Bab 21: Ryusei vs Tang San
Tang San stood there silently, Ryusei felt a flashback when he saw this scene and felt that he was about to fight for real this time. He felt a bit of danger from Tang San, the danger he had felt in his previous life, that he was walking on a thin line right now.
He felt his blood boil and was feeling excitement, he thought 'Come, Tang San. Surpass my expectation because the stronger you are, the stronger is the strength of one of my greatest helpers.'
Soon, he saw Tang San took out a hidden knife and attacked Ryusei with it. Dai Mubai and Oscar were shocked when they saw this and said out in a surprised voice, "Tang San also uses hidden weapons."
Ryusei just pulled out a single kunai from his spatial belt and started deflecting the Tang San's knife blade with it, he noticed that Tang San was actually moving while he was releasing these knives from his Spatial belt.
His peculiar movement was incredibly mysterious as he couldn't deduce where Tang San was going to move next, he was astonished as after coming to this world he had never found anyone who had a similar footwork, he used his kunai and deflected all the kunai's while observing the strange footwork of Tang San.
This footwork was incredibly strange as Tang San seems to move in a complete random location, it was like he didn't think of the place where he wanted to go and just let his body respond to the situation in front of him.
He was so engrossed in observing the footwork of Tang San that he didn't notice the cuts on his arms. The poison in the blades started to take effect and Ryusei felt his Spirit Power used up really quickly, he knew that if he kept on maintaining his Rank 29 then he wouldn't be able to support this consumption for even a minute.
He thought 'Congratulations to you Tang San, for making me use my Second Spirit Ability' He used the Ability: Purple Lightning Manipulation inside his own body as he destroyed all the poison with his Purple Lightning.
He looked at Tang San and said, "Well, well, well, time to get serious." He then used the Lightning Ability inside his hands and increased the speed of his hands and caught all the knives that Tang San was using against him.
This astounded everyone who was watching the match but they were shocked for different reasons like Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were shocked because of the ability that Ryusei used, it was very fast, it caused him to become a blur in their eyes as they couldn't see his movements clearly.
Tang San was a bit surprised that he was capable of catching all the knives, then he suddenly took out some golden needles as thin as hair from his Spatial Belt and threw them at Ryusei. This time Ryusei couldn't use the previous trick as earlier because the Golden needles were too small, thin and very fast with a great piercing power as compared to the knives before.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to get them all and some of them might go in his body, this time, he released 2 kunais from his Spatial Belt and started deflecting all the golden needles from his body. He didn't want to deflect them from the kunai in his hand as he was a bit cautious right now because he knew that Tang San used poisons on his weapons.
If his guess was correct then these needles were most likely a trump card for himself and they could even penetrate a Spirit Ancestor's body. While he was deflecting the golden needles, he kept all his attention to his front from the direction the golden needles were coming and suddenly Tang San appeared besides him and he was about to hit Ryusei with his hammer but a kunai suddenly appeared out of nowhere and was at his throat.
It was as if the kunai dared Tang San to hit Ryusei and he would also get killed or would at least be severely wounded. Tang San suddenly heard Xiao Wu's innocent voice, "Why is brother San fighting against brother Tian right now."
Tang San was pretty astonished by hearing her voice and turned towards her, he left the ground and didn't care about the match against Ryusei, he felt that Xiao Wu was much more important than getting into an academy.
Tang San asked Xiao Wu in a worried voice, "Weren't you injured by him just now? Are you fine, Xiao Wu?" Xiao Wu was a bit confused and said, "Oh, you are talking about that, his punch wasn't that strong it was just that it felt as if it hit one of my weak points and let me stay unconscious for some moments.
Tang San was confused and said, "Then what about your expression you had after you were hit by him. It was like he hit you so badly that he destroyed your innards."
Xiao Wu waved off his worries and said, "No, it wasn't anything like that. His punch was certainly quite powerful but it wasn't strong enough to make me that injured." She mumbled out in a low voice 'My shocked expression was because of hearing him whisper, 'I wonder what is a rabbit doing here''
That truly shocked her as she knew that Ryusei at least knew about her identity and could pretty much unveil her real identity at any moment. Tang San looked at Ryusei and felt even more respect towards him, he calmly thought 'Whatever he did, it was to make me fight against him in a serious one on one match. From his intelligence, he should have figured out that Xiao Wu is really precious to me and by harming her in front of me to make me angry so that I would go all out against him in battle.'
'It was like he knew that I didn't use all of my abilities and actually passed all other except me so that he could fight against me in a serious match. But, why? Why did he do all this just to fight me in this match? Now that I think about it, why was my father with him when he met Rongrong? Just who is he?'
While Ryusei was similarly thinking 'He really managed to live up to my expectations and surpassed them with that sneak attack. Truly a genius, if I wasn't in this world then he would have been able to surpass all those similar to his rank, with strong spirit or not.'
Ryusei looked at every one of them and said, "Tang San has passed the fourth examination, he is now a student of the Shrek Academy." Everyone nodded and were a bit happy at his words, Tang San suddenly came near Ryusei and stretched out his hand and said, "It was a good match. I am sincerely convinced of my loss there."
Ryusei ignored his stretched hand and hugged him and said, "I think of Uncle Hao as my father so you are like my brother. You have really made me happy by forcing me to use my second Spirit Ability and actually found its counter in a second and also had a backup plan if this one also failed. I am proud to have you as my brother."
While he heard this, Tang San felt a bit embarrassed as he was being praised and thought 'Then what about you brother Tian, you actually had a backup plan too. I am someone from the Tang Sect and a reincarnated person with lots of experience in fights but still I lost to you in a fight in the hidden weapons.'
'You didn't use your great spirit power to your advantage, you didn't use a great number of weapons that I used. You didn't have the techniques I have but still I lost to you. Then what does it say about your talent, you are just too humble or just don't want to be in the spotlight right now. That is the reason why I said that I am sincerely convinced of my loss.'
