A Failure’s hopeful Journey - Chapter 314
You Xi Wang heard the bull demon talking and a wicked smile appeared on his face. He walked forward and asked, “Yo, what rank do you hold in the demon army?”
The bull was surprised to hear someone asking him his military rank. He replied, “You, how do you know that I am from the demon military?”
You Xi Wang chuckled and said, “I have sent enough of your troops to the other side. So naturally, I know. However, I know that even a demon general cannot master the bloodthirst instilled by the darkness. So, it made me curious, how do you have sanity flashing in your eyes?”
The bull demon was angry when he heard that the guy had killed his compatriots but when he heard that the person has only seen a demon general, he became smug again. He said, “I am the Demon prince, Yhal Ghol is my name. You may not have any idea about the strength one can master when one refine the thirst of darkness. How about it? Shall we try?”
As he was speaking, his eyes were roaming around the crowd. Suddenly his gaze focused on the Celestial maiden standing at the forefront of the crowd. His eyes sparked.
Fenny looked at the situation and clicked her tongue, the demon had yet to say anything when she said, “Any bets, how brutal will be his death?”
Allan said, “You say, brutal than the guy in Sahasa town?”
Neo said, “I guess he will reach a new record. Say, is demon meat edible?”
Yuki frowned and said, “Such a low taste, Neo you have fallen.”
The guy had his lips twitch and said, “It is for the wolves.”
Tiberius was also watching the scene in front of him and his hair was standing on their ends. He did not understand what was going on. Similar to him was only one person, Onyxia. She was curious and asked, “What are you people talking about?”
Gena said, “That thing cast a bad glare at elder sister. You Xi Wang will kill him brutally.”
Onyxia was surprised to hear the absolution contained in the sentence. She knew that You Xi Wang was strong but she did not have high hopes. The bull demon gave off a scary pressure and You Xi Wang in contrast looked too calm.
…
Inside the circle, the bull demon said, “How about we bet?”
You Xi Wang replied in a calm voice, “That person is not an asset. How about we fight and if I lose you can call her to fight you and then you two can decide things on your own.”
The bull demon was surprised at how this man understood and he broke out in a peal of laughter, “Hahahaha, you are smart. I like smart humans. They have the best blood.”
You Xi Wang nodded and replied, “Shall we get it on?”
The bull demon held a big epee sword in his hand and supported it over his shoulder. He nodded and said, “Very well.”
The boy nodded and his figure flickered. Yhal Ghol was not slow to respond and he also moved. The two figures appeared together in the center of the circle. While the bull had shot forth with his left fist, You Xi Wang had raised his left fist as well.
The boy was wearing his jade brawling gloves. The demons were far stronger than humans in terms of physique and the boy never underestimated his opponents. This was the secret of his success. The fists connected and the impact sent off a strong shockwave in the ground.
The floor could be seen vaguely rippling. This was not a test of strengths but a full-fledged killing blow. The bull demon also did not underestimate You Xi Wang. The system said, “Damn, this thing is strong. Exactly what you need to grind with the war god sutra.”
You Xi Wang said, “Shut up.”
The bull demon took a couple of steps back and the right hand holding the epee came down from his shoulder. The shot was directly aimed at You Xi Wang’s neck as he happened to be in the range of the weapon. When has the latter given up his guard?
His hand flicked and purgatory came up in his hand. His hand slashed at the big epee. The blow was dealt with his complete strength and the sword also did not fail him. The two swords clashed and the size of the two gave off a strange view to the eyes of the people but purgatory repelled the big epee while it was still inside the sheath.
The Bull demon did not let the aftershock reach his hand and gave up on the sword. He moved forward to clobber You Xi Wang with his fists, but the boy was similar to him. He gave off a low growl and said, “War god Fists.”
His figure vanished and purgatory kept floating in the void. The boy appeared in front of the bull demon and they began to exchange fists. You Xi Wang countered every incoming blow with pin-pint accuracy. The bull demon discovered that You Xi Wang did not seem to be fighting extremely fast and planned to exhaust his tanks.
…
Fenny said, “Whom of you have ever heard of his move, War God Fist, come forward to enlighten me.”
The people shook their heads, but suddenly they began to enlighten by the situation inside the circle.
…
The pace of the exchange did not change much in the favor of Yhal Ghol. But You Xi Wang had begun to fight him at an even faster and lethal pace. His blows were all aimed at the vital points and the blows were not shot in a chaotic order. They were a set of patterns but the boy made it evolve by applying a random set of combinations and permutations.
The field was echoing with loud booms. You Zhichi said, “Channel spirit energy inside the reinforcement barrier.”
Fenny asked with surprise, “Big sis, will that not be too soon. The fight is yet to close.”
The celestial maiden replied to her, “No, the barriers will not hold. Their impact is too strong. Look at the ground.”
When they cast their gazes at the ground they gulped, the ground was rippling as if a pond of water in rain. The shocking aftermath of the blows was enough to give a wake-up call to the people. They could not feel much of an impact because they were isolated by the barriers. Fenny relayed a command and asked the people to channel spirit energy in the barrier reinforcements.
She also asked Onyxia to arrange for a few people to cast a new one immediately. The dwarven princess was reacted quickly and called over her people. They began to work in accordance to the instructions.
…
The fight raged on and on, the pace was so fast the people could only see after images blurring together. Suddenly the stagnation broke and the duel tipped in You Xi Wang’s favor by half a step. The young war god made the demon prince retreat by half a step.
It can be tagged as tactic understanding, the two stopped exchanging blows and backed away by a few steps. Yhal Ghol said, “You are strong, in the demon kingdom, none except my father can defeat me. Even if it is half a step, it is a big thing you have achieved.”
You Xi Wang tilted his head, “Can you hold on?”
His question was obviously to ask if the guy can keep on fighting. His words made the bull demon surprised but then he chuckled and said, “You can hold on, then I can definitely hold on. Let’s go.”
That said, he made a grasping gesture and the epee stabbed in the ground flew over to his side. You Xi Wang also made a gesture and purgatory flew in his hand. He said, “I hope you are as good at handling the sword as you are at your fists.”
He took out the sword of its sheath with a shrill shing sound. The wind became sharp, prickling the eyes of the spectators. You Zhichi said, “He is going to use the sword. You all, do not look at his blade directly. The dark phoenix inside is not friendly to people other than her master.”
