Yang Chen stood gloriously in the sky, with a cocky smile as he cracked his knuckles. " Hey dumbass, how about we kick things up a notch?" Not giving any time for a response, Yang Chen immediately reappeared behind Mu Chen and smashed his fist against his jaw.
" Bang!" Mu Chen was sent flying into the sky. Before he could land, Yang Chen landed a flurry of punches and kicks on his body, executing the most deadly combos in an instant. " Bang! Bang! Bang!!!"
A mild shockwave spread, before everyone looked to see Mu Chen unconscious and on the floor, with Yang Chen dusting his black turtle neck sweater.
Without even waiting for the results to be released, he disappeared from the arena.
" He wasn't joking when he said he'd win." Min Lang sighed and reclined in her seat. "He said he'd win ?" Sect master Ren Tianyou looked at her incredulously.
" Yeah. I had asked him previously if he could win against Mu Chen and he told me it might be a little draining, but he'd win."
She rolled her eyes. " Do you still stand by your judgement that he would lose against those two fellows?" Ren Tianyou asked again.
" Now I don't even know. Those two fellows have have surely mastered void and sword intent to the highest levels. Yang Chen in the other hand, has a superior physique and I'm pretty sure he's mastered space intent and a domain if my assumption of him teaching both Su Mu and Mo Ling. Also he has a plethora of overpowered abilities that might give him the upper hand. I'm my opinion his chances of winning are at least 60 percent now." She said after deep thought.
" You're right Lan'er . However those two fellows have vastly improved on their abilities and if I'm not wrong, Lin Shen also has the enlightened sword heart, while Xiang Tong has the Void Dragon bloodline. It would certainly be difficult for him to fight and win as easily as he had done." Ren Tianyou smiled, before leaving to attend to the guests and envoys from the other sects.
" Hey did you really have to show off like that?" Su Mu spike with a somewhat depressed sigh. Before he met Yang Chen, he thought he was invincible and unmatched among his peers.
" I now understand this saying my dad used to tell me. " There's always another sky higher.. or something like that." He said again with a facepalm. Up to now he still couldn't believe Yang Chen was only 12 and half. He was near 17, yet if he fought Yang Chen, the odds of him winning even with his domain expansion and powerful eye techniques which he hadn't even used was less than 40 percent. It didn't mean he was weak, it was just that Yang Chen was just freaking overpowered.
" Hey don't feel bad. Just work harder and maybe, just maybe, you might have a chance if touching me in a fight." Yang Chen patted his shoulder and chuckled.
....
Few days later.... Yang Chen's apartment....
" Yawn!! " Su Mu woke up from sleep and went to make himself a cup of tea. " Oi oi, sissy Mo, why the hell is my favorite cup broken..!!" Seeing pieces of broken familiar ceramic on the floor, he screamed in anxiety.
" Why you making such a fuss. It's just a cup." Mo Ling retorted as he immediately came to sweep away the broken shards.
" You!! " Su Mu began to hyperventilate, with his finger pointed at Mo Ling.
" What?! If you're so good at cleaning, while don't you wash the dishes yourself, or wait you know what, I'll tell big brother to assign you the chore of dish washing so that you know how it feels." Mo Ling smiled triumphantly.
" You~~" Su Mu couldn't believe his ears. For the first time someone was trying to be even more shameless than him. His favorite mug was broken and now he was going to be assigned the chore of dish washing. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and he collapsed.
....
Yang Chen woke up from sleep, and the trio gathered to eat for breakfast. " Sheesh. I'm starving." Yang Chen salivated as he watched the loads of food in front of him. He had the appetite of a saiyan, hence he could eat loads and loads of food.
" Knock. Knock." They we're just about to dig in, when they heard a knock on the door.
" What does she want?" Yang Chen facepalmed as Mo Ling looked to the door with a confused expression, as he went to open it.
" Hi boys." With a joyful voice, Min Lang entered with a smile. She smiled at Su Mu and Mo Ling, before going to peck Yang Chen on the cheek which caused him to almost fall from his chair.
" What is your problem woman? What do you want?" He angrily barked. " You earned the little peck after winning the inner sect competition. And I'm here because father wants to speak to you" She said as she took a seat and began to eat.
" Miss Min Lang, why does he get to receive all the gifts, I mean we performed splendid as well." Su Mu pouted as he chewed on a large thigh of a demonic beast.
" Well you guys performed splendidly. In fact, your fights were even the most exciting and due to that, this inner sect competition has been named the best since the history of the sect."
She smiled as she ate. " Well you're right about that. I did do great, however sissy Mo here got his ass handed to him pretty well." Su Mu cockily smiled.
" The rewards for the inner sect competition would be given later, however, lemme give you a bit of a spoiler. In the inter sect competition which will be happening two years from now, you three would be joining the core disciples in fighting." She spoke as she hoorayed, while Yang Chen's eye brows furrowed.
" Another competition?" He asked. " Well yeah." She laughed.
