While many of their younger generation have pursued the path of battle pet master, the most talented among them have adhered to the ancestral teachings, steadfastly practicing ancient martial arts.
They have never forgotten the glory of their ancestors and believe that even in an era dominated by battle pet masters, powerful practitioners of ancient martial arts can still shine brightly.
The Shah family is large and influential, with over ten thousand mbers. Among the current generation of disciples, two stand out as the strongest. The second ranked is Fazira Era, who has lived with her mother at the Shah family estate since childhood.
Fazira Era's mother is the sister of the current family head, Rahman Shah, making Fazira Era and Iskandar cousins. Ranked first is the Third Young Master of the Shah family, Jiman.
These two individuals are highly regarded by the younger generation of the Shah family as "Sword and Leaf." Both of them have exceptional talents in ancient martial arts, representing the essence of the Shah family.
At this mont, there are many family mbers gathered by Tianjiao Bridge, almost overcrowding the area. The reason for this is that the renowned challenge about to begin at Tianjiao Bridge is to be faced by Fazira Era, a part of the famous "Sword and Leaf" duo.
Everyone is eager to see how far Fazira Era's understanding of ancient martial arts has reached, and whether she can surpass the record held by Jiman.
"Fazira, you may begin the challenge now." The referee spoke kindly to Fazira Era.
As an elder of the Shah family, the referee naturally understood Fazira Era's exceptional talent. If it weren't for the decline of the Era family on her paternal side, Fazira Era would not have returned to the Shah family with her mother.
He was looking forward to seeing whether this "outsider" mber of the Shah family could compete with the extraordinary talent of the Third Young Master.
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Fazira Era took a deep breath and stepped onto Tianjiao Bridge. The bridge spans a total length of 500 ters. The last ti Fazira Era attempted the challenge was six months ago, achieving a distance of 223 ters, placing her second.
For the past six months, she has been diligently training nonstop. This ti, she wanted to see what results she could achieve! With determination, Fazira Era took her first step.
On Tianjiao Bridge, an imnse pressure descended from above. But Fazira Era unleashed her strength and successfully withstood the pressure.
1 ter, 2 ters, 5 ters, 10 ters...
In the initial stages, Fazira Era moved with ease. Before long, she surpassed the 200 ter mark. Currently, among the younger generation of the Shah family, only ten have achieved a score above 200 ters on the Tianjiao Bridge test.
Fazira Era easily surpassed 200 ters, showcasing her exceptional prowess. After 200 ters, Fazira Era's pace gradually slowed. The reason was that beyond 200 ters, the pressure intensified significantly, requiring her to proceed with caution.
210 ters, 220 ters, 230 ters!
It took her a full three minutes to reach 230 ters. This distance surpassed her previous record of 223 ters.
"Well done, Fazira!"
"Keep going!"
"You're the best!"
With her strong abilities, excellent character, and remarkable beauty, Fazira Era is well loved by the Shah family mbers. Seeing her perform so well, her relatives were genuinely happy for her.
On Tianjiao Bridge, Fazira Era gritted her teeth and continued to press forward. However, after crossing the 230 ter mark, she felt she was nearing her limit, advancing only a few centiters with each difficult step.
Eventually, she could no longer withstand the imnse pressure and fell off the bridge. Her final score was fixed at 234 56 ters!
Compared to her last attempt, she improved by over 11 ters, an outstanding performance.
Yet, it still fell 44 centiters short of Jiman's record of 235 ters. While she didn't surpass Jiman, her remarkable performance caused quite a stir.
The onlookers erupted into applause and cheers. They had witnessed the ergence of a stronger Fazira Era. From now on, the legendary duel between the Sword and the Leaf would beco even more intense!
"I wonder how much the Third Young Master has improved recently?"
"Indeed, I'm looking forward to the Third Young Master's showdown with Fazira Era!"
"I think Fazira Era is slightly stronger. Consider this: the Third Young Master is 24, while Miss Fazira is only 22. Clearly, Fazira Era has better talent."
"Hey, how can you speak in favor of outsiders? This is the Shah family!"
"Nonsense! Who told you that Miss Fazira is an outsider? Even though her last na is Era, she is still of Shah family blood! Are you crazy to push such a talent away?"
...
Fazira Era's outstanding performance sparked widespread discussion on the scene. Countless admiring gazes were cast upon her on Tianjiao Bridge.
Gifted from a young age, she was accustod to being looked up to, and in her eyes, the only person who could stand on equal footing with her was her cousin, Jiman.
As a martial arts enthusiast, Fazira Era only respected the strong. But just as she was stepping off Tianjiao Bridge, the crowd suddenly beca restless.
Wow.
The onlookers automatically parted into two groups, clearing a path. Walking along this path toward Tianjiao Bridge was soone entirely unexpected.
"Who's making such a grand entrance?"
Seeing the crowd suddenly disperse, Fazira Era frowned. She imdiately focused her gaze, and to her surprise, a familiar figure erged proudly from the passage.
"It's him!"
Fazira Era covered her mouth in disbelief. Iskandar, a frail invalid, had co to Tianjiao Bridge. Was he here just to watch the commotion?
Or was he planning to challenge Tianjiao Bridge?
It wasn't just Fazira Era who was surprised; the onlookers were equally astonished. In their minds, this Second Young Master rarely even left his room, and his appearance at Tianjiao Bridge was unprecedented! Despite their surprise, etiquette was still observed.
