Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

While James pondered over killing Zen or not, Zen acted first against him.

"The flying knife? I don't fear it at all. It means nothing to me," James blurted out arrogantly.

Just as he said it, he saw the broken flying knife heading towards him. Like a reflex, he lifted his long blue sword up and chopped up the weapon.

Although James' blue sword was made from his life vitality, it was as mighty as a fairy weapon as it had absorbed loads of heavenly essence.

In addition, James used his Ruin Sword when he chopped up the broken flying knife.

The chopping manifested James' unique and skilled swordsmanship as his long blue sword landed on the very center of the knife.

It was what he thought at first--that he could chop Zen's knife into two halves with his powerful sword.

But when his own weapon touched Zen's knife, it was immediately shattered broken.

"How is this possible? My sword was produced from my life vitality and it's even comparable to a fairy weapon. How could a broken flying knife destroy my sword?" mumbled James in shock.

Never could he have expected that Zen's broken flying knife would be so strong. As he watched his life vitality-based long sword get chopped into two by a knife, he was stunned agape.

The long sword was as hard as a low-grade fairy weapon. How was it possible that his sword was cleaved by a defective knife? The idea was still totally unbelievable for James even as it happened right in front of his eyes.
