With each exchange of their weapons, sparks flew, a combination of metal and lightning. Devotion and Aldrin were both going all out now, Devotion fighting to kill, and Aldrin fighting to survive.
This was a true battle between experts!
Well, experts was a strong word to use, especially for Devotion. He'd only been cultivating for about a year now, after all. He had a lot to learn.
For example, he had to learn to not put his full power into each swing, like he was currently doing. Aldrin was easily dodging these slow, clunky attacks, leaving Devotion with barely enough time to block his counters. If this kept up, Devotion would not last much longer.
"Calm down, Devotion! What has come over you?" Aldrin attempted to reason once more. Devotion's eyes were now covered in those lightning runes, and Devotion began to let them take control.
