Chapter 79. The Result of Carelessness (1/2)
Chapter 79. The Result of Carelessness
“Hoh? This seems interesting.”
Cho Ryu Hyang turned his head when he heard a familiar voice behind him.
He could see a smiling Gongson Chun Gi when he did so.
Cho Ryu Hyang saw his teacher’s smile, and spoke calmly.
“You’re here?”
“Yeah. I had some time, so I decided to come over. Ugh, seriously, my subordinates work me to death, I swear.”
Cho Ryu Hyang smiled a little, and thought to himself.
‘As expected…… he didn’t notice.’
When one comprehends the Moon Edge Blade Technique, the user’s senses become heightened.
Cho Ryu Hyang could feel everything around him just by closing his eyes.
But in front of teacher, his powers could be said to be nothing.
A person who surpassed everything.
The one person who everyone in the church admired.
This was Gongson Chun Gi, the strongest man in the world, Cho Ryu Hyang’s teacher.
“So, who do you think will win?”
When his teacher, who decided to take a comfortable seat right next to Cho Ryu Hyang, asked a question, Cho Ryu Hyang made a serious face.
To Cho Ryu Hyang, who didn’t know much about martial arts so far, the martial prowess of the two seemed to be the same.
‘But…….’
Cho Ryu Hyang thought a bit, then turned to Un Hui.
The Faultless View of The World.
He could see that Un Hui was clearly stronger than No Jin Nyung with that.
Gongson Chun Gi nodded when he followed Cho Ryu Hyang’s gaze.
“Did you see that with your Godly Eyes?”
“Yes.”
“You saw well. That thing’s pretty useful, isn’t it?”
Gongson Chun Gi took out a fruit from his clothing, and handed it to Cho Ryu Hyang.
“But then again, Un Hui wouldn’t be able to win that easily.”
Crunch–
When Cho Ryu Hyang took a bite out of the fruit in his hand and nodded, Gongson Chun Gi spoke.
“With such a small power difference, the one who uses more petty tricks would be the one to lose. They should both know about that. That’d mean that both of them would have to go all out……. No Jin Nyung is more suited for doing that.”

The moment after Gongson Chun Gi finished talking, No Jin Nyung made his move.
It was an explosive movement.
After closing in instantly, No Jin Nyung stepped on the ground with great force, then kicked upwards.
“Ora!”
Kwang–!
The foot that was on the ground, the balancing foot.
The strength contained in that foot alone was so great, the ground cracked and broke to pieces in an instant.
It was a simple movement that did not contain any profound techniques, or tricks hidden inside.
But because of that fact, the strike contained the nonsensical power that No Jin Nyung had in his body.
Un Hui observed No Jin Nyung’s attack quietly, then dodged the strike with minimal movement and closed in on No Jin Nyung.
He had dodged No Jin Nyung’s attack with a hair’s breadth.
It was something that couldn’t be done if one did not have confidence of winning.
When No Jin Nyung saw Un Hui’s move, he smiled in glee.
‘I win!’
No Jin Nyung specialized in close combat.
In other words, he was most skilled in unarmed combat.
Because he had no weapons, the skills he could show when he gets closer to his opponent would become more complex and versatile.
Like now.
‘Eat this.’
He didn’t know why Un Hui was trying to get close to him, to be honest.
No, he wasn’t even interested in what Un Hui was thinking.
He would never lose in close combat.
Knowing that much was enough, wasn’t it?
No Jin Nyung did not try to take back his kick. Instead, he used that foot as an axis, and made a large turn mid-air.
Midair spin kick.
It was the Spinning Wind Kick (旋風脚).
When Cho Ryu Hyang saw this, a small gleam of amazement appeared in his eyes.
‘It’s natural.’
The first attack had failed.
But the moves that followed the first attack didn’t have any awkward movements in it.
It was almost as if No Jin Nyung had expected the first move to fail.
Right then, Gongson Chun Gi, who was watching the battle with Cho Ryu Hyang, clicked his tongue.
“He’s an impatient one.”
Who was he referring to?
Before Cho Ryu Hyang could even think more, Un Hui made his move.
‘I saw that guy’s movements in the past.’
Un Hui looked at No Jin Nyung with calm eyes, then moved his body like a tree branch swaying in the face of a strong wind.
Vuun—!
The sound of the wind in his ear was quite fierce.
But Un Hui had already gotten out of the range of No Jin Nyung’s attack with just this movement.
‘Just once.’
He had seen No Jin Nyung’s kick once, when Cho Ryu Hyang fought No Jin Nyung. That was enough.
From just that one kick he saw in the past, Un Hui was able to analyze the fighting style, and read No Jin Nyung’s movements.
Un Hui.
He was a genius of martial arts, as well as an expert of the harmonious stage.
A small glint of light appeared from Un Hui’s sleeve, and a dagger slid out.
It was Un Hui’s most favored weapon.
The Small Crimson Sword (丹紅小劍).
Paa—!
A small red light appeared from the dagger that streaked through the air.
No Jin Nyung frowned, and jumped back.
“You…….”
No Jin Nyung ground his teeth, as he limped.
His entire foot was a bloody mess.
Un Hui had cut apart just the skin, avoiding all the muscles on No Jin Nyung’s leg.
Un Hui decided not to attack. Instead, he began to talk.
“I could’ve taken your entire foot.”
Un Hui was suggesting that they stop there.
There was no point in fighting any more than this.
No Jin Nyung ground his teeth.
He couldn’t refute Un Hui’s words.
But wasn’t it too unfair to just end a battle like this?
‘I became careless.’
He didn’t think about what weapon un Hui used.
He should’ve assumed that Un Hui used daggers when the man closed in on him.
‘But even so, he actually managed to pierce the Heavenly Demon Technique?’
The dagger seemed to be quite precious.
His leg was trained to the point of being able to crush steel with just pure strength.
The dagger was able to cut through No Jin Nyung’s leg like tofu. That dagger was definitely not normal.
No Jin Nyung bit his teeth.
“If you can take this one strike, I’ll admit defeat.”
His pride prevented him from admitting defeat.
Un Hui frowned.
“We have to move out into Sichuan tomorrow. You are aware of this, right?”
“I know, I know!”
