Chapter 369 - I’ll Take Revenge for You (1/2)
Chapter 369 I’ll Take Revenge for YouWith his eyes narrowed, Gao Ge looks at the battlefield.
An old man of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect takes a step forward with a list in his hand, saying loudly, “Beat the drums!”
There are three big drums on both sides of the battlefield. Six female disciples of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect with great body shapes, are dressed in plain dress. They start to beat the drums. The sound spreads really far.
Then the old man holding the list speaks again, “Liang Qiu, disciple of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect, fall out! Li Hui, student of Haicheng Cultivation Academy, fall out!”
The two young men of about the same age, stand face to face.
The disciple of Xiaoshan Sword Sect bows to Li Hui with joined hands.
Li Hui doesn’t understand his behavior but he still greets in return. He just draws a dipper with a gourd as a model!
He has learnt about this at Haicheng Cultivation Academy.
Without any words, Liang Qiu holds the sword and strikes at Li Hui. As he strikes his move, Gao Ge can’t help frowning. Regardless of Liang Qiu’s capability, the first sword move is rather sharp and neat at a spotless angle. He deserves to be the disciple of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect!
Li Hui majors in martial arts rather than swordsmanship, who practices Mountain Shaking Fist.
He throws a punch at the sword. To his surprise, the strength on his fist is instantly cracked by the sword.
The sword goes directly at Li Hui, making him greatly astonished.
From Liang Qiu’s eyes, he sees the killing intent.
This is the first time that he has seen the killing intent in the opponent’s eyes.
In light of his instinct for survival, he keeps retreating with his mind going blank.
As to an ordinary man, even if he is a combat master and often plays matches, he will have a feeling of an unimaginable worry when his opponent really wants to kill him.
Suddenly, a look of fierceness crosses Liang Qiu’s face.
He shouts and gives off a killing intent again.
With his shout, he also takes a step forward swiftly and stabs at Li Hui’s throat with his sword.
Luckily, Li Hui reacts fast enough. He puts his head slightly back, or he will die for sure.
The students of Haicheng Cultivation Academy also appear confused.
Li Hui is their classmate, so they still know how capable he is.
He is not the top student among them, but he is still above the average. Moreover, he has eaten a lot of serpent meat on the Moon Peak and achieved breakthrough in terms of capability.
At least, they are aware that Li Hui is not that weak.
Li Hui has just dodged a fatal strike, but the situation isn’t reversed.
Li Hui is still passively beaten and may die anytime.
He is like dancing on the blade. Students of Haicheng Cultivation Academy feel so worried for Li Hui.
“Why is this happening…” One of the students says in a low voice.
Xia Lu, standing beside them, snorts with her arms around her chest, saying, “What for? When you step on the arena, you will face the same thing, okay?”
The students of the Haicheng Cultivation Academy look at Xia Lu with staring eyes in shock.
Xia Lu sighs and says, “Every onlooker may find it a disgrace that the one who is about to be beheaded cries in misery on the execution ground just because it doesn’t hurt to look on and talk. They don’t feel the pain of the man to be beheaded. You and the students of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect are neck and neck in terms of capability. The real gap is that you haven’t realized that this is a life-and-death fight.”
“We have known that!” A student says in a low voice.
“You’ve known it but you are not well prepared for it.” Xia Lu feels it necessary for her to tell them clearly about the situation in case that those who are to compete afterwards still feel confused then.
She turns around and stares at the students, saying clearly and seriously, “From now on, you must keep in mind that those people, the disciples of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect, really want to kill you. When they come at you with their swords full of killing intent, are you really ready for that?”
