Evan approached the barrier and swung his sword unremarkably. The tips of his sword glimmered a bright purple, imbued with the full power of his Blade Master skill crystal. The attack struck the defensive shield that enveloped Darian, cutting through it with ease as if it were a knife slicing through soft butter.
What happened next caused the spectators to stand up in disbelief.
"That's impossible! How could he slice through that shield like it's nothing?"
"I'm almost a hundred years old, but I've never seen anything like this before!"
"I can hardly fathom it! How could this even be possible? Ancestor Darian's defensive shield is renowned as one of the most robust defensive techniques in the empire, yet it was sliced apart as though it were nothing more than a mere breeze!"
"It's simply incomprehensible."
