Jaegok made a deal with the bandits in the previous chapter. Readers are curious to find out about the rest of the journey in The Edgeless Sword From The Village Chapter 17.
Jaegok could not believe those bandits were using such powerful techniques against him. Even though he tried not to see blood, he had to step up his game to win against those bandits.
Master Ma reminded Jaegok that he was struggling against a guy like that, so he should forget about conquering the heavenly dragon sword.
Jaegok informed Master Ma that he was not sure what he was talking about as he was fighting against three people for the first time.
On top of that, Yijong had warned him not to shed any blood. Master Ma told Jaegok the spear was flying, and Jaegok somehow managed to dodge it.
Master Ma reminded Jaegok that no matter how unworthy the opponent was, he could not afford to lose his focus during a fight.
Jaegok told Master Ma to stop grumbling because he was just watching the fight. But he knew Master Ma’s words were not wrong because he looked away in the middle of the fight without any experience with multiple opponents.
Jaegok knew that if he did not gain experience in real fights against those punks, he would never be able to gain it.
Recap
Those bandits decided to attack Jaegok with a soulful strike, with his plum blossom in full bloom. Plum blossoms appeared out of nowhere, in full bloom, so everyone was shocked that Jaegok was not just using some empty words.
They realized at that very moment that they had picked the wrong person to mess with. Jaegok showcased the plum blossom in nine variations, but everyone was trying to avoid it.
But it was not possible, and they started calling for help as everyone knew they were going to die. But all of a sudden, Jaegok stopped all his attacks, and he gave up on winning the fight.
Because he realized that those bandits had lost their courage to fight, he told everyone to get out of there, and he was proud of himself.
But Master Ma told him he used a butcher knife to kill a chicken, so he considered that Jaegok was just the same as everyone else.
He reminded Jaegok to only use as much strength as was necessary. He mentioned that even though Jaegok found a safe sparring partner, he let them go away so easily.
Jaegok was not sure why the master was making such a big deal out of it when he had already won the fight. Yijong told Jaegok it was simply a matter of a lack of experience since his master had always been his sparring partner.
He could not control his strength either, so the competition was a good experience for him. Master Ma agreed that Yijong would gain some experience from his fight.
Yijong asked Master Ma if Jaegok had mastered the jade ring sword. Master was surprised that Yijong knew about that because Jaegok had not shown it to anyone.
Yijong explained that he was surprised while looking at the plum blossom of Jaegok. Because he thought that such a strong sword could also express the versatility of the plum blossom sword, he was sure that if Jaegok did his best, it would be more powerful than anyone else’s plum sword.
