Chapter 211 - Distressed Liu Mengdi
Xue Tong and Xiao Hua"s fight was also intense, but it was not as great as the fight between Prince Dante and Zhu Ren.
Xue Tong"s attacks were sly and insidious and each of his strikes could seriously injure Xiao Hua if she were to be hit. However, Xiao Hua was not an easy opponent, she was able to skillfully block and evade Xue Tong"s malevolent sickle strikes.
In the end, Xue Tong managed to get the win after catching Xiao Hua unprepared. She was also seriously injured, but it was not life-threatening. Her bloodied figure made the hearts of the young men from the crowd feel pain and heartache. They also did not forget to curse Xue Tong for being so ruthless.
"That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare he injure Sister Xiao Hua like this?!"
"I want to beat him up!"
Xiao Hua"s junior disciples expressed their fury and all of them stared at Xue Tong"s figure with hateful glances. If looks could kill, they could have killed him thousands of times over.
Even Yang Zenke felt angry when he saw the pitiful look of Xiao Hua. He felt as if his heart was tugged for no reason after seeing her bedraggled state.
Jiu Shen handed a pill to her a healing pill which immediately cured her injuries. This was the Blood Restoring Dan, and it was a healing pill with unimaginable effects!
Xiao Hua"s injuries healed at a discernible speed and her wounds slowly mended. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after seeing this.
"Are you okay?" A rare trace of concern can be seen in Yang Zenke"s eyes.
Xiao Hua smiled weakly at him as she nodded her head. "Mn."
She felt slightly nervous and shy at the sight of Yang Zenke"s concerned expression.
Yang Zenke suddenly grasped her shoulder as he checked the wounds on her body. This sudden contact from Yang Zenke made Xiao Hua slightly fl.u.s.tered, but she was not repulsed by his touch. Instead, she felt a sense of warmth pervading her heart when she saw the gentle look in the man"s eyes.
"Don"t worry. If I meet him on the stage, I will beat him up for you." Yang Zenke said with a cold look.
Xiao Hua remained silent when she glanced at his incomparably cold eyes. She did not feel afraid when she saw it since she knew that he was angry for her sake.
Ehem! Cough! Cough!
Yang Zenke who was still grasping Xiao Hua"s shoulder suddenly felt annoyed when he heard the fake coughing from behind him. He knew that it was definitely his good friend Han Sen.
He released Xiao Hua"s shoulder and glared at Han Sen as if he wanted to eat him alive.
"Brother Yang, I know that you still want to hold Sister Xiao, but you have to remember that she is still injured." Han Sen scratched the back of his head as he faced Yang Zenke"s dark expression.
Yang Zenke"s gaze softened after hearing Han Sen"s words and he immediately apologized to Xiao Hua for suddenly holding her.
"No, it"s fine, Brother Yang. Grandmaster"s pill is so effective that I no longer feel much pain. My injuries are also healing at a very fast rate. I should be fine after another hour of rest." Xiao Hua smiled tenderly.
Just as the two of them were about to continue their conversation, the overseer suddenly called Liu Mengdi and Beiming Chu to proceed to the fighting arena.
Everyone"s eyes were glued on the two young fighters.
Both these guys were also at the 5th-rank Spirit realm. Beiming Chu was the strongest young disciple of the Beiming Family and he was also the son of the Beiming Family"s patriarch. His position as the next patriarch of their family was already cemented since he was the most gifted and talented youth among their younger generation.
As for Liu Mengdi, his complexion was not as good as the other day. He seemed to be troubled by a certain matter and he appeared to be out of focus. He only sobered up when he heard the overseer announce the start of the fight.
Liu Mengdi took a glance at Beiming Chu. His opponent was a muscular man with short black hair. He did not look like someone from the younger generation, but he seemed to be a soldier who had experienced a number of b.l.o.o.d.y wars.
Beiming Chu was much slower than Liu Mengdi, but his striking power and strength were obviously many times greater than the latter and this could be seen from the devastating attacks that he released.
Each time Beiming Chu releases a punch, a violent gust of wind would follow. His kicks also carried a tremendous amount of power that could immediately trample anyone on the same level as him!
This was the power of Beiming Chu, the top expert of the Beiming Family!
Liu Mengdi carefully evaded Beiming Chu"s attacks and he did not even dare to block them using his body. It was foolish to do that and it could only injure him seriously.
With a tight grasp of his sword, Liu Mengdi decided to use his advantage in speed to defeat Beiming Chu.
Beiming Chu"s weapon was a pair of battle gauntlets that looked like an arm of a draconic savage beast. His legs down to his toes were also fully covered by his dragon-like armor.
Beiming Chu looked like an imposing war general in that armor!
Jiu Shen frowned when he saw how Liu Mengdi fought. He could sense that the young man was not in his best state of mind before the battle even begun. He quickly scanned the crowd, but he failed to see Liu Mengdi"s father. He made a few guesses in his mind, but he was not entirely sure of what had happened.
"Too bad. The kid is going to be defeated if this continues. That Beiming Chu is not an ordinary fighter and his physical strength is even greater compared to the fourth prince. The body strengthening technique of the Beiming Family seems to be similar to that of Hu Xiandao"s. Is the Beiming Family related to the Mythos Wildlands?" Jiu Shen silently speculated in his heart.
