Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman
66
Finally the fight between the Ling family and the Xuan family began. On the side of the Ling family were surely Ling Tian, Ling Qian, Zhang, Huo Lin, and other powerful warriors. Meanwhile, in the Xuan family was a young swordsman, a former ranked 1st in Red Land College—Fang Chu. Not only him, but there was also Xuan Chen—the one who fought against Zhang in the first selection of the Red Land college.
“Sial, it turns out they got help from Fang family!” ling Tian said as he drew the sword. “But, we will definitely exterminate them! Attack!”
“Strike!!”
“Forward!!”
After the command of each of the squad leaders, a fierce fight began. Ling Qian and Huo Lin instantly darted forward, smashing at all the enemies before their eyes. Meanwhile, Zhang darted in the other direction, luring Xuan Chen into a fight with him.
“Ling Tian, I leave Fang Chu to you!” zhang exclaimed, still running, out of the squad.
“Ya!” Ling Tian faced Fang Chu directly in the middle of the battle.
After being far enough away from the betting area, Zhang stopped, followed by Xuan Chen who stopped a few meters in front of him. Zhang looked so relaxed seeing Xuan Chen already preparing with sturdy horses as well as pointing the sword forward.
“Finally today arrived!” said Xuan Chen, smiling widely.
Zhang coated his body with energy force, then put both hands in his pants pocket. “It turns out you are, the rank ten!”
“An honor can be remembered by you, Zhang.” Xuan Chen replied in a condescending tone. “But, I, Xuan Chen, am now ranked third in the Red Land College!”
“You got that position because I wasn't there.”
“The most important thing is the result!” Xuan Chen darted forward, attacking Zhang with a streak of sword slashes. “You must be dead today!”
Dodging the attack by stepping back, waiting for an opportunity, Zhang looked so calm. The young man was not in a hurry, but rather let his opponent feel he had won.
“How is my strength, asshole?!” Without the slightest pause, Xuan Chen swung his sword vertically and horizontally.
Zhang halted his steps, brushed off Xuan Chen's sword slash with his right hand, then gave a counterattack with a hard kick using his right foot. “Weak ...”
Xuan Chen slammed into a huge tree. “Ugh ...”
“Stand!” Slowly Zhang drew closer before Xuan Chen. “You still have an ace under your clothes, right, coward?”
“Hahaha!” Still feeling able to win, Xuan Chen stood up while laughing in satisfaction. “In the first selection back then, you managed to defeat me with a single strike, but I've tried hard to avenge you! Today is the time for vengeance!”
Although Xuan Chen let out such a powerful murderous air, Zhang looked calm, not reacting in the slightest. He put his hands back in his pants pocket when his opponent took a strange pill from behind his clothes and ate it.
“Energy power, yes?” muttered Zhang when he saw Xuan Chen coating himself with a purple-colored light. “However, the power of that false energy is only slightly stronger than the power of the element.”
“This power is more than enough to finish you off!” Xuan Chen swung his sword vertically forward. A purple-colored energy wave shot forward, aiming right at Zhang.
“I told you ...” Without the slightest trace of distress, it was enough with Zhang's right hand to crush the attack. “Fake energy power will never be able to defeat the original energy power!”
This time Zhang darted forward, launching a streak of punches forward. Xuan Chen endured all of the attacks with a sword slash, but his sword broke Zhang successfully using a bare-handed punch.
Zhang's one crushing blow broke through Xuan Chen's defense. The punch smashed into Xuan Chen's face to shreds in pieces. Xuan Chen's body fell down lying lifeless again.

In the dense shadow of the trees, a young man was seen walking leisurely while disguising the air of his existence. It was Yue Jian, moving silently in search of an enemy that sneaked into the Ling family area without anyone's orders.
Not long after, Yue Jian hid behind a tree while watching a girl slowly moving between the bushes. The girl looked very alert, but she could not figure out the whereabouts of Yue Jian, until Yue Jian appeared right in front of the girl.
“What does a seventh rank swordsman in Perguruan Tanah Merah do here?” asked Yue Jian with a flat face.
“Yue Jian ..” The girl stopped her steps. “It is precisely I who asked you, what are you doing here?!”
“That's none of your business, Shi Li.” This time Yue Jian stared intently ahead, letting out such intense intimidation. “However, if you dare to go deeper into the Ling family area, I will finish you off.”
Shi Li exhaled a long breath, replying, “It looks like you are serious.” He then observed Yue Jian for a moment. “But, I also have no grudges whatsoever with you or with the Ling.” family
“Then, what are you doing here?”
“I'm just curious. No more than that.” He turned around, walking slowly while waving his right hand. “Then see you.”
“Sorry ...” Yue Jian created three wind arrows that immediately shot out quickly at the three black-robed warriors who attacked him abruptly. “You won't be able to fool me.”
As nothing happened, Shi Li turned around and smiled at Yue Jian, “Thank you.”
“So?”
“I came here to meet you guys,” Shi Li said. “I mean, a dragon flew into the Ling family, it was very conspicuous, right?”
Yue Jian enveloped himself using energy power. The young man's eyes were sharp forward, watching Shi Li's movements intently. “If you want to fight, I will gladly face you!”
“No, no, no!” Shi Li held both hands. “I don't want to fight. I know my power limit.”
“Then what do you want?”
Shi Li lowered both hands. “I want to learn how to turn into a dragon, like Huo Lin.”
“I think Huo Lin has rejected you very often, right? Then what makes you think he'll teach you now?”
“I have information ...”
Yue Jian did not directly believe Shi Li. He was unsure whether Shi Li would sacrifice his family for personal gain.
“Is personal strength better than your own family, Shi Li?” Yue Jian made sure right from the various aspects whether Shi Li was lying or not.
“I just don't like the dictatorship of Mu Lan.” Shi Li lowered his head. “He who forces all the great families to submit if they do not want to be destroyed. And it's not just an empty threat.”
“Only for that reason do you want to sell your family?”
“The Shi family and half the Fang family fraction will cooperate with the Ling family if possible.”
