Chapter 871 - Xiao Tian Versus Lian Xun

"Haha." Lian Xun kept laughing without caring about Xiao Tian's feelings.

Sure, he knew that Xiao Tian was talented in martial arts, but his disciple was also a genius. She was even able to gain insight about battle instinct when she was still at the master stage.

'Young man, you're not the only one who earned the title of genius in martial arts. My disciple also got that title. I'm even sure she can defeat you in less than five minutes.'

Lian Xun was sure that Lan Ruoxi could defeat Xiao Tian in less than five minutes.

"Hehe." Lan Ruoxi could not help but giggle when she saw Xiao Tian's expression.

The corner of Xiao Tian's lips twitched when he saw Lan Ruoxi giggling. He could understand why Lian Xun was laughing, but he didn't expect her to make fun of him too.

"Young lady, why are you giggling?" Xiao Tian inquired, "Are you underestimating me too?"

"Ops! Sorry." Lan Ruoxi then covered her mouth and tried her best not to giggle.

"Young lady, your future lover is being underestimated by unimportant side character, so you should support me." Xiao Tian spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "How about you beat him for me?"

Of course, Xiao Tian was not serious when he asked Lan Ruoxi to fight Lian Xun.

Lan Ruoxi was amazed by his shamelessness. "Little guy, he is the one who is underestimating you, so why should I fight him? You should be the one fighting him, not me."

"Hiding behind a woman and asking her to beat me, huh? Tch, tch, tch! What a coward!" Lian Xun said as he shook his head.

"It's because I don't want to beat an old man like you." Xiao Tian made an excuse.

"How about this? If you can injury me once, I will make a good sword for you, but if you fail, you have to leave later." Lian Xun suddenly wanted to know how strong Xiao Tian was.

Lan Ruoxi instantly shifted her gaze from Xiao Tian to Lian Xun.

'Master, what are you saying? You are already at the high-level grandmaster stage and have a lot of fighting experience, so it's almost impossible for him to injury you. it's not like what you promised me earlier.'

Lan Ruoxi wanted to protest to Lian Xun because what he said was different from what they had agreed earlier. For this reason, she stared at him intently.

Of course, Lian Xun knew what she had in mind because he remembered his promise.

'Ruoxi, I only want to know how strong he is.'

Lian Xun also looked at Lan Ruoxi as if he was telling her through his gaze the reason why he wanted to fight Xiao Tian.

"Sure!" Xiao Tian agreed instantly.

Even though Xiao Tian knew that Lian Xun was a martial arts expert, he still wanted to try it.

'There is no harm in trying.'

Xiao Tian said in his head.

"Good! Wait here." After saying that, Lian Xun entered his house. Several seconds later, he returned to the front yard with a sword in his right hand. "Here, take it."

Xiao Tian was dumbfounded when Lian Xun gave him a real sword. "Are you sure you want me to use a real sword?"

"Why not?" Lian Xun was not afraid because he was much stronger than Xiao Tian. "I will give you fifteen minutes. If you can injury, it's your win."

"I hope you will keep your word later." after saying that, Xiao Tian looked at Lan Ruoxi. "Young lady, move a little. I don't want you to get hurt later."

After distancing herself from Xiao Tian and Lian Xun, Lan Ruoxi spoke, "Good luck, little guy."

"Un. I will win this fight for you." at this moment, Xiao Tian still had no idea that Lian Xun was a martial artist at the high-level grandmaster stage, so his defeat was already set in stone.

"Hey, are you going to fight me or flirt with her?" Lian Xun said as he crossed his arms over his chest.

*Inhale...Exhale…

Xiao Tian repeated the same process twice before focusing on Lian Xun.

'He is a martial arts expert, so I have to get serious.'

At this moment, Xiao Tian wavered whether he should use a secret technique immediately or not.

"You can attack me now." like before, Lian Xun was still acting calmly as if he was enjoying the beautiful scenery, not about to fight someone.

Without waiting for another second, Xiao Tian dashed towards Lian Xun and began attacking him.

*Slash…

Xiao Tian slashed his sword diagonally.

However, Lian Xun was able to dodge it easily. Both of his hands were even behind his back as if Xiao Tian was a child who wanted to attack him using a real sword.

Xiao Tian attacked Lian Xun again. He attacked from the left bottom towards the top left. Without pause, Xiao Tian changed his attack pattern to a 'Z' pattern.

His attacks flowed gently like flowing water. Because Xiao Tian knew that Lian Xun was an expert, he didn't want to give Lian Xun a chance to relax.

Left, right, front, back, above. Xiao Tian attacked Lian Xun from all directions. His attacks were fast and aimed at the fatal areas.

As Lian Xun was dodging Xiao Tian's attacks, he was a little amazed by Xiao Tian.

'His attacks are not bad! His attacks are flowing smoothly and aimed at the fatal areas too.'

But due to the big gap between them, Lian Xun was able to avoid Xiao Tian's attacks effortlessly.

"What's wrong?" Lian Xun uttered, "Didn't you say you would win the fight earlier? If it continues like this, you will lose later."

Lan Ruoxi, who was seeing the fight between Xiao Tian and Lian Xun from the sidelines, crossed her arms over her best.

'It seems like young master Xiao is stronger than before.'

Lan Ruoxi knew that Xiao Tian had diligently practiced martial arts because his movements and attacks were faster than when he fought Jufan.

Upon hearing Lian Xun's words, Xiao Tian instantly stopped attacking him.

Lian Xun was startled by Xiao Tian's attacks. "Eh! What's wrong? Are you giving up? Did you realize that you will never hurt me?"

*Inhale…Exhale….

Xiao Tian was controlling his breath, and his eyes were focused on Lian Xun.

Like Lian Xun, Lan Ruoxi was also startled by Xiao Tian's action.

'No. He is not giving up; instead, it's the opposite.'

Lan Ruoxi saw it once when Xiao Tian was fighting Jufan.

'Secret move! He wants to use his secret technique.'

Lan Ruoxi was sure that Xiao Tian wanted to use his secret technique.

Because Lian Xun had never seen Xiao Tian fight before, he had no idea as to why Xiao Tian suddenly stopped attacking him.

'No! He is not giving up!'

Lian Xun suddenly felt a cold aura slowly forming around Xiao Tian's body.

Currently, Xiao Tian was in the Iai stance.

'Moon style sword of drawing techniques- second ceremony- Earth Breaker.'

Because Xiao Tian wanted to win the fight quickly, he decided to use his secret technique.

*Slash… Slash… Slash… Slash… Slash…

Countless deadly slashes rained down on Lian Xun, intent on injuring him.

'Moon Sword Martial Arts!'

The expression of deep shock blossomed on Lian Xun's face when he learned that Xiao Tian was a Moon Sword Martial Arts School disciple.
