Chapter 29 Fighting With Liu Heng
Liu Xin looked at me with shock. He was talking to Liu Kun about something, and he raised his eyebrows when Liu Kun pointed at me. I frowned, but I laid back regardless. He was just another obstacle in my way.
"The third round shall start now. Liu Kun and Liu Xin, enter the stage." the judge called out.
I looked at this with amusement. Brother pitted against brother. I knew what would happen, but it was still a little interesting to watch. Now, one of them would be forced to battle for thrid place, and it sure as hell was not Liu Xin.
The two brothers got onto the ring.
"I forfeit." Liu Kun said.
The judge nodded, and called that out. The two brothers went back down and sat next to each other. Then, they continued talking to each other about something. I shook my head and sent some Qi to my spatial ring. A spear appeared in my hands which was beneath my chair. No one saw me use the spatial ring, so that secret was still safe.
"Liu Heng and Liu Feng, enter the stage." the judge said.
I got up with the spear in my hand. I slowly went up the stage. My father looked at me with confusion. He did not understand where the spear came from. The others might think that he brought it here, but he was not in the know. Opposite to me, a beautiful girl stood tall and strong. She looked at me with a cold glance.
"Junior brother. I am truly surprised that you got so far. But this is where your journey ends. I am in the foundation building stage, while you started cultivating for a mere few months. Just quit so that I can try and beat Liu Xin with my full power." she said coldly.
"While you do think that you need your full power to beat him, I am in the opinion that I also should have the chance to teach him a lesson. I am afraid that I cannot concede to you." I shook my head.
"Why do you want to waste everyone's time? You are even using a spear. You have basically given up! What you are doing is just a waste of the elders' time." she said.
"Enough talking. We should start the match." I said as I pointed my spear towards her.
The judge sighed. "Start."
Immediately, a sword appeared in her hands.
"You have a spatial ring!" I cried out in shock.
"I am the daughter of the first elder. Of course, I have a spatial ring." she sneered. She ran towards me with the sword. Immediately, my instincts kicked in. I used my spear to block her moves. She was fast and nimble, but I got an incredible increase in my stats every since I increased my cultivation to the Foundation Establishment stage.
"You are just trying to stall!" she shouted as a giant Qi wave approached me. I looked at the upcoming attack calmly and swept it with my spear. The spear cut through the attack, giving me a sort of a shield from the wave. Qi passed over me and to my side, but it did not affect me.
She looked at this with shock.
"Heaven Returning Strike!" she cried out.
"Isn't that the same attack that Liu Kun used? It seems that everyone in the Liu Family has a limited number of skills to choose from, especially for the weapons. If that is the case, then I am going to be in luck." I smiled. All of the attacks that I have seen in the matches before would repeat themselves now. They would just be of higher power levels. Now that I knew what to expect, I moved accordingly.
The sword was approaching me at a terrifying speed, but my spear was not lying around. The first attack of the Blue Dragon spear art!
The spear pierced towards the sword, and both of them met each other.
Clang!
The sound of the two weapons colliding was loud and deafening. But the outcome was clear. Liu Heng took three steps back, looking at me with shock.
"You are in the Foundation Establishment stage as well!" she cried with shock.
Everyone looked at me with shock now.
"He is in the foundation establishment stage? But I thought that he could not even cultivate. It seems that Liu Qian has brought up a hidden tiger. To think that he would hide someone like this for so long!" one person commented.
"The Liu Family has three members of the younger generation in the foundation establishment stage! This is truly a surprise!" another exclaimed. I looked at them and shook my head.
"So I am no longer wasting your time?" I asked, smiling.
"You jest, Junior brother. If I had known this before, I would never have said this. But the battle is far from over." she said, changing her expression from shock to seriousness.
She moved fast. Bizzaringly fast. I could no longer see her clearly, and could only sense her general position.
Whiz!
I moved to the side on instinct. A sword sliced past me. The sword was fast. Far too fast. I could not sense anything at all. I did not know where she was. I calmed myself. For this, I had the perfect attack.
Third attack of the Blue Dragon Spear art!
As she was moving around the ring, my spear swept apart through the nine feet around me. It was bound to hit her once. And it did.
Clang!
Liu Heng used her sword to block the spear, but now I knew where she stood. I gripped the spear tight and pierced at where the spear had stopped. She could no longer dodge this move.
"I yield!" she cried out.
The moment she said that, I yanked the spear back. I looked at her. She looked weak. The speed that she just showed was probably at the expense of immense amounts of Qi. She would probably have not been able to keep up for long.
"It was a good fight." I put my fists together.
"Liu Feng wins!"
