Silence consumes the arena as everyone holds their breath. Mors and Zhihui look at each other with serious eyes. Both knew the opponent is strong, but they still held the belief that they were stronger and will win the fight.
Mors is the first one to start, as he rushes towards Zhihui. With his [Bloody Sword] shining with a dark aura. As Mors gets closer to her, she stomps her feet into the ground, channeling her QI into it.
Pushing her QI into the land, she creates a large earth wall aimed at Mor's chest. When it comes to information, Mors had the upper hand. Unlike him, who finishes all the battles with one move. Zhihui liked playing with her food, using a lot of her moves to battle her opponents.
As such he knew what she was capable of, as the earth wall gets closer to him. He swings his sword down, channeling his QI through it. As metal meets earth, the sword easily wins. Cutting the wall in half. A simple phrase leaves Mor's lips.
"[Wars First Symphony]"
Mors said as he moves around Zhihui. His moves looked like a dancer, following a song no one could hear. Such weird movements made it hard for Zhihui to follow, losing visual on Mors for a second. As Mors appears behind her, he aims his black sword towards her neck. Not giving her enough time to react.
But as his sword got closer to her neck, it stops. Hitting an invisible wall, Mors sees a new form of her powers jump back. To give himself time and space. As Zhihui slowly turns around and faces him again. A smile on her face.
"Ah~ showing your real cards now?"
Mors said as he looks at Zhihui's smile slowly grew, she stomps her feet against the earth once again as she makes countless earth pillars appear around Mors. All the pillars aim for Mor's body. Mors tries to remember the lore of mythical arts as he dodges all the earth pillars.
Cutting them apart with his [Bloody Sword]. If he remembers correctly all mythical arts need a natural source. The only thing that makes high rank or stages of mythical martial arts different from the low ones, was the range of activation and the strength of the element.
But of course, as he thinks, Zhihui made her move. She takes a fast step backward, putting some more distance between herself and Mors. She waves her hands as sharp blades of wind appear in front of her, as she sends the blades flying towards Mors. As Mors sees this he smiles, he breaths in, and he dodges the wind blades with careful steps.
As the wind blades crash against the wall of the arena. Mors uses the sound of the collision as part of his symphony. As silence consumes the arena once again, it is time for a bass drop. Mors swings his sword down with all of his force. His QI explodes as it envelops the sword.
While normally he will let the sword reach the ground and end his attack. He can't forget the main characteristic of the Warrior Stage. That is to change the martial arts and make them truly unique.
His [Tsubame Gaeshi] only have the single motion of stopping halfway and shrinking back up with fast speed. But he needs to be close for that, what if he is at a distance? A different direction? As such Mors stops his sword sing halfway and swings all the up.
Zhihui looks at this with confused eyes, for she could not understand what Mors did. But with her sharp senses, build through countless years of battle. She dodges to the side. Using the air behind her feet to give herself a boost, as she lands on the ground she looks where she once stood.
In the area she was, a large visible slash could be seen floating in the air. As a piece of the air was cut off. A drop of sweat goes down her forehead as she looks at Mors. Who could be seen running towards her.
[Tsubame Gaeshi Rank 4->5]
'It must be a high stage martial art to be able to do that
She said to herself as she gathers the wind currents around her, making wind blades as she aims them at Mors. He once again started to dodge them with his dance-like movement.
"[Cutting Winds]?"
Mors said to her, taking her by surprise once again. How does he have such knowledge!? Everyone knew that [Heaven] stage skills are very rare, only large and powerful sects could hold some of these skills and their name. The information on any [Heaven] stage skill is heavily guarded.
She only got this skill after practicing it in this life, following the moves her cousin use to do in battle. But this movement of surprise was enough for Mors. As he swings his sword across Zhihui's chest. Drawing blood, as pain assaults her mind. Zhihui went into overdrive.
In her back, the red gem she got after self-reforming into a [Fire Scholar] started to shine. As five fireballs appear out of nowhere. The fireballs are sent towards Mor's body at freighting speeds, exploding as they come in contact with his skin. Sending both parties flying away from each other.
Zhihui uses her QI to control the earth beneath her feet. Providing some support and slowing her down. A large cloud of dirt and dust now stood where she and Mors stood a few seconds ago. She touches her open wound. The red blood painted her fingertips.
She looks at her bloody fingertips as she clicks her tongue. From Mor's surprising knowledge and deadly skills, she could not take this fight easily. She gathers her QI around herself, slowly making sharp winds appear. The water in the air started to gather around her open wound, only to find that she can't fully close it. As the bleeding continues.
The earth shakes and breaks under her feet, as bright blue fireballs appear in her hands. As the dust slowly settles down, Mors looks at the four elements surrounding her as he sighs, looks like he is dealing with an annoying opponent.
He waves his hands as he makes 50 bows and arrows appear, all aiming at her as he gets ready for round 2.
