The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

Chapter 174 - UNILATERAL BEATING



LUO YAN was sitting on the audience area of the Arena in Goldcrest City.  For the first time in his life, he was truly confused of the current situation.  Shen Ji Yun suddenly challenged that annoying guy to a PvP.  No, rather than challenged, it's probably more accurate to say that the guy was threatened into agreeing.  

Not that he felt sorry for the guy.  How could he pity him after all those shit he said?  If Shen Ji Yun didn't challenge him, Luo Yan might have beaten him up himself instead.  

Now Shen Ji Yun was standing on the ring, facing that annoying guy.  And because they caused quite a commotion earlier, there's quite a lot of players watching at the audience area.  Well, a lot considering that it's a PvP between two not so well known players.

What Luo Yan couldn't understand was why Shen Ji Yun suddenly challenged that guy to a PvP.  Honestly, the only thing he could think of was because of the inappropriate comments the guy said earlier.  But why would Shen Ji Yun snap because of that?    

He was always so calm and collected.  It's like nothing could ever rattle him.  He barely even showed any kind of emotion.  And yet earlier, he didn't hesitate to brandish his sword against another player in front of a crowd.  That was the first time Luo Yan saw Shen Ji Yun so angry.  It might not have appeared on his face.  But his body language showed just how angry he was.  From his aggressive stance to the frigid atmosphere surrounding him.  It just screamed –'I'm very angry right now'.

Luo Yan returned his gaze to the ring.  Shen Ji Yun was just standing there, all silent and brooding.  His eyes were closed, as if just waiting for the fight to start.  His opponent, on the other hand, was staring at Shen Ji Yun.  As if checking on his costume and equipment.  And when he found that it was nothing special, there was smug expression on his face.

  Luo Yan shook his head.  He could already see this guy being beaten up quite horribly.  Looking at the guy's expensive costume and equipment, he's probably one of those rich second generation who's playing this game.  But no matter how good his equipment was, he still wouldn't be able to defeat Shen Ji Yun.

Although he hadn't seen Shen Ji Yun fight in PvP, there's just no way that he would lose.  They did a couple of task and even some dungeon raid, he could see by the way he moved and fought that he was really good.  His skills could definitely not be compared to some random player.  After all, he's the captain of the team that first won the Arcadia Cup.

Just like what Luo Yan thought, the guy was already thinking that he would win.  His opponent's avatar was dressed too simply.  Like he just picked the first black clothes he saw.  And then there was that broadsword.  It looked so simple.  Its only redeeming quality was that the blade was all black.  Preventing it from completely looking rustic.

He suddenly wanted to beat himself for feeling so scared earlier.  It's just that when he pointed that sword at the side of his neck, he literally felt that there's a noose hanging on his neck.  That's the first time he ever felt like he's in danger.  But he garnered his confidence back.  Although he'd only been playing this game for a year now, he's still quite confident with his skills.  He'd definitely pay back this bastard for scaring him.

Then the screen hanging above the ring lighted up, showing the information of the two players fighting.  The guy immediately looked at the information of his opponent.

SHEN

Race: Human

Class: Swordsman

Level: 86

A smug smile appeared on his face when he saw that.  Although he's also a human swordsman, he was seven levels higher.  Now he was even more confident that he could easily beat this bastard.

A countdown on the screen started.  3... 2... 1... Start!

When the 'start' appeared, the guy immediately used one of his most powerful skills.  It's always better to have the first move.  It would give you the advantage that you need.

A storm of wind slash approached Shen Ji Yun at a very fast speed.  If he didn't dodge it, a large amount of his HP would definitely be gone.  He opened his eyes, there wasn't even a hint of anxiousness in him.  He quickly drew his sword and used [Counter].  He met every wind slash with the blade of his sword.  And each time he did, an even more powerful wind slash appeared, going to the opposite direction and straight at the person standing there.

The guy panicked.  He didn't expect that this bastard wouldn't even try to dodge his attack and instead fight it head on.  He couldn't even see the speed in which he returned those slash.  How could someone with a lower level defend his attack without even breaking a sweat?

He gritted his teeth and used a very expensive item to defend himself.  Because he had no confidence that he would be able to dodge each one of the slash that were coming his way.  It's better to be safe than sorry.

A huge shield symbol appeared in front of him.  Completely protecting him from the onslaught of wind slashes.

The audience was on fire, thoroughly enjoying the fight.

"That black-haired swordsman just used [Counter], right?"

"Yes, and quite skillfully too.  I've never seen someone used [Counter] consecutively like that."

Luo Yan heard that conversation and he couldn't help but smile proudly.  This was Shen Ji Yun, not just an ordinary player.  Of course, the way he used his skills would be different than others.  He returned his attention back to the ring.

Shen Ji Yun didn't waste any more time and dashed forward.  The moment the shield of his opponent disappeared, he was already in front of him, brandishing his sword. 

The other guy had no choice but to raise his own sword to protect himself.  The moment the black sword touched the blade of his sword, he almost felt like a hundred tons of weight just came down at him.  His knees almost buckled.  That's how heavy the bastard's sword strike was.  

Before he could even do any kind of retaliation.  The bastard continued to slash down his sword at him.  He couldn't even get a break.  He wanted to use one of his skills to counter attack but there wasn't even a single opening for him to do that.  The attack continued on.  He could feel his feet started to be buried on the part of the ring he was standing on because of how heavy and powerful this bastard's every attack was.  His arms were even starting to feel numbed.

How could he not even fight back when he was several levels higher that this bastard?  It's totally unscientific!  But the most embarrassing thing was the fact that the jerk wasn't even using a skill.  He's just attacking him with his raw power.  But something more embarrassing happened the next second.

His sword, the one he spent so many crystal coins on, just broke into two!  

Then the broadsword swung down at him without anything stopping it.  The black blade slashed down at his body.  He stumbled back and fell.  He could feel his HP quickly decreasing.  He truly couldn't believe what just happened.

He looked at the cold face of the man standing before him and looking at him like he's some kind of small bug under his feet.  "Y-you—"

"This is just a warning.  But if you ever show your face at Yuexing Pavilion, you'll experience something worse than this.  So, please, do remember this pain."

Then, without waiting for his reply, the broadsword went through his body.  That's the last thing he saw before everything went dark.
