"...You two--didn't you just say 'first level'?"
"I broke through." Pei Ye raised his sword, stood up and bowed, "Instructor, I would like to have a match with Brother Xiao Qiu first."
"...That's fine." The instructor replied, "Then let's have Xiao Qiu come up again."
It wouldn't take much time anyway.
Xiao Qiu returned to the stage without showing any signs of dissatisfaction.
Xiao Qiu held this youth in higher esteem, because although Zheng Dong's martial arts were a bit lacking, his cultivation was solidly at the Third Level, ranking him eighteenth in the great tournament on his first day at the Martial Arts Hall.
However, according to him, he was utterly unable to defend himself against this youngster's attacks, neither able to react in time nor resist effectively.
It seems that this youngster must also be of extraordinary talents, capable of bridging the gap between the First and Third Levels.
