Chapter 47 Sword Arts

To be the most powerful, one has the start from the scratch, going through rigorous training, cutting ties with love ones or letting go of their emotions sometimes.

To be rich, one has to learn to take risk and face problems with a smile and not with tears. One must be able to use a common copper coin to fetch large numbers of gold coins.

To be wise, going through intense reading and learning from masters, one need to sacrifice their time for the books.

To be anything good, something good has to go for it; that was a lesson Liam has learned from his two lives.

If you have cob of maize, hungry will always kick in but if you let go of that hunger and patiently sow the seeds, in four months time you won't be talking about one or two, hundred might even be the lowest you get at the end of that period.

They called him shameless, unrighteous and stupid because of what he did but that didn't injure his skin or make his eyes wet.

Infact, just challenging ten persons was able to get fetch him two hundred gold coins that will be enough to feed all the crowds for at least two months.

They wasted their salivas while he gained wealth, the cursed at him but actually he was getting blessed. Being shameless is definitely one of the golden characters that one must have sometimes.

"200 gold coins, how about that?"

Hester said with a smile, among all the crowds he was among the ten persons seating, he spoke to Liam while waving the fan at himself.

'200 gold is tempting, but I'm not that cheap to fight with, hehe' Liam laughed evilly in his heart.

Then he raised his fingers and raised five fingers, meaning that he was going to accept the challenge if only he was offered five hundred gold coins.

Seeing this, the crowd of eagerly waiting spectators open their mouth so wide but no words was coming out of it, the kind of surprise they had was like that comes from heartbreak.

Heater smile froze, his eyes coldly gazing at Liam who wore a mask that covered his profile.

Hester is a very rich young master with numerous business in his grasp and he was a young man who valued honor and good reputation.

'This bastard wants me to lose face, very well let's see who will lose face after I kick your ass.' He pondered and a smile returned to his face as he stood up from the chair he was seated on and approached the platform with a smile on his face.

"I agree, now will you accept my challenge?"

Liam looked at him from under the mask and shook his head.

'You are a realm higher than I'm, 500 will not do.' Liam smirked and held up his ten fingers causing the eyes of Hester to be furrowed and his teeth was grinded as he almost began fuming with anger that burnt deeply in his soul.

'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovelB(i)n. ᴄᴏᴍ',

On the other hand was Liam, standing relaxedlyy, watching the expression on his new challenger.

"You.... fine, I accept it."

Then Liam nodded his head and took out the sword he used earlier.

He would have used the mechanism sword but the sword was way too advanced and he might be known for that and persons might trace stuffs to him. So he didn't hesitate and dragged out the sword and pointed it at Hester declaring wordlessly that the other party's challenge have been accepted.

"Wanting to fight with a human lord, not just an ordinary human lord but the young master of the Tai family, do you think he can handle young master Hester"

"I don't think so, young master is the current No 23 in silver south kingdom and I heard rumors that he was able to receive a magic artifact capable to swallowing the wing and reducing the speed of his opponent, no matter how you see this, young master Hester will definitely win."

"Hehehe, let's watch how that shameless punk get beaten to a pulp for acting so mighty when dealing with young master Hester. Didn't you see the look in his eyes when the brat demanded such huge amount of money? definitely, I'm betting all my wealth that this brat will be thrown out of the platform in just three minutes.'"

Meanwhile, at the platform two beautiful ladies stepped into the platform and gently took off the expensive coat Hester was putting on.

'Such rich brat!' Liam was envious again but not that envious, afterall, the spoilt arrogant young master you see now will be no more, ...Hehehe (Evil laughter)

"You really had the guts to make me lose face, thankfully you did not succeed, prepare yourself to face me with all you have gut." Hester said with a smile.

On both of his hands, two sword of Jet-black and snow white blades appeared.

It was the grade 3 Yin and Yang Sword, the power of the sword is Increased when they are used together.

Weapons, artifacts and magical beasts are graded from one to ten, Grade 3 weapons are definitely a rare type, in the whole silver south kingdom only twenty some persons has a Grade 3 weapon/ sword.

Hester felt so proud of himself when the spectators watched and talked about his yin and yang sword.

However, unknown to him, his opponent has a sword that was at least a 6th grade artifact.

If Liam was to bring out his sword now, not only will him feel ashamed the crowd will having add more fuel to the fire and make him so ashamed that he will have to hide his head and might even flee from silver south kingdom.

Liam brought his right hand and waved it in the mannerism of calling someone forward.

This action provoked Hester and he immediately dashed towards him with a cold look on his face as his hair fluttered due to his movement.

Liam prepared himself and took a stance, his left leg was behind while his right knee was pushed forward.

Swoosh

Hester swing his sword, Liam also did the same but not to attack instead it was done to prevent the sword coming at him with such force.

'New novel chapters are published on Novel-Bin',

Hester gritted his teeth and used a even fiercer move, this time ensuring that Liam was pushed backward and his feet almost left the stage.

"Such strength, I'm envious of it, but I can't fall to it!" Liam muttered then he leaped into the air, and waved his sword sending out two sword lights that raced towards Hester.

Hester wasn't taken aback by the sword light but only taken aback that Liam did not fall out of the stage as he have predicted because he placed too much strength in that attack and he was certain that it would overpower Liam and make him lose.

"You brat think you can win against me, Hester of the Tai family. stop dreaming, Tai sword art, flame dragon formation."

Hester sword turned to the color of flame and a very large misty energy visible to the eyes formed and materialised into a dragon that flew towards Liam.

The thing was fast but Liam was able to use a defensive spell that could only last for thirty minutes, even with that, as the flame dragon hit him he only had to depend on his sword that he pierced into the ground for balance.

Other than that, he wasn't injured at all.

"What the fuck, he was actually able to defend against the Tai family sword art, the flame dragon"

"He's really impressive but his opponent is young master Tai, he will certainly not win."

Hester was shocked once more by Liam defense.

Meanwhile, Liam had a smile hidden beneath his mask.

'The feeling of slapping famous young master on the face is.. so so amazing' Liam thought to himself, then he held his sword and twisted it in the air.

He continued twisting it that a circle was formed and the real sword could not be seen other than it's afterimages.

The circle was white, but then it started turning into the color of flame like the type he have used earlier against his opponent.

Then Liam stopped twisting the sword and held it horizontally, his eyes released a cold killing intent.

From the soles of his feet, misty energy began forming until...

Zoom...

Liam was out of there, his feet hitting the ground such that he completed almost ten steps between two seconds.

"Inferno sword art, Horizontally slash."

The technique had no name but Liam decided to name it inferno sword art, just to make it cool and make it appear to the crowd that he was really able to comprehend such a technique without calling out the name just as everyone used to.

Only when one has an innate technique or have comprehended the law of the technique will they be able to use it voicelessly.

For Liam, it was the first, a technique that came from his own creativity and the birth of the flame was from the devil of divine flame bloodline that reside in his soul.
