BXBX NOVEL Chapter 359: Tenacious champion
And I am also very excited to see a battle between the two of the most important people of our Kingdom, let\'s not waste any time and call Tan Qi and Wang Ji- huh? "
Just when she was announcing the names of the participants for the next battle, the second prince stood up, and everyone there turned to look at him.
" Prince, do you have something to say? " She asked, after a small bow.
" C- Can I fight before them? " He asked, the king stared at his second son wondering what could be going on in his head.
" Uhmm... Sure, if the other participants don\'t have any problem with it then I can allow it. "
She said and looked towards Jayden and Tan Qi, who just nodded their heads allowing the prince to take their place in the first battle even the king nodded, seeing this the announcer spoke:
" Fine then, the first battle will be between our great king and the second prince. "
Jayden was well aware that the second prince hated the first prince and was also very jealous of him, because first one got everything without even asking just because he was older and the king\'s favourite son, so Jayden decided to use this rage that have been accumulating inside his heart for so many years and give everyone a spectacular fight.
After the announcement was made, the king and the second prince jumped on the battle area, the announcer declared the start of the battle and moved away from the battle area.
The second prince and the king stared at each other, as the crowd waited with bated breath for them to start the battle. " Son, why did you decide to participate? " The king asked in a low voice that only they could hear.
"..."
The prince stayed silent and took out a sword from his storage ring, it was a heavy sword like his father\'s, as he also is more inclined towards strength than agility.
" Haa fine then let\'s talk later, I guess this isn\'t the right place to talk, now come at m- "
Since the prince can\'t admit defeat right away, the king wanted to just pretend to fight him and then make him admit defeat, but the prince lunged forward waving his sword towards the king\'s throat with all his strength.
This action took the king by surprise, and despite having higher strength than his son, the second prince was able to inflict injury to his father\'s neck leaving a shallow mark on his neck.
Xing Tao touched his neck and looked at the drops of blood that had painted his fingers red, anger filled him when he looked at his son, but to his surprise his son was upon him yet again, waving the sword horizontally with all his might.
*CLANG*
This time however, the king was able to defend himself, he took a couple of steps back creating some distance between them and he asked:
" What are you doing? "
The second prince looked at his father with bloodshot eyes and shouted:
" Father, you shouldn\'t have taken my woman away from me, you even slept with her before me. "
He had said this in a loud tone, so everyone in the seats was surprised by these words, first the queen and now even the second prince was saying things like this, then everyone looked at the king strangely.
\' This pair of mother and son, are they plotting against me? \' Xing Tao thought and decided to end this match as fast as possible.
He took a step forward and just when the second prince\'s sword came towards him, he easily side stepped and hit the prince\'s head the the back of his sword.
*BANG*
The prince immediately fell to the ground unconscious, everyone stared at the centre, and no cheer came out yet again, they were still confused by the prince\'s last words.
" We have a winner, nothing less expected from our king. " The announcer said as she approached the centre, some people came to help the prince and within a couple of minutes he came back to his senses but he couldn\'t understand what had happened then both of them left the area.
" Alright now we are going to see the awaited fight, Wang Jin and Tan Qi, will be fighting next. "
Jayden didn\'t stop the creation of the array, as he jumped towards the battle area, while Tan Qi followed.
" The battle shall begin. " After announcing this, she walks away from the battle area.
" You are not going to admit defeat just like the previous time, I assume. " Tan Qi said as he took out a spear from his space ring.
Jayden didn\'t answer and simply brought out his purple sword, even though Tan Qi was using a spear he still couldn\'t take his gaze away from the glowing sword.
" Then why don\'t we bet like you did the last time, if I win I take your sword and if I lose you can take away my storage ring, what do you think? " Tan Qi proposed and Jayden gave the same answer as the previous time:
" Whatever "
\' I will be finished with the array soon, so let\'s not drag this fight for too long. \' Jayden thought, as he positioned himself for the battle, in this round too he wanted everyone to believe that his victory was going only to be because of his extraordinary sword.
*CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG*
Loud clashing sounds resounded, as the sword hit the spear head, it was clear again that Jayden was able to persevere only because of his sword.
Jayden was pushed back again and again, and he again threw out several mouthfuls of fake blood, to be honest instead of doing it to fool the king Jayden was mainly doing this just because he was enjoying it, since even if he had fought as Tan Qi\'s equal, the peak rank cultivators would still have looked down on him.
After over a dozen minutes, several marks had appeared all over the spear\'s body and Jayden had thrown blood all over the ground, the crowd was looking in anticipation, waiting to see the end result, most of them were cheering for Jayden.
After a few more chashes, Jayden was finally able to break the spear into a few pieces and immediately made a small cut on Tan Qi\'s throat.
" I- I haa haa lost. "
Tan Qi spoke through laboures breath, he couldn\'t understand how Jayden was even able to stand right now after losing so much blood.
" And we got to see yet another wonderful battle, this time again our tenacious champion has won the battle, bringing him to the final round. " The announcer spoke.
