The bamboo forest shook with every clash.
Clang! Boom!
Two Li Mings moved like lightning—one shining with calm golden Qi, the other blazing with fierce arrogance.
Mirror Li Ming smirked. "You've gotten stronger… but strength without confidence is weakness!"
Li Ming blocked the strike with his sword, sliding back across the grass. "Confidence isn't shouting loud—it's standing tall when you're scared!"
Bai Guo circled above them, flapping wildly. "Descendant! Don't let the other you steal your hairstyle!"
Li Ming sighed. "I'm a bit busy, Bai Guo!"
Mirror Li Ming's blade came down fast. Sparks flew as Li Ming deflected it and spun, channeling his energy into a counter strike.
Golden Qi burst from his sword, cutting through the mist. The ground cracked beneath their feet.
But the mirror clone didn't slow down. He grinned. "Not bad… but you're holding back."
Li Ming frowned. "I'm fighting to grow, not to show off."
"Then you'll lose!"
