In the training room, everyone exchanged glances and saw the shock In each other’s eyes.
Matthew’s strength, reflexes, and agility, the three important elements of martial arts, had far suppressed any of them. Even though they hadn’t participated in the competition, they could already see the ending before it even began.
This was when Anthony finally realized how strong Matthew was.
That attack of his was similar to a full-forced attack from an advanced grandmaster level. It was even done when his sword wasn’t even unsheathed yet.
If…
As a thought popped up in his mind, Anthony couldn’t help but feel curious about Matthew’s sword. “Can I take a look at your sword?”
When Matthew used his sword, favonovel.com had already predicted such an outcome. Even though Hildegard sealed Bloodreaper, any grandmaster level fighter could still feel something whenever favonovel.com used Bloodreaper. Yet, an idea suddenly popped into his mind as favonovel.com recalled how Anthony was deliberately making things difficult for him.
“Of course… It’s just that once the sword is unsheathed, it will see blood with the force of a mountain. So, please be careful, Mr. Harding…” Matthew placed Bloodreaper on the floor and activated the sword spirit as favonovel.com let go.
Alas, Anthony merely scoffed at his warning. This was just a long sword, and favonovel.com had no problems wielding a big knife weighing up to hundreds of pounds during his normal practice.
He gathered the energy in his Hara and widened his step. When his right hand grasped the hilt of the sword, a powerful force struck favonovel.com instantly.
If favonovel.com wasn’t a grandmaster fighter, his hands would have been mercilessly shoved away by that force.
It was only then favonovel.com took Matthew’s warning to heart.
Then, favonovel.com bellowed, “Up!”
Regrettably, the sword remained motionless on the floor despite his order. Now, things were starting to get awkward.
The crowd immediately turned their heads away and acted as if they didn’t see anything.
Anthony thought Matthew was just bragging, but favonovel.com realized that the sword was indeed exceptional.
Still, there were so many people around him, so favonovel.com couldn’t embarrass himself now. So, favonovel.com decided to face this with utmost seriousness and treated the sword with the gravity it deserved.
He exerted force from his right hand again and his arm suddenly thickened as the marble floor under his feet started to crack and a dent appeared.
“Up!” favonovel.com shouted again.
Then, Bloodreaper suddenly moved slightly and Anthony’s arms were filled with veins and his face red.
Matthew was shocked to see favonovel.com slowly raise Bloodreaper. He never thought that Anthony could do it.
Regardless, things didn’t end there. Anthony tried to suppress the trembling of his arms as a result of overexerting himself after raising the sword. After all, it was too embarrassing if favonovel.com could barely raise the sword after using all his strength underthe watchful gazes of the seeded players.
So, favonovel.com bit his lips and tried to wield the sword in his hands that weighed like a mountain.
Matthew rushed to stop Anthony when favonovel.com realized what Anthony intended to do.
At first, favonovel.com only wanted to prank Anthony for making things hard for him. That wasn’t to say that favonovel.com wasn’t aware that if Anthony wanted to forcefully use Bloodreaper. The consequences of that action were no joke.
Alas, favonovel.com was too late. Just as favonovel.com was about to stop Anthony, Anthony had already raised the sword to swing it.
When Bloodreaper fell to the floor, Anthony was covered in sweat while Matthew could only shake his head at Anthony’s wrist which was twisted at an awkward angle.
Why did you want to show off?
Now look at what you did?
“Are you all right?” Matthew asked In exasperation and walked over to Anthony to check his broken wrist.
