Commanding Wind and Cloud

Chapter 43: Fight Him Together

Translator: Udong Editor: IceTea

Rollin was hiding in a corner; both of his hands were holding onto his money bag tightly. After feeling the angry and raging stares from more than a dozen of his ‘customers’, he prayed to god for Qian Jin to appear soon. If Qian Jin didn’t, the money he made would no longer be safe, and he would probably receive an ass-whooping.

A series of sounds came from the outer area of the little forest. Qian Jin crawled through the weeds and trees and finally arrived. Qian Jin put one of his hands in the air and waved, “Hi everyone. I apologize. Sorry I’m a bit late.”

“A bit?” A high pitched, ear-piercing scream resonated in the little forest. “Qian Jin, you said that you are a bit late? Do you know that wasting other people’s time is like wasting their lives?”

Qian Jin scratched his head as he walked to the center of the empty circular space. He didn’t even need to look around to tell who that was. The angry shout came from the Managing Director who already hated him. After Qian Jin gave Caesars another beating yesterday, so Caeller probably hated Qian Jin to the bones.

Qian Jin rolled his eyes as he said, “I didn’t invite you here. You are the one who chose to waste your life, so why are you dragging me into this?”

The crowd was shocked; even the two challengers were shocked. “How dare Qian Jin talk to the Managing Director this way? Doesn’t he know that if he says things like this, the stingy Managing Director will get him back in the future?”

Rollin was the only one who was not surprised. He looked at Qian Jin and smiled. He knew his friend too well. If someone treated his friend with a bit of kindness, his friend would return ten times the kindness. However, if someone treated his friend with a bit of disrespect, his friend would return ten times the disrespect.

“You...” The Managing Director stared at Qian Jin fiercely. When he faced the student that had beat his nephew’s ass, he could never hold in his anger.

Rollin peeked at the other senior students and realized that they were all staring at Qian Jin with shocked expressions on their faces.

“You guys don’t understand Qian Jin,” Rollin shook his head. He still remembered that one time, Qian Jin got drunk and jumped onto a stone in front of the academy. He shouted to the sky, “We all live for the thrill and excitement! If I have to consider everything and hesitate to take actions, where is the fun in life?”

Principal Fick who was also there opened his eyes, which were almost hiding under his thick white eyebrows, as he stroked his white beard. Qian Jin’s hard encounter with the Managing Director had imposed mental pressure onto Zelda and Fabio Carras before the fight began. This was a good sign for the two students who were ranked higher than Qian Jin.

“Okay! I will see if you can still be this arrogant after you lose the fight.” The Managing Director backed off, just in case Qian Jin said something more daring such as, “Get out my way.”

After seeing the Managing Director take a step back, both Zelda and Fabio Carras took a step forward and looked at each other. They were trying to determine who would go first through eye contact.

“It’s okay, don’t bother.” Qian Jin rotated his sore shoulder and looked at the moon in the sky. “I’m kind of tired today and want to sleep early. To save time, how about both of you fight me at the same time?” he said.

......

Both Zelda and Fabio Carras were stunned for a second. They started to laugh immediately. “Who do you think you are? Durk?” They questioned Qian Jin.

“Durk? The number one seat in Grade One! Qian Jin knew who he was, even though he didn’t care about the gossip that went around the campus. He heard of Durk because of Durk’s name-defining battle.

Qian Jin heard that Durk secured his first seat in the Fighting Ability Rankings through just one battle. According to rumors, he took on two people: seventh seat Fabio Carras and eighth seat Revolver Skyblade. He defeated them in one battle and became the number one seat that no one in Grade One dared to challenge.

The seniors who were in the crowd were surprised as well. Although Qian Jin could easily win against the number eight seat Revolver Skyblade, he was facing the seventh seat and sixth seat. Also, a duel was very different from a group fight. “This kid is too arrogant!” they thought.

“Since Qian Jin said so, then you two can just fight him together...” The Managing Director said with a smile. His eyes were so squinted that it looked like they were closed. “Fight him together,” he said again.

Zelda and Fabio Carras stared at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other’s eyes. This Managing Director was known to be very stingy; if they didn’t obey him today, he would definitely make their lives harder. It wasn’t because they were scared or anything; they were just afraid that he might mess with their placements in the Warrior Energy Concentration Array in the future.

The Warrior Energy Concentration Array was vital to a warrior. If someone said that it would determine the future of a warrior, no one would say the person was exaggerating.

They slowly walked close to Qian Jin. From their body movement, Qian Jin could tell that they were stronger than Revolver Skyblade.

The Managing Director favored Zelda. This six seat in Grade One was from a military family; both his father and grandfather were warriors, and he received strict basic warrior training since he was a kid. His foundation was firmer than Revolver Skyblade.

Even in a duel, the Managing Director would think that Zelda would win, let alone the fact that Qian Jin wanted to fight Zelda and Fabio Carras at the same time.

Qian Jin couldn’t wait to finish up here and go into the Endless World. He wanted to chat with old Blake. After seeing both people walk up to him, he became a little excited as well.

“Start!”

The Managing Director announced. Zelda suddenly charged at Qian Jin like a vicious beast. He was faster than Fabio Carras by a head.

The crowd murmured as they praised Zelda; it was hard to beat the seventh seat by a head in terms of speed. Zelda raised his right leg and gave Qian Jin a side kick.

Qian Jin on the other hand immediately felt the kick coming his way; the kick was so powerful that before it reached Qian Jin’s head, he had already felt the sensation. His left eardrum felt a little uncomfortable under the high air pressure. He knew that if this kick landed on a wooden stake, the stake might even break.

“This kick is powerful and practical. He has really good fundamentals.” Qian Jin thought. He didn’t back off to dodge this kick, he went into it instead. He bent his right knee a little bit and tilted his center of gravity forward. As he formed this position that was hard to unite his strength, he raised his left arm. This was strange in the eyes of warriors.

Principal Fick was stunned; his vision blurred a little and he felt like Qian Jin who was in the battle was forging in a blacksmith shop.

Bam!

In the quiet little forest, the collision noises between muscles and bones, arms and legs sounded. Qian Jin’s Level 5 Warrior Energy exploded and it ran through Zelda’s Level 4 Warrior Energy like a car ran through a pedestrian. Qian Jin’s arm also slid by Zelda’s leg that hadn’t touched the ground yet, and his fist was aimed at Zelda’s head!

However, Fabio Carras was there after the collision between the two. Before he attacked, he saw Qian Jin raising his right arm and striking down at him.

At that moment, both Qian Jin’s arms were like two forging hammers and they were striking at the two opponents’ head.

The moment Qian Jin drew on his warrior energy, both the challengers and the crowd were shocked. Level 5 Warrior Energy! Qian Jin had Level 5 Warrior Energy?

This happened so fast that the two challengers didn’t even have time to think. Both of them made a cross with their arms and placed it above their heads; they wanted to block the devastating strikes.

Whoosh! Whoosh!...

There weren’t any colliding sounds. Zelda felt a wind blowing through his arm, and the fist that his arms were supposed to block didn’t arrive after a long time.

Fabio Carras slowly looked up and saw a fist paused between the cross his arms made and his head. He looked at Zelda and saw the same thing. In front of them, there was also a face that seemed tired and was smiling.

They didn’t block it! Zelda looked at the fist in front of his head and felt a chill up his spine. If he was in a death battle with an enemy, his head would have exploded by now! Also, he didn’t even sense the fact that the opponent had broken through his defense.

“Si...”

A few senior students gasped, and the sounds of the gasping were pretty clear in the quiet little forest. The process and the result of this battle were very surprising! It was almost an instant win!
