1011 Words
Noticing the mocking eyes of Zi Yingjun and recalling his provocative words, Zi Gu Bo held his explosive temper. It was clear Zi Yingjun is luring him to attack first then he will lose more face afterwards. If he let Zi Yingjun attack before him, at least he can stay on guard again and have proper preparations from every assault. Unfortunately, his opponent is a seven-hundred-year-old shameless demon.
Zi Yingjun lightly chuckled. He can see through Zi Gu Bo and that wariness is already set. Without wasting another time, Zi Yingjun made a stance as he directly ran to Zi Gu Bo. The young boy made sure to watch Zi Yingjun's every movement when something unexpected happened next. Zi Yingjun is about to spit out his saliva!
He is already showing his pearly white teeth and from his gestures, Zi Gu Bo knew he will really spit it out. This made him lose focus which Zi Yingjun took advantage of again.
"Enough game." Zi Yingjun used half of his speed. Because of the Body Tempering Pills he used are made from Ren Xieye Grass, the effect is more beneficial. Not even a second passed, Zi Yingjun is behind him. Zi Gu Bo have the impulse to retreat when Zi Yingjun spun. He sent a kick on Zi Gu Bo's chest. A slight cracking sound erupted while Zi Gu Bo retreated step by step.
"Not good! Zi Yingjun is only playing around the whole time....." Zi Gu Bo widened his eyes in shock. He just raised his head when Zi Yingjun arrived in front of him, making a spin with his foot going in contact with Zi Gu Bo's face.
Zi Gu Bo felt like his neck had been broken, even his jaw went numb! He directly fell outside the arena and the other second-rate talents helped him up. However, his sight is turning slightly dark from the impact. Zi Yingjun was standing on his place, his right leg raised to a triangular shape while the left one kept him standing. He had his hands on both sides while his gaze on Zi Gu Bo are full of mockery.
Huuu~~~
A Spring breeze passed by, making his hair and martial suit flutter. Zi Yingjun's current stance made him look like a martial artist expert or either an elegant crane showing off. It cant be helped but most of his peers started to admire him. Compared to Zi Gu Bo, Zi Yingjun is not even harmed for even one small bruise. As for Zi Gu Bo, he lost his tooth, went unconscious, his clothes collected dusts, blood dripping out from his mouth. Well, Zi Yingjun is in a much better shape as he looked unfettered.
Ignoring the gazes of annoyance and admiration, Zi Yingjun stepped off the stage.
Ta!
The heels of his shoes resounded around the silent ground. Zi Yingjun took a closer step to Zi Gu Bo. The second-rate talents were glaring to him. He shrugged his shoulder and took the qiankun bag of Zi Gu Bo. Pouring out all the four hundred spirit crystals, Zi Yingjun casually threw the empty qiankun bag back to Zi Gu Bo then transferring it to his own spatial bag.
"Sigh, you guys bring Zi Gu Bo to the Medicine Elder." the teacher waved his hand as they took Zi Gu Bo away before he turned to Zi Yingjun who is waiting for him to talk. "Zi Yingjun, I admire your innate talent in fighting but please reconsider your actions. Clan Leader has been having headaches earlier and he fears for your safety."
"Hehe." Zi Yingjun just laughed lightly. He know well Zi Ming Yun is having headaches because of his value. As the fiance of Jiang Clan's third young miss, he will bring Zi Clan a high and steady position in Da Long mountain since there are two more small-scale clan residing here. Second, Zi Ming Yun should have heard about him activating the rune formation into a higher level which proved more of his talent. Lastly, Zi Yingjun knew his uncle spent a huge sum to compensate the four or five branches he caused troubles with.
His daily life continued normally. Sleeping in class as always, waking up during lunch then keep avoiding the youngsters, hunting demon and spirit beasts and not returning to his uncle's side. After defeating Zi Gu Bo who is the greatest fighter among their peers, none wanted to challenge him but the teacher suddenly made Zi Yingjun their sparring partner!
Most of them recalling all the injuries he bestowed to his opponents, they cant help but shudder and reluctantly fight against him. Zi Yingjun is not lenient the slightest bit. He defeated all the males in his class and gifted them with light injuries. However, because of consuming too much of his cognition, he needed to rest for the whole night of Friday.
"Guh!" Zi Gu Bo was thrown off the stage again. He spat a mouthful of blood as his classmates supported his back. Looking up at the smiling demon, Zi Gu Bo felt fear sprouting in his heart.
Zi Yingjun was smiling faintly. His deep purple eyes taunting Zi Gu Bo. He stepped down the stage while secretly gritting his teeth. They may not see it from afar as Zi Yingjun left but if they are close enough, the trembling of Zi Yingjun's body will be visible.
"Damn it! I exceeded this body's limit. This is just a fifteen-year-old boy's body and it has its own limit when using force. These past months, I've been excessively hunting beast while sparring with those brats. I can't go on like this. Unfortunately, I can't force my body to grow up in a faster rate." Zi Yingjun thought. He stopped for a while then leaned on the white mossy wall. Gazing at his hand, he cant help but bitterly smile. "Well, I guess it's not bad having my old body back then. This body of mine is just suited for a child, sigh. Some things flow against my plans."
