Chapter 519 - SHOCKING THE WHOLE WORLD (1) (1/2)
The birds chirping drowned by the sound of steel clashing. The wind brings about the scent of sweats and blood.
Azief is in his hut, his eyes closed.
Then he heard a sound and his eyelids opened. He looks at the source of the sound and then he nodded like he was digesting something.
Then he smiles and close his eyes again.
That is what he did for a few hours. Once in a while that sound stopped and he would close his eyes for a long time.
When the sound sounded again, he would open his eyes and look at it again.
All these hours, there is someone beside him attending to his every orders and informing him in details of how the battle outside fared
That person in Han Xiao, one of the Three Devils of Han. The Crippled Devil was summoned by Azief when the battle outside the hut begins.
Challenging the Flowing Sword Arts Meet has begun
Outside the hut, the sound of sword clashing and striking each other could be heard.
Azief sometimes opens his eyes and when he saw the martial arts of those schools or sects that challenge his disciple, if he deemed his disciple could defeat it, he would then close his eyes while analyzing the enemy's martial arts and swordsmanship
While he was doing this, the Supreme Swordsmanship manual that he intends to create gradually took a form in his mind.
When Xi Feng comes out from his residence, the Three Devils of Han protected him by forming a protective circle of protection around him.
Azief and Xi Feng both had considers the possibility that the schemer might attacked in the beginning of the ceremony.
And maybe the schemers don't even have to show themselves as they could goad the heterodox sect to kill Xi Feng from the very beginning.
Thankfully nothing happened. After Xi Feng have arrived at the platform, The Three Devils acted like the officiator and judges of the Meet
They lay down a few rules that needed to be followed.
If not, they declared that they would interfere in the battle.
While The Three Devils of Han is not really a grandmaster level in the martial arts world, they have already seen the prowess of Han Xiao at the foot of the mountain.
The Crippled Devil seems to already reached the border to reach the grandmaster level and the other is not sure what kind of power level that the other two devils have achieved.
And the people here did not forget that the Three Devils of Han possess the Unity in One Internal skills that enables them to transfer their internal energy to each other
If two of them transfer their energy to one of them, one of the Three Devils could have the ability in par with a grandmaster.
The rules laid out was simple.
Everyone could challenge Xi Feng but once you have lost you must not attack him again and so does the school or sect you represent.
And after every fight, Xi Feng would be allowed to take half an hour break. The challenger is also disqualified if they went out of bounds from the stone platform.
For this Challenging the Flowing Sword Arts Meet, there is a circular stone platform that is prepared for the challengers.
The stage was a circular stage carved from rocks.
It was Azief handiwork.
No one knows how Azief did it and the Three Devils of Han was afraid to ask while Xi Feng also did not want to ask.
