Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

Chapter 54 Importance Of The Fate And Luck Of A Cultivator 2...

The previous match ended and now, Elder Joules had announced the next match.

"Next! Carla versus Nora."

Those words took the crowd by surprise. The reason was that both ladies that had been announced were quite wonderful exceptions. Their pairing for a battle was very well set by fate.

Carla was the only other person aside from Cablen that had an A-grade Dantain. She was the same person that had used a bad sword on the boulder and it broke, with half of it landing directly in between the Chief's crouch.

After that event, Chief Dona promised her that he would get her a new sword. This was not a thing that took much time. As of the time, he said this, an elder had sent the message to a blacksmith and a sword had already arrived.

Carla had two years on Nora, but because of obvious malnutrition, she looked just as small. She came from a poor background and was fortunate to have gotten the opportunity to participate in the Academy program for cultivators.

If Nora had not come out with her S-grade Dantain, Carla would most likely have been more celebrated. However, regardless of the circumstances, Carla was very hard-working. She had done magnificently well in the Boulder test. And that was even with a bad sword.

However, Fate probably had it out for this girl. Her current opponent was the sweetheart of the clan. The same person that was tagged has heaven's own child.

Nora was already a cultivator at the middle Wood rank. She was currently the highest amongst the cultivators.

While Carla was very much still in the early Wood rank.

As far as anybody was concerned, this fight would probably not last two strikes from Nora before it would end.

Both participants took to the fighting ground and Elder Joules gave permission for the fight to start.

"You may commence!"

Immediately she gave the order.

*Swoosh!* like a comet rushing for the earth, Carla did not give an opportunity for Nora to prepare. She immediately attacked with her sword hitting as hard as she could.

*Clang!*

The first hit caught Nora unaware, sending her screeching against the earth. Nora managed to get her footing but before she could think of rising her spirit energy, she was attacked again.

Chiron watched this fight with much attention and could not help but smile a bit. He could not deny that he was actually quite impressed with this chosen strategy that Carla employed.

In fact, in his own head, he could not have thought of a better way than the method she was using.

Carla's plan was simple. She did not want to give Nora any breathing space for her to use her spirit energy.

These cultivators were still in the early stages of cultivation. They were not yet at the level where their spirit energy was used as instinctively as raising one's hand to swat a noisy fly.

This was the loophole that Carla was taking advantage of. She knew that Nora needed a few seconds to control her breathing and arouse her spirit energy.

This was something she could not allow. That was because if Nora used her spirit energy, Carla knew that she would be at a major disadvantage. But this move Carla was carrying out, was in itself a double-edged sword.

If Nora needed time to rise her spirit energy, then so did she. At the moment, she was betting her win in this fight on just one thing. Which was naturally her skill and stamina.

chief Dona watched the fight between both girls and nodded his head accordingly. Carla was putting significant pressure on Nora with her continuous strikes.

Nora had no choice but to continually defend as she took several steps back in retreat.

However, as Chiron watched the fight, it was not long before he noticed something. In fact, it was a relevant question he had asked himself from the beginning of the fight.

How could Carla with her weak body that was obviously malnourished compare to that of Nora's?

On top of that, Nora had been taught by not just Aleen but many of the elders of the clan over and over again. Surely, she had an arsenal of skills that she was not using.

Chiron had a closer look at his sister and then a slight smile stained a corner of his lips. He could not help but think that this move of hers was truly a very good one.

Nora by now was aware of Carla's plan. However, since this was the game Carla wanted to play, she decided to play one of her own.

Yes! at this point, it was no longer just a sword fight, but rather, it was now a game of stamina.

Or rather, it was a competition to see who will first get tired.

Nora no longer retreated in an effort to find the opportunity to use her spirit energy. Rather, she also aggressively attacked her opponent.

*Clang! Clang!! Clang!!!*

The hit of sword against sword rang across the open field as both girls relentlessly attacked one another.

And then it happened. Both swords hit each other, with both girls staring at each other fiercely in the eyes. Neither of them wanted to give up, but Chiron could see it.

Carla's fingers vibrated fiercely. However, he was not the only person to have observed this.

Carla's fingers had become too weak to continue her assault. Her fingers had become weak and her breathing had become rapid.

Nora noticed that the pressure her opponent was exacting had reduced and this encouraged her to hit harder than before.

*Clang!* Clang!!* CLANG!!!*

One last hit and Carla's fingers could no longer take it. Her sword fell to the ground and Nora pointed her sword at the girl's neck.

The match ended with Carla's loss and Nora's win.

,m Chiron smiled. This match ended as he expected.

Elder Joules announced the end of the match and called out for the next one to start.

"Next Match Cablen Vesus...."
