What Shi Xiaole utilized was naturally the newly learned Thirteen Skills of Mystifying Cloud and Mist.
Lu Yan's sword moves took a path of simplicity in complexity, aiming to use strength to override speed. Thus, when he faced Zuo Feiyang, he was able to suppress Zuo's rapid swordplay completely.
However, these type of power-based swordsmen have a great weakness: technical sword moves.
Under the attack of the Cloud Mist Thirteen Styles, which values skill and variability, Lu Yan lost his advantage instantaneously. Although he possessed great strength, he simply couldn't exert it to its full extent.
The feeling of being restrained made him want to let out a frustrated howl.
"What a marvelous sword technique. Did Shi Xiaole hold back at the Sky City Meeting?"
Xiong Ni widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe.
