Chapter 157 - Thug Legend
In the VIP room where Han Fei and the others stayed, they could directly see the arena.
The room was quaintly decorated, the decorative patterns were of seagrass glyphs and fish grass sculptures, and the seats were made of polished corals. There were even springs in the corners of the room. The wall facing the arena had no windows but fences and large cutouts so that the people in the room could watch the games clearly.
At this moment, there were two fishing master-level teams fighting in the arena. The fight was quite intense. Someone had been pierced by a spear, but no one had died.
There were people engaged in five major professions in both teams, one was a manipulator and the other was a soul warrior.
Han Fei was surprised. “What if people are injured in the arena?”
Zhang Xuanyu answered, “There are spirit gatherers treating them. By the way, since spirit gatherers can heal injuries, can you?”
Han Fei raised his eyebrows. “Really? Why haven’t I heard of this?”
Luo Xiaobai said, “It depends on the direction you chose. Didn’t you choose the water control technique? Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Healing technique also takes time to learn.”
Han Fei complained in his heart. Old Jiang was too much. He didn’t even teach me any healing techniques. What if I’m injured?
Xia Xiaochan added, “Don’t be afraid. You’re so shameless that your skin must be very thick and can’t be pierced through.”
“Thank you! But if I master healing techniques, you can benefit from it too! No, I must go back and learn the healing techniques.”
Le Renkuang said, “You speak as if you can learn them immediately. Doesn’t it take a lot of time?”
Han Fei snorted. If I told you I became a spirit gatherer in six days, your eyes would pop out in shock.
Soon, one of the teams took the upper hand. Although the manipulator was strong, his teammates couldn’t resist the soul warrior of the other team, so the manipulator had to retreat one step after another.
Zhang Xuanyu sighed. “Stupid! Kill the soul warrior first!”
Xia Xiaochan scoffed. “Do you think they don’t want to?”
When they were discussing intensively, someone knocked on the door.
Bao Jin came and smiled. “Kids, are you ready?”
“Yes.”
Bao Jin continued, “Okay, your opponent has arrived and is preparing. Please come with me… Oh! By the way, does your team have a name? Our host can give you a promotion when introducing you.”
Han Fei looked up at him. “Thug Legend.”
Bao Jin: “???”
Zhang Xuanyu explained, “It means the legend of several thugs!”
The corner of Bao Jin’s mouth twitched. Legend? You mean you kids? Win the game first!
On the backstage.
Luo Xiaobai naturally played the role of captain. She looked at the team members and said, “Xiaochan, solve the other party’s manipulator as soon as possible; Zhang Xuanyu, get rid of their spirit gatherer; Le Renkuang, their soul warrior is yours; Han Fei, if I’ve guess right, our opponent’s hunter will mainly attack you and me. So, stay by my side and find a chance to solve their hunter.”
Han Fei said casually, “We don’t know anything about the other party. Will they have two soul warriors or two hunters?”
Luo Xiaobai thought for a while. “Then let’s fight free and choose our target respectively, but we must defeat them quickly to display the power of the Thug Academy.”
Xia Xiaochan smiled happily. “No problem. As long as their manipulator and spirit gatherer are not abnormally strong like Han Fei, it’ll be easy to defeat them.”
Le Renkuang patted his armor box. “OK, I only need to block their soul warrior. That’s simple.”
After a moment.
In the Arena.
Someone was shouting loudly, “My dear friends, your tickets today are simply worth the money. You have no idea what miracle you have encountered… The legendary Fourth Academy sent five students to participate in this tournament…”
“What? Fourth Academy, aren’t they farmers?”
“Yes! There is only a plantation over there! Do they still have students?”
“Where did they get the students? Have they recruited students?”
…
The host continued, “Like everyone, when I heard this news, I was shocked too. But the fact is so! I have to tell you that this time, the Fourth Academy sent a perfect team and its five-person team is a perfect combination, including a soul warrior, an armorist, a manipulator, a spirit gatherer, and a hunter… Where is the applause? Where are cheers?”
Clap… Clap…
The sparse applause sounded, and there were no cheers at all, although Han Fei and his teammates were a so-called perfect combination.
The host was a little embarrassed but he still continued. “It is even more incredible that only one of the five teenagers is a peak-level fishing master, and the other four are all junior great fishing masters. Surprised? Shocked? What you are about to see is a showdown between great fishing masters… Let’s welcome our Fourth Academy team with a warm applause. They are… The Thug Legend.”
The five of them entered the arena and their faces beamed with confidence and pride.
Zhang Xuanyu said to Han Fei, “The host is quite energetic, but his introduction is too casual. Why didn’t he introduce our spiritual beasts?”
Le Renkuang whispered, “Something like a spiritual beast is better to display on the spot. If he introduced them in advance, there won’t be a sense of anticipation.”
Xia Xiaochan was very excited. “I’ll kill the manipulator first.”
The host suddenly shouted excitedly, “Now, welcome our other team. They are already our old acquaintances. They used to be the champion of fishing master-level fights. They are Three Swordsmanship League… Can they who have double soul warriors continue to maintain their legacy? Let’s welcome the Three Swordsmanship League… Hooray…”
Han Fei glanced at the host and said, “This host really has the gift of gab.”
When Han Fei looked at Xia Xiaochan, he found that the girl was waving at the stands.
Han Fei was helpless. “Xia Xiaochan, what are you doing? Who are you waving your hand at? Nobody pays you any attention.”
Xia Xiaochan tilted her head. “I’m saying hello to them and telling them I’m going to kill.”
Everyone: “???”
…
In the stands.
Someone was puzzled. “Are the students of this Fourth Academy strong? Is such a pretty little girl a great fishing master?”
Someone added, “They haven’t experienced any actual combat, so their combat power must not be reliable. I bet they’ll lose.”
Someone nodded. “Perhaps the Fourth Academy gave them excessive resources to make them great fishing masters in order to gain fame. But they came to the wrong place. In the arena, people fight for real.”
…
On the field.
The other team had one woman and four men.
The woman was a manipulator. In front of her was a burly man, covered in heavy armor, who was an armorist. At the forefront, there were two soul warriors. And there was also a skinny man holding a dagger who was a hunter.
Han Fei pouted his lips. “Look, I guessed right. But they don’t have a spirit gatherer.”
Xia Xiaochan smiled. “This kind of quick battle doesn’t need a spirit gatherer.”
Han Fei froze for a while. “So, I’d better act as a soul warrior?”
With that, Han Fei stomped, and then a spirit gathering circle appeared.
Zhang Xuanyu glared at Han Fei. “Shameless.”
The host shouted, “Wow! The spirit gatherer of the Thug Legend has been ready. Ok, I announce that the game has officially started!”
In the stands, someone wondered. “Is this spirit gatherer a fool? Why did he expose himself from the very beginning? Doesn’t he know the other team has a hunter?”
“Forget it, I think it will be a wonderful battle. I didn’t expect this group of students to be the kind of green hands with no actual combat experience.”
In the field.
Xia Xiaochan and the other team’s hunter disappeared at the same time.
Zhang Xuanyu and Le Renkuang exchanged a glance. They would solve one soul warrior each.
In the blink of an eye, there were only Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai left on this side. In front of the manipulator of the other team was the armorist.
In the stands, the audience was bursting out with curses.
“Thug my ass! They’re going to lose.”
“Yes, their armorist doesn’t protect their spirit gatherer and manipulator! Are they stupid?”
“Boring, I thought this would be interesting.”
Even the host was speechless. How should I comment on this battle? Are they a group of idiots?
In the cursing voices, Han Fei suddenly moved. In the audience’s eyes, the spirit gatherer took out double knives and hacked at his opponent. He moved so fast that an arc was drawn in the air.
“Rotating Blade…”
For a time, sparks flew in the air. Han Fei grinned ferociously and pulled the Purple Bamboo Rod in his hand like using a slingshot, and a figure was struck out by Han Fei from the invisible state.
The next second, dozens of vines bound the hunter in a blink of an eye.
Han Fei stepped through the wind.
“Spiral Strike.”
BAM!
A huge cloud of dust rose and the other party’s hunter fell to the ground without even touching Han Fei, vomiting blood, and unable to get up at all.
In the stands, everyone was stunned.
So was the host.
Aren’t you a f*cking spirit gatherer? Were you teasing us by deliberately making a spirit gathering circle? It turns out that you’re a f*cking soul warrior?
