Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 146: Defeated Yan Xou
After Xiao Yuze and Hong Xiu were confirmed to qualify for the third round, the fight between the descendants of the Guang Clan also attracted attention. But in the end Guang Zhou escaped after Guang Mo was forced to surrender.
Similarly to the other representatives of the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yuwen defeated his opponent the representative of the Zhao family, Zhao Ran. These four participants had secured a place in the third round. Only need to wait for two more names who will fight with them.
General Ji Han descended to the arena. He called out the last two names that were about to fight. Zhang Yu and Yan Xou.
Zhang Yu represented Saturn, while Yan Xou represented the Yan Clan. Both of them were already on top of the arena while holding their respective swords.
"Sister Yan Xou, defeat him and make him battered!" yan Xue exclaimed from her seat. The fat, curly-haired man raised his hand then gave a spirit. He would not forget how Zhang Yu had beaten him several times. He had no chance to avenge her, now could only rely on his cousin to finish his affairs.
"Yan Xou, do you know him?" asked Yan Wang, the Patriarch of the Yan Clan who is also Yan Xou's father.
"Uncle, don't you feel familiar with his face? He was Zhang Yu who killed dozens of clan members within the Zhen Yang Realm explorer. Besides he's also the one who's been beating me up a few times."
Hearing Yan Xue's explanation of Zhang Yu made Yan Wang link his eyebrows together. "So he's the one, it's worth it that I've seen his face."
"But Uncle you don't have to think about it anymore. Big brother Yan Xou will definitely teach him a worthy lesson!"
Yan Wang. "You're right, Yan Xou can't possibly lose to him."
...
On the other hand, Xiao Nie for the umpteenth time noticed Zhang Yu. The more he looked at her he felt like he had met her. Yet all these years he had continued to seclude himself and had only come out one day before. It was impossible for them to have a chance to meet.
"Dad, Yuze's chances of winning the heaven-defying battle are wide open. I'm sure he will manage to do so and raise the name of the Xiao Clan back."
Xiao Nie took a quick glance and looked back at Zhang Yu. He seemed to no longer be interested in anything else and wanted to get to know Zhang Yu.
"You two are ready?" general Ji Han asked as he looked into the eyes of the two participants.
Yan Xou swung his sword. "I'm ready. I can't wait to fight and beat him up!"
Zhang Yu raised the corner of his lips without speaking. He only gave a small nod answering General Ji Han's question.
"One, two, three!"
As soon as General Ji Han's voice echoed, Yan Xou directly placed his sword in front then released a single incision.
"The sword is splitting the land!"
Whuts...
Booms!
The long sword-shaped energy was eyeing Zhang Yu. However Zhang Yu managed to dodge it until the attack only hit the barrier.
Of course Yan Xou did not stop getting there. Realizing his attack missed he gripped his sword then flashed.
Wush...
Yan Xou changed places and was now on Zhang Yu's right. His sword flowed Qi after it carried out a vertical slash.
Trank!
Zhang Yu held him back using the universe sword. It looks so easy with just one hand.
"How is it possible!" Yan Xou was surprised. He remembered two years ago that Zhang Yu's strength was far below him. How could he now be able to withstand his attacks with one hand?!
"You daydreaming? You'll lose if you do." Zhang Yu appeared in front of Yan Xou in just five steps. Yan Xou rounded his eyes then pulled his body away while stretching out his sword.
Trank!
Zhang Yu had not stopped. He attacked again and forced Yan Xou to resist his attack. Wounds and incisions could no longer be hidden, Yan Xou actually looked badly made by him.
"How could he possibly be this strong? I should be able to defeat him easily!" inner Yan Xou was full of anger.
His red eyes stared hatefully, then took the opportunity to widen the distance from Zhang Yu. "There's no other choice. I'll use the blood potion."
Yan Xou finished the drink in one gulp. Shortly after that his body emitted an overflowing energy and felt even stronger.
"What did you drink?" muttered Zhang Yu. I don't know exactly what he was drinking. But what was clearly visible was the contrasting difference between the current Yan Xou and Yan Xou just a moment ago.
"Zhang Yu, I won't let you go!" Yan Xou roared ferociously, then his body disappeared from its place and moved behind Zhang Yu while releasing a slash.
Booms!
Zhang Yu's back is protected. But even so Zhang Yu could feel an increase from Yan Xou's attack.
"He drank the forbidden potion. Now the Qi in his body had doubled and would never be depleted."
Zhang Yu's face froze at the words of the dragon god. "What kind of banquet is it that can make its user have infinite Qi?"
Not yet had the dragon god answered his question, Yan Xou again appeared nearby with his sword.
Prangs!
Right before the sword landed Zhang Yu managed to twitch. The sword only hit the arena floor. However, while still ducking Yan Xou tried to reach Zhang Yu's neck with his left hand.
Sreth!
Zhang Yu once again managed to dodge. But her mother's necklace which she always wore was pulled by Yan Xou until it was cut off. The pendant of his heart fell thrown, rolling to the edge of the arena.
Watching this Zhang Yu's eyes were filled with anger. His face was red, his gaze as cold as night.
"I don't care what potion it is! You will suffer the consequences!" Zhang Yu took out his entire aura. The sword of the universe shone, then he brandished it upwards while exclaiming in a cold voice.
"Killer sword!"
A shadow of a claw with fiery red nails was instantly created above his head. The gripping aura can be felt from all corners of the arena, even the entire audience that was there.
"What power is this? So terrible!"
"Will Yan Xou survive this attack?"
As everyone had the same question, Zhang Yu could not hold back any longer that shadow claw. He swung his sword firmly pointing towards Yan Xou.
It was undeniable that Yan Xou felt the pressure that everyone felt. However since he had drunk the blood potion, he was not afraid at all. "only this? I have one too!"
Yan Xou took out a land-splitting sword technique. He was still so confident that he could withstand Zhang Yu's attack, but upon seeing his attack unsuccessfully his face instantly turned pale.
"W-what? It can't be!" Yan Xou was about to run away. But he forgot to be in an arena where each side was lined with barriers. While running the killing war technique had already charged into his body from behind.
Booms!
The explosion is very strong. Yan Xou's body slammed violently. He knelt down while spitting out blood, after which losing his coarseness.
