LIGHTNOVELONLINE Faceslapping
CREAK
The door opened with a creak and on the other side was a person who was a bit taller than Ling Xuan and age could be around 20 to 25, they were wearing a white robe that resembled a karate gi and had an embroidery stitched to the chest which was that of Lightning.
“You should be the new Legacy Inheritor ?” The man asked gruffly.
“Yes and who should you be?” Ling Xuan replied while trying to find any clues on his facial expression.
“I am Long Chen, you are to follow me for the annual adjustment.”
“Annual adjustment ?” Ling Xuan asked, confused.
“You’ll know when we arrive, come follow me.” Long Chen commanded.
“I don’t appreciate your arrogant gesture.” Ling Xuan spoke.
“Hmph you dare to not follow your Senior ? You think just becau-”
SNAP !
“Ahhhhhh !” Long Chen screamed in terror and pain as he felt his broken left hand.
“Just because what?” Ling Xuan asked blandly.
Long Chen seeing that Ling Xuan had no change in expression despite what had just occurred made Long Chen’s back drenched in sweat.
“This boy just broke my arm and he doesn't even care ! Either he is a powerful idiot or just a very powerful person. Whatever the case, I'll have to make sure I don’t piss him off again !”Long Chen cursed himself for his arrogance.
“Nothing Senior brother come let this Junior lead you to the way !” Long Chen quickly put on a humble appearance, after all no matter the case the person in front of him was still someone who easily broke his arm.
“Alright, lead the way . ” Ling Xuan shrugged and began following Long Chen.
—---------------------------------------------------
“Oh this is going to be interesting.” Ling Xuan thought as he looked onwards at the crowd ahead.
“So this is the Newbie Execution Grounds?” Ling Xuan asked Long Chen.
“Yes Senior.” Long Chen replied, surprisingly his arm had actually healed to an extent.
“Those Cultivation Techniques are really something.” Ling Xuan mumbled as he walked to the crowd. During their walk to the Grounds Ling Xuan had forced Long Chen to spill some beans.
Apparently every year when the new disciples arrive, the seniors would curb their arrogance by beating them up.
“Those seniors are stroking their own arrogance by picking on people with a weaker Cultivation Technique.” Ling Xuan sighed as he understood the actual reason for the existence of such an event.
“Those Elders or The Sect Master won’t do anything as those muscles heads only think that such an event will give the seniors self confidence against those hailing from the sects and also humble the new arrivals.” Ling Xuan snickered.
Tossing the cubs directly into the mouth of the beast as soon as they were born was idiotic. Those muscle heads would stunt the growth of their own Sect yet nobody has a problem.
“This Sect is only powerful Combat Prowess wise, I’m pretty sure that the only way that this Sect has not gone broke is due to its treaty with The Xia Family.” Ling Xuan shook his head.
“Stop where you are Junior !” A voice called out to him and he turned to look, it was a man in their early 20s who was in the same uniform as Long Chen but the chest embroidery was that of a Qilin.
“I’m Inner Disciple Dian Zhaoyun. Do you Legacy Inheritor Ling Xuan dare to fight me !” Dian Zhaoyun spoke magnanimously as if in a theatre play.
CRACK
Ling Xuan cracked his knuckles as he smiled and answered.
“What about all of you?”
“Hah you dare to refus- wait what ?” Dian Zhaoyun was already saying his memorised script when he realised what Ling Xuan said.
WHOOSH
Suddenly Dian Zhaoyun felt his body get lighter.
“What is happening !” Dian Zhaoyun thought flabbergasted.
BOOM
Suddenly a fist struck his chest.
SPLURT
The fist was so powerful that Dian Zhaoyun’s blood was coughed out and Dian Zhaoyun himself was thrown back.
BAM
Dian Zhaoyun’s flight however was abruptly concluded when he crashed with other disciples causing all of them to fall down.
Ling Xuan meanwhile just stared at the crowd blankly.
“Is this the limit of you senior? I expected more.” Ling Xuan was not lying, he had indeed thought that Dian Zhaoyun would prove to be a challenge yet it seemed like he had overestimated once again.
“Well that doesn't mean I won’t fight them, the Thunder Visceral Refinement Technique should be something right?” Ling Xuan asked himself rhetorically and burst towards the Seniors.
BOOM
Ling Xuan spamed Hidden Serpent Pill after Hidden Serpent Pill as he oneshot every single one of his ‘seniors’.
“Run!” one of them screamed as they watched Ling Xuan effortlessly overpower their entire group, prompting them to flee in terror.
“Oh I won’t let you all go now !” Ling Xuan shouted and began using Crimson Barrage.
Ling Xuan focused Qi into his hands and delivered one punch after the other.
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
Suddenly more than half of the disciples had already fallen unconscious.
“This technique truly does wonders !”
Crimson Barrage Variation - Boundless Stampede !
It was a move that Mu Feng had taught him during his training. It was simply the use of Qi to temporarily give a buff to the arms which were used to attack countless individuals at once.
It was the Wuxia equivalent to an AOE Spell !
Yet that was only the beginning, if said move was to be stacked with another technique that worked as a Qi Compressor say The Hidden Serpent Pill then the power of the move would without doubt be catapulted to whole new levels which is exactly what happened with Ling Xuan.
“Urizen, why is it that you didn’t classify it as another technique whenever I booted up the computer?” Ling Xuan asked in his mind while punching men.
“That was due to it being just a move and not an entire technique, only when the percentage of originality is 50% or higher can it be called a technique you’ve created .” Came the swift reply of Urizen.
“Percentage of Originality ?” Ling Xuan asked as he picked up one of the unconscious disciples and proceeded to throw them towards the fleeing disciples causing them all to tumble down.
“Carto you know quite well that nothing in Existence is completely original, as long as there exists an x number of individuals it’s factual that they will invent something by subconsciously replicating something else. It always happens everywhere. Your Crimson Barrage modification can’t be called Original as it’s merely the application of the principals core moveset into a single move that is Qi storage.” Urizen gave a brief explanation.
“I see.” Ling Xuan nodded and looked around only to realise that nobody was left standing except the new disciples and Long Chen.
“Was that everyone?” Ling Xuan asked Long Chen.
As Long Chen was about to answer, a voice called out.
“Not quite !”
“Who ?” Ling Xuan looked around and then turned towards the tower.
WHOOSH
Someone had actually jumped from the tower !
“That’s !” Long Chen’s eyes widened as he realised who this individual was.
BOOM
The individual quickly landed to the ground with a massive sound of an explosion, the earth under their feet having sunken.
“Are you Ling Xuan ?” Asked the individual.
“Indeed may I know who you are ?” Ling Xuan asked with a tinge of respect.
"I am Core Disciple Feng Mingyu. I want to ask, do you wish to spar?"” Feng Mingyu asked.
