36 Dao of 'Brick'.

At the same time, in one of the VIP room.

An extremely handsome young man can be seen looking at the battlefield below.

He was handsome to the point that, if he has little bit longer hair and a little curve here and there, he can easily be mistaken as one of the most beautiful maiden in the whole continent.

Beside the youth, there also stood two very strong person. By the spirit power fluctuation, it can be easily assessed that they both are Spirit Douluo or above.

The sound of opening of door can be heard as an old man wearing the robe that generally only Bishops of the Spirit Hall wear, walked in and said respectfully :

"Your Highness, we've already delayed the trip to the capital, if we continue to waste our time here there will be a little problem over there. For all the day we didn't find any exceptional spirit master that you have taken an interest in. It should be better if we hurriedly move according to the plan."

The handsome youth looked like he was lost in thought but after a few moments he nodded his head and said :

"We'll move toward the capital again tomorrow at dawn. I still want to watch the battles."

The Bishop nodded as he too stood behind the youth as they continued to watch the battles.

At this moment on the fighting arena, the referee holding a big microphone said loudly:

"Now we will the participants of the fourth game on one-on-one battle. The two fighting are both Spirit Elder.

They are Smasher, Spirit Spear, 30th-level Spirit Elder, the new participant that has just made his debut and against him is our veteran Li Jian, Spirit Leopard, 37th-level Spirit Elder. The battle record of Smasher is zero wins and the battle record of Li Jian is consecutive 8 wins. It will be a hrad battle for the new participant, let's see who win in the end folks."

And yes you guessed right. Smasher is none other than Tang Ming. .

As soon as the referee announced the participants the whole crowd cheered as they both made their way in the arena battlefield.

"Wow, Ming'ge name sounds so strange. Why didn't he used his real name? And why is trying to look mysterious by wearing a mask?" Xiao Wu looked at Tang Ming and asked curiously.

They all had finished their matches and won. Tang Ming's fight was the last one-on-one that was left. After that they will fight two-on-two.

"Consecutive eight victories? He seems to be a strong opponent?" Ma Hongjun said.

Everyone nodded and they looked down at the battlefield.

Li Jian can be seen wearing a loose white robe and has somewhat above average face. The most notable feature of the boy is that his hair is of dark red colour.

On the other side, Tang Ming can be seen wearing an all black tuxedo suit with white shirt. He is also wearing a plain silver mask that doesn't has any other facial feature other than two hole for the eyes.

It's not uncommon to wear mask in the arena so nobody cared for it.

"Winning eight games in a row is a but exaggerated afterall he is just in middle ranks of Spirit Elder stage. He seems to be very strong, looks like this is going to be a fierce fight." Dai Mubai said trying to look experienced in fighting.

"Yeah, all the opponent we fought in one-on-one was very simple as we won easily." Xiao Wu said again.

On the stage, both of them came forward and stand somewhat ten metre apart from each other as they introduced themselves as per the tradition.

They both came in their fighting stance as Li Jian summoned his spirit.

His body size increased dramatically as sharp claws formed in his hands and three rings respectively yellow, yellow and purple rose up from his feet.

Tang Ming still stood the same as before in a laid back manner. One hand in his pants pocket and another one holding what seem to be an iron brick. Now if anyone that knew him would know that he isn't taking the fight seriously.

All the viewers were confused looking at the brick in his hand. Didn't the referee say that he has a spear spirit? Why is the brick in his hand instead?

Seeing that his opponent didn't even summoned his spirit, Li Jian felt that he was being looked down. Not even summoning his martial spirit when fighting can be said an insult to the opponent. His eyes turned cold as he said, "You didn't even summoned your spirit. Are you looking down on me?"

"Well, I didn't need my spirit to defeat you." Tang Ming replied honestly.

"Well, this is the last chance I'm giving you to calm your spirit otherwise you're going to regret that decision." Said Li Jian as he felt that his opponent was young from the voice.

"No need." Tang Ming said indifferently.

Seeing that he stiil didn't called his spirit, Li Jian was furious. He didn't say anything again and immediately used his first and second spirit ring as both the innermost yellow ring lit up as he muttered :

" Speed Amplification!"

"Diving Strike!!"

As he used his ring, his speed immediately increased as he leaped an performed an attack with both his hands slashing toward him.

Seeing that Tang Ming hasn't even reacted at all, Li Jian grinned as his attacks landed on Tang Ming. Before he can even be happy, his whole body just went right through Tang Ming as his smile stiffened. He k we that what he attacked was an afterimage.

As he immediately found his balance and turned around to once again launch his attack, he can only see his opponent appearing and disappearing instantly.

At this Tang Ming was moving at a very high speed in a zig zag motion, leaving an afterimage behind which makes it look like he was teleporting in the short distance.

Li Jian tried to follow his movements but his eyes can't keep with it. He suddenly felt a slight crisis as he saw Tang Ming attacking him with a flying roundhouse kick, he hurriedly used his third spirit ring as the purple ring rose and lit up.

"Third Spirit Ring : Shield Impact!"

His third spirit ring can reduce the damage of any attack by 80% which can be called a very good defensive skill. He was also confident that he can resist his opponents attack.

'Bang!'

An explosion can be heard as his spirit ring skill didn't manage to help him block his attack and was sent sliding more than ten metre back.

His hand was still feeling numb by the power of the kick.

But at this time, he saw Tang Ming getting in a rushing stance as he held the hand holding iron brick a little back.

He knew that his opponent is going to attack him with that. As he was just going to cross his arm in front of his face. A voice sounded right at this time.

"DAO OF BRICK, FIRST MOVE : FACE SMASH!!"

"BOOOM!!"

Before Li Jian can even process what happened a brick came perfectly evading his hand and smashing right into his face as he was sent flying out of the stage into the wall. As the dust cleared everyone looked at where Li Jian was as he can be seen embedded in the wall firmly. He was bleeding from his nose as his face swelled like a pig from the side where the brick attacked.

Tang Ming can be seen standing right where Li Jian was standing, looking at the brick with a slight frown.

The iron brick that he used was bend at 90° backward because of the force of the attack.

'Uh..uh looks like I once again used more power than necessary. 'Sigh'. And I aslo need a solid metal brick, I've to ask Tang San for this.'

In an instant the match was over. The whole audience was completely quiet!

The battle is over just like that! No flashy moves, no cringy dialogue, just like that.

Everyone that was looking was stunned seeing that a 37th-level spirit elder was defeated in one attack by a 30th- level spirit elder even after using all his spirit ring.

The more absurd thing was that nobody saw the Smasher use any spirit ring, heck he didn't even summoned his spirit.

Even the referee that was bouncing and shouting like he was being penetrated, was also silent.

"Ahem, Mr. Referee shouldn't you announce the winner." Tang Ming then looked at the referee who was looking with his jaw dropped.

The referee quickly pulled himself back and then shouted loudly in his microphone :

"And here's your winner, JOHHNNN CENA!!" (hehe that was a lame joke.)

"And here's your winner folks, the new participant Tang Ming defeated Li Jian with a single attack. The winner Tang Ming with a single win and zero loss defeated Li Jian with a record of eight consecutive wins."

The whole arena was silent for a moment before all the viewers started cheering and shouting.

"SMASHER!!"

"SMASHER!!"

"SMASHER!!!"

"Wow, brother Ming once again used that damned brick smashing move. Xiaosan why did brother Ming like to use brick so much?" Xiao Wu looked at the brick and had a cold sweat run down her face as she asked curiously.

Tang San shrugged his shoulder. How can he know why brother Ming uses bricks? Once he did asked but only recieved that 'The feeling of smashing other with a brick can't be felt by any other means.' while brother Ming has an evil grin on his face.

Ma Hongjun also asked, "Xiao Wu, did brother Ming use bring often?"

"Hmm, while we were still in Nuoding City, if anyone challenged or angered him be only used bricks to beat people. You can also ask your boss Dai as he too was beaten with a brick, hehehe" Xiao Wu giggled and answered.

Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing looked stunned hearing this as they didn't know about this.

Now only Ma Hongjun understand why his overbearing boss Dai behaved well in front of brother Ming. Thinking of this a stupid grin formed on his face as he looked at boss Dai.

Zhu Zhuqing tok was shocked because she left that day before the fight started.

Dai Mubai has an ugly expression on his face as he looked at Xiao Wu and thought. 'This girls definitely has a vendetta with me, why does she always find trouble with me?'

At this time in the VIP room.

The young prince squinted his eyes looking at the young man below. He too was surprised as the young man below defeated the other person with a higher cultivation without even using his spirit, only by pure physical strength.

This person attracted his attention very much. If he can defeat a person with higher level without even using his spirit he is bound to be strong.

He didn't think that he would find anyone good but unexpectedly found a strong person.

The youth looked at the Bishop and said, "Bishop Jie, I want you to find everything about him and if you can, contact him politely, don't use force if he didn't want to. And also I don't want anyone else to know about this matter."

The person called as Bishop Jie hurriedly nodded his head as he left to the participants resting area.

But what the Prince and Bishop didn't know was that Tang Ming already found about them as soon as he entered to fight. Obviously they came in his [Observation Haki] range even while it's passive.

That's why he didn't use his spirit as he was going to use it to fight. He knew that they were people of some standing as he felt three Spirit Douluo, and one Spirit Emperor presence.

After exiting the ring he made an illusion of himself and sent it to the resting area as he himself quickly removed his mask and changed his clothes back to platinum tuxedo suit wearing a trench coat over it.

He quickly joined Tang San and the group as he left the Great Arena with them.

Just as they left, Bishop Jie came running in the resting area and found Tang Ming.

(Now don't ask how can his illusion work. As I had already told you he can use [EternalI Illusion] anywhere in his [Observation Haki] range and while at level 30 his Haki can cover all the Soto City while activated.)

He walked toward him and asked with politeness, " Young Man, can you come with me. My prince wants to meet you."

Tang Ming was already expecting him but he still feigned ignorance and asked apprehensively, " Who is your prince? And why did he want to meet me?"

Seeing that I was on guard the Bishop Jie smiled and said, " Well I can't tell you who he is but I can assure you that we mean no harm. He only wanted to meet you so that he can make a deal with you."

After watching that the young man put his guard down he lead him toward the VIP room and entered.

As he entered the room, he immediately felt the oppression of the two people standing behind the young man watching him with vigilance.

The young man slightly raised his one hand and said in a very soft tone, "Stop! You don't need to test him."

As Tang Ming looked at the young man, he was shocked to see his extremely handsome appearence. He looked lean and had blonde short hair. He had a clear teal eyes and gives off a fresh and cool feeling.

' This is the first person who is this handsome I have ever seen. Of course except me.'

His handsomeness leaned toward the feminine side while Tang Ming's leaned more toward masculine side and if not because of the flat chest and his voice he would have thought that he was a she.

He had a nagging feeling that he has seen him somewhere but couldn't put a hand where he had seen him before.

Bishop Jie bowed a little and said to the prince, "Your highness! I brought you the participant."

The youth nodded his head lightly and looked straight at Tang Ming's eyes through the holes. He was dazed looking at the silver eyes but quickly said :

"Smasher....is it? I am very impressed by your battle. This is the first time I have seen someone who can defeat someone of higher level even without using his spirit and spirit ring. And looking at you, I don't think you belong to any known forces. Because I have never heard anyone with the same name as you."

"I wanted to ask you to join under me and in exchange I'll have you any resource you want from spirit rings to spirit bones. If you swear your loyalty to me right now, I'll grant you this torso spirit bone of more than thirty thousand year." The prince said taking out a shining blue coloured spirit bone and showed to him.

Even the two Spirit Douluo behind and Bishop has their eyes shining seeing the spirit bone.

You have to know that even after reaching Spirit Douluo, only few top spirit master have a single spirit bone and seeing that the young man can just have the spirit bone just by joining, they felt a little jealous but only that. As they knew better than to anger the person seated, as they all know the identity of the said person.

Tang Ming eyes flashed a little but not because of the spirit bone but he has guessed the prince identity and if that person is the same one he guessed then things can easily become quite ugly. But he still didn't put up his guard as he said, "Thank you for your compliment, your highness but I would like to decline your proposal....."

The prince's eyebrows rose a little as he once again asked curiously, "Decline? why would you decline my offer? Can you explain why you refused me."

Tang Ming smiled under his mask seeing that the young man or maybe woman didn't get angry.

He said, "it's nothing big but I don't like to work under anyone as I quite liked my freedom. I hope you don't mind."
