25 Duel (1/2)
”What's the meaning of this?” Wang Yu was quite shocked. Did this whole bunch of guards rush over here just to scare him?
The captain of the guards mechanically answered: ”So it was Lord Iron Bull! We were still wondering if some sort of hoodlum had come to the city!”
”Hoodlum? Isn't that him?” Frost Blade pointed at Wang Yu and replied.
”Hey hey hey, don't forget why I had to kill all those people just now you ungrateful little b*stard!” Wang Yu angrily scolded.
”Lord Iron Bull you have eliminated the Dusk Bandit Gang from the canyon, you are the hero of our city! The city lord wishes to meet you!” The guard captain continued.
When he heard the words of the guard captain, Wang Yu immediately understood that this whole fiasco was a result of the Twilight City merit points he earned!
”Alright, I'll find him later!”
”Mm!”
The city guards nodded their heads as they rearranged themselves into their platoon formation, returning back to the city.
Everyone one present had been thoroughly shocked by the scene they had just witnessed: ”Did you see that, the city guards actually went up to that guy to speak to him! On their own accord!”
”That's right, what's going on? I thought that group of blockheads couldn't speak?”
”Maybe it's a hidden quest? Let's go take a look!”
At this moment, everyone who had reached the same conclusion flocked towards the city guards.
”Hey, excuse me...”
The city guards showed no signs of stopping even though they had been surrounded by the players. They still wore a solemn and serious expression on their face as they continued to march unhindered towards the city gate, trampling over the players...
”That's awesome! How come you weren't faulted for murdering other players?”
Wang Yu laughed: ”It's just a coincidence. Let's keep moving, there are people waiting for us!”
”Mm!” Frost Blade nodded. He seemed very excited that Wang Yu had received what he thought was a special mission.
Once they arrived at the dojo, Wang Yu realised that there actually weren't that many players in the Quan Zhen Sect.
”This pair of good friends are Fearless and Boson!” Frost Blade pointed the Warrior and Priest in the corner of the dojo as he introduced them.
Wang Yu smiled at the pair as he nodded his head.
Boson had a very emotional expression when he saw that Wang Yu had actually come.
”This is Spring Halo, Brother Spring! You're awesome!” Frost Blade pointed at a middle-aged person wearing a pointed hat (a typical Magician equipment) and said.
”Hello Brother Spring!” Wang Yu politely greeted.
Spring Halo looked at Wang Yu and exclaimed: ”You have a very impressive appearance Iron Bull! You're not a normal person!”
”Thank you Brother Spring!” Wang Yu replied. Even though Spring Halo could be considered rather old and had a rather vulgar appearance, truth be told he was the most friendly person in the Quan Zhen Sect.
”Why's everyone talking so much b*llshit! Are we going to fight or not!” At this time, a youth angrily shouted from the top of the duelling platform in the dojo.
”That's Vainglory...” Frost Blade quickly explained.
”Oh...” After having seen Vainglory in person, Wang Yu lost his will to battle.
This youth was roughly 17 years old and still carried an air of innocence in his demeanour. Compared to those brutes from Apocalypse, he still looked like a child.
”That's no different from bullying a kid!” Wang Yu nervously told the crowd.
The crowd shook their heads: ”Just beat him up! You don't need to show mercy!”
”But…...I don't think I can hold myself back...”
One of the most basic rules of a martial artist was that he couldn't use his techniques to bully kids. Fighting Vainglory would be directly violating this rule. If word ever got out, Wang Yu would never be able to show his face in the martial arts world again.
Vainglory impatiently shouted: ”Do you dare to fight me or not? Just come! If you don't dare to fight just admit you're a coward! Then maybe this grandpa can give you a pointer or two!”
”Admit I'm a coward?” After hearing his words opponent's words. Wang Yu's prideful spirit had been ignited.
Ever since he was a kid, Wang Yu had been an unmatched genius, even in the entire martial arts world he was second to none, yet this kid in front of him wanted him to admit that he was a coward!
This stinky brat truly didn't know how vast the world was.
”Come here and let this uncle educate you!” Wang Yu shouted as he jumped onto the duelling platform.
When Vainglory saw that Wang Yu had jumped onto the platform, he immediately rushed over to attack. Not even waiting for Wang Yu to prepare himself as he launched a [Lateral Kick] towards Wang Yu.
As the saying went, when an expert decided to move anyone could tell if he was bluffing or not.
From this single attack, Wang Yu could tell that Vainglory was also using the Independent mode.
Nearly all the skills that a Pugilist had utilised his physical body as they normally did not use any weapons to fight. This led many people to think that even amongst those that used Independent mode, Pugilist's were the weakest.
For Vainglory, a Pugilist, to dare to use the Independent Mode, proved that this kid had some skill.
Starting with [Lateral Kick] to knock up the opponent, then following up with [Crushing Blow] and [Flying Knee] to deal more damage. This was one of the most common combos that Pugilist's used.
Once all these skills were chained, this would also result in an additional 100 damage.
As he looked at Vainglory's fluid movements, Wang Yu realised that this kid wasn't just all talk.
But meeting Wang Yu was probably the biggest tragedy in Vainglory's life!
