39 Phoenixs Breath, Dragons Charge (1/2)
”Is that so?”
”That's right, grandpa.” Kikyo said as she pulled out her phone to show him a video, ”I recorded a video from when I faced him, just take a look at this.”
Kikyo played the video of when she faced off against Li Ming's The Dawn in the battle royale match. Her grandpa watched the video intently, growing only more and more excited as he gripped her phone harder. When Li Ming started accelerating in his attacks, Kikyo began to fear for her phone's life as her grandpa's grip was starting to show his veins.
He handed her the phone back, his palms sweaty.
”To think that he would grow so much in just a period of two to three days...” He said as he tried to stand up. Unfortunately, he felt his knees week as he had had too much adrenaline while he was watching the video.
”I didn't expect his Dragon's Breath to be at the same level as yours,” Kikyo said, ”In fact, it felt fiercer than yours.”
”Yes, indeed it was.” He agreed as he picked up his spear, ”Even I've never seen something like that.”
With his spear, he threw out a stab, followed by a slash.
*Whoosh~* *BANG*
After a pause, the old man's Dragon's Breath shot out. But this time, he dropped his spear mid way through. The spear simply flew out of his grip as he tried to recreate The Dawn's movements again. Arms heavy, he went to retrieve his spear. It would seem as Li Ming had surpassed his Dragon's Breath.
”What did you say his team was?” He asked Kikyo, ”The Osaka...”
”Phoenixes.” She replied, ”The recently resurrected team, the Osaka Phoenixes.”
'A Phoenix, huh... ' he hummed while he thought of the young'un juxtaposed against a phoenix, 'Shall we call it the 'Phoenix's Breath', then?'
”He's coming over tomorrow, isn't he?” Kikyo asked in an attempt to calm the old man down, fearing that he would vomit on his sweater at this time of the night, ”Can't you just ask him to show you again tomorrow?”
”Sure thing,” The old man set his spear back on the rack, ”Let's get some dinner, didn't your mom make spaghetti tonight?”
”Yeah, let's go!”

”Wait you saw a video?” Li Ming asked, incredulous, ”What video?”
”The video where you fought my granddaughter of course!” the old man laughed, ”I saw how you absolutely dominated that fight, especially towards the end there with your 'Phoenix's Breath', eh?”
”Phoenix Breath?”
”Your version of the Dragon's Breath, of course. Can't be using the same name on a different technique, right?”
'So it was something different entirely!' Li Ming thought of the encounter he had with Kikyo. Truly, the last attack he used was something else entirely.
”Let's see it one more time, then, shall we?” The old man aimed his spear at Li Ming, ready to charge.
Li Ming raised his spear, obviously nervous. But on the surface, he looked calm and ready.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

Their spears clashed in the middle. Completely even.
When the old man would stab, Li Ming would parry by swiping the oldman's spear away, and then follow up with a stab or a slash of his own. The old man would do the same, but from a different angle. This exchange occurred several times, before the old man tried to break the rhythm of the exchange by attacking early.
Both of their spears met again in the center when they both striked at the same time. Both spears bounced back at the same time. Taking this opportunity, Li Ming unleashed his Dragon's Breath, which was met by the old man's own Dragon's Breath.
*BANGBANGBANG* *BANGBANG* *BANGBANGBANG*
Their spears clashed fiercely, before Li Ming started to accelerate once more. First his spears started rotating to stabilize each stab and strike, while also increasing the repelling force of his parries. As his spears started to rotate, Li Ming started attacking from more angles, aiming for more and more different targets.
