525 Elites from Various Places (1/2)

During the battle at Eternal Peace Temple, Happy had killed Blood Robes and Child's Heart.

While he was in Beijing, he fought against A'da and A'er, who were both Inaction Realm martial artists!

While he was at Mount Song, he killed Zhou Yu with just two moves!

While he was at the pavilion, he struck terror in Class One Hall and caused them to retreat by himself!

Happy's experiences could already be described with the word ”legend”. Lu Jing had never believed himself to be Happy's opponent since the start, so he had only been thinking about how he could last longer under Happy's hands and allow himself to lose with dignity.

However, Huang Rong's words and the punishment and reward quest she had spontaneously issued to him caused him to be impulsive, and he attacked desperately.

But when martial artists fought against each other, the greatest taboo among them was having an impulsive heart, because surging emotions could affect a person's calmness and judgment. To have concerns and other distracting thoughts was incredibly disadvantageous for them when they fought.

Lu Jing was a typical example of that.

Even though he wanted to perform a little better and force Happy to use Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, he forgot his initial reasoning due to his rashness.

The moment he attacked, he struck with his fiercest technique—Seventy-two Flute Technique. While he advanced, dazzling flute shadows filled the arena. They formed flickering jade green images that looked like a bamboo forest, and they gave others the feeling that they were attacked by countless enemies. The bamboo forest came charging at Happy with the force of an avalanche.

At the same time, flute sounds that filled the air rose alongside the jade green images. The shrill flute sounds charged violently at Happy like invisible and sharp swords.

But Happy was not affected. He stood on his spot quietly, and qi surged around him to withstand the impact from the sword-shaped charges from all around the place.

Then, when the astonishing bamboo forest came charging at him with the force of an avalanche like a huge tiger which had its jaws wide open, Happy finally took action.

Under the people's shocked gazes, he charged at the bloody mouth of the jade green tiger.

Happy's figure was instantly devoured by the tiger!

But just when Happy was about to be torn to pieces by the countless jade green flute sounds, a peerlessly dazzling sword force pierced the jade green tiger's body. It was instantly torn to countless fine green shadows.

The numerous flute sounds vanished from the arena to reveal the duo's situation.

When the people at the foot of the stage saw the arena clearly, they could not help but suck in sharp breaths.

*****

Drip, drip.

The two people in the arena retained their stances.

Brilliant red blood flowed out in streams. It dyed the hem of Lu Jing's robe before it fell on the stage and gathered into a crimson puddle under his body.

His face was pale, and he stared at the longsword that pierced his chest in disbelief. His expression was numb, and his chest heaved. He stared at his bleeding wound, which was only one inch away from his heart.

He had seen very clearly that if a powerful gust of wind from the foot of the stage had not cut through the air and knocked the longsword slightly to the side, the blade would have very accurately pierced his heart.

It was an extremely quick sword, and it was used in a straightforward thrust.

It had shot toward him when his momentum had been at its strongest, and not only had it completely destroyed his state of mind and disabled his subsequent moves, even his body fortification had not been able to block the tiny silver dragon…

It was just one move!

”You do indeed live up to your name as the top on Famous People Rank. You're amazing… cough!”

As Happy drew his sword, Lu Jing finally coughed up a mouthful of blood. He shuddered and instantly sank to his knees before sitting down powerlessly on the floor.

Happy cast Lu Jing a glance before he sheathed his sword while saying ”You lost fair and square. There are plenty of people who were killed instantly by this sword, and I was one of them.”
