Chapter 13 Rolling Up to Receive Death

  "It's just a friendly competition, not a life-or-death duel. As the leader of the school, how could you use such a vicious move on your junior brother? Where is your conscience?"

  Zhang Shan suppressed his anger and coldly shouted at Bai Shaoyang.

  His gaze fell on the judge's face, and the chill in his eyes made Sun Yiming, as a coach, feel a palpitation.

  "Zhang Shidi, this is a misunderstanding. You know that my swordsmanship emphasizes swift and decisive killing, so whether it's against an enemy or in a test of skills, I always go all out. Just now, I couldn't pull back in time, but it wasn't intentional."

  Bai Shaoyang's face, which was usually not talkative and smiling, now had a smile on it, and his eyes fell on Gao Peng.

  "I think Gao Shi Di just suffered some superficial injuries, it should be nothing serious. However, Gao Shi Di's strength has not improved but instead regressed, I'm afraid he has been neglecting his cultivation for some time now, getting a bit of a lesson is good for him."

  He heard that he not only had no apologies, but also took the opportunity to speak ill of him, Lei Meng was so angry that his face suddenly turned red and he was about to shout abuse.

  "Ma Zi, don't be impulsive, scolding him is not only useless but also makes the supervisor look down on us."

  Zhang Shan pressed down on his shoulder and Lei Meng calmed down.

  "You first take Gao Peng to find the doctor in the hall to check, can't be careless, today's situation is not right, Mengzi you don't participate in the next match." He calmly instructed.

  "What about you?" Lei Meng asked him, staring at him.

  Zhang Shan snorted: "A feud doesn't last overnight, of course I'll continue to participate in the competition. If Bai Shaoyang wants to play dirty tricks on us, then so be it."

  Seeing their worried expressions, he smiled and comforted them.

  "I've advanced to the Lingwu realm, he's just at the same level as me. Even if I'm not winning, I can still defend myself, you guys can rest assured."

  The two of them lit up at once and immediately put their minds at ease, then both had a strange and astonished expression.

  "Alright, it's better for you to recover quickly, if there's anything else you want to ask, just say so."

  Lei Meng nodded and supported Gao Peng off the field, heading towards the medical center inside the arena.

  After the two left, Zhang Shan returned to his own position, waiting for the game to proceed, and also waiting for the moment when he would meet Bai Shaoyang.

  The match continued for two more games before Zhang Shan's name was called.

  His opponent was named Zhou Zhongming, eighteen years old this year. He was an ordinary civilian student from a common family background. He was usually taciturn and rarely spoke. Through his own efforts, he had advanced to the seventh level of Qi Wu Jing in just three years after enrolling in school.

  After the judge declared the start, Zhou Zhongming cautiously sized up Zhang Shan.

  "Last month I heard that Zhang brother severely injured Bai Shaohai within three moves, a month later, his strength should have improved even more, right?"

  "It's just luck, Brother Zhou is being too kind."

  Zhang Shan didn't know what he meant by saying this, and humbly replied.

  "Zhou Zhongming shook his head: 'I know I'm not Bai Shaohai's opponent, and since you can easily defeat him, I'm probably not your opponent either. However, now that we're on the stage, I'd like to learn a few moves from you. Please spare me, Brother Zhang.'"

  This week, Ming looked honest and kind, but was actually quite clever, neither wanting to give up without a fight nor hoping to be too harsh on himself.

  However, apart from the Bai brothers who had a feud with him, he naturally wouldn't harm other disciples for no reason.

  Zhang Shan smiled and said: "Fellow students should be considerate of each other, let's just drop it here. Brother Zhou doesn't have to worry."

  "Thanks, brother! Now I'll take a thick-skinned approach."

  After finishing speaking, he took a deep breath and stepped forward, unleashing the Golden Vajra Subduing Demon Fist towards Zhang Shan.

  Zhang Shan didn't use his full strength at the moment, only using 70-80% of his power to fight him, and also stretching his muscles and bones as a warm-up.

  The two men exchanged dozens of moves back and forth, but in the end, Zhou Zhongming used his strongest move, only to be easily neutralized by Zhang Shan, who countered with a palm strike that sent him stumbling backward seven or eight steps.

  Zhou Zhongming stood with his fists clenched and said bluntly: "The difference in strength is too great, I admit defeat, please don't laugh at me."

  He bowed and jumped off the stage.

  The referee immediately announced Zhang Shan's victory and advanced to the top 16.

  In the next match, Zhang Shan consecutively defeated a Qi Wu seventh-grade and an eighth-grade student, advancing to the semi-finals.

  Bai Shaoyang did not appear in the match after defeating Gao Peng, and his opponents chose to concede in three consecutive rounds, thus entering the final without making a move.

  Wu Qishun shook his head on the stage, no matter whether Bai Shaoyang's opponent was bribed in advance or intimidated by his reputation and did not dare to fight him, it all showed that the style of the academy had already deteriorated to an irretrievable degree.

  Zhang Shan once again stepped onto the stage, defeating his opponent in this round. He will meet Bai Shaoyang in the final match.

  His opponent this time was a student ranked second in the academy, named Sekiya Kanno, with a cultivation of nine layers of Qi Wu.

  Zhang Shan's eyes revealed a hint of solemnity, Guan Ye had always been one of the strongest students in the academy, and even before Bai Shaoyang entered the Spiritual Martial Realm, he was someone to be somewhat wary of.

  He awakened as a Cyan Wolf Martial Soul, with endurance and attack power that were quite impressive. He cultivated the Seven Kill Blood Refining Hand, which was fierce and sinister.

  Kanaya stood calmly in front of Zhangshan, his eyebrows furrowed as if he was having trouble making a decision.

  "I can sense your aura, shouldn't you have advanced to the Spiritual Martial Realm by now?"

  When the judge announced the start of the game, he raised an eyebrow and suddenly spoke out, without waiting for Zhang Shan's response, he continued to talk to himself.

  "At that time, I heard that you, Bai Shaohai, had used your full strength to defeat three moves and sparked my interest in fighting against you. Unexpectedly, just a month later, you broke through to the Spiritual Martial Realm."

  "I've just recently advanced, but Guan brother has a deep foundation and has already taken half a step into the Spiritual Martial Realm. He may not necessarily be unable to defeat me." Zhang Shan said calmly.

  "Normally, I'd be interested in trying it out, but now, I don't want to be a stepping stone for others. I want to use Guan to exhaust our opponent, is that something so easily done?"

  Kanaya glanced at the white Shōyō below and said a sentence before turning around and walking out of the arena.

  "I'd rather hope Brother Zhang can defeat someone with the surname Bai, heh, that would be interesting."

  Seeing him jump off the stage, Zhang Shan felt a little surprised, but thinking about it, it was reasonable. Guan Ye had always been at odds with Bai Shaoyang, and if he fought with himself, he would inevitably suffer a double loss, which would help the white family instead.

  He turned his head and looked in Bai Shaoyang's direction, it was finally time to cut off all ties of friendship and enmity.

  "Bai Shaoyang, come and accept your death!"

  He took a deep breath and suddenly shouted loudly.

  Bai Shaoyang's face flashed with a fierce aura, and he coldly snorted as he leaped onto the stage. Although Geng Xin's sudden forfeit had caught him off guard, he was still extremely confident in this battle.

  The eyes of all the spectators fell on the two, and as the rounds went by, Zhang Shan's advancement to the Lingwu realm was also understood by the students.

  Although it is unknown how Zhang Shan was able to achieve this in a short period of time, there is no doubt that the match between the two martial artists who were the first to enter the Spiritual Martial Realm among the disciples will be extremely exciting.

  Not to mention they have a deep grudge between them, this will be a match that will not end until one of them dies.
