Wang Yigao thought that the guy in front of him was brain-damaged from being kicked by a donkey. It wasnt impossible to win against an opponent with a higher level, but those who could do so were geniuses, and even then, they needed top-notch skills and guidance from famous masters. Lin Ming was just a poor kid who had managed to get his hands on some low-level skills, and his innate talent was also subpar. Did he really think he could win against him? Wasnt he still dreaming from lack of sleep last night?
He asked with a playful smile: "What do you want?"
"If I win, I want two hundred-year-old ginseng and an additional five hundred taels of gold!"
Two hundred-year-old Blood Ginseng, plus five hundred taels of gold! The people around them secretly gasped in amazement. This kid isnt a simpleton either. Two Blood Ginseng would cost three hundred taels of gold, adding up to eight hundred taels. This is no small sum, but one needs to be alive to take it.
"Eight hundred taels of gold?" Wang Yi snorted coldly, "Are you worthy? Do you think your hands and feet are worth eight hundred taels of gold?"
In the Tianyun Kingdom, the identities of nobles and commoners were completely unequal. Even if Wang Yi Gao accidentally killed someone, he would only be punished with house arrest and then compensate 100 to 200 taels of gold.
Lin Ming slowly said: "A martial artists hands and feet are priceless to a martial artist, if youre not willing, I can forget about the gold, and you can cripple your own hands and feet."
"Look for death!" Wang Yigao angrily shouted and suddenly drew out the long sword from his waist.
Lin Mings expression remained unchanged as he said, "You havent answered me yet?"
"Hmph! Isnt it just 800 taels of gold? What if I give you 1,000 taels, can you take it with your life? Ill finish you off in three moves, and if I dont kill you, my name will be spoken backwards from now on!"
Wang Yigao was also furious, Lin Ming was delighted in his heart, and still had the idea of sending less money, "Well, then its a thousand taels!"
He had barely finished speaking when Wang Yigao aimed at Lin Ming and struck with his sword!
That sword carried a faint golden light, and its piercing sound echoed dozens of meters away.
Martial arts!
Using the true yuan and **power to attack and kill the enemy is the martial art, Wang Yigaos words of killing Lin Ming within three moves are not just a momentary impulse, he has his own reliance, that is, martial arts! This combat method can only be learned by the children of large families or martial arts schools, ordinary people dont even have a chance to learn.
Once the martial arts are used, those who do not know martial arts can hardly resist, especially Wang Yigao and Lin Ming have a difference of one realm, which is even more suspenseless. Wang Yigao has complete confidence in winning with one move, saying that within three moves, its just to leave some room for himself, so as not to have any accidents.
Wang Yigaos guess was correct. To this day, Lin Ming had not learned any martial skills and could only use ordinary moves to counter Wang Yigaos attacks.
The people around thought that the outcome was already decided, and Lin Xiaodongs heart tightened even more - how could Lin Ming block this sword!
Lin Mings eyes were fixed intently on Wang Yigongs sword as it chopped down, ever since he had cultivated the "True Essence Art" from the "Chaotic Void Fist Scripture", his senses had become several times more acute. At this moment, in his eyes, Wang Yigong was just a ferocious beast pouncing over! These past few days, Lin Ming had dissected countless ferocious beasts, although those beasts were already dead, but to dissect them, he still needed to find the gaps between their tendons and bones, and make quick, accurate and ruthless cuts!
At the moment when Wang Yigaos long sword came down, Lin Ming drew his sword. Without calculation or too much consideration, he relied entirely on intuition. The sword followed the gap in Wang Yigaos move and shot up diagonally.
With a sharp sword light, one sword compared to the simple can not be simpler knife, but the result of the fight was unexpected, Lin Ming dodged Wang Yi Gaos sword with a sideways movement, and his hand-held knife stabbed into Wang Yi Gaos ribs at an incredible angle!
"Ah!" Wang Yigao was stabbed by a knife and let out a muffled groan, flying backward and rolling through the air before crashing to the ground!
Whats going on? The onlookers didnt understand the secret of this knife and were all stunned.
At this time, Wang Yigaos clothes were torn from the chest to the ribs, a one-foot-long slit was pulled out, but no blood was seen. Inside his clothes, something was shining with a faint silver light.
"Soft shell?"
Lin Ming secretly called out in regret. Wang Yi Gao had worn soft armor under his clothes, and if not for this soft armor, the previous strike would have been enough to make Wang Yi Gao lose his combat strength.
"You!" Wang Yi Gao was both shocked and furious, his eyes turned bright red due to congestion. He had actually been stabbed, by a blow weaker than his own, and in full view of everyone! This was something the proud him absolutely could not accept.
"I want you dead!"
Logically, Wang Yigao should have conceded defeat from the previous blow, but how could he possibly admit defeat when he was already enraged to the extreme? He swung his long sword again, aiming a fatal slash at Lin Ming!
Martial arts activated again!
Lin Ming was like an experienced hunter, capturing every weakness of the ferocious beast that pounced on him without missing a single spot!
"Bang!" The scene just played out again, this time with the right side of Wang Yigaos outer garment also being torn open. As a result, his brocade robe became a suspender, hanging on his body.
The onlookers were stunned, the outcome of this battle was unbelievable. How could it have ended like this? As the saying goes, "one inch longer is one inch stronger", Wang Yigaos long sword was longer than Lin Mings Bone-Piercing Dagger, and he also knew martial skills, his cultivation was higher too. However, when they actually fought, he was stabbed by the same move twice in a row, and that move didnt seem to have any special features at all.
"That little guy is faster than Wang Yi in both physical speed and sword drawing speed!" A martial artist who was watching the battle suddenly said, "Practicing Body One is indeed faster than Practicing Body Two, this is truly unusual!"
Lin Mings speed was indeed much faster than Wang Yigong, and it was a huge difference. This was the effect of the Chaotic Void Fist! Before cultivating this fist technique, Lin Mings sword strikes were already extremely accurate, his perception was also very keen, but his speed and strength couldnt keep up at all, so naturally he couldnt defeat Wang Yigong who had cultivated the Body Refining Second Stage.
But now, with the "Hunyuan Gongfa Jing", everything is different!
"Ah ah ah!" Wang Yi Gao was about to go crazy, he tore off his outer garment in one motion, revealing the silver soft armor underneath. He had actually lost to a little kid who was only at the first level of Body Cultivation! If he didnt avenge this loss today, he would never be able to show his face again in Tianyun City.
"Ill take your life!" Wang Yi Gao desperately urged the true yuan within his body, and the narrow and sharp sword edge emitted an even more brilliant light than before, directly aiming at Lin Mings head. If this sword hit its mark, Lin Ming would undoubtedly die instantly.
However, at this moment, Lin Ming did something that shocked everyone - he threw away his dagger and faced the enemy empty-handed!
The onlookers were all bewildered, that Wang Yigaos strike was obviously his last ditch effort, pouring in all his strength. How could this kid throw away his weapon at the critical moment? The attacking power of holding a weapon is stronger than fists after all, and it can also block the opponents sword in times of crisis.
