Realizer of Death : The Reaper-Chapter 109 109

?The spectators were stunned when they saw the battle between Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin. The two girls fought fiercely from the start of the match. In contrast to Gu Qingyang and Long Aotian's one-sided battle, the two girls' battle was evenly matched.

They took turns attacking and defending without losing their battle rhythm. It looks very attractive to the people who watch it. Unfortunately, the onlookers could only enjoy Wang Ruyue's beauty as Huang Yuxin covered her face with a veil. If they could see both of them, the match would be even more perfect.

"Incredible." One of the spectators muttered in awe. After that, the others responded, and the atmosphere in the audience seats went wild as they shouted to support the two girls in the arena.

Apart from the spectators, the participants were also amazed by Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue's battle. Tenku was one of them, and he focused on their battle as neither held back in the match. He might see some of the trump cards they are hiding. Moreover, Tenku was watching their match because he had promised to support them.

Tenku had to admit that these two were the strongest girls he knew, apart from Setsuka and Hijiri. If Huang Yuxin were to fight against Hijiri, their match would be fascinating and hot because both had the same elements in their attacks.

When Tenku was focused on watching the two girls' match, he heard words from someone not far from him.

"As expected of my woman and the one who will be my future wife. She is not only beautiful but also strong. But Huang Yuxin was also not inferior to her in both aspects, and she even had advantages in some areas. Should I take her as my wife too?" Gu Qingyang said in a voice loud enough for those around him to hear.

"What are you saying, Gu Qingyang!? Don't you have any shame in talking like that!? Since when did Wang Ruyue become your future wife!?" Wang Zeming stood up from his seat and shouted angrily at Gu Qingyang. He was displeased that Gu Qingyang treated Wang Ruyue like an object of his own.

"Whatever you say, she is my future wife in the marriage agreement between the Wang and Gu families. Does the Wang family want to deny that? If so, then you are the one who has no shame." Gu Qingyang replied calmly in response to Wang Zeming's anger.

"When you bring up the matter, you must remember that the marriage agreement existed because your Gu family schemed! Besides, have you forgotten that it will be decided by the family that wins the martial arts competition? Do you think you have become a champion because you have defeated Long Aotian? Please don't dream in broad daylight!" Wang Zeming retorted in annoyance.

"Hoo… Do you think any of you here can beat me? Is that you, Wang Zeming? Was it Lin Zhantian? Or the Japanese disciple of the Wang family's first elder? In my eyes, you are nothing but ants and will meet the same fate as Long Aotian when you fight me in the arena." Gu Qingyang said arrogantly.

Lin Zhantian frowned when he heard that. He kept quiet because he did not want to interfere in the problems of the two families. But Lin Zhantian couldn't stay still when his name was dragged into their bickering.

"Then, we'll prove it in the arena instead of arguing here." Lin Zhantian wasn't the type to talk much, but he had to respond to Gu Qingyang's words because he didn't like being looked down upon by others, even if those people were much stronger than him. After all, who would win if they fought seriously still couldn't be sure because he was much stronger than Long Aotian.

"Yes, I also have the same thought as you. Of course, that applies if you can win your match against Wang Zeming." Gu Qingyang smiled playfully.

Lin Zhantian glanced at Wang Zeming for a while and then ignored him like he didn't care about him.

"You!" Wang Zeming didn't like the way Lin Zhantian looked at him. The first genius of the Lin family looked at him indifferently, like he was nothing in his eyes. Originally Wang Zeming was only angry with Gu Qingyang, but now he was irritated by Lin Zhantian's attitude. But before he could vent his anger, Tenku quickly stopped him.

"You better ignore it. He deliberately provoked you and Lin Zhantian because he wanted to pit you two against each other. Do you still not realize it?" Tenku warned.

"Huh!?" Wang Zeming trembled upon hearing that. When he thought about what Gu Qingyang had done, he felt that Tenku's words made sense. Gu Qingyang was pitting himself against Lin Zhantian.

"Sit down and don't listen to anything he has to say. We just need to show that we can win this competition and don't talk nonsense with him. Not only to him but also the Gu family behind him." Tenku stared at Gu Qingyang coldly. He was also displeased that Gu Qingyang treated Wang Ruyue like an object of his own. But he was too lazy to talk nonsense and preferred to prove it in the arena.

"Yeah, you're right. He is so cunning! Luckily I didn't fall into his trap. Thank you." Wang Zeming clenched his fists tightly and looked at Gi Qingyang hatefully.

"You don't need to think about that. We'd better focus on Wang Ruyue's match in front of us." Tenku said and turned his attention to the arena. Wang Zeming nodded and sat back in his seat. But before that, he briefly glanced at Gu Qingyang for a while and then ignored him.

The battle between Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin had become more and more fierce. Huang Yuxin's sword was covered with flames, and Wang Ruyue's blade shone brightly like the moonlight. The technique she was using now was not from the Wang family but from the Ling family, the Celestial Moonlight Scripture. After that, both of them charged forward simultaneously and slashed their swords.

Burning Slash!

Arc Moon Slash!

Booooommmmm!

The shockwaves from their clash reached the side of the arena where the participants were seated. Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue were knocked back several meters by the impact. free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

Wang Ruyue suffered burns on her right arm up to the shoulder, while Huang Yuxin got multiple cuts on several parts of her body. But they didn't care about that and quickly dealt another attack to their opponent. The two clashed again in the middle of the arena and not once but several times.

Boom! boom! Boom!

In the battle, Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin prioritized attack over defense. The more they clashed, the more injuries on their bodies. The two girls couldn't escape the effects of their opponent's techniques. But that didn't prevent them from counterattacking.

Boom!

The impact destroyed a large part of the arena. When Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue clashed, shockwaves and heatwaves were created and damaged the surroundings.

(I can't lose! I have to prove to him that I'm better than her!)

Wang Ruyue gritted her teeth and gripped her sword tighter. Even though she tried to ignore it, she still felt excruciating pain from the burn on her arm and shoulder.

But his fighting spirit burned after remembering someone's face and made her forget the pain. This was a new feeling that she had never felt in her life until now. It was sweet and intoxicating, making Wang Ruyue want to give everything to him.

Thus, Wang Ruyue was determined to win the match even though she wasn't sure she could beat her opponent. She did it for the man, her pride as a woman, and her feelings.

(For some reason, I can't afford to lose this match! I want him to see me and pay more attention to me even though I'm just an acquaintance to him! This wound on my body won't stop me from winning against Wang Ruyue!)

Huang Yuxin felt her movements were sluggish due to the pain from the many cuts on her body. But she kept forcing herself to move beyond her means to avoid falling behind Wang Ruyue's speed.

At first, Huang Yuxin felt strange because she had never felt like this. She always had an intense rivalry with other genius female cultivators to prove who was the best. She did it solely for herself. To become the strongest female cultivator in China, she had to beat other female practitioners her age. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

But now Huang Yuxin is doing it to get someone's recognition so that the other party pays more attention to her. She thought the strange feeling that suddenly appeared in her heart wasn't bad and felt refreshing because she had never felt it before.

Boom!

After that clash, Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue quickly kept their distance. The two girls stood still in the arena and looked at each other. Then they opened their mouths simultaneously.

"I will defeat you!"

The two girls compressed all the Qi within their bodies into weapons. The flames on Huang Yuxin's sword became more and more intense while the light on Wang Ruyue's blade became brighter and brighter.

Behind Huang Yuxin faintly formed the image of a phoenix while behind Wang Ruyue appeared a full moon shining beautifully. Then the two brandished their swords and slashed.

Phoenix Cry!

Full Moon Slash!

The two girls released attacks that looked similar to a sword Qi but slightly different. It was the Qi they released using their techniques. Huang Yuxin shot out a red aura blade covered in flames, and Wang Ruyue's was silver with a dazzling light.

Booooooooooommmmmmmmmmm!

Their attacks clashed in the center of the arena and created tremors in the surroundings. The shockwave from the impact of their attacks even reached the audience seats. The arena was covered with smoke and dust from their attacks, and the spectators couldn't see anything happening there.

"What happened?"

"Who is the winner!?"

"Is it Huang Yuxin or Wang Ruyue!?

"Whoever wins doesn't matter because both are my idols!"

The audience clamored and waited tensely for the smoke and dust to clear from the arena. Not long after, the smoke and dust that covered the place slowly dissipated and revealed the figures of the two girls.

Their clothes were torn here and there, and Huang Yuxin's veil was cut in half, revealing a bit of her pale face. Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue had many injuries on their bodies and looked at each other breathlessly.

"You're great..." Huang Yuxin said in a barely audible voice.

"You too…" Wang Ruyue replied with a weak smile.

After that, both lost consciousness and simultaneously fell into the arena.

"Since they can't continue fighting, I declare that the result of this match is a draw! Both of them lost and did not qualify for the next round!" Jin Zhaohui announced the results of the second match in the quarter-finals.
