Liu Hongbo: smirks Have you truly devoured the scrolls, or merely nibbled at their edges, my eager apprentice?
If by that silly question you are asking if I have memorized every single text, even the numbered lines. I indeed have.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? And how long did it take you to memorize all that?
smirks Just two weeks, huh? That's impressive, my young prodigy. But tell me, have you put those skills into practice? Have you tested them in the heat of battle?
I have tested them with these guards. I have killed them many times.
narrows his eyes Killed them many times, you say? And how many guards are there in total?
laughs sarcastically Hahaha! So you've eliminated a mere handful of guards? Hardly impressive, my young warrior. Tell me, have you ever faced a true adversary?
leans back, smirking Oh, really? And how did that turn out? Did you emerge victorious, or did your opponent best you?
There was no winner because I spared with an AI simulated avatar.
rolls his eyes An AI simulated avatar, you say? How quaint. Well, my young apprentice, let me remind you that battling a machine is no feat at all.
stands up, pacing around Very well, my young warrior. If you wish to prove your worth, then show me what you can do against a real opponent.
grabs his sword and unsheathes it Prepare yourself, Yasha. We shall engage in a duel, and I will test your mettle.
takes a fighting stance, readying himself for the duel Remember, Yasha, this isn't just any ordinary duel. It's a test of your skills, your strategy, and your prowess.
During the duel, Liu Hongbo gets distracted by his own arrogance and gets wounded by MoonbeamGlider's unexpected move.
