"My na is Ma Zhen! The eldest son of Ma Yuan, the Council Leader of South Borough!"
Ash couldn’t care less about him, not in the slightest. However, he finally understood that Ma Zhen was Ma Jun’s older brother.
"Alright then, whatever you say, Young Master Ma Zhen. Who will be my opponent?"
"Of course, it would be !" Ma Zhen said confidently.
Wu Fei was about to stop the two, however, Ash raised his hand in front of Wu Fei’s face.
"I shall accept." Ash said.."When, where?" He glanced at Ma Zhen.
"Right here, right now!" Ma Zhen continued. "Whoever lands the first hit, wins! If you lose, you must surrender your sword!"
"Sword?" Ash scoffed. "I won’t need one. If you lose, you are going to strip your Arachnid’s Silk robe and walk naked from here to your house!"
The crowd once again. They never saw sobody who would brazenly appalling the Ma family, let alone trying to humiliate them to such degrees.
"Courting death!"
Ash laughed heartily. "Are you afraid?"
"Hmph! Not a chance!" Ma Zhen drew his sword from its scabbard, tossing it to the side.
"Whatever, just co at !"
Dash! Zipp!
With just a kick of his leg, Ma Zhen darted forward, leaving a series of after images in the air, brandishing his sword forward. Ma Zhen was very confident that his sword skill could pierce his opponent’s heart in just one trust.
However, the sword was perfectly halted and deflected to the side with just the boot’s tip. As if it was not enough to humiliate him in front of everyone, Ash stood atop the sword’s tip with just a leg.
He yawned wide, bored with this trivial fight. "Be serious please. If not, you better strip naked and walk away before I teach you about humility."
Ma Zhen’s grip tightened around the sword handle, as he forcefully launched his opponent upward, Ash used this very small window of opportunity to do a vertical spinning kick to the back and landed critically on Ma Zhen’s chin.
His lean fra exuded agility and strength, his eyes gleaming with a fierce determination. He took a deep breath, upon landing, and readied his stance.
Ma Zhen, anwhile, was flung high in mid air and fell to the ground a few seconds later. Both of his chin and inner mouth were bleeding severely.
"Hah! First hit! You lose, Ma Zhen! Now strip naked and walk away!"
Struggling to get up, Ma Zhen was undaunted, he hadn’t deployed his Sword Intent just yet. However he did not expect that his opponent would be this powerful and perceptive.
"It’s not over until I say it’s over!"
Notwithstanding the sharp, stinging pain under his mouth, Ma Zhen cladded his sword with his Pure Yang Qi, preparing to deploy his Sword Intent!
"Aisshh! What a stubborn kid! So slaps won’t be enough to teach you a lesson. Now, I have no choice but to kick your sorry ass in front of your parents!"
On the other hand, Ash smirked wide. He was enthralled to see and learn Ma Zheng’s Sword Intent.
Once the preparation was complete, Ma Zhen did a downward slash and launched his body with a single kick onto the ground. His eyes were filled with resolve to kill!
"Heavenly Stampede!"
Without further hesitation, Ma Zhen lunged forward while his Sword Intent roared and sliced the air. The fabric of reality seed to tore open as the Sword Intent was flying at blinding speed!
As Ma Zhen’s Sword Intent danced in the air, the wild movents left behind a trail of afterimages. Ash weaved between the attacks with uncanny agility, each of his kicks was able to deflect Ma Zhen’s attacks like swatting a bunch of flies.
Their clash was so powerful, sending shockwaves in every direction. Even the barrier that surrounds the testing ground was shaking violently.
Sparks flew as the two exchanged in a brutal fight. Ma Zhen was so confused, "How did he deflect my attack so easily with just a pair of legs?!"
Little did Ma Zhen know, his opponent has Black Diamond Body Constitution. Combined with the Primordial Qi that clad his legs, this half-baked Sword Intent wouldn’t be enough to even nicked his
Ma Zhen launched one last Sword Intent before his Pure Yang Qi was completely depleted and Ash answered with just a simple round house kick.
As the two energies collided, the sound reverberated outward and even reached the South Borough, attracting the citizens to co and see what was happening. Subsequently, Ma Yuan acknowledged his older son’s Sword Intent rushed toward the City Hall at a mont’s notice.
Both of them saw the opening, determined to end this fight, and erged as the victor. They aid for each other’s throat.
As the battle reached its zenith, the tip of his boot froze mid-air when it was an inch from Ma Zhen’s neck, Ash opted to not kill Ma Zhen just yet since Bai Suzhen inford him through telepathy that a powerful individual was approaching so fast.
"Why did you stop? What is going on inside your empty head?!" Ma Zhen inquired, his eyes were bloodshot. He would rather die in honor rather than being ridiculed by a stranger.
"I changed my mind." Ash said. He was poised, hand clasped behind him. "It’s still too early to kill you right now. Besides, I don’t want to offend your family. Furthermore, your father helped to recuperate after mortaly wounded by Lightning Liger."
"Did you just spare out of pity?!" Ma Zhen was even more enraged by the humiliation.
He had spent tens of thousands of Gold Coins to cultivate and train to reach this level but this stranger called him not even worthy to kill.
This by far was the worst that he had ever experienced in his career as a Cultivator.
"You bastard!"
Slap! Slap!
Before he could muster any word, Ash put him to sleep and fled the scene from the ti being while waiting the heat to get down first.
