Last week, our attempt to climb the rankings failed. Xiao Mo thought it over, and it hurt – a lot.
What will happen this week? Xiao Mo urgently needs your recommendation votes and member clicks! I’m yelling myself hoarse, begging for the support of all heroes and heroines, so that Martial Peak can stand tall in the new book rankings!!
*********** Having suffered a hidden loss, Li Yuntian didn’t dare to be careless. Relying on his agile movement technique, he maneuvered around Yang Kai, leaping up and down, waiting for the right moment to strike. Soon, he had landed over a dozen palm strikes on Yang Kai.
«This is what you get for being so petty, for sending me to the Contribution Hall to be humiliated at the crack of dawn,» Li Yuntian gloated inwardly. His blows were heavy, each one landing with a thud on Yang Kai’s body. Watching from a distance, Su Mu was dazzled, as if he were the one delivering the beating, and felt an indescribable satisfaction.
Both fighters were at the Body Tempering Realm, just starting their cultivation, so their techniques were limited. What’s more, Yang Kai intentionally tested his current physical condition, which allowed Li Yuntian to gain the upper hand.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Yang Kai had made up his mind. His body was now in pretty good shape, much better than before. Having achieved his goal, he no longer intended to continue sparring with this junior brother.
Li Yuntian was about to press the attack when he suddenly saw that the senior brother who had been retreating step by step suddenly became excited, like a lecherous demon catching sight of a naked maiden. The ecstatic look in his eyes gave Li Yuntian goosebumps.
But on closer inspection, this excitement was different from that kind of excitement. It was a cruel, bloodthirsty excitement.
Li Yuntian realized something was wrong and tried to distance himself, but Yang Kai took a step forward, blocking his path like a towering mountain.
Li Yuntian leaped high to escape Yang Kai’s pursuit, but Yang Kai kicked him with immense force, striking him in the waist.
With a miserable cry, Li Yuntian flew backward like a torn sack, landing several zhang away. Before he could get up, Yang Kai rushed over and straddled him, raining down a flurry of punches.
Screams immediately erupted.
The sparring match finally ended with Li Yuntian begging for mercy.
At first, when Yang Kai had knocked him down and was pounding him, Li Yuntian tried to resist desperately. But Yang Kai completely ignored his attacks, adopting a crazy trade-blow-for-blow style.
Soon, Li Yuntian couldn’t hold on any longer. He noticed a strange thing: after being hit, he and Yang Kai had completely different reactions.
When he hit Yang Kai, the more he hit, the more excited Yang Kai became. But when Yang Kai hit him, the more he hit, the more pain Li Yuntian felt.
How could anyone get excited from being beaten? In the end, Li Yuntian even saw that Yang Kai’s skin had turned red, blood surging beneath it, veins bulging, his expression ferocious, as if he had fallen into a Demonic Frenzy.
For a moment, Li Yuntian thought Yang Kai had really gone mad. But after the sparring ended, this senior brother was completely normal, his face kind and friendly. He even warmly pulled Li Yuntian up from the ground, smiled, and said, «You’re too kind,» then picked up his broom and left.
He was like two completely different people in and out of battle!
Li Yuntian’s entire body ached terribly. He had taken so many of Yang Kai’s punches, how could he not be injured?
This time, his scheme had truly backfired. Li Yuntian wanted to cry but had no tears.
The other had refused several times, not wanting to spar, but he had insisted, bringing herbs bought with twenty contribution points and begging for a fight. In the end, he was beaten up, the herbs taken away, and for losing the match, he would also have contribution points deducted.
This really was a huge loss! Wasn’t this just asking for trouble? Li Yuntian was full of regret.
Su Mu and the others were also stunned. When Li Yuntian and Yang Kai started fighting, they couldn’t help but cheer, celebrating the success of Li Yuntian’s plan, looking forward to seeing Yang Kai get beaten.
