Yang Xing was training when someone knocked on his door. Opening them, he saw his younger brother, bloody and disfigured.
"What happened?"
With a voice colder than ice he asked. His brother was accepted to the genius class this year, and that is enough for the school to fear him. No one wants to provoke them in this school. And only Hunter's Guild Training Program can rival them.
Hering his brother explanation only made him angrier. To lose like this...
It was a disgrace to the Genius Class; the Leader will not forgive his brother. Unless he brings That guy to her.
"I will get someone to find that guy tomorrow, You just rest."
His little brother had fantastic talent, but when compared to Yang Xing there was a considerable gap between the two. Yang Xing's talent was only behind three people in the genius class. And this is enough to have control over other students, and his little brother used his identity and the fact that he is in the to the genius class and started to behave overbearingly.
He didn't stop him, to teach him a lesson like this, but... this was too much.
The next day Yang Xing sent one of his followers to search for the guy that beat up his brother.
When he came back, he was beaten up, but he got the information he wanted.
And since the next day he was looking for Marcus every day, but he didn't show up in the classes, and with thousands of students in the academy it was going slowly.
Today was his last chance to find him. Tomorrow he will have to meet the Leader of the genius class.
So he started looking, While they were searching the training the hunting grounds, he noticed someone from the Hunters Guild Training Program.
Yang Xing was desperate; He has to find Marcus before meeting the Leader. It will be his only chance to redeem himself and his brother.
The fight started, and Yang Xing was an advantage from the very beginning.
"Where is Marcus!"
"I told you, he didn't show up for days now!"
"I'm here!"
Hearing the shout he didn't expect, looking at the person leaning on the edge of the stage with a carefree smile. Yang Xing immediately realized that this was Marcus.
Finally.
"I give up." Giving up the fight he walked towards Marcus.
Marcus was looking at the young men walking towards him. His aura was getting stronger with every step he took. Marcus was celebrating inside. It will be a good fight.
"I want to fight you."
"Ok"
Without further ado, Marcus entered the stage. If he wants to train he will have to restrict himself a bit. First, he won't use any pathways as to not one-shot his opponent.
Since his energy is in the range of stage seven he will use it freely, but the energy itself is amazingly strong, so he won't gather too much of it at once as to, again, not one shot him.
His skills in close quarters are still fundamental, and his physical strength is below his opponent, so he will use that as he wishes.
He will also use Jörmungandr, it is an incredible weapon, and with it, he would be able to defeat opponents stronger than him, it's just that he doesn't have any experience with it.
And to solve it Marcus made a plan of how to fight from now on. He will focus on using the Eternal Snake Fist and try to add some attacks with Jörmungandr. Then if he needs to he will use some energy, but in small amounts and without using the pathways.
Wait… the fight.
Marcus remembered that he was in a fight. Looking at his opponent, he was… relieved?
That's wired. Shouldn't he be angry? He was looking for him, and in his previous fight, he looked quite furious. Well… it doesn't matter
"Shall we start?" Marcus already couldn't wait to fight.
"Yes." Yang Xing already couldn't wait to crush Marcus.
Hearing the answer, Marcus took Jörmungandr from his storage ring and took half a step back, and readied himself.
Swash!
Seeing that Marcus was using a dagger, Yang Xing took a sword from his storage ring. With his first swing, he wanted to cut Marcus's in the chest, but to his surprise, Marcus bent his back entirely evading.
And without any delay, Marcus moved his arm and stabbed towards his opponent. The dagger was moving through the air creating a hissing sound as if a snake.
Yang Xing immediately started to move, but the angle the attack was coming from was tough to block, but he forced his joints to move.
SCHLIK!!!
The two weapons collided and Yang Xing was able to change where the dagger hit him forcefully. There was blood flowing down his left arm; a wound showed on his left shoulder. Looking at his sword, he saw that the dagger left a deep mark on the blade.
It wasn't good...
Yang Xing didn't expect Marcus to be THAT strong. He needs to be serious about this, or he will lose. He started to move his Qi around his acupoints revolving his cultivation technique.
Marcus saw an aura forming around his opponent. It had light blue color and enveloped his whole body. Then he waved his sword.
Woom.
With a wave of his sword a sword beam shoot out towards Marcus. It was a first time he saw something like this. He didn't risk his life and tilted his body and evaded it.
Marcus waited for his opponent to attack him, but his opponent wasn't moving, he only stared at him with a serious face.
Yang Xing was perplexed, the beam attack was fast, incredibly fast, he, himself wouldn't be able to dodge it. But this was too wired, Marcus's strength wasn't proportional to his speed.
His strength and speed are at the peak of stage five, and he still was able to suppress him completely! His body was able to move in ways that are almost impossible without breaking your joints.
And up to this point, he didn't use even a bit of his Qi!
WHAT IS HE?!
What do you guys think?
