"What's wrong, did I strike a nerve?"
"My mouth is on my own body, I can say whatever I want, whenever I want, what business is it of yours?"
Ma Yihong grew up surrounded by righteous people and had never dealt with such ruffians. His face flushed with anger, he shouted loudly:
"You're spouting nonsense here, of course it's my business to manage you!"
The person was about to retort sarcastically when he suddenly noticed the blue long blade behind Ma Yihong. Though sheathed, it concealed the Shark Tooth Sword's edge, obviously an extraordinary weapon. Feeling intimidated, he still didn't want to lose face, so he braced himself and said:
"Who are you anyway? Some official or a master teacher?"
"This is Great Qin, and I am a citizen of Great Qin. With so many adults inside Xiong City, how could it be your turn, a young man, to manage me?"
Just after saying that, someone beside them suddenly shouted:
"That sword... he's Ma Yihong from Chaozhou, with the Shark Tooth Sword!"
