How very despicable!
In front of the beauties, this Zhou Mu wants to use me as a stepping stone to show off? This behavior is so despicable. Even if he wanted to attract Lin Wan Er’s attention, he did not need to challenge me to a spar. And also…. after the incident at the company, her beautiful arcs keep me up every night. I cannot lose face in front of Lin Wan Er….
At that moment, I glance over at Lin Wan Er. I’m surprised when I see her looking back at me. Her cheeks turn slightly pink as she looks at me with eyes filled with resentment. In a low angry voice, she says: “Xiao Yao, you pervert….”
My heart sinks, as it becomes clearer and clearer; Lin Wan Er seems to be able to sense what people are thinking…. Could this be Mind Reading?!
…
This won’t do. I can’t lose face anymore, not in front of Lin Wan Er. To Dong Cheng Yue, I seem strong; Today, I will win!
I stand up and put down my milk tea, smiling: ”Okay. Since Zhao Mu invited me so kindly, I will join you in a spar. Let’s be careful and not injure each other…”
Zhao Mu laughs: “Don’t worry, I won’t injure you.”
I furrow my brow. These people are really egotistical. No wonder the swordplay club is just one big violent group!
Wang Ran’s eyes grow wide: “Li Xiao Yao, can you do it? Zhao Mu’s North Star Style is unrivaled among the swordplay club. Even I can’t beat him.”
I nod: ”Don’t worry!”
“Then… which weapon would you like? A bamboo sword?”
“Okay, Give me two!”
“Two?”
“Yes, two bamboo swords!”
“Ah, ok…”
…
Wang Ran personally hands me two bamboo swords. Holding them in my hand, they seem so light compared to my Xiao Hei; they’re as light as toys.
TL: Xiao Hei is Xiao Yao’s sword in real life
Zhao Mu grips his bamboo sword with both hands. His eyes are filled with confusion: “Two swords? Did you think that having another sword will make you stronger?”
I laugh a little: “It is not like that. These bamboo swords are too light. With two, I can control the speed much better. However, it does hit harder.”
“Ba!” Zhao Mu says angrily: “Then I will give you a taste of the North Star Style’s most fearsome strike!”
Holding one bamboo sword in each hand, the blades become an extension of myself. With a faint smile, I say: “You only know that North Star Style’s most fearsome strike is the strike: Killing Intentions. You probably don’t know that the North Star Style came from Japan learning China’s Tang Dynasty’s swordsmanship. You also probably do not know China’s Han Dynasty’s borderland warriors use a dual swords style!
Zhao Mu coldly says: “Dual sword style? Okay, let us see if this Dual sword style is as impressive as it sounds….”
…
At the same time, a loud noise sounds from outside of the swordplay club. Many of the girls that were watching the basketball competition decided to come over. All of them have their eyes wide open like curious little babies.
“Wow, Isn’t that guy ‘Maniac Killer’ Zhao Mu? Who is he dueling?”
“A student that I don’t know, dual swords though…. wow, he looks very handsome holding two swords….”
“Its gonna be a good show.”
…
I wrinkle my brow and whisper: “Wang Ran, could you please close the club door?”
Wang Ran nods. She quickly runs to the door but there are so many girls outside that Wan Ran can’t close the door. On the other hand, after they see showdown here, everyone will probably leave.
“Can we start? Come!” I impatiently say.
Zhao Mu takes a deep breathe and charges toward me while roaring loudly. Holding the blade with both hands, he rushes towards me with small steps. Suddenly, he quickly thrusts the blade at a weird angle, aiming at my underarm. This is the North Star Style!
Twisting my wrist, I turn over my right hand. “Pah!” I block his blade with mine. Then I lean forward and strike!
“Pah!”
Zhao Mu retreats a few steps and his complexion turns purple.
On the sidelines, the students stare on with dumbstruck eyes: “Wow, Zhao Mu’s attack was blocked? What kind of reaction speed does he have?”
I spread my two swords. With a slight laugh, I say: “Good, a blitz attack!”
“Pah!”
My sports shoes stamp on the ground and I spring forward as fast as lightning. Afterwards, the dual blades begin to dance!
“Oh….”
Zhao Mu immediately yells out. He carelessly tries to block my attacks by placing his bamboo sword horizontally in front of his chest but he could not block my attacks. The dexterity of dual blades is incomparable to a single sword and I use almost every skill I know from the Dual sword style to harass Zhao Mu.
“Pah! Pah! Pah!”
I leave behind marks on Zhao Mu’s clothes as I swing my swords. Within 3 seconds, my swords hit him at least 29 times!
…
3 minutes later…
“Pah!”
I throw both swords on the ground and turn around to look at Lin Wan Er. Smiling, I say: “Miss, let’s walk around the garden once and then go to the cafeteria for food. It doesn’t seem like we have time to go to the library.”
Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue both stare at me with their mouths wide open with amazement. Apparently, this is the first time these two girls have seen me show off my swordsmanship.
Wang Ran is more amazed by me than the two girls. She understands the basics of Dual Sword Style but what I displayed was beyond the basics. Every second, I executed 10 different attacks which is almost at the human limits. It is only natural that I had to train and train until I reached this state.
“Li Xiao Yao….”
Wang Ran runs up and grabs my wrist. A pair of beautiful eyes look up at me: “Would… would you please join the swordplay club?”
“I can’t. I just met you.”
Zhao Mu stands there disappointedly, with a hurt expression.
Slowly pulling out my hand, I give Wang Ran an apologetic look: ”Sorry, I am already in a club. That is why I cannot join the swordplay club.”
Wang Ren’s jaw drops: “What club are you in?”
I say forcefully: “Table tennis!”
“Ah?” Many expressions cross Wang Ran’s face: “Such an amazing swordsman. How can you be in the table tennis club?”
Lin Wan Er starts to laugh.
Dong Cheng Yue narrows her eyes. Looks like someone is a rising star in table tennis.
