The time for the sword fighting tournament arrived. At that time, I convinced myself that if I had to fight with my sword, I might need training. At which Ming asked, "Are you blind? You've trained yourself well in your younger years, why can't you remember anything?" I calmly told her, "Because of my leadership, I think I've forgotten what I learnt..." "Then, you should learn," Li told me. "The room over there will help you."

She pointed to the sword training room over there, fence training as well.

There, I trained myself with the ultimate glass sword, that possessed a magic power with that of the sirens. The divergent forces that came across it contrasted greatly with the deadly power of the fencing arrow and bow. That was why the sword power might be deadly.

When the day finally came, I got ready with my ultimate sword and my divergent force outfit. I needed to have a few words with Li, who at least became my sweetheart for these days onwards. I held her chin gently upright and whispered, "Don't worry about me. When I'm alive at least my divergent sword will send you a message." Li nodded.

The fight began at last in the sword arena, just outside our palace.

My main opponent was the ultimate sword fighter professional. As the fight started, the opponent rushed and brandished his own sword to my own hairpin, as if to remove it. Luckily, I started to remove the impulse. That was not actually a move, that action was utter garbage. Easily upset, the fighter grabbed me by the collar asking roughly, "This is not even your fight, understand? It's my fight too. The opponent should die...!"

I finally brandished my own divergent force sword but was indifferent as its power shot out of its core. 

"Hey! Keep that weapon away!" someone yelled angrily.

I didn't care and brandished my sword to the opponent.
