CHAPTER 111: CRACK!

Chapter 111: Crack!

.

Zhu Rong couldn’t wait to finish the fights quickly to return to focusing on his cultivation, now that he had a large amount of concentrated QI in the red mist to use, and more than enough power to create his next cores and cultivate them to the level of all the others.

He didn’t want to waste time, so he didn’t hold back, and knocked out the girl from before.

He had already noticed the girl’s attitude, and though she said nothing, her every move made her arrogance clear.

In his eyes, her behavior wasn’t much different from that of a spoiled little girl who he would normally ignore,

but he knew that if he hadn’t reacted, she would probably have kept going, wasting his brain cells with her nonsense.

He had encountered many people of that type before, so he could recognize the attitude right away.

His actions were done only for the "good" of that girl; he would instill some humility in her and teach her not to underestimate her opponents, since that could cost her life in the future.

He nodded in his mind while thinking how, even in this life, he was only passing down his centuries old wisdom, and doing good deeds wherever he went.

And now seeing that the next opponent wasn’t very different from that girl, he thought of only one thing:

’Ah, another little lamb who has lost his way. Don’t worry, I’ll guide you back to the right path.’

The other side had no idea of Zhu Rong’s thoughts, but the expression he was giving made him almost shiver.

"What... was that feeling just now?"

He was confused, but also a little embarrassed, had he really been scared by the expression of the other side?

He, the stronger of the two, the strongest in this group and the only one with the right to look down on others, was just been scared?

He prepared himself, and as soon as the signal was given, he didn’t immediately charge in a direct attack, but instead infused the QI of the earth element into his hands, and with a quick movement sent it to the arena ground.

"Let’s see how you handle this," he said as he waited for something to happen in the area where Zhu Rong stood, but nothing happened.

Infact the other side smiled at him, lightly tapping the ground with the sole of his right foot.

He didn’t immediately understand what his opponent was doing, but soon he had a bad feeling.

Without thinking twice, he threw himself to the side, or at least tried to, but failed, as In the very next instant, as the tip of his opponent foot touched the ground, a portion of arena between his legs rose up and a stone pillar shot out, slamming into him just as he was about to move away.

Crack!

A thin sound echoed in the air as the surrounding atmosphere fell into silence.

The audience: "..."

The referee: "..."

Liang Yuexin: "..."

Everyone watched with horrified expressions and the examiner, who had sensed the fluctuations of elemental earth energy, looked with a grim expression at the poor man on the ground, crouched with an expression full of pain, holding the area between his legs.

And just like the previous match, Zhu Rong had defeated his opponent with a single move.

The examiner once again remained speechless, watching the man fallen in battle with compassion, then turned his gaze to the other side, who once again looked at him with an expression of expectation.

’Demon, he’s a demon!’

No matter how much he wanted to complain, he couldn’t do much, as there was no life threatening danger.

He just hoped the strike hadn’t ended the future lineage of that student.

He wore a grim and somewhat conflicting expression while trying to maintain composure and announced the result of the match:

"The winner is Zhu Rong."

His voice was low, as if he didn’t want to be associated with him, but the silent atmosphere allowed everyone to hear it.

In no time, just like before, a small commotion started among the students, this time much more agitated than before.

While the girls looked at Zhu Rong with terrified eyes, the boys unconsciously felt the urge to protect their future generations while cursing the other side for his cruelty.

The sound of the commotion had already attracted the attention of nearby arenas before, but it didn’t last long due to its minor impact.

This time, however, students from other arenas closer to Arena N.8 couldn’t help but hear what was being said, and as soon as they did, everyone had confused and doubtful expressions, wondering if they had heard correctly.

"Lineage eliminated?

no longer a man?

a fallen man?

In the name of heaven, what the hell is happening there?"

Zhu Rong, the culprit of all the commotion, didn’t care about this and looked toward the crowd as he said,

"Who’s next?"

His voice was calm, but in the eyes of the others, he looked like a demon searching for his next victim.

This time, unlike before, no one dared to say anything, not even daring to meet his gaze.

The judge, seeing this, could only shake his head.

Zhu Rong’s attack had been fast and cruel, and although many didn’t understand in detail what happened, some could perceive the energy surging forward and then snapping back at Shan Ding, this time faster and stronger.

The QI control infused into the arena was very high and precise, so that a single strike was enough to direct the energy to the exact point and then release it upward.

It might have seemed like a minor thing, but for students who had barley reached the second stage , this level of control was too advanced for them.

Not everyone noticed, but those who did swore in their minds they would never provoke Zhu Rong for any reason.

After all, no one wanted to end up in the same condition as Shan Ding.

They could only offer a small prayer for the fallen, who had sacrificed himself to reveal the true face of the demon in the arena.
