Towards Eternity
Ch 416's. Reducing the Number of Tournament Participants (I)
OH!!!!!
The sound of gongs echoed along with all the hallway doors that were on the sidelines of the arena closed simultaneously.
Everyone, whether the participants in the arena or the spectators outside the arena, all fell silent upon hearing the sound of the second gong.
There was no sound or movement from them all.
The previously crowded situation suddenly became tense even in silence.
Srrck.....
"These arengggg!!!!"
"Stop them all!!!!!"
Suddenly one of the group of participants shouted out loud, and the fight began.
The participants of the tournament who had previously only been silent, now started fighting each other in the arena.
In one corner of the arena where Weng Lou's group was located.
Weng Lou and the others were still silent in their place and staring around them which had already happened a fight.
"Hei Wan, are you sure you're okay with us? What if the elder who is with you becomes angry and you get into trouble once you return to the Weng Ancestral Family later?" ask Weng Lou to Weng Wan while watching one of the participants who was fighting with other tournament participants.
"A-Ah.that's the one I'm really confused about. Elder Zhe did not call us at all nor tell us anything before, so I think he is okay with this," replied Weng Wan who was also as confused as Weng Lou.
"But are your friends okay? From what I see their strength is only average when fighting against them before. I'm not sure they'll be able to handle the participants who are at the 8th stage Soul Cleansing realm and above."
Weng Ying Luan also commented. According to him, the disciples who had come together with Weng Wan, Weng Hua, and Weng Ning from the Weng Ancestral Family were not very strong, either, and it was likely that they would be in danger if Weng Wan and the others were not together with them.
"You don't have to worry about that, just calm down. There was Elder Zhe who was with them. Although it is only at the realm of Soul Unification stage 2, but we know very well how powerful Elder Zhe is.
While still in the place of the Weng Ancestral Family, Elder Zhe was able to fight against those who were in the 3rd stage Soul Unification realm even though it was still at the 2nd stage. Therefore he was sent to guard us ten times by the Head of the House."
Weng Hua answered Weng Ying Luan lightly.
"really? Good then. I'm not you you guys get in trouble just because you're with us here" said Weng Lou.
"Sorry to interrupt your chat, but these people can't wait to play with us." Pang Baicha spoke while pointing at the group of participants who darted towards them while carrying their weapons.
Weng Lou and the others turned their heads and then smiled looking at those people who were pointing at them.
"Well, let's start warming up first, this first half will last long enough in my opinion, so try to finish them off in 1 strike."
Walking leisurely, Weng Lou then raised his hand and a golden light was created on it.
The light started to change shape into sword Qi but then before it formed perfectly, the swords suddenly stopped forming as the voice of Ye Lao resounded inside Weng Lou's head.
"Stop it, son" he said suddenly.
"What's wrong? Why are you telling me to stop in the middle?" weng Lou asked in confusion.
He was ready to launch his Qi swords at the other participants before him. This he can use to quickly reduce the number of participants, rather than having to wait for others to do it.
"Aren't you tired of wearing that way all the time? I'm even getting sick of seeing you overuse your Qi to fight against people weaker than you," Ye Lao's criticism instantly made Weng Lou become annoyed.
Even so Weng Lou remained self-aware, and did not just let out his emotions. He took a deep breath, then removed the golden light that had previously been above him.
"Then what do you want me to do? Tell my friends to attack them?" asked Weng Lou lazily.
"No, it's not. You said it was warming yourself, didn't you? You should have attacked them using your physical strength alone. Use your Qi if indeed you cannot fight just by using your physique to fight against the other participants," Ye Lao explained.
That's right, Weng Lou himself said that this was a warm-up. Using Qi absolutely cannot be considered a warm-up, because it is not a moving body, just Qi alone.
"Haaa...alright..alright..."
Scratching the back of his head that did not itch, Weng Lou then walked forward towards the participants who were moving towards him.
With light steps he continued walking forward, while Weng Ying Luan and the others silently stared at Weng Lou.
"What does he want to do?" Man Yue Yang was a little confused.
They had previously suspected that Weng Lou would use his Qi to instantly finish off those people, but then Weng Lou suddenly reabsorbed his Qi, which left them confused.
"Hahahaha..it should be like that!!"
Unlike the others, Weng Ying Luan actually immediately walked forward and walked beside Weng Lou.
"I want to move my body a little, let's see how far you and I can beat these people without using the slightest Qi," weng Ying Luan said to Weng Lou who was beside her.
He said that in a slightly loud voice, so that it could be heard by Weng Wan and the others who were behind him.
"Ah, I understand now...."
Taps....
"Wait for me you two." Weng Wan rushed forward and came along with Weng Lou and Weng Ying Luan while Lin Mei, and the others stared at their backs.
"Haaa.boys are all the same," commented Weng Hua.
"Hey, we are fair to be fair, I take the middle, you two left and right" Weng Lou spoke to Weng Wan and Weng Ying Luan beside him.
"okay."
"certain."
The three of them then stopped walking as their distance with the participants moving towards them was only five meters away from them.
"Start!" exclaimed Weng Lou who then immediately charged forward and was immediately followed by Weng Ying Luan and Weng Wan behind him.
"Stop them!!!" One of the men exclaimed while raising his weapon.
Just when Weng Lou was already in front of the participant who was at the very front, Weng Lou quickly moved his hand and immediately caught the person's weapon.
He pulled the person's body, and then kicked him over using his knees.
"Agh-ah!"
Like paper, the man was thrown high while his other comrades came and came charging towards Weng Lou.
"Hey! Don't attack him, we're here, too!!"
Weng Ying Luan who also came forward, released a tread attack into the stomach of one of the men.
Buck!
With success his punch pushed the person, along with his partner who was behind him.
"Don't be too hard, I feel a little sorry for them" said Weng Wan who then jumped towards another group of participants.
He clenched his hands, and then did a fist right on the head of a man who was a member of that group of participants.
Brack-!
His punch sent the man crashing to the ground, with his head first touching the ground. A second later, there was no movement from the man at all.
"You yourself are also too rude, stupid!" Weng Ying Luan criticized Weng Wan.
The punch from Weng looked extremely light, but the power it unleashed was truly incredible.
This was the strength of their training results during these three weeks.
Weng Lou, Weng Ying Luan, and Weng Wan did not stop unleashing a single strike.
The three of them immediately attacked the other members of the group with punches, kicks, or tread attacks on all of them.
Half a minute later, they had finished defeating all the members of that group of participants.
"Damn it can't even be called a warm-up" said Weng Ying Luan who kicked the stomach of one of the participants he had defeated so easily.
"You're right, I don't know those who are too weak, or we who are too strong. They actually lost in just one strike." Weng Wan spoke.
Hearing the two, Weng Lou simply smiled and shook his head.
Clearly those who were too strong so that the participants who attacked them earlier could not provide resistance to the attacks that the three gave.
Within three weeks of practicing, Weng Wan was successfully at the peak stage 7 Soul Cleansing realm, while Weng Ying Luan who was actually training like a madman managed to ascend to the early stage 9 Soul Cleansing realm.
That's a very extreme increase. Even for those who are indeed a talented martial artist since birth it is impossible to increase that far.
This was all thanks to the ability of Weng Lou's Book of Immortality.
Three weeks in this Hundan City, Weng Lou spent quite a bit of his time hunting in the Mist Forest near the location of the former castle belonging to the Blood Group.
Using the bodies of the ferocious beasts he hunted to be absorbed by the Book of Immortality, they were able to increase the level of their practices very easily.
"It seems like it would be a little boring if we just fight against them, come with me, we clean up the other participants around our group place," said Weng Lou who then stepped back on his feet, towards the two groups who were fighting.
Weng Ying Luan and Weng Wan stared at each other and smiled widely. They chased after Weng Lou.
"Excuse me, we'd like to join you in your fight." Weng Lou spoke very casually when they had reached the place where the two groups were fighting each other.
The attention of the two groups immediately shifted to Weng Lou and the others. But they only stared at the three for a few moments, before then resuming their fight.
Weng Lou, Weng Ying Luan, and Weng Wan were completely ignored.
"Hahaha...they completely ignore us," said Weng Ying Luan.
Weng Lou was just silent, he then raised his right leg high and with half his strength, he stomped his foot.
Brack!!!!
The small guard was instantly created just from the stomping of his legs, and Weng Lou nodded at that.
"It seems like this," he said, then suddenly his figure disappeared from there.
In the next instant, the figure of Weng Lou had already appeared in the middle of those two groups fighting each other.
Weng Lou slightly bowed, and with a quick movement, he kicked his foot at one of the people nearby, using half of his physical strength.
"Urgh!!!!"
Buck!!!
In that one kick, the body of the man he kicked was instantly thrown and crashed into the other participants.
The two groups again stopped fighting and all of them stared towards Weng Lou who was in the middle of them.
"Don't blame me, you're the ones who won't pay attention to us."
Finished saying that, Weng Lou again lifted his leg and then took a kick into the empty air.
Shuuu- SRRAA!!!!
From the empty kick of Weng Lou, a sharp wind was created that severely hit one of the participants. An incision wound was created just like that when the wind hit his chest.
The man's mouth was wide open, no sound came from him, and the next second his body fell to the ground.
"Ba-Fucking ass...."
"Buck!!!! How dare you!!!!!"
"Yahoo!!!! Kill that fucking kid!!!"
One by one the men from the group exclaimed and cursed at Weng Lou. They fiercely changed their target of attack on Weng Lou, while Weng Lou only gave a mocking smile.
"They are easily provoked."
