Chapter 45
Among all of the weapons, whips were the nemesis of swords .
They used softness to overcome hardness, longness to overcome shortness .
Just like Hong Tao now, he could easily attack Zhang Ruochen even though he was standing over ten meters away .
His whip movements changed unpredictably, like a golden snake serpentining and hissing sharply in the air .
There was a three-inch spine on the tip of the golden long whip, which was even sharper than the sword tip .
"Very interesting!"
Zhang Ruochen finally made a move!
He transferred his Genuine Qi to the legs and revolved all his 27 Meridians at the same time . Stepping out, he turned into an afterimage shuttling back and forth among the golden long whip .
Zhang Ruochen dashed through the distance in only a second and appeared in front of Hong Tao .
Hong Tao's face changed color . He immediately tried to pull his long whip back and attack Zhang Ruochen again .
"Bang!"
Zhang Ruochen smashed Hong Tao on the neck with the scabbard in his hand .
Hong Tao stumbled and fell off the Coliseum .
Hong Tao somersaulted at the moment he fell off . So unlike the six warriors before him who fell off with a great discomfiture, he landed on the ground stably with both feet .
Standing under the stage, Hong Tao stared at Zhang Ruochen deeply and said, "I lost . "
Zhang Ruochen's movement just now was too fast . He was doomed to lose even if they fight again .
Another movement!
"With Hong Tao's cultivation, he couldn't even block Zhang Ruochen's one movement! How terrifying!"
Xue Bingsheng waved his folding fan slightly and smiled evilly . "Quite interesting!"
"Let me stop your winning streak in Round Eight . " Xue Bingsheng turned into a white shadow and leaped onto the Coliseum lightly as a leaf .
"Xue Bingsheng!" shouted Zhang Ruochen .
Zhang Ruochen had seen the battle between Xue Bingsheng and Nie Heng previously . At that time, Xue Bingsheng killed Nie Heng with only one movement .
He was very fast, and indeed a strong opponent .
Xue Bingsheng gave a wee smile and said, "Among the geniuses I've seen in my life, you are the most talented other than the Seventh Prince . "Only two months have passed since the Year-end Assessment, but you have broken two stages and reached the Final State of the Yellow Realm . I admire you . I do . "
Zhang Ruochen asked, "Are you from the Minister's Mansion?"
"Exactly . " said Xue Bingsheng .
"Are you confident in defeating me?" asked Zhang Ruochen .
Xue Bingsheng laughed and said, "Your biggest advantage is the Advanced Stage of Sword Following the Mind and your biggest disadvantage is the lack of Genuine Qi . I assume that you have just broken through the Final State, right?"
Zhang Ruochen did not respond .
Xue Bingsheng continued . "You are fast, but I'm not slow . You can defeat others with your speed, but it won't work on me . And in terms of power, I'm afraid I still outweigh you with my cultivation at the Completion of the Yellow Realm . "
"Really?" said Zhang Ruochen .
Xue Bingsheng nodded and said, "It's time to take your sword out!"
"I will take my sword out if I think you are powerful enough," said Zhang Ruochen .
"You should be careful then! My Iron Bone Fan is a Third-class Genuine Martial Arm . There were altogether nine warriors at the Completion of the Yellow Realm died because of it . "
Xue Bingsheng closed his eyes, and the folding fan suddenly spread . There was a three-inch sharp blade came out of each leaf .
"Swish!"
Xue Bingsheng was extremely fast . He dashed in front of Zhang Ruochen in just a second, like a white ghost .
He had been practicing a movement at the Superior Class of the Human Stage, namely "Eight Steps in the Air" . Each step he made was ten feet long .
He made eight steps, and eight afterimages appeared on the stage .
It looked like eight Xue Bingsheng were attacking Zhang Ruochen at the same time .
Zhang Ruochen stayed still, like a divine tree which rooted there, and kept wielding the sword scabbard in his hand .
Every time their weapons collided, there was a sharp noise, and sparks flew off in all directions .
"Bang Bang!"
Just in a second, Zhang Ruochen and Xue Bingsheng had fought over 20 movements . It looked like a shadow fighting on the Coliseum . Warriors of the lower cultivation could not even figure out how they made their moves, only shadows of shadows were seen .
Standing on the highest bleacher, Liu Chengfeng stared at the Coliseum and sneered . He said, "Even Xue Bingsheng went to a duel with him . It's really hard to predict the result!"
"Good day, Master Liu!" Han Fu knelt to Liu Chengfeng with the utmost respect .
Han Fu was very tall, about 260 or 270 cm . His one fist was much bigger than an ordinary person's head . There were leopard spots all over him .
He was not a purebred human, rather, he came from Leopard-Human clan and had the blood of the savage beast, Fire Lion-leopard .
In Kunlun's Field, there were many half-humans developing into an independent clan . For example, the strong Dragon-Human clan, Elephant-Human clan, and Ape-Human clan; the beautiful Fox-Human clan and Fish-Human clan .
The status of these half-human clans, however, was very low . Many of them were enslaved .
Han Fu was a half-human slave and since he had a record of a nine-game winning streak in the Yellow level Colosseum, Liu Chengfeng bought him with a high price .
Liu Chengfeng said, "Stand up . Did you see the boy on the Coliseum?"
Han Fu stood up and stared at Zhang Ruochen . Then he said, "He is powerful!"
Liu Chengfeng said, "Of course he is . So, if Xue Bingsheng loses to him, you should go and kill him in the next round . "
"I will never let you down . I will kill him even if it means perishing together . " said Han Fu with determination .
Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Xue Bingsheng has tested his real power . Take a look at them . It will help you to the next round . "
Han Fu nodded .
"Xue Bingsheng is so powerful! I'm really worried about my brother!" The Ninth Commandery Princess was very concerned .
Surely, Xue Bingsheng didn't dare to kill Zhang Ruochen, but who could make sure no accident would happen?
Xue Bingsheng was nothing like other warriors in the Completion . He was a really powerful warrior who suppressed Zhang Ruochen in every field . It was almost impossible for Zhang Ruochen to win .
All of the warriors in the Yellow Fighting Palace was very nervous now . They all wanted to know whether Zhang Ruochen could defeat Xue Bingsheng or not .
Could he achieve an eight-game winning streak?
"This is it!"
Zhang Ruochen's look turned sharp . He stabbed with his sword scabbard and cried, "Sacred Breaking Plum Sword!"
The speed was three times faster than before, making an unusual scene . The Sword Breath turned into the white flash, piercing through the void space and coming directly for Xue Bingsheng's glabella .
Xue Bingsheng changed color and stepped back immediately .
But it was too late!
"Boom!"
The tip of the sword scabbard dashed onto Xue Bingsheng's glabella directly .
Xue Bingsheng felt dizzy and fell on the ground . He fainted .
It was lucky for him that it was just the scabbard . If it were the sword point, his glabella would have been transpierced .
An old servant from the Minister's Mansion quickly rushed towards the Coliseum and bowed to Zhang Ruochen . He said, "Thank you for mercy!"
After saying that, he carried the fainted Xue Bingsheng off the Coliseum and quickly left the Yellow Fighting Palace .
An eight-game winning streak!
The whole Yellow Fighting Palace was seething! It was very extraordinary for a young man at the age of 16 to achieve an eight-game winning streak .
Even Liu Chengfeng, the Warrior of Yellow Board, was not so powerful when he was 16 .
"My ninth brother is so powerful! If our father-king knows that, he will again fete the officials to share his happiness . " The Ninth Commandery Princess let out a long sigh of relief . Her hanging heart finally went back to where it should be .
She found that, however, Zhang Ruochen didn't walk off the stage . Did he want a Round Nine?
In this moment, the stalwart Han Fu came onto the Coliseum step by step .
Completely covered in metal armor, he held a 600 kg battleax in his hand . His metal armor was not simply overlapped onto the body but inlaid in his flesh and bones . It became one with his body .
"No! It's Han Fu! No!" The Ninth Commandery Princess turned pale and shouted to Zhang Ruochen . "My ninth brother, please give in! Han Fu is a martial-addict! No one can survive him!"
Shan Xiangling's color also changed . She said, "Han Fu is Liu Chengfeng's slave . He will definitely kill you on the Coliseum . The ninth prince, please give in . There is absolutely no need to put up a desperate fight with a bloodthirsty lunatic . "
Han Fu gave a loud laugh . "Did you hear them, boy? The two women over there ask you to give in . If you don't, my battleax will cut you into two pieces . "
Zhang Ruochen looked up to the highest bleacher and happened to see Liu Chengfeng up there .
Liu Chengfeng was also staring at Zhang Ruochen . He sneered and said in a clear voice, "If you fear death, you should better give up . Once you die on the Coliseum, I might find it hard to explain to the Commandery Prince . "
Zhang Ruochen said, "Really? But we need to fight to find out who will die and who will live!"
"You just don't stop, do you? Very well . Han Fu, show him your real power . Don't let him look down on you!" said Liu Chengfeng in a somber tone .
