Chapter 150: [Bonus ]Final Fight
Two contestants walked onto the stage. One was a tall, handsome-looking man with long flowing hair. The other was a bald man with a well-muscled body.
The first person was a disciple of the Blue Dragon sect, and the second person was a disciple of the Red Tiger sect.
The host was the referee for this match and this was the final battle of the competition.
The blue-robed man took out a long spear, while the red-robed man took out a small metal club.
'Oh, that's an unusual weapon,' Ning thought. 'However, given his extreme physical strength, that will like work very well against the enemy if he can get close," Ning thought.
With a single shout from the host, the match started.
The red-robed man immediately dashed forward to get close and attack, but the blue-robed man didn't have such ideas. Instead, he jumped backward and at the same time attacked with his spear, sending out purple slices towards the bald man.
The bald man stopped the attack with his club but was in return forced to stop. He once again followed behind the blue-robed man, but the blue-robed man used some sort of movement technique and managed to easily dodge the bald man's attack.
Once he created some distance, he once again let out attacks with his spears. This time the attacks were much faster and stronger.
The bald man barely managed to put up his club, but two of the flying attacks managed to get through and hit the bald man's face, leaving two small cuts along his cheeks.
"Grrr," the bald man grunted and looked at the blue-robed man angrily before following him. The red-robed man kept on following his opponent for a few more turns before he finally managed to corner him.
Seeing that there was no more way for him to run away, he finally stood his ground and fought with his spear.
CLANG
A moderately loud sound rang as the spear and the club rang. The bald man was a little surprised seeing a Qi cultivator being strong enough to block his attack.
Still, he tried to press on and attack. He brought the club back and slammed it down once more. The blue-robed man hit the club from the side and slid it down his left side, barely missing his shoulders.
With the same movement, he then pushed forth his spear and cut the right side of the bald man's face, introducing another cut along his face.
He then escaped from the corner and started running around to send out long-distance attacks.
"That fighting style is quite cowardly don't you guys think?" One of the red-robed elders near Ning said.
"Yes, it is. However, that doesn't mean it's a bad fighting style. Especially since it works," one of the blue-robed elders said.
"Sigh, I can't argue against that. However, we are used to seeing more brutal and intense fights in the Red Tiger sect. Seeing such a cowardly approach to a battle just makes the victory feel underserved," another red-robed elder said.
"I think that is because the disciples aren't used to fighting someone that just wants to go into close combat. The closest fighters they fight are sword users, and even they don't ever come this close during battles," a blue-robed elder said.
"Yeah, I even explained to a few of them that despite not having the same body strength, their Qi will make up for in strength. But they seem to ignore that and just run around. I think they will understand that fighting head-on is not so bad against a body cultivator if they were made to fight with them a few more times," a blue-robed elder said.
"Yes. Also, our disciples only focus on the body and never techniques. I am going to force them to learn some weapon techniques or movement techniques next. That should help them a lot in the Triennial Tournament," another red-robed elder said.
Ning was watching the competition at the same time he was listening to the elders. He knew that the Qi cultivators in the fights were inexperienced and that the body cultivators would be a lot better if they had a little more Qi cultivation as well.
The fight on the stage reached an intense moment. The bald fighter had more than a few cuts on his body and was unnaturally angry.
He hadn't managed to land a single hit until now. Due to this, the blue-robed disciple started getting cocky. He started teasing the red-robed man and sent out verbal remarks.
However, he didn't calculate the limit the bald man was willing to go in the fight. Suddenly, the bald man started running towards him.
The blue-robed man prepared his spear and got ready to block. However, the red-robed man threw the club as soon as he was close.
The blue-robed man was caught off guard. He blocked the club and parried it to go behind him, however, he missed the bald man that had jumped behind the club as well.
The blue-robed man tried to bring back the spear and managed to hit the red-robed man in the left shoulder, but that wasn't enough to stop him.
With a single punch to the face, he sent the blue-robed skidding across the stage and then onto the ground near Ning.
Ning rushed forward to check up on the disciple, but it seemed the bald man was not done with his attack. He was still angry from the teasing.
When the host was focused on the blue-robed man, the bald man took out the spear on his shoulder and ran forward to reach for his club before jumping directly onto the blue-robed man on the ground.
The host turned around and saw the bald man jump but didn't realize in time that he was trying to attack the opponent who was already down.
The bald man landed directly in front of the blue-robed man and let down a massive swing with an angry face.
BANG
