The Favored Son of Heaven - Chapter 65

Chapter 65: One Versus Ten

Translator: Strivon  Editor: Strivon

Okay! This wasn’t an impossible thing! The prerequisite was that you attained the highest apex of three-star strength, you possessed extraordinary martial senses, and you experienced group battles aplenty.

Even if one didn’t fulfill these conditions, one would still choose to do the same thing as Qin Fen.

Soon this run and chase lasted a dozen or so minutes. The time left in the competition was getting shorter and shorter, and quite a few people of th initial pursues were beginning to fall behind.

One might expect that the War God Arena wouldn’t be exhaustive of one’s physical strength since it was a virtual competition, but through special technology, the equivalent amount of strength was exhausted for people in reality. This was the reason why Qin Fen wasn’t willing to fight in the past.

Though some people had fallen behind, the number of pursuers didn’t lessen by much. There were people who lost their places in the top one hundred, and their places were naturally filled by new people. Practically all of these people, for the sake of accumulating points as quickly as possible, chose to attack Qin Fen. As such, the number of people behind Qin Fen was growing.

The people chasing behind Qin Fen were grumbling as they ran. Was Thirty-Six Hours even human!? He was running at a pace of a hundred-meter sprint for a dozen minutes so far. Shouldn’t he be tired? Quite a few people turned from initial excitement to gnashing their teeth as they gave chase.

The woods! Qin Fen’s eyes lit up when he saw the woods in the distance. The entire world was his if he could get there! He normally wouldn’t dare hide with nearly a hundred three-star expects chasing him. He would probably be discovered.

However, right now people had begun to tire whether in body or mind. They weren’t at their peak state. It would be much harder to detect Qin Fen if he were to conceal himself.

Qin Fen plunged himself into the woods, making sevenish winds and turns. He made use of the shelter of trees to quickly throw off everyone, and he soon concealed himself.

Nearly a hundred people stormed the forest, soon discovering that Thirty-Six Hours had thrown them off. In an instant, they formed small teams of twos and threes to divide and conquer the search effort.

Qin Fen watched the people scatter about from his secret hiding place, and a faint smile floated to his face. He never thought that he could properly put to use the few things his drill instructor had taught him right here and right now. He quickly crawled his way toward the two three-star warriors closest to him….

Soon there were two fewer three-star warriors in the woods, while Qin Fen’s score continued to increase.

Three… four… five… six….

Unbeknown to most, the number of experts in the small woods quickly decreased. Qin Fen’s figure was akin to that of a demon. He roamed all about in easy delight. Qin Fen made quick progress in the practical application all of Gale Riley’s and Butcher’s teachings.

Normally it was impossible to find nearly a hundred three-star experts to act as training partners. Qin Fen began to thank the people who created the War God Arena. They had delivered him such a great training gift.

“There is still thirty seconds remaining…. Please seize the moment….”

The system voice flashed through the air once more, and everyone saw that the person in first place, Qin Fen, already had his points increase by several hundred. They knew it was completely hopeless.

The near hundred people weren’t able to find Qin Fen at all. This made them very angry. Some people even shouted, “Fight fairly and honorably if you’re a man, Thirty-Six Hours! You think you’re heroic hiding your head and baiting with your tail?…”

Qin Fen suddenly dropped from the sky before he could finish speaking, his foot simply stomping through the enemy’s skull and to the chest.

Qin Fen’s sudden appearance stupefied everyone! It must be known that there were at least ten people standing beside the side of the man who had shouted! This was also the reason why the man had yelled to Qin Fen!

“Come then! There’s still twenty seconds or so! I also want to see just how much ability I have!”

Qin Fen couldn’t endure any longer. He wanted to know just how strong he was, and he was going to use these last twenty or so seconds to fing out against ten three-star experts!

Qin Fen simply charged toward the ten people, not waiting at all for them to react.

Qin Fen actually dared to fight a one versus ten where everyone was on the same level? Did he go crazy? Even though they were curious, everyone immediately woke from their shock. They unleashed their martial arts at Qin Fen, rushing at him.

Great ambition and vigor soared within Qin Fen! Though Qin Fen’s charge clearly consisted of merely one man, he was like the general of a ten-thousand men army, leading the pack ahead to slaughter. His heroic and fierce aura pressed down against the ten opponents!

Bam bam bam bam!

Qin Fen killed his way into the crowd, his bold and open movement matched his courageous aura of advancement. He simply made contact with the three people closest to him, meeting force with force. The clash and exchange of fists, feet, and muscle caused the air to ring loudly with sounds shocking to the soul.

In this moment, Qin Fen completely forgot the reason he had come to the War God Arena—to seize its rewards. He also forgot just how many people he faced. He was completely immersed, he was completely in the zone, in this explosive battle.

Since Qin Fen began fighting in general, the opponents he met were either too weak or too strong. It was hard to find a good fight where the two sides were evenly match. This fight had become the fight where Qin Fen was most in the zone since he started fighting!

Several other had people arrived, surrounding him, by now, and fists and kicks came pouring down like a torrential storm. Qin Fen had already entered a realm where he completely forgot himself. It was a state of total immersion. His martial senses and his instincts allowed him to experience the true essence of the martial dao. Every strike he made had the force of nearly a thousand pounds.

A few three-star warriors who were relative close rushed over upon hearing the noise of fighting. Each and every one of them stared with bulging eyes and gaping mouths at Qin Fen grandly fighting a group on his own. Every strike of his was firmer and fiercer than any metal, and his vigorous aura pressed down on people, yet he dodged as delicately as a willow branch. Qin Fen flickered with ease among the light and shadows of fists and kicks. He moved like clouds and flowing water, making the scene seem like everyone had rehearsed this beforehand.

With such a scene presented, the few people who had hurried over immediately gave up on the idea of joining the fray. They weren’t necessarily scared of Qin Fen. It was just that such a sight was extremely rare among three-star battlefields. They weren’t willing to ruin it.

Twenty seconds was abnormally short, but those fighting against Qin Fen felt that it was abnormally long. Nearly ten people had ganged up on one person, yet they were unable to catch him at all. This would be truly shameful if word of it got out.

“Time’s up….”

The instant this voice rang in the air, Qin Fen suddenly felt that there weren’t any people around him at all!

When he snapped back to reality and looked around him, he saw that he was absolutely not in the War God Arena. Right now he was standing in the log-in interface, and only now did he realize that time was up.

Qin Fen closed his eyes and carefully reflected on the fight that happened not too long ago. He had the faint feeling that he had become stronger.

“A bit interesting.” Qin Fen opened his eyes. He saw his inbox pulsate. He opened it and saw several unread messages inside. One was from Leopard Head. Long story short, Leopard Head was done fighting for today and wanted to change the time for a proper fight. Another message was from Immortal of the Small Fist. It was also a message of challenge. The general idea that he wanted to convey was that he didn’t accept being ambushed.

Qin Fen replied with a clarification that Immortal of the Small Fist had to pay money for Qin Fen to accept a challenge a fight. Then Qin Fen opened the last message.

This was a message sent by the system. It talked about rewards.

Qin Fen could chose two prizes out of three. The neo martial art the Origin Compressing Art. The neo martial art that consisted of weaponry equipment of magnetically driven flying swords, the Mag Drive Flying Sword. This weapon was a bit similar to the neo martial art equipment the Thunderous Swords of Yin and Yang that Qin Fen had encountered before. The Mag Drive Flying Sword was stronger, however. The last option was a soft armor. Just one look and Qin Fen knew that its defense power was quite decent.

Neo martial arts. The words were synonymous with luxury goods from Qin Fen’s perspective. Even though he had them as options, it didn’t mean he could learn them. A lot of money was typically required in order to dip into them.
