The moment the shield warrior saw his opponent slowing down, in the full glare of the spectators, his attitude underwent a complete change. If the Shield warrior had been a ferocious dog during his previous exchanges with the sword man, currently he was a mad wolf.
Bang!
The shield warrior's shield connected loudly with the swordsman's body and the spectating crowd flinched as they saw the swordsman's body get flung away about a dozen steps from his pursuer.
'what mad strength' the swordsman had just the time to wonder as he felt his body fly away following that singular charge.
Shiiii!!
The swordsman's feet slid across the sandy arena floor as he struggled to stop his rapid recession so that he could maintain his balance. In the end, he was forced to dig his sword into the ground just so he could stop sliding back.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
