A faint smile played on Robin's lips as he leapt out of his spot by the edge of the pool.

In the place he had just been standing, over a hundred throwing knives struck the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and shattered stones.

From the shadows of the Peachgrove came a cold, cerie laugh, shaking loose countless petals from the

trees.

"Divine Drakebane truly lives up to the reputation!"

After the strange laugh, a man's voice, slightly awkward in Draconian, drifted out-calm and warm, as though greeting an old friend he hadn't seen in years.

Ive been watching you for a while now, Mr. Drakebane.

Those elite fighters who were among the top ranks on the Dark List 20 years ago-they were the strongest of their time. Yet none could withstand a single strike from you. Divine Drakebane, you haven't disappointed me!" Robin gave a cold smile. "But I might just make you despair."

"Heheheh... The strange laughter echoed again.

"Divine Drakebane-truly worthy of the name! So arrogant... I like it!"

From the shadows of the peach grove, a middle-aged man from Sakurania slowly stepped forward.

He wore a black warrior robe, sandals on his feet, and held a saber in his hand.

The hilt of the saber was engraved with two blood-red sakura blossoms set in adamantine.

To be considered a Hall-level master, a fighter's saber would carry one of two symbols: an adamantine-studded hilt or a diamond-studded hilt with blood-red sakura blossoms,

A saber with one blood-red sakura symbolized an entry-level adamantine master of the sect.

A saber with two blood-red sakura symbols marked a top-level adamantine master of the sect.

The Northern Star Sect had ten entry-level adamantine masters and only three top-level adamantine

masters.
