Still, that much of an attack isn't enough to defeat . While I was smiling inwardly, I noticed sothing that almost pricked my heart and rocked to my core. Sohow, blood spurted from my should where my arm was cut off. Why do I have blood? Aren't I a rabid human? How co? Where did I get it?
I stared at it for a few seconds, trying to think of a reason why I was bleeding. Honestly, it looked really gory, but deep inside, I was elated. One way or another, I can finally label myself as a human. Even if I'm a rabid human before, I already have blood. BLOOD!
For the life of the flesh is in the blood... or so the famous saying goes from ancient scripture.
Slash!
And then, my other arm was cut off from once again.
What am I doing? Am I really going to let her land a free hit on ? Well, if I think about it on another angle, I can say that this is retribution. This much is not enough punishnt after everything I did to her. While she's at it, she could at least cut off my head and be done with it. It's not like I'd die from being killed.
"You're weak, relatively weaker than him. And yet, and yet... " Shi ili muttered once again. I have no idea what she was talking about or whom she was referring to, but I could feel her rage and sadness. She was seriously intent on killing .
"And Yong Rui froze! I think this is the end for him! He just can't keep up with Shi ili's movents, the famous dancing phoenix!" The comntator continued. "I guess his first dodge was just a fluke, a montary lucky break."
"Yong Rui, what are you doing? Are you forfeiting the fight?!" Shen Rong called out but I didn't hear him. Instead, I gave all my attention to Shi ili.
Suddenly, everyone from the audience fell silent as they felt the ominous aura erupting from my body. To soone who has never encountered the blood elent before, this was probably their first ti feeling sothing like this. Even Shi ili, who was quite confident with her speed, couldn't even budge from where she was standing. She seed like she was choking because of the pressure but I didn't give her a window of opportunity to attack . Right now, I have to do all I can to avoid being recognized by her.
However, there was one person who seed to not have been affected by my release of pressure. It was none other than Shen Rong. Instead of cowering in fear and being gripped with terror, he was casually standing beside the arena where ili and I were fighting.
"As expected of soone who had experienced countless death encounters. To those who didn't know, Yong Rui spent the last five years outside the walls of the Shelter. Yes, he had survived fighting rabid humans for five years." Shen Rong announced.
The people, both participants, and audience alike, gasped in awe as they stared at . Still, I ignored them. I decided to respond to ili's heartfelt feelings with mine. She wanted to fight all-out, I will give that fight to her.
Since no one dared to move under my pressure, I was the one who moved.
I casually walked towards my right arm and lied down beside it. After I pretended to chant sothing, my arm automatically reattached itself on my shoulder. I don't know if it got sothing to do with my elent but I'm sure that it's part of a rabid human's constitution. Just as expected, my arm was back to normal.
"No way,"
"He's got the heal elent?!"
"He really is a genius!"
"There's no denying it. He's a genius. How could he have the Healing Elent?"
"It's normal to have the Healing Elent. I know at least a thousand people who have the healing elent. It's not that rare."
"Are you stupid? Did you see how fast he healed his severed arm? The healing elent doesn't do that unless it was cultivated to a very high level."
"Yeah, have you ever heard anyone with the healing elent heal a severed arm in just a split second?"
"HEAL!"
The audience finally got the courage to murmur to each other. At least, they weren't that mindful about my killing intent anymore. However, ili was still highly affected by it.
With my right arm done, I moved on and picked up my left arm with my right arm and reattached it. After that, it's as if I didn't suffer any injuries.
Just like that, I could tell that Shi ili finally realized the difference in our power. Helplessly, she fell on her knees as the pressure finally got the better of her. It was clear in her eyes that she had surrendered the match. There was no need to keep up the pressure any longer. Besides, I might lose control over my brain again if I kept it up for a long ti.
With a flick of my finger, I deactivated all my skills, and the atmosphere and aura in the coliseum returned to normal. A majority of the audience heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, they could breathe normally just like before.
I slowly approached Shi ili while wearing the warst smile I could ever muster. Like the gentleman I was, I offered my hand to her so she wouldn't have a hard ti standing up. "I'm sorry to scare you like that, are you all right?" I asked, completely letting my guard down so she would be able to tell that I didn't an any harm.
But what happened next caught by surprise. Instead of reaching out her hand to hold mine, she did sothing that I never expected.
That's right, Shi ili started crying out of nowhere!
