The land stretches endlessly into the distance, and there is a vastness that seems to reach the other side of the world. However, this is nothing more than a delusion. But even so, it was enough luxury to use it as a duel place for two people.

"That...... I said, 'Do you have to fight?'"

Ping said in a helpless tone. The object of her inquiry is undoubtedly the girl opposite her, the head of the Genji family, Kira.

At this moment, the two were standing in the center of the Destiny Arena and facing each other.

"After all, this is just the word of the general, as long as you don't comply, he won't force you."

Although he knew that his nonsense would definitely not be let go so easily, Ping Qingle still didn't expect Feili to let Qiluo fight him, and used a high-sounding reason like "I want to see if Ping's skills have regressed".

Unable to resist Feili's tough attitude, she could only honestly come to this sacred place after the meeting, the duel place of the samurai, the place where all the samurai competed on the moon.

However, it is precisely because it is not of its own volition. So it's understandable that her fighting spirit is not high. Now, she is trying to convince Kira with a fear of trouble.

But will things go her way?

"No—even if it weren't for the Admiral's request, I would like to compete with you again."

From Kira's lips that belonged to the girl spat out the words that Hei didn't want to hear.

There is a calm fighting spirit in the black eyes...... That look looks familiar. Hei was sure that he had seen such eyes somewhere, but they were brighter and more attractive eyes.

Then, she came to her senses. This look is so similar to Feili.

"Hmph."

Instead of trying to convince Kira, Taira secretly laughed at his own stupidity in his heart.

She almost forgot that the girl in front of her was a guy who, like Feili, would never waver in what she had identified. Whatever she says doesn't make sense.

If this is the case, then there is only one answer for Ping's next answer.

"In that case, it seems that there is no way to do it. Then I'll fight you—it's just a long-lost exercise."

The words were full of nonchalant tone, but what was seriously inconsistent with these words was that her actions could be described as solemn.

The two small knives pinned to the right side of the waist were slowly pulled out by the left and right hands.

Although he said that he hated fighting very much at first, when it came to the end, Ping Qingle found that he was inevitably excited. It seems that even after thousands of years, she is still a yellow-haired girl who has not changed much.

Realizing this fact didn't make her feel too emotional, and after just drawing a self-deprecating arc at the corner of her mouth, she focused on her opponent.

Even the Ping clan, who has always been extremely uninterested in Kira, has to be amazed by the demeanor of the head of the Yuan family.

The girl in the blue and white samurai costume is obviously only wearing a small must, but she is more courageous than the warrior wearing the big kai. This is probably due to her own appearance, which is an excellent beauty herself, and her dignified and majestic temperament distinguishes her from the flamboyance of ordinary women.

However, if there are any drawbacks...... Tie up all the beautiful black hair up to the waist with a ribbon, although it is carefully groomed, but that's all. It's a waste to pay attention to appearance, but not to be aware of your own beauty.

But Ping Qingle also had to admit that this is the characteristic of Yuan Qiluo.

As she observed Kira, the other party also drew his own sword, which was longer than the sword in Taira's hand.

"That's not a mustache cut."

Because she had seen Kira wear Genji's Treasure, Mustache Kiri, also known as Onikiri's Excalibur, she could easily detect the difference between this sword and her memory.

"But...... It's also a famous thing. What's the name of this sword?"

That's true. Anyone who doesn't have to be blind knows the superiority of the sword that Genji wields. The clear light proudly fluttered between the blades, but it was not too dazzling, not blindly boasting of sharpness. This is exactly the feeling that only a sword that houses the soul of a swordsmith can have, and Ping Qingle can feel a strong will from it.

"Authentic."

The concise two words made Ping's short exclamation.

"Oh...... I see. Indeed, it is as good as I have heard, and the response is extraordinary. And it's very commensurate with you—it's all so incomprehensible."

In Hei's opinion, this sword is simply a match made in heaven with Kira.

Famous objects that symbolize power and righteousness, of course, the Taira clan has heard of. It's true that the reaction is different when I see it today, but if it were her, she would definitely not use this sword. Because the phase is too poor. This kind of typical sword of righteousness is really not the type that Ping Qingle can accept, and she can be said to be negative about the essence of authenticity.

It may sound like a very noble will, but it is actually the hope that the sword-bearer will become a chivalrous person with a sense of justice. In this regard, Ping sneered from the bottom of his heart. Because no matter how it is modified, the essence of the sword is still a murder weapon, and it is too ridiculous that a murder weapon still wants to implement any justice.

And Genji is the same, as a samurai...... As a sergeant, he still wants to talk about justice. There has to be a limit to joking. Although I know very well who this character comes from, this does not mean that Ping Qingle has to agree.

"Blade in your hand......

In response to Ping Qingle's unceremonious words, Kira didn't even move his eyebrows. That's right, her self-cultivation doesn't make her angry because of this level of provocation.

"Ahh It's just something that has no name—but the murder weapon doesn't need that useless thing in the first place."

Ping Qingle shook the small knife in his hand deftly, and the dim light reflected on the knife couldn't help but make people feel contempt. Unlike Kira's famous authenticity, her two small knives are just nameless things, and there is nothing worth paying attention to in appearance, full of vicissitudes.

But Kira knew very well that the vicissitudes of life were the traces left by the bloody wind that these two swords had survived so far, and it could be said to be a proof of the sharpness.

"Although simple, they can be regarded as two sharp blades."

Kira's evaluation made Ping Qingle laugh, and Ping himself didn't expect her laughter to be so hearty.

"Hahahaha, what's this...... I'm going to let you know about it with practical actions."

With these words, the strange atmosphere between the two of them, which could be called somewhat gentle, disappeared in an instant. Scorching heat and calm, from Taira and Genji, two completely different lines of sight collided.

The natural posture has become tense, and now Ping Qingle looks like a cheetah with a low prostity. After all, in the pursuit of maximum assault speed, such a posture can be justified. In contrast, Genji is what makes people feel abnormal.

Relaxed body, the sword naturally hangs down with the right hand -- this kind of posture, that is, there is no posture at all.

This near-transparent act is elusive, especially since the subject is still the Genkira. If it was someone else, Taira could still think that the other party was just playing tricks, but if it was Genji, there must be a strong backing force behind that calm attitude.

This is not the first time the two sides have played each other. When they were young, they often competed, but since they served as the Sifang Gong guarding the border, they rarely had the opportunity to fight again, and the last official battle was six hundred years ago, so the Ping clan didn't know anything about Genqira's current entry.

However, in the face of this unknown adversary. There was no fear of failure in Ping's heart...... Because she was very confident in her own strength, she was confident that her six hundred years of cultivation would definitely not be surpassed by Genji.

"Why don't you attack it? It is the glory of the warrior to strike the party head-on, and it is the shame of the warrior to retreat."

It can be said that it is a refreshing female voice with a little ridicule. Genji's head asked.

That's the last question before the showdown opens.

「――――」

It was a stupid question, though it wasn't spoken, but the golden eyes that seemed to be about to pierce Kira were exactly what they said.

Without any further hesitation, Ping Qingle clenched his twin blades and rushed forward.

"Hahahaha...... This is the posture of a samurai. Yes, I'm impressed with you, Ping."

Different from the usual dignified temperament, it can be said to be a heroic laughter.

Kira seemed to draw an arc in the air and swung her blade. However, to no avail.

At the same time as flicking off the blade that was swinging towards his head with one of the small swords, Taira had to stop his advance. Where she stopped, she was within striking distance of Kira.

Next, the two of them will use their sword skills and strength to divide the ranks.

However, it doesn't seem like a battle that can be won or lost in a short period of time.
