The battle taking place there was going to decide the fate of the entire fort.
The two young boys had three bonded flying swords, a demon-binding chain, and the colorful belt on their side, while the old man was in truly dire straits, having been worn down by the seemingly never-ending array of immortal treasures at the disposal of his two young opponents.
