Martial Hero Rebirth

Chapter 18: Both entering ranks of ten strongest new disciples

Squeak

The gate of the hundredth courtyard opened. A youth walked out and took a look at Yu Hai with contempt, "Yu Hai, my defeated opponent, do you think just because you obtained some pointers from Senior Brother Lin Yi will enable you to defeat me?"

"Not everyone can become Jiang Xiaoyu!"

"Jiang Xiaoyu could enter the ranks of one hundred strongest new disciples doesn't mean you can enter as well!"

"My defeated opponent will always remain as my defeated opponent!"

Yu Hai didn't speak anything. He unsheathed his sword directly to express himself.

"Humph!" The youth sneered and looked at Yu Hai with contempt then unsheathed his sword as well.

"Yu Hai, I will let you see my real strength which will make you feel despair!"

The youth roared. His sword shook and let out innumerable sword afterimages.

Like a nocked arrow which had been released, he charged towards Yu Hai.

Yu Hai stared at the youth who was charging towards himself. Just when the youth was about to reach him.

He suddenly took a step forward and let out a stab!

Clang

Just one attack and the youth's sword was broken. Yu Hai's sword was already on the youth's shoulder.

Yu Hai won!

He sheathed his sword expressionlessly and walked towards the ninety-ninth courtyard.

Wow!

The onlookers went into uproar and looked at each other. Followed by a boom sound, they cried out in alarm.

"Did I see wrongly? Yu Hai only used an attack and defeated his opponent?"

"You didn't see wrongly. It really just took an attack!"

"That's to say, Yu Hai has entered the ranks of one hundred strongest new disciples?"

"Of course. Just one attack is enough to take the life of someone in the ranks of one hundred strongest new disciples. This is too terrifying!"

"This is all thanks to Senior Brother Lin Yi. Senior Brother Lin Yi is too powerful. Two persons he guided has both entered the ranks of one hundred strongest new disciples!"

"With Yu Hai's strength, he can rush directly to the top ten position ah!"

"Stop talking and let's go to the ninety-ninth courtyard quickly. A big drama is going to play!"

"You are right. Let's go quickly and occupy seats otherwise there will be no more seats left!"

A group of people moved towards to the ninety-ninth courtyard next door. In a blink of eye, there was no onlookers left at the hundredth courtyard, leaving the hundredth ranker, no, it should be former hundredth ranker who stood in front of the hundredth courtyard's gate as dumb as a wooden chicken.

"I lost? I actually lost to my defeated opponent, Yu Hai? How is this possible?"

"How can I unable to block even one attack from him?"

The youth was too shocked. He couldn't accept the fact that he was defeated in a single attack by someone he defeated once.

In front of the ninety-ninth courtyard, Yu Hai held his sword in his chest.

"Yu Hai has come to challenge!"

The ninety-ninth ranker walked out to receive the challenge. After completing the procedure, both of them drew their swords.

Once again, Yu Hai only used one attack!

The sword light flashed past. His attack speed was so fast it was frightening.

His sword has rested on the shoulder of the ninety-ninth ranker.

The ninety-ninth ranker had been defeated!

Everyone was shocked.

"He defeated his opponent in one attack again!"

"Yu Hai is so heaven-defying!"

"Too powerful, too stimulating, too exciting! How I wish I can have this kind of strength as well, to be able to defeat the one hundred strongest new disciples in one strike!"

Amidst the crowd's exclamation, Yu Hai expressionlessly walked towards to the gate of ninety-eighth courtyard.

He wanted to use the most drastic method to tell everyone.

Yu Hai was going to rise and no one could stop it!

.

The second day, Yu Hai fought along with his sword until he entered the ranks of eighty strongest new disciples while Jiang Xiaoyu entered top fifty.

The third day, Yu Hai entered top fifty and Jiang Xiaoyu entered top forty.

The fourth day, Yu Hai entered top thirty and Jiang Xiaoyu entered top thirty as well. Both of them kept their speed consistent.

The fifth day, Yu Hai entered top twenty and Jiang Xiaoyu enterd top twenty too.

The sixty day, both Yu Hai and Jiang Xiaoyu entered the ranks of ten strongest new disciples!

The seventh day, Yu Hai challenged Han Bai but lost. Jiang Xiaoyu similarly lost as well. Afterwards, both of them challenged each other. Yu Hai won and was placed at the third rank, and Jiang Xiaoyu at fourth.

In seven days, both Yu Hai and Jiang Xiaoyu entered the ranks of ten strongest new disciples, causing an uproar in lower courtyard.

Between two of them, Yu Hai had amazing attack. Each time he battled, he would always attack actively and resolve the battle in fast manner. He practised Huashan Swordplay to an extremely fast degree.

He was fast in initiating the attack. He was even faster during attacking!

It was so fast that his opponents were unable to react. Those who had same strength as him, facing his sword, were unable to gain the upper hand at all.

Yu Hai was also nicknamed by the others as "Yu Hai the Fast Sword".

Jiang Xiaoyu's style of attack was different from Yu Hai. He preferred to counter his opponents' moves, excelled in defence, and exhaust his opponents. When his opponents didn't have energy left, his Huashan Swordplay would reach the state of being able to attack and defend.

However, during their battle, Yu Hai's fast sword won slightly in the end.

Both of them who entered the ranks of ten strongest new disciples were able to sit firmly on their third and fourth seat.

Lin Yi's reputation, along with both of them, rose rapidly among the new disciples. All of them knew that Senior Brother Lin Yi wasn't only had powerful, unfathomable strength. He was also excellent in giving pointers regarding martial arts. Those who was guided by him were able to surpass their peers.

The image of Senior Brother Lin Yi who had powerful strength and excelled in giving pointers gradually spread in lower courtyard.

Even in upper courtyard, there were some peole who came to know the existence of Lin Yi.

.

In the first courtyard for new disciples.

"Yu Hai, you like to attack actively. I will gift you a sentence: Of all martial arts in the world, only fast speed is unbreakable! By pushing speed to the limits, there will be surely a place for you in the pugilistic world in the future!"

In the backyard, Yu Hai and Jiang Xiaoyu stood in front of Lin Yi who was looking at Yu Hai.

"Of all martial arts in the world, only fast speed is unbreakable"

Yu Hai ruminated over this sentence. The light in his eyes was getting brighter then suddenly his body shook for a bit, seemingly comprehended something. He looked at Lin Yi excitedly, "I have remembered it Senior Brother Lin Yi. I will push my speed to its limit from now on."

Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction, "To become a martial arts expert, one needed to find one's own way and style suitable to oneself. Only by this, one could enter the ranks of peak experts."

"Senior Brother Lin Yi, then which style is suitable for me?"

Jiang Xiaoyu who was standing by his side was excited and looked at Yu Hai enviously then raised the question.

With regards to Yu Hai who emerged suddenly and defeated him, Jiang Xiaoyu was unwilling to accept it. Yet no matter what, he was unable to find ways to subdue Yu Hai.

It seemed like the only way to subdue him was only by pure strength. This made him felt depressed.

Thus, he was in urgent of finding other ways to subdue Yu Hai.

The emergence of Yu Hai completely disrupted Jiang Xiaoyu's plan to challenge the ranks of one hundred strongest new disciples and stay undefeated.

Moreover, Yu Hai progressed very quickly. This made Jiang Xiaoyu felt pressured. He didn't dare to practise leisurely anymore as he had been chased by Yu Hai from behind and surpassed by him.

Jiang Xiaoyu felt enormous pressure upon himself.

As martial arts practitioner, who didn't like to seek to prevail over the others?

Especially during the youth period, no one wanted to lose out to anyone else!

Jiang Xiaoyu started to practise martial arts and study them deeply.

Lin Yi had seen all of these. Though he didn't let out any expression externally, but he felt really happy deep inside his heart.

This move of him was made correctly. A rival was needed in order for Jiang Xiaoyu to feel pressured.

By competing with each other would let both of them progress at a quicker pace.

Lin Yi didn't want that the persons he had guided, due to unable to keep up with his footsteps, ended up being his burden instead.

He formed a team so that it can be helpful to him.

As for subordinates who would drag him down, he wasn't interested at all.

Fortunately, how both Yu Hai and Jiang Xiaoyu competed with each other, learned from each other, and progressed together didn't let Lin Yi feel disappointed.

"Xiaoyu, you are suited to defence. I see that everytime you battled, you defended very well and managed to achieve balance between offence and defence. This is your advantage and you should keep moving forward in this path and be truly able to achieve balance between offence and defence! No matter how strong your opponent is, you should be able to defend and counter anytime!"

Lin Yi looked at Jiang Xiaoyu and gave his review.

Jiang Xiaoyu nodded heavily. He had found out this advantage of his as well. After affirmed by Lin Yi, he had decided to keep using this style and progress even further.

It would be the best if he could surpass Yu Hai and defend against his fast sword.

Currently, both of them had reached intermediate stage in both Huashan Swordplay and Huashan Movement Technique.

"Both of you, what you have to do next is to practise well both Basic Sword Technique and Basic Arts of Lightness and reach intermediate stage for both of them. Only by then could you reach advanced stage. Otherwise if you don't practise these basic techniques well, you would never be able to reach advanced stage in this lifetime!"

As an experienced person, Lin Yi was aware how to reach advanced stage in martial arts.

In fact, there were strict rules regarding skills in the game system.

Only by reaching the same stage in basic techniques, one could move towards higher stage.

If Lin Yi wanted to reach perfection stage in Huashan Movement Technique, then his Basic Arts of Lightness needed to reach perfection stage as well. Otherwise even if he had 100,000 combat experience points, he wouldn't be able to use it too.

However, it was quite different for Huashan Swordplay. As Huashan Sword had Basic Sword Techniques included, even if he didn't practise Basic Sword Technique, he would still be able to upgrade Huashan Swordplay to perfection stage.

Each major factions' introductory martial arts had their own advantages. One of them was this.

One didn't need to spend extra experience to upgrade basic techniques and waste time.

"Alright, both of you should go back now and think about what I have said!"

After sending both of them, Lin Yi took out his sword and started practising.

What he practised was still Huashan Swordplay and Huashan Movement Technique.

By practising Huashan Swordplay, he would be able to temper himself and upgrade his attack attribute point.

The experience points it produced would serve as the basis to upgrade basic attributes points.

Only by completing the entire move, he would be able to temper himself.

By using Huashan Swordplay to battle, that belonged to the category of using martial arts to attack and it would not trigger the effect of tempering oneself. Hence, during battle, one wouldn't be able to obtain combat experience points.

To obtain combat experience points, one could only keep practising!

This was true for both players and natives.

The advantage of being a player was that during battle, they still could obtain combat experience points during battle and they could upgrade their martial arts.

However, Lin Yi's game system had changed. The combat experience points obtained during battle became achievement rewards. This way, obtaining combat experience points became even harder.

This was also the reason why Lin Yi practised diligently.

After practising diligently these past few days, two of his silver grade martial arts, Huashan Swordplay and Huashan Movement Technique had reached fifty thousand experience points. He was short of fifty thousand experience points for both in order to upgrade them at a hundred thousand experience.

He needed to keep practising in seclusion. The day he reached perfection stage for both skills would be the day he challenge the ranks of one hundred strongest lower courtyard disciples!

Nope this time I didn't make mistake. It was indeed Huashan Movement Technique () and Basic Arts of Lightness (). So probably Movement Technique and Arts of Lightness will be used intermittently, depending on the raw.
