This was the greatest lesson Lin Ming had learned from all his days of spear practice with Hong Xi: even when a technique was fully executed, its momentum wouldn't dissipate. In battle, he could accumulate the residual momentum from every single move and unleash it all in a final, sweeping strike!
Lin Ming's spear seemed much slower than Zhu Yan's sword. For every three strikes Zhu Yan made, Lin Ming would, at most, thrust his spear once. Yet, what was so incredible was that Lin Ming's single spear thrust could block all three of Zhu Yan's sword strikes!
This created an extremely contradictory feeling. As a result, those whose Martial Arts Cultivation wasn't very deep couldn't comprehend the subtleties of the exchange at all. To them, it seemed as if Zhu Yan was just wasting his effort, that barely one in three of his Sword Techniques was having any effect.
