In that case, he should try his luck.
"I..."
"Lin Xiao, I challenge you!"
Hearing the sudden war declaration, Lin Xiao furrowed his eyebrows. He was just about to fight and now someone was already challenging him. He turned his head to the back and arched his eyebrows when he saw a familiar face.
"Prince Lin Hong, I didn’t expect to see you here." Lin Xiao smiled faintly.
"I want to fight you."
Right now, Prince Lin Hong was already feeling so annoyed that he wished he could kill the other princes. He was one of the few princes who have the qualification and yet he was actually fallen so low that even the country bumpkin was regarded higher than him.
How could he accept this?
He was the genius! He would soon surpass his older brothers and first thing first, he had to defeat Prince Lin Xiao and prove himself!
Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows. "Sure."
He had no qualms accepting Prince Lin Hong’s challenge. At most, he would prove it to this annoying prince once more that he was more than capable to earn the position as one of the few princes.
"Good."
Prince Lin Hong could still faintly remember the humiliation he suffered in Lin Xiao’s hand back in the forest. He had long wanted to defeat Lin Xiao in order to redeem himself. After advancing to Golden Core Stage 1, his confidence was boosted and he naturally wanted to challenge Lin Xiao.
Swish!
The two of them landed on the empty arena. The referee in that place looked at the two of them, trying to remember their name before he asked, "Are you ready?"
The two of them nodded.
"Start!"
Bang!
The sound of explosive punch landed near Lin Xiao. He had already swiftly retreated but his lips curled up to form a smile. He would have never thought that Prince Lin Hong would actually attack from a distance.
"Golden Core Stage 1?" Lin Xiao asked in low voice.
Prince Lin Hong sneered. "You won’t be able to defeat me now."
"Is that so?"
The word Lin Xiao said was extremely nonchalant as if he was fighting against ordinary people and not a talented prince. This made Prince Lin Hong enraged once more. He shouted loudly and pounced forward, his hands rapidly punched forward in order to destroy Lin Xiao.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The wind element clearly told Lin Xiao that Prince Lin Hong had considerable achievement in this regard. However...
’He’s too slow.’
Lin Xiao could evade with ease. Even without using too much of his body’s movement, he could evade the attacks. His eyes were looking at Prince Lin Hong as he smiled faintly. There was no need to play around so much.
Swish! Tep!
Disappearing, Lin Xiao appeared beside Prince Lin Hong and stretched his sword. The tip reached towards Prince Lin Hong’s neck as faint red line was formed. Even though Lin Xiao didn’t exert any strength to hurt the prince, his movement just now had already caused fear to stem from within Prince Lin Hong’s heart.
He was already Golden Core Stage 1 but he still couldn’t see through Lin Xiao’s movement?
How could it be?
"You..."
"What is it?" Lin Xiao asked back in low tone. "You’ve lost, Your Highness."
The word ’Your Highness’ seemed to be mocking Prince Lin Hong when he heard Lin Xiao said. His eyes turned red as he looked in Lin Xiao’s direction. He couldn’t accept this. How could someone as genius as him be defeated in Lin Xiao’s hand.
"I’m not lose, yet!"
Clang!
A sword appeared and knocked Lin Xiao’s sword. If only Lin Xiao wanted to kill Prince Lin Hong, he could have done it because the move from Prince Lin Hong was filled with flaws. However, he had already killed one prince and it had given him enough trouble.
There was no need to kill another one so blatantly in front of everyone again.
Swish!
Lin Xiao jerked his hand as his lips curled up to form a sneer. It seemed that this Prince Lin Hong still hadn’t tasted enough defeat. In that case, it was time for him to show a little bit of his skill.
Mountain Sword, Third Stance!
Bang!
The stance that was mostly only used by those at Body Training exploded with strength as Lin Xiao strike Prince Lin Hong. The prince was stunned and quickly raised his hand in an attempt to block the attack as he shouted in his mind.
Dragon Turtle Shield!
Bang!
It’s useless!
The skill barely able to block Lin Xiao’s attack and Prince Lin Hong’s body flew to the other side of the arena like a kite. Unable to hold onto the ground, Prince Lin Hong’s body slipped even further, falling outside the ring.
Lin Xiao watched the prince fall and snorted. They did come to Sun Dragon Academy at the same time but now it was clear that Prince Lin Hong didn’t manage to grow as much as Lin Xiao.
When they first came to Sun Dragon Academy, he was not Prince Lin Hong’s match. In fact, he was far from it.
But in short three years, he had gained ability that far surpassed Prince Lin Hong. Their rank was still the same right now but would it continued that way in the future? Lin Xiao highly doubt it.
He had to advance faster....
The world is vast and there were more powerful people. If those powerful people treated him as a nuisance, he wouldn’t be able to survive for long.
Lin Xiao took a deep breath as he gathered his thought back. While there were many things that he thought, it all occurred within split second as his brain could think much faster than normal human. This was one of the benefit from one who become a cultivator.
He turned to look at the referee.
"This... Prince Lin Xiao win and retained his rank," the referee quickly announced.
Lin Xiao nodded and swiftly went down from the stage.
