The reeds flourished in water and easily formed huge ponds and marshes.

Ten miles outside of Xiangfan, the vast and vibrant reed marshes somehow seemed lifeless today.

In the northeast corner of the reed marshes, stood a man who looked like an ordinary farmer with a soft golden sword wrapped around his waist.

It was said that the Martial Review had ranked the same warrior eleventh two times in a row. This warrior mastered all weapons and had an insight into Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. However, such intelligence became a problem because he couldn't find a weapon that suited him best. In the end, he picked a soft sword. Once he put energy into it, he could use it as a sword, a spear, or an arrow accordingly.
