As the referee announced the start of the match, Ning Xing made the first move.
He did not charge directly at Li Fei, but rapidly took seven steps, leaving a shadow at each original spot.
Li Fei could clearly see that with every step Ning Xing took, he would use his sword to strike the ground, injecting Force into it.
After seven steps, Ning Xing stood still for a moment, and seeing that Li Fei made no move, he changed direction and took another seven rapid steps.
After he finished, Ning Xing looked again at Li Fei, and seeing that Li Fei still made no move, he continued stepping.
"Is he setting up an array?"
As Ning Xing continued to step more and more, Li Fei gradually picked up on what was happening; the other party seemed to be setting up an array.
After continuing for forty-nine steps, Ning Xing paused briefly to recuperate, looked at Li Fei once more, then resumed stepping to expand the range of the array.
