After a few more rounds, Haas’s body began to suffer from large and small wounds. Most of them were caused by the collision of the sword aura and the Qi flowing through his body.
“This sword of yours… Is It…”
He quickly realized the uniqueness of the sword, but most people only lamented that Su Chen was a person who hid his strength.
Su Chen himself was also trying to find out the source of this power. Why was the Broken Steel Sword suddenly so powerful? He only thought of one thing. The Broken Steel Sword was forged with his blood. What if this sword needed to be nourished by blood?
Haas continued to throw punches. This time, Su Chen relied on the sword’s aura. Haas was unable to get close to him, but Haas was not an idiot. When he realized that the source of power was the sword, he began to attack Su Chen’s hand. As long as the sword was knocked away, Su Chen would become useless again.
However, Su Chen’s muscles were reacting ridiculously fast and Haas had no way of achieving his goal. At this time, a voice came from below the stage, “Brat! If you don’t put down that strange sword of yours, I’ll chop off his head!”
It turned out to be the lackey who had been following Haas all this time. He was pulling on Yousi’s collar with his knife pressed against Yousi’s neck.
Haas closed his eyes. Perhaps he had lost too much blood, but there was no reaction. Su Chen hesitated, but in the end, he chose to toss the Broken Steel Sword to the side.
After the sword was thrown to the side, the power in Su Chen’s body disappeared. He staggered and could only kneel on the ground. The force used by his body previously seemed to have caused more backlash to Su Chen’s body. He spat out another mouthful of blood. This time, the blood was dark red.
Haas walked in front of Su Chen,
“You’re a warrior. What’s your name? Tell me your name.”
Upon hearing Haas’s words, Su Chen burst into laughter.
“Hahahahahahaha, you aren’t worthy of learning taekwondo. I don’t know if I’m a warrior, but Haas, you definitely aren’t. I, Su Chen, have not lost in embarrassment today. It’s you who’s embarrassed!”
Haas was slightly angry, but he did not flare up. He walked closer and closer to Su Chen. Su Chen silently took out his pistol with his right hand and hid it behind his back. Until Haas was close enough, Su Chen used his last bit of strength and pressed the muzzle of the gun against Haas’s head.
“How is it? Do you want to give him a taste of his own medicine?”
In fact, Su Chen no longer had the strength to pull the trigger. All he could do was gamble to survive. Su Chen sensed that Haas was about to struggle and immediately warned him.
“Think carefully. If you struggle and your punch doesn’t kill me, I’ll shoot you to death! If you admit defeat now, I’ll spare your life.”
Everyone held their breaths, waiting for Haas’s decision. Su Chen could barely support himself, but he did not let himself appear too weak. This made Haas realize that he could not hold on much longer.
After a long time, Su Chen’s hand started to lose its grip on the pistol. Only then did Haas speak.
“I admit defeat.”
The moment, Su Chen heard Haas say these three words, his consciousness immediately blurred and he fell to the ground.
The next day, when Su Chen woke up, he was in his own room. Yousi was lying on the bed next to him, his wounds wrapped up with gauze. The wounds on his own body had also been treated. He tried hard to shake his head to remember what happened after yesterday, but he really could not remember.
Then, a chubby boy came into their room with food. It turned out to be the chubby boy next door who talked to them on the first day. After learning that Su Chen had woken up, he brought the food to Su Chen and said in surprise, “You’re awake! It seems that I brought the food just in time. Hurry up and eat. You must be starving.”
Su Chen still could not understand the situation, so he asked in a daze, “Thank you, but who are you? What’s the situation now…”
The chubby boy smiled embarrassedly. Then, he explained to Su Chen, “I’m in the room next to yours. My name’s Lotte. Yesterday, both of you were seriously injured. I dragged both of you back and used the herbs in your room to bandage you briefly. Then, I helped you pack up the rest of your things and put them in the corner over there. You guys were so cool!”
Su Chen repeated Lotte’s name, then looked at the Broken Steel Sword, pistol, and Yousi’s sword that was in the corner. They were all piled together. He let down his guard and trusted Lotte. Then, he asked Lotte about what happened after he fainted.
After Su Chen fainted, the host announced that Su Chen had won because Haas had admitted defeat. Since Su Chen had taken Yousi’s place in the arena, Yousi had risen from ninth to seventh place and Haas had fallen out of the rankings. Because of Bob’s death, the rankings had gone from ten places to nine.
This could be considered a blessing in disguise… After all, only those who were on the rankings would have a chance to enter the arena.
It was unknown if Yousi had smelled the aroma of food, but he had finally woken up. After Su Chen told him about the situation that day, he regained his energy. He ate his lunch and said with a smile, “Then, the two of us can be considered to be famous. Hahaha. But, what exactly is this Broken Steel Sword? I think we still need to study it properly.”
As Yousi finished, Lotte exclaimed, “This is the famous Broken Steel Sword?!”
Only then did Yousi realize that there was a chubby kid beside him. Su Chen smiled to show that Lotte was a trustworthy person and continued, “I was losing a lot of blood when the Broken Steel Sword became very different. I think the strength of the sword’s related to my blood. Maybe it needs blood to be nourished.”
Yousi did not deny Su Chen’s words. He nodded and said, “It’s useless for us to guess blindly now. We might as well find an opportunity to test it out.”
Lunchtime passed with such a happy atmosphere. Lotte also said goodbye to Su Chen and Yousi before going off to prepare for the group arena in the afternoon.
As Yousi was ranked seventh, he could appoint someone to challenge him. Based on the situation in the group arena that day, very few people would take the initiative to challenge someone ranked on the list. Therefore, Yousi thought of appointing Su Chen for the challenge. After a short fight, he would admit defeat. The next time, Su Chen would appoint him, and then he would easily admit defeat. This way, they would be able to maintain the position of seventh place, and without any effort, they would be able to determine the strength of their enemies through observation as they continued to challenge each other.
However, this plan was also based on the premise that no one would take the initiative to challenge them…
However, would everything really go that smoothly?
