How very despicable!
In front of the beauties, this Zhou Mu wanted to use me as a stepping stone to show off? This behavior was so despicable. Even if he wanted to attract Lin Wan Er’s attention, he did not need to challenge me to a spar. And also…. after the incident at the company, her beautiful arcs kept me up every night. I could not lose face in front of Lin Wan Er….
At that moment, I glanced over at Lin Wan Er. I was surprised when I saw her looking back at me. Her cheeks turned slightly pink as she looked at me with eyes filled with resentment. In a low angry voice, she said: “Xiao Yao, you pervert….”
My heart sank, as it became clearer and clearer; Lin Wan Er seemed to be able to sense what people were thinking…. Could this be Mind Reading?!
…
This won’t do. I couldn’t lose face anymore, not in front of Lin Wan Er. To Dong Cheng Yue, I seemed strong; Today, I would win!
I stood up and put down my milk tea, smiling: ”Okay. Since Zhao Mu invited me so kindly, I will join you in a spar. Let’s be careful and not injure each other…”
Zhao Mu laughed: “Don’t worry, I won’t injure you.”
I furrowed my brow. These people were really egotistical. No wonder the swordplay club was just one big violent group!
Wang Ran’s eyes grew wide: “Li Xiao Yao, can you do it? Zhao Mu’s North Star Style is unrivaled among the swordplay club. Even I can’t beat him.”
I nodded: ”Don’t worry!”
“Then… which weapon would you like? A bamboo sword?”
“Okay, Give me two!”
“Two?”
“Yes, two bamboo swords!”
“Ah, ok…”
…
Wang Ran personally handed me two bamboo swords. Holding them in my hand, they seemed so light compared to my Xiao Hei; they were as light as toys.
TL: Xiao Hei is Xiao Yao’s sword in real life
Zhao Mu gripped his bamboo sword with both hands. His eyes were filled with confusion: “Two swords? Did you think that having another sword will make you stronger?”
I laughed a little: “It is not like that. These bamboo swords are too light. With two, I can control the speed much better. However, it does hit harder.”
“Ba!” Zhao Mu said angrily: “Then I will give you a taste of the North Star Style’s most fearsome strike!”
Holding one bamboo sword in each hand, the blades became an extension of myself. With a faint smile, I said: “You only know that North Star Style’s most fearsome strike is the strike: Killing Intentions. You probably don’t know that the North Star Style came from Japan learning China’s Tang Dynasty’s swordsmanship. You also probably do not know China’s Han Dynasty’s borderland warriors use a dual swords style!
Zhao Mu coldly said: “Dual sword style? Okay, let us see if this Dual sword style is as impressive as it sounds….”
…
At the same time, loud sounds came from outside of the swordplay club. Many of the girls that were watching the basketball competition decided to come over. All of them had their eyes wide open like curious little babies.
“Wow, Isn’t that guy ‘Maniac Killer’ Zhao Mu? Who is he dueling?”
“A student that I don’t know, dual swords though…. wow, he looks very handsome holding two swords….”
“Its gonna be a good show.”
…
I wrinkled my brow and whispered: “Wang Ran, could you please close the club door?”
Wang Ran nodded. She quickly ran to the door but there were so many girls outside that Wan Ran couldn’t close the door. On the other hand, after they saw showdown here, everyone would probably leave.
“Can we start? Come!” I impatiently said.
Zhao Mu took a deep breathe and charged toward me while roaring loudly. Holding the blade with both hands, he rushed towards me with small steps. Suddenly, he quickly thrust the blade at a weird angle, aiming at my underarm. This is the North Star Style!
Twisting my wrist, I turned over my right hand. “Pah!” I blocked his blade with mine. Then I leaned forward and struck!
“Pah!”
Zhao Mu retreated a few steps and his complexion turned purple.
On the sidelines, the students stared on with dumbstruck eyes: “Wow, Zhao Mu’s attack was blocked? What kind of reaction speed does he have?”
I spread my two swords. With a slight laugh, I said: “Good, a blitz attack!”
“Pah!”
My sports shoes stamped on the ground and I sprung forward as fast as lightning. Afterwards, the dual blades began to dance!
“Oh….”
Zhao Mu immediately yelled out. He carelessly tried to block my attacks by placing his bamboo sword horizontally in front of his chest but he could not block my attacks. The dexterity of dual blades was incomparable to a single sword and I used almost every skill I knew from the Dual sword style to harass Zhao Mu.
“Pah! Pah! Pah!”
