Martial Hero Rebirth

Chapter 422: Haidong's Shocks

Time passed, another three months have passed since March.

On this day in Liucheng, the farthest city from the coast in the Haidong region, under the scorching June sun, all the teahouses and bars were packed with people chatting about only one thing..

“Oh, great! I also popped in to watch the fight.?”

“Yeah. The last lord remained, it would be a sin to miss this. Ha, thirty-seven people in a row, huh? I'm betting that he's about to come for Lord Lee too.?”

“Damn the bettor. Look around, you idiot - there are twice as many people in the city as there are local residents. Everyone guessed who will be next.”

The man looked around, scratching the back of his head, and shrugged.:

“Well, how should I know, this is my first time here. And somehow I don’t care. What I'm wondering is what he'll do when the lords run out?”

“What difference does it make to you? A battle between impeccable experts, one of whom also has silver technology, is an opportunity that only comes around once... Well, okay, I'm interested too. Further, probably, the sword will only be tested on students of large sects.”

“Test the sword?”

“Did you really not know? Where have you been, brother? From the first day, even when he fought with Lord Xiu, he was simply testing his capabilities. Those who were there then say that he beat him like a child and saw what would happen..”

“Seriously? Use city lords for training? How is that...”

“Shocking, right? Ha ha ha. I went nuts myself. But, by the way, Master Lin and I are old friends, so I’m not even surprised. He is a real hero! Everyone would have as much tenacity and courage as he has.”

“Yes, you know, with silver techniques I would have more courage.”

“Haha, that's true too. Okay, let's watch the fight, maybe we'll learn something ourselves.”

“Oh, if only. I captured one fight, I couldn’t even see the movements - and how he concentrates energy so much is beyond my understanding.”

Similar conversations were heard throughout Liucheng, people eagerly discussing Master Lin's latest achievements over the past three months. And there were enough of them. It was possible to tell the rumors that circulated about him in Haidun for a whole year and not finish, because they multiplied faster.

Nobody remembered the last time such a strange man appeared!

Somewhere suddenly there was a scream:

“He has arrived! Look! Purple and gold, that's them!”

“Ha ha ha, I knew he would arrive! This maniac wouldn't stop at the last one.!”

“All to the estate, people! There's still room to stand!”

“Oh, if only it were like this every day! And then everything is quiet and smooth!”

“Dream on, fool! Liuchen is the last stop; he has already defeated thirty-seven other lords. After this, Master Lin will obviously fly to some new city to challenge someone stronger. What else can he do in Haidun??” ꞦАℕÓᛒƐᶊ

“Damn, that's true. Most likely he will fly away and remember his name. The whole world is waiting for him, not like us.”

“Instead of being sad, it’s better to enjoy the fight! There won't be another chance!”

The whole city was buzzing, joyful cries were heard here and there. Almost nothing happened in the lives of these people - except for the occasional heartbreak. And then suddenly a man appeared, challenging the city lords! He also demonstrates silver techniques and then gives invaluable advice! Well, how can you not be happy about this??

Countless fingers pointed to the sky, to a man walking through the air and his huge bird, covering the sun with its wings. He was dressed in a purple robe, with a bow on his back and a sword on his belt..

Perhaps only one person in all of Haidong dressed up in such unique clothes - Sword Master Lin Yi!

Stopping in the sky, he looked around the city and bowed, folding his hands in a gesture of politeness.

A joyful whistle and screams immediately came from below, which made him raise his eyebrows.

When did his reputation reach such heights? Why did they even love him so much, if you think about it??

On the other hand, why not love him? For many of these people he forged magnificent swords at a reasonable price. He gave a lot of advice to others when he was a blacksmith. Still others overheard the advice he gave to defeated lords. Well, the fourth were quite happy with the opportunity to watch how arrogant lords were thrown from their high towers and have fun.

After thinking for a while, he put aside his surprise. More importantly, thirty-seven victories in a row brought him mountains of experience, and not only systemic - now he understood much better the principles of fighting between impeccable experts.

As for the attention of the crowd... when did it bother him? One way or another, eyes are always drawn to those who stand out from the gray mass.

Shaking his head, Lin Yi was already opening his mouth when suddenly a green light rose from the manor.

“Sword Master Lin, right? I'm already tired of waiting! Your fame precedes you! Well, let's not delay, I gladly accept your challenge!”

Lin Yi used his slightly open mouth to say other words to hide his surprise.:

“I'm glad to see people who have not lost the will to perfection. Many would do well to follow your example..”

Lord Li smiled, but there was a slight bitterness in his gaze. Of the thirty-eight lords, many would have liked to refuse the challenge, but in the end he defeated them all. So what choice did he have??

To preserve at least some reputation, all that was left was to answer the challenge with a smile and accept defeat with it. He still had no hope of victory - he did not believe that he was superior to the other lords, especially so much.

And what to be afraid of - his reputation would not suffer from such a defeat; this monster was not interested in the title either.

Chuckling nervously, he took out the wood element spirit sword, grasped the hilt with both hands, and rushed forward like a beam of green light..

From the very first moment, he began to fight with full strength, countless green rays blossomed like leaves. There was no need to restrain himself—after all, he had no fear of accidentally killing a disciple of a major sect. Only Master Lin had to worry about not killing his opponent..

Lin Yi responded to dozens of green rays with a pair of wide arcs that swallowed the trees like a wave lifting a boat..

Over the course of dozens of battles, he managed to get used to the art of the Huashan sword, such attacks became as simple as they were tasteless for him..

Lord Li laughed sourly, completely losing his fighting spirit. Only the difference in techniques made defeating him impossible..

But he was not going to give up! There wasn't enough shame like this!

Everything within a radius of ten kilometers was shrouded in green energy - like a phantom of meadows. The sky itself trembled from the energy flowing into this area, people, who suddenly found themselves under a huge green disk, trembled in fear.

Lord Li could destroy the entire city with one attack!

How strong was Master Lin if such power didn’t even touch him??

In half a minute, a thousand blows fell on Lin Yi. Lord Lee pushed everything out of himself, hitting as fast and as hard as he could. Until he finally spent so much energy that he could hardly support himself in the air.

Sheathing his sword and clasping his hands in politeness, Lord Li said breathlessly:

“I admit defeat!”

“But you haven’t lost yet!” Lin Yi was surprised.

“Alas, this is not true. I used everything I could, but I couldn’t even touch your clothes. What is this if not defeat??”

“But I haven't even attacked once yet, no?..”

“I'm afraid I no longer have the strength to take your attack. I squeezed everything out,” Lee smiled sourly.

Lin Yi didn't know what to say. Of all thirty-eight, this man was the only one who surrendered so easily and openly.

Clasping his hands in a gesture of politeness, he made the traditional bow, whistled for Jin, and flew away with him.

“I wonder when we will see Master Lin next?” muttered one of the crowd, who sadly saw off the silhouette as it retreated towards the horizon.

Sighs were heard here and there, people began to disperse.

Haidong's greatest fun has come to an end.
