One could easily picture assassins trained in the deadly blade arts of the Hashshashin, enveloped entirely in pitch-black robes, their heads concealed beneath black hoods, wielding sharp daggers. Fearless, they could effortlessly carve a bloody gap even through a tidal wave of heavy cavalry, ultimately taking the head of the enemy general.

Xu Meng rolled out of the gaming pod once more, walked over to the bedside table, and picked up his smartphone, which had been resting there for wireless charging.
The Reverse Scale Twin Swords were whirled by him into a massive wheel of light. High-energy particle streams spun along the blade edges, scattering countless sparks into the air as they rotated to form a gigantic circle of fire.
Karl spent a full year becoming a mechanical adept, yet it was commonplace for students stuck lingering in the apprentice stage of the orthodox mage specialization to be seen everywhere.
Magic-infused crossbow bolts flew forth. Upon striking the stone blocks, the magic bolts dissipated, and new ones immediately re-condensed upon the crossbow.

A hoarse voice issued from the old man's mouth. Muyuan made no reply; instead, her hands, hidden inside her sleeves, trembled slightly, and an extremely tiny speck of blackness flew out from her sleeve.
Even if this game of chess might prove somewhat tragic, it was still fought for the sake of the Supreme Taoist Sect, and a broad-minded sect leader naturally wouldn't quibble too much with my adopted grandfather.
Dai Hao was Fifth Master Dai's full name, and for Dai Jiang to address him by his full name now showed just how furious he was.

Must hypnosis always make someone look as if they are fast asleep? Must hypnosis always require gentle, whispered guidance?
The stone platform was momentarily taken aback. Only when his name was chanted for the third time by the entire audience did he snap back to reality and raise both hands toward everyone.
