THE SKY SWORDSMAN
The beladiri tournament 4

In the morning, the thin fog still enveloped the city of ice crystals, the Glacier clan members returned to their usual activities, except for the tournament organizers who were so busy with all the equipment, and the other members of the Glacier clan returned to their usual activities, that should be below heading to the place where the arena of martial arts is located.

All of that was because the emperor and imperial consort would see their sons and daughters compete, in the tournament between young cultivators organized by the Glasier clan.

Yan Lan opened her eyes slowly, after an entire night of cultivating to absorb the Qi of nature, in order to increase the pure Qi present in her body.

Before long Yan Lan opened her eyes, a small knock from outside her bedroom door rang.

Yan Lan immediately opened the door of her room.

Seen behind the door, a beautiful face from the figure of Yan Ling was there.

"Sister Yan Lan, I brought you a change of clothes and breakfast" Yan Ling said.

"Thank you Ling er" Yan Lan replied.

"I'll clean up first, and you wait here, I want to have breakfast with you" Yan Lan said.

Yan Lan immediately left the place to clean herself up, and before long Yan Lan came in a change of clothes that Yan Ling had given her.

"You're so handsome in that dress Yan Lan's brother, you look like a prince of a magnificent palace" Yan Ling praised.

"If I am a prince, then you are a princess who fills the heart of the prince," Yan Lan teased.

The two of them enjoyed their breakfast full of joy and laughter.

*****

The day of the martial tournament arrived, the four cultivators who would compete were sitting on the podium of the winners of the battle.

Yan Lan looked gallant in the white clothes given from Yan Ling, this time Yan Lan appeared without using the mask she used to wear.

On the main podium, the 12-clan chief Huang Lang who was the former head of the Glacier clan earlier, gasped in shock knowing that the former Yan Lan was declared dead, which was the only one who had died, now it is on the podium of the winner of the match with a healthy state.

Chairman Huang Lang instantly became agitated, given his former treatment of the unnatural Yan Lan, and was always thinking of how to kill him.

Now chairman Huang Lang became worried that one day Yan Lan would retaliate against him, considering that Yan Lan's level of strength was now so strong and her cultivation level was invisible to him.

Meanwhile the head of the 9th pagoda was delighted, as the masked young man who was following the match was Yan lan. The chairman looked towards Yan Lan, and hoped that Yan Lan could defeat Azuma and become the winner in the Akbar tournament this time around.

All the spectators outside the fighting arena looked enthusiastic, taking care of one of their respective favorite cultivators.

From the votes of the audience, Azuma came first, followed by the jade imperial crown prince, and in third and fourth positions, occupied by Yan Lan and Xing Xia Lin.

Finally the draw was random on the title, and it looked like the crown prince was going to face off against Yan Lan.

The committee had previously arranged the fight, all on the orders of one of the generals ordered by the crown prince.

Yan Lan and and the crown prince were now entering the fighting arena.

The two of them faced each other at a distance of about fifteen meters.

Chairman Yan lao immediately installed the arena protector. After he finished putting up the protective seal, chairman Yan Lou went to the two cultivators who were about to fight, and reminded him again of the rules that prevailed in that fight.

After he finished saying the rules of the match, chairman Yan Lou immediately darted quickly leaving the place and the fight began.

The crown prince immediately took out a sword from his storage box. The sword was a hereditary sword for the emperors of the previous jade palace, it was named the Golden Jade Sword.

A golden light instantly filled the entire battle arena, without a second thought the crown prince directly attacked Yan Lan.

Yan Lan took out a tier 3 sword from her storage ring, and began to compensate for the crown prince's swordplay.

The longer the speed of the crown prince was more invisible to the ordinary eye.The Jade emperor who saw that, was so very proud of the achievement of his son who was able to master the speed of light technique, so much so, which is a hereditary technique from the jade range.

Yan Lan continued to keep up with the crown prince, with the techniques of space and time she had, not the least of which seemed to be pressed by the crown prince's attack.

The crown prince slashed his sword twice forward, then a golden sliver of light formed a cross directly towards the direction Yan Lan was in.

Yan Lan salted several times in the air to avoid the crown prince's attack, and spun around for a moment like a topsy-turvy, then counterattacked by slamming her fist towards the crown prince.

Seeing Yan Lan's attack arriving, the crown prince quickly crossed his sword in front of his chest, then a clash ensued.

The crown prince was dragged backwards several meters, while Yan Lan again set her foot on the arena floor, without the slightest sound being heard.

"I won't lose against you Yan Lan...!!" shouted the crown prince.

Instantly the clothes worn by the crown prince were shattered by the golden light, thus leaving the crown prince bare-chested.

All the burly muscles of the crown prince were sticking out, from his pore came out a dazzling golden light.

"Body of light.!!, it turned out that all this time the Jade emperor had passed down the high-level techniques he had on to the crown prince, interesting!!, I will try to defeat one of the legendary techniques possessed by the Jade fortune" whispered Yan Lan.

Yan Lan carried out a standby position with all possible surprise attacks, from the crown prince.

Sure enough, the crown prince who harbored anger immediately attacked Yan Lan back, he darted quickly towards Yan Lan and suddenly just arrived the crown prince's body split and became 5 people in common.

The five similar forms of the crown prince, instantly dispersing around Yan Lan, they charged at Yan Lan with slashes and punches that instantly rained down on her.

Yan Lan served the crown prince with a capable sword technique, and in the end one of the crown prince's forms jumped into the air and slashed his sword forward.

Instantly the five shadows of the crown prince returned to being one, and gave him abundant power.

Yan Lan fended off the sword slash that was pointing at him, but Yan Lan's sword was still too weak to deal with the crown prince's golden Jade sword and...

"Track...!!"

Yan Lan's sword was cut into two pieces.

Not yet Yan Lan lost her shock, there arrived a slumping kick from the crown prince directly lodged in Yan Lan's body.

Yan Lan slammed backwards to the point of rolling on the ground.

"I admit the light techniques of the jade empire are indeed great," Yan Lan said as she stood back up.

The aura released by the demon slaying sword was so oppressive.

Azuma who was at the battle-winning podium, instantly felt the blood within his body rustle as he felt the sword aura effect that Yan Lan was exuding.

Azuma stared intently at Yan Lan who was inside the fighting arena.

"We see...., who will remain standing in the arena later Yan Lan...!!" said Azuma.

Back to the battle arena...

With the demon slaying sword in his hand, Yan Lan instantly turned things around, it was now the crown prince's turn to be violently pressed.

The speed of light, and his five shadows, did little to help the crown prince in stemming Yan Lan's attack, which was tubered towards him.

Many times the crown prince had to be knocked to the floor of the arena, due to the kicks and punches punched by Yan Lan, but the crown prince could rise again.

Using the light shield that was within his body, the crown prince was able to stand up and not sustain any significant injuries when Yan Lan's attack hit his body.

"I can't possibly use heavenly fire or hell core fire to destroy the crown prince, because it could endanger his life, even if he's the successor to the throne of leadership as emperor in the Jade empire, after all," inner Yan Lan.

Yan Lan again attacked the crown prince, even though the crown prince had fallen and crashed many times onto the arena floor, she remained persistent to continue her fight.

"Ha.ha.ha.you will not be able to hurt me Yan Lan, your attack is nothing, this time I will finish you!!" shouted the crown prince.

The light on the crown prince's body grew increasingly dense, before long the crown prince again attacked Yan Lan by jumping into the air, and then slashing his sword forward.

Yan Lan who had been prepared with the attack from the crown prince, instantly raised the demon slaying sword above her head, until the clash of the two swords occurred which made a shockwave that rattled the arena protectors.

Yan Lan pushed her sword up then the crown prince's body was pushed backwards. With a twist of his body Yan Lan then salted in the air and directed the slash of the demon slaying sword towards the crown prince.

Feeling that the power he possessed was able to withstand the sword attack from Yan Lan, then the crown prince instantly fended off the attack of the demon-killing sword that was pointing at him.

The clash of the two swords clashed, thus making the golden Jade sword cut into two pieces, by the sharpness of the demon slaying sword that was within Yan Lan's grasp. Meanwhile, the crown prince's body was unable to withstand the demonic killer's sword energy, until he was thrown and crashed into the battle arena's protector.

Fresh blood shot out from the corner of the crown prince's lips, leaving his body instantly helpless. The golden light that came out of the body slowly dimmed the ground, and soon disappeared altogether.

The Jade Emperor and the empress who saw her son helpless, immediately darted towards the direction the son was, they were both very worried about the safety of the crown prince.

Yan Lan did not care about the existence of the green gem continent's ruling emperor in the battle arena, she steadied her steps to leave the battle arena and walked towards the top of the battle-winning podium.

The crown prince was immediately taken to the medical hall, to get first aid.

The fight now continued between Azuma and Xing Xia Lin's daughter. It looked as if azuma had entered the fighting arena and was followed up by Xing Xia Lin's daughter behind him.

This time the chairman of Yan Lou did not want if the royal family would be injured again, so he suggested to Xing Xia Lin's daughter, to resign from the fight that would soon begin.

Hearing Yan Lou's chief request, Xing Xia Lin's daughter resolutely refused her advice, the princess would still continue to fight even though she would later lose the fight against Azuma.

Because of the harsh stance of the princess, then chairman Yan Lou can not do anything, he also re-installed a protector that protects the audience from the effects of the fight on the arena.

Shortly afterwards chairman Yan Lou left the fighting arena, which signified the fight between the 2 cultivators had begun.

Xing Xia Lin's daughter drew out both of her swords, and attacked Azuma with slashes as well as punches that pointed at the sensitive area on Azuma's body.

Azuma whose cultivation level was far above Xing Xia Lin's daughter, did not want to directly finish the fight, she wanted to play a little with the princess, she wanted to play with the princess, he also simply dodged and brushed off easily all the onslaught on the part of Xing Xia Lin's daughter.

"Let me as much as you, before I kill you," Azuma whispered.

Demon prince Azuma was indeed planning to finish off the entire descendant of the Jade emperor, so that in the future the descendants of the emperor would not prevent the demon race from dominating the green gem continent.

And the plan was for Xing Xia Lin's daughter to be finished off first above the arena.

The attacking speed of the princess is increasing, but not once the attack is fruitful. Even Azuma was like a mockery that made Xing Xia Lin's daughter even more annoyed at him.

"It's enough that I'm playing around with you princess, this time prepare yourself to meet your ancestors" said Azuma.

With a single quick move, Azuma managed to net a crushing blow to Xing Xia Lin's daughter's body.

The princess' body crashed far back and smashed into the arena floor, she did not expect that the young man before her was so powerful.

Xing Xia Lin's daughter tried to get up on her feet, but Azuma attacked her again and...

"Your...!!"

A loud kick pointed towards Princess Xing Xia Ling's stomach, which caused the princess to grimace in pain, and spit out fresh blood from between her lips.

Demon Prince Azuma wanted to immediately end the fight, he again unleashed one long-range punch that was energized in a high level.

A streak of black light shot toward Xing Xia Lin's already helpless daughter's body, before the ray hit Xing Xia Lin's daughter's body, a white ray immediately resisted the demon prince Azuma's attack.

The two rays clashed which caused a deafening explosion, it appeared that Yan Lan was lifting up the body of Xing Xia Lin's already unconscious daughter.

He is no match for you, wait for when we meet in the final then I will be a worthy opponent for you" Yan Lan said.

Yan Lan carried Xing Xia Lin's daughter towards the members of the Glacier clan's medicine hall, who ran towards her.

Seeing the condition of Princess Xing Xia Lin who was severely injured, made chairman Yan Lou stop the fight for a while.

Chairman Hyo jin who was on the main podium, headed straight to the sect medicine hall, and saw firsthand the condition of the princess.

"It's very dangerous for his safety, he can be beyond help if we treat him too late, while my equipment to cure Xing Xia Lin's daughter is in my residence within the Alchemist guild," said chairman Hyo jin.

"Please save my daughter chief..!!" moaned the royal empress who was also in that place.

"He could be healed if Yan Lan came to heal him, but to heal the princess needed a huge Qi, while Yan Lan herself would fight with Azuma, there was no way he would be willing to cure Xing Xia Lin's daughter," said chairman Hyo jin.

"I will ask Yan Lan to heal my daughter" the Jade Emperor said.

Seriate.
