement. Thinking Hao Zhao would flout his level of strength, soon Yue Yie explained if for young swordsmen his level of strength was already so high.
“Being a High-Purification Swordsman at my age has been amazing Young Master Zhao, so please don't compare me to the level of unreasonable power you have," Yue Yie with a peeved shout.
“No, I know. That's exactly what I want to give you some useful things for the tournament" Hao Zhao said.
“Some useful things ... with that sword?" yue Yie asked, still unable to accept having to face Hao Zhao who was like not having the slightest desire to help him develop in the sword.
“What's really why? Now let me show you, how to win against an enemy who is at a level of strength equivalent to yours no matter what the weapon," Hao Zhao said while suppressing his level of strength on par with Yue Yie.
Yue Yie realized that it was not a pleasure to just grow annoyed, how not if it meant that the amount of inner strength that Hao Zhao could use would be more or less the same as her, how not if it meant that the amount of inner strength that Hao Zhao could use would be more or less the same as her, hao Zhao's mark would not take the slightest advantage of his level of strength as a Soul swordsman.
Sound good? Perhaps, but not for the great Yue Yie with such high pride as a genius.
“Why? Did you undo your intention to practice swords with me? I remember you saying Uncle Gao asked for this, is it okay if you cancel it?" Hao Zhao with a small smile, had already raised the wooden sword in his hand ready at any time to welcome Yue Yie's attack.
“Ishhh, I hate to see you smile like that Young Master Zhao!" yue Yie exclaimed, before jumping with her sword trying to lung at Hao Zhao.
Hao Zhao only chuckled after, not thinking his lure at Yue Yie would work out quite easily like that.
“If my guess had not missed, Yie would have felt so stepped on with all of this. Even so, I have no other choice to make Yie understand, if the fight is not only as good as what the sword is also as high as what the level of power of the sword holder," mumbled Hao Zhao before stepping slowly to welcome Yue Yie.
Yue Yie had already swung her sword back then, where the swing of the sword immediately Hao Zhao greeted without hesitation after having had time to drain a bit of power in there.
An exchange of difficult attacks occurred, in which Yue Yie was the one who had to step back afterwards.
Hao Zhao simply stood in his place, not budging in the slightest after the exchange of attacks.
“See? The wooden sword in my hand still seems fine, do you now understand that the level of the weapon is not something that should be defeated?" hao Zhao asked, revealing the wooden sword in his hand.
Yue Yie was surprised to see this, glancing at the sword in her hand, further surprised Yue Yie to realize that there were similar cracks of several hair strands there.
“Ba— how can?" yue Yie asked, looking at Hao Zhao in disbelief.
Hao Zhao only shook his head slowly looking at Yue Yie's surprised face, before saying, “Of course you can, as long as you understand the weapon you are using whether it is a sword or anything ... then you can make your weapons much stronger than they should be."
Yue Yie was only fixated on hearing Hao Zhao's words, obviously the reason for that was because Yue Yie simply did not understand what Hao Zhao was trying to convey.
“Easy if you can already understand the weapons you use, then even though it is a weapon that is not worth it once will be able to turn out to be decent, then even if it is not worth it, the already decent ones will be able to turn out good while the already good ones will be able to turn out to be even better. Keep it that way until next ...."
Yue Yie heard it immediately glanced at the wooden sword in Hao Zhao's hand, where Hao Zhao noticed it immediately chuckled.
“True, this sword was probably when you found out I would use it to practice matchmaking with you, you think I underestimated you because you feel this sword is not worth it compared to the sword you use, but the fact is?" Hao Zhao raised his eyebrows with a grin, hoping that Yue Yie could understand the intent of his actions.
