The Almighty Dragon General

Are you sure about letting me have the first ten moves?”
James looked at Woodson with a cocky grin.
Woodson replied earnestly. “I’ve made a few unreasonable demands and stacked the odds against you. I don’t want people to
spread rumors about how I won unfairly, so I’ll let you have the first ten moves.”
Woodson was incredibly confident in his strength.
He was sure he could win if James did not use the Five Great Paths and Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword.
James continued to smile at his opponent's declaration.
He gripped the branch and stared at Woodson on the opposite mountain.
“Since you insist, I’ll take the opportunity then.”
James then suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, he appeared in front of Woodson.
His movements were lightning-fast, and no one in the same cultivation rank could even see his trajectory. Only a few stronger
people were able to perceive him.
James appeared before Woodson with his wooden branch pressed against Woodson’s forehead.
Woodson could not even react in time.
A few seconds later, beads of sweat formed on his opponent’s forehead.
He saw James about to spring into action.
Then, James rushed toward him, and Sword Path Power emerged from the branch.
The power surrounded Woodson and blocked off his escape routes.
Even if James had not sealed off Woodson’s surroundings, Woodson would still be unable to counter him in time. When James
attacked, Woodson saw countless exquisite sword moves emerging from James’ branch.

The sword moves merged into one and thrummed with potent force.
Many strong cultivators watched from a distance.
“That’s...”
“It’s the Ancestral Sword Master’s swordsmanship!”
“James seems to have mastered the Ancestral Sword Master’s swordsmanship.”
“Yeah. Despite his low cultivation rank, his sword moves are amazing. He must be skilled in swordsmanship to display such
exquisite technique.”
“His sword skills are astonishing!”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an impressive display of the Ancestral Sword Master’s First Stage swordsmanship.”
“The swordsmanship he brandished was one of a peerless swordsman.”
The battlefield was abuzz with amazed murmurs.
James defeated Woodson effortlessly with his swordsmanship.
He used the Ancestral Sword Master’s First Stage swordsmanship. Although it was the basics of that technique, it was also a
crucial part of its foundation.
Despite it being considered a low-level technique of the Ancestral Sword Master’s first swordsmanship, it was very profound. The
more moves incorporated into it, the stronger the attack became. The seemingly ordinary move could unleash colossal power
enough to destroy heaven and earth.
It was a highly complex move that was simplified. Those that witnessed James’ demonstration of it were shocked.
Some Sword Cultivators at the Emperor Rank were impressed by James.
James pulled back the branch and casually threw it on the ground.
Only then did Woodson snap back to the present. He frantically took a few steps backward and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

“I lost...I lost...”
Woodson was in disbelief.
He thought James was merely a prodigy with great potential. Initially, he was confident he could defeat James.
Woodson never expected to lose.
Moreover, it was an absolute loss.
The branch would have impaled his head if James had not held back.
