Chapter 780: Admit Defeat Or Not



He was from the Wild Bull Clan, born with supernatural strength and the ability to operate innate secret arts. Additionally, he had a domineering and violent aura around him that astonished the people.

“It’s over for the kid!” The servant boy’s eyes were filled with sympathy.

Niu Ben was a regular of the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena and had trampled expert after expert with his brutal means and terrifying strength.

Anyone selected as his opponent was seen as unlucky because not only would they be defeated but also be beaten until they were half-dead with broken limbs. The outcome of the battle would be tragic.

The servant was certain that Niu Ben’s previous opponents would have been dead if not for the rule of prohibiting killing.

However, the poor youngster who wasn’t popular with girls would soon become another of his victims…

The only thing he found strange was that the pure girl who came with the youngster also donned a look of pity and couldn’t bear to watch any longer.

But the pity was towards Niu Ben…

“The girl looks pretty, but she wouldn’t be so dim-witted, right?” asked the servant boy in puzzlement.

Almost at once, the servant boy’s ears were deafened by an earthshaking collision that shook the arena. Soon after that, he saw gold sparks fly before his eyes before he stumbled and fell.

“Damn it, why does Niu Ben always cause such a huge scene as soon as he steps onto the arena? Does he plan to destroy that boy in one blow?” the servant boy complained to himself. But he was filled with excitement and anticipation. He quickly shifted his gaze to the arena.

He wanted to see the tragic end of the youngster.

“Er, this…this…”

The scene in the arena almost made his eyeballs roll out of their sockets. His face became so red and flabbergasted like a duck being strangled by the neck.

In the arena, Niu Ben’s mighty body tumbled down the edge of the arena like a collapsed iron tower.

He gasped with pain.

His chest was stamped with a handprint through his torn clothes. His skin was swollen and red with the outline of five fingers and palm like it had been stamped with a red-hot piece of iron.

Everyone’s jaw dropped.

Moments ago, they had been laughing mockingly , thinking that Lin Xun was about to be trampled. Unexpectedly, Niu Ben was the one sent flying off the arena.

Moreover, he was sent flying by a casual palm strike from the youngster!

Unbelievable! Niu Ben looked so fierce and mighty with an overbearing aura that struck terror into people’s hearts.

But he tumbled to the ground in embarrassment, screaming in pain. No one could believe their eyes.

“Ah, I wanted someone to curb Big Brother Lin Xun’s arrogance, but he is going to be even more smug now. What to do...” Xia Xiaochong sighed, looking troubled, “I can only blame that bull. He was so aggressive and fierce before, but now he looks so weak.”

The servant boy almost coughed up blood.

It turns out...that the girl revealed a look of pity because she clearly knew that Niu Bun wouldn’t stand a chance!

“This is so satisfying! I finally found a rock-hard opponent! This is fantastic! This is so refreshing!”

Niu Ben sprang up on the arena with a somersault. Instead of being frustrated and furious, he looked delighted and excited, chuckling endlessly.

Rock hard…

The stupid big-mouth bull actually described me as that...

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips twitched unconsciously, and deep in his eyes, cold, dangerous intent gleamed for an instant.

Niu Ben charged forward once again like a mountain shifting. His imposing aura grew fiercer and fiercer while black lights circulated his body and waves of frightening qi burst forth.

The space shattered, and the arena was thrown into chaos. If not for the protection of the defense rune array, the hall would have taken on severe damages.

Even so, some cultivators in the distance were still terror-stricken. So strong! The Wild Bull Clan indeed possesses supernatural strength!

Bang!

However, everyone’s vision blurred for a second as a deafening crash rang in their ears. Before they knew it, Niu Ben was propelled across the air once again with a palm strike.

The blow felled him, causing the entire arena to shake. He fell face down like a toad, blood trickling down his mouth and nose, and his chest had almost collapsed from the blow.

Even the sight of it sent a sensation of pain spreading through one’s body.

Everyone was paralyzed with shock, realizing that the youngster was actually a hidden master!

They knew how powerful Niu Ben was and knew that he had mastered ancient secret arts inherited from the Wild Bull Clan. Any other Heaven Ascension cultivator would have knelt and admitted defeat long ago if they were to face him.

But Niu Ben seemed very incompetent in front of the youngster.

He had been hurled across the air twice in a row with one palm strike.

All of a sudden, everyone’s gaze changed when they looked at Lin Xun.

“Is that strong enough?”

Lin Xun was still standing tall and straight as always, and he seemed to have not moved an inch in the arena.

Niu Ben wiped the blood stains on the corners of his lips with the back of his hand, grinning. “It’s not enough, come again!”

He launched another attack, bringing out a treasure weapon. It was a giant copper fork. It dazzled everyone’s eyes as it swept across the sky and poured out a wave of divine brilliance like a waterfall.

The attack surprised Lin Xun a little. Other Heaven Ascension experts wouldn’t have been able to rise again after being so badly wounded from the two blows. However, Niu Ben was still alive and energetic and ferocious as ever.

Lin Xun drew a deep breath and mobilized some of his real strength this time. If he couldn’t completely subdue the bull this time, he would no doubt be ridiculed by Xia Xiaochong.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Niu Ben launched relentless attacks again and again, but Lin Xun knocked him to the ground every time in the most direct way, stunning the audience.

It was hard to remain calm in the face of the repeated clash.

Niu Ben gasped for breath. His clothes were torn, his muscles and bones were wounded in many places, and he looked the most tragic, but his eyes were brighter and his fighting spirit was burning like a furnace.

He madly charged forward with a violent and tyrannical aura like an enraged ancient bull as he swung his giant copper fork across the air.

Whereas Lin Xun was flawless and unwounded. His robe fluttering around him added to his calm, elegant and ethereal air.

There was a stark contrast between the two as they stood facing each other in the arena.

“Do you admit defeat now?”

Niu Ben was beaten to the floor once again, twitching violently. Some people couldn’t bear to watch him any longer.

He looked incredibly miserable. But even so, he still grinned and chuckled, “I finally met an opponent like you! How would I admit defeat so easily? Come again!”

Lin Xun couldn’t help feeling a sense of admiration. This guy’s fighting power may not be at the top of the Heaven Ascension Stage, but his ability to take a beating is unparalleled!

However, Niu Ben was still defeated in the end. He was beaten so badly that he couldn’t force himself up no matter how he struggled. Not a single inch of his body was unwounded.

“I won’t fight anymore today. I’ll come back again when I recover,” stated Niu Ben as he gasped for breath, but his eyes were still full of fighting spirit.

If hadn’t lost the strength to fight, he undoubtedly would continue to fight.

“Do you admit defeat now?” asked Lin Xun.

Niu Ben tottered up from the ground, grinning and shaking his head. “No.”

As he limped off the arena, the nearby cultivators’ faces glowed with admiration.

No matter what, Niu Ben fought till his strength was exhausted. It was very admirable that his fighting spirit was never depleted and he never admitted defeat.

“Right.” Suddenly, Niu Ben, who had stepped off the arena, turned around and looked at Lin Xun with a blazing gaze. “Although I don’t admit defeat, I have to say that you are indeed rock hard!”

Lin Xun’s face darkened. He almost stormed over to him and tore off his mouth. Can’t he speak like a normal person?!

On the other side of the arena, the servant boy’s face was overcast and dumbstruck. The battle had ended, but the result was beyond his expectation.

That’s the fierce Niu Ben from the Wild Bull Clan!

How would he admit defeat?

“Damn it, I made a mistake…” The servant boy regretted his previous disrespectful attitude towards Lin Xun so much that he wanted to slap himself hard.

He isn’t a poor nobody from the remote countryside, but a hidden powerful master!

He is equally as strong as the successors from the Four Sects and Three Clans!

A lot of whispering broke out around the arena. The battle made them realize that the unfamiliar-looking boy was a powerful expert, and it piqued their curiosity.

“Young Master, I was too ignorant before but I hope you won’t keep this in mind and forgive my mistakes.” The servant boy rushed over to the arena, putting on an ingratiating smile that was brighter than a blooming chrysanthemum. He desperately tried to make amends, hoping for Lin Xun’s forgiveness.

“Pah! That guy has no backbone. This isn’t what he said moments ago.” Xia Xiaochong spat out contemptuously.

“I’m dueling on the stage right now. I’ll talk about other things later,” Lin Xun snapped, shooting a glare at the servant.

The servant boy’s smile froze on his face. He felt his heart bleed knowing that the young master had no intention of forgiving him.

He took a deep breath and decided to use all means to make amends. His attitude became more and more humble as he said, “Young Master, according to the rules, if you continue to stay in the arena, other cultivators can challenge you. Before that, you have a quarter of an hour of resting time...”

Before he could finish, Lin Xun interrupted him, “There is no need to rest. Arrange for another opponent, I am in a hurry.”

“In a hurry?” The servant boy was stunned for a moment.

It was the first time he had heard such a unique reason to fight.

However, he didn’t dare to question Lin Xun again. He nodded his head frantically like a pecking chicken and quickly went off to arrange another opponent for Lin Xun.

Of course, Lin Xun was not in a hurry; he only wanted to earn as much aeth essence as possible within the time limit.

“I will receive double the reward for defeating Niu Ben, which is two hundred low-grade aeth essence. Then, after paying the ten percent fee to the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena, I will have one hundred and eighty low-grade aeth essence left.”

“If I make good use of time and if all the following opponents I face are around the same strength as Niu Ben, I should be able to fight ten battles in an hour. If I do well, I should get around one thousand eight hundred low-grade aeth essence in the end...”

Lin Xun formulated a plan. His eyes were alighted with joy, satisfied with his plan.

This Silver Pheasant Martial Arena was indeed a good place where he could not only hone his martial arts but also earn a generous reward!

The only thing that irritated him was the ridiculous fees charged by the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena.
