Douluo Dalu : White God 34 Let The Tournament, Begin! 2

"Spirit Skill - [Moon Devil Blademail]"

Xiao Chen's opponent's body grew blademail-like scales, his muscles bulged a bit, a whip-like tail also apparent on his bottom, and a pair of horns also grew on his head.

'Gasp!'

The opponent suddenly threw away his longsword. He then pushed off the ground like Xiao Chen did before and started to twist his body. He was surprisingly nimble.

'Impossible! How can he move like that?'

But the important thing was that he moved that way. And he was aiming right for Xiao Chen with his hand stretched out.

'It'll be difficult if he manages to catch even the corner of my clothes. His strength is probably overwhelming compared to mine.'

But Xiao Chen was already in full motion. Even with high agility, once the center of your body is completely in motion, you can't turn your body.

'I could not dodge his hand.'

Then there was only one choice. The best form of defense is an offense.

'The enemy was empty-handed. While I had swords.'

Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and clenched his swords harder.

'I will win!'

Instead of stopping his momentum, Xiao Chen pushed it even further. He flung his body forward as if he was throwing it into his opponent's hand and slashed upward with his sword. At the same time, he twisted his body and swung his other sword horizontally.

*Fwiiiish*

'I hit him!'

Xiao Chen landed a hit and his sword dance started.

But the sword dance did not continue for a long time. He only manages to hit his opponent three times.

And the damage was terrible. His opponent was barely able to feel it as if he was wearing a thick armor. On the other hand, that one decision put Xiao Chen in danger.

'Oh no!'

It was a shrewd plan from his opponent.

His opponent had completely given up on defense. He took the attack of Xiao Chen swords with his whole body as he continued to charge at him. It was the give some flesh to get the bone strategy.

And the direction was quite exquisite. It was as if his opponent was already antic.i.p.ated the direction Xiao Chen would move after he pus.h.i.+ng forward.

And his opponent's was just too fast. His agility seemed to be on par with Xiao Chen if not more, and that was without him activating his martial spirit. Else his agility will be even lower.

'Oh no, how do I dodge this?'

It was a terrible situation. Xiao Chen still tried to do whatever he could to dodge it. He kicked the ground and tried to change directions.

But his opponent was a half step faster. He stretched out his arms to block his escape and ran forward.

In the end, Xiao Chen's forearm ended up getting caught.

It was an unbelievable movement. It made it feel like as if his slow movement until now was a trick.

His opponent's overpowering arm strength clenched so tightly on Xiao Chen's forearm that it felt like it would break any moment. His opponent then pushed him down with his whole body with some of his scales pierces Xiao Chen's skin.

"Ugh."

Flop!

Xiao Chen lost his balance and fell to the ground.

His opponent fell with him as well. It was like he was pretending to be a hunting dog and fell down on top of him.

Xiao Chen was nervous, he couldn't do anything since he could not move after being caught. He tried to flail around, but he could not escape.

"Disappointing. Is that all you got?" His opponent opened his mouth to express his disappointment.

'Unbelievable! H-How am I supposed to defeat him?' despair started to bud in his heart, Xiao Chen bit his lips.

His opponent improved during their fight. In the beginning, his opponent seemed to only have the agility and speed lower than him. Since he was really strong, his agility was low.

But suddenly, it felt like his agility exploded. His opponent's movement was even faster than him.

There was only one thing he could think of. Since it looked like his opponent was going to lose, he drastically increased his abilities.

"This is cheating!"

But it was useless to complain. There was no rule that forbids you from deceiving your opponent. All the rules were made by the Empire and they just had to follow them.

His opponent didn't even pretend to hear his complaint.

"I warned you. If you disappoint me, you will be punished. You have enjoyed the carrot, it's time for the stick."

The opponent put his hand on Xia Chen's head.

"Spirit Skill - [Full Moon Nightmare]"

Xiao Chen flailed around to get away, but his opponent didn't budge at all.

"Aaaaarghhh!" Xiao Chen let out a pained roar, he felt like his head was going to break.

'What is he doing to my head? Hurts! It hurts! I am starting to get light headed.'

But Xiao Chen could still clearly hear his opponent's voice.

"We will meet again. If you disappoint me again next time, I will give you a worse punishment than this..."

His opponent's voice started to become faint near the end until Xiao Chen could no longer hear what he was saying.

...

"Master, it is done."

A black robed figure could be seen kneeling toward a Golden haired Man.

"Good, continue your mission. Keep your eyes on those wolves, don't let them sniff our presence yet, else they will turn their tail and escape. Do you understand, Ah Liu?" The golden-haired man nodded and said faintly, regardless, the black-robed Man heard him clearly and gone just like that leaving a dark blue light in his place before it too faded into thin air.

'Xiao Chen ah Xiao Chen... I gave you the ultimate way to reach the pinnacle of existence, yet you're too lazy to walk the path. Don't blame to give you a bit 'motivation' to tread the path seriously.' A dangerous and ruthless glint showed inside his eyes.

'I a.s.sume that Asya failed her mission, whatever. For now, let me enjoy the show...'

...

"Eh? Xiao Chen? I know him."

Two beautiful young women, each have their own unique grace, talked to an old woman not far from where Xiao Chen's abode was. One of them wearing a white robe while the other wearing a blue cheongsam.

It's been several days since they circling the Paotai town asking one place to another about the whereabouts of the one called Xiao Chen. As time goes, the two of them getting closer and now they act no different from a pair of sisters.

"Really? Please tell me, beautiful grandma, where is he?" One of the two beautiful young women spoke with happiness filling her, she took the old woman's hand and hold it excitedly.

'Finally, I can finish the mission given to me by Master.' She thought in her mind, a smile bloomed on her face.

"Aiya, you're too kind with your words. Come, come inside first, I've just made chicken soup, let's eat while it's hot." The old woman happily offered the two women to dine in her house. The one wearing blue cheongsam happily nodded.

"Thank you, beautiful grandma."

The white-robed woman chuckled at her friend's antics, her voice was soft and her laugh was like a heartwarming celestial song.

"That fella Xiao Chen already left to the Imperial Capital, don't know when he'll be back." After they dining with the old woman, she asked the old woman once again about her previous question.

"Aaah, What do I do? He's gone, I thought that I will finally meet him and finished my a.s.signment. But..." The blue cheongsam woman flopped her upper body on the dining table.

Really, Man proposes, and G.o.d disposes.

...

Xiao Chen woke up in shock. At the same time, He scrunched his face and put his hands on his head.

"Argh, my head!"
