The Book Of Martial God
17. The II Academy Competition

"Guuss." "Bookk." "Ugh." After the middle-aged man said the fight started Huan Long sped up and hit the woman. "Can't you be a little more lenient on a woman." Reply woman. "You are an expert level. There's no reason I'm being lenient." Reply Huan Long.

"Then don't blame me for being serious." "Crash." Huan Long saw his robe torn from the blue sword slash that suddenly appeared in the woman's hand.

"I didn't expect you to learn an expert level skill." Said Huan Long. "Now are you afraid." Smiling woman. "Do what I'm afraid of." Said Huan Long Then took out 6 daggers from his storage. "Rare level weapons only." Woman says.

Huan Long darted then threw a dagger at the woman. "Tig!." Woman fending off daggers. "Wuss." "Wuss." "Wuss." Huan Long threw 4 daggers continuously.

"Tig!." "Tig!." "Ceepp." "Ah." The woman was too focused on fending off the dagger and was not aware that Huan Long had already arrived in front of her and pierced her stomach.

"Do you give up." Said Huan Long. Put a dagger around a woman's neck. "I give up, you win." The woman smiled wryly. "Winner number 22 and made it into rank 100."

Huan Long smiled and then pulled out the dagger that stuck in the woman's stomach. "Ahhh, you." Women look at Huan Long. "Sorry, this dagger is worth it to me." Said Huan Long walking down from the arena.

"I thought you'd lose." Said the young man looking at Huan Long. "You better worry about yourself. Maybe you'll lose before you fight me." Reply Huan Long. "Huh." Youth grunting.

1 hour later Huan Long saw the young man ascending to the arena. "If he loses, I'll finish him off when he comes out of the academy." Mumbled Huan Long. "The fight begins." Huan Long saw the middle-aged man shouting and the young man darting towards his enemy. "Book." "Book." "Tig!." "Tig!." "Looks like he's gonna win." Mumbled Huan Long.

A few minutes later Huan Long saw the young man win the fight. "I didn't expect you to learn expert level skills as well." Said Huan Long looking at the young man descending from the arena. "Are you scared after seeing me learn an expert level skill." Youth grinning.

"Didn't you see, my opponent also mastered an expert level skill. But still lose to me." Reply Huan Long. "That's because he's weaker than you." Youth reply.

2 Hours later Huan Long saw the middle-aged man standing on the stage and said. "To fight today is enough. The next match will be tomorrow morning." Hearing what the middle-aged man Huan Long said walked away.

Huan Long walked into the treatment room and looked at Han Yuu who was lying down. "How are you doing." Ask Huan Long. "My condition is much better now." Han Yuu smiled. "If so you should focus on recuperating." Said Huan Long. "Good." Han Yuu smiled and nodded.

As he exited the treatment room Huan Long looked at the young man. "What npc is so precious to you." Hearing the words young man Huan Long said. "True, he's precious to me. And be prepared that tomorrow your level will drop." "Haha, you're too confident to beat me." Youths laughing.

A few minutes later Huan Long was in a shop. "I want to buy an expert level skill." The shopkeeper looked at Huan Long then took out 10 books and put them on the table. Huan Long looked at all the books and said. "I bought this book."

"1100 pieces of gold." "Isn't the price of an expert-level skill book usually only 1000 gold pieces." Huan Long looked at the shopkeeper. "This book comes from a middle kingdom. It's only natural that it's 10% more expensive." Reply shopkeeper.

"Well, I'll buy it." Huan Long snorted then gave 1100 pieces of gold. Huan Long picked up the book then walked away.

Huan Long walked towards the inn then booked a room. The innkeeper then escorted Huan Long into the room. While inside the room Huan Long looked at the book he was holding.

"Skill shadow step level Expert. It can make an expert who studies it create a faint shadow and switch positions within a distance of 20 meters quickly. The study requirement must reach the level of Epert. Skill consumption 40 ki/where each move. Learn YES/NO."

"Study." Huan Long said then the book became a ray of light and entered into his head. Huan Long opened his eyes and said. "In this way I won't lose against players below master level." "Status table." A status screen appeared in front of Huan Long.

"Right now I only have a thousand pieces of gold. I hope to obtain master-level breathing technique skills after completing all the missions in the Capital." Mumbled Huan Long. "Well, it's time to take a break." Said Huan Long lying on the bed and closed his eyes.

The next day Huan Long was at the academy competition venue and saw a middle-aged man standing on the stage. "The first fight is the number 2 player with the number 200." Two young men then climbed into the arena. "The winner will enter the top 50. And the loser has to settle for being at level 100." "We understand." Reply to the two young men. Said the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked at the two young men then said. "The fight begins." "Wuss." "Wuss." "Tig!." "Tig!." The two youths darted and started fighting. "I must not underestimate a participant who managed to escape at level 100." Huan Long's mutter saw the two youths activate the ki sword.

30 minutes later Huan Long heard the middle-aged man mention his number. "My turn is yes." Said Huan Long rising into the arena. "Huan Long's spirit." Huan Long saw Han Yuu yelling in his encouragement.

"Just this time I saw a player powered by npc." Said Huan Long's opponent. "If you're familiar with npc, then npc will support you." Reply Huan Long.

"The winner will enter the top 50. And the loser has to settle for being at level 100." Said the middle-aged man. "I understand." Said Tian Long and his opponent simultaneously. "If so the fight begins." Said the middle-aged man.

"Enable ki sword skill." Huan Long and his opponent activated the skill simultaneously. "Shadow step." "Wuss." "Wuss." Huan Long suddenly stood beside his opponent and swung his sword." "Quick." "Tig!." Opponent Huan Long reflexively repelled Huan Long's attack.

"Tiger fist!" said Huan Long hitting his opponent's stomach with his left hand. "Woaarr." "Bukkk." "Ugh." Opponent Huan Long shot backwards and managed to survive on the edge of the arena. "I'm too fretful." Before finishing his words the young man was surprised to see a dagger flying towards him. "Tig!." "Tig!."

"Crash." "Ohh." Huan Long appeared in front of the young man and cut off his right arm. "You're not my opponent.!" Said Huan Long kicking the young man down. "Bukkk." The young man descended from the arena then his body became light then disappeared.

"The winner is number 22 and made it into rank 50." Said the middle-aged man. Huan Long descended from the arena and looked at the smiling Han Yuu. "Happy Huan Long you're ranked 50." "I'm lucky to have a weak opponent." Huan Long smiled.

"I didn't expect you to also learn expert level skills" said the young man. "All expert level players must have learned expert level skills." Reply Huan Long.

1 hour later Huan Long who was sitting with Han Yuu saw the young man managed to escape to the top 50. "Heh, I think you lost." Huan Long sneered at the young man. "You underestimated me too much." Reply to the young man then sat down and began to rest.
