Chapter 49: Protagonist Vs Villain
"Just where did he go?"Su Lin mumbled with a darkened gaze.
She had tried to look for Leon but it was of no avail. She even contacted his parents, but they ignored the topic as if Leon didn't mean anything to them rather they sounded happy in his absence.
Su Lin also hired some people to look after but it was quite difficult to search for him. The place he lived had no CCTV cameras and the servants serving him had been taken away by Befort and kept hidden.
Few tried to use Blood Mystic Arts to trace the blood sample that had been dried off the floor but for some unusual reason, the blood-tracking failed which only happens if the person is dead or wasn't present in the world currently.
She even looked for Seph who just feigned ignorance.
"Soon, there will be a Spirit awakening ceremony. If Leon managed to awaken a high-level spirit, he might have a chance of being scouted by the Federation army, and if he rose in position there, he could have formed his backing."
By the end of 4th year of student, those who have managed to become Martial Disciples would have to serve in the army voluntarily and fight in a Dimensional plane invaded by other races.
Even a low-born one can rise to someone of high authority if he manages to persist there. At the beginning of 3rd year, the Federation Army had already started paying attention to the genius to nurture them later in the army as humans lacked in number compared to the other side.
"Just where did you go? Did you run away by yourself or did someone have a hand in your disappearance?"
Su Lin felt immensely frustrated as well as irritated by her helplessness. She realized that Leon was correct about her.
Even if she was like a Princess and had a great background, all of this was nothing but in vain as she herself lacked power.
"I thought he would soon start to shine after changing for good but..."
"Why...Why is this world like this? Not giving a chance to the weaker one."
Su Lin couldn't help but remember the brief yet impactful impression Leon left on her when he stood against the Principal and confronted Ella.
"Miss Su!"
Her office room was banged open and a teacher screamed.
"Yes?"Su Lin jumped up from her seat in shock."Why are you screaming?"
"You don't know," She shouted in shock and hurriedly"There is a spar between the third year."
"Now who is messing around?"Su Lin grumbled with a dissatisfied expression.
"It's between Seph and Lin Fang."
When Su Lin heard the name, she wanted to hit her head.
'These kids...Can't they just rest?'
'Why are you making difficult things for teachers? If someone got injured, it would be us who would be criticized.'
Su Lin didn't want to go but she had to as she was one of the people who was in charge of 3rd Year.
...
"Did you see that Lin Fang, he beat the shit out of others in the ranking?"
"I never knew such a menace existed in our school. He challenged the top 10 in a single day and defeated the 9 now he is facing Seph."
"I don't think Seph had a chance."
The crowd went nuts praising Lin Fang for his courageous endeavor. Those who just knew him as John's sidekick couldn't believe that he had been hiding packing power.
Out of everyone, John's mood was sour. With family resources, he had managed to get into the top 20 but Lin Fang just slapped him in his face by entering the top.
Moreover, it was his underlying, whom he had fed for many days only to get beaten by him.
His face burnt with shame and embarrassment.
'Che! I thought that with Leon missing, I could finally enjoy it but here comes another eyesore.'
"Don't demean Seph. He is stronger. Just watch and see how he beats Lin Fang."Ella standing among the crowd shouted in Seph's support.
Following her, the girls started cheering for Seph while the boys, feeling jealous, prayed in their hearts for Lin Fang to win.
"Starfall Slash,"Lin Fang yelled, slashing down the long sword in his hand, a terrifying sword aura followed his movement.
The horror of the sword energy can be felt by everyone close to the stage.
Those who practiced swordsmanship can feel a trace of the sword's intent in it.
"I found this swordsmanship from the Huayuan Sect inheritance. This is an Epic Tier Martial Art. You can't stop it, Seph , give up."
Lin Fang's eyes were filled with endless anger and hatred.
The moment he saw Seph he wasn't able to hide his murderous intent which was noticed by the other side.
He tried to compose himself but the moment Seph talked about defeating him....., Lin Fang decided to step out.
He begins his assault by beating everyone on the ranking board except Seph who was ranked 1.
'Watch over me as I take this small step to repay the debt of blood.'
Although he knew that his sword was fatal and he attacked intending to kill, there were masters surrounding the place to take action to resolve the crisis.
And if by chance they weren't able to react and Seph died, he would be happier than anyone else.
Seph with a sneer called his sword.
A ray of light flashed by and a long blade appeared in his hands gleaming with cold air, Seph eyes locked onto the huge sword energy chopping down upon him from the sky.
Seph spoke with the corners of his mouth slightly raised making him more haughty," I have a problem"
"I just don't like people who act overbearingly standing in front of me.'
Facing such an overwhelming attack, Seph didn't panic. He slowly raised his blade horizontally as if accumulating his energy.
"Stop resisting and accept defeat..."
Lin Fang laughed but his laughter stopped seeing Seph slashed out which made his eyes widen.
"What?"
A terrifying and abnormal sword energy chopped his attack with lightning speed.
BOOM!
The Spiritual energy in Lin Fang's slash shattered and dissipated as it touched Seph's attack.
A powerful gust of wind radiated all around filling the entire place.
The crowd near the place turned silent.
A sense of exasperation washed over everyone as they saw how Seph dealt with Lin Fang easily.
"Your attack is too showy. Let me teach you what's called a fatal blow."
