I am the Young Master - Chapter 33
When Dai Bao heard that he had a challenger he only smirked at the foolishness of the challenger to choose him.
And Jin Fen on the other hand was waiting in the queue to fight on a free stage.
‘This is going to be fun…’ for some reason that I didn’t know myself I was rooting for Jin Fen. I mean this is always fun to cheer for the underdog, right?
More time passed and Li Huang was waiting in anticipation. This fight could be the start of Jin Fen’s ‘arc’ against the heavenly sword sect. Somebody would do something and Jin Fen gets a set back so he thinks that all the sect members are pieces of shit or something.
‘This is how it went on the novels, right?’ Li Huang thought with a pondering look on his face.
‘Let’s just wait and see…’ Li Huang shrugged.
After a few more minutes one of the stages got empty and it was Dai Bao and Jin Fen turns to fight for the seat.
Just as they got on the stage the trash talk started. But Dai Bao was not the one who started it but one of his lackeys.
“An outer court disciple dares to challenge young master Dai Bao! You better kowtow and plead for mercy.” The lackey snickered.
Jin Fen didn’t even look at the lackey and looked straight at Dai Bao who was in front of him.
“Even a dog acts fierce when his Master is present…” He nonchalantly told Dai Bao.
If you looked carefully you could see Dai Bao’s eyebrow twitch.
“Are you here to fight or to talk nonsense?” Dai Bao talked back dismissively.
“Good that you want to fight, I am a bit tired so I would be seating after this.” Jin Fen told Dai Bao with a smirk.
This was a blatant hint to the throne that Dai Bao was occupying. What he said could be interpreted to him saying that he would be winning this fight and after that he would be seating for a while because no one would be able to win against him to replace him on that seat.
This didn’t go unnoticed by Dai Bao and his face twisted in anger. No one had ever disrespected him in this way so he easily lost control of his emotion and his emotions showed on his face.
“Good, good, good. You talk big but let me see if you have any qualifications to talk nonsense this much.” Dai Bao said with a visible frown on his face.
They didn’t waste any more time and attacked at the same time.
From what I know Dai Bao is on the second stage of the meridian formation realm with 10 of 12 meridians unlocked in the first stage. This shows he is talented but it also has to be said that unlocking meridians in lower stages is easier but none the less it is a great feat.
Dai Bao slashed his sword at Jin Fen’s face without a care for the latter’s safety.
Jin Fen used the side of his sword to parry Dai Bao’s attack and with the gained momentum tried to land an attack of his own.
As the swords were sparking in contact with each other, Jin Fen continued moving his sword toward the hilt of Dai Bao’s sword to land an unexpected attack on Dai Bao.
But Dai Bao was one of the best core disciples of this generation so how can he not see what Jin Fen was trying to achieve. He has trained for fights like this for as long as he could remember so this was nothing for him.
Raising his leg, Dai Bao kicked Jin Fen on the chest, and Jin Fen flew backward and hit the ground on the edge of the stage. If he was thrown out of the stage he would lose automatically so it was a good thing for him, or so you would have thought.
Getting himself in front of Jin Fen who was trying to get up from where he landed, Dai Bao looked down at him.
“Do not worry, I controlled my power so that you won’t be thrown out of the stage so soon.” Dai Bao smiled evilly.
“That wouldn’t be fun, don’t you agree?” Dai Bao’s smile grows wider.
After a few more tries, Jin Fen was able to stand up.
“Is this how you should be talking to your grandfather?” Jin Fen also smiled, but his smile was more terrifying because his teethes were all bloody so he looked like a demon.
‘Damn, he used the grandfather line!’ Li Huang thought to himself while eating some dried fruits.
Dai Bao who saw the smug look on Jin Fen’s face got angrier and got ready to attack ‘this trash’ again.
This time Dai Bao didn’t bother with techniques or whatnot, he lifted Jin Fen from his collar and throw him to the opposite side of the arena.
Jin Fen who had hardly stood up had no chance to counter this attack and without any sign of resistance hit the stage on the other side.
When Jin Fen’s whole body was in pain, Dai Bao was walking leisurely toward him.
“What happened? You were talking about me having dogs, but you are not even qualified to be this young master’s dog.” Dai Bao spoke while opening his arms to show that he is wide open to receive an attack.
After that, you could see Jin Fen getting up with more difficulty than before.
But on his face instead of despair was… a smile.
Yes, a wide smile.
When everyone was following the fight with eyes that would say that this fight is already decided, Li Huang on other hand was watching with eyes full of stars.
‘This must be the moment. It has to be!’ Li Huang thought.
“Let me end this fight then.” Jin Fen said while wiping his bloody mouth with his sleeves.
Dai Bao was confused by this development. You can say that he didn’t expect this so he had nothing ready in his mind to answer this.
Before Dai Bao could think of some cool line to answer, Jin Fen continued.
“Evil God transformation, the First form.” Jin Fen only mumbled, but Li Huang heard him clearly because he had all of his focus on him.
“You would be on a bed lying down after this, so I would be taking the seat.” Jin Fen arrogantly declared.
Just as Jin Fen finished speaking you could feel a powerful energy forming and gathering inside him very fast.
Dai Bao who was the one who was the closest person to this phenomenon know that if he doesn’t do anything now, he would be the one losing so he acted fast and attacked Jin Fen.
But alas, it was late and Jin Fen had gathered enough energy.
With just a punch Dai Bao was shot out of the stage and lost the fight.
The spectators were in awe of this result. Jin Fen on other hand went to his seat and sat down. He took a glance at Lai Xinyue on the way.
This didn’t go unnoticed by Li Huang who was looking at Jin Fen but he didn’t see that Lai Xinyue was sneaking a glance at himself.
“This was a clear example of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.” One of the disciples of the crowd blurted out.
