Chapter 92: The Surprise at the Wheel Challenge
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Killed in a split second. He was really killed in a split second!?
Furthermore, it was Sun Hao who was killed in a split second!
Qin Shaobai’s expression changed tremendously, and he stood up. Elder Yang Yan was stunned as well and also sat up straight.
Yanyan and Mrs. Ximen’s eyes were wide open, still unable to believe everything that they just saw!
Everyone on the field was shocked and stood up, staring at Yang Dingtian in disbelief!
How could this have happened?
At first, everyone thought that Yang Dingtian would definitely end up being cut open from shoulder to stomach. However, it turned out to be such an unexpected scene.
Wasn’t Yang Dingtian still an enlightener five days ago? Didn’t all those who tried to cultivate the Pig Killing Swordsmanship turn into madmen or cripples?
Sun Hao was a Three-star Xuan Martial Artist but was killed by Yang Dingtian in a split second. Then, what could Yang Dingtian’s rank be? It needs to be at least a few stars higher. But, in merely five days, Yang Dingtian had actually managed to break through dozens of levels. The notion was insane as there hadn’t been any similar cases in the past thousand years.
…
In the battlefield, there were a few minutes of silence!
“Yang Dingtian…” Suddenly, a disciple that was rooting for Yang Dingtian shouted.
Then, more and more people began shouting his name!
“Long live City Lord Ximen. Long live City Lord Ximen….”
In the end, all of the accolades focused on Ximen Wuya.
The result of this match didn’t only represent Yang Dingtian but also Ximen Wuya’s prestige and status!
Hearing the cheers down there, Yang Yan and the others’ facial expressions turned bad. At first, they thought of using Yang Dingtian’s failure to shake Ximen Wuya’s prestige, but they never thought that the rock they threw would end up hurting themselves.
Qin Shaobai’s original indifferent expression instantly turned serious, and he stared at Yang Dingtian with a fierce gaze.
Yang Dingtian, who had killed his opponent in a split second, had not much of an expression on his face, not to mention emotions.
In merely five days, he was able to break through dozens of ranks, which was something that no one had ever heard of. There was a glimpse of killing intent in Qin Shaobai’s gaze.
“Originally, we only wanted to humiliate you, break your hands and legs, and kick you out of Cloud Sky City. But, since you dared to perform so well here, then I can’t spare you,” Qin Shaobai said in his heart. He felt the threat as he heard the people shouting down there.
If Yang Dingtian doesn’t die, he won’t be able to sit comfortably on the City Lord’s position.
Immediately, Qin Shaobai exchanged a gaze with Tang Boshao as if he was giving a strict and cold order!
It was undoubtedly an order! Although he was still young and his cultivation was much weaker than Tang Boshao’s, he still saw everyone in Cloud Sky City as little more than servants. Only the Northwest Qin Family was the supreme ruler in the entire western region. After Ximen Wuya passed away, Cloud Sky City was nothing.
Tang Boshao nodded, and he signaled with his fingers!
Facing this scenario, although they felt it was impossible, they still made relevant back-up plans.
This plan was personally designed by Qin Shaobai to kill Yang Dingtian!
…..
“Silence!” Tang Boshao stood on the higher stage and shouted strictly. “The competition is not over yet. Don’t simply talk as you like!”
Then, he looked at Yang Dingtian and said, “Yang Dingtian, you have won the first match of the Wheel Challenge, and you still have to win two more matches to become a disciple of Cloud Sky City. Only then will you be qualified to participate in the competition for the position of City Lord next year!”
Then, he looked at the nine remaining challengers and said, “Who wants to challenge Yang Dingtian next?”
The nine remaining people remained quiet! Yang Dingtian’s split-second killing move was too intimidating!
“Anyone who beats Yang Dingtian will be able to stay in Cloud Sky City,” Tang Boshao said.
“Me!” One among the crowd stepped forward.
This person was physically strong, and there was a dangerous aura around him.
After seeing this person, all of the Cloud Sky City disciples became suspicious as this person’s face was new. No one had ever seen him before.
Of course, they wouldn’t have because this person was Qin Shaobai’s follower who arrived just four days ago.
He was an executioner whose role was to kill Yang Dingtian. He was a Qin Shaobai’s chess piece.
“What is your name?” Tang Boshao said.
“Gan Lang!” the man said coldly.
“What is your cultivation? What was your ranking in the elimination battle just now?” Tang Boshao asked.
“Ninth from the bottom, a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist!” Gan Lang said.
Instantly, everyone was shocked! This year’s Cloud Sky City disciples were so strong? In previous years, the bottom ten places were all six-star Xuan Martial Artists, but this year’s bottom nine actually included a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist?
But, since he was Qin Shaobai’s chess piece, then a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist must only be his surface capability, and his actual cultivation must be much greater! What his true capabilities were, no one knew except for Qin Shaobai and himself!
Also, his entire body was filled with the aura of bloodthirst. It was obvious that he’d gone through a lot of battlefields and had killed countless people!
…
Gan Lang slowly walked up to the battleground and stood still in front of Yang Dingtian, looking at him as if he was looking at a dead person!
On the higher stage, Yanyan and Mrs. Ximen exchanged glances and both saw a glimpse of worry and premonition in the other’s eyes. Meanwhile, Ximen Lie was lost in thought!
“I’ve seen this person. I have definitely seen this person before!” Ximen Lie said.
He had truly seen this person before, but he couldn’t immediately remember when. But the moment he saw him, his first impression was bloodthirst and violence!
By now, Gan Lang had already taken out his weapon.
Everyone was shocked to see that his weapon wasn’t the sword he used during the competition just now but a pair of scary metal claws that were sharp and ugly. There were bright red stains on it. One could not tell how many people’s blood stained it.
“I remember. This person is the body-ripping devil from the Northwest Qin Family’s military. It’s just that he was previously wearing a black mask, so I didn’t recognize him.” Ximen Lie’s expression changed. “This person is from the Qin City military. He fought over hundreds of battles and killed hundreds of people without a single defeat! Also, this killer would always rip his opponent apart in an extremely violent and bloody manner. They are trying to kill Yang Dingtian!”
“Despicable!” Mrs. Ximen said.
Yanyan said, “Brother, then what is his cultivation?”
“I don’t know, but the number of Xuan Martial Artists who have died under his claws is not fewer than ten,” Ximen Lie said.
Hearing that, Yanyan and Mrs. Ximen’s expressions changed.
Yanyan said hurriedly, “From the match between Yang Dingtian and Sun Hao, I’m guessing that his cultivation should be around seven-star Xuan Martial Artist. But, if he were to fight Gan Lang, wouldn’t he definitely die?”
Indeed, Yang Dingtian killing Sun Hao in a split second looked extremely cool. But for those with a higher cultivation, they would be able to see that his Xuan energy cultivation was only around six or seven stars.
And around ten people around this level had died under the hands of this body-ripping devil, Gan Lang!
In addition, Gan Lang had participated in the most bloody and violent battles. Those weren’t martial arts competitions but fights where the only outcome for the loser was death!
That’s why, even if Yang Dingtian managed to break through, he still had no actual experience on the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Gan Lang had experienced hundreds of fights where he had to crawl through fresh blood and corpses. His expertise wasn’t in martial arts fights but in killing!
The fact that Qin Shaobai sent him meant that he wanted Yang Dingtian dead!
……
At the moment, Tang Boshao’s expression was cold and showed a glimpse of violence at the edges of his mouth. He looked at Yang Dingtian and said, “I never thought that the chess piece we placed here would be put to use. Yang Dingtian, it is you who seeks death. Don’t blame us.”
Then, Tang Boshao looked at the battle stage and said, “In this Wheel Challenge, put in all your effort. There may be bloodshed or injuries or even death! So, leave your fates in this match to God!”
After he said that, even the Cloud Sky City disciples could feel the premonition of a violent battle and felt chills in their necks.
Gan Lang opened his mouth towards Yang Dingtian, exposing his white teeth as if he was about to rip through Yang Dingtian’s flesh and draw blood.
“Start….” Tang Boshao shouted, and he slammed his hands down as if signaling an execution!
“Wait….”Mrs. Ximen stood up, looked at Yang Yan and the rest, and laughed. “Elder, how can someone be so shameless to this extent? This Gan Lang, is he from Cloud Sky City? He was obviously the body-ripping devil from the Northwest Qin Family’s military. What are your motives to have him planted in this elimination competition? You’ve seen Yang Dingtian’s capabilities and want to kill him. Is that it?”
Qin Shaobai stood up and said, “Mrs. Ximen, how is he not part of Cloud Sky City? Since I am already one of Cloud Sky City’s people, how is it that the person I brought isn’t also a disciple of Cloud Sky City?”
Then, Qin Shaobai looked at Yang Dingtian and said, “If you say that Gan Lang didn’t learn martial arts in Cloud Sky City, then has Yang Dingtian learned martial arts in Cloud Sky City? Is the Pig Killing Swordsmanship one of Cloud Sky City’s Martial Arts? Since Yang Dingtian could be a disciple of Cloud Sky City and even the successor, then why can’t my Gan Lang be a disciple of Cloud Sky City?”
Qin Shaobai was truly cunning, and although what he said was ridiculous, no one was able to argue.
That was true. If Yang Dingtian could be a disciple of Cloud Sky City, then Gan Lang also can be.
Mrs. Ximen was so furious that she trembled. “It’s obvious that his capabilities way surpass the Xuan Martial Artist rank. Why would he end up in the bottom ten? What are your motives?”
Qin Shaobai laughed and did not explain further.
Ximen Yan laughed and answered, “He must have lost it in the elimination competition. There isn’t any rule in the elimination competition saying that a person can’t act abnormal!”
“Ximen Yan, you’re such a traitor!” Looking at how Ximen Yan shamelessly stood by Qin Shaobai, Ximen Lie couldn’t help but retort angrily.
Ximen Yan gave a cold sneer and backed off, not saying any more.
Tang Boshao’s face turned cold. “Yang Dingtian, this Battle Ring Wheel Challenge is not a child’s game. The opponent in front of you is already determined. You either choose to fight or admit your defeat. There isn’t a third option!”
Fight? This Gan Lang standing before him was a bloodthirsty devil that killed dozens of Xuan Martial Artist with his own hands. Meanwhile, Yang Dingtian was only a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist.
Don’t fight? That would mean he admits defeat and will be kicked out of Cloud Sky City!
“The sky has turned dark. The thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples have no time to waste with you,” Tang Boshao shouted. “Fight or admit defeat? I will count to three. You must give me an answer!”
“Three…”
“Two…..”
Fight or admit defeat?
Fight and he might die! Back off and he would lose!
“One….,” Tang Boshao yelled out the last number!
…..
Instantly, all Cloud Sky City disciples looked to Yang Dingtian, anticipating his final decision!
“Fight!!”
Yang Dingtian shouted out loud and slammed the gigantic Millennium Owl Sword of his into the ground.
Instantly, there was a spark.
