Sword Among Us Chapter 553

Chapter 553 - Retain Right

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The villa master stood up!

He looked around at the sect leaders of the six great clans, Five Sword Sect Alliance and other sects, and once he gained a common view, he made his announcement.

“Since the fight ended in a draw, I have decided that both sides will retain the right to continue competing.”

The moment he finished speaking, quite a number of people instantly felt relieved.

They looked forward to the fight between One Emperor and Happy, and if they missed out on such an exciting match, they would definitely think that it was a pity.

But there were also a few people who thought it was a pity already.

Vast Heaven was one of them!

If One Emperor was announced to have lost his right to compete, there would be no need to say anything else. Vast Heaven would become the second strongest in the world, and he would be a full step ahead of One Emperor, the delight of which could not be described in words.

Silver Wolf and Little North were also regretful, but their thoughts were different.

Silver Wolf was worried that Happy would lose. After all, One Emperor and Happy’s promise was about three months later. But if they fought now, they would be fighting in public, before the eyes of the world.

If Happy lost, his mysteriousness and strength would become a stain. At the very least, everyone would come to know that Happy was not invincible, and that would affect even Mu Clan’s morale.

As for Little North, the brat was thinking about how great it would be if he could stand above One Emperor in terms of rank. They were in a martial arts tournament, and if he could get a higher rank, how awesome would that be when he went out to boast about it?! AH, SUCH A PITY!

When One Emperor heard the villa master’s announcement, he cast a deep glance at Zhou Zhiruo. Then, he returned to the stage without saying a word.

At that moment, Momo, who had never spoken, suddenly redirected her gaze and looked at Silver Wolf. “Up until this moment, One Emperor has never lost. Yet he fought on even grounds with Zhou Zhiruo, so he might think that he lost to Happy in some sense. Happy’s chance has arrived.”

“What?”

“Didn’t you notice that One Emperor’s aura seemed to have changed slightly?” Momo pointed at the person on the stage.

The group was stunned. Little North and Silver Wolf looked at each other before they quickly observed the situation seriously.

Once they examined it, they looked at each other at a loss. It was just as Momo said. Even though One Emperor looked very calm, compared to before, something seemed to have been added to his aura.

It seemed like One Emperor’s temperament had changed!

“This is a good chance!”

A faint hint of a smile appeared on Little North’s and Silver Wolf’ lips. They naturally did not wish for One Emperor to win. Right now, anything that would prove beneficial to Happy was something that was worthy of happiness.

However, Happy did not notice that.

Another challenger soon got up to his stage once Master Kong Xiang got down! He was short, thin, old, ugly, had a fierce expression, and an awe-inspiring presence about him. He was also an old acquaintance.

Black-winged Bat King of Ming Cult, Wei Yixiao!

“Hehe, boy, Master Kong Xiang might have let you have an easy time with those one hundred moves, but I won’t give you such a chance. Bring out your real abilities and let me see just what is it about you that made the elites of the six great sects and my cult master regard you so highly.”

Happy had already finished circulating his qi, and when he heard those words, he stood up and revealed a faint smile. “Since you have the heart to grant me guidance, then I will naturally show you my respect by obeying you, Bat King Wei.”

He had not expected that his opponent in the fifth round would be someone like that!

Happy was a little beside himself with happiness.

Even though Bat King Wei’s lightness skill was matchless and his Freezing Soft Palm was a powerful killing tool, Happy had Nine Yang Skill, which could counter freezing attacks.

The only thing which was slightly more threatening to Happy was Wei Yixiao’s lightness skill.

But when the threat had been reduced by half, Wei Yixiao was no longer his opponent!

“Please!”

Wei Yixiao seemed to have been provoked by Happy’s relaxed smile. He glared at Happy, snorted coldly, and left behind an afterimage on the floor. He closed the distance between them like a phantasmal bolt of lightning.

“Hahahaha! Bat King Wei, do you dare receive one of my strikes?!”

Happy laughed loudly. He was not shocked, but delighted. He instantly executed two palm strikes, and his momentum swiftly increased by a large degree. The fierce, strong, and vigorous palm-generated wind was even more astonishing than before.

Wei Yixiao was an expert in lightness skills, and he avoided four palm strikes in one go. But when he heard Happy’s provocation, he was so irritated that his eyebrows twitched.

He instantly closed in on Happy and shouted fiercely. “Brat, you sure have guts! Take this!”

He pounced forward from the afterimages he left behind in the air. His hands had turned into crystals, and the cold wind that blew was bone-chilling!

The great chill instantly froze the air around him, and an astonishing chill swept through the stage.

Happy was the first to be affected.

But he had already circulated Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill through his body, and it dispelled the chill around him. In fact, his qi even started burning fiercely and showed signs of circulating even faster than before.

In an instant, Happy recovered. He laughed loudly and pushed forward with both palms. He did not bother to dodge the attack and went forth to fight against this Inaction Realm martial artist head-on!

When Wei Yixiao saw that Happy’s momentum had increased to the peak and he had gained the courage to fight against him because of it, he laughed fiercely and continuously. “You ignorant brat, I’ll let you know why you shouldn’t be conceited when you meet your seniors.”

The crystalline Freezing Soft Palm rammed against Happy’s palm.

Something that puzzled him happened then.

Happy’s palm was supposed to immediately freeze up, and even his qi should freeze to the point that it would no longer circulate, but a ball of red light rose from Happy’s face, and an astonishing wave of heat went charging back to Wei Yixiao from his palms.

He felt as if his Freezing Soft Palm had rammed against a ball of magma, and it instantly melted.

Wei Yixiao had already perfected his Freezing Soft Palm, but his qi had once deviated while he practiced it, and he was the most wary of martial arts that focused purely on yang qi.

Once he exchanged blows with Happy, he immediately felt the backlash from his Freezing Soft Palm, and he cried out in surprise. “Gah! Hot! Boy, what’s that technique?!”

He retreated dozens of feet back with his palm partially red and partially white. It did not stop trembling.

His gaze when he looked at Happy also became wary.

“It’s Nine Yang Skill, obviously. This is something that Cult Master Zhang should know clearly. Senior Wei, don’t go, please allow me to see your skills again!”

Happy laughed heartily, and his momentum became even greater. He tapped against the ground and chased after Wei Yixiao while he had the advantage.

Wei Yixiao was shocked.

There was no way he would let Happy catch up to him. He ran around the stage like a phantom.

But Happy was happy that this sort of situation happened. He executed a few more palm strikes, and once his momentum increased to Inaction Realm, he finally reached his peak. Every time he executed a palm strike, their power would be accompanied by an astonishing heatwave that formed a tornado that Wei Yixiao did not dare approach. His presence became increasingly chaotic, and his face was a mixture of rage and fear.

In the end, Zhang Wuji could not bear to watch what was going on on the stage and called out, “Bat King Wei, your Freezing Soft Palm is countered by his Nine Yang Skill; you aren’t his opponent! Please step down!”

“Hmph! Since my cult master has already given his orders, I’ll spare you once. Brat, don’t let me meet you next time, or else, I’ll suck your blood dry. Hmph!”

Wei Yixiao was the Chief Dharma Protector of Ming Cult, but he was forced to dodge and evade the attacks of a junior martial artist. He had made a laughing stock of himself, and it was something very embarrassing for him.

Happy could not help but laugh.

“Senior Wei, you allowed me to win. I will change my ways if I have offended you, and I will definitely go to your cult to ask you for your forgiveness some day!” He knew that Bat King Wei might have a foul mouth, but he was actually someone rather pleasant.

“Hmph, stop with that act, brat.”

Wei Yixiao ignored Happy. While he cursed up a storm, he stormed down the stage, and it caused others to laugh.
