Chapter 125 - Neo Martial Art—Descending Mind Strike (2/2)

Qin Fen sneered with his lips without end. He took a step forward with a foot to heavily stomp onto the ring. He explosively raised his right arm, the action akin to an ancient hammer of war, and he ferociously smashed the body of the Heaven Scorcher Halberd. Leafsky felt the exact same sensation as last time when he fought Qin Fen. His arms were blown away by the heavy force on the halberd, and the Sole Energy of Time Immemorial he gathered inside his body was nearly dispersed away. The rotation of the Heaven Scorcher Halberd stopped, and the halberd escaped his hands.

Qin Fen grabbed the Heaven Scorcher Halberd and pulled back hard to once again seize away the halberd.

Leafsky reacted the same as last time. He was stupefied once again. He clearly had eaten a Berserker Pill this time, causing his strength to increase explosively. How in the world did the situation unfold exactly the same as last time?

In Leafsky’s moment of daze, Qin Fen arrived upon his opponent. Back then he had used the Jitae Iron Hammer of Neo Taekwondo. Today he made no changes at all as he heavily pulverized Leafsky’s skull to pieces.

Puff. Crack. Crack…

The Sky Battle Net revealed the same realistic scene as last time once again. Leafsky’s skull was smashed alive into his chest by an enormous force for the second time.

Qin Fen stood in place, his aura of power overflowing. His eyes glowed like lightning, and they swept over everyone of the Certain Victory Sect. “Where is my Dragon Hall’s sign?”

The disciples of the Certain Victory Sect were all stupefied by the series of the firm and fierce moves Qin Fen had unleashed just now. Not a single one of them could speak.

A long while passed before a disciple of the Certain Victory Sect whispered. “Sir, your sign is already long gone. We don’t have it. The day before yesterday, after our sect master beat your sect in a sect-challenge, our sect lost in a sect-challenge. They didn’t just take away our sign. They even took away your sign.”

“What?” Qin Fen turned to look at his comrades outside the door.

Zhang Xiangyang raised his head to look a the spot where the Certain Victory Sect’s sign ought to be hanging from. Indeed, no such sign existed there.

Qin Fen let out a heavy sigh. For the sake of reclaiming his sign and avoiding bankruptcy, he could only ask one more time. “Who beat your Certain Victory Sect in a sect-challenge?”

“Thunder… Thunder Mountain Villa… They’re just next door….”

Qin Fen turned around and walked out of the Certain Victory Sect. He gazes down the long street, and an unclear premonition suddenly arose in his heart. This was an area where fierce fights often occurred. The Thunder Mountain Villa couldn’t have lost their sign too, right? If this was the case, things wouldn’t be so bad that Qin Fen would have to challenge the entire street, right?

————-

Though sects like the Certain Victory Sect may not number ten thousand in Hell City of Artificial Satellite Number Four, there were eight thousand of them. How did they exist and grow? How were we able to obtain and accumulate a bit more points? They had been here long enough that sect-challenges, seizing signs, and taking signs were already common occurrences for them.

It was unknown just how many sects disappeared this way amidst struggle every day. It was unknown just how many sects passed the test and entered this stage of seemingly endless war.

Qin Fen stood before the door of the Thunder Mountain Villa. Here was a pair of lion statues, around the same height as a person, and two pillars thick enough that a man could barely put his arms around them. They formed what appeared to be an imposing and classical entrance. There was indeed some correlation between the name and its appearance.

Qin Fen sucked in the fact that he only got a few points from beating the Certain Victory Sect in a sect-challenge, yet he was unable to retrieve his sign. There was a lesson to be learned from this, and Qin Fen specifically raised his head to look to see if there was a sign hanging above the door.

Thunder Mountain Villa. The golden letters and its contrast with its red background added much to its grandeur.

Zhang Xiangyang had quickly disappeared after Qin Fen had beat the Certain Victory Sect in a sect-challenge. He logged back in and reappeared by Qin Fen’s side at this time. He quickly said, “I have found a bit of information on the Thunder Mountain Villa through the forums. It’s quite a coincidence now that I think about it. This villa’s leader, Fiery Thunder, is also a four-star martial artist. Aside from him, there is also a Vice-Villa Master. Aqua Thunder is also a four-star martial artist. The mountain villa was forced to dissolve thirty-five days ago because someone took their sign and they weren’t able to take it back within the time limit. The reapplied to form a sect thirty days ago and were successful. They re-founded….”

Qin Fen began to regret founding Dragon Hall a little. The risk factor in this investment was far too high. He really didn’t know if he could earn any profit was such a high-risk investment.

Zhang Xiangyang continued and said, “Fiery Thunder and Aqua Thunder both cultivate in the neo martial art Descending Mind Strike.”

The neo martial art Descending Mind Strike? Qin Fen’s leg, which had just stepped out, stopped in midair. He had heard rumors of the neo martial art. Not only was it extremely expensive, but there were harsh conditions in cultivating it.

Though Qin Fen had watched over a thousand fights, he had never seen someone use the martial art Descending Mind Strike. Hearing such information suddenly made him interested in gaining some first-hand experience.

The two arrived before the red door, and Qin Fen politely knocked using the copper ring handle of the door.

This was not the Certain Victory Sect that had taken Dragon Hall’s sign in a sect-challenge. There was no need to breaking the opponent’s door to vent any anger in his heart.

If possible, Qin Fen hoped to ask and get back his sign without a fight.

“Coming. Coming.”

The door made a sound when it was opened. The sound was like a painful moan, as if this door would be damaged at any moment.

“Oh? So many people.” The person who opened the door had his expression quickly change from happiness to a caution that brimmed with animosity. “What are you guys up to?”

Qin Fen looked behind him. Practically his entire company of comrades had followed behind him. Such a situation didn’t appear to be of the friendly visitation no matter how one looked at it. Instead, it was more like that of the criminal underworld dropping by for some talks.

“Hello.” Qin Fen was affected by the situation. He cupped a fist in his other hand and said. “I am Thirty-Six Hours of Dragon Hall. I have a matter I wish to discuss with the two villa masters of Thunder Mountain Villa.”

“Two villa masters?” The complexion of the person who opened the door turned even darker. “How do you know that we have two villa masters?”
