Clang! The sound of metal colliding resounded throughout the entire training ground, followed by a powerful gust of wind that swept the dust into the air.
"…" The onlookers were visibly shocked, even dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before them. In their minds, they had been certain that Yuan would be blown away by Princess Nerith's first strike.
Unfortunately, nothing happened as they had imagined. Yuan stood firmly in his original position; he hadn't even moved an inch.
"T-This is unbelievable! How did he block that attack?!" Someone shouted, clearly in disbelief.
"How is this even possible?! He should have been blown away!"
"Did Princess Nerith go easy on him? After all, he looks too fragile to me."
"That's not impossible! She probably felt pity for him after looking at his pitiful appearance."
The training ground buzzed with whispers once again. Everyone was stunned by the unexpected outcome; they had never anticipated such a result.
