Martial Hero Rebirth
Chapter 445: I'm usually the one who makes the challengeSnorting, Sanbao turned to the fairy, who had just descended to the ground with a quiet flutter of fabric, and introduced himself:
“Madam Huang, Song Sanbao of the Song family is pleased to meet you!”
“Xi Yun, Heir of Emperor Xi, is pleased to meet you, Lady Huang!”
“Ni Shaotian Clan Ni is pleased to meet you.”
“Madam Huang, let me introduce myself: I am the Chu Yang of the Chu Clan.”
“I am Yan Yun.”
Itin only nodded slightly.
Feeling his heart tighten, Lin Yi took a step towards her, hugged his fist with his palm, and said:
“Lin Yi... from Huashan... nice to meet you, Mrs. Huang.”
Itin smiled at him and answered:“Do you think I forgot you, Deadly Heavenly Sword God?”
“Deadly Heavenly Sword God?..” repeated Sanbao.
None of them had ever heard this nickname before, but "Sword God"? How could they call him that??
In Kyushu, a nickname never exceeded a rank. If an expert reached the level of a king, and wielded a sword better than everyone else, then he could be called the Sword King. For the same reason, there was only one Sword Emperor, and one Saber Emperor.
Above the Emperors stood only the wanderers of the void - the true gods of this world!
How could this youth, who had not even reached the peak of an impeccable rank, be called a god? Was he also a descendant of God??
Also “Deadly”? Where and on whom did he manage to receive this title, if the last war was generations older than any of them?
Everyone looked at Lin Yi doubtfully. Its roots have become even more mysterious.
However, he himself, not paying attention, smiled and said:
“I heard that Madam Huang is the first beauty in the world, but now I see with my own eyes that this is true. I admire your–”
“Don’t, Lin,” Yiting suddenly interrupted him. “I know my beauty, and I know that it was not enough for your admiration.”
The others opened their eyes in amazement, trying to understand what was happening - was it modesty? Or did they know each other personally? What actually happened?
Only Lin Yi understood everything perfectly. There was an old wound in that tone, inflicted by himself..
Unable to find words, he lowered his head in embarrassment..
The edges of Itin’s lips lifted. She was a little relieved that he felt guilty. Maybe he really loved her...
Meanwhile, the glances at Lin Yi became increasingly angrier. Arrogance is one thing, Madam Huang’s attitude towards him is another! They didn’t understand how he earned her favor, but to them, the six greatest geniuses, she just nodded and that’s it.!
What audacity!
No other girl dared to treat them with such disdain! Whatever it was, Lin Yi had to pay for it!
Only Yan Yun continued to stand and smile at Lin Yi without any hint of envy. All he wanted was to fight a worthy opponent. His elders wanted to get Huang Yiting; he himself only strived for perfection.
Because Kyushu is great, and in all its colossal expanses he could not find a single worthy opponent.
Seeing Lin Yi for the first time - or rather, feeling his will of the sword for the first time - he realized that he had not come in vain. How could such a perfect opponent suddenly appear in this world? The man who united three wills! Had heaven itself sent him, who had long since despaired, a real rival??
Just the thought of it made him fidget in place.!
As for arrogance... this man has achieved more than any of them. He had every right to it!
Lin Yi did not pay attention to the simmering anger of the others. You can't win without being afraid to show your sword. He didn't intend to give Itin to anyone, so what's the point in hiding his intentions??
Even if they consider him the most arrogant person on earth, he will win Itin in this battle!
The only thing that bothered him was... would she accept him? He already left her once for someone else. And he had no intention of leaving Yuluo, even if he had to lose Yiting. After all, she is also his choice.
While he was lost in thought, the White Pagoda Fairy turned to the others and said:
“You are the best talents of Kyushu, each of you is the future ruler of this world. But I'm only one, and there are ten of you. Therefore, you will have to fight and find the most outstanding! After all, isn't it for the sake of martial arts that we were all born into this world??”
“I will fight for you, Lady Itin!” the thick-cheeked Sanbao proudly declared.
The others, not counting the Young Sword God, made similar remarks..
“In that case...” Yiting said, turning to the eunuch, “Mr. Liu, please begin.”
“Of course, Your Highness!” he bowed from the waist and waved his hand.
The entire square suddenly shook, and a shimmering turquoise veil appeared along its edges. As if the arena was covered by a huge bowl.
“I ask all outsiders to step back.!”
Before people had time to obey, a wave of energy passed through the arena, pushing everyone extra out of it..
All that remained inside were the ten people who had climbed to the top of the pagoda, and the eunuch with the rest of the organizers..
Even Itin left the arena and returned to the top of the pagoda, from the edge of which she watched the others.
“The conditions for victory are extremely simple,” the eunuch shouted so that the audience could hear. “One person rises to the arena, the rest challenge him. The last one left in the arena will fight against Lady Huang, and if he wins, he will become the successor of Empress Wu!”
The eunuch turned to the participants and asked:
“Who will rise first?”
Everyone reluctantly looked at each other - the last fool understood that the one who stood up first would be in the most unfortunate position, because he would have to defeat nine! So the advantage remained with the one who challenged last.
But Lin Yi immediately stepped forward and said:
“I'll be the first.”
Sanbao grinned arrogantly, Yan Yun smiled. The eunuch decided to clarify:
“Everyone will only have one chance. If you lose, you won't get back into the ring..”
“I know. But how can you miss the chance to compete with Kyushu's best talents??”
There was another goal that only he could understand. Experience points!
While the others were looking for a way to come out last, he was simply eager to take all the experience he could!
Even though he could no longer improve martial arts with its help, internal strength required such tons of experience that every grain brought undeniable benefit.
And he was already far behind. Huang Yiting, whom he had previously surpassed by a whole rank, was already standing half a step away from the rank of marquis, while he was only a third of the way to the peak.
How can he live if his own woman surpasses him by a whole rank? Which one is the protector of the family??
Before this, he was not in too much of a hurry, but now he felt the burning even stronger.
The lands of Kyushu are huge. How much experience will their best talents bring??
Moreover, each of them also surpassed him. In the five years that he spent on the path and making the sword, everyone had come far ahead.
“Okay,” the eunuch smiled, admiring such courage..
He already internally wanted Lin Yi to win. Who, if not this daredevil, was worthy of the hand of their new Empress?
While the others were looking around and waiting for someone else to make a decision for them, he took it and did it!
Only a true hero was worthy to lead the Great Tang Empire!
“Hmph, show off now, and we’ll see how you stumble later!” Sanbao snorted..
The eunuch shook his head. He had an extremely bad impression of this young man. With his words and impulsiveness, he brought disgrace to the entire Song family..
But without expressing his thoughts in any way, the eunuch asked:
“Who wants to challenge first??”
