Son Of The Universe

CHAPTER 8 XIAO TIAN

"Do you intend to join the fight? If you want to fight, I don't mind taking on both of you simultaneously!" Although Xiao Tian had stopped his attack, Xing Han still did not take Xiao Tian seriously.

Xiao Tian shook his head. "Do you not understand my meaning? If you don't, then fine, I'll make you understand."

Xiao Tian looked sharply at the Patriarch of the Boundless Valley. "Old man, I don't know where you come from. But your actions in our Sect don't reflect those of a master. If you want a fight between disciples, this isn't the way. My Supreme Sword Sect will satisfy your desire for a battle."

Hearing the sharp comments from a child, Gan Feng's face turned red, anger rising in his expression. As a patriarch of the Boundless Valley, how could he tolerate the words of a child who didn't understand the martial world? But before he could unleash his fury, Fa Wa, standing beside him, spoke first.

"Gan Feng, don't you feel ashamed of your childish behavior? Tian's words are true! If you want to see the strength between Boundless Valley and our Supreme Sword Sect's disciples, I'd be happy to fulfill your wish," Fa Wa said teasingly as if challenging Gan Feng. "But for now, sit here, and we will watch the battle between our disciples peacefully," he continued, pointing to the chair prepared beside him.

Gan Feng held back his anger. The two disciples from the Boundless Valley and the Supreme Sword Sect began preparing for the fight.

Everyone present could feel the tension in the air; they were not only shocked by Xiao Tian's actions but also by Fa Wa's words as their patriarch.

"Will the patriarch let Tian fight that person?"

"I don't know! But from the patriarch's words, it seems so. But you know, Tian's daily activities only involve sweeping the yard; he has never trained. So how could Tian have the ability to fight that person?"

People began questioning Xiao Tian's actions and Fa Wa's words. In their judgment, Xiao Tian was a child uninterested in martial arts. This was evident because the child was never seen training.

Gan Feng restrained his anger and reluctantly sat beside Fa Wa. "If that's your opinion, it would be better. I can see who the true genius of your Sect is?"

Fa Wa looked at Xiao Tian. "Tian, are you sure you want to fight?"

Xiao Tian smiled faintly. "Grandfather, Tian doesn't want to fight because this person doesn't interest me. But his actions in our Sect are too arrogant, so I can't remain silent."

Xiao Tian looked at Daniel. "Senior Daniel, you can step down; let this person be my concern."

Daniel hesitated a bit because he shared the same thoughts as others. But Xiao Tian's strength in stopping Xing Han's attack made him think otherwise. "Alright, junior brother, be careful. This person is still hiding his strength."

"Senior doesn't need to worry; leave this to me." Xiao Tian smiled warmly at Daniel.

Xing Han snorted coldly. "Are you done with the pleasantries?"

Xiao Tian smiled slightly. But within his smile hid a ferocity unknown to Xing Han.

Daniel exited the martial arts arena, leaving Xiao Tian to face Xing Han.

Now, all eyes were on him. They wanted to see if the lazy boy had any martial arts skills.

Xiao Tian stood tall in the middle of the arena, his sharp gaze fixed on Xing Han, who mocked him with a sneering tone. "Boy, don't blame me for being ruthless! Swords have no eyes, so don't blame me if you get seriously injured," Xing Han taunted while gripping his sword tightly.

The people around the arena suddenly realized that Xiao Tian was weaponless, and they began to murmur with concern. At a critical moment, Daniel moved quickly. "Junior brother, take this!" Daniel shouted as he threw his sword towards Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian swiftly caught the sword Daniel threw. He nodded, "Thank you, senior." His words were full of respect, but his tone remained calm and confident.

After Xiao Tian held a weapon, Xing Han looked at Fa Wa. "Can the fight begin now?"

Fa Wa nodded in agreement, then raised his hand as a signal that the match could start. After receiving Fa Wa's approval, Xing Han didn't want to waste time. He tried to humiliate the boy in front of him.

Xing Han immediately unsheathed his sword, leaping at high speed.

Xiao Tian didn't move; he still stood calmly. When Xing Han made a slash, Xiao Tian only lifted his sword, still in its sheath.

The sound of clashing weapons echoed through everyone. However, seeing Xiao Tian easily block the attack, people were convinced that Xiao Tian had the skills and wasn't just boasting to seek attention.
