The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 119 - Main Round
Huang Kun, Shen Xuemei and also Li Yong had just woken up that morning. They just got ready to go to the tournament location as soon as possible in order not to be late for the main round but in a few moments they fell silent when they realized there was less. Li Yong asked as he twisted his surroundings, "Where is Xin Fai? Is he not awake yet?"
Huang Kun and Shen Xuemei shrugged their shoulders making a heavy breath out of Li Yong's mouth.
Li Yong walked quickly towards Xin Fai's room, after knocking for a long time no answer he forced his way in and could see there was absolutely no one in the room. Just as Li Yong was panicked, the priest walked very hastily out of the Lotus Temple residence. Negative thoughts as well as all the bad possibilities that began to come will disappear Xin Fai this morning.
Huang Kun and Shen Xuemei who saw their teacher running out of the residence could only fall silent and followed him.
Li Yong's anxiousness turned relieved when he saw Xin Fai was practicing a sword in front of the residence, the little young man turned his head with a faint smile.
"Morning, Senior Li."
"Ah, morning also Fai'er..." Li Yong coughed softly, "How are you training? Is there any wind this early already practicing?"
"Hem? Was wrong? I just feel like I have to get stronger to get into the finals."
Li Yong was somewhat amazed to see Xin Fai's persistence, though, actually in his heart he was already very confident that Xin Fai could advance to the final round without any problems considering that he had also fought a much more formidable enemy like the Water Ruler Demon before. Even so Xin Fai did not immediately let his guard down and instead continued to practice to deepen his swordsmanship.
Shen Xuemei and Huang Kun had just walked out the door listening to those words, indeed yesterday's preliminary round was enough to make the three of them exhausted but Xin Fai still forced himself to practice. Huang Kun couldn't stand by looking at it, he ran towards Xin Fai.
"Truely, today is the determination of the results of my training so far. I can't waste this opportunity!"
Huang Kun pulled out the sword and was immediately greeted by Xin Fai, while they had no harm in training.
Shen Xuemei and Li Yong waited for them while having a small chat, until the sun finally revealed its light and they rushed towards the location of the tournament.
Xin Fai furrowed her brows when she realized the number of spectators was reduced from before, not only her but Li Yong was also aware of it. At least a third of the audience yesterday did not come, while trying to read the situation more clearly Xin Fai's shoulder was broken by someone.
Gong Li, Ren Yuan and Zhuan Ang walked arrogantly in front of them. Xin Fai could see the arrogant girl glancing at him with the tip of her eye, feeling annoyed that she was releasing a murderous aura towards the three people.
Li Yong had never expected Xin Fai to be able to give off such a powerful murderous aura, other than that the surrounding people started to sense such things and immediately moved away from them.
The murderous aura from the mouse demon gem was indeed very dangerous causing the aura it possessed was very dense full of threats. The three people held their breaths as they felt a heavy pressure on their bodies.
"What's your style?" said Ren Yuan trying to remain calm, he turned his body to face Xin Fai while raving power-mad.
In a public place like this who did not know the haughty girl named Ren Yuan the Rose Thorn from a noble family, she had the look of a goddess and her strength was not to be underestimated even though she was from a distinguished family. Seeing Ren Yuan being able to enter the main round as one of the core noble families alone was already an incredible thing in the history of the Ren great family.
Xin Fai was somewhat offended to hear Ren Yuan's words earlier.
"Refrieve. You nudged me first. What's your problem with me?"
"We'll just get out of here. Just wait, I'll embarrass him at the tournament. I just wish you wouldn't be my opponent." Gong Li stared lightly until a mocking laugh came from Xin Fai's mouth.
"Not reversed? It should be you who begs not to face me, rather than to bear the shame of losing a second time."
Huang Kun, Shen Xuemei and also Li Yong could not understand what was happening between them. But the situation is not very good for now.
Priest Li Yong broke up.
"Already Fai'er, don't keep looking for trouble."
"Senior, it's actually those who keep looking for trouble with me."
"You give up, it's not good to deal with them." Whisper Li Yong slowly, he put an unpleasant face on Ren Yuan who was now raising his eyebrows.
"Ck, why am I always to blame?" Xin Fai could only cluck in annoyance, she turned to face the three people. Seen from a distance there, their teacher Ho Shing was following.
Li Yong immediately panicked, he felt that this Ho Shing was an irritable person, he should not have a grudge against Xin Fai so as not to get entangled in his future problems with the Ren noble family.
"Fai'er, quickly apologize!"
Huang Kun also agreed to Li Yong's proposal, they both urged Xin Fai to apologize as soon as possible.
Ren Yuan raised the corner of his lips slightly, he looked so satisfied that he wanted to make Xin Fai ashamed.
"No apologies, huh? I can tell our teacher later."
The threat was certainly like a shock to Li Yong, he increasingly forced Xin Fai to apologize.
Ho Shing was actually no big deal to Xin Fai but what he feared the most was Li Yong's mouth. The pastor, if he had seen a little wrong, would nag all day without eating and drinking, at least after getting to know the priest for a long time Xin Fai can recognize his character as well including chatty and happy to nag. So Xin Fai decided to give up.
"It's as if we're just succumbing to Fai'er, rather than us dealing with the East Wind Mountain sect."
"Yes... Ja. I'm sorry."
"That's not the way to apologize!" Zhuan Ang exclaimed, he appeared to be testing Xin Fai's patience. Seeing Zhuan Ang's behavior getting worse, he could only growl in annoyance.
"So? Try to exemplify how," Xin Fai replied quite patiently to the young man, he was ready to throw a stone if Zhuan Ang had told him to prostrate in front of Ren Yuan.
