Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

After thrashing the second disciple to his heart's content, he threw him out of the ring as well, eliminating him from the match.

Turning his gaze to the horrified female disciple, he smiled evilly before moving towards her with slow steps.

"No No No! Please let me go *cry* I'm sorry, I'm sorry for running my mouth earlier! Please have mercy!" She screamed in horror, begging for mercy from Ashen.

However, her pleas fell on deaf ears as Ashen grabbed her by the collar before raising her in the air.

Caressing her red lips with his finger, he asked with a playful smile: "You sure likes to run your mouth, right? Calling me a traitor and such. Not even showing me a bit of courtesy. You must've thought you were in some high position to treat me like that!"

"N-No, Young Master, I was in the wrong. I apologize, please spare this lowly wench!" She pleaded as hard as she could with tears flowing down her cheeks nonstop.

Ashen, wiping her tears gently, softly spoke: "Don't cry, It will ruin your beautiful face. I'm sure many men pursue you in hopes of courting you, right? It won't be good for them"

The female disciple nodded before trying to stop her tears, however, her horrified expression gave her away, displaying how terrorized she was right now!

"Now, Please let me go, Young Master!" She implored after stopping her tears from coming down but the terror in her eyes was visible even now!

"Huh? When did I say I'd let you go? You have to face the consequences for your actions, otherwise, it'd reflect badly on me. People will say I left you without any punishment while I thrashed the previous male disciples. They will suspect that I treat women differently from men when they offend me! It'd not be good for my reputation, since I am a firm believer of gender equality!"

Hearing his words, her eyes widened in fear, noticing the raised hand and his menacing smile.

Ashen grabbed her arm before breaking it without any change in his expression.

"AAAAAAAArrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh!"

She bellowed in extreme pain, wriggling her body in hopes of getting out of his grip, however, Ashen's expression didn't change as he broke her another arm.

"AAAAAAAArrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh!"

Once again she screamed out loud, wriggling even more in struggle, her eyes were going up and down in her sockets.

"Next, for your impudence against me, I'll take your most precious thing!"

Ashen declared before conjuring Phoenix Flame Fist and thrashing her face.

Boom!

"AAAAAAAArrrrrrrrrrr!"

Ashen knew he could not kill her so he controlled his strength just so she would not accidentally die.

The scorching flames from his fist began to burn her skin, increasing the pain even more.

Her teeth began to fly out, her face began to deform and her skin, burning and giving out a burnt smell of flesh.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

After some more attacks, even her hair had burned down, all her teeth were broken, however, Ashen knew that she would be healed after taking some medicines of this world, so he injected a slight amount of sword qi under her skin.

Now whenever her face would heal, this sword qi will activate and cut her face's outer skin again, unless it is removed by some powerful cultivator.

The female disciple had fallen unconscious, and feeling that there was nothing else to do, he threw the unconscious woman out of the ring.

As soon as he did this, he noticed the gazes of everyone.

Most were terrified, some carried pity for the girl, while some were of disgust.

He ignored these gazes and left the ring before going back to his original seat beside Veli and Ling Yun.

His ring was the fastest to finish and all the other rings were yet to have a winner.

"Hahaha, Feng Xue, you have taught your disciple well, I am impressed" Chen Lao praised in sarcasm. He knew Feng Xue didn't like what Ashen just did and therefore, he just played around with her.

Feng Xue also understood his intentions as she calmly said: "Please keep your remarks to yourself, Chen Lao. Nobody asked for your opinion on the matter. I'll take care of my disciple my way!"

Chen Lao just shrugged in response before expressing his desire: "Whatever Feng Xue, But I'd like to talk to Ashen after the tournament if you don't mind"

"I mind alright!" She thought in her mind before replying to him with a smile: "Let's discuss this matter after the tournament!"

Chen Lao simply nodded before trying to find an interesting ring that would entertain him.

Meanwhile, Ashen was sitting in silence as Veli and Ling Yun kept quiet, not even daring to look at him.

Ling Yun thought of Ashen as a kind man but what she saw right now just confused her.

Which was the real Ashen?

The ruthless one that she witnessed right now, or the one who kindly saved her from Mo Chen?

Veli was also surprised to see his ruthlessness. He made the female disciple unrecognizable and for the innocent and pure Veli, that scene was too much.

Ashen noticed their weird behavior as he sighed and explained to both of them in his gentle voice: "Sigh... look you two, what I did there had a reason. I'm sure you two weren't able to hear what happened between us but those three disciple betrayed me on the ring. Instead of helping me, they insulted me, calling me a weak first-stage nascent soul cultivator!"

"Then they praised Vi Ling and said that he was more deserving to win the match and I should help him win, instead of trying to win myself. Saying that they left me alone. Think from my perspective, shouldn't I feel angry about this whole situation? I had to even resort to acting injured to win this match. Don't you that would infuriate any prideful cultivator?"

Forging this whole lie, he displayed as if he had no choice. He was a human after all!

Veli nodded as she consoled: "I understand Brother Ashen. Anyone would feel angry about being treated like that. When I was betrayed, I also felt so bad and angry. You must've lost control due to your anger and emotions!"

She remembered the feeling that she felt when she was betrayed by the two female disciples to save themselves and let her get kidnapped.

Ling Yun also understood his feelings: "I'm sorry master, I doubted you. Seeing you like that I was afraid of you and forgot that you are also human. You can also give in to impulses. After hearing your side of the story, I don't feel that bad for them anymore!"

She smiled before glancing at Mo Fan's ring, He was about to get eliminated and her eyes widened in horror.
