The peak of Glidewing Mountain went completely quiet. Everyone looked around in shock.
The fight between Leander and Grayson was over–one had lived, the other had died. No one expected the sword master from Jesund to suddenly step in, though.
“Tsaric p>
Roman and the others stopped where they were, all stunned.
Leander had just beaten Grayson and killed him on the spot. His energy was at its peak–there was no stopping him now. Tsaric, a legendary sword master, should’ve known exactly what it meant to challenge Leander at a time like this.
However, Tsaric still stepped forward and made it clear he was taking a stand against Leander. No one could understand why.
“Master p>
Lionel stood off to the side of the cliff, his eyes dim. He knew full well that stepping in now meant Tsaric was at a huge disadvantage. There was a seventy percent chance he would end up like Grayson, yet Tsaric still chose to fight.
Only then did Lionel fully realize how obsessed and determined his master was in chasing the Transcendent Realm.
“Still wanting to fight p>
Yvette and Madeline looked over, their hearts tightening again. They thought everything had ended once Leander won, but now, something else was happening.
After a short moment of shock, the whole crowd burst into loud gasps.
No one had expected that today, on Glidewing Mountain, they wouldn’t just see a match between two of Astria’s top fighters. Now, they were about to watch a showdown between the strongest martial artists from Astria and Jesund.
More than ten years ago, Tsaric had already made a name for himself in Astria. He had defeated countless experts, but he came and left so quickly that most people never got to see him fight in person. Now, they finally had the chance.
Leander had killed Grayson and had become a symbol of Astria’s martial arts world. Tsaric, known as the Sword Master of Jesund, was a major figure in Jesundese martial arts.
A fight between them was even more exciting than the last, firing everyone up.

Leander stood with his hands behind his back, a slight, curious smile. “Grayson died by my hand. You should know what that means. If you fight me now, how confident are you that you’ll win p>
Tsaric quietly shook his head and let out a heavy sigh. “Your level in martial arts is beyond what I can understand. If I fought you now, I wouldn’t even have a twenty percent chance of winning p>
Leander gave a slight smile. “If you know that, why are you still doing this p>
Giving a helpless smile, Tsaric raised his hand like a blade in front of his chest. “Even if I know I’ll lose, I still have to try. The chance to become transcendent–who could walk away from that? Worst case, I end up like Grayson, dying on the path to transcendence. Life and death don’t matter to me anymore. This is my last shot p>
Leander looked at him, then slowly nodded as his gaze landed on the center of Tsaric’s forehead. “So that’s it. This really is your last chance p>
Tsaric looked strong on the outside, his whole body shining with sword light. However, right between his brows, there was a trace of death. The energy around him seemed like it could vanish at any moment.
It was clear this was his final burst of strength–he didn’t have much time left.
From what Leander could tell, Tsaric wouldn’t live more than three days. He was near the end.
But something didn’t add up. Once someone became a Martial Sovereign, they should have a lifespan of at least 150 years. Tsaric looked to be in his early seventies. Why was he already running out of time?
“You really are sharp–you can even tell what’s going on with my body,” Tsaric commented with a faint smile and a sigh. “I started practicing swordsmanship when I was ten. I thought I was smart, better than everyone else my age, so I didn’t bother building a strong foundation. I rushed ahead, always chasing the next level.
“But trying to move too fast only backfired. One wrong step led to damage I couldn’t fix. Now my energy and blood are weak, and my lifespan has been cut short.
“I’ve only got three days left. My only chance to stay alive is to challenge you and try to break into the Transcendent Realm.
“So, how could I let this chance go p>
Leander stared at him without any pity. Everything that happened was Tsaric’s own doing. If he had taken his time and done things the right way, he wouldn’t be like this now.

Leander respected his decision to risk everything for a new start, but he didn’t admire it, thinking, Tying to use me as a stepping stone to reach transcendence? Wishful thinking!

“If the chance is right in front of you, what are you waiting for?” Leander’s voice was calm as he waved him forward.
“Alright, then! Jeff, today I’ll use my Jesundese swordsmanship to challenge you!” Tsaric’s voice rang out loud and clear as he slashed with his palm like a blade.
Through the rain, a bright arc of sword light swept toward Leander.
Another high–level battle had begun.
Yvette and Madeline had tears on their faces, but they still looked at Leander with had just been through one tough fight. Could he handle another strong opponent?
worry.
He
Atlas and the other Martial Sovereigns from the Great Seven Martial Clans of Cloudveil had already given up on getting the Silverleaf. But now that Tsaric had stepped in, they started to feel hopeful again.
If he could kill Leander, then the Silverleaf in Tardide Valley might be up for grabs again.
The sword light ripped through the air. Tsaric had only swung once, but all the spectators felt fear.
Even someone like Roman needed time to build up energy to release sword force, and even then, his range was only about ten yards, but Tsaric’s strike cut through the sky like nothing. His strength was on a whole different level. That was the power of the Sword Master of Jesund.
The sword light came crashing down, but Leander stayed calm. He threw a single punch.
Rain burst apart as his fist met the sword light.
The bright sword light shattered into sparks–he had broken it with one punch.
Tsaric let out a grunt in the air, stepping back with one foot. The stone pillar under him shook. His first strike had been stopped, but he didn’t panic. He pressed his hands together and slashed again.
This time, the sword light was twice as powerful. The force filled over ten yards of space. Even the rain couldn’t fall into it.

“Tsaric, your swordsmanship is at its peak, but not enough to beat me. A sword like that won’t hurt me.” Leander spoke calmly, reached out with one hand, and grabbed the sword light.
The beam of sword energy–three inches wide and more than ten yards long–was crushed in his bare hand.
“What p>
Even Tsaric couldn’t hide his shock this time. He had put everything into that attack, but Leander shattered it with his bare hand. The gap between them was overwhelming.
A few seconds later, Tsaric looked up. His strong sword energy faded and drew back into his body. His eyes dimmed.
“Huh?” Leander’s eyes narrowed in surprise. He could feel Tsaric’s life slipping away fast.
“Jeff, you really are the most gifted fighter Astria’s seen in a hundred years. I can’t beat you.” Tsaric’s voice was weak, but his face showed a calm, peaceful smile.
He was ready for the end.
“I’ve already lost today. But even if I lose, I want to use my body and life to release my strongest sword p>
As he spoke, energy burst from his palms. He pressed them against the top of his head, and blood shot into the sky.
“With my blood and soul, I’ll become the sword and cut through everything p>
In the next moment, his body exploded into golden light.
That light came together into a single shape–a Jesundese sword, Tsaric’s strongest sword.
