Chapter 944: One-Sided Match
Grand League.Lackey!
Just from seeing this name on the cape, Nanhu already became very angry.
He was a Yellow and Green-level Double Honorary Aristocrat, after all. His level was definitely not considered low. If he was fighting against a normal Fourth-Order Planet Warrior, he could win them as easily as if he was cutting through a vegetable. But this Hong Dali was so arrogant that he just casually sent a lackey to fight against him. Also, this lackey was really a lackey, even his name was Lackey! Therefore, Hong Dali’s attitude of belittling others really caused them to feel very angry.
“Humph, you are the lackey responsible for fighting in his place against me?” Nanhu looked at Li Yang from the corner of his eyes. In his eyes, this person in front of him looked very cheeky and lowly. The smile on his face could even be said to be so humble that it caused him to feel disgusted.
Having to duel with such a lackey who didn’t look in the least impressive caused Nanhu, who had quite a high self-esteem, to feel quite annoyed.
Of course, although he was annoyed and unhappy about it since Hong Dali dared to send this true lackey to come into the arena, Nanhu still needed to be cautious about it.
After all, it wasn’t unheard of for people to fail in places least expected. If he lost here in such a situation, he would totally make a shame of himself.
Therefore, Nanhu very discreetly looked at Li Yang’s hand, then instantly felt even more disdain for him.
Because for those who constantly practiced martial arts, the muscles in their entire body would be very perfectly crafted. As for this lackey’s hands, they looked like they were more suitable in helping his master doing more leisure tasks.
Of course, in Nanhu’s view, maybe for a lackey like Li Yang, he wouldn’t be able to afford to practice high-end martial arts his whole life.
“Yup, that’s right.” However, Li Yang wasn’t self-abased at all. He only looked at Nanhu and carried the signature smile of those insignificant people. “Then, shall we start now?”
Nanhu slightly squinted his eyes.
He was of course very confident of his own strength. As the saying goes, there wasn’t a champion in literacy and there wasn’t a second place in martial arts. Since this person could behave so leisurely, he definitely wasn’t as simple as he looked. But no matter how Nanhu looked at him, Li Yang didn’t seem like someone who could last a few moves against him.
Is this fellow pretending to be weak? Nanhu shook his head.
Those people who pretended to be weak were only a legend, what was more common was that they were really weak.
No matter the case, this opponent was only a lackey, but Nanhu was a true Yellow Green-level Double Honorary Aristocrat. Nanhu wasn’t able to tell if Li Yang was really weak or not, but he knew that he himself was strong. He wouldn’t be so easily defeated by Li Yang even if Li Yang was pretending to be weak.
Before participating in this times’ advancement assessment, Nanhu had naturally sparred with his guards too. Not surprisingly, he won against all of them, and very easily at that! And for those fights, his opponents were five Fourth-Order Planet Warriors.
It couldn’t be that this lackey was even stronger than five Fourth-Order Planet Warriors, right?
“I think we should just forget it, in case you make a fool of yourself.” Nanhu said in disdain, “You guys can still change to another person to fight with me, in case you lose too badly. If that happens, your master will probably not be happy with you when you go back.”
Before beating the door, one had to consider the dog’s master. Hong Dali was a formidable person who won against everyone in the business department, after all. Nanhu really didn’t want to offend him too much. Therefore, he still needed to say these necessary words.
“Ah, it’s fine. Young Master won’t mind.” Li Yang grinned and said, “How will we know if we don’t try? Right?”
There were actually some more words that he didn’t say to Nanhu.
If it was Levis instead of him, this Nanhu would probably end up in a much worse condition. Therefore, from this point of view, Li Yang was actually being quite nice...
“Arrogant!” Since this lackey ignored his kindness, Nanhu didn’t say anything else and directly prepared to start the fight.
Everyone on the spectator stand got tensed up in anticipation of the fight.
A lackey versus a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat, none of them had ever seen such a thing before.
“Hey, do you guys think this lackey is able to win?”
“Hard to say, but probably not. If this lackey lasts three or five moves before he loses, he can already be considered to be quite strong.”
“True, a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat isn’t for show, after all. I reckon Nanhu will be able to win in five moves.”
“I don’t think he needs so many, three moves are probably enough.”
While the people watching were discussing, Nanhu was calculating how to win beautifully too.
Being a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat, his mind turned very quickly. In just the blink of an eye, he had already come up with a plan.
He was going out full force!
Nanhu decided to go out full force, defeating this lackey before the lackey could even realize it. This way, not only would Nanhu be able to showcase his skills to the others, but he would also probably be able to force Hong Dali to enter the fight himself. If not, just winning against a lackey wasn’t very glorious.
“Three moves.” Nanhu slowly drew out his sword and insipidly said, “If I can’t defeat you in three moves, I shall concede defeat!”
These words instantly caused everyone to cheer crazily for him!
“Nanhu, that’s the way to go, very domineering, hahaha! Do your best!”
“That’s right, this is the kind of temperament that you should have. If you can’t even defeat a lackey, not only you, but all of the Honorary Aristocrats will be shamed!”
Different from the duels in the business department, this time, all of the Honorary Aristocrats were supporting Nanhu.
After all, this was a combat duel. Their pride as Honorary Aristocrats told them that if Nanhu was so easily defeated by a lackey, they themselves would be shamed too.
“Three moves, okay.” Li Yang instantly nodded. He was just a lackey, anyway. He didn’t need to maintain a good impression to others. There was no reason for him to decline such an advantage, right?
“Be careful.” After reminding Li Yang, a series of electricity sparks appeared on his sword and he directly slashed towards Li Yang’s chest.
The duel would be exactly the same as if it was in the real world, the only difference being that they wouldn’t really die. Therefore, there naturally wasn’t a need to hold back. They could go all out and kill each other here.
His sword gave off a dim golden light, the sound of the air being cut by the sword could be heard dozens of meters away.
Martial arts technique! Being a Yellow. and Green-level Double Aristocrat, Nanhu naturally learned a martial arts technique, and quite a high-level one too.
It was mentioned previously that Nanhu had sparred with his Fourth-Order Planet Warrior guards before and easily defeated five of them at once. Why was the difference so big? Because of the martial arts technique! The higher level the Aristocrat, the more powerful the technique they learned was.
“Heaven Alarming Sword Manual! It’s the Heaven Alarming Sword Manual!” Someone on the stand shouted, “Nanhu actually used his killing move at the start!”
This martial arts technique that Nanhu learned was called the “Heaven Alarming Sword Manual”. When he swung his sword, it would be as fast as lightning, the sword energy was also overwhelming and extremely powerful.
Once he used this set of martial arts techniques, his opponent would have a hard time blocking it. Especially since Nanhu was a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat, his combat talent was very powerful too. Facing Li Yang, using this technique, Nanhu was confident that he could win in just this one strike. Saying that he would win in three moves was just for the sake of leaving a retreat route for himself in case an accident happened.
But out of everyone’s expectations, facing such a powerful Nanhu, Li Yang actually went up against him bare-handed!
Li Yang only slightly squinted his eyes and slightly moved aside half a step, evading the sword’s tip, then focused his whole body’s strength on his arm, turned his waist, and punched his fist!
“BOMB!” A deep noise sounded, and the previously confident Nanhu was hit by Li Yang on the chest, his whole person being knocked back flying in the air.
While flying, Nanhu spouted out blood. After he landed on the ground, in just the blink of an eye, he turned into a flash of white light and was sent to the resurrection point.
One move, he actually only used one move.
But the result wasn’t what most of them had expected. The result was decided in just one move, but the victor was actually Hong Dali’s lackey!
This wasn’t a display of how the Double Aristocrat bullied a lackey, it was the other way round. This was obviously the lackey bullying the Double Aristocrat!
The entire venue fell silent.
A Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat was actually defeated just like that? This...
Actually, speaking of which, there wasn’t any injustice in Nanhu’s defeat.
One must know what kind of person Hong Dali was, right? He was someone who only used the best and wouldn’t settle for anything less. Li Yang was equipped with a full set of super-grade double attribute gemstones, each gemstone giving him 26 attribute points! Although Li Yang didn’t use any weapons such as swords or blades since he was attending this competition, he naturally had a weapon too—his weapon was a pair of gauntlets made from metal!
Therefore, his set of 20 attribute gemstones gave him an overall +520 stats, plus the 50 stats per attribute from the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass, plus his base stats which were close to 200 each, plus the combat training from Geezer Wang, then the Lackey Halo from Hong Dali which doubled his overall stats, honestly speaking, it really wasn’t difficult for him to defeat Nanhu...
After all, for a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat, it would already be considered not bad if his Strength, Agility, and Reflexes could exceed 400 points each.
But as for Li Yang? Each of his stats was close to 700 points!
What kind of concept was that? That was akin to Li Yang’s stats being even more powerful than the Black-level Honorary Aristocrats! Such a difference between him and the Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrats was enough for him to defeat them easily.
After the silence, the Honorary Aristocrats were completely fanatic.
“I... Did I see wrongly!? This lackey Li Yang, what’s wrong with him?”
“That’s right, he defeated the Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat in just one move? What the heck, from the looks of it, he hasn’t even used his full force yet?”
“He definitely didn’t use his full force! Just one move! Even a random lackey of Hong Dali has such strength too?”
By this time, Nanhu had been resurrected and returned to the competition venue.
Now, his face didn’t have the proud expression it previously had. In its place was a deep sense of loss.
He was defeated, and he was defeated so completely.
“I lost, you are very strong.” Nanhu’s voice was very despondent. “I didn’t even manage to catch the action of your fist moving just now. It looks like I am still too weak.”
“Hehe, thank you for letting me win.” Li Yang’s answer was very classic. “Being a lackey, I have to help my Master bear some of his troubles, isn’t it?”
“I got it.” Nanhu turned around and said, “Thank you for your guidance.” Then, he went back to the spectator stand.
Jiang Dongliu smiled as he looked at this and laughed towards Li Xuancheng, saying, “Oh my, Old Li, my side won again. I am really sorry about this...”
