Chapter 108 108
?There was a riot in the audience seats when they saw the two girls exchange with Tenku. Even though it only happened briefly and was done secretly, the audience noticed it.
"What the hell!? Why were the two flowers from Beijing looking and talking to him before they entered the arena!?"
"I am annoyed! I don't want our goddess to be touched by the Japanese!"
"I can understand if he is close to Wang Ruyue, but why does Huang Yuxin look intimate with him!"
The spectators shouted angrily and looked at Tenku with bloodshot eyes, especially the men. They wished they could kill Tenku with their stares.
On the high platform, the patriarch and the elders of the Gu family were in a good mood after Gu Qingyang's victory over Long Aotian. Meanwhile, the Long family was left speechless in a gloomy atmosphere after their first genius was defeated and seriously injured.
"Wasn't Gu Qingyang's attack too vicious!? He should be able to defeat Aotian without seriously injuring him!" One of the Long family elders retorted. He is Long Haocun.
Long Haocun was angry because Gu Qingyang had seriously injured Long Aotian. He knew that such incidents were common in a match. But because of that, Long Aotian would not be able to join the battle for third place. His current state did not allow him to fight, and the culprit was Gu Qingyang.
"If you can't accept it, you'd better tell Jin Zhaohui and the referees in the arena. Why are you complaining about it when they said nothing about the match? You should follow the example of the third elder of the Wang family.
He could still keep his composure after seeing his grandson get defeated and might have to stop being a cultivator because of the battle. He kept silent because he knew that his grandson was weak." Gu Yuxuan glanced at the Wang family's seat and deliberately brought up Wang Xin's matter to embarrass and anger them.
"Gu Yuxuan! I will fight you to the death if you dare say that again!" The third elder of the Wang family, Wang Shengzi, Wang Xin's grandfather, stood up from his seat and shouted at Gu Yuxuan.
"Ooh... Do you think I'm afraid of you? You are no different from your grandson, weak. If you want to fight, then I will serve you." Gu Yuxuan got up from his seat and said in a provocative tone.
"Gu! Yu! Xuan! I will kill you!" Wang Shengzi roared, and his cultivation base at the great perfection of the Sky Origin realm burst out from his body.
"Come to me!" Gu Yuxuan smiled playfully. He also released his strength with the same cultivation base as Wang Shengzi. But before they moved to attack, the voices of all the patriarchs on the high platform stopped them.
"Stop!"
"Don't fight in this place!" Jin Zhanjian said angrily. The patriarchs of other families were also displeased with their behavior, especially towards Gu Yuxuan. But they chose to remain silent and allow the city lord to speak.
"Please sit back in your seats, Shengzi. You will interfere with the martial arts competition if you fight here. Do you want the event to be postponed because of this problem?" Wang Hongli warned.
"Return to your place, Yuxuan. Don't say unnecessary things." Gu Tianba said coldly to Gu Yuxuan.
Although he was happy to see the Wang family embarrassed, he didn't want to openly find trouble with them in front of the patriarchs and elders of the other major families because doing so would make them look like the guilty party. The other families might be displeased and join the Wang family to fight against the Gu Family. Gu Tianba didn't want that to happen.
"I understand." Gu Yuxuan and Wang Shengzi answered simultaneously and sat back in their seats.
Gu Yuxuan clenched his fists tightly and was angry with how Gu Tianba spoke to him in public. He looked more like a subordinate of Gu Tianba than an elder from the Gu family. But he could only stay silent and keep that hatred in his heart.
After Wang Shengzi sat down, he took a deep breath to calm his mind. But then he heard a voice beside him, which made him displeased.
"What Gu Yuxuan said is the truth. Wang Xin lost because he was weak. So you shouldn't get angry and make trouble here." The second elder of the Wang family, Wang Minghao, said in a low voice.
"You don't have to meddle in my business. You'd better think of your cowardly grandson who gave up before fighting." Wang Shengzi retorted in annoyance.
"You!" Wang Minghao was unhappy with Wang Shengzi's words. He was only the third elder and should have listened to Wang Minghao or given him a polite reply. But before he could continue his sentence, he stopped after noticing that Wang Hongli was glaring at him.
(I'll let you act as patriarch for a few more days. After the Gu family devours the Wang family and I become the new patriarch, I will torture you until you beg me to die!)
Wang Minghao gritted his teeth and looked at Wang Hongli hatefully. What he wanted was not much different from Gu Yuxuan.
On the other hand, Wang Haotian just kept quiet and didn't want to interfere in their bickering. He focused on Wang Ruyue walking into the arena with her opponent. Wang Haotian noticed the two girls' exchange with Tenku and became annoyed with his disciple.
(This is troublesome. I didn't expect their relationship to become that close in just such a short time. What has happened to them in the last few days? What irritated me was that brat dared to attract the attention of the girl from the Huang family after getting close to my granddaughter!
What's so attractive about him besides his natural talent for cultivation!? How dare he approach any other girl besides being close to Yue'er? I will teach him a lesson after this competition ends!)
Wang Haotian grumbled in his mind. He was annoyed that Wang Ruyue had become so intimate with Tenku. Wang Haotian wasn't angry because of their closeness, but he wasn't ready to leave his beloved granddaughter to someone else even though he was his only disciple.
Even though Wang Haotian had several times boasted about Wang Ruyue in front of Tenku and compared her to Setsuka, his intention was only to tease his disciple and not to match them. Besides, now that Tenku was close to Huang Yuxin, Wang Haotian was getting increasingly irritated.
As Wang Haotian was deep in thought, he returned to his senses after hearing someone suddenly speak to him.
"Will Ruyue be able to win this match, Haotian?" Wang Hongli asked.
"Huh? Ah, it's hard to say because that girl from the Huang family is quite strong and can't lose to Yue'er. What's more, I also heard that her age is nineteen, and she has only focused on cultivating and practicing since she was young. So her combat experience might be above my granddaughter's. In the worst case, Yue'er might lose this match." Wang Haotian gave his opinion honestly.
"So we can't expect her to win in the match. After all, whatever the outcome would be the same, considering she would face Gu Qingyang in the next round. It might be better if she loses this fight." Wang Hongli replied calmly and did not look disappointed when he heard Wang Haotian's statement.
"Yes, you're right. She doesn't need to win this battle because we will be in first place in the competition regardless of the outcome of this match." Wang Haotian said confidently, and Wang Hongli was shocked after hearing his words. But Wang Haotian ignored his reaction. He glanced briefly at Tenku at the side of the arena and then returned his attention to Wang Ruyue.
Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin stood facing each other in the arena, and both wielded swords as their weapons. Since entering the arena, neither of the two girls spoke, making the atmosphere awkward. Wang Ruyue decided to open her mouth first and break up the situation.
"I will win this match." Wang Ruyue said with determination.
"Coincidentally, I also have the same thoughts as you. I will beat you in this fight." Huang Yuxin retorted, and her fighting intent was ignited.
"Is that so? Then, let's give our best in this battle, just like what Tenku said." Wang Ruyue smiled in response.
"Yes!" Huang Yuxin returned the smile and answered decisively.
"Are you ready?" Jin Zhaohui looked at the two girls and asked.
"Yes, we are ready!" Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue answered in unison.
"Then the fight begins!" Jin Zhaohui signaled the start of the match, and the two girls made their move simultaneously.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue clashed in the middle of the arena. In the blink of an eye, they had clashed swords a dozen times and still had not stopped.
Wang Ruyue slashed her sword vertically, and Huang Yuxin moved sideways to avoid it. After that, Huang Yuxin counterattacked, but Wang Ruyue easily parried it. But Huang Yuxin's attacks didn't stop there as she threw consecutive thrusts after Wang Ruyue blocked her sword.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Wang Ruyue blocked several of Huang Yuxin's stabs and avoided the others. Then the two quickly kept their distance after noticing their attacks weren't working. But they only briefly stopped in their positions and made another attack. The two girls slashed their swords at the same time.
Clank!
Their blades clashed and created shockwaves around the arena. Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue were knocked back five steps by the impact of their attacks.
"As I thought, you got stronger!" Wang Ruyue said and looked at her trembling sword.
"You are the same. As expected of the genius of the Wang family." Huang Yuxin retorted and moved her fingers which were numb from the clash.
"How about we cut off this warm-up and get into the real battle?" Wang Ruyue turned her eyes to Huang Yuxin and smiled.
"I have the same thought as you." Huang Yuxin nodded in agreement with Wang Ruyue's words.
Following that, the cultivation base at the late stage of the Earth Origin realm exploded from the bodies of the two girls. They both compressed the Qi within their swords and relaunched their attack. The two suddenly disappeared from their positions and reappeared in the middle of the arena with their swords already slashed.
Boom!
The impact of their attacks shattered the arena beneath them. The two girls moved at high speed to the side of the arena and collided their swords again.
Boom!
Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue returned to their original positions and compressed more Qi in their weapons. Huang Yuxin's sword was covered with blazing flames, while Wang Ruyue's blade released a bright light like the moonlight. The two of them charged at the same time and slashed their swords.
Burning Slash!
Arc Moon Slash!
