Famed Duel[]

It was said that a ronin came to the Nahan province and challenged an aged Ashidaka. The duelist used to buffet his opponents with insults until they were enraged, so he would easily claim victory. For the entire duel, the ronin hurled insult after insult, and after ten minutes, he humbly bowed, conceding defeat. [2]
