The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 64: Semi Final Tournament of Nine Dragons
Ye Long looked at Gao Zhimao and Ma Xinxuan who were looking at each other. He felt that the two of them did not mind the rules of the tournament, just that his bad premonition from earlier made Ye Long unable to calm down.
“Are you ready to continue this semi-final round match despite life as a bet?”
Gao Zhimao and Ma Xinxuan looked at each other before the two nodded. Seeing that Ye Long instantly signaled the two to keep his distance.
“With this the semi-final match between Gao Zhimao against Ma Xinxuan begins!”
Right after the match cue from Ye Long echoed. Gao Zhimao moved so fast that it made Ma Xinxuan unable to twitch at all.
“Senior, you hurt me!” Ma Xinxuan's face was deathly pale when he saw Gao Zhimao's sword slash hit his chest.
“Give up!” Gao Zhimao intimidated Ma Xinxuan.
Before long Ma Xinxuan raised both of her hands. “I surrender!” Ma Xinxuan's statement made a scene as the young swordsman looked to have no guts against Gao Zhimao.
But in Ye Long's eyes there were suspicious movements between Gao Zhimao and Ma Xinxuan. At a glance he saw Murong Liuyu and Ye Xiaoya moving towards Murong Qiaomi.
‘Why are warriors from the Peach Flower Palace gathered?’ Ye Long sat down when he saw all the warriors from the Peach Flower Palace gathered on the spectator bench that Jing Yang occupied.
“Because Ma Xinxuan gave up. Then the winner is Gao Zhimao!” Ye Long spoke out loudly and ended the match.
Gao Zhimao patted Ma Xinxuan on the shoulder and smiled. “Drink this Demon Blood Pill. I'm sorry, but I'm tired of playing my part. How can a ruler like me play the role of a son of Wang Zhi.”
Ma Xinxuan received the pill Gao Zhimao gave him and smiled awkwardly. “Ah, no need Senior. But I will accept it. This pill is very useful for me to be able to penetrate the next stage.”
Gao Zhimao immediately returned to the bleachers followed by Ma Xinxuan. Shortly after the two participants were seated in the bleachers, Ye Long immediately called out to Jing Yang and Gu Hao who were about to compete.
“Next let's welcome Jing Yang and Gu Hao! For both participants please forward!” Ye Long was still flying up in the air before descending slowly on the ground.
On the bleachers were seen Murong Qiaomi whispering something to Jing Yang. Jing Yang nodded slowly.
Jing Yang jumped onto the ground stage almost simultaneously with Gu Hao. It seemed Gu Hao had a different aura than before.
The Black Spirit who was in the subconscious looked so seriously at Gu Hao.
‘Yes, no more mistakes. After that era of destruction. I think this power is from the Devil Race. Your enemy drinks the concoction of a demon. You must not let your guard down even though you have reached the holy warrior stage.’ The Black Spirit said in Jing Yang's subconscious.
‘Mean, Teacher?’ Jing Yang was a little confused by the words of the Black Spirit.
‘I told you about five continents, didn't I?’ The Black Spirit spoke again, while Jing Yang muttered softly. ‘It is difficult to explain, but there are two other worlds where the world is still one with our world. As time goes by you will understand what I say if you, even myself, are but a small dot in this world.’
Jing Yang scrunched his forehead. ‘More or less I can understand what Master said. Merely, I was curious about the two worlds that Master meant. Is the place sealed the same as the Black Dimensional Cliffs?’
The Spirit of the Black Sighed deeply. ‘I can't tell it now.’ No more words came out of the Spirit of the Black One.
Jing Yang listened to Ye Long's explanation while thinking about the words of the Black Spirit. If this world was a vast place, of course he wanted to go on an adventure to know the truth of this world with his own eyes.
“Alright, immediately take the distance and wait for the match from me!” Ye Long's voice broke Jing Yang's calmness. Then he kept his distance while staring at Gu Hao.
Jing Yang and Gu Hao did not move right after Ye Long started the match cue. Right now Jing Yang wanted to see for himself the power of the pill that Gu Hao had absorbed. Even though he didn't expect much.
“Jing Yang, I suggest you don't underestimate me. I know you have reached the stage of the holy swordsman. But sometimes your talent will be your own grave.” Gu Hao released a murderous aura to Jing Yang before darting forward attacking Jing Yang. “You will die today in this place!”
Jing Yang did not comment on Gu Hao's words. His hand drew his sword and held back Gu Hao's sword slash.
“That gravitational force of yours is terrible. Show me that!” Gu Hao floated sword slashes in succession at Jing Yang. His occasional slash was just an illusion so Jing Yang was surprised to see it. But quickly Jing Yang immediately anticipated the attack from Gu Hao.
“Good. I'm so honored to be fighting you. Real genius.” Gu Hao again launched his attack. The clash of both of their sword slashes made damage around the ground stage.
“The Ghost Forest Sword Technique: Night Ghost Chanting!”
After Jing Yang constantly held back his sword slashes, Gu Hao directly used his sword technique to attack Jing Yang.
Jing Yang's breathing was so calm, his right eye stared intently at the swinging direction of Gu Hao's sword.
“Strade Technique In A Glove.” Jing Yang sheathed his sword slowly as Gu Hao moved at high speed towards him, “A burst of Gravity!”
Gu Hao's body was drenched in blood from being slashed by Jing Yang's sword. However the wound was not very deep, as Jing Yang held back his strength.
“From everyone I've ever met. You actually did not insult me physically at all.” Jing Yang turned his head back to see Gu Hao shake his head.
“Yes, I myself am amazed at you who have reached the holy warrior stage.” Gu Hao raised both his hands and turned his gaze to look at Ye Long. “Senior Ye, I give up!”
Ye Long let out a long sigh seeing Gu Hao give up in the match. The blood-soaked wound looked not too deep in Gu Hao's body so many wondered about the reason Gu Hao had given up.
“As Gu Hao surrendered, the winner was Jing Yang!”
“Fight against Gao Zhimao. You're most likely to die. My job is done. Now the curtain has been opened. I'm waiting for you in our fight, Jing Yang.” Gu Hao's eyes glared sharply at Jing Yang.
‘Already expected, the people around you have planned something. Lucky your human teacher is so deft. Look towards the tribune occupied by the swordsman of the Nine Dragons Palace.’ Jing Yang followed the words of the Spirit of the Black One. His eyes stared intently at the spectator bench occupied by members Wang Zhi and Zhu Huazhi.
‘The Nine Dragons Palace has been infiltrated by black warriors who cooperate with the two humans who humble you. It was likely that the white flow that ruled the Moon Snow Island was also involved in their plan. Yeah, it sucks. But I allow you to use the power of the Dragon Soul Furnace.’.
After hearing the words of the Black Spirit, Jing Yang immediately turned his head towards Ye Xiaoya. The beautiful-looking girl signaled herself to fight with all her might.
“I understand.” Jing Yang only smiled after knowing the intent of Ye Xiaoya.
Right now Jing Yang wanted to fulfill the request from Ye Xiaoya. When he saw Gao Zhimao jump onto the ground stage even before Ye Long called out to him, Jing Yang felt that the person who was staring at him so sharply reminded him of the figure that made his entire blood boil, Jing Yang felt that the person who looked at him so sharply reminded him of the figure that made his entire blood boil, namu at the same time despair also burst into him.
Ye Long instantly stood before the two participants. The roar of the audience echoed when he saw Jing Yang and Gao Zhimao staring intently at each other.
Instantly an invisible wall around the ground stage was visible. The Four Elders of the Nine Dragons used their power to prevent damage to the stadium where the match was held.
“Alright, with this the final match of the Nine Dragons Tournament begins!”
Ye Long moved backwards backwards and flew observing the match from outside the invisible wall after he started the match cue.
