*Clink…Clink…Clink…
The sound of weapons clashing reverberated in Kingstrie Lake.
Even though Xiao Tian was fighting against a martial artist at the low-level grandmaster stage, but he could fight his enemy on an equal footing.
Dan was startled.
Sure, he knew Xiao Tian was a powerful martial artist, but he was much stronger than he thought.
Dan was not an ordinary martial artist because he had gained insight about battle instinct and could use the energy of heaven and earth.
Was he annoyed?
No!
From his point of view, fighting a strong martial artist was more exciting because fighting against weak ones would bore him.
This was the main reason why he told Xun to fight Xing Juzong because Xiao Tian was stronger than Xing Juzong.
Like Dan, Wu Lei and the others were also startled.
'He can fight Dan on an equal footing?'
Previously, they thought Xiao Tian would be defeated in less than ten moves, but they were wrong.
They were utterly wrong because Xiao Tian could fight Dan on an equal footing.
"Interesting! Interesting! Fighting against a powerful martial artist is really exciting." Dan attacked Xiao Tian while laughing happily.
He was pleased.
He was delighted because he could fight against a powerful martial artist like Xiao Tian.
As Xiao Tian was fighting against Dan, he stole glances at Xing Juzong and Qiao Luli. Xing Juzong did not have the upper hand in the fight, so it was challenging for him to win.
'Will there be more martial artists coming to this place?'
Dan was much stronger than all the enemies he faced until now, so Xiao Tian knew that he could not defeat Dan quickly.
Dan stopped attacking Xiao Tian when he noticed what he was doing. "Why don't you focus on the fight? Are you worried about that kid?"
Xiao Tian returned his attention to Dan. "Let's finish this fight quickly."
He was afraid that there would be more enemies coming to Kingstrie Lake, so he wanted to finish the fight quickly.
"Oh! You want to finish the fight quickly. Come, I'm ready." Dan did not attack Xiao Tian; instead, he waited for Xiao Tian to attack him.
*Inhale…Exhale…
Xiao Tian absorbed the energy of heaven and earth into his body.
He wanted to finish the fight as quickly as possible, so he decided to use his trump card.
Battle instinct!
If he used his secret technique while in battle instinct mode, he believed he could defeat Dan quickly.
Instead of feeling afraid, Dan was excited. "Oh, battle instinct?! I can do that too!"
Like Xiao Tian, he also absorbed the energy of heaven and earth into his body.
His hair danced wildly as the energy of heaven and earth entered his body.
Boom!
A terrifying aura burst out of his body, and his power increased drastically.
Wu Lei, Huang Hu and Tan Zemin were not shocked when they found out that Dan could use battle instinct because they already knew about it.
They were surprised because Xiao Tian could use battle instinct too.
Xiao Tian was still young and only a martial artist at the Master stage, so one thing suddenly appeared in their minds after they found out about it.
Xiao Tian was a candidate to be the Ruler!
"I had suspected he was a candidate to be the Ruler after hearing his words but I was not one hundred percent sure earlier." Wu Lei uttered, "Now that I know he has gained insight about battle instinct, I believe he is one of the people who are loved by the heavens."
Previously, Xiao Tian said he reached the high-level master stage in only four years.
Wu Lei, Tan Zemin and Huang Hu did not believe him earlier, but now they were starting to believe it because the candidates to be the Ruler were people who were loved by the heavens.
The rules for ordinary martial artists did not apply to them, and their accomplishments could not be attributed to logic.
It would not make any sense, and it would sound like bullshit if they did that.
After all, they could achieve something that would be impossible for ordinary martial artists to achieve!
Huang Hu clenched his fist.
Was he afraid of Xiao Tian?
No!
He even would challenge Xiao Tian to fight him if the opportunity arose.
He was the most talented young man in the younger generation, so he would prove to Xiao Tian that he was a powerful martial artist.
*Clink…Clink…Clink…
Xiao Tian and Dan moved at an incredible speed.
Xiao Tian took one long step back and changed his position into an Iai stance.
His intention was clear.
He wanted to use his secret technique!
"What is it this time? A secret technique?" Dan changed his position to a defensive position because Xiao Tian would attack him. "Come. Let me see your secret move."
Xiao Tian's eyes gleamed with terrifying light, and he was ready to attack Dan.
'Moon style sword of drawing techniques- fifth form: one hundred deadly slashes.'
He rushed toward Dan and attacked him continuously.
*Slash…Slash…Slash….
His attacks were fast and full of power.
The falling leaves were sliced cleanly in half, and the small flowers on the ground slowly flew into mid-air.
Xiao Tian's movements were fast, to the point it created wind around him.
At this moment, Tan Zemin, Huang Hu and Wu Lei widened their eyes in surprise.
'The secret techniques of the Moon Sword Martial Arts School?!'
They found it hard to believe what they were seeing because they believed the Moon Sword Martial Art School had been destroyed.
'Who is he? What is his relationship with Moon Sword Martial Arts School? Is he the remaining disciple?'
Countless questions appeared in their minds.
"Village head, we have to ask him about this later." Tan Zemin uttered.
"I will do that later." Wu Lei agreed.
*Clink…Clink…Clink…
Dan could not avoid all of Xiao Tian's attacks because his attacks were fast and deadly.
'Whoa! This secret technique is amazing!'
Dan was a battle maniac, so he still laughed happily even though he was showered with Xiao Tian's deadly attacks.
His green T-shirt had become red now.
Blood kept coming out of his wounds.
If he were an ordinary martial artist, he would have been dead by now because Xiao Tian's attacks were so terrifying.
Bang!
Dan finally fell to the ground because his legs could not support his body anymore.
Was he feeling depressed?
No!
Was he angry because a young martial artist defeated him?
No!
Was he begging for his life?
No!
This was what excited him.
This was the reason why he loved martial arts world so much because no one knew what would happen to them.
They could die fighting old martial artists, or they could die fighting against young martial artists.
Anything could happen in the world of martial arts!
Xiao Tian instantly stopped using battle instinct to save stamina.
Since there was fifteen percent of the energy of heaven and earth in his martial arts points, he would still be fine as long as he did not use battle instincts for ten seconds.
After all, his limit for now was ten seconds.
"Haha. It was a good fight, young man." despite knowing death was right before his eyes, Dan still laughed happily. "I did not regret it."
