Complete Martial Arts Attributes

Chapter 348 This Fellow Is Infuriating!

The situation in the arenas changed every minute.

Wang Teng’s match was filled with joy and… fun. But in some areas, there was blood and ruthlessness.

These images were all magnified and displayed to the audience through the big screens in the middle of the venue.

At this moment, in one of the arenas, an unpopular young martial warrior who didn’t come from a famous institute was fighting ferociously.

His opponent was a student from Ning City University.

Ning City University was situated in the south, and it was one of the top 20 universities in the country.

This student had experienced actual combat before. He wasn’t a young and delicate newbie.

Anyway, newbies wouldn’t participate in this competition.

It was an intense struggle.

“You might think that this is just a battle between Ding Rong and Cai Xingping, but it’s actually not. It’s also a match between self-taught martial warriors and university-groomed martial warriors. Many people are watching this match. All along, self-taught martial warriors and university-groomed martial warriors had always been in a competitive relationship.

“Some people say that university-groomed martial warriors take up too many resources. This is unfair for self-taught martial warriors. Others say that this is reality. Ability is the voice of martial warriors. In terms of contribution, university-groomed martial warriors contribute more even though they have more resources. They deserve it. All in all, this is an ongoing debate with no conclusion yet.”

The audience was lost.

Martial warriors!

Contribution?

They didn’t understand any of it. They only knew that martial warriors enjoyed high status and excellent benefits. But they never wondered why they were given the privileges. From the looks of it now, there were many things unknown to the public.

“Alright, going back to the competition, we can see that Ding Rong and Cai Xingping are on par….”

Following the commentator’s words, the battle between these two young lads entered the final stage.

Ding Rong was holding a battle blade. His every single strike was sharp and vicious. Cai Xingping was suppressed by him due to his crafty moves.

Cai Xingping’s weapon was a spear, and he used it to knock Ding Rong’s blade away. The spear was like a viper flying out of its hole. It stabbed at Ding Rong’s heart. Ding Rong tilted his body and slashed his blade at Cai Xingping’s throat before he had the time to retract his spear.

Cai Xingping felt goosebumps on his head. He took a step back instinctively.

Slash!

The blade glow slit the air inches away from his neck. The sharp blade aura cut his skin, and blood started seeping out of his throat.

Feeling the injury on his neck, Cai Xingping broke out in a cold sweat.

If he were a little slower, he would have been beheaded!

Ding Rong didn’t relent at all and charged towards him.

Their weapons kept colliding, letting out

arks everywhere. Cai Xingping was already exhausted. He kept raising his spear to block his opponent’s attack. His hands were numb from the vibrations, and his skin started to crack.

After some time, Cai Xingping finally found a chance. He forced Ding Rong back and threw his spear out.

Ding Rong wasn’t just harsh on others. He was brutal to himself too.

Facing Cai Xingping’s attack, he just tilted his body and allowed the spear to penetrate his chest. One of his rib bones broke.

Cai Xingping wanted to pull his spear back, but he suddenly realized that Ding Rong had nipped it under his armpit.

Ding Rong smiled hideously, flinging his battle sword out.

Slash!

Cai Xingping wanted to retract his hand and abandon his spear, but it was too late. The next moment, fresh blood spurted in the air, along with a scream of agony.

Through the big screen, the audience was able to see this scene clearly.

Ding Rong had chopped Cai Xingping’s arm! His blood sprayed at least three meters away. It was a gruesome scene. “Admit defeat!”

A leader from Ning City University lashed out from the second floor of the audience seat.

However, Ding Rong didn’t care. He kicked Cai Xingping’s chest even though he was screaming in pain. Cai Xingping flew off the arena.

The judge hurriedly announced Ding Rong’s win.

The medical personnel waiting at the side rushed over. If he was saved in time, he might be able to keep his arm. On the second floor, the leaders of Ning City University had grim expressions. They snorted, but they didn’t say anything.

Everyone was flabbergasted. How did this happen?

Shouldn’t the National Number One Martial Arts Competition be a sports competition?

When did it become so violent and bloody? Many people didn’t understand the reason, giving rise to a huge commotion.

The commentator’s voice finally rang out, “This is how a martial warrior’s fight should be.

“Martial warriors walk the formidable path. A martial arts competition isn’t a performance; it’s a real battle. Why does it have to be like this? Because martial warriors have to face many dangers. Once they walk out of this competition, they will need to face the brutality of life…”

The audience was confused by the commentator’s words. Some were puzzled, while others didn’t understand at all. However, no matter what, the competition had to continue.

The following competitions were even more intense.

The audience saw many tragedies play out on the big screens.

The people on the screen were covered in blood or had broken arms and legs. The spectators’ faces turned pale with fright, and an uproar shook the skies above the Dragon’s Den.

This was just a competition. Why did they have to resort to such cruelty?

When did this turn into a life-or-death struggle!

Everyone was dumbstruck. The impact of these images had rendered them speechless.

In the past, they had a limited understanding of martial warriors. Their only source of information about martial warriors was the internet. However, many gory scenes or even news about martial warriors were restricted content. Ordinary civilians didn’t have access to them.

But the restriction had been loosened now. For instance, ordinary people were allowed to view the National Number One Martial Arts Competition so that they could personally view these ghastly scenes.

This was to let everyone know what a martial warrior represented!

“This, this is so scary!” Tian Xiaoxiao’s face turned white as she muttered to herself.

“What else? This is the real martial warriors’ world,” said Xu Wantong.

Tian Xiaoxiao looked at Xu Wantong silently. Then, she glanced at Lin Chuhan and was surprised. “Chuhan, don’t you find it scary?”

“My father was a martial warrior,” Lin Chuhan gritted her teeth and replied.

Tian Xiaoxiao and Xu Wantong were stunned. They thought that Lin Chuhan came from an ordinary family. They had no idea that her father was a martial warrior.

Why didn’t she mention it in the past?

They exchanged glances with each other before observing Lin Chuhan’s expression. In the end, they didn’t probe further.

At the same time, on the other side of the audience stand, Wang Shengguo and Li Xiumei went silent. They knew that the martial warriors’ world was full of dangers, but they had a deeper understanding of it after the competition today.

Now they understood the grim reality behind the glamorous front of martial warriors.

Blood, cruelty, death…

These harsh words flashed past their minds. When they looked at Wang Teng’s figure again, their gazes were filled with worry.

Wang Teng was used to these scenes, though. He had experienced worse battles. Compared to them, the brutality in the arenas was nothing.

Time passed slowly. Wang Teng returned to the resting area again after his match ended. He sat down in a corner and secretly collected all the attribute bubbles scattered around Dragon’s Den.

Fire Force*10

Water Force*5 Enlightenment*12

Metal Sword Presence*10

Huh? Metal sword presence? Wang Teng wondered to himself. This attribute bubble had caught his attention.

It was another sword presence attribute!

Wang Teng already possessed a metal sword presence, but it was only at the seventh level. He was still a distance away from enlightening his metal sword conscious.

He never expected to receive this sword presence in the competition.

After collecting the attribute bubble, he felt that he had a deeper understanding of his metal sword presence.

Are there any more?

Wang Teng retraced the path of his spiritual power and found the arena where the metal sword presence came from. He looked in that direction and saw a familiar figure battling in the arena.

This person was none other than his Senior Sister Wan Baiqiu!

During this trip, Wang Teng had gotten familiar with Han Zhu, Wan Baiqiu, and the other seniors. Hence, when he saw her match, he stopped to take a look.

The metal sword presence came from Wan Baiqiu’s opponent. Wang Teng had some impression of this young man. He was the young master of the Qianyuan Sect, Zhao Yuanwu.

Holding a longsword in one hand, he exuded a fierce metal sword presence. Rays of golden sword aura intertwined in the air and draped over Wan Baiqiu like a huge net, leaving bloody wounds on her body.

Wang Teng couldn’t help but frown.

Wan Baiqiu wasn’t Zhao Yuanwu’s match. However, his senior sister was a proud lady. Even at this stage, she refused to admit defeat.

“Zhao Yuanwu is already at the 5-star soldier level. Senior Sister has no chance of winning.” Wang Teng sighed and shook his head. He observed Zhao Yuanwu’s cultivation level using his Spiritual Sight.

In the arena, Zhao Yuanwu remained expressionless and said calmly, “Admit defeat.”

Wan Baiqiu didn’t reply. Instead, the long whip in her hand flashed like water waves as she twirled it around. It formed the shape of a python when she lashed it out at Zhao Yuanwu.

“Hmph, you overestimate yourself.” Zhao Yuanwu sneered, bright golden rays congregating at the tip of his sword.

He slashed his sword out.

The python was beheaded instantly. Wan Baiqiu’s long whip got chopped into two from his attack.

Zhao Yuanwu continued his victorious pursuit and executed another attack.

Wan Baiqiu was startled. She evaded hastily, but it was too late. She had no choice but to set up a defensive wall with her Force.

The attack hit the barrier like a speeding truck. Blood dripped down from her lips, and she flew backward by the momentum.

Bang!

Wan Baiqiu slammed violently on the ground. She vomited another mouthful of blood.

Her aura was weak, and she couldn’t get up. Despair flashed past her eyes. She opened her mouth and wanted to admit defeat. “I admit _11

Boom!

Unexpectedly, someone kicked her on her back.

Splurt!

Wan Baiqiu leaned back. Her face turned pale, and blood flowed out of her mouth uncontrollably.

“Zhao Yuanwu!” Han Zhu and the others were watching the match too. When they saw this scene, they were infuriated. They glared at Zhao Yuanwu like daggers. “She hasn’t admitted defeat yet.” Zhao Yuanwu smiled as he looked at them. He raised his leg and stepped on Wan Baiqiu again.

Boom!

Wan Baiqiu vomited blood and fainted.

“Useless.” Zhao Yuanwu smiled in contempt. He didn’t have any tender feelings for the fairer sex. Instead, he wiped his shoes on Wan Baiqiu’s back and said coldly, “You should have admitted defeat sooner with this little ability of yours. Why did you waste my time? You were just asking for a beating.”

“Bastard!” His words ignited flames of anger in the other students’ hearts.

Wang Teng also stood up gradually and squinted. There was a vicious glint in his eyes. This fellow is infuriating!
