Zhou Qianfeng, The Hunter
Meanwhile, as Ling Xuan was heading for Dragon Tail, in Grey Whisper, more specifically within the White Blade Sect, a significant upheaval was taking place. The cause? The Masters of the two divisions, Ren Tai of the Justice House and Zhou Qianfeng of the Hunter’s Division, were engaged in a fierce brawl.
In a field situated in the wilderness of the White Blade Sect, endless explosions echoed through the air. The sky above was darkened by the sheer force of their clashing techniques.
White Blade Martial Technique - Storm of Blades!
Zhou Qianfeng roared, and several swords materialised, flying together in a deadly formation toward Ren Tai, who stood defiant in a yellow robe.
“Zhou Qianfeng! You bastard!” Ren Tai shouted back, retaliating with his own technique.
White Blade Martial Technique - Hand of Impenetrable Justice!
Ren Tai’s hand began to glow as Qi swirled in and around his palm. The swords hurtled toward him, but he struck out with his palm.
BOOM!
All the swords crumbled instantly upon contact, disintegrating into a shower of sparks. Ren Tai leaped forward, his eyes locked onto Zhou Qianfeng, who sported a blood-red robe, his expression one of cold determination.
“You fool! You have squandered our Sect’s resources!” Zhou Qianfeng snorted, positioning his blade above his head. He swung down with tremendous force

The sword's blow travelled with blinding speed towards the approaching Ren Tai. Seeing it, Ren Tai struck his palm outward again, meeting the sword blow head-on.
CRACK!
The force of their collision sent shockwaves rippling through the field, uprooting trees and scattering debris. Ren Tai’s glowing palm clashed against Zhou Qianfeng’s blade, the impact creating a powerful shockwave that reverberated through the area.
“You’ve endangered our sect with your reckless pursuit of vengeance!” Zhou Qianfeng spat, his voice barely audible over the roar of their clash. “Our resources should be used to strengthen us all, not for your personal vendettas!”
Ren Tai’s eyes blazed with fury. “You don’t understand! This is about justice! Ren Shi was my son! His death cannot go unavenged!”
“To hell with your damn revenge!” Zhou Qianfeng spat, launching another fierce attack. “White Blade Martial Technique - Tiger of Insufferable Fangs!”
Zhou Qianfeng's blade descended with the ferocity of a wild beast. Ren Tai narrowly dodged the attack and retaliated with a swift, powerful kick to Zhou Qianfeng’s stomach, sending him stumbling backward.
“If you wanted to avenge your son so badly, then why the hell didn’t you go yourself?” Zhou Qianfeng yelled, clutching his abdomen. “Instead, you dispatched one expert after another, sending even your brother and nephew to their deaths!”
“Why do you care so much?” Ren Tai shouted back, his eyes burning with fury and pain.
“Why do I care so much? Because I am responsible for the Sect as well, you insufferable retard!” Zhou Qianfeng’s voice was a mix of rage and desperation. “Our resources, our strength, our unity—they’re all at stake because of your reckless actions!”
Ren Tai didn’t respond verbally, his silence a testament to his unwavering resolve. Instead, he buckled his legs, gathering his Qi for another powerful technique.
White Blade Martial Technique - Golden Bell of The White Tiger!
A golden aura enveloped Ren Tai, forming a protective shield that gleamed with an ethereal light. The aura took the shape of a mighty white tiger, its presence exuding an aura of invincibility.
Zhou Qianfeng's eyes narrowed as he observed the formidable technique. “You think that will save you?” he snarled, gripping his sword tightly. “You’re deluding yourself!”
The two Masters charged at each other again, their techniques colliding with explosive force. Zhou Qianfeng’s blade clashed against the golden shield of the White Tiger, sending sparks flying in all directions.
The force of their clash sent shockwaves through the battlefield, causing the ground to tremble. The surrounding trees swayed violently, and the air was thick with the scent of burning wood and scorched earth.
Ren Tai's golden shield held firm, but he could feel the strain of maintaining such a powerful technique. Sweat dripped down his face as he focused all his Qi into sustaining the Golden Bell of The White Tiger.
Zhou Qianfeng, on the other hand, was relentless. He attacked again and again, his blade striking with the fury of a storm. “You’ve endangered everything we’ve worked for!” he shouted, his voice hoarse from exertion. “Our sect is more than just your personal vendetta!”
Ren Tai gritted his teeth, his determination unwavering. “Ren Shi was my son. His death will not go unavenged, no matter the cost.”
The clash between the two Masters continued, each strike more desperate and powerful than the last. The field around them was a chaotic mess of debris and destruction, a testament to the intensity of their battle.
As the sun began to set, casting long shadows across the battlefield, the two Masters were locked in a stalemate. Both were exhausted, their bodies pushed to the limit. But neither was willing to back down, their resolve fueled by their convictions.
“Time to end this!” Zhou Qianfeng shouted, his voice filled with determination. He gripped his blade tightly, ready to unleash a final attack that would settle the battle once and for all.
“You’re right,” Ren Tai gasped for air, his body covered in bruises and cuts. The strain of the prolonged fight was evident, but his resolve remained unbroken.
White Blade Martial Technique - Sword of Magnificent Cut!
White Blade Martial Technique - Fist of The Everlasting Giant!
The two attacks collided with a deafening explosion, sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield. Debris and dust flew in all directions, creating a chaotic whirlwind around the two combatants. The force of the explosion was so immense that it seemed to tear the very fabric of reality apart, yet amidst the destruction, Ren Tai and Zhou Qianfeng stood their ground, their eyes locked in a fierce glare.
Suddenly, everything changed.
“What are you idiots doing?” A voice called out, calm yet authoritative. Instantly, the cataclysmic energy dissipated, leaving a heavy silence in its wake.
