Chapter 179 - 179 K.O.
"Evil, would sooner or later pay for their deeds. Don't expect me to praise what you've done in the cause of Justice, Foul Creature!"
Lin Che replied and though her voice was quite soft in its delivery, it rang audibly in the thousands of attendance in the Training Field.
"Watch your mouth, Young Lady. You have no right to speak here." Elder Hong Tian interjected on the side. She did not know how ridiculous the juniors were in the later generations today.
They were especially becoming bolder as of late. Point in fact was of course Long Tian and now this nameless woman. Brazen souls one after another.
"It's okay, Elder Hong Tian. Her name is Lin Che and she is a very close friend of mine.
Please excuse her way of speech because most of the time, Lin Che has always wanted to play a game that only the two of us know.
This is the reason why she can be rude sometimes to people and particularly to me in most cases. I apologize on her behalf, Elder Hong Tian."
Our bored gamer said in length and paid no more mind to what was happening in the distance.
He was happy to know that his gamble had indeed been correct in assuming that Lin Che would definitely not take it to heart if and when he tried to kill an evil person.
It was only sad that Fang Jin did not even know why he had to die in the first place. Clark was just too lazy to explain to a dead man walking.
"I see. I understand now, Young Master Clark." Elder Hong Tian replied and she gazed at the Primal Warden with a fresh insight in mind.
"Why did you kill Fang Jin?!" A sorrowful and an angry question mixed together resounded in the open grounds. This was of course uttered by none other than Long Tian himself.
He has always stood by his friends and protected them whenever he can.
To see someone dying so pitifully right before his eyes was something that he would rather die than witness once more.
This has only reminded him well enough of the tragic ending of his own clan and family.
Long Tian's one handed grip of his enchanted sword turned into a double handed stance and his form succumbed to an entirely new change altogether.
The hate that was mirrored in his eyes was blessed with the erratic current of the essence of lightning and upon the next breath, flashes of grey and golden shades surrounded his body in full.
"A lighting attribute physique?!"
"This boy is fated for greater things!"
"It's just lamentable that he was too stupid to see reason before he could truly mature."
The wiser cultivators around commented amongst themselves and could not help but sigh at this eventual combat between two geniuses.
Alas, most of them were absolutely favored towards our bored gamer to win this contest.
The distance between a Legacy Disciple and an Inner Disciple was simply too vast to gauge and fathom.
"I only hope that Young Master Clark would give a way of life to this child Long Tian." Elder Hong Tian muttered in her seat.
One should know that physiques that have strong natural attributes were rare in this day and age.
Every cultivator could gain wisdom and control over the elements of nature when they step unto the Foundation Establishment Realm but Long Tian has already achieved some mastery over Lightning Attribute long before he achieved that certain realm.
A kind of hush descended on the scene as everyone awaited the answer of our good gamer. And almost seven breaths to the count, Clark did and it was in the form of a taunt.
"He was abusing his power without you knowing them. The Thunder Strike Faction that you have painstakingly taken care for were nothing but a bunch of rapists and torturers.
They have made fun of many lives already and have stained your precious banner and honor all along. You should be ashamed of yourself, Long Tian!
You surely have poor choices of trusted friends around you. A pity indeed!"
Our bored gamer shrugged and it was curious to notice that his left fist that obliterated one evil big head from before had no sight nor stench of blood on it.
If anyone would see him now, there was really no evidence to the crime that he just did. Save of course from the immovable and silent corpse behind our very own protagonist.
"You lie... CLARK COLTER!" Long Tian roared and this has all but signaled the beginning of a very short thrashing.
"BOOM!" A yellowish brilliance led the charge and the speed that this flashy attack exhibited was simply far beyond any 10th Stage of Mortal Shedding Realm could use.
Surprisingly enough, Long Tian had done it and only only a wake of broken earths followed his path of destruction.
He ran so fast and with these same hard heavy steps, approached the awaiting figure of our bored gamer.
Even in his fury, Long Tian remained aware of his battle strategies and in this case, he moved not on a straight line but attempted a weaving and seemingly random point of attack.
"You are fast. But not too fast that my eyes could not follow your movements. Mada Mada Dane!" Clark smiled as he finally got the chance to use one of his favorite phrases in anime.
"TING!" The sound of vibrating steel resonated in the area and immediately thereafter, everyone's eyes fell down in disbelief.
They witnessed how a handsome young man with a sword in hand tried to force an inch closer into his target.
Sadly, no matter how long and hard he tried, that little bit of inch seemed like a million worlds away from his reach.
On the other side of the duel, Clark has only stopped the sharp bladed sword with his forefinger and thumb.
"LOOK! How is something like that even possible?!"
"FUCK THIS! Young Master Clark is just too amazing!"
"Does that mean that his fingers are stronger than our enchanted weapons?!"
"So this is how a Legacy Disciple fights! Unbelievable!" The audience was moved to excitement when they saw how bad ass our bored gamer looked at the moment.
"IMPOSSIBLE!" Long Tian growled like a wounded animal.
He could of course release his hand on the sword right now and escape the tight clutches of this despicable Clark Colter but knowing that his strength would be cut in half without his weapon, Long Tian chose to remain stubborn in the end.
He held on for dear life. And that was exactly what happened next.
"BANG!"
"BANG!"
"BANG!" A sorry man's figure was mercilessly hulk smashed to the left and right.
Long Tian's sword and him along his precious weapon was entombed on the hard grounds over and over again.
It did not take one minute for the poor Inner Disciple to pass out from the beatings that he got.
Although Mortal Shedding Realm Realm Cultivators had tougher bodies compared to their mortal kin but that alone did not provide them with invulnerability to pain and suffering.
Just like every other conscious existence out there, Long Tian was bound to a world of hurt.
"I hope that this would teach you humility and prudence before you decide to act like the stupid Champion of Justice i know. Sleep well, Long Tian."
Clark said to the unconscious figure at his feet.
One breath later, our bored gamer turned around abruptly when he felt the advent of an extreme killing intent from the only Primal Warden in the vicinity.
"Don't worry, Lin Che. He's not dead. At least not yet."
Clark pacified the overwhelming emotions of anger that bloomed from the woman who acted like his prison guard from the moment they met.
"Did you just call me stupid just now?!" Lin Che uttered in clenched teeth.
She may have no soul to take pride as her own but that certainly did not mean that she was a dumb woman in consequence.
With a goddess like her that has already lived for countless eras, epochs and eons, even a cold sentient rock would have no doubt gained a good amount of intelligence in the aftermath.
"Of course, I did not!" Our bored gamer wisely denied.
"Did you hear me say that Lin Che was stupid, Uncle Ren?" Clark asked for assistance from his very own doting uncle in the sect.
He realized that Lin Che was pretty much an unstable factor in his life.
Though he acted outwardly nonchalant about her, it would be a mistake to forget that this biased Primal Warden could absolutely end his life if he was a little bit careless for just a moment or two.
At this time, our bored gamer winked one of his eyes towards Elder Feng Ren which showcased well enough about the plot that he wanted done in his presence.
"What are you talking about, Lin Che? Young Master Clark obviously did not call you stupid. You must have heard and understood it wrong."
Elder Feng Ren could only ride the waves as he replied with an awkward smile on his face.
'The things i do for the future of the Demonic Sword Sect.' Elder Feng Ren mused in silence.
"See? I got one witness to prove my case, Lin Che. You should not be prone to any quick judgments else you might do something that you would regret later on.
Like for example slaying somebody who's innocent and pure of any blame and crime like me. You should try to change this attitude of yours and..."
Our bored gamer lectured in full and it appeared like he was going to take a while in doing so.
Alas, there were people who were still not convinced by this epic show of our talkative protagonist's way of domination.
"Please give me some pointers, Clark Colter. I go by the name Sword Lunatic and I have yet to see someone who could m..."
A voice interrupted from out of the blue but before he could finish his words, this luckless soul had already kissed one fist in the face.
"BOOM!" A punch was all it took to steal the living daylights out of this second challenger.
It could be seen from this fact alone that our bored gamer was having none of this nonsense to waste his time. Sword Lunatic was fortunate enough to survive this encounter.
"Now where was i? Hmmm... Yes, Lin Che... what say you? I demand an explanation for this!"
Clark raised his voice and slowly returned to the Main Training Hall where everyone awaited in suspense.
* * *
"So i was right. Clark Colter is really very dangerous. No... I should call him Young Master Clark from now on. He truly deserves that name."
A beautiful girl that shed no shadows whispered to herself in the ruckus that occurred after our avid gamer left the scene.

"Just you wait, Father. When you come out from your closed door cultivation, I will give you this whole world as a gift." Gu Wenren said to the careless winds around her.
She had seen the lively event at the Inner Disciples Court in its entirety and she could not help but vision a much brighter future for the sect that nurtured her.
"Soon, Father. Very very soon..." Gu Wenren added to the soothing gales that touched her skin.
