*Bang!*

The great sword pounded onto the wall with powerful impacts, causing half of the small cottage to collapse instantaneously and resulting in a thick layer of dust filling the air. Bolton, who was grasping onto his great sword, then laughed foolishly as he turned his head towards Guthem.  

"I merely asked you to break the door, not to bring down the entire cottage!" Guthem was about to fly into a rage, but a thought came up in his mind. [How can I have such a stupid younger brother, when I'm so intelligent?!]

At that moment, Bolton realised that he made a mistake and scratched his head with an innocent look. Upon seeing how his brother behaved, Guthem got even more furious as he spoke in an indifferent tone, "Get down to work! The collapse of the cottage will definitely attract attention from the public, so find that little rascal quickly!"

"Okay, brother." Bolton responded to Guthem, before rus.h.i.+ng into the collapsed cottage with his great sword in his hand.

Just as Bolton was deliberating on the way to find the level two magician from the chaotic pile of bricks, a Swordsman in armour suit suddenly stood in front of him. The Swordsman wore a sparkling silver-coloured armour suit, which had strange floral engravings all over it. The floral engravings reflected dazzling light and left an implicit dreary aura.

Both Guthem and Bolton were dumbstruck the moment they saw this Swordsman. Guthem then questioned the Swordsman with several points of doubts, "Hammer?"

"I'm now called Tony Stark." Guthem proclaimed with a cool voice. Fortunately, Ye Chui was quick enough to put on his armour suit just before the cottage collapsed and that his armour suit was st.u.r.dy enough to withstand the collapse of the bricks, otherwise, he would have been buried below the debris. Ye Chui then brandished his long sword from his waist and pointed it towards Bolton and Guthem, "d.a.m.n it, let's fight!"

Ye Chui had originally prepared to keep the relations.h.i.+p between him and the Iron Swordsman a secret for life, but since the two of them had already knew about the ident.i.ty of the Iron Swordsman, their lives could not be spared. It was time that Ye Chui had the determination to kill them.

Despite the appearance of the Swordsman in an armour suit, Guthem and Bolton neither had their guards up nor felt scared, as they knew that it was a useless level two Magician who was inside the armour. They could only mock Ye Chui in his heart. [Does he think that he'll become more formidable when he puts on an armour suit? He should just focus on researching magic, instead of coming up with all this nonsense…]

Guthem let out a cold laughter, before das.h.i.+ng towards Ye Chui at lightning speed and striking him with a long sword.

Guthem's sword was not enchanted, but he had used all of his might in his attack. He knew that the collapse of the cottage had attracted attention from the public and that many people would be gathered here to spectate, so he had to finish Ye Chui off with this one strike. In his mind, he thought that even if Ye Chui's armour could withstand a portion of the impact, his strike would still be powerful enough to kill him.

Ye Chui dodged.

He dodged the attack with ease.

Simultaneously, Ye Chui brandished his long sword in his hand, as he counter-struck Guthem's wrist with a formidable strike, *Pnng*. Guthem's long sword almost slipped out of his hand. Following that, Ye Chui swept his long sword upwards with a *zila*, as the magic matrix on his long sword lighted up, providing strong support to Ye Chui's attack. Guthem's bright red armour immediately shone brightly, before he involuntarily fell backwards due to the powerful impact from Ye Chui.

Ye Chui's attacks occurred in less than a second.

The entire scene seemed as if Guthem attempted to attack Ye Chui, but missed, before he flew backwards with his armour suit s.h.i.+ning brightly.

Ye Chui's reaction speed was unbelievable.

In actuality, Guthem's armour suit had been enchanted with a defensive magic matrix, but how would he have thought that he would have needed to activate it when battling against a level two Magician? Similarly, Guthem underestimated Ye Chui and did not expect him to have any ability of defence against that fatal strike. This oversight on his part caused him to attack Ye Chui using merely brute force, instead of any skill. Furthermore, he did not prepare any back-up move to deal with Ye Chui, therefore allowing Ye Chui to counter strike.

The formidable impact of Ye Chui's strike resulted in Guthem's armour splitting open, revealing the clothes he wore underneath. His armour suit was thus condemned and the enchanting matrixes engraved on it can no longer be used.  On the other hand, the impact of Ye Chui's strike to Guthem's wrist left a painful sensation and Guthem could no longer grasp onto his long sword firmly.

How can Ye Chui's reaction time and strength be so good?

It was impossible for Ye Chui to react so quickly and deal such powerful damage.

In reality, up to the point when Guthem was sent flying backwards, Ye Chui had no clue as to what had happened. It was only at that instant when Guthem struck towards him that he immediately activated 'fighting style number five' of the 12 fighting styles; and it was this fighting style that counteracted Guthem's strike.

Slanting one's body, using the sword hilt to hit someone's wrist, slas.h.i.+ng a long sword upwards, as well as activating the magic matrix on the long sword during the attack were part of the operations of the armour suit.

Not counting the time when Ye Chui battled with the puppet Swordsman in the ancient tomb, this was the first time Ye Chui battled someone under the ident.i.ty of the Iron Swordsman.

"How is this possible…" Guthem looked at the damage done to his armour with a dazed expression, as he could not believe his eyes. He then looked up and shouted at Bolton, "Don't just stand there, quickly kill him!"

Bolton immediately let out a loud cry, before das.h.i.+ng towards Ye Chui with his great sword brandished in the air. His first move was a horizontal sweep towards Ye Chui.

Ye Chui immediately activated the fighting style programme, sprang into the air and made a nimble backflip, thus dodging this forceful sweep from Bolton's great sword. He then landed on the ground on both his feet, creating some crumbling sound as the debris below his feet disintegrated into several pieces upon his impact. Ye Chui once again launched his attack towards Bolton like a cannon; since Bolton could not defend himself due to the wielding of his great sword, Ye Chui's left shoulder slammed into Bolton's chest, causing him to stumble and fall backwards.

Ye Chui used this opportunity to steady himself. He then leaped upwards with his long sword in his hands, pointed his long sword downwards and stabbed it into Bolton, who was lying on the ground at that instant. Simultaneously, the magic matrixes on his shoulders and back lighted up, providing a large propelling force.

Bolton virtually did not have any time to defend against Ye Chui's attack as the sharp tip of Ye Chui's long sword broke his black iron armour suit and pierced right into his heart.

This was the seventh fighting style out of the twelve, the consecutive series of moves did not give Bolton even a chance of defence.

As Ye Chui's long sword pierced into Bolton's chest, he let out a loud cry which faded gradually. Unexpectedly, Ye Chui managed to kill Bolton in just one confrontation!

The powerful force dealt by Ye Chui was partially due to the supply of energy from the Iron Swordsman suit, and mostly due to the knowledge obtained from the 12 fighting styles of the level nine Swordsman. Any ordinary Swordsman in the Iron Swordsman suit would not have any chance of retaliating against Bolton's attacks.

"Bolton?!" Guthem stared wide-eyed at the horrific scene. [My own brother died just like that? Although I've always felt that he was dumb and was not worthy to be my brother, the kins.h.i.+p between both of us had been there all along.] This younger brother of Guthem's had always went along with his instructions and had been a great help to him. But now… Guthem's younger brother died in the hands of Ye Chui?

"It's you! You were the Iron Swordsman that appeared in the ancient tomb!" Guthem suddenly yelled at Ye Chui, as he recalled something out of the blue.

"It's too late that you realise it now." Ye Chui removed his long sword from Bolton's chest and aimed it towards Guthem, "Now, it's your turn."

Guthem stared at Ye Chui in a daze for a moment, before smiling in a callous and crazy manner. Guthem then grasped his long sword with both his hands and squatted on the ground, while looking at Ye Chui with a pair of sinister eyes. The scene right before Ye Chui's eyes made him recall the time when Carrey, Busca's son, was forced to adopt this skill. This skill is called and can only be used by intermediate Swordsmen.

This particular skill increases one's battling capabilities using lost boundary.

Guthem was already prepared to go all out in the battle with Ye Chui. Although both Carrey and him were level four Swordsmen, his would be much more formidable than Carrey's as Carrey possessed the attributes of a City Lord's Guard.

Guthem's body started to burn with intermittent blue flames…
