The Third Match, Itagaki Kyousuke versus Nakagawa Hikotaka.
This is going to be another exciting fight, the battle of Nakagawa Favored one and Itagaki Favored one. The people had a longing in their eyes, not losing to the previous battle.
Itagaki walked into the stage with his humble expression while Hikotaka came with his l.u.s.tful expression, on his way, he still has time to look for some girls in the crowds.
"Amithaba. The l.u.s.t in your eyes is too abundant, clear your mind from the sin, and you shall perceive the greatness." said Itagaki Kyousuke while bowing
"Hmph! Defeat me first before you say that" Nakagawa Hikotaka snorted."Match Start!"
Nakagawa Hikotaka charged toward him with his sword. He swings it toward Kyousuke, while Kyousuke only used his palm to block the sword, and surprisingly, they were equal. His hand was like steel, and it didn't even bleed. After that, Hikotaka retreated a few steps.
Kyousuke immediately counter-attack. He pushed his palm to the front. A big Illusory Palm suddenly appeared from Kyousuke's palm and went toward Hikotaka.
"Light Palm!"
"Echo Sword"
Alex watching at this, he thought. Is the Nakagawa family didn't have any other techniques? Or is that 'Sword Art' really that popular? But just when he thought about that, Hikotaka managed to destroy the Big Palm. He raised his sword and swung it down. A sword wave flew toward Kyousuke
"Flash Cut""Light Palm!"
Kyousuke sends another 'Light Palm' , but after clashing for a few seconds, it was destroyed by the sword wave. Kyousuke was a bit surprised, but he immediately followed up.
"Mountain Body"
"Boom!"
The masses are wondering about the result. From their point of view, Kyousuke received the sword wave with his body. But Kyousuke suddenly appeared in front of Hikotaka without any wound on his body. He pushed his fist toward him.
"Roaring Ray"
Hikotaka tried to block it with his sword, but he was blown away because of the force.
"Hmph! Nakagawa Sword Style, Desolation"
Five Illusory Swords appeared and made their way toward Kyousuke, but it was futile.
"Mountain Body"
"Boom!" All of the five swords exploded on his body, but Itagaki Kyousuke still unscathed. Kyousuke charged toward Hikotaka once again.
"Roaring Ray"
Hikotaka expression becomes solemn. He raised his sword to block the incoming fist. "I'm planning to use this when I fought with Elder Sister, but you forced me."
"Boom!"
Everyone thought that Hikotaka has given up on the match. But they were bewildered when they heard a scream...
"Argh!"
The scream didn't come from Hikotaka, who they thought received the blow head-on. But the scream came from Itagaki Kyousuke, who is currently holding his fist that presently bleeding.
The one who shocked the most is Nakagawa Otoshi, "What? Sword Intent! That brat dare to hide this from me."
"It is indeed a sword intent" Conn Kindellan nodded in agreement.
"Congratulations, City Lord, both of your Son and Daughter finally condensed their sword intent." Himura Takata congratulated him. The other also followed his lead and congratulated him.
In the arena, after revealing his sword intent. Hikotaka began to suppress Kyousuke even though Kyousuke is one level higher in the Cultivation Stage. His close combat now is useless. The Sword Intent rendered his fist useless. Even if he used his 'Light Palm' and sent an Illusory Palm toward Hikotaka, he can destroy it pretty easily.
Kyousuke has tried to use his 'Mountain Body' but Hikotaka's Sword still sharper than his body. He made a cut wound on Hikotaka Body. Now that his body is severely injured and there is no other way to turn around this fight. He decided to surrender, "I lost."
"Nakagawa Hikotaka Wins!"
An old Buddhist monk appeared in front of Kyousuke, "This is the difference bought by an intent. You didn't have enough time to comprehend better Martial Arts. The fight has been concluded after seeing the Sword Intent. After this tournament, we will go back to our Sect, and you need to train hard. It will be best if you can condense an Intent such as Fist Intent that suited you. But for now, Recover your wound, and there is still a fight to determine the Top 10 since you are in Top 16. Enter the Top 10 later, so we didn't lose any face."
"Yes, Master" Kyousuke bowed to the old monk as he went back to the VIP Seat.
...
The next match is Tsutsui Aino versus Kitajo Kagemochi.
Tsutsui Aino is a young woman with short blue hair, and she is wearing a blue shirt and a long white skirt. She is your average girl, not too s.e.xy, and not too pretty. Her opponent, Kitajo Kagemochi, is a young man with a Silver Hair, from the look of it, he is also a Nakagawas. Maybe from their branch. It wasn't unusual that the girl from a big family married to another family and followed their surname. And it seems that he also a disciple from Nakagawa House.
Since both of them are Qi Manipulation Stage, this is a pretty dull match, and Kitajo Kagemochi won the fight. They were pretty lucky that they haven't fought with Martial Master. Well, in this world, luck is a part of the strength. So with that, Kitajo Kagemochi, with his luck, achieved the top 8.
Not only him, but there is also the next fight, Soga Tsutsuyo versus Fujii Haru. Both of them is a pretty woman with the cultivation of 1-Star Martial Master. But this was an exciting match, only for a male though. With their 'healthy' body, The 'Bouncing' on the right part and 'Jiggle Jiggle' on the other part filled the fight. All female audiences can only send a murderous glance at the male audiences. Alex wasn't interested in it since he has Alicia and Firia. Anna, who is currently accompanying him, is also on the same level as them. She still in the Card Form, though. They need to at least at the level of Nakagawa Hiina to...ahem.
Soga Tsutsuyo won the match.
...
The next fight is another Fight that was anticipated by the people. This time, not only the male but the female also excited for this match, Kusunoki Kayo is one of the top beauty in Limewatch Town. At the same time, Alex's handsomeness is also outstood the other young master, such as Kenshin or Hikotaka. Alex is also not a local to boot, and it gives another spice to the local female. And especially, they had strength to back them up.
Alex entered the stage slowly. He is wearing a white shirt and long black pants. His short black hair and focused eyes make him look like a prince. He just lacks 'Elegant'. If not, it would have been perfect.
Kusunoki Kayo has been waiting for him on the stage. She tied her long brown hair to a ponytail. Her sharp eyes are watching Alex walking to the stage.
"Kusunoki Kayo" She introduced herself with a low but cute voice.
"Alexander Sirius" Alex introduced himself back. He is a bit taken aback when he heard her voice, the memory about his past that he had buried deeply was tugged a bit.
Both of them took out their weapons. Kusunoki Kayo uses spear while Alex uses sword. From the difference in their reach alone, Kusunoki Kayo is at an advantage.
"Can I ask you?" Kayo suddenly asked.
"What is it?"
"Who are you, really?"
"I think it is better for you not to know who I am. There is a saying, 'Curiosity Kill the cat' from my hometown." Alex said, mysteriously. It enhanced his mysterious identity.
"Do you mean that I'm not qualified to know it?" Kayo asked without any expression.
Alex didn't answer the question. He only sticks his tongue out for this question. After this question, both of their expression becomes solemn.
"Match Start!"
"Lightning Rush" Kayo is the first one to attack. She didn't dare to underestimate him after she watched his battle against Nakagawa Yuu. She is very sure that Alex still hasn't used his all in that battle. The moment she used it, she suddenly moves like lightning and suddenly appeared behind Alex.
But surprisingly, Alex didn't move from his position, but if one observed him carefully, his sword is the one that moves. It repelled Kusunoki Kayo's spear thrust. Everybody thought that Alex blocked Kusunoki Kayo's attack easily. But for Alex, himself, he used his Spirit Eyes Technique to slow down his vision so he can block it easily. After all, in the battle, the moment you show your weakness, your enemy will target that. And if your opponent thinks you are strong, their decision speed will decrease.
Kusunoki Kayo was astounded that Alex managed to block her attack easily. Before she can think anything, Alex has counter-attack, he arrived in front of her and swung his sword down. She instinctively guards it with her spear.
"Splitting Sword"
The force from Splitting Sword made her used all her strength just to block this because she was unprepared. Alex rolls his eyes toward her left side. She also noticed Alex's gaze on her left side, and from his gaze, she felt his intention to attack.
And that's right, Alex sends a kick toward her. She put her guard up immediately. But, Alex blew her away with his kick.
"Pu!"
She was blown away from Alex's kick, and she spat blood. She was blown away because Alex's attack came from her right side, not her left side.
"How? I thought that you are going to attack from my left side" Kayo asked him with a surprised look.
"You have a good talent in Spear, but you are still too inexperienced." Alex said, calmly.
Kayo immediately gets into her stance once more. She thought inwardly, 'This person...no, Alexander is strong.'
The moment she realized that, her focus came back. She looked at Alex carefully, "Penetrating Lance."
Her spear is glowing white light. Alex frowned, His sword also started to glow. They jumped forward at the same time. Kusunoki Kayo thrust her spear, and Alex swings his sword.
"Splitting Sword"
Kayo is trying to break his sword by piercing it while Alex didn't let her do what she wants. They continued clashing with each other. Alex thought that he needs to break this stalemate.
"Fleeting Step"
He started using his unpredictable footwork to break the stalemate. The situation shift to his favor. Now with his unpredictable footwork, it is time for Alex to exploit the weakness in her Spear Art. This is what Alex had noted when he observed her. Because of the last golden lightning tribulation back in the lower world. He can understand the spear much better, and it gave him the necessary information about her Spear Art. From it, Alex can see that Kusunoki Kayo Foundation is solid. However, there is still some weakness that can be exploited.
This time, Alex completely suppressed her. When she trusted with her right hand, it left her left foot unguarded. Alex took advantage of it and attack her at that spot. Another example is when she tried to block his sword that comes above her. Her lower half becomes unstable. He took that chance and attacked her again.
But it seems that Kayo also noticed that Alex's exploited her weakness one by one. The fight continues for a while. Alex beat her again and again.
"Wuu"
"Are you a man?"
"How dare you attack her like that!"
"Shame on you!"
Everybody was booing on his action. Alex ignored them completely. Even the elder from Rainbow Flower Sect, who recruited her into Rainbow Flower Sect, can't take it anymore. She stood up.
"How dare he! Is he even a man! I will teach him how to treat a lady! No, I will just kill him right now!" She was angered to see Alex plain bullying. But before she can do anything. Elder Su Hua stopped her, "Calm down. I'm sure he didn't have that sort of intention."
"How can you say he didn't have that sort of intention, just look at it yourself on the arena. It is plain bullying."
"Elder Su Hua is right" Suddenly, Conn Kindellan spoke.
"What do you mean? You only defend him because you are interested in him, right?"
"No, I'm indeed interested in him. But I feel his intention is different, from my point of view. This is like a Big brother teaching his sister how to fight with a spear." Conn said leisurely.
"What do you mean?" Amira Austin frowned.
"Just wait after this fight over. You will know the answer. I'm amazed at how good he is in spear. I thought that he only has a sword. But this... I can't put it in words."
"Hey, he is mine!" Su Hua corrected him. Conn ignored him.
