Chapter 52 (1/2)
In a Different World With the Naruto System, Chapter 52: Ranking Compet.i.tion (part 1)
“Winner, Ren Tianyou!” Seeing that Li Yi had already lost consciousness, the judge removed the barrier around the arena and simultaneously announced the winner of the match.
“This is your plate, you keep it well.” The judge took out a stamp like thing from his chest, then he placed that thing above the plate of Ren Tianyou and after that he tossed the plate to him.
Ren Tianou caught the plate. Originally there was not any design on the surface of the plate but now he saw that there was a star pattern above the gold colored plate. This was the proof of victory, and was necessary to partic.i.p.ate in next match. The unconscious Li Yi was carried him down from the arena by his cla.s.smates.
Ren Tianyou also stepped down from the arena. He estimate that there won’t be any match for him in the morning, or at least until afternoon. So he decided to watch the match of other peoples. At that time, Ren Tianyou discovered Yan Xinluo on the arena, he saw that Yan Xinluo had just stepped on the arena, as always his face was completely devoid of emotion and was firmly staring at his opponent.
The opponent of Yan Xinluo was also from warrior court, and had the strength of about great swordsman level. Along with the announcement from the judge to start of the match, the opponent of Yan Xinluo immediately dashed towards Yan Xinluo with a huge sword in his hand. When the distance between them was just 2 or 3 meter, suddenly an earth colored radiance of the battle qi appeared around the body of the opponent. Then he waved his huge sword with his both hands and heavily hit the ground in front to him.
“Earth explosion!”
“Hong!” A huge sound of explosion rang, then the surface of the earth started to split open and advance towards Yan Xinluo at a high speed. This attack caused a deep ravine to appear on the stone of the arena.
Yan Xinluo was calmly looking at the approaching attack. Just when this attack was going to hit him, a grey colored undead battle qi appeared around the body of Yan Xinluo. A short sword was already in his right hand. Then he poured his undead battle qi into his short sword. After that, he quickly threw his short sword towards the incoming attack. Shortly afterwards his right foot heavily stepped on the ground, and then he dashed in a high speed following his own short knife.
Merely after 2 seconds, the short sword of Yan Xinluo and ‘earth explosion’ made a contact with each other. In a flash, the grey colored battle qi pour out from that short knife, and covered the earth explosion’s yellow colored sword slash. And the yellow colored sword slash was completely corroded. Even after that the speed of the short knife didn’t decrease, and still advanced towards the opponent of Yan Xinluo.
That guy only saw that his attack was destroyed in a flash, furthermore he had fell into a perilous situation because of that single counter attack. Seeing the speed of that short sword, that fellow was completely surprised. And without wasting any time he waved his huge sword to block that short sword. But is he really able to block it?
“Ding!” A metal colliding sound rang. Afterwards that fellow felt that his both hands were hit by the huge force of 10000 ton. Then suddenly he felt that his blood started to flow in reverse, and blood started to gush out from his mouth. Both of his hands were completely numb, and the huge sword he was holding dropped from his hand. After that he had no other choice but to helplessly look at the weapon in front of him which was advancing towards his face. So he gave up all his hope and closed his eyes.
But even after a long time, he didn’t felt any pain, so he couldn’t help but open his eyes to confirm. Just when he opened his eyes, he saw that the tip of that short sword was just before his eyes. It was less than 3 centi-meter away from his nose. Seeing this he couldn’t help but suddenly felt a deep fear causing him to retreat few steps back and fell down on the ground.
Seeing this, the judge announced Yan Xinluo as the winner of the match. Hearing the announcement of his victory, Yan Xinluo withdrew his sword and returned it inside its sheath. Then he stretched his hand and catch the number plate which was tossed by the judge. After that he stepped down from the arena.
“I have never thought that this undead battle qi actually had this powerful corroding effect. Its power is comparable to dark system battle qi’s corroding affect. This undead battle qi is quite abnormal ah.” Seeing the corroding effect of undead battle qi, Ren Tianyou unconsciously muttered to himself.
Among the crowd, watching the match of Yan Xinluo, a young man wearing the fairy red colored magic robe showed the smiling expression. Then without looking back he left that area.
