Martial Arts, the Little Master of the Ancient Tomb, Becomes Stronger When You Drink

14: Chapter 14: Adding the Bet, The Nine Yin ManualAs Su Xuan stepped onto the arena, the scene erupted in an uproar.

”Wait, is this a mistake? Why is this Little Kid going up on the arena?”

”Is he even weaned yet? A child is going to compete with us, The Seven Quanzhen Masters? Who does he think he’s looking down on?”

”Exactly, with that delicate, tender skin... don’t let him start crying later...”

”...”

Hearing the clamorous discussions, Lin Chaoying felt a surge of anger rising within her. Just as she was about to erupt in fury,

Little Dragon Girl gently tugged at her jade-like hand,

”Grandmaster, Junior Martial Uncle said we shouldn’t bother with these insignificant people~”

Only then did Lin Chaoying relent.

Unconsciously, even Lin Chaoying herself hadn’t noticed that Su Xuan had already become her reverse scale.

A dragon has its reverse scale; touch it, and you die.

To speak of her little Disciple like that in front of her! If not for her little Disciple’s instructions, she would have already taken action!

That would teach these Stinky Daoist Priests the consequences of gossiping.

The only woman among The Seven Quanzhen Masters stood up, cupped her hands in a salute, and said,

”Senior Brothers, it’s just a child. Let this Junior Sister take the field!”

”Agreed.”

Sun Buer stepped forward and flew towards the arena.

Having Sun Buer take the field was something they had agreed upon yesterday.

Having lived for decades, asking them to fight a child...

Even if they won, it wouldn’t be honorable. In the end, they made a decision.

They would send Sun Buer, the only female Daoist among The Seven Quanzhen Masters, onto the field.

A woman fighting a child was, at the very least, better than a grown man bullying a kid.

The moment Sun Buer landed on the arena, she was captivated by Su Xuan’s adorable little face.

”Little Young Hero~ How old are you this year?”

Wang Chongyang had instructed her not to let Su Xuan lose too quickly.

Looking at Su Xuan’s chubby little cheeks, Sun Buer’s heart melted. How could she bear to strike with force?

Su Xuan raised an eyebrow. *Well, well, they really are treating me like a child.*

Without another word, he stepped forward. His long sword instantly left its scabbard as he charged towards Sun Buer at high speed.

True skill would be shown in action! He wouldn’t hold back!

A flicker of surprise passed through Sun Buer’s eyes.

*So fast!!*

Before she could regain her composure, Su Xuan’s sword had already reached her face.

Sun Buer instinctively raised her sword to block.

*Clang—*

*Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud...*

A numbness shot through Sun Buer’s tiger’s mouth. Her sword nearly flew from her grasp as she stumbled backward several steps before barely steadying herself.

*What immense strength!*

The noisy chatter at the scene instantly died away.

All the Quanzhen Sect Disciples stared dumbfounded at this scene.

After just one exchange, Junior Martial Uncle Sun was already at a disadvantage?

And the opponent was a child?

Was this a matter of courtesy, or could she genuinely not win?!

At this moment, Wang Chongyang’s brow furrowed tightly as well.

Others might not see it, but how could Wang Chongyang not?

That kid’s martial arts were definitely not inferior to Sun Buer’s; he even had the upper hand.

*Crack*

The armrest of the sandalwood chair was directly crushed into powder by Wang Chongyang’s grip.

*I’ve been deceived!*

*I wondered why this kid dared to challenge my Disciple!*

If this kid really won, would he truly never see Chaoying again in this lifetime?

He had sworn an oath!

On the other side, Sun Buer also put away any thoughts of going easy and grew serious.

Mainly because her strength didn’t permit otherwise! This child’s martial arts were formidable!

Sun Buer drew her long sword and discarded the scabbard, which had already been split apart.

Sword raised, she launched an attack towards Su Xuan.

The corner of Su Xuan’s mouth lifted. *Getting serious, are we?*

*Finally, I can test my sword!*

His feet moved like the wind, his sword tip trembling as he engaged Sun Buer in battle.

*Clang, clang, clang...*

In the blink of an eye, ten exchanges had passed.

Sun Buer found the fight increasingly difficult.

Her sword was nearly knocked from her hand several times, and blood began to seep from the tiger’s mouth of her palm.

Su Xuan, on the other hand, handled the situation with ease.

Most importantly, Su Xuan didn’t seem to be in a duel; it was more like he was practicing his swordsmanship.

Using Sun Buer as a test subject for his sword!

”Parting Blossoms, Brushing Willows!”

Su Xuan feinted with his sword, then thrust towards the direction Sun Buer was dodging.

Sun Buer’s pupils constricted sharply. *It’s over!*

*Bang*

Powerful energy swirled around the long sword. Sun Buer was directly sent flying off the arena by a single sword strike.

She crashed heavily off the platform.

She spat blood, her clothes were disheveled, her hair disheveled and loose, her hairpin long gone.

Everyone looked at this scene with utter disbelief.

Sun Buer, one of The Seven Quanzhen Masters, lost to a child?

If this got out, it would be the biggest joke in the world.

The gazes of those around her fell on Sun Buer like sharp needles. She was mortified.

Ignoring her own disheveled state and internal injuries, she grabbed her sword and ran down the mountain.

Su Xuan felt a slight sense of disappointment in his heart.

Although he won, he still hadn’t managed to test his true strength.

At least until now, he had never exerted his full power.

*The Seven Quanzhen Masters are truly useless!*

*Forget it, there will be plenty of time in the future.*

Su Xuan composed himself and looked up at Wang Chongyang, grinning as he said,

”Wang Chongyang, since you’ve lost, fulfill your promise!”

Before Wang Chongyang could reply, the Quanzhen Sect Disciples erupted in anger first.

”How dare you! How dare you address the Old Sect Leader by his name directly!”

”You little brat, how utterly disrespectful!”

”...”

The Quanzhen Sect Disciples glared at him furiously, but Su Xuan paid them no mind.

A bunch of cow-nosed Daoists weren’t even qualified to converse with him.

Su Xuan’s smile was like a curved knife constantly carving into Wang Chongyang’s heart.

Wang Chongyang forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and forced out a slight smile, saying,

”Little brother, are you mistaken? Where have I, this humble Daoist, lost?”

Su Xuan frowned slightly. ”Are you going back on your word?”

Lin Chaoying could also bear it no longer. She flew to Su Xuan’s side.

”Xuaner, let’s not compete anymore. Whatever you want, your Master will seize it for you directly. If these Stinky Daoist Priests dare to obstruct us, your Master will annihilate their entire Quanzhen Sect!”

”That’s right, Junior Martial Uncle, let’s not compete. These Stinky Daoist Priests only know how to spout nonsense...”

Little Dragon Girl also spoke indignantly from the side.

Lin Chaoying’s look of disgust hurt Wang Chongyang more than killing him. But to ensure he could see Lin Chaoying again in the future, Wang Chongyang chose to ignore it and continued,

”This humble Daoist made an oath back then; how could I go back on my word? It’s just that what I said was: if my Disciple loses to you, little brother, then it counts as my loss.”

”But I have seven Disciples. My other six Disciples haven’t lost to you yet, little brother. Where is the loss?”

Wang Chongyang was going all out.

Not only was he bullying the younger, but now he was also thinking of using a war of attrition!

Hearing this, even the Quanzhen Sect Disciples felt somewhat ashamed inside.

But they didn’t dare say much.

”You...” Lin Chaoying was so angry she was on the verge of taking action.

Su Xuan stopped her. ”Master, wait. Let your Disciple handle this.”

”But...”

”Your Disciple said I would help Master drive away this Stinky Daoist Priest, and I will definitely do it! Master wouldn’t want your Disciple to break a promise, would you?”

Hearing her little Disciple’s words, Lin Chaoying felt warmth in her heart. A glimmer of tears flashed in her eyes.

”Then... Xuaner, be careful~” She then turned a cold, furious glare towards Wang Chongyang. ”If Xuaner loses even a single strand of hair today, I will make your entire Quanzhen Sect pay with their lives!”

Hearing Lin Chaoying’s icy words, Wang Chongyang felt his heart bleeding.

Su Xuan said, ”That’s fine too. But the stakes will have to be increased.”

Wang Chongyang frowned slightly. ”What do you want?”

”The Nine Yin Manual!”

Su Xuan had searched within the Ancient Tomb but found no trace of the *Nine Yin Manual*. It was highly likely that the *Nine Yin Manual* was on Wang Chongyang’s person.

He might as well take advantage of this situation to get it.

A dangerous glint flashed in Wang Chongyang’s eyes. ”You have quite the ambition, kid.”

The *Nine Yin Manual*, as a Cultivation Technique fought over by the Five Greats,

naturally had a high Rank.

Although it still hadn’t exceeded the category of a Sect-Guarding Technique,

it was in no way inferior to the *Jade Maiden Heart Sutra* and the *Innate Skill*.

It might even be slightly stronger.

But at their Realm, that slight difference was inconsequential.

Wang Chongyang slightly composed himself. ”Agreed.”

*Swish*

Having gotten the desired result, Su Xuan’s lips curled into a cruel smile. His long sword pointed directly at Wang Chongyang. ”Come on!”

Perfect, he still didn’t know his true strength.

Since you’re delivering yourselves to my doorstep, don’t blame me for being impolite!

This time, he wouldn’t hold back!
