00:00The boy picked up a leaf from the ground, without thinking, and threw it at the mighty dragon-slaying stone.
00:04The energy from that leaf was so strong that it split the enormous stone in two and divided all of New York in half.
00:10When people heard the thunderous noise, they rushed to the scene.
00:12Everyone was shocked by what they saw.
00:14The dragon-slaying stone had hardly ever been damaged in centuries, and now it had been shattered effortlessly by a single leaf.
00:19The energy of that leaf had even split the entire city.
00:22Seeing this, the master ordered that they find that great warrior, even if they could only learn a fraction of his techniques.
00:27He wanted his clan to become famous, but what he didn't know was that this great warrior was the very boy he had always been ashamed of.
00:34That boy was, in fact, the only Celestial Swordsman, and feeling that there was still a higher realm to reach, he had chosen to reincarnate and begin anew.
00:41He passed the title of master to his first disciple and descended into the world as a pure soul.
00:45Meanwhile, in a small secluded room, his mother was caring for him through her tears.
00:50Just as the soul of the Celestial Swordsman entered the boy, he awakened, and his mother wept with joy.
00:54But the doctor warned her that the boy carried a deadly cold within him, and only the snow flower of a Celestial Mountain could cure it.
01:00Since his mother came from humble origins, she had no way of obtaining such medicine.
01:04Even so, she made a firm decision.
01:06The next day, she enrolled in the Sword Platform Tournament, because the top ten winners would each receive a snow flower.
01:11The following day, the boy went to the training grounds and saw everyone gathered in front of the dragon-slaying stone.
01:16His eyes shone with golden light, and he noticed that although everyone possessed some inner energy, none of them had true spiritual energy.
01:23He sighed at how decadent this world had become.
01:25At that moment, a disciple leapt forward with his sword and struck the stone with all his might.
01:29A golden light burst through the air, and the disciple was sent flying several meters back.
01:34Frustrated, he couldn't believe that after so many years of practice, he couldn't even leave a scratch on the stone.
01:39The others laughed at him, because only absolute geniuses could leave a mark there.
01:42And in centuries, only two had succeeded.
01:45Everyone left.
01:45Later, when no one was around, the boy picked up another leaf from the ground and hurled it forward.
01:49And that was how the video began.
01:51The leaf split the stone in two.
01:53The master, seeing such a powerful display, dreamed of approaching that warrior.
01:56But he didn't know that the boy had already gone with his mother to the sword platform.
01:59According to the rules, those who ranked in the top ten would win a snow flower.
02:03Yet the master didn't even notice the mother with her son.
02:05In fact, he still thought the boy was his disgrace.
02:07Everyone believed that the woman would die for participating.
02:10Then the master's eldest son challenged her.
02:12She stepped onto the stage without hesitation, determined to save her child.
02:16But the young man showed no respect and fought her with cruelty.
02:18She couldn't withstand it, and was gravely injured in just a few blows.
02:22The young man's mother shouted that she deserved to die there.
02:24And her son took the chance to deliver the finishing strike.
02:26Everyone thought there was no way to survive.
02:28But the boy spoke.
02:29He said that if one could see the real and the false,
02:32at the center of the light the sword was shadow.
02:34And with a single strike, it could be broken.
02:36Everyone laughed at the boy.
02:37The young man's mother looked at him with disdain,
02:39and declared that if the woman managed to break the technique,
02:41she would give her the snow flower and kneel to beg forgiveness.
02:44The woman heard this, and though she risked her life,
02:46she decided to follow her son's words.
02:48She entered the center of the attack and broke it,
02:50even injuring the young man's hand.
02:52Everyone was in shock.
02:53But though she won, no one wanted to keep their word.
02:55The second daughter wanted to defend the boy,
02:57but she was scolded by the young man's mother,
02:59who refused to honor her promise.
03:00Not even the master intervened.
03:02The young man took the chance to humiliate the woman,
03:04ordering her to crawl beneath him.
03:05When the boy saw his mother about to endure such humiliation,
03:08he shouted for her to stop.
03:10But even so, she accepted it.
03:11And just as she finished, the young man insulted her again,
03:14saying that if the boy was really a celestial swordsman,
03:17then he should prove it.
03:18The boy stepped forward fearlessly,
03:19whispered a few words to his mother,
03:21then walked straight toward the young man.
03:22He shouted a single word,
03:24Sword come!
03:24In an instant, thousands of swords flew forth like rivers.
03:28The impact was so great,
03:29that even the disciples on the celestial mountain felt it.
03:32One of them immediately set out for the place.
