Fortunately for the firebender, he's also got a few tricks up his sleeve, not the least or which being the speed of which he can swing that polearm. He just barely manages to twist his body in time to deflect one of Slade's arms with the spear. The second hand gets through, but the odd angle the boy had to contort himself into to parry the first hand meant that his jabs missed their intended targets. Sure, they hurt, but not enough to cut him off.
Not wasting a moment, Nezha flowed from the movement of the swing into a backward jab with the butt of the spear, aiming for Slade's stomach.]
