Having severely injured Steward Qi, Zhang Xiaohua ceased his attack and turned his attention elsewhere. The soldiers nearby, who were just victims of Qi Steward's torment, would not miss such a joyful opportunity to kick someone while they're down. They swarmed towards the fallen, cutting him down.
After several exchanges, Zhang Xiaohua had defeated the strongest opponents. Behind him was a group of soldiers waiting to take advantage of the situation. This, this was the style of a master! A single sword strike leaving the opponent incapable of retaliation, then discarding them and moving on to the next tough opponent, allowing others to take the credit for capturing the weakened foe. Anyone would be willing to follow such a method.
