Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 207: Arena Battles (1)

Lin Xiao had heard about such technique, but he had never ever seen anyone used it. After all, those who did learn it would only use the technique when their lives depend on it. The price they have to pay for using such technique would be very big.

"Let’s go to the arena. Don’t you run away," Prince Lin Kai said in menacing tone.

"I won’t."

Why should he run when he was just facing this prince?

They all started to walk towards the arena. Several students wanted to have a bout against those at higher rank than them. After all, they didn’t believe that they were weaker than these people.

Internally, Lin Hu was observing Lin Xiao in confusion. ’Don’t you want to keep low profile.’

’Well, beating up such a prince would not prove anything. In any case, the rank 99 seems pretty good, isn’t it?’ Lin Xiao asked back.

’You...’

While the dragon was seething, Lin Xiao felt faint tug on his clothes. He looked to the side and saw Princess Lan Yi Hua looking at him with uncertain expression. It was clear that she knew he was fighting because of the insult just now.

"You don’t have to fight, it’s...."

"It’s not fine. I don’t want him to continue running his mouth. Besides, to be able to defeat him will be different than fighting against the examiner," Lin Xiao said with a grin.

Princess Lan Yi Hua was stunned. She looked at Lin Xiao with doubtful expression but chose not to comment anything anymore. While she did feel a bit restless, she also knew that she also didn’t know how to stop him from fighting.

"Don’t worry. Just wait the news of my victory."

Lin Yun arched his eyebrows. "Don’t bully him too much, Brother."

"Leave him some face."

"Yes." Sui Wenyan chose to join in. Even though she was doubtful of Lin Xiao’s chance since Prince Lin Kai was already at Foundation Establishment, she would naturally show her support to him because she was his follower.

The other three didn’t know what to say and only nodded while Fan Ling snorted. "If you don’t make sure that prince eat dirt, don’t come back."

The others looked at her helplessly.

Entering the area, Lin Xiao noticed that there were several arenas in the hall. They could use whichever one they wanted as long as it was empty. Some students were already entering some of the arenas and fought against those at higher rank.

However, the attention that Prince Lin Kai and Lin Xiao got for their battle was very minimum.

They were more interested in those at higher rank.

Swish!

Landing on the arena, Lin Xiao swept his gazes on the people not far from them. Most of them were students who chose to follow Prince Lin Kai because they were unable to follow the others. While the chance for Prince Lin Kai was lower, it didn’t mean that there were none. They might still strike gold when they least expected it.

"Ready?"

"Of course!"

"I’m ready," Prince Lin Kai said and looked at Lin Xiao with a sneer. Today, he would show this country bumpkin just how powerful he was. After today, that brat would never dare to underestimate him ever again.

The teacher who kept watch nodded. "You win when the other party couldn’t fight anymore or get out of the bounds. You can also win if your opponent decleare that he had lost."

Lin Xiao nodded. "Got it."

"Ready? You may begin!"

Swish!

The moment that the teacher said that they could start, Prince Lin Kai disappeared from his position and reappeared not far from Lin Xiao. His eyes held cruel glint as he stretched out his hand in order to strike the annoying young man in front of him.

Naturally, Lin Xiao would not let him do as he wished. The moment he got close, Lin Xiao ducked to the back and avoided the strike.

He side stepped and then punched forward.

Mountain Punch!

Swish!

The punch missed.

’this punk is quite fast.’

Lin Xiao noticed that Prince Lin Kai had kicked up. For some reason, he felt danger from the kick, so he jumped back to avoid the attack. His eyes still paid close attention to the ground where Prince Lin Kai’s legs landed.

Bam!

The vibration and the sound it made told Lin Xiao that Prince Lin Kai must have used martial arts just now. Not only that, that martial art was not an ordinary martial art but one that was capable to show greater strength after the strike.

"You can’t run," Prince Lin Kai said coldly.

Swish!

Lin Xiao evaded the next attack as his eyes were glued to the prince’s movement. Because Prince Lin Kai was already at Foundation Establishment, his movement was naturally faster than Lin Xiao. Not only that, he was also more powerful than Lin Xiao when he tried to block the attack.

’He’s already more powerful than me?’

’Stupid. DO you really think that you’re the only one who pursued the highest state of physical body? There are a lot of people who want to achieve the same thing as you and will work hard ever since they’re young. The princes are naturally gifted and with the dragon power they have, do you think they wouldn’t be able to achieve that state as long as they worked hard?’

Lin Xiao furrowed his brows when he listened to the scolding Lin Hu gave to him inside his consciousness. He agilely evaded the next attack from Prince Lin Kai while complaining to the dragon. ’Can’t you pick another time to berate me?

’Finish the battle.’

’You’re giving me order now?’ Lin Xiao was annoyed.

’That’s because you’re taking too much time.’

Lin Xiao clicked his tongue. He was taking his time so that no one would realize that he would be able to defeat the prince so easily. After evading for a few more times, he charged forward and punched faster than before.

Bang!
