Chapter 7

After blocking Xing Han’s sword slash, Xiao Tian swiftly twisted his wrist with agility. The sword, previously used to block Xing Han’s attack, became a deadly strike aimed at Xing Han’s abdomen.

Bang—

“Ugh...” Xing Han was thrown several meters away. After stabilizing himself, he suddenly spat out blood from his mouth.

Xing Han glared at Xiao Tian viciously while wiping his blood. “Kid, I underestimated you. I didn't expect you to have such strength. Now, you won’t have another chance to defend yourself!” Xing Han released his true aura. Now, everyone could feel Xing Han's power.

“Damn, this kid Xing Han has a massive amount of inner energy, he's nearly a fourth-class warrior. What do we do? Tian is surely going to be defeated by him!”

“Don’t panic, look at Tian’s face. Even though that guy revealed his power, Tian is still very calm. It means Tian has a way to deal with him.”

Many people doubted Xiao Tian, while some remained optimistic about the boy.

“Kid, now it’s time to end this fight!” Xing Han shouted, igniting a burning fighting spirit within himself. He raised his sword high, channeling all the energy in his body. Suddenly, a tremendous energy burst from Xing Han’s sword, making the wind around the arena chaotic. His sword gleamed, indicating the power ready to destroy the opponent before him. “DANCE OF A HUNDRED SWORDS!” Xing Han yelled, initiating his ultimate attack.

In an instant, hundreds of sword shadows appeared around him, moving rapidly and unstoppably. Seeing Xing Han using the sword skill of the Boundless Valley, Gan Feng smiled proudly.

“That boy named Tian is going to die. This is the third most powerful sword technique below the level of a heavenly king warrior. Even an earth king warrior would struggle against this sword technique. Xing Han is very talented; even though he's only 15 years can already perform this technique.” Gan Feng grinned evilly.

****

Seeing Xing Han’s potent attack, Xiao Tian was slightly intrigued by his sword technique. His eyes glowed slightly; if anyone could see deep into Xiao Tian’s eyes, they would be astonished, for there seemed to be thousands of stars shining within them.

Xing Han attacked fiercely, but Xiao Tian still hadn’t drawn his sword. He could dodge Xing Han’s attacks with ease.

Xiao Tian even offered advice as Xing Han attacked. “Your sword skill is strong, but you lack power when using it. You also aren’t smooth when changing the rhythm of your attacks, even though the sword technique you mentioned could become deadly. “Bastard, if you can use a sword technique, do it! Don’t just criticize me!” Xing Han was furious; his opponent could always predict the direction of his attacks easily. He was extremely angry. At this moment, Xing Han received a lecture from an opponent far younger than himself. Xing Han’s lungs felt like they would explode from his rage.

Seeing Xing Han’s increasingly substantial but unsubstantial attacks, Xiao Tian lost interest in continuing the fight.

Xiao Tian, who had only been dodging, now began to attack. He had lost interest in fighting. The boy played with his sword still in its sheath, twisting it and then slashing at Xing Han’s wrist.

Slash—

“Ahh…” Xing Han screamed in pain, his sword flying out of his hand and landing far away. Xiao Tian appeared in front of Xing Han with an icy face; his kindness and calmness had vanished, replaced by a gaze that contained a hint of murderous intent.

Splash—

Splash—

Xiao Tian slapped Xing Han’s face violently. He continuously delivered several slaps, and finally, Xiao Tian kicked Xing Han’s waist hard.

Bang—

Crack—

Xing Han wasn’t just thrown far; his ribs were shattered.

He vomited blood continuously. All his strength disappeared; he no longer could stand.

Xiao Tian walked slowly toward Xing Han; his cold expression terrified the man.

“What is this?” People stared at each other in disbelief. Not only Gan Feng, the patriarch of the Boundless Valley, but even the people of the Supreme Sword Sect didn’t expect such an outcome.

People have now changed their views of Xiao Tian. Those who had always thought the boy had no talent and was very lazy about practicing martial arts found out he was not a lazy person. Xiao Tian said he was skilled but had not wanted to showcase himself until now.

Xing Han looked at Xiao Tian in horror. “Don’t come near me! Stay away from me!” Xing Han tried to stand but was utterly powerless.

Xing Han lay helplessly on the ground, his body full of wounds and blood. Xiao Tian, who had been walking casually, suddenly felt anger. In an instant, his body shook, and he appeared before Xing Han with incredible speed.

Baang—

Xiao Tian’s hard kick landed on Xing Han’s body, sending him flyback several metersng. Han’s ribs weren’t just broken; they shattered into pieces. Intense pain flooded his entire body, making Xing Han scream in agony.

After that, Xiao Tian didn’t stop. He ran again and arrived in front of Xing Han once more. Then he stepped on Xing Han’s chest.

“Stop!” Gan Feng stood and shouted. A fighting aura and a hint of murderous intent emanated from his body. However, Xiao Tian ignored him. Instead, he glared at Gan Feng with sharp eyes.

“Old man, why are you stopping me? What did I do wrong?” Seeing Xiao Tian’s gaze, Gan Feng felt he wasn’t looking at a 9-year-old boy. There was a strange feeling seeping into his body. He felt like a god of death was staring at him.

Gan Feng lowered his voice. “Young Tian. This is just a spar, why are you acting so ruthlessly?”

Xiao Tian smiled slightly with a cold face. “Old man, how can you call me ruthless? I want to secure my victory. Who knows, your student might still have a hidden card to face me because until now, I haven’t heard your student say the word 'surrender.'”

Hearing Xiao Tian’s words, everyone had the same thought.

“Patriarch Gan Feng, what Tian said is true. Xing Han hasn’t uttered the word 'surrender,' so Tian’s actions can’t be considered ruthless. He’s just securing his victory.” The elder beside Fa Wa spoke with an innocent face, making Gan Feng want to vomit blood.

Gan Feng’s face turned from blue to purple. He was thoroughly humiliated there. He came to offend the Supreme Sword Sect, who knew he would get the opposite result.

Xiao Tian’s foot was still on Xing Han’s chest, and now he realized how terrifying the boy was.

Xing Han wanted to say 'surrender.' But just as his lips moved, Xiao Tian kicked him again very hard. This time, he not only used his physical strength but also channeled some inner energy.

Boom—

Xing Han was thrown until he hit the martial arts arena wall. He wasn’t just severely injured; now he was unconscious.

Gan Feng used his body skills to save Xing Han quickly. He quickly put several pills into Xing Han’s mouth and immediately channeled his inner energy.

However, although he channeled his inner energy, Xing Han wouldn’t regain consciousness quickly. He would sleep for a few days and need six months to recover.

Gan Feng glared at Xiao Tian. “Boy, I will remember this incident,” Gan Feng showed his ferocious face.

Xiao Tian, although still a child, did not feel intimidated by Gan Feng’s fierce look. He snorted coldly. “Old man, you indeed should remember this! Your actions as a patriarch are not worthy of imitation. Your arrival here was uninvited. You only wanted to humiliate us and show off your student’s strength. However, your student’s strength is not worth showing off. So I suggest, in the future, if you want to do something, try thinking first!”
