Happy Ending Part 1

Everyone had a surprised look on their face. No one expected the situation to unfold like this. Having his legs trembling and sweat dripping from forehead Huang zheng was unable to think of attacking again.

But Alex's face didn't have a speck of surprise as he already knew that the shadow sword arts he casually purchased in a few spirit stones could be compared with imperial academy's martial arts.

Huang zheng, After half an incense stick's time finally moved and attacked fiercely with his sword but he was already bound to lose.

The pressure he was dealing with at the moment was making his mind go blank. What would happen to his image if a C grade talent with lower cultivation defeated him? What would happen to his dao heart after losing to someone like that? He would be unable to break the knot in his heart and his cultivation would hit a bottleneck becoming a useless trash

Because of all these thoughts, he had lost his composer and was fighting like a beast forgetting his sword style, forgetting his martial skills, he was simply going berserk

But for Alex it was even more easy defeating him now as his every attack would counter the berserk sword attacks and with every counter, His moves were getting more and more polished heading towards perfection

'Time to end this'

Countering another attack with his sword he reached out his left arm towards Huang Zheng's chest

"Burning Flame Fist!!"

His fist seemingly consumed by flames moves attacked the chest following a loud explosion sound with a horrible shriek caused by the burning pain in Huang Zheng's chest

Due to the enormous force of fist he was thrown towards the spectators, His clothes were covered in blood as he kept coughing out more blood with pale and lifeless face

He was alive but he wished he would have died instead, the pain both external and internal was unbearable

Everyone has their jaw dropped even the crown prince was unable to comprehend what unbelievable event took place in front of his eyes

Sheathing his sword, Alex came back to the spectators and before he could say something an angry voice was heard

"impudence!! this was supposed to be a friendly match between the senior and junior. And yet you dared to heavily injuring one of my Duan ren's men"

"It was his fault challenging me without possessing the ability to fight me"

"He was clearly holding back from the start if he wanted he could have killed you in one strike. Whatever you say you need to provide an explanation for ruthlessly beating my men"

"There is no need for any explanation, if he lack ability to even defend himself then he shouldn't have challenged in the first place whatever happened was just an accident, let's just treat his injuries and continue our banquet" Crown Prince spoke without even glancing at Duan Ren

Duan Ren clenched his fist so tightly that sound of cracking could be heard from a distance

The banquet continued but nobody challenged anyone after witnessing the battle they just calmly enjoyed their tea while looking towards Alex and his group from time to time

Duan Ren was son of a noble family, beating one of his men so ruthlessly was equal to courting death

The banquet finally ended Duan Ren didn't wait for a moment and rushed towards the exit with two remaining men, He wanted to make Alex lose face but ended up digging a hole for himself

The four of us were about to leave when crown prince suggested to leave with his guards but Claude rejected the offer as he didn't want to owe any favor

The sun was about to submerge in the horizon, After walking halfway we finally reached the same grassland now having a crater

The four of us stopped walking followed by drake speaking in irritated tone

"You can come out and reveal yourself now"

"hehe your perception is quite good but it can't help you from meeting lord Yama today" Duan Ren came out with his two men and said

"you are not enough to make us meet him" Claude spoke in mocking tone

"Don't get ahead of yourself, Huang zheng was just an idiot who couldn't even kill ants, All three of us have cultivation of third stage of Qi condensation realm and I can already use Earth profound Qi, don't even think of leaving alive today"

"oh right you have a great sword technique, I will take it after killing you" Duan ren said while unsheathing his long sword

Both Mike and Alex took out their swords and stood in a fighting stance

Duan Ren appeared in front of them in less than a second, swinging his sword he shouted

"Mighty Warblade slash"

BOOM

The sword was so powerful that they were thrown back a dozen steps as their hands felt numb

The other two men looked at drake and Claude but before they attacked Claude came in front facing two of them and Duan Ren, he took out his rusty spear pointing at them

"Leave it to me and my divine spear"

"..."

"..."

"..."

All of them were dumbfounded by his actions

Alex started searching for a tree to bang his head on. Claude was indeed calculative and smart.... He was a calculative idiot
