Martial Hero Rebirth

“Complete destruction!” exclaimed Chang Sheng, making a sharp lunge forward.

A cold light shone from his spear in a sudden swing from left to right, as if a small silver dragon flew along with the blade.

The stone road trembled under Shen’s feet and deep cracks spread like a spider’s web..

Lin Yi's face cast aside his emotions. Leaning slightly, he suddenly made a dash around the enemy and delivered a piercing blow to the side.

Shen interrupted the attack mid-strike and jumped back to defend himself from the sword with his spear..

«Bam!»

Sparks flew from the blades, Shen flew back with such force that cracks spread under his every step, tearing the ground apart.

Lin Yi, on the other hand, bounced off like a feather blown by the wind and landed neatly like a speck of dust..

Apparently Chang Sheng did not control his strength and allowed it to escape when it was not needed. Lin Yi did not waste a single grain of inner strength in vain, in battle his body remained light as a moth.

The Heavenly Sword was much stronger than his worst fears. But, taking a deep breath, he suppressed his emotions.

Lin Yi grinned and lunged forward, the long sword almost touching the ground.

Taking a deep breath, Shen let out a roar and grabbed the spear with both hands to return blow with blow. The weapons collided again.

But instead of the force he expected to meet, the long sword only slid across the spear and immediately struck him in the side..

Chang Sheng felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end. The movements seemed light and helpless, but if you missed one blow, he would be pierced right through.

Again he had to defend himself with a spear, and again the sword only touched the metal shaft when Lin Yi retreated.

This time Shen was ready and launched a counterattack even before contact, but Lin Yi dived under the spear like a goldfish under a pike, and again attacked to the side.

The Changjia Spear was an excellent technique even among other supremes. Designed primarily for attack, it still provided almost indestructible protection, and in the hands of a master it also allowed for sudden retaliatory strikes.

A person with this technique resembled a hedgehog, which was unclear how to approach.

But Lin Yi maintained the calm of a hunter watching his prey. From time to time he attacked, but if it didn’t work, he immediately retreated, leaving no chance for a counterattack..

Chang Sheng turned out to be an incredibly experienced fighter. Each of his counterattacks was fatal. He did not show a hint of pity, did not make unnecessary movements, did not leave unprotected places. Even during a counterattack he did not forget about defense.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of blows rushed past. Any of them could kill and people around screamed in admiration.

Only local authorities bit their lips in anxiety.

Lin Yi turned out to be stronger and much more cunning than rumors said!

Some considered him an arrogant boy, but most saw an old and experienced fox, leaving no chance for the enemy to attack himself. Perhaps a strong opponent could force him to retreat, but people felt that even a first-class expert would not be able to injure this youth. ṙ₳NƟ₿ĘꞨ

One by one, Changzhou's power holders began to worry.

Chang Sheng was at the peak of the second class, and also possessed excellent spear technique. Since his birth, he has not seen defeat. In the entire Hangzhou region, no one could defeat him.

If only he had been born into some rich family and joined a large sect, he would have reached first class long ago. But even so he was already standing on the very brink.

And such a powerful man could not do anything with the young man who entered the fist world a year ago. People were amazed.

And time passed quickly. A stick of incense had burned out in the window of one of the houses; two experts in the city center exchanged five hundred blows.

Lin Yi seemed like a beast trying to get close to Sheng from all sides, but every attack was met with a dead defense. The spear moved as if alive.

Cast entirely from metal, it looked not just light, but almost flexible, with each of its movements silver and whistling arcs appeared, as if the image froze for another split second, marveling at the magnificent techniques.

He left no weaknesses in combat, either at close or long range..

Lin Yi took an extra step this time and peered into Chang Sheng's face.

No one wanted to show all his cards, but this time he will have to show his true strength.

The longer the battle dragged on, the more faith others in the area would have in their victory. Everyone must believe that the Heavenly Sword is invincible, then even before the fight begins they will lose.

The inner strength accelerated, Lin Yi rushed forward like a released arrow. The sword glittered with icy light, this time aiming not at the flesh, but at the spear itself.

«KLANG!»

Sparks flew with a terrible clang, Chang Sheng flew several steps away, again leaving cracks in the ground. But before he could regain his senses, Lin Yi had already caught up with him and attacked again..

Blow after blow, prick after prick, and each time the speed gets faster. Chang Sheng retreated, the stones cracked under his feet.

Ordinary people only saw afterimages; it was as if a field of silver flowers had blossomed in front of Chang Shen.

“On!” Shen suddenly shouted and his spear spun like the blades of a mill.

To the amazement of the crowd, he parried every one of the blows..

“Hmph,” Lin Yi snorted and simply stopped dodging.

The sword and spear collided heavily, Shen deflected one attack after another, destroying the road in front of him and around him. He resembled an indestructible mechanism, slowly moving forward, not caring about any blows, while his face turned red with tension and the veins appeared on his neck.

Lin Yi struck again and Sheng's throat began to bulge, as if he were holding back a large gulp of blood..

“Give up!” Lin Yi shouted as he suddenly jumped into the air and swung his punch downwards..

This time, instead of a clang, people were deafened by thunder.

Shen managed to dive back at the last moment, shielding himself from the blow with a spear, but retreated another ten steps. His face became unnaturally red and he couldn't stand it anymore..

The second class expert's mouth opened and blood sprayed out like a fountain..

Lin Yi also turned pale, but he did not suffer such severe injuries and therefore attacked again without hesitation..

Even stronger than last time.

Shen's pupils shrank and he let go of the spear.

“Stop! You are a great warrior, Lin Yi, I am not your rival.”

Lin Yi stopped the blade, jumped back a step, and sheathed it.

Straightening up, he hugged his fist with his palm and said:

“I accept this victory.”

Then, looking at the completely destroyed road, he added:

“I think you could take a few more hits, yeah?”

Chang Sheng smiled wryly and shook his head:

“I could, but why destroy the city in vain? We'd both be hurt and I'd still lose. So I admit defeat.”

Lin Yi nodded silently. He himself knew that if both of them had fought at full strength and were not shy about cunning tricks, the city would have been destroyed.

Knowing what awaited the world ahead, Lin Yi was ready to make any sacrifices and destruction. In a fight to the death, he would not dance on a small patch and would use the city as his tower and shield. Moreover, by focusing entirely on the fight, he would not waste brain resources on containing the power and would leave in his wake the same destruction as Shen.

On Crouching Tiger Hill, only third-class experts fought, and yet every building there turned into piles of rubble.

Now he could arrange a similar fight against second-class experts.

So another advantage was that the masters did not want to destroy their hometowns and therefore admitted defeat before it was too late.

Including Chang Sheng. Perhaps he would have been able to injure Lin Yi, at the cost of completely destroying the city. And still he himself would have received much more wounds.

“You deserve the title of a valiant warrior,” Lin Yi said, folding his hands again in a gesture of politeness..

Others mocked the defeated and left enemies in their path, but if possible he wanted to maintain at least neutral relations. Besides, good qualities are worthy of praise, no matter who they belong to..

And even if you forget about morality and order, this city belonged to righteous people, and not to vicious cults. No one would benefit from its destruction..

“Lin Yi, your talent is immeasurable,” Sheng said, making a polite gesture in return..

Defeat or not, this young man entered Huashan less than a year ago and has already achieved more than he has in his entire life. Such talent was admirable.

Lin Yi nodded and glanced at the others, returning his cold tone:

“Chang Sheng lost and now Changzhou belongs to Huashan. There are objections?”

Everyone bowed their heads.

Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction.

There had never been any objections, and with each victory the chance of them became less and less. Who dares to challenge someone who has already defeated twenty-four experts at the peak of the second class?

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Yi walked to the Chang family estate, when suddenly a scream was heard from behind.:

“Stop!”

He turned around not so much with irritation as with curiosity.

Did anyone really dare to speak out against him??

Everyone in the square opened their mouths in amazement. Did anyone really have the courage - or the audacity - to challenge a person who had not yet suffered a single defeat??

A fat man emerged from the crowd. With a big smile he said:

“I have some objections!”
