Chapter 26: Law (1/2)
”I didn't expect him to be so brutal.”
Xu Xiaoyang had a sullen expression on her lovely face, after hearing Xie Xie words. She already expects him to be brutal and ruthless, consider how he trains her and big sis Mu Xi.
'Ye Xinglang should be lucky it was only a one-time thing and not every day.'
Still, she looks around and saw the audience still recovering from the brutal beat down Tang Wulin gave her. She could only sigh at that fact and hope there isn't too much of a fierce backlash.
'Well, the goods news is this may cause his opponents to forfeit or even drop out.'
”Well good luck vice-leader.”
”What you mean good luck. Do you have no fate in me!”
”Did you not see that beatdown?”
Xie Xie face twitches from hearing Xu Xiaoyang comment. He turns to Gu Yue who was staring down hard the match with a smile.
'Sheesh, this girl doesn't want to talk to him when she's mad but still can be happy for him.'

”Your student is pretty brutal…”
Wu Zhangkong lips twitch as he heard Shen Yi comment. In all honesty, this was the first time ever saw Tang Wulin fight against a human opponent 1v1 other than him.
Wu Zhankong was confident he would win but he didn't expect him to completely crush her without his Dragon Slayer Powers and his Dragon Claw.
”I didn't expect him to be that brutal.”
”You never saw him fight?”
”In a one on one match with someone other than me, no. It would routinely be a team battle, where he tends to limit his activities and work with the team.”
Shen Yi nodded, while still recovering from the match. To say it was fight would be laughable at best.
Ye Xingland was no amateur, she was a person who was able to achieve one with the sword at her age and been training at Shrek so she could become an inner disciple.
But even with that, she was crush and it wasn't through superior martial soul, skill or spirit ring. It was all through vast superior technique and combat experience.
She felt like she is watching her master when she kept seeing Tang Wulin dismantling and destroying Ye Xinglang.
'But how! He just a ten-year-old boy. Even if he knew Wu Zhangkong all his life, he shouldn't be this good at combat.'
”I forewarned you to tell her about Tang Wulin.”
”...Just who his he?”
”Our heaven-defying monster.”
Shen Yi looks in shock as Wu Zhangkong showed a rarely seen smiles.

”Wow, your disciple sure his brutal.”
”Uh. I didn't even know he could fight like that Teacher.”
Mu Xi listen to her father, as he was talking to his teacher Duan Xuan. She would say she was shocked, but that would be lying.
'Yes! That how it feels.'
So what if she was being petty, she has been suffering months and months of abuse by that little demon. To finally see it done to someone else was truly a bliss feeling.
'Still, I am impressed by her, though.'
Mu Xi would find it hard to not let even a scream if she wasn't used to Tang Wulin beating. Yet Ye Xingland was not only able to take the beating but still refuse to drop her weapon.
'I guess that why he had a smile on his face.'
Mu Xi faces twitch as her father started hugging her while bragging about her to his teacher.
”Still my Mu Xi still the best! Already a fourth rank blacksmith at her age!”
”Keep hugging me, and I won't talk to you for the whole Skysea Alliance stay.”
”Ugh!”
Duan Xuan himself laugh at the doting father and daughter scene. Shaking his head, he been trying to poach Tang Wulin, but his stubborn student refuses to give him and Mu Xi up.
'Damg brats!'

Ye Xinglang blinks her eyes, as she struggles to get up. It was solely after trying to sit up that she realizes how much her body hurt.
'What… happened.'
”Big sister Xinglang your up!”
”Shut up fatty!”
Xu Lizihi flinches at his big sister tone, but then she turns to him and asks what happened. He begins to relay the fight between her and Tang Wulin, while she stayed silent.
'So I lost huh.'
”Big sis, don't be mad at big brother Tang Wulin for the beating he gave you!”
Ye Xinglang faces twitch as Xu Lizihi kept on talking. But he sadly wouldn't stop causing her to smack him in the head.
”Help me fatty.”
”Huh. But you're injured!”
”Aren't you the food master here, just feed me some and I should be good to move.”
”Um ok, but where are you going?”
Ye Xingland didn't say anything as she started eating one of fatty meat bun.
#
”Well, you had fun.”
'Whatever do you mean Zeref.'
”Don't give me that. You were smiling that whole match.”
'Hm, I guess you're right about that.'
”Aren't you worried you may have broken her will?”
Tang Wulin smiled at Zeref words, not saying anything for a while. He was traversing the arena to go find a place to eat.
'Zeref, people like her are the types to get stronger from a beating like that.'
”You mean she gets a power boost?”
'Not exactly. Their just sore losers.'
”Wait!”
Tang Wulin turns his head to see Xu Lizihi and Ye Xinglang trailing behind. Before Xu Lizihi could say anything, he was shoved out the way by Ye Xinglang who glared at him.
”Don't think this victory means it over.”
”I will not take this lying down. I will come back stronger to beat you!”
”So don't you dare to lose anyone until then.”
Ye Xingland stared at Tang Wulin with her eyes shining and then turn around to walk around. Xu Lizihi said goodbye and started to chase after her.
”Big sis, what was that about?”
”Big sis please answer-”
”Big sis why is their a red spec on your face? Are you sick or something?”
”Shut up fatty!”
”Big sister so mean!”
Tang Wulin didn't see Ye Xingland face specifically her cheeks that were bright red.
'Even though I lost. I am not mad but why…'
