Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

Ken Ishikawa, who had his leech attack blocked, was sweating profusely.

His sword technique, honed over twenty years... was broken by the sword spirit after just one use?!

Seeing the shock that flashed across Ishikawa Ken's face, the sword spirit paused for a moment before explaining:

"The technique of unleashing multiple strikes on the same target in an instant... well, the idea is good, but unfortunately, that target is too easy to predict..."

"So all we need to do is block the path of the first attack."

"The perseverance to hone this skill over a long period of time is admirable, but to hone the skill only to destroy a mere inanimate object is extremely superficial!"

The sword spirit spoke without any restraint, calling Ishikawa-ryu's Buddhist sword technique a joke.

The truth is always a silent, sharp knife, cutting away at you with each stroke that hurts.

While Ishikawa Ken's Water-Severing Leech was certainly something in the sword spirit's eyes, if this move wasn't designed to sever the demon sword but rather a killing technique, then he wouldn't have been able to block it so easily...

To put it more bluntly: Ishikawa Ken's abacus beads actually hit his face...

After exchanging more than ten blows with Ishikawa Ken, he had completely seen through Ishikawa Ken...

"Your swordsmanship... is dead, and you... should also be dead."

As the sword spirit spoke, it raised the demon sword Hiruma high and then slashed down fiercely at Ishikawa Ken with extremely fast force.

Seeing this, Ken Ishikawa instinctively raised his sword to block, but his block was no match for the power of the demon sword.

click-

With a sound of metal breaking, the long sword in Ishikawa Ken's hand shattered instantly.

This is the second time.

During the battle with the demon sword Hirumaru, his sword broke twice; last time, the demon shattered his sword with a single blow.

This time, the Blade Spirit used only sword skills to fight him, but his sword still shattered...

"Down!"

Facing Ishikawa Ken, whose sword had already shattered, the sword spirit gave him no chance to catch his breath, and the next strike followed immediately, aimed straight at Ishikawa Ken's vitals.

This time they've really struck while you're down...

At that critical moment, four black beads flew to Ishikawa Ken's front, then unfolded at incredible speed, transforming into a barrier that blocked the attack...

"What...what is this?"

Upon seeing the bead, Zhang Chulan raised an eyebrow slightly, then looked at Ma Xianhong not far away.

Six-in-One Beads...

This thing was Old Ma's magical artifact, but most of them were destroyed in the battle that wiped out Biyou Village...

It's clear that these beads were remade by Old Ma after he returned to Biyou Village.

"Who's getting involved?"

Seeing that the Six Harmony Pearl in front of him had blocked his attack, the sword spirit shifted his gaze from Ishikawa Ken to his surroundings.

...

"Old Ma... well done, you didn't disgrace yourself. Go... show him what a god-like weapon refiner is all about."

Zhou Fengliu's voice reached the sword spirit's ears, causing the sword spirit's gaze to lock onto the white-haired man beside Zhou Fengliu.

At this moment, Ma Xianhong, instigated by Zhou Fengliu, frowned, then looked at Zhou Fengliu and said:

"Why am I the one who has to go first? Didn't you just tell me to block the attacks?"

"And... how come he's a god among weapon refiners? Don't talk nonsense."

Looking at Ma Xianhong's face, the sword spirit also spoke up: "You...you're my next opponent?"

"Forehead..."

Upon hearing the sword spirit using Feng Baobao's body say these words, the person involved, Ma, stroked his chin:

"It could be me, but it could also be him..."

He pointed to Zhou Fengliu beside him as he spoke.

In response to Ma Xianhong's words, Zhou Fengliu continued:

"Or maybe, we'll all go together..."

...

P.S.: I pray for everything as usual. Goodnight and sweet dreams to all my godfathers.

Chapter 532 Among a bunch of Tysons, would you choose Taro? (First Update)

"How about... you choose, one-on-one or a group fight?"

Zhou Fengliu handed the choice over to the sword spirit controlling Feng Baobao's body.

"A group fight means they all gang up on you. As for a one-on-one fight... that's easy, you fight several of them one-on-one."

"?"

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's unethical words, before the sword spirit could say anything, Ma Xianhong, standing beside him, spoke first, looking at Zhou Fengliu:

"You're so shameless..."

His phrase "shameless" has two meanings.

The first implication is that Zhou Fengliu, despite already being so strong, still needs to regulate the sword spirit...

The second meaning is an evaluation of Zhou Fengliu's decision to have them fight with a numerical advantage.

The question of whether it was a group fight or a one-on-one duel reminded him of his time in Biyou Village, when a few temporary workers from the All-Tong gang had ganged up on him in such an unsportsmanlike manner...

Thinking about this, Ma Xianhong stroked his chin, a question arising in his mind.

Shamelessness is a tradition among employees of Anycom?

...

When Zhou Fengliu asked whether it was a one-on-one fight or a group brawl, the naive sword spirit didn't care about such things.

Whether it's a one-on-one duel or a group fight, just find a swordsman to fight and that'll be fine.

The battle... was awesome!

He finally found a vessel willing to completely hand over control of his body, so he was definitely going to beat it to a pulp.

He glanced at the people present and then picked the one who was the most capable fighter.

Just you!

After selecting its target, Blade Spirit controlled Feng Baobao's body to rush towards Zhou Fengliu.

A slash broke through the airflow and swung towards Zhou Fengliu's location.

Faced with this fierce slash, Zhou Fengliu simply opened his palm, and an invisible stream of air instantly transformed into a large hand to block the slash.

"You sword spirit... you really have no manners."

Zhou Fengliu was quite helpless when he saw that the sword spirit ignored his rules of the game and even slashed him with a backhand strike.

"Alright... that works now, no need for one-on-one fights or group brawls."

Zhang Chulan stated that Blade & Soul's decision to choose Zhou Fengliu as their opponent is like picking Taro from a group of Tysons...

They really pick the best fighters...

and many more.

Zhang Chulan suddenly realized something and, seeing him look at Zhou Fengliu, cautiously reminded him:

"Brother Liu, take it easy... that's Bao'er's body on the other side..."

It's clear he was worried that Zhou Fengliu might not know his limits and could hurt Feng Baobao.

Although Feng Baobao's body is somewhat special, she recovers from injuries at a visible speed...

But... with so many people watching, if the secret of Feng Baobao's special constitution were to be discovered by someone with ulterior motives, it would certainly cause even more trouble.

"Then you go?"

Upon hearing Zhang Chulan's reminder, Zhou Fengliu gave Zhang Chulan a space to move.

"this..."

Caught off guard by Zhou Fengliu's question, Zhang Chulan was momentarily speechless, but he quickly responded:

"Brother Liu, you know me... my swordsmanship is terrible, I can't beat the sword spirit... as for using other methods, I can't cut the demon sword either. The strongest swordsman here is you, Brother Liu... you really have to handle this."

"Oh, right..."

Upon hearing Zhang Chulan's words, Zhou Fengliu realized that there was another strict requirement for slaying Hirumaru: it had to be done with a sword.

"Mr. Jay Chou... here's your sword."

Seeing this, Ishikawa Ken, who had already lost the battle, didn't say a word and presented a long sword from the side that was sheathed.

"..."

"I'm not used to this stuff..."

Zhou Fengliu did not accept the swords and knives that Ishikawa Ken presented...

In his opinion, Ishikawa Ken's sword had already broken twice, which was enough to show how unreliable the swords of the Ishikawa school were.

As he spoke, he casually used his Qi Transformation Horse technique to conjure a Qi sword.

This Qi sword is entirely grayish-white, and looks unremarkable, and in fact it is unremarkable... a pure Qi sword.

...

Looking at the sword spirit controlling Feng Baobao's body, Zhou Fengliu felt something was strange.

How come in the end, he's the one who cuts the demon sword?

It's really absurd, really. After going around in circles, there was escorting the demon sword and fighting against a new demon...

After finally managing to escort the demon sword back to the Sakura Kingdom, he ended up... having to complete the trial of the broken sword himself.
