A Failure's hopeful Journey

Chapter 120: Sweeping.



William Trevor was the presiding judge, and he stood outside the battle area designated for the contenders. The rule was simple, either you make the opponent admit defeat, throw them out of the designated area or you knock them out. Fulfill one of the three conditions and you will win. You Xi Wang was pumped up and took a step forward, raised his palm, and made the gesture towards the opponents.

He even spoke, "Come let's dance."

William Trevor and the audience were even more surprised by his attitude. They obviously knew this term was the modern slang for let's fight but facing six people and he did not hesitate before calling them out.

Marcus Langdon was the type of person who bullied the weak and worshipped the strong. He felt very indignant after hearing this and step forward. This conceited guy spoke to You Zhichi, "Senior sister Zhichi, forgive me but I will have to use a heavy hand."

You Zhichi spoke in a gentle tone, "If you think you can please go ahead." she was not even the least bit worried about this guy winning her brother. Marcus on the side felt a little uneasy with her comment. He shook his head and stepped forward. He locked his eyes with You Xi Wang and said, "Come, let senior brother teach you."

You Xi Wang stood on the platform with an indifferent face. Marcus was even more pissed. William Trevor spoke, "Begin."

Marcus was getting ready to make a move, but he had not even taken the stance yet and a fist came in contact with his liver.

Pooh!!

You Xi Wang punched him right in the liver, making him barf his breakfast on the platform. You Xi Wang did not stop and chopped on his neck. This chop was laced with spiritual energy. Marcus only felt a sting and then he fell down flat on his face. The crowd was stunned. The contestants were stunned. The referee was left speechless. You Xi Wang looked at him and said, "Sir, he is out?"

William Trevor woke up from his stupor. He nodded and gestured for the support staff to carry off Marcus from the stage and clean his puke. You Xi Wang stood on the spot and waited for the next participant to come.

Misty Shay came forward with a wicked smile on her face. She spoke in a coquettish voice, "Little brother, are you ready?"

You Xi Wang was still indifferent regarding her. William Trevor gestured, and the fight started. Misty Shay was not like Marcus. She unrolled her whip and swung it violently at You Xi Wang as soon as the hand gesture from the principal was done. You Xi Wang was also not slacking off. He directly grasped the whip in his palm and tugged it with all his force. Misty involuntarily took a couple of steps forward. She wanted to counter, but she saw You Xi Wang approaching her like a gale. Her eyes flashed, and she took out a dagger tied to her back and stabbed at the approaching, You Xi Wang.

You Xi Wang knew that he was approaching too fast and cannot stop midway so he waved his left hand and his spear appeared with a flash. He stabbed at Misty. Spears have the advantage in range. One inch longer, one inch stronger. The tip of the spearhead was pointed at Misty's porcelain neck. It was faintly touching the skin and a drop of blood could be seen forming slowly on the point of contact. Misty felt her whole body turn stiff. Her eyes were dilated into needle points. She did not expect You Xi Wang to come at her so seriously, yet she was not afraid as she did not sense any killing intent. This made her drop her guard slightly and allow You Xi Wang to defeat her.

She spoke, "I admit defeat." her voice was tiny. She did not dare to make big movements, worried that the spear tip might dig in deeper. William nodded and spoke, "You Xi Wang, advances."

The Misty walked down the stage and stood by Marcus, who by now was awake. He was still contemplating what happened to him. Misty also recalled the scene just now. She shivered in fright. This guy could kill you and perfectly hide his killing intent. She decided never to be on this guy's bad side. The experience of death was simply terrifying. She prayed for those who were about to face him. She looked at Marcus who sat next to her and asked, "Why are you having a confused expression?"

Marcus said, "I don't remember how he defeated me."

Misty: ...

...

On the stage, Jack came forward with his sword, and the crowd began talking, "Senior brother Jack will definitely deal with this guy in one slash."

"Tsk, shut up and watch okay, I have butterflies in my stomach right now and they want to fly out."

Another person spoke, "I know right, this junior brother only used a handful of moves to defeat two seeded contenders. He is making my blood boil."

...

You Xi Wang was calm on the stage and a sword appeared in his hand. This sword was purgatory. Sheathed in a white case, quite contrary to its nature. You Xi Wang spoke, "To respect your sword."

Jack was surprised and nodded to You Xi Wang. William also liked this attitude. Jack was a student who achieved sword intent at such a young age, and he deserved to be respected. The old man waved his hand, signaling the start of the battle.

You Xi Wang was not carefree. He sensed a sharp intent slashing at him as soon as Jack touched the hilt of his sword. You Xi Wang did not falter and released his own intent to clash. Sparks flew out in the center of the stage. Both the parties have not yet moved even a step but this is just the result of their intent. Jack did not expect this junior to have realized the intent of the sword. His eyes lit up and a strong desire to fight emerged in them. He took a step forward and sword winds formed behind him. The sword winds flew to You Xi Wang.

You Xi Wang also condensed some sword winds of his own to meet Jack's attack. The air in the wind started moving. Everyone felt a gentle breeze flying by them. This resulted from two intents clashing together. The speed of the exchange was fast, the onlookers could not keep until they infused spiritual energy in their eyes. Jack unsheathed his sword and his aura changed. His eyes became sharp, as if the sword itself. This was the second stage of sword intent, Sword Heart. When a person becomes one with the sword, this state is called a sword heart.

The sword in Jack's hand was white, emitting a cold aura. jack pointed his sword at You Xi Wang and said, "I named my sword, Typhoon." his intention was to show respect to his opponent. Swordsman would declare the name of their sword to the people whom they think are worthy opponents.

You Xi Wang nodded and unsheathed a black sword. The sword emitted a gloomy aura. The wielder spoke, "Purgatory." He was returning the gesture. The two people exhaled and their figures flickered. You Xi Wang used wind spiritual energy to help himself move fast. Jack was also a wind elemental practitioner. He also infused his muscles with spiritual energy.

CLANG!

The metallic sound echoed in the arena. The two people smiled. You Xi Wang felt a sharp wind slashing at him when they exchanged blows. He closed his eyes and entered a state of deep focus. When he opened his eyes, the aura changed. His eyes were shining like the starry sky. He treated two steps and called in a low voice, "Dance of the Pheonix."

Next moment he slashed out, under the gaze of the thousands of onlookers his sword moved towards Jack. The latter welcomed this move with his own counter, "Snow Sword, flake stabs."

Jack continuously stabbed while You Xi Wang gracefully parried all the oncoming attacks. Jack's face changed. This was his ultimate move. When using this move he could stab fifty times in a minute, yet You Xi Wang parried or avoided it all by using his wrist to turn his sword in all directions and moving his body as if a dance. The opponent did not give him a chance to reminisce. He heard a calm voice say, "Descent of the Pheonix"

You Xi Wang raised his hand diagonally and his body moved like a spin top and the black blade came chopping on Jack's neck. The speed was very quick, Jack could not even raise his sword to block the move. He spoke, "I concede."

William was shocked, it was only now that he understood why did the elders appointed this boy as the captain of the team. He announced, "You Xi Wang advances." following these words, You Xi Wang retracted the sword. Jack wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He smiled and said, "You are strong. Good fight."

You Xi Wang stretched out his hand and said, "You are strong too."

Jack shook hands with him with no scruples. He retracted his hand and descended the stage. The crowd applauded and cheers sounded for You Xi Wang's name. The whole first year was chanting his name.

"MAESTRO, MAESTRO, MAESTRO."

It was unknown who spoke first, but when hundreds of people cheered together the momentum was very exciting. Orion had an ugly face. He stepped out and said, "I will make them forget who the maestro is." the people of the Paul family were very competitive. His voice was enough to dampen the spirits of the people. They all shared the opinion that defeating students in senior grade was a good this.

You Xi Wang replied to him with a calm face, "I will fight with my fists. I lack control, so don't blame me if too many of your bone break."

"We will see," Orion replied with a snort. Neo in the crowd already called his family. He spoke, "Big Uncle, your boys picked on You Xi Wang."

The elders in his family were grateful for the blood shackle fruit they have received from You Xi Wang, when his uncle heard this he sighed and spoke, "Neo, did the You Family express any displeasure?" he thought his nephew called him because the you family was angry.

Neo shook his head and told him how one brother showed his indecent thoughts for You Zhichi in front of You Xi Wang and now the second was proclaiming to make people forget about him. The man on the phone said, "So, what extent will the damage be?"

Neo said, "These two might spend some days in the hospital to mend broken bones."

The man sucked in a cold breath and said, "Well, until the older generation intervenes it's okay."

Fenny laughed after the call disconnected, "This will be fun kitty boy."

The other two people shook their heads, they wondered why these two had to wake up the dragon. On the stage, William spoke, "Begin."

You Xi Wang moved with the spiritual energy infused in his muscles. He swung his right hand from the left to right in a backhand slap. Orion parried it easily with arrogance in his eyes. next moment he choked because when the backhand slap came it covered his eyes and he did not see the left fist was also following and struck his chin. The punch was so strong that his jaw dislocated with a click. Now he could not admit defeat even if he wanted to. You Xi Wang moved fast. He moved his right hand and coiled around Orion's right wrist like a snake.

Orion felt a chill in his heart and raised his knee to kick You Xi Wang but the latter moved to the side, cleanly avoiding it. You Xi Wang twisted his hand abruptly and people only heard a clicking sound. Orion let out a muffled wail. His hand was broken in three or four places. Aries yelled, "You Xi Wang, stop, I will kill you."

You Xi Wang looked at him and said, "Come, I will show you that death is much better than life." the chill in his voice made people remember how he dealt with Zack a few days ago. They felt bad for the two brothers, but then again who asked them to wake up the demon. The onslaught on the stage continued, regardless. The screams rang out, William wanted to intervene but when he saw that You Xi Wang avoided vitals and did not have any intention to kill the opponent, he stopped himself.

Punches and kicks landed on Orion's body, leading to broken bones. After fifteen minutes of torture, he fell on the stage fainted. William Trevor spoke with a sigh, "Take him to the hospital."

The arena was silent, the people were still recalling how many clicks they heard to predict how many bones did You Xi Wang break off that unlucky guy. You Xi Wang was also injured, but it was just some bruises he suffered under the desperate struggle. Aries had his face flushed at this moment and he was shivering in anger. He turned to You Zhichi and said, "I will break your brother for you to pick up. Zhichi."

You Zhichi had not even replied when a cold voice sounded, "Hey pig, is Zhichi a name you can take? Come, kill me if you have the guts. I swear in the name of heavens, that if you kill me today, no one will blame you." lightning flashed in the sky.
