THE MARTIAL GOD
Chapter 22: Arms for the arms



“The man was very brave. He actually dared to speak back to the Elder. ”


"He's a crazy person who acts recklessly. He seems to be tired of living. ”


The crowd discussed loudly looking with eyes full of mercy. They obviously didn't think Lin Feng was brave enough to directly face the Elder.


In the Continent of the Nine Clouds, it was a period of great prosperity for the Sect. The sect was so powerful that it could almost call itself a nation. They can bring peace or destruction wherever they go without anyone winking. Within the Sect there was fierce competition for power. The hierarchy is very strict. First, there were Ordinary disciples and Elite disciples who were the seedlings within the sect. Then there were the Ordinary Elder and the Great Elder. Ordinary was the lowest rank whether it was an elder or a disciple. Each had their own part to play within the sect and no one opposed the hierarchy.


Lin Feng was an Ordinary disciple and that was all. Between him and Mo Xie, the difference in status; within the hierarchy of the Sect was huge. If Mo Xie wanted Lin Feng to live, then he would live, if Mo Xie wanted Lin Feng to die, then he would die. This is the difference between them.


Mo Xie was surprised and embarrassed because Lin Feng had directly spoken against him and made him look stupid.


"Hou Qing, is going against the Sect Elders a crime?" Mo Xie said as he intensely looked at Lin Feng and did not move at all.


“Dating against an esteemed Elder, is the highest crime and he must be expelled from the sect. He should have made his cultivation crippled for offending such a highly respected elder and then his position in the sect was revoked. "Said Mo Xie.


How could Hou Qing not understand what Mo Xie meant? How could he miss such a great opportunity?


''Elder, Hou Qing thought that Lin Feng was guilty of all the crimes he had charged with, He had to cripple his own cultivation and had to be expelled from the sect. "He said with a wry smile.


“No need, he has worked so hard to gain very few skills, we must pity his miserable cultivation. Just cut off one of his arms and then you can get him out of the sect. '' Mo Xie said in a generous tone as if he was generous to Lin Feng.


"really cruel. "Lin Feng hated him. He thought Mo Xie was unfair. It was at that moment that Mo Xie had been added to Lin Feng's list and as long as Lin Feng lived Mo Xie's blood would finally spill. Lin Feng was accused of many crimes; he would be expelled from the Sect no matter what. He would instantly be given to Lin Qian as a gift. He was afraid that Lin Qian and the creepy young man would not let him live if they caught him. They had clearly come to take his life.


Actually, that was what Lin Feng anticipated. Since they had sent the Elder after him, the situation was already hopeless. He would die if he complied, he would die if he refused.


“On the path of cultivation, those without natural strength and talent will die. The sect was also unreliable and could no longer be trusted. "Lin Feng's heart was like a mirror. This world, everything that has happened, the thing you can count on is your own strength. This moment also reinforced Lin Feng's concept of this world, an Elder wanted to release his arm and remove him from the Sect; based on false accusations, but that didn't matter.


Lin Feng glanced at Nan Gong Ling. So far the patriarch of the Sect has not said a word. He did not want to be a part of what was happening and thus distanced himself.


“Everything needs natural strength and talent. Right now, I am not strong which means I need to uncover my true talent. "Mind Lin Feng fast. "If there's no solution, then I should reveal what I did in the Precipice of Zhangu (The Cliff of the Precipice)".


When he made the drum beat, two Sect protectors had appeared and personally accompanied him back to the Sect. Lin Feng still had doubts because the test he had gone through was easy. The exam he had passed because he initially thought it wasn't easy. He had fooled himself into thinking it was easy because of the Protector's kindness.


At that moment, Hou Qing was already in front of Lin Feng with evil intentions. Many people looked at them. Even some of the great Elders watched with disdain at the execution of an ordinary disciple. Hou Qing was feeling nervous and excited at the same time. It was a great opportunity for him to show his skills to the Elders.


“Piece of trash, you can cut off your own arm. There's a big difference between my strength and yours. I don't think you're worth fighting for. '' Said Hou Qing in an arrogant tone.


Lin Feng looked at Hou Qing's sparkling eyes and felt irritated. Hou Qing did not have a strong personality. To one of the best Ordinary disciples, he was just a weakling.


"I'd rather see how you plan to take my arm. '' Said Lin Feng while unsheathing his sword and holding it firmly in front of him. He stood quietly and did not try to move even a little from where he had originally stood. He felt like a mountain that could not be moved, he was not afraid anymore.


“Haha, if it should be like that, then I will show the elders how you are truly worthless. '' Said Hou Qing who clearly knew Lin Feng would not cut off his own arm. A moment ago he had humiliated Lin Feng and made himself appear compassionate which would have a great impact on the elders.


“Dancing Wind: Agility Technique. ”


Hou Qing disappeared in an instant. Wind Dancing: Agility Technique. He had mastered his agility technique perfectly. His movements were so fast as if he was dancing on the wind.


“Mean disciple Hou Qing was among the top ten ordinary disciples. His dexterity technique was incredible for someone within an ordinary disciple. How could Lin Feng compete with him? "


“The man can still stand and look calm. He was looking for death, this fight was over. ”


When Mo Xie saw Hou Qing's agility technique, he smiled confidently. It seemed like Hou Qing's strength had increased again. He hoped that Hou Qing would be able to become one of the five Ordinary Sect disciples at the beginning of the next year so that Mo Xie as his teacher would also gain a reputation.


Whether Hou Qing could defeat Lin Feng or not, Mo Xie never considered that a reasonable question. Lin Feng was only at the eighth Qi layer. He predicted that Lin Feng would only be able to make three moves before Hou Qing took his arm, without Lin Feng not being able to see his movements.


Among the people present, unfortunately it seemed like there was only Lin Feng who believed that he would win, everyone was ready to see Lin Feng's blood. He stretched out his sword with only one hand and he stood motionless like a mountain. Hou Qing was extremely fast and did not stop dancing from one side to the other around Lin Feng.


At that moment, a strong whistling wind appeared and Lin Feng's robe was like a flag in the wind. His long hair was unraveling in all directions, yet he remained motionless. Suddenly, Hou Qing's silhouette disappeared again.


“It finally. The dexterity technique of fellow disciple Hou Qing was too outstanding even for an elite disciple. ”


The battle had not even really begun that the crowd had already come to a conclusion.


Everyone could only see that Lin Feng had closed his eyes. He felt calm and his robe was still blown away by the wind created from Hou Qing dancing around him. His breathing was stable and his heart was calm. Suddenly, he stopped breathing and only focused his entire senses on his opponent's current location.


Lin Feng's sword suddenly moved. His sword danced on the wind as if mimicking Hou Qing's skill. She looked graceful and nimble with only calmness on her face.


"AAAHHH" a loud scream sounded from above Lin Feng's head. Suddenly an oppressive energy filled the atmosphere and shocked many onlookers.


"Too weak"


Lin Feng had only said these two words. His sword is still shining and clean. Right after, the entire crowd saw blood splashes in all directions.


The entire crowd was gasping in surprise. What they saw was unimaginable.


Hou Qing could not even retaliate against Lin Feng. He has lost. It was an easy victory for Lin Feng, he had cut off one of Hou Qing's arms in one strike during Hou Qing's agility technique.


"How is that possible?"


"How did Lin Feng do that?"


shouted some ordinary students. They were very surprised especially since many of them had heard of Lin Feng's reputation and that he was called a piece of trash by many ordinary disciples. How could he cut off one of Hou Qing's arms in one strike with so little effort?


All these ordinary disciples did not see clearly how Lin Feng had attacked but the Elite disciples had all seen very clearly. Lin Feng had been so quick to use his sword that he had managed to borrow strength from the wind and cut off Hou Qing's arm, to many onlookers it seemed that it was actually the wind itself that cut off the arm before the sword even reached it.


"A "sword that can fuse with the wind and borrow its power. Does Pavilion Xing Chen have such a sword skill? "Ask Nan Gong Ling because this was the first time in his life he had seen such a thing. Lin Feng's beautiful swordplay It really could be defined as perfect. He did not use any unnecessary force in his attacks. He followed the wind and cut off one of Hou Qing's arms. This was Lin Feng's exact goal as if he wanted to take Hou Qing's life, he could do that in one hit before anyone could react


Lin Feng didn't practice a certain skill for his sword to fuse with the wind. It was just the insight he had gained when he was at the Cliffs of Zhangu, he realized that the sword, the sky as well as all the things in creation, all had usable power. The sword has the power of a sword, the wind has the power of wind. He had just used that wind power. He followed the wind with his sword which had created a fusion between sword and wind then cleanly cut off his opponent's arm.


"Hasn't he been using wind power?" Nan Gong Ling asked considering the possibility. But he immediately rejected the idea because Lin Feng was only at the eighth Qi layer, how could he understand and learn how to use that wind power?


A Cultivator of the Qi layer could not use the strength of the elements. Only Cultivators who had reached the Ling Qi layer and some geniuses were able to use elemental strength. If a Cultivator of the Qi layer wanted to use that power, he could only do that using his soul power. A Cultivator could use strength just by using his spirit but during that fight, Lin Feng did not release his spirit at all.


“Pieces of trash it becomes strong. No wonder he went crazy. But as far as I know, that piece of trash as before, is still a piece of trash. That's not going to change today. '' Thought Lin Qian who had seen Lin Feng cut off her opponent's arm in one slash and one attempt. He was at the Ling Qi layer and his spirit became stronger and was on the verge of awakening. He had the universal spirit of ice and fire. A small piece of trash, Lin Feng, was no match for him.


Mo Xie looked extremely embarrassed at that moment. He had pointed at Hou Qing to cut off Lin Feng's arm and didn't think Lin Feng would cut off any of Hou Qing's arms easily in a single strike. It was as if he had been slapped in the face. Lin Feng had to die.


Lin Feng didn't notice everyone's faces. He looked as calm as before. He placed his sword carefully into the sheath. He looked at Hou Qing who was on the ground, kneeling down and not feeling the slightest bit of mercy. He just kept not moving as if nothing had happened.


“One of the top ten in the ordinary disciple ranking. It's clear that when you say that I'm not worth fighting, but you're not ready to lose your own arm. '' Lin Feng looked at Hou Qing mockingly and said: I really don't understand why you allow yourself to be so arrogant when you are so weak, I'd be ashamed if I was your teacher. ”
