《Rise of the Great Emperor 》Chapter 17: Fight with Su Han
Advertisement
"What? Do you want to join the hunting squad just by fighting me? Let me tell you, you're going to lose miserably!" Su Han said strongly and put down his basket too. His aura exploded, giving off pressure that was equivalent to his rank as body training rank 6.
Body training rank 6 was quite common in this village. There were many of them who had reached that rank after they grew up. Amongst the adults, it was not rare to see body training rank 6, but amongst the youngsters, it was fairly rare.
Lin Xiao snorted and looked Su Han. In the past, Lin Xiao was already known as a little troublemaker but didn't really have much animosity with Su Han. But because of a little incident with Lin Xiao beating Su Han in a game when the latter wanted to show off to Xu Qin, the latter hated Lin Xiao.
It was public knowledge that Xu Qin was the most beautiful girl in this village. She didn't lack people who liked her but Lin Xiao was the only who was indifferent to her. But because of his blatant action to ignore her, Xu Qin remembered him and often criticize him.
Su Han… was jealous.
"Heh, I thought that the hunting squad is a fair place, but I guess I'm wrong," Lin Xiao said with a snort.
He thought that even though Su Hei and Su Han were part of the hunting squad, the people here were fair and just. But unfortunately, he was completely wrong. The villagers here were listening to what these two Su siblings were saying to each other.
How sickening.
"Don't spout lies, Lin Xiao!"
"Come."
Lin Xiao readied his stance and looked at Su Han with sharp gaze. He put his center of gravity a bit low because it was the best stance for those who trained with Mountain's Punch. Despite only trained with Wenren Yu for a short period of time, Lin Xiao had already adapted to the basic.

Su Han's face turned red in anger. He looked at Lin Xiao and laughed. "With you being one rank below me? Do you think you can defeat me?"
Thud!
Putting his basket to the side, Su Han rushed to Lin Xiao's direction. His fist was punched forward, executing Mountain Punch's perfectly.
Swish!
Lin Xiao dodged by evading to the side. Side stepping to the side, Lin Xiao twisted his body and punched forward.
Bam! Thud!
Su Han was pushed to the back as he looked at Lin Xiao with disbelief. That one punch felt extremely hurt as it hit his arm. At the most crucial moment, he managed to block the attack by lowering his arm. If not, his stomach would have been destroyed by that one punch.
Even now, his arm felt numb!
Was Mountain Punch truly capable of giving out power as much as that?
Lin Xiao looked at Su Han and flashed a mocking grin. That one smile instantly infuriated the already angry Su Han.
"You're seeking death!"
Swish!
Rushing forward once more, Su Han punched forward. Due to his anger, his speed actually increased, but his accuracy failed big time. Lin Xiao had more than enough space to evade to the side.
Raising his head, Lin Xiao could see Su Han was punching using his other hand once more. Lin Xiao swiftly stopped his step to be half step as he switched his hand and used the same movement.
Mountain Punch!
Bang!
This time, Su Han had no time to react as the punch landed squarely on his stomach. Lin Xiao waved his hand lightly and readied his stance once more. One of the lessons from living in wilderness was that one should never lower their guard unless their enemy had died!
His eyes were looking at the crouching Su Han with a pity. If only Su Han's guard was a bit lower, he might have the chance to turn Su Han into a eunuch with his punch just now. Alas, the chance had passed.

"How could it be possible that Mountain Punch be that strong?" Su Han yelled.
His stomach felt as if it was ruptured just from the punch that Lin Xiao delivered. While it might not as bad as he thought it was, Su Han knew that the wound was completely different than what he could exert.
They were all supposed to be learning the same skill and have similar capabilities. But why Lin Xiao grew much stronger?
Lin Xiao grinned. "Is that all you got?"
"You…!"
Disregarding his pain, Su Han jumped up and stormed towards Lin Xiao once more. His hand was about to land another punch when a strong arm pulled him to the back.
Bang!
Crashing onto the wall, Su Han was stunned speechless. He looked at the man who pushed him to the back. The moment he recognized the face, there was no longer any energy left for him to even get angry.
"B…Brother?"
"What are you doing causing ruckus here?" Su Hei asked in cold tone. The aura from that of body training rank 8 suppressed everyone on the scene. Even if they wanted to speak, they felt as if they would be unable to do so under the heavy pressure.
"That's…."
"Leader, we're only testing the result and Little Xiao here can't accept the result."
"Oh, you can't accept the result?" Su Hei turned his head to look at Lin Xiao. Even if he knew that his brother was the one at wrong, he would always defend his family no matter what the situation was.
Who would care what the truth was?
Lin Xiao kept his body straight and looked at Su Hei. He slowly turned around and picked his basket. "Didn't you say that if I can bring back a fish, I'll pass? Now it seems that you're not willing to adhere to your words, Leader Su?"

8 545Where did I wake up?
A pretty standard story about a man that gets transferred to a new world, and gains a system to help him survive. This is pretty close to the first draft of this story, so there will be grammar mistakes until I get down to fixing them. Synopsis, genre and tags will also change as I get more writing done. I will try to release two to three short chapters a week. I don't own the cover image; it is just something I found online.
8 184The Oddity: The One Who Does Not Belong
A purple ball descended from the sky, a gift from the primordial dragons, granting many races of the world access to magic. Unfortunately, humans were not one of those. During the great war, the magicless humans were nothing more than fodder, meat shields. Until one day, their powers awakened. After the war, with the ability to now wield, fire, water, earth, wind, or lightning, powerful magicians gathered to build a safe haven for humans, the Kaldora Empire. Before the humans had magic, other races prospered with it. But, within their midst, there were... oddities. People with an affinity for two elements. Each one leaving some sort of disaster in their wake. Each one, not quite fit for this world. A young boy's family, killed in an accident, only he and his sister survived the night. After that, they were split up, each taken in by a different relative. It has been eight years since the flames engulfed his home and most of his family. With his magic powers finally showing itself, he goes off to a magic academy to better learn about his newfound powers. But as he grows, something else does as well. The voice inside his head, the thing that influences his thoughts, the monster that he wish was gone, the devil inside his heart. This is a tale about connections. NOTE: The story will be slow for many of the chapters and the time will also match it, ex: goes by day by day. The time mostly will be used for introducing and adding to characters. It won't pick up until somewhere in the twenties but there will be action and events earlier on such as the missions. Just a fair warning. Order of Phantasmal Architects
8 184Rebirth
Rebirth, the process of being reborn. Why does it happen and who really qualifies. We will seek to look into the these questions by following the life of Richard as we experiences this process first hand. We will follow his life and his fight against the evil blue boxes and what comes with all of them. ------------------------------- Update 04-24-18 Just ran a spelling and grammar check on the existing chapters and corrected a lot of little issues. ------------------------------- Just so you know, do not expect detailed sex scenes, or a lot of gore and such. Profanity is probably a given, I added the tag today....I mean you've seen how the Blue Box God talks....I'm shocked our MC has keep his cool so far. Also just FYI, I've got the entire per chapter outline complete for what will end up being book 1. That being said I've discovered over the years that a good outline lasts until you begin to wrote the chapter out. What that means is that even with a good outline because I tend to rethink thing out 4 or 5 times while I write them that it can hold up a chapter from being released. I'd rather hold up a story to make it flow better than rush something out. So while you might see at times a very aggressive release rate, at times you might wonder what happened to me because I've stopped posting. The reason being that after I wrote the chapter I decided it either sucked, didn't flow right or I just decided the direction things were headed no longer seemed right. So I'll stop, review and decide if I need to rewite all of the outlines to changes things up and then rewrite the chapter, or possibly go back and make changes to older chapters if needed. By the way, if I ever decide something needs to change, I will let you know which chapters changed and I'll give you a quick outline of the changes so you can skip the reread if you want. Yes a lot of this story will be told from the third person prespective, though we will listen to Richard tell his story. Expect a lof of behind the scene components. I've never published here before so expect it to take me a try or 2 to get an understanding of the formatting and such. Also I do not post a schedule. Sorry but real life always comes first but I will try and get things steddy.
