Monarch Of Time

Chapter 69 - 69 Gaining experience

Of course, little Black had already warned Shun Long about the ambush beforehand, but he didn't bother changing directions. He was participating in the 'outer sect examination', what would he gain by avoiding every fight?

After taking a look at the blonde young woman and sensing her early rank 3 earth grade strength, Shun Long's eyes focused on the white-robed young man.

This young man who had a red sword on his waist was at the middle stage of rank 3 in earth grade, and he was the strongest person in their group.

The man's eyes were also staring intently at Shun Long, as he then turned his head to look at the pretty young woman beside him before speaking gently

''Lei Xiang, I will take care of this guy. You can take care of that guy from the 'Roaring wind pavilion'.''

''Yi Zeming, are you okay?'' the blonde girl asked the young man after she saw him staring at Shun Long intently

Yi Zeming had a feeling that Shun Long was more dangerous than Yong Ru, even though he couldn't sense his strength, so he decided to test him out directly. As for the rest of the disciples, they had surrounded Shun Long and Yong Ru as they waited for orders.

Although Lei Xiang was also from the 'floating cloud sect', she didn't have any scruples teaming up with a disciple of the 'Flying sword sect' or attacking another disciple from her sect. You could do anything you wanted in this 'outer sect examination' after all and the sect wouldn't care.

Yong Ru pulled out his blue sword as he stared at Lei Xiang who was holding a yellow bow in her hands.

''What do you think? Do you feel like surrendering your survival points now?'' Lei Xiang asked Yong Ru smilingly.

Yong Ru shook his head as he charged straight towards her.

Shun Long instead, looked at Yi Zeming, who had unsheathed his bright red sword as he said to the disciples around him

''Make sure to assist Lei Xiang properly!''

As they heard Yi Zeming's words, both the disciples from the 'Flying sword sect' as well as the 'floating cloud sect' who had surrounded them, charged towards Yong Ru while Lei Xiang had taken cover behind the trees as she shot arrow after arrow at him.

''Draw your weapon!'' Yi Zeming said sternly but Shun Long simply shook his head as he clenched his left fist.

He could use his 'Monarch's Domain' to take care of the guys attacking Yong Ru as well as this Ye Zeming, but he didn't do so for 2 reasons.

The first reason was that Yong Ru had already seen the inexplicable scenario where Wong Huo had died 'in a split second' a few days ago and he would instantly connect the dots if the same thing happened again now. While the second reason was that Yong Ru didn't seem to be in a bad spot and was seemingly smiling as he fought the disciples of the 'Flying sword sect' and the 'floating cloud sect'.

These disciples' strength was ranging between rank 9 in qi condensation while the strongest among them was just at the middle rank 1 in earth grade. However, Lei Xiang's arrows that were covering these disciples were truly dangerous.

''Are you looking down on me?'' Yi Zeming roared in anger after seeing that Shun Long wasn't using a weapon, as he then rushed towards him with his sword in hand.

Shun Long didn't directly attack Yi Zeming and instead focused on dodging his attacks. With the enhancement in his speed from the 'Monarch's Eternal body' he could actually keep up with Yi Zeming's fast attacks as he dodged his sword again and again.

Yi Zeming was advancing forward while Shun Long was moving backwards, but no attack had connected with him just yet. This was a very frustrating fighting style where you couldn't hit your opponent no matter how hard you swung your sword, but the truth was that this was dangerous for Shun Long as well.

It wasn't easy to avoid a sword every time and it took a lot of mental focus as well as immense physical strength, to keep up with the speed of Yi Zeming's sword.

And yet, Shun Long could sense that he was getting better and better at fighting the more this fight dragged on. He had already spotted a few openings during Yi Zeming's attacks, but because he wasn't prepared earlier, he couldn't take advantage of them.

Yi Zeming seemed to be getting increasingly frustrated as beads of sweat were now rolling off his face as he roared

''Is dodging all you can do brat?''

Shun Long however ignored him as he continued to dodge repeatedly. Although his body had been reforged from scratch with the help of the 'Monarch's Eternal body', Yi Zeming's sword was definitely at rank 3 bronze grade if not higher, and Shun Long was sure that he wouldn't be able to withstand it just yet, if his fist were to directly clash with a rank 3 bronze grade sword.

Yi Zeming was starting to get tired after hacking with his sword unsuccessfully for such a long time. Hitting your opponent and missing them, were 2 completely different concepts. Constantly hitting the air affected not only your physical performance but your mental ability as well, as it both tired the mind and the body much more compared to if your attacks were getting blocked.

Yi Zeming had started hacking senselessly around him feeling extremely frustrated, as Shun Long's eyes narrowed while he gathered his strength in his right hand.

As Yi Zeming's sword once again slashed the air, Shun Long's right hand directly collided with Yi Zeming's lower ribs as a cracking sound was heard loudly before he was sent flying through the air.

Shun Long had used more than 80% of his strength in this punch and the results were devastating.

Yi Zeming's body flew through the air as it landed a few dozen meters away, on Yong Ru's and Lei Xiang's battlefield.
