The Heavenly Tiger Swordsman
Shitty

Hao Zhao could only stand expressionlessly near Meng Dali who did not also rise from his position, making Hao Zhao confused whether he should just pull his hand so that Meng Dali fell or how to escape the awkward situation.

Meng Dali himself was still glued to his position with the look in his eyes that kept on addressing Hao Zhao fixedly, the girl seemed to have forgotten everything.

“Nona Dali, can you stand up?" Hao Zhao who was starting to realize how sharp Yue Yie's gaze was from his chair.

“Eh, oh.. forgive me Young Master Zhao," said Meng Dali, rising with a blushing smile on her face.

“It's okay, after all my fault too so that you can lose focus until you slip in the middle of the game," Hao Zhao said.

“Ti— no, Young Master Zhao. It's not your fault if you have a face this attractive," Meng Dali's timps quickly.

Hao Zhao only raised his brows for a moment trying to digest Meng Dali's words, making Meng Dali who realized it could only pat a few times his mouth not at all intending to say such a thing.

“Exit."

Hao Zhao was immediately pushed back when someone suddenly climbed the arena to approach Meng Dali.

Hao Zhao himself immediately turned his head to see who had just tried to slam his body, before the sharp eyes of Hao Zhao accidentally pointed at a young man who was none other than Li Kao.

“Li Kao of the Sword Marks sect. He was the one who tried to finish Jian San off earlier," muttered Hao Zhao who tried to calm down amid the sudden surge of emotions.

Li Kao himself seemed to not care at all about Hao Zhao only focusing his attention on Meng Dali, making Hao Zhao understand one thing if the two seemed to have known for a long time.

“Saudari Dali, are you okay?" tanya Li Kao looked at Meng Dali worriedly.

“I'm fine Brother Kao, don't worry too much like that because Young Master Zhao has no intention of hurting me at all," Meng Dali said as she occasionally glanced at Hao Zhao with a blushing smile.

Li Kao was clearly aware of this, where the sound of gnashing of teeth was heard afterwards from the same young man.

“No, don't say it. He will obviously do something bad to you if the game is not stopped immediately." Li Kao with both of his hands who had been gently grasping Meng Dali's shoulders.

Hao Zhao only stared wordlessly at Li Kao for a moment after hearing his words, clearly understanding himself what Li Kao was trying to do was trying to make Meng Dali look at him badly.

“Who cares? Besides it won't change the fact that you've also tried to do something to my people" Hao Zhao muttered as he turned around before jumping towards where his seat was.

“Wait, Young Master Zhao ...."

Meng Dali had tried to stop Hao Zhao, but unfortunately did not succeed because Hao Zhao did not care at all.

Hao Zhao had only arrived at his seat when the surrounding atmosphere was somehow gloomy, though so Hao Zhao ignored that by remaining seated in his chair before anything happened.

Nyut!!!

Something felt on Hao Zhao's waist, he did not feel disturbed by it but remained curious so he turned to check what was happening to his waist.

“What?" hao Zhao asked Yue Yie a moment after finding out that it was Yue Yie's hand that was pinching her waist tight.

“Not why, just being upset," Yue Yie said briefly before throwing her face away.

Hao Zhao only scratched his head that did not itch looking at Yue Yie like that, wanting to calm Yue Yie who was clearly visibly annoyed before being delayed because the next match would be held soon.

“Teacher, don't talk like that!!!" Yue Yie with a look of annoyed eyes at Yang Gao.

Hao Zhao saw this and immediately sighed in relief, thinking how good Yang Gao was at almost always taking Yue Yie's annoyance away from him.

On top of the arena itself already stood Li Kao with one other small sect youth as his opponent, both have Hao Zhao heard from the beginning of the tournament is one of the most favored candidates to win the tournament if he does not count himself joining suddenly.

Hao Zhao initially doubted this to the point of seeing the fight between the two, which although not very interesting in Hao Zhao's eyes but it did not deny the fact that both of them were very good considering where they came from which was nothing but a small sect.

“Both are High-stage Body Training warriors, considering this should be a fight between the two will be balanced. Unfortunately for the other side because the moves used by him were one level below Li Kao," Hao Zhao muttered throughout observing the match between the two.

Not long after Hao Zhao said it was true that the fight that initially seemed like no one was superior had now changed completely, Li Kao managed to push quite far against his opponent with the moves he used to make the fight seem to be nearing its end.

“This is the end for you, I have to finish off that bastard so I have to win from you!!!" li Kao exclaimed loudly enough that almost every one of those present heard him including Hao Zhao.

After Li Kao's own exclamation the sword slash managed Li Kao to sieve quite deeply in his opponent's body, making the match had to be stopped because the young man who was against Li Kao was injured so badly that he needed immediate treatment.

“The winner is Li Kao from the Sword Mark sect, with this semi-final match ending which will continue tomorrow as the final match!!!" exclaim the imperial warrior who became the match supervisor.

Cheers soon sounded from the crowd who were impatient to see the top game tomorrow, where after that began to go one by one of them from the arena area because of the completion of the tournament that day.

“Sister Zhao, the bastard by which you are?" yue Yie asked suddenly obviously joined in hearing Li Kao's earlier exclamation.

Hao Zhao only looked at Yue Yie without a word of confusion to answer him how, because if he said yes then he was the same as admitting that he was a bastard in accordance with the appeal.

“Don't hesitate Brother Zhao, just say it. After all, if he said he had to win to be able to finish off the bastard, it means that he was referring to you who made it to the final round," Yue Yie said what was on his mind.

“You understand so far why still ask?" Hao Zhao who could not deny Yue Yie's words.

Yue Yie heard that immediately smiled amusedly before saying, “Oh, so Brother Zhao has been a ba—"

“No, I'm not at all like that," Hao Zhao said quickly cutting off Yue Yie's words.

Yue Yie herself was silent for a moment before saying something with her expression that suddenly turned serious, “ Then don't do anything like before again or I'll really think of you like that, Brother Zhao."

Hao Zhao was only speechless at Yue Yie's words, understanding that Yue Yie was upset but did not expect that Yue Yie would turn out to him.

“Before completely unintentional," Hao Zhao said.

“That's it? Then try to do the same to me, I will fall down immediately, Brother Zhao," Yue Yie said.

Hao Zhao saw that Yue Yie was already preparing to drop herself on him immediately shook her head slowly before saying, “Can't, because what you did was intentional."

Yue Yie immediately looked at Hao Zhao wordlessly before standing up from her seat to go from there back to the Treasure Lantern.

“Sucks."

That one word was what Hao Zhao had heard from Yue Yie's mouth when he wanted to leave, where Hao Zhao was quite confused to have to respond to how this was.
