YM778.TV Chapter 444: A battle that could be ended in an instant
Sunless stared at the figure that was surrounded by golden light. Her calm gaze gradually revealed a sense of fanaticism. Unknowingly, the corners of her mouth curved up as a faint smile suffused across her lips.
Was that his Sword Truth?
She liked it a lot.
She still remembered that night when he unintentionally entered her consciousness. He had used clumsy sword techniques to challenge her again and again. Back then, he was a complete noob in sword techniques. He did not even grasp the most basic of sword attacks. Back then, he couldn’t even slash out a sword beam.
She was always serious and did not know how to be euphemistic. Therefore, she defeated him again and again in a serious manner without showing him any mercy.
However, despite experiencing all those repeated failures, his pair of black eyes never once showed any signs of being disheartened. It constantly burned with an increasing amount of fighting spirit.
When would he give up?
With such a thought in mind, she was enjoying the situation but also worrying about it.
What made her delighted was that he never gave up. He did not give up even till the very end.
Not only did he not give up, he was also constantly improving. From the beginning when he could not produce a sword beam till he gradually grasped the ability to use sword beams. He had learned by himself without a master, the most basic Sword Intent and gradually grasped the outline of his own Sword Truth.
In one night, he had been defeated hundreds of times, but he did not slack off even once, much less feel disheartened. He proceeded forward step after step as he covered an unimaginable distance that caught people by surprise.
If not for day break, he would have comprehended his Sword Truth. That was what she firmly believed.
In a night, he went from a complete sword noob to a sword genius who had nearly comprehended Sword Truth. It was a fascinating transformation.
He was a real genius. How could she be compared to him?
After that night, she had a figure that she admired despite her being labeled as a rare sword genius. She knew that there would be a day when this youth, who would not be defeated by his failure, would definitely surpass her and become her target of pursuit.
However, she never expected that the day would come so soon.
At that very moment, be it Shi Xiaobai’s Sword Truth quality, the familiarization of his dual-wielding, or his ability to use different Sword Intents at the same time, it had demonstrated the prowess of a genius swordsman. In terms of sword techniques, he was still inferior to her, but he was already not too far off from her.
What sort of terrifying improvement speed was this?
“Sword techniques. He will definitely not be able to bridge the gap between me and him so easily, at least in terms of sword techniques.”
With this thought in mind, Sunless clenched the sword by her waist tightly.
…
The Pulp Farmer trio looked at one another. Back at the Braveheart Martial Arts Tournament, they had seen Shi Xiaobai’s terrifying physical strength. At this moment, they realized that Shi Xiaobai’s sword techniques were even better than his physical strength. Furthermore, his strength and speed appeared to have improved ever since the tournament.
The two figures that were constantly in pursuit of each other clashed. At that moment, what they showcased wasn’t considered beautiful techniques, but true strength and speed. It was the most astounding display of one’s foundations.
Feng Yuanlin watched with a torpid gaze, “So powerful. He’s so powerful!”
Liu Yu said with a sigh, “Benefactor Shi Xiaobai is indeed the favored child of heaven. This Penniless Priest can already predict that after the trial ends, not just all of China but the entire world will cast their eyes on this star that has suddenly lit up. People who know of this story will definitely not be stingy with their praises.”
“Of course there won’t be any lack of doubts and the threat of placing him too high on a pedestal, but with Benefactor Shi Xiaobai’s character, he would not stop because of it. He will keep going faster and climb even higher until he can tower above the entire world. No, even when he reaches that point, he would still never stop.”
Pulp Farmer said with eyes filled with mixed emotions, “For a person like Shi Xiaobai, even without astounding talent, one will definitely be able to succeed and be able to achieve something. I’ve learned a lot of valuable lessons from him.”
When a peer that was running beside you began running further and further ahead of you, you might be motivated or disheartened. It might also make you chase in disgruntlement, or lose heart because of jealousy.
The same situation could result in many different outcomes. It was a problem of choice, but that right to choose, lay in the hands of the person in question. Therefore the outcome of the choice would be different depending on the person. It was also because of you yourself and the peer that is ahead of you.
The Pulp Farmer trio’s characters, personalities and morals were different, so their contemplations would also be greatly different, but at that moment, their thoughts were surprisingly the same.
They were not disheartened or feeling disgruntled, nor was there jealousy.
They felt an actual sense of motivation.
That was because the person running in front of them was Shi Xiaobai.
That fearless Shi Xiaobai who was never disheartened, disgruntled or jealous. All he did was run forward with all his mind and soul!
…
“What is going on? Was that bastard so fierce when he was fighting with This Emperor? His speed and strength have completely risen to another level. Could it be…could it be that the bastard was hiding his strength back then? Against This Emperor, he actually dared to hold back? What woe. What intense woe! I really…really want to fight that bastard in an all-out battle!”
Speechless stared as he focused his eyes on Shi Xiaobai, who was in hot pursuit while fiercely attacking. Shi Xiaobai did not give his opponent a chance for a breather, and this made Speechless even more depressed.
If not for the hole through his left chest, he would definitely not be able to curb his feelings of joining the battle. Now, all he could do was stand there doing nothing as he got inundated by the fighting spirit. It was depressing and stifling.
When Speechless heard the Pulp Farmer trio praise Shi Xiaobai, he immediately felt even more depressed.
At that moment, he suddenly heard Feng Yuanlin say in excitement, “It feels, it feels like Boss Shi Xiaobai can win! If Boss Shi Xiaobai defeats the imitated Hero King, wouldn’t that mean that Boss Shi Xiaobai is stronger than the Hero King at the Psionic Mortal Realm? Even if it can’t be proven, it would at least prove that Boss Shi Xiaobai is stronger than Speechless. After all Speechless has already lost, and Boss Shi Xiaobai has been holding the advantage from the very beginning up to now! Wow, Boss Shi Xiaobai is really the strongest rookie!”
Feng Yuanlin, who had a screw loose, was completely engrossed in the battle in front of him. His over-excitement made him forget that Speechless was standing just beside him.
A careless remark may sound significant to an attentive listener, however, Speechless nearly broke his teeth from clenching them as he turned his head to look at Feng Yuanlin who had forgotten himself. He felt depressed and could not help but interrupt, “Shi Xiaobai’s strength is indeed not bad. But compared to the Hero King, he is still greatly inferior. Watch carefully. Although the Hero King is constantly retreating and fleeing, every time she is caught up, she would take the opportunity to launch a counterattack.”
“However, Shi Xiaobai’s dual-wielding kamikaze style is somewhat too scoundrelly. She did not wish for an internecine outcome, so she could only retreat every time. Of course, Shi Xiaobai’s speed and strength is extremely extraordinary. The usage of his dual-wielding and his Sword Truth is also done in a skilful and practiced manner. This is the reason why he is able to force the Hero King into such a situation. But, that is only an illusion on the surface! The Hero King’s strength far exceeds Shi Xiaobai. If she wants to win, the battle can be ended in an instant!”
Speechless’ words immediately attracted the gazes of the spectators.
If the Hero King wanted to win, she could end the battle in an instant?
That situation was completely unlike what was happening now?
