《The One and Only》30. Shameless Sword Slave?
Advertisement
The lingering roaring sound of the tiger was still heard on the arena.
Lin Yun’s long hair was blowing in the wind. On that delicate face showed kind of unspeakable dominance.
Even the judge was caught in a trance. He even forgot to announce the result.
Only using his Tiger Fist, he had defeated Ma Kui who had achieved to the Completion level of his Purple Cloud Fist and mastered the Iron Defense skills.
For him, this was beyond his cognition.
What surprised him more was that someone could really make it to the Completion level of the Tiger Fist.
Through the whole Qingyun Sect, the judge was sure that no disciple would make it.
Or even through the whole Skywater Kingdom, no one could do this.
First, it was time consuming. Everyone thought it was a waste of time to spend so much time on one set of fist skills.
Second, it needed extremely high perception. Any kind of martial arts, whether it was high class or low class, it would already be a huge success if one could make it to Big Achievement, which meant one had mastered it and could choose other more advanced martial arts to practice, since it was too hard to practice it to the Completion level. It needed not only the practitioner’s conception, but also a perfect timing. Neither of them was dispensable.
As was known, even it was a set of entry level fist skills, it could have great power if one could make it to the Completion level.
But few people could insist till the end.
And none would have such willpower.
As the roaring sound gradually faded away, Lin Yun asked the judge who was still in the trance, “Could you please announce the result now?”
“Oh, of course. Sure.”
After coming to his sense, the judge hurried to say, “Now I announce Lin Yun…”
“Wait!”
Right at this time, someone shouted with anger and unsatisfactory and came down the arena.
People followed the sound and found it was Ma Kui who had just lost.

His face looked kind of pale, but was still in a good mental state. But anger could still be read on that face.
Anyway his Iron Defense gifted him an iron-like body. He still had the strength to talk after getting wounded by the Tiger Fist of the peak power.
Lin Yun frowned. He had no idea what was in Ma Kui’s sleeves.
“Ma Kui, what do you want? Are you trying to mess up with the order?”
The judge turned to and said in a cold voice.
Ma Kui knew the consequences. He turned to Lin Yun, “I dare not. I only want to say someone cheated, so I am not convinced.”
Apparently he meant Lin Yun.
“Who cheated? What does he mean?”
“It’s a normal thing to use tricks in a fight. What’s he trying to say?”
“Something is odd. Apparently Ma Kui doesn’t mean normal tricks.”
As the judge was about to announce the result, an incident occurred.
“Look at my hands. Do you really think he hurt my hands with his Tiger Fist?”
Ma Kui raised his right hand. His right hand was badly wounded, like having been cut by edged tools, even the bones exposed in some places.
“Urgh…”
“What’s going on?”
“It can’t be the Tiger Fist. The inner power of the fist could only break one’s bones of hands, or the internal organs. It wouldn’t leave sword cuts like this.”
“So the sword slave really used some shady means and violated the rules?”
“I think that’s quite possible. Maybe even the news saying he had made Small Achievement of the Flowing Wind Swordplay is fake.”
All disciples were shocked.
Plus, they were already had a word about Lin Yun’s winning streak. How could a sword slave have such outstanding performances?
Maybe two months ago, some of them had ever asked Lin Yun to maintain their swords.
And some bad words about him were heard.
The judge frowned and then came to check Ma Kui’s wounds.
The moment he saw them, the judge gasped. Those wounds were all as deep as to the bones, looking quite scary.

But he still tried to stay calm: “Ma Kui, even if Lin Yun has used some other means, according to the sect rules, as you know, the result is the result.”
In sect fights, anyone could adopt any means as long as he could win.
Except some extreme situations, like poisoning the opponent before the competition.
Kui Ma looked at Lin Yun and cried angrily, “I only want him to admit that he has used hidden weapons to break my Iron Defense. It’s not a shame as a sword slave before. The shameful thing is he used such tricks but still wants a fair win.”
“Shame on you, sword slave! You used tricks to win. Get off now!”
“Shame on you! Get lost!”
“Get lost!”
“Get lost!”
“Get lost!”
Those who sided with Ma Kui now tried to use this to guide the public opinion.
And those who had a word about Lin Yun’s background now began to oppose him.
All of a sudden, they all began to shout “get lost” together, arousing a big stir.
On seeing Ma Kui’s wounds on the hand, Lin Yun immediately understood what was going on.
He had already known that his Tiger Fist had integrated with his sword.
Especially after he had achievement the Completion level of his Tiger Fist, of course the power would be more dreadful.
But he couldn’t explain himself under such circumstances.
Without any evidence, Ma Kui insisted that Lin used hidden weapons and framed him.
And on hearing all those outer disciples were condemning him, Lin felt quite disheartened.
“Lin Yun, I’m gonna let you go only if you admit you have used hidden weapons in front of everyone.”
On seeing all of them sided him, Ma Kui immediately became swollen with arrogance and pushed Lin again.
“I wouldn’t admit something I haven’t done, even if you all say it. If you don’t believe me ,you can search me.”
Lin Yun looked rather calm, opening his arms to show his sincerity.
The situation was a little bit out of hand now.
Even those sect elders and inner disciples on the hathpace paid their attention.
“Normally speaking, Tiger Fist of the Completion level is inferior to the Purple Cloud Fist of Big Achievement.”
“Yeah, besides Ma Kui has mastered his Iron Defense.”
The inner disciple Wang Ning sneered, “I guess the sword slave has kind of psychological distortion after having been bullied for too long. He has already turned to his dark side. Such kind of people would do anything to win.”
Before he finished his words, Wang Ming specially glanced at Su Ziyao. Pity there was no change of that delicate and indifferent face, which made him a little disappointed.
“Yeah, yeah, you are quite right.”
All the other inner disciples agreed.
On seeing all these inner disciples had a word about Lin Yun who had been a sword slave before, the young master Bai Yufan frowned and said, “No one has ever made it to the Completion level of the Tiger Fist. So don’t make the judgment too early. Besides, Lin Yun has asked them to search him. We will know later.”
Even Yai Yufan spoke for Lin now, other inner disciples all shut their mouths.
This made Wang Ning quite upset. And he rolled his eyes at Bai Yufan.
Lin Yun’s sincerity really caught Ma Kui surprised.
“Senior brother Ma, search him, and let the sword slave go back to the Sword-washing Chamber.”
“Such a shameless bastard should stay in the Sword-washing Chamber as a sword slave.”
“Our Qingyun Sect doesn’t need such a shameless asshole!”
All the disciples asked Ma Kui to search him, which made Ma have a wolf by the ears now.
Ma Kui darkened his face and said in a cold voice, “All right. If I find any hidden weapon on you, you should kneel down before me to apologize.”
“OK.”
Lin Yun had kind of complicated feelings, but still agreed.

At The Precipice
Defenseless. Scared. Alone. That describes the life of Brock Carter as of late. Following his ‘death’ at the hands of a vicious magpie, Brock is rescued by the machinations of the newly instated, all-powerful System and thrust knee-deep into a brutal world catered only to the strong. Fluctuating between two states of being and trapped within a city ravaged by time, he is told to either seek out the mysterious ‘Source’, or die trying. He just hopes he can do it without scuffing his expensive suit in the process. ***** Honestly, I've just always wanted to write a story. I had a crack at it a few years back, but the entire thing fell apart before it even began. At The Precipice was originally written as a way for me to destress and play with System elements and characters, but eventually I decided that if I was gonna write, why not post it too? Writing's just a hobby of mine, so don't expect this to be at published novel level, I guess, or even anything of relative polish. Updates every Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs-Fri Average chapter length is 2000 - 3000 words ***** What to expect: - A semi-comedic/light tone, mixed in with a gritty world and brutal survival (not ever grimdark though) - An MC that thinks about what he's going to do and why he'll do it, even if his internal logic is lacking. Is a rather rational person, not often influenced by his emotions, but can be in extreme situations. - A plot heavily focused upon the MC, but one that will branch off to envelope the other characters in the world at times. Often, it's just other people's perspectives of him. - A story of power growth. While the MC is certainly going to be powerful, even over 100 chapters in from what I've written, he still isn't the strongest being on Earth, let alone the entire Multiverse. - Lots of gore, vivid fight descriptions, and often times deaths of people, some even somewhat important to the story ***** Things this story will never have: - Harems - An edgy, villainous MC - An MC that does jackshit about things for 'plot reasons'
