"You'll defeat me? I'll look forward to it," Yuan calmly responded to the Holy Sword King's aggression.
The Sword Empress merely shook her head in silence. Although she wanted to smack some sense into the Holy Sword King's head, there was also no guarantee that Yuan would win the Sword Emperor Qualifications just because his Supreme Sword Aura was stronger.
The qualifications tested more than just the strength of one's Supreme Sword Aura. It also evaluated the swordmaster's skill, versatility, and overall mastery of their swordsmanship. After all, becoming a Sword Emperor demanded more than raw power, and only the most refined and knowledgeable swordmasters could earn such a prestigious title.
The Holy Sword Maiden silently watched the events unfold before her, her eyes staring at Yuan, feeling like she'd met him before, but she couldn't remember when. Of course, she had no idea that the man before her was Yuan, the person she'd given her sword badge to.
