Overlord of the Wilderness

Chapter 43: Chapter 40: Beaten into Kneeling and Begging for Mercy

Startled Swan Step!

With the medicinal power in his body fully absorbed, Zhaang Ye had no intention of playing around any longer. He abruptly executed the Startled Swan Step. His body dodged Zhaang Yun’s attack like a wisp of smoke, and he followed up with a Hand Blade strike!

Zhaang Ye’s strike was simple, but when combined with his Footwork Technique, it possessed an uncanny prowess. Zhaang Yun saw only a blur before Zhaang Ye’s palm, whistling fiercely through the air, came chopping down on his shoulder!

Zhaang Yun was massive. Faced with Zhaang Ye’s strike, he had no way to dodge and could only take the blow.

KRAK!

Zhaang Yun had cultivated his Wild Bull Force to the Minor Achievement Realm, making the muscles all over his body as hard as wood. He would have been completely unharmed even if a Martial Arts Second Layer expert had struck him with a palm.

Unfortunately for Zhaang Yun, Zhaang Ye was no Martial Arts Second Layer Martial Artist. He was a genuine Martial Arts Third Layer Martial Artist, through and through!

Furthermore, Zhaang Ye’s strength was far greater than it appeared on the surface!

When Zhaang Ye’s Hand Blade struck, there was a soft slicing sound. A gash had been cut into Zhaang Yun’s shoulder, and fresh blood immediately sprayed out!

"Ah..." Fury surged through Zhaang Yun. ’I can’t believe it! Not only have I failed to gain any advantage over Zhaang Ye, but he’s actually wounded me!’

Enraged, he lashed out with both palms, striking as fast as the wind. But by then, Zhaang Ye had already dodged aside.

After that, Zhaang Ye attacked relentlessly. With the Startled Swan Step beneath his feet, every strike landed on Zhaang Yun from an unbelievable angle. In the blink of an eye, Zhaang Ye had already struck him seven times, and every blow drew blood!

Zhaang Yun roared again and again, but he was powerless to stop Zhaang Ye from cutting him.

Seeing the situation on the Martial Arts Arena, the audience below was stunned. They could have never imagined that just a moment ago, Zhaang Yun had held the upper hand, pressing Zhaang Ye relentlessly. Yet in the blink of an eye, Zhaang Ye had unleashed his might, thrashing Zhaang Yun until he looked more wretched than a drowning dog!

What technique was Zhaang Ye using that could reduce Zhaang Yun to such a state? This question was on countless people’s minds.

"This... this is a combination of the Basic Saber Technique and the Startled Swan Step! Zhaang Ye’s Comprehension is impressive. Not only did he manage to cultivate the Basic Saber Technique to the Great Success Realm, but he can even combine the Saber Technique and the Footwork Technique to multiply its power when used." The Second Elder’s eyes lit up at Zhaang Ye’s performance, and he praised him profusely. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"This Zhaang Ye has an excellent foundation," the Third Elder, who had been silent until now, chimed in. "He has not only cultivated the Iron Bridge Stopping River Formation to Great Success, but he’s also brought his Basic Saber Technique to Great Success. Even his Startled Swan Step is approaching the Great Success Realm. It seems that even if Zhaang Ye’s strength isn’t quite on par with Zhaang Que’s, he’s not far behind." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

The other Elders all nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Zhaang Ye fully unleashed his Basic Saber Technique on the arena. Each strike whistled through the air with ferocious power. Although Zhaang Yun barely managed to protect his vital spots, his body was already covered in gashes, making him look like he was made of blood.

"AARGH—" After taking another cut to the thigh, Zhaang Yun’s legs gave out, and he involuntarily fell to his knees on the Martial Arts Arena. Just as he tried to stand, he saw a grim, murderous intent at the corner of Zhaang Ye’s mouth as another strike came chopping down. A chill shot through Zhaang Yun’s heart, and he quickly shouted, "Stop! Stop! I surrender!"

As he shouted those words, Zhaang Yun wished the ground would open up and swallow him whole. He had boasted before the match that he would beat Zhaang Ye until he was on his knees begging for mercy. Now, Zhaang Ye was completely unscathed, while he was the one who had been beaten to his knees and forced to surrender. He had been utterly humiliated!
