章 61: Chapter 61: Wait... Money...
...
"Victory goes to the brave!"
In the fighting arena, the host passionately announced the winner of this battle between Soul Masters. Immediately, the quiet audience erupted into applause and excited cheers.
What a fantastic fight! Although many couldn't follow the battle between Zeng Yi and Dai Mubai because it ended too quickly, the sudden fierce wind that blew in the arena, forming a visible furious tornado, along with the sharp sword energy that made one's hair stand on end, had shaken everyone present.
Although they were unaware of what happened afterwards, this breathtaking visual feast was enough to satisfy the spectators.
Dai Mubai supported Zeng Yi as they left the fighting arena, and their group of friends quickly gathered around.
"Dai Boss! It's so great that you're okay!" exclaimed Ma Hongjun, excited.
"I thought you were dead!" he added, his expression still a bit shaken, recalling Zeng Yi's last move, which had left him trembling.
Hearing Ma Hongjun's concerned words, Dai Mubai felt a warmth in his heart. But then, his expression darkened at his next words.
"Hongjun, are you itching for a fight?" Dai Mubai clenched his fist and made a gesture toward Ma Hongjun.
"Hehe, Boss, I was just concerned about you!" Ma Hongjun immediately began pleading for forgiveness, smiling in a flattering manner. His round face with a little mustache looked quite comical when he smiled.
"What's wrong with you guys? Is Zeng Yi okay?" Tang San couldn't help but ask when he saw Zeng Yi bleeding from his seven apertures, his body weak and heavily injured.
Seeing Tang San inquire, the others also looked concerned, and Dai Mubai couldn't help but sigh.
"This is the result of me forcibly taking that sword move from him..."
Zeng Yi, who was leaning on Dai Mubai, spoke slowly, but his voice sounded weak and feeble.
"But it's not a big issue, just some internal injuries. I'll be almost recovered after resting for one night."
Releasing Dai Mubai's support, Zeng Yi stood alone, but his body swayed, almost falling to the ground. Dai Mubai quickly caught him.
"And you say it's not a big issue? It looks like you're about to die!" Xiao Wu, seeing Zeng Yi like this, said irritably. Just look at his own condition, weak and unable to stand properly, and he says it's not a big issue? Then what would be considered a big issue?
"Alright, let's not talk about that. Take Zeng Yi and go rest," Tang San hurriedly said.
"It's a pity Oscar isn't here."
Thinking of this, Dai Mubai couldn't help but sigh. Although that guy's soul skill was disgusting, its healing effect was really good.
"Wait... wait..."
As Tang San and the group were about to support Zeng Yi to leave, a weak voice sounded, and it was Zeng Yi.
"What's wrong?" Dai Mubai stopped and asked Zeng Yi.
"Quick... quickly take me... to the counter to settle the bill and get... get the money..."
Zeng Yi's words almost made several people faint. They thought it was something important, but it turned out to be about getting paid? You're in such a state, and you're still thinking about these things? Truly a weirdo, dying for money?
Ignoring Zeng Yi's request, the group dragged him back to the resting room and asked him to rest while Dai Mubai went out to find a healing-type soul master to help treat Zeng Yi's injuries.
In the resting room, Zeng Yi had already washed his face, cleaning off the blood stains and not looking as appalling, but his face was extremely pale.
"Meow~"
Xiao Jun also came to Zeng Yi's side and kept spinning around him, very concerned about his owner's condition.
Sitting on the sofa, Zeng Yi gently stroked Xiao Jun's head, comforting it, "It's alright, you don't need to worry girl."
He reached out and lifted Xiao Jun, placing it on his lap, and stroked its fur. Xiao Jun lay quietly on Zeng Yi's leg, feeling his care.
"You have such a good relationship with Xiao Jun." Watching the heartwarming scene between Zeng Yi and Xiao Jun, Xiao Wu said with envy. She also wanted to touch Xiao Jun; this small furry creature was just too adorable! But now it was sticking to Zeng Yi even more and even abandoned Zhu Zhuqing, who had been holding it all along.
"Hehe... ahem, after all, I'm the one who raised it." Zeng Yi smiled lightly, his voice weak.
"But are you really okay, Zeng Yi?" Tang San asked with concern when he saw Zeng Yi's pale and weak appearance. Fierce backlash can be very dangerous and might leave hidden dangers that could affect your future cultivation.
"I'm really fine. I've encountered situations worse than this, and I've come through them. This is truly a minor problem."
Zeng Yi replied, giving them a reassuring look.
This level of injury didn't worry Zeng Yi; with his self-recovery ability and freakish physical condition, he believed that his injuries would be mostly healed after a night.
"By the way, Zeng Yi, what was the move you used against Dai Boss just now? Was it your soul skill?" Ma Hongjun asked when he saw that Zeng Yi was not in big trouble.
The others also looked at him inquisitively, wanting to know what style Zeng Yi employed to summon the fierce wind. The scene of that move was too shocking; the howling wind and raging sword energy made them feel suffocated even from outside the arena.
"Uh... that move is called the Winds of Decisive Slash!"
"Winds of Decisive Slash? Is that your soul skill?"
"Well... sort of? It's my third soul skill!" Zeng Yi said, eyes wide open, making up the answer. The Winds of Decisive Slash was only a powerful move he created by combining his own strength, wind element, sword technique, and soul power. And indeed, it was his strongest sword move at the moment.
And as for Zeng Yi's third soul skill, it was too broken. He had never dared to use it because it consumed too much energy. In just a short time, his soul power would be drained.
"How powerful is your third soul skill? It feels like even a Soul Ancestor can't take it!" Ma Hongjun exclaimed after hearing Zeng Yi's words. They were both at the Soul Elder level, so why were his soul skills so ridiculously strong?! How are other people supposed to play against him?!
"Hehe... it's not that bad, but it does consume a lot of energy." Zeng Yi smiled faintly.
"Can your martial soul control wind?" Tang San asked again.
Zeng Yi thought for a moment and replied, "Indeed, my martial soul has the ability to control wind."
In fact, he could control wind because he had cultivated the Wind Sword Technique. But it was easier to push such questions onto his martial soul. In the world of Douluo, if there were any unexplainable questions, just blame it on the martial soul.
When in doubt, resort to martial soul philosophy.
"So that's it." Tang San nodded. "Your martial soul is called Ronin Sword, and Ronin happens to mean 'Wandering and Carefree Samurai.' It seems like your martial soul has an incredibly compatibility with Elemental Wind's characteristics."
Hearing Tang San's words, Zeng Yi was confused. Actually, my martial soul's original name was Lonely Sword! Ronin Sword is a name I gave it. However, hearing you say that, it does make sense. Ronin Sword is more suitable for me, the joyful wind man.
"But did you use that move just now to try to kill Dai Boss?" Ma Hongjun asked quietly.
"Well... about that! Dai Boss asked me to use all my strength to fight him, so I granted his wish and used my strongest sword move. But in the end, it seems he couldn't handle it! So, I forcibly retracted the move, resulting in this situation," Zeng Yi said helplessly. In the end, he had overestimated Dai Mubai; he actually thought he could withstand it!
This Winds of Decisive Slash was a move that Zeng Yi had just created through insights gained after breaking through to the Soul King rank. At that time, he was still in the Sunset Forest, having only tested this sword technique against soul beasts and never against a person. He wasn't sure about its power against someone of the same level as him, so he wanted to test it on Dai Mubai. But it seemed he couldn't handle it!
Realizing that Dai Mubai had sought a battle against someone of the same rank, he had given his best sword move, which should be the most powerful attack so far. Unfortunately, it seemed that Dai Mubai couldn't withstand it.
Looking at Zeng Yi's explanation, the group felt a bit embarrassed. So it was Dai Mubai's own fault that this had happened!
