Chapter 311: The Number One Warrior of Magical Beast Realm

After confirming with Yang Ling that they would have the match the next day at the Magical Beast Plaza, Sword Emperor Elderweiss quickly left without a word. He moved into a small remote valley at the border of Terras Forest. Swinging his sword amid the falling snow, Elderweiss prepared himself for the battle on the next day.

Should he hack him into two, or should he sever his tendons then stab him to death, one stab at a time?

Elderweiss felt anger surge through his veins when he thought about the outrageous Yang Ling. He had challenged too many powerhouses, more than he could count; amongst them, there were noblemen with wealth that could rival a country. However, he has never seen an opponent like Yang Ling.

Many factions have reached out to him over the years. They offered him generous terms, in the hope that he would take their side. In their eyes, he was a powerful and reputable man. Yang Ling, however, demeaned him as though he was worthless.

This Lord named Yang Ling must pay for his disrespect with blood!

Yang Ling’s mocking look came to mind, infuriating Elderweiss. His will to battle was stronger than ever. The snow was still falling; his piercing sword aura sliced snowflakes into tiny pieces which disintegrated before they could even fall to the ground.

Elderweiss’s swordplay got faster and faster until one could only make out the blurry remnant of his movements. It may be due to the dense killing aura or the immense energy ripple pulsating through the area, but not a single magical beast dared to go near the little valley.

While the furious Sword Emperor Elderweiss is wholly focused on preparing for his battle, the workers of the Magical Beast Realm Military Factory were hard at work.

Upon receiving Yang Ling’s instructions, Corpse Wizard King Rodriguez paced up and down like a supervisor. He recalled Yang Ling’s directions and laughed “Keke” out loud in excitement.

“Faster, faster, faster! Have you guys not have your meals? You can’t even hold a carving knife stably!” the Corpse Wizard King took another big gulp of Rum. He then hurried the gnomes, who are in charge of drawing the Spell Formations.

Cunning and despicable!

The Corpse Wizard King thought back on Yang Ling’s orders, then glanced at the immobile magical beasts bound by the Numbing Spell. The Gnomes drew various types of spell formations on it. The Corpse Wizard King felt that he gained a better understanding of his master, Yang Ling.

When he realized Yang Ling’s intentions, even an evil Corpse Wizard like him would concede. However, he liked Yang Ling’s ways. The more despicable it is, the better!

The Dimension of Dead Souls was filled with countless battles, big and small. There was nothing the dead souls won’t do to survive. Only the most unscrupulous dead soul can find their footing in this land of savages. As an all-powerful Corpse Wizard King, Rodriguez was, of course, familiar with all sorts of unspeakable methods.

When you think that you’ve reached the limit of despicableness, you can always go a step further!

Such is the motto of Corpse Wizards. Having gained a better perspective on Yang Ling’s character, the Corpse Wizard King can’t wait for the wonderful life ahead.

The Corpse Wizard King, Gnome Elder, and Master Aaron worked through the night to speed up the production of a secret weapon that could be used against Elderweiss. Yang Ling, on the other hand, had some free time on his hands. After leaving all to the zealous Corpse Wizard King, he wandered the streets and visited bustling pubs along the way.

When Sword Emperor Elderweiss had agreed to fight his follower the day after, he had unknowingly fallen into his trap. No matter how powerful or strong he is, Yang Ling has a million ways to make this the last fight of his life, with no chance to regret it. He will first wear down his patience and drive, then learn his patterns and weaknesses. When the time is ripe, he will strike where it is most deadly.

With the Ice-sealing Throne Armor in hand, Yang Ling has the confidence and capital to fight Elderweiss.

To regular folks, their understanding of a Divine Weapon would most probably be from rumors of its characteristics. They will not have an in-depth knowledge of a rare Divine Weapon. So long as he input his one-of-a-kind Wizard Power and Mental Energy, the Ice-sealing Armor and the Snow Divine Sword would undergo drastic changes in their appearances. Therefore, he needn’t worry about someone recognizing them as the Divine Weapons sealed in the underground city.

After walking down the busy streets and greeting some Hunters, Yang Ling went straight for Madam Thatcher’s Black Pearl Bar. Out of all of his haunts, this is still the pub with his favorite atmosphere. Of course, the beautiful waitresses shouldn’t be discounted, not forgetting the mesmerizing and attractive lady boss.

“His Lordship, you have such an important matter to attend tomorrow! Why are you still out for a drink?” Madam Thatcher immediately wiped down a bar stool when she saw Yang Lind striding in. Then, she served him a cup of aromatic Rum. As Yang Ling often frequented her bar, they had become closer.

“Hehe, let’s not talk about him, come more of these ‘Sword Emperors’, and they will still leave their lives behind!” Yang Ling smiled mysteriously upon seeing Madam Thatcher’s troubled expression. He laughed, “Beautiful Madam, please tell me that the scum Roke had not led your sweet Bess astray? When he comes to your bar, you must charge him double!”

“His Lordship, let’s put Roke aside. You promised to stay the previous time, but you sneaked away half-way through the drinking. Tell me, how do you intend to make up to me?”Madam Thatcher shot him an electrifying look and bowed deeply to top his wine.

At that instant, a whiff of fragrance spread right under Yang Ling’s nose. His sight fell at the cleavage of her long black dress, and from there, Yang Ling could clearly see a stretch of enticing white.

“Oh… …right, there’s the spar with Elderweiss tomorrow. I almost forgot.” Yang Ling looked at Madam Thatcher, who was already close but still tried to inch closer. He slapped his forehead and pretended to forget, left his glass on the bartop, then got up and stepped out.

Doing it for the first time with an inexperienced virgin would give a person a considerable sense of achievement. However, being together with a young widow like Madam Thatcher, who has lost her husband for years, would yield something entirely different. It is a comfort that spreads from the inside out, and madness that threatens to be all-consuming.

Just as women have got their sweet spots, so do men. It is clear as day that Madam Thatcher is an exquisite woman who can find that sweet spot in men and hit it hard.

There are only two kinds of men who could resist the temptation. The first is gay, and the second is impotent. Yang Ling is a functional man, he is fully functional by all means, and so he was therefore of no exception.

However, the charming Madam Thatcher may be an eye candy to Yang Ling, but it was all she was. He had not settled the matter with Elven beauty Sofia, and he has enough trouble on his plate. Especially so for a woman full of tact like Madam Thatcher; easy to get a hold of her, but it will be difficult to shake her off.

After leaving the Black Pearl Bar, Yang Ling went to the Military Factory to check on the progress of his secret weapon. Afterward, he rushed back to Wissen Castle for more secluded practice and continued to explore the secrets of the Ice-sealing Throne Armor.

A full day quickly passed.

The next morning, people filled the Magical Beast Plaza. As a precaution, the Corpse Wizard King took matters into his hands. He led spellcasters like Goode and Yuna to put up a Magic Barrier, to prevent the watchers from getting hurt from the fight.

“I heard that the Sword Emperor Elderweiss would first challenge a follower of His Lordship. I wonder who will his Lordship send on stage for the first round?”

“Tch, do you need to ask? It must be Dark Dragon King, the legendary Level Surpassing Magical Beast!”

“Tsk tsk, the Level Surpassing Dark Dragon! My heart almost jumped out of my mouth when it swept a glance at me in Black Water City!”

“The Dark Dragon King is indeed a reasonable selection. However, Elderweiss, whom people hailed as the Emperor of Swords, is a terrifyingly powerful being who killed more powerhouses than anyone could count. We’d have more of a fighting chance if a group of Dark Dragons all went up at once. With a single Dark Dragon King, I’m afraid… ..”

… …

People began to talk among themselves even before the start of the battle, trying to guess who would be the first to go against Sword Emperor Elderweiss. However, no matter if Yang Ling sent the Chimera King, Flying Dragon King, or the Dark Dragon King, they felt that the chance of winning the famous Elderweiss was low. Therefore, they all looked worried and anxious.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Magical Beast Plaza!” Seeing that the time is near, the Corpse Wizard King stepped up onto the stage. With a snap of his fingers, four wide crystal boards rose along the four edges of the stage, one on each side. The happenings of the stage were projected clearly on all of the crystal boards.

With a rich Crystal Mine in his possession, putting together some mega-sized Crystal Boards became a piece of cake. Through the rare Illusory Crystals and Light Element Projection Spell, he could broadcast what was on stage in real-time for all to see.

“Oh, my goodness! A large scale Light Element Spell!”

“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect the projections to be so clear and defined!”

… …

Just as Yang Ling and the Corpse Wizard King expected, the live stream Crystal Boards ignited the crowds almost instantly. Watching the high definition projections on the screens, from old men as old as 70 or 80 years old, to sniffing toddlers only a few years of age, everyone was deeply impressed.

“Very well. No, let us invite the Sword…Sword something on stage!” invited the Corpse Wizard King, who pretended to stammer. Sword Emperor Elderweiss trembled in anger, for he had prepared to wow the crowd by landing featherlight on stage. The fury he suppressed with great difficulty by meditating the entire night soared again.

“Quiet down, everyone. Now, let us briefly introduce the amazing achievements of Sir Elderweiss!” the Corpse Wizard king widely beamed when he saw Elderweiss puffing his chest proudly at his announcement. He continued, “According to incomplete statistics, Sir Elderweiss could write at the age of one, and pick up a heavy sword at the age of two. He was known as a genius rarely born to the continent!”

Genius?

Words of the Corpse Wizard King, now disguised as Roke, sparked commotion within the crowd. They were all in awe. Sword Emperor Elderweiss, who stood at the side, became even prouder at the introduction. He put out his chest like his humiliation has been cleansed.

“A genius, indeed. Rumor has it that Sir Elderweiss could fight while riding a Short-legged Horse when he was five, shoot arrows while riding a Cloud Condor when he was six, sit on the bellies of the maids at the age of seven… …”

Sit on the bellies of his maids?

The arena burst into laughter the moment the crowd caught onto the joke. Ever since Sword Emperor Elderweiss got famous, every milestone of his life has been spread by Travelling Poets. The story of him when he was a naughty kid, riding the bellies of his maids while cultivating and playing, was recorded as well.

Atrocious, it’s too atrocious!

Seeing that the Corpse Wizard King had spilled everything, even his outrageous deeds as a child, Elderweiss’s expression alternated between dark and pale. Aside from being incensed, he was also utterly embarrassed.

“Heheh, please don’t take it seriously, everyone. It’s just a joke!” the Corpse Wizard Elder quickly changed the topic when he saw Elderweiss striding towards him, fully intending to cut short his introduction by force, “our Lordship has thousands of soilers, and has countless powerful followers. Tell me, who is the number one warrior of the Magical Beast Realm?”

“Commander Ashnamov, Commander Ashnamov… …”

“Dark Dragon, Dark Dragon, Dark Dragon… …”

… …

Everyone fixed their eyes on the Corpse Wizard King, who intentionally withheld the answer. Everyone began to yell for the number one warrior of the Magical Beast Realm in their hearts. Some yelled the name of the Navy Commander Ashnamov, others yelled for the Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon… …in fact, he could hear someone calling for Yuna, the goddess who won the hearts of people. With the encouragement of the Corpse Wizard King, the atmosphere at the scene soon became feverish.
