28 Tournament Part 3

Xie Yiban look at the old man in front of him, even though they are only a few feet apart, he had a feeling that the old man in front of him was an unreachable existence. He take out a long red spear in his interspatial ring and take his stance.

"Old man I don't feel any Qi from you, tell me how do you intend to fight me without any qi?" he said as he discover that the old man in front of him has no qi.

"It is true I don't have any qi, because I don't even know what is this qi that you're talking about" Yamamoto reply casually.

"I see that you don't want to talk any further, then let's start this now" after Xie Yiban said that Qi started to explode from his body. He lunges his body with his spear thrust out aiming at his opponents head.

*swoosh*

As the spearhead was about to touch the face of the old man, he vanishes. Xie Yiban looked around him to see where the old man has run to.

"Young one you are so serious, aiming to take my life from the very start" said a voice above Xie Yiban

He looked up and see the old man standing in the air as if he was standing on something. The spear in his hand started to emit red fire that run through his armor making him look like a devil that came to surface.

"Blazing Fire Thrust" Xie Yiban shouted as he thrust his spear upward creating a massive fire spear that charge toward Yamamoto.

*crackle*

Sound of burning fire spread to the sky and the arena, everyone could feel the intense heat made by the attack that Xie Yiban released. Everyone looked at the sky but they don't see even the shadow of the old man.

Xie Yiban can't sense the old man, he laugh and smile smugly and shouted, "Ha ha ha.. old man you are all talk and no action. Entertain you? Hmmp, you can't even entertain this general here and you are dead already. Ha ha ha ha, burn to death even your ashes was gone ha ha ha."

As the general was laughing thinking that his opponent had already perish, everyone on the arena was directing their gaze at his position.

Noticing everyone quite and no-one was cheering for his victory, Xie Yiban look at the audiences and notice that they were looking at him, to be precise they were looking behind him. Xie Yiban's face turned pale as he quickly turn around only to hear a cold voice that makes him feel like a bucket of cold ice water has been splash on him.

"Ryūjin Jakka Hitotsume: Nadegiri"

They saw that the cane the old man was holding started to peel off the wood and revealed a sword inside. With an extreme speed that are incapable of seeing with human eyes and force that even the space started to bend as the sword move.

Seconds later still nothing happen, many people started to think that the attack misses until they hear a miserable scream.

*AAAaaarggggghhHHhhhhhhh* Xie Yiban scream loudly as his right arm was cleanly chopped off.

The audience was horrified of what they were seeing, the two generals stand up from their seat as they saw Xie Yiban scream in agony as his arm continue to bleed. The emperor and the princes was shock to their spine, they had never thought that this would be the outcome of the battle.

The second prince could not believe what he was seeing, the first time he sees the old man and the young lady along the way to the capital, he always thought that they were mortal because he could not feel any Qi from them. He had not thought that the seemingly mortal and harmless old man he encounter would be this strong capable of cutting the entire arm of a general in just one strike.

The emperor, princes, the generals and the audiences all knew how powerful the general was, his title as the 'Crimson General' are true. They all know that he haw a cultivation of middle stage of Martial Emperor realm. He was one of the pillar of the empire, but now that general was on the ground wailing as he hold his severed arm. He was looking at Yamamoto like a beast waiting to pounce at any given time. His face was full of rage and fury, he was mumbling something under his breath.

Xie Yiban pick up his spear with his left arm and roar to the sky, the burning flames surrounding him intensifies as he look like a madman.

"Burn this old man for me, Crimson Annihilation!!"

After he shouted it an enormous red flame in the shape of flower came out of his forehead and shot to where Yamamoto was standing.

"Haiss, young one were really reckless, you should be grateful that I did not take your life as I think there would be some use for you in the future. But now you are forcing me young one." Yamamoto said as his carefree face turn serious, he held the sword in his hand and said,
