CHAPTER 771: CHAPTER 473: MARQUIS OF ROSE, FIRST KILL!

"Yes, Mr. Feith,"

"That’s interesting. I thought he’d spend another year or two in the C division before making it to our B division,"

The implication in those words seemed to express great confidence in Wayne’s strength.

A chubby man nearby, stuffing his mouth with high-calorie roast chicken, muttered, "That’s not necessarily true. Everyone knows that the ancient land of dragons in China always tends to produce some freaks... But it’s weird, why did someone from the China Region come over here?"

Indeed, moving from G to C clearly indicates a rookie who just joined within the month.

"That might suggest he’s picking a fight. If Wayne loses, well~"

The few B-division masters on-site grinned playfully as Feith slapped the chubby man’s shoulder, "Come on, Alec, let’s go check out the spectacle..."

The big guy was reluctant but followed since Feith was always the boss, grabbing the plate of roast chicken as he went...

They had just entered when they witnessed that scene.

Both of them stopped in their tracks.

The girl’s right palm was open, touching a fist that was slightly larger than hers.

If one second was a paused silence, the next was a roaring storm.

Boom!

With the two of them at the core, the platform behind them surged, overturning several tables and chairs, and leaving people near the platform tumbling around.

One was a Chinese master with powerful Inner Strength; the other was from the United Kingdom... right, the power system of these foreigners wasn’t Inner Strength, but embedded directly into the physique, like muscular strength and so on...

Human weapon, that’s probably the idea.

But the sense Sui Yi gave off... her physical power was definitely not strong because she rarely went head-to-head with others.

--Which means minimal physical contact.

The wave of air rising behind Sui Yi was somewhat stronger. Did that mean Wayne was stronger?

Most people might think so, yet the two were flung backward at the same time...

But some felt there was something odd about the way the pair flew back. If Wayne’s departure was fast and sharp, then the other’s was relaxed and slow...

Slow?

They even landed simultaneously on opposite corners of the platform’s posts.

Wayne’s expression grew serious, "Your Inner Strength in China is quite formidable, but you seem to lack a complementary system of Martial Arts... just relying on acupoint techniques?"

"If that’s really the case, then you might not be as formidable as I had expected,"

His demeanor was so calm, it appeared he had everything figured out, which pleased many spectators. Mark looked up at the screen, which still displayed the records of the last fight, his fight, with a small box beside showing the betting scenarios. The number of people who bet on him was slightly more, but not by much. Forty people wagered a total of 160 Combat Points; half of the winners scored about 64 Combat Points, but 32 went to Sui Yi. That was a decent profit, comparable to a B-division fight, but this current match...

Had quietly attracted a hundred bets, totaling a whopping 800 Combat Points, with Sui Yi’s odds extremely high, almost four to one betting on Wayne to win.

This was a gamble.

Clearly, most people favored the significantly intimidating Wayne.

Yet Mark bet 10 Combat Points on Sui Yi.

Why?

Because of intuition!

"She just won’t go down that easily..." Mark thought...

And Sui Yi’s response to Wayne’s challenge was quite simple.

"Acupoint?" Her English was obviously good. Although ’acupoint’ was hard to explain in English and no direct term existed, the crowd still got the gist.

Then, collective skepticism.

"Wasn’t that acupoint technique just then?" Wayne inquired, astonished.

Sui Yi’s lips twitched slightly, showing an incredulous look...

Okay, quite a few fashionable Brits instantly understood.

--You folks are so rustic, mistaking my casual wrist pinch for acupoint technique! Really backward!

"Well, despite the misunderstanding, I do hope you demonstrate some genuine acupoint secrets from China~"

Sui Yi remained silent, just standing on that post, her clothes fluttering from the increasingly victorious air current around Wayne as he grasped at the air, "Huh~" the air coiled into his palm, forming a milky white sphere...

That moment, Sui Yi felt the oxygen around her seemed to be sucked away...

The suffocating sensation pressed down!

Under such conditions, her reactive nerves were shackled...

Whoosh!

Wayne had reached in front of her, the palm sphere rotating into a vortex, emitting a tearing noise!

Boom!

He slammed it directly toward Sui Yi’s face!

At first glance, such power differed vastly from China’s ancient martial arts; it resembled more of a spell.

And as that sphere crashed...

Boom!

The platform’s surface blasted up with numerous stone fragments, which shot off the platform, bang, bang, bang! Some wine bottles and glasses were shattered, and someone screamed...

That’s what you get for sitting so close!

But the power was indeed terrifying.

"Wayne is even using this move; he’s really serious,"

"He has to be serious..."

Feith and others watched intently, shedding their previous playful demeanor.

Mark and his group didn’t have time to pay attention to the misfortune of these weaker spectators; their faces tensed up, showing distinct nerves...

Because they couldn’t see her!

Where was Sui Yi?

"Up there!"

Above, one person!

Wayne, suspended, whirled his legs like a tornado, the leg shadows whipping up a massive amount of stone debris, flinging it upwards, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The sniper rifle’s coverage was dense as it swept through the crowd!

It completely enveloped Sui Yi in mid-air, leaving no gaps....

Such rapid attacks, such ruthless methods....

At that moment, Sui Yi, high in the air, remained motionless, maintaining her upward momentum, yet it seemed as if she had paused when her right hand flicked at the moment the first diamond-shaped rock zipped towards her eyes! Bang bang bang!

In an instant, her finger flicked shadows.

All those rocks were deflected back down!

Bang bang bang!

It was like Heavenly Maiden Scattering Blossoms, a chaotic bombardment!

The arena’s ground was a mess, further stones and small holes blasted apart.. In this chaos, whoosh! Wayne sliced through the bombardment like a knife, gliding close to the ground...

Appearing ahead...

But as he looked up, he saw Sui Yi’s fingertips clutching an inconspicuous pebble...

Thud!

It struck his left shoulder... hitting the acupoint!

Instant paralysis!

Half his shoulder was paralyzed!

Damn it, this was true acupoint targeting...

And that power...

She had not used her full strength before!

Boom!

Wayne crashed into the pillar behind him, breaking it!

He was sent flying....

This is bad, Wayne is going to lose....

Suddenly, he grabbed the broken pillar behind him, twisted like a corkscrew in mid-air, and fiercely jabbed the pillar down to the ground!

Loud as a gong, boom!

So domineering, so ruthless!

The entire pillar plunged into the ground outside the arena, six or seven meters away, and he kicked off that pillar to propel himself forward...y!

With his hand stretched out...

"Anna!"

"I’m coming, my dear!"

Three seconds before, the voluptuous Anna had already leaped onto that massive weapons rack... jumping directly on top, clinging like a gecko to the five-meter-high section, from among the densely packed two hundred weapons, she directly drew one...

"Wayne, catch!"

Whoosh!

It was a sword.

A sleek and sharp foil.

"Ha, Wayne, taking a sword in front of us and leaving the lady empty-handed is quite rude!" A voice exploded from somewhere, followed by a tall figure jumping from the second-floor balcony, a good ten meters away. He leapt in two arcs straight above the weapon rack, a long hand like a giant fan fiercely swiped...

Clatter!

The weapons on the giant rack shook heavily, and the thirty lighter ones near him all detached and flew towards Sui Yi...

Such a vast and grand sight shocked everyone present...

Many in the crowd wanted to flee but couldn’t outrun their speed!

It must be said, the man borrowing the sword didn’t care about their lives!

"Chinese friend, I don’t know which one you prefer, please pick one yourself!"

By yourself, please!

To the left was a foil, but to the right were thirty fiercely incoming weapons. Was it a polite offer to borrow a sword, or was there an ulterior motive?

Sui Yi’s lips slightly pursed, with a light tap of her foot, she moved like a ghostly shadow, leaping into the thick of those weapons, walking over each flying weapon. The weapons seemed unaffected, as if she was merely a powerless gust of wind, or an invisible ghost...

What kind of movement technique and speed was this?

At that moment... She had already grabbed a sword, the solitary stealthy figure then revealed itself, facing Wayne?

NO!

With a boost, she stepped on a broad British greatsword, leaping five meters into the air... sword rising, momentum declared!

A great wind began as clouds surged!

Boom!

Twenty-nine weapons... with devastating Sword Qi twisting the blade up.. spinning at high speed...

Twenty-nine rapidly spinning weapons....

Were launched explosively towards Wayne’s direction!

Wayne, already holding the foil, saw this scene, his complexion instantly turned pale, unable to dodge, left only to block or break!

Break?

All those weapons were damn engulfed in that terrifying Sword Qi!

That Sword Qi was the king! Commanding these high-quality blades in a collective military assault...

He felt as if he was facing an army!

The majestic aura was terrifying...

Though Wayne’s will was also firm, and his competitive spirit strong, at this moment he still refused to admit defeat, merely clenching his teeth, sword ready...

Clashhh~

Twenty-nine weapons cutting through the air... needing only three seconds...

Puff puff puff!

All planted back into the original weapon rack...

Returning to their spots, the neat clang~~~ caused a resonance, as if it could burst their eardrums. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend, and vote on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read on m.qidian.com.)
