Atop the arena, the Marquis who claimed to be the Sword Pond Successor stood nearest to Lu Xun.
Because when Lu Xun jumped down from the high platform, he... took the Marquis's spot on the arena.
Hence, the two were on the same stage.
After the Marquis took a few steps forward, he wasn't too far from Lu Xun anymore.
The reason he could advance a few steps was simple, he activated his Sword Heart.
Out of the seventeen challengers, his cultivation base was the lowest, barely stepping into the Initial Realm.
Converting it into game character levels, he was nothing more than a level eleven.
Forget Lu Xun, even Little Chan could effortlessly suppress and defeat him with her higher cultivation base.
Despite having the lowest cultivation base, the Marquis was the only one among the seventeen challengers who had a Sword Heart.
