Chapter 826 - Mine (1/2)
It would seem that Chen Feng had earned the wrath of the other competitors. The Martial Emperors in the arena were all glaring at him indignantly and gritting their teeth.
Lu De coughed to break the tension and bellowed, “I will now announce the rules of the competition. There is only one rule. You may not use lethal weapons and do not go any further than necessary. Everyone must listen to…”
He abruptly stopped talking midway through his briefing, for Xiao Luo teleported onto the stage with no warning and startled Lu De with his sudden appearance.
It was when he was only on stage that Xiao Luo distinctly heard the rules mentioned by Lu De and he hurled the Dragon Saber backward with his left hand. It soared tens of meters through the air like a magical blade and landed next to Ghost. The sheath of the sword sank some five to six centimeters into the dirt, and the Dragon Saber stood dead straight like a pole planted in the ground.
It was not to show off, for the Dragon Saber would only recognize its master, so Ghost could not hold on to it. Otherwise, Xiao Luo would have tossed the sword right into her hands.
However, no one noticed the Dragon Saber. They only caught a glimpse of a sudden movement Xiao Luo made on stage.
“This young man is super fast. Even I cannot perceive his moves.”
Lu De muttered to himself as he stared at Xiao Luo with fear showing in his age-worn eyes.
The other Martial Emperors who joined the competition gawked at Xiao Luo anxiously. They could sense the potent energy emanating from the lad standing before them. Of course, most of the spectators had no idea what was going on.
“Huh? We now have a Martial Master who dares to go up to join the fun. Is he not biting more than he can chew?”
“Everyone wants a God Weapon. But I think these guys have gone overboard in their quest to get one.”
“Well, we shall see how they will die later. A Martial Master and a Martial Spirit—nothing more than a couple of dumb pigs!”
The crowd standing below the stage continued to ridicule Xiao Luo and Chen Feng.
Meanwhile, Chen Feng’s companions were smiling. Their faces were full of confidence, and they looked at the surrounding spectators as if they were looking at fools.
The Martial Emperors on the stage had got over the surprise of the two young men joining the competition. The skinny middle-aged Martial Emperor sneered, “Are all Martial Masters and Martial Spirits these days so arrogant? I do not know what gives insignificant fighters like you the courage to go after the God Weapons!”
Both Xiao Luo and Chen Feng ignored his mocking remarks.
Chen Feng walked over to Xiao Luo to speak to him courteously, but Xiao Luo could sense his insincerity. “Brother Xiao, I bet your real cultivation level is not a Martial Master. Otherwise, you would not have come up here. Am I right?”
Xiao Luo only wanted the Time-Space Bracelet. He was not interested in such trivial discussions. Suddenly, he dashed across the stage and stood facing the skinny Martial Emperor and Chen Feng. He eyed them indifferently and said, “The Time-Space Bracelet is mine. Get down, both of you!”
He spoke softly but in a commanding tone, and there was little doubt he was demanding for their obeisance.
When the word spread out, the entire square plunged into silence. Then there was unrest in the crowd.
“What the? What the heck is the guy thinking?”
“He is just a puny Martial Master. What gives him the courage to speak like that to a Martial Emperor?”
“Crazy, he must be crazy. He became mad thinking about getting a god weapon.”
“Where is this guy from? Is he trying to make people laugh up there?”
“If it is a joke, then I guess he has done well because I am laughing. Haha, haha…”
Everyone in the audience mocked Xiao Luo as they considered him a fool who knew nothing about being honorable.
“Well, they may laugh at him now. But their eyes are going to pop out later,” Duck Emperor crowed as he casually picked his nose inside Ghost’s pocket. He knew people often underestimated Xiao Luo’s capabilities, only to be surprised later.
