Warrior’s Promise - Chapter 36

Chapter 36


As Lin Xiao stepped into the fighting ring, Su Mo smiled mockingly .
"Lin Xiao, you're quite powerful . You deserve my full effort," he said loudly with gleeful eyes .  
"Humph! Don't just assume you can beat me, even with all your effort!" Lin Xiao huffed coldly .
"Is that so?" Su Mo laughed and shouted, "Then I'll try even harder! Make your move, Lin Xiao . "
Huff!
Lin Xiao's face grew serious, and he stopped wasting time and activated all the Qi in his body . With great speed, his palms flew towards Su Mo .
Su Mo saw the palms rapidly approaching, and his eyes became cold .
"I'll make you pay for trying to kidnap Xi'er . "
He clenched his fists and swung them with an unstoppable force toward Lin Xiao .  
The force of Su Mo's punch was twice the force of the one that had just defeated Su Yu .
Even if Lin Xiao slightly stronger than Su Yu, he would still be seriously injured by this punch .
Crack!
"Ah!"
As expected, Lin Xiao was no match for him . His arm immediately snapped, and he was sent flying backward, screaming and spewing blood .
His crimson blood left a long trail in the fighting ring .
Lin Xiao crashed heavily below the ring and was hurt so badly that he could not get up for a long time .
The entire arena was dead silent .
Everyone looked at Su Mo in disbelief .
"The following matches will end when a competitor is about to lose . Anyone who purposefully injures their opponents will be heavily punished!"
Lin Sheng's words from before still lingered in their minds .
Now, Su Mo had seriously injured Lin Xiao . It seemed like a blatant disrespect to the city governor .
"Damn it, Lin Xiao, I didn't expect you to be so weak! You can't even take one punch!" Su Mo stepped forward in shock and said guiltily, "It's my fault . If I'd know you were so weak, I would've only used 10% of my force . "
"You . . . Ahem!"
Lin Xiao was furious . He was about to speak when he started coughing up blood again .
He obviously knew that Su Mo had wanted to injure him on purpose .
When he had sent his men to kill Su Mo, not a single hitman had returned alive, and he could not even find their corpses .
Su Mo must have known that Lin Xiao was behind this attack, and now he was getting his revenge .
Even though Lin Xiao knew this, he could not say it aloud .
Now, not only had Su Mo seriously injured him, but he had also embarrassed him .
He instantly felt rage building up in his heart, which made his injuries even worse .
"How dare you!" Lin Sheng suddenly roared from the north spectators stand . He smashed the arm of his chair in a fit of rage .
"Su Mo, how dare you act so ruthlessly . Do the words of the city governor mean nothing to you?" Lin Sheng asked, his face darkening .
Su Mo had not only ignored his words, but also injured his son . It enraged him to no end .


"I didn't injure him on purpose!" Su Mo explained calmly, "You saw that I considered Lin Xiao to be very powerful, so I wanted to fight him with all my effort . I didn't expect him to be so weak, so I injured him by accident . "

"You . . . you act so viciously, and then you dare to refute me?"
Lin Sheng was furious, and his eyes flashed with killing desire .
"City Governor Lin, please remain calm," said Su Hong apologetically . "My son only hurt your son by accident . Everyone here witnessed it . I hope you can be gracious . "
"Humph! That's easy for you to say . Your son wasn't injured!" Lin Sheng huffed coldly .  
"City Governor, your son's injuries are of utmost importance at the moment . At the end of the martial arts competition, I'll apologize personally to your son on my son's behalf . "
Su Hong's words skillfully saved face for Lin Sheng and gave him a way out .

Lin Sheng could not argue further, so he scoffed coldly and ordered someone to carry Lin Xiao out of the ring .
"Next, let the third round of matches begin!" announced Lin De . "There are seven competitors left . Four more will be eliminated to determine the top three in this martial arts competition .
Now, the seven of you will draw lots once again . Number one will fight with number two, three with four, five with six, and number seven can choose any competitor to fight . "
Lin De took out some bamboo sticks .
Su Mo and his competitors drew lots one by one .
Su Mo got number . 6 .
Afterward, Lin De yelled, "The third round begins now . No . 1 and No . 2, step into the ring . "
No . 1 was Lin Qiong . Her competitor was another Lin disciple .
"I give up . " The Lin disciple sighed dejectedly . He was hoping that he could fight against Su Mo and enter the top three .


Unfortunately, things did not go as planned . If he had encountered anyone else, he definitely would have fought them, even if he did not stand a chance .
However, since Lin Qiong and he were both disciples of the Mansion of the City Governor, they had already fought before outside of the competition . There was no need to fight again .
"No . 3 and No . 4, please step into the ring . "
No . 3 was Wei Rufeng, and No . 4 was exactly Su Hai from the Sus .
"Su Hai, you're no match for me!" Wei Rufeng said pretentiously as he glanced at Su Hai .
"Really? You can't win a fight just by talking!" Su Hai retorted .
"Humph! I'll show you just how much better than you I am," Wei Rufeng sneered . "You're worthy of my Roaring Flame Saber Style, which I learned in Scorching Sun Sect . " 
Su Hai frowned . He glanced at Wei Rufeng and said, "Then make your move!"
Wei Rufeng raised his right palm slightly, which immediately began to emit scalding Qi . His hand became as hot as a soldering iron and burned with light flames .
"A hand knife is enough to beat you!"
Wei Rufeng smiled proudly and flew into the sky .
"You're going down!"
Wei Rufeng swung his knife multiple times in midair . Countless knife shadows flew towards Su Hai .
Puff!
Scalding saber Qi pierced the air, causing space to contort .
Wei Rufeng's move was so powerful that it could instantly defeat even martial artists at the Peak Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm .
"You're so ignorant!"


Su Hai was enraged by Wei Rufeng's belittling attitude . He punched repeatedly with his explosive fists, shattering all of the Sword Qi .
The ring sounded with continuous explosions . Qi was flowing everywhere .
"Roaring Flame in the Sky!"
Wei Rufeng used this chance to approach Su Hai and swing towards him . Before his hand knife had even touched him, Su Hai felt a scalding pain .
"He's so powerful!"
Wei Rufeng's power put a lot of pressure on Su Hai .
"Thunder Fist!"
Su Hai was using 120% of his combat force to meet Wei Rufeng's attack .
Bang!
As Su Hai's fist met the knife, he was forced back many steps .
"You're going down!" Wei Rufeng yelled . He jumped up, making three continuous slashes with his knife .
"Roaring Flame Triple Cut!"
Three flashes of sword radiance tore through the air and surrounded Su Hai's head .
Su Hai's pupils constricted . He felt an extreme sense of fear spread over his body .
"Infinite Thunder Force!"
Su Hai used his strongest move . His fists moved like lightning and gave off thunderous sounds .
