Ross slammed the tip of his broadsword into the ground between Bruce's blade and his broad abdomen. The resulting noise resounded through the hall, but no harm befell the Gaian Giant. The point where Bruce's blade struck felt the pressure, where a slight discoloration noted a small amount of damage getting through its first layer of green steel. But the injury repaired itself, as Ki-based weapons would often do if they sustained any damage. Ross himself, didn't budge. 

	"That was a pretty strong swing, but Jenso's punch was a lot tougher!" Ross commented, "Come to think of it, I probably shouldn't have let him just hit me back then... Ah, well. I react a little differently to [i]blades[/i]." Ross hefted his great sword forwards with a bump of his left knee, pushing the massive blade towards Bruce in an upward swatting motion, while also tearing up a patch of earth as its tip dug out of the ground.
