Towards Eternity
420. The End of the First Selection
Just after Weng Hua finished defeating her opponent who was a woman armed with two daggers, Weng Ning had already started fighting against two people at once.
His two opponents were a man who looked to be in his fifties, and a large man with bald hair.
Buck!!!!
The first to give the attack was a bald man. He gave an extremely powerful fist towards Weng Ning, but it immediately managed to be fended off by him using the chunks of ice he created in the blink of an eye.
KRACK!!!!
The chunk of ice the size of an adult human body shattered within seconds of receiving a punch from the bald man.
Ssss.......
The bald man did not continue his attack, but rather stood still and looked at his right hand which he had used to hit earlier.
Seen on his right hand it began to turn a bluish pale color which was caused by the cold temperature of the ice he had been punching before.
"This cold feeling...."
Holding the cold in his hand, the bald man raised his head and looked at Weng Ning who was still standing still after fending off the bald man's punch.
"Little girl tell me, what is your Dantian element?" asked the bald man with an emotionless face.
Weng Ning was just silent, there was no intention from her to answer him at all. He chose to put up a position ready to fight, as the answer.
The bald man frowned, before then smiling widely.
"If you don't want to answer, then let me figure out the answer myself."
He flowed his Qi into his hand which turned blue from the cold, and made it return to normal. Bending his knees, he darted swiftly before Weng Ning.
"Thousand Blows of Blood Forgiveness!"
The punches were released by the bald man to Weng Ning, but Weng Ning was still in place, not moving to avoid it there once.
Krack....csss!!!!
The bald man's punches slammed into Weng Ning's body, and the bald man's strength smiled sinisterly. Weng Ning's body shattered into pieces like glass after being hit by his punch.
"So right, Ice Dantian. Little girl, you are a treasure in the middle of this trash!" exclaim the bald man.
Weng Ning's body that was destroyed by him earlier was just an ice sculpture created by Weng Ning to fool him.
"Junk? If the trash you're referring to is you and Lina the other person, then yes I'm in the middle of the trash."
Not far away, Weng Ning's figure appeared with both of her hands already letting out an extremely piercing chill.
"Hand him, Ning! Don't give me mercy!" Weng Hua who had just defeated his opponent, excited Weng Ning and was reciprocated with a small smile by him.
Weng Ning stepped forward, and approached the bald man's body calmly, while the bald man was already prepared to make his next attack.
"Ning? That's yourname? Pretty good too. Our Grand Priestess would be happy if I could take you to her."
"No need to bother, I'm not going with you. The Eternal Ice Eve!"
Psssss-SHUUU!!!!!
A strong gust of wind shot out from both palms of Weng Ning who then moved swiftly regarding the bald man.
The bald man reacted too late, and the next second his entire body was already frozen without him noticing. His face seemed to be in disbelief at what had happened to him, but he was already unable to do anything since he was already frozen.
"Hahaha..the stingy priest was careless, he let himself off guard at the crucial moments."
The other male participant who was Weng Ning's opponent appeared beside the already frozen bald man. He kicked the bald man's leg, and then his body shattered into pieces.
"This cold makes me feel good, son, what if you give me more of that cold." The male participant who looked to be in his fifties smiled as he grasped the chunks of the body of the previous bald man who had become ice.
The chunks of ice in his hands slowly disappeared bit by bit, until they finally disappeared completely. Weng Ning raised next to his brows seeing that.
His ice had a very cold temperature because it was pure ice, an ordinary person who touched it could turn into ice if not careful, that was what happened to the bald man earlier.
This man in his fifties in front of him could actually soak through his ice that could not melt.
"This one's quite a favor too, can you give me again?"
Within a minute, all the chunks of ice that came from the bald man's body had been absorbed all by the man, making Weng Ning's face become serious.
"Who are you really?"
***
Twenty minutes passed, the 5 participants who had come had all been defeated by Lin Mei and the others.
All that was left was a man in his fifties who was Weng Ning's second opponent.
Currently, Weng Ning was fighting each other's tread with his opponent who turned out to have an almost equal agility to him.
Weng Ning's forehead had already started to appear sweaty as she was getting tired. Twenty minutes of fighting, he gave the most attacks, while his opponent preferred to defend.
His Qi was gradually drained as every attack of his contained Qi. Whether it was due to the tread attack or even the elemental attack, which was clear if he did not also win this fight, then he would enter into a difficult situation.
Meanwhile, Weng Ning's opponent, the forgotten man in his fifties still looked fine.
Bam! Buck!
The attack of Weng Ning's site and his opponent clashed against each other, and made Weng Ning pushed back two meters.
"What's up, son? Are you getting tired? Why don't you just give up?" ask the opponent.
Weng Ning did not reply, he took a breath and then came back to attack.
His opponent only laughed softly before then starting to fend off one by one the attacks from Weng Ning. The coldness released by every attack from Weng Ning he managed to absorb, so Weng Ning's main advantage did not affect him at all.
"This man...how did he absorb the cold from my ice?"
The question continued to echo inside Weng Ning's head, until he lost his concentration and did not see a tread attack from his opponent.
YO!!!
"I'm sorry for interfering, but this fight has been going on for too long."
Just as the man's footprint was about to hit Weng Ning's chest, Weng Lou's figure had already appeared before him, and held the man's footprint.
"The lou?!"
"Hoo? You're great at holding my palms, too."
Shuuu
Weng Lou jumped back while carrying Weng Ning, while the man remained there staring at Weng Lou and Weng Ning.
"You okay?" weng Lou asked Weng Ning.
Weng Ning was silent and lowered her head, she felt embarrassed for having made Weng Lou to the point of having to intervene in her fight, just because of her own carelessness.
"Lou..me..."
"Here you go, you just shut up here. Don't push yourself, this is still the first selection round. It's better not to waste your energy here, because the fight is actually the second selection round" said Weng Lou who smiled at him.
Weng Lou turned around and then looked at Weng Ning's opponent with a confident smile of his.
"From your smile, you seem to know my secret, son." The man spoke calmly.
She smiled at Weng Lou.
"Yes.I have to watch your fight for a while first, only to discover the secret of your absorbing technique."
"really? Then let's see what you're saying."
Suddenly the figure of the man disappeared, as did Weng Lou, himself had disappeared from before Weng Ning.
Taps....
PACKS! BUCK! BAM!!!
A few meters away from Weng Ning's place, there was the sound of a fight echoing. Dust began to rise and cover the surroundings.
"You're fast enough, son, not expecting a young man who could have this kind of speed in the realm of intermediate stage 8 Soul Cleansing," the man said.
IT'S TACKK!!!!
"You too, are only at the peak stage 9 Soul Cleansing realm but have speed in the 2nd stage Soul Unification realm, it is quite great for a man who is almost a grandfather."
Bam!! The figure of the two appeared, and it was seen that their tread attacks met and clashed with each other.
"So, what's my secret?"
"You harnessed your Qi, by forming a whirlpool of Qi in your palm. Making cold temperatures out of my friends doesn't hit your body, does it?"
!!!!
"Hahaha, don't expect a young man to see my secret this easily. Then let's just finish this fight, I've been less interested in continuing for too long."
"Yeah.I also, from the situation around it seems like soon the first selection will be completed."
Srrttt.....
Weng Lou again appeared in front of Weng Ning, while his opponent appeared about 10 meters away from him with the condition of several parts of his body having minor bruises.
"It was a great fight, son, may we meet again in the next round" said the man, who then moved away from the venue, leaving all those watching confused.
"Lou! Why don't you beat that guy?"
Lin Mei who was watching not far away exclaimed at Weng Lou with her face looking irritated.
"No need, the first selection round is complete" said Weng Lou.
"Huh?! Whatchu mean? The gongs haven't even been fuzzy"
OHHHH!!!!!!
"All right, first selection is done!"
Just when the sound of the gong and the man was heard, all the fighting that was going on throughout the arena grounds stopped instantly.
Lin Mei's mouth gaped hearing that. He hurriedly looked around him, and sure enough, all the remaining participants were only 100 people in the entire arena of the match.
