Legend of the Heavenly Swordsman
Ch.34 - New Student III Match

"What is that brat you mean brother Xiao?" Asked one of Xiao Jung's friends while pointing towards Fu Chen.

"Yes, what do you think?" Reply Xiao Jung with a faint smile.

"For a child of his age such strength is indeed quite strong. But I don't see the privilege of that boy."

"You'll see it later when he gets a pretty strong enemy... Oh yeah, do you have a errand boy?"

"Whatchu mean? I'm not that kind of person or do you want to show us that kid is gonna be your first errand boy?"

"Of course not, I'm not that kind of person either, I just want to buy some snacks."

"I have one man, I'll call him for you." One of Xiao Jung's other friends.

Pair after pair of new disciples walked into the arena to demonstrate their abilities. Some look boring, some are not balanced and some are quite interesting to watch.

The match lasted for two days to get to the last 20. On the second day Xiao Jung was still watching Fu Chen match while the other two people chose to train because they felt bored watching the match that was not interesting at all.

The journey of Fu Chen and his friends was smooth enough to get to the last 20. But the ones who managed to get into the top 20 of their Village were only four people. They are Qiao Wu, Sin Lou, Kyoto and Fu Chen.

Sin Lou and Kyoto had enough opponents to make it into the top ten. They have to fight fiercely to be able to advance the next round.

In the round of 20, there was a disciple who became the center of attention and became a dark horse in the match. In the previous round the name Tan Bao was not heard at all, but in this top 20 he defeated his opponents with just one deadly punch that instantly knocked his opponent unconscious.

Kyoto was very grateful in advance for not being Tan Bao's opponent despite being from the same group.

In the last ten, they re-draw their respective numbers. This time Xiao Jung had actually forced his friends to come watch, he even used his body-lightening science to run away his two friends who were getting class lessons in the sect.

In the distance was also Bai Chi who was watching, the previous day he was not seen at all around the senior disciple dormitory. Perhaps he did not dare to show his face after what Xiao Jung did.

The first match opens with Sin Lou fighting a girl named Xiao Yi.

the two bowed to each other in respect and became acquainted. Sin Lou was slightly blown away at Qiao Yi's thin face and her pure white skin with slightly blushing cheeks.

His long, backward-bound hair fluttered in the wind, making Sin Lou slightly hypnotized.

"It turns out there are people like you here too." Both of them did not immediately attack because they wanted to find the right time.

"What do you mean?" xiao Yi asked back without lowering his guard, feeling suspicious if Sin Lou only wanted to distract him before he attacked.

"You see it for yourself, no, their faces are not very pretty, but they are so arrogant that they curse defeat which should be theirs." Sin Lou shrugged his shoulders while saying casually.

Those who meant Sin Lou were the girls who had become his opponents in the preliminary round.

Feeling that what Sin Lou was discussing was not important, Xiao Yi immediately ran behind Sin Lou to launch an attack. The atmosphere became more serious, the two exchanged attacks with each other.

"Is he from your family too?" ask Xiao Jung's friend to her.

"Why are you still asking, isn't that obvious." Xiao Jung replied briefly, feeling uninterested in what his friend was talking about.

"Do you know him?"

"No, I've never been involved in family matters either, so stop your pointless questioning."

Sin Lou's fight was fierce until Xiao Yi finally admitted defeat. Disappointment was clearly visible on the girl's face, but she realized that she was still not strong enough.

"Thank you for giving up." Sin Lou cupped his hands together when the match was over.

"No need to hesitate, I hope you get a good position later." Xiao Yi left the arena after saying so. Sin Lou was completely dumbstruck when he saw Xiao Yi saying so with a smile.

Across the arena, Tan Bao's fight was short, again Tang Bao ended his opponent with just one punch right at his opponent's heart.

"Isn't the way to fight too cruelly? If he was too strong to hit in his opponent's heart, then his opponent could have died with that one punch."

"Is that true?" One of Xiao Jung's friends.

Xiao Jung glanced at the Elder who was watching the course of the match from the spectator bench before turning his attention to the participant who was Tan Bao's opponent."That's right, lucky that kid had already predicted his opponent's attack, otherwise he couldn't possibly still be able to maintain his current consciousness."

The three of them looked at Tan Bao's opponent who was holding his chest for asphyxiation, the referee had even warned Tan Bao not to do so, but the boy did not heed the referee's words at all.

Fu Chen and Qiao Wu entered the next round unhindered as their opponents gave up before the match. Both of them might think that just entering the top ten was enough to be able to learn the promised martial scriptures.

Sin Lou even to the point of pissing off because they both always get good luck.

The last fight before going into the quarter-finals was Kyoto against Bai Yan.

Both of them immediately attacked when the referee had given a warning. Bai Yan and Kyoto turned out to be quite evenly matched, both of them fighting intensely to the point of making their breath start hunting.

Bai Yan leaped backwards after the series of attacks she had staged. He got a few punches on his face and stomach, as did Kyoto.

"We'll see if you can still stand up straight after this." Bai Yan took out two daggers from behind her clothes while putting on a big smile.

Fu Chen and the others were very surprised to see this, but when Qiao Wu had just wanted to protest, he was immediately stopped by the referee.

"In the rules not mentioned if it is forbidden to use weapons, blame yourself for not listening to the Elder's words well." The referee continued the fight after saying so.

Bai Chi smiled faintly at Bai Yan taking the right decision, whereas Fu Chen and the others could only grit their teeth while hoping that Kyoto would not overextend itself.

"As expected of the Princess' sister." Xiao Jung smiled faintly when he saw Bai Yan start attacking with her two daggers.

"that's right, his behavior is not much different from Bai Chi, he will use all means to get the top position."

Bai Yan's true skill was indeed not in a hand-to-hand battle. The boy had been used to being trained in using a dagger since childhood by his brother, therefore he was quite confident in his abilities.

It didn't take long before Kyoto finally admitted defeat, his body was completely muddled with incision wounds. Fresh blood soaked his torn clothes exposed to Bai Yan's attack, even for walking he had to be helped by Sin Lou and Kyoto.

Bai Yan really did not give Kyoto the chance to dodge before, even Kyoto could not declare its defeat for not having the chance to speak.

While the new referee confronted Bai Yan when the condition of Kyoto was weak and filled with incision wounds.

"You invited your own death." Fu Chen said coldly as he parted ways with Bai Yan.

Bai yan replied with a cynical smile, "you should use that phrase for yourself."
