Chapter 471: Killing Sword

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“One Emperor actually appeared on Spirit Snake Island.”

“I can understand Happy appearing on Spirit Snake Island, but I didn’t expect that One Emperor would also be attracted there. If those two monsters had run into each other, I wonder what sort of sparks would fly.”

“I heard that Class One Hall tried to come into contact with One Emperor and form a connection with him. They hoped that they could make him into one of their core members in the higher management, but One Emperor doesn’t seem to have come to a decision yet.”

“Tsk tsk…”

“Could it be that One Emperor holds Class One Hall in contempt and intends to work with Happy?”

“Then Class One Hall and Towering Palace will end in a tragedy.”

The news of One Emperor and Happy appearing together on Spirit Snake Island soon stirred up all sorts of discussions in World of Martial Arts. Some people said terrible words about it, and some just spewed nonsense.

The two men were elites who stood at the top of the game, and they were at the eye of the storm. After the game had been launched for nearly eight months, they suddenly appeared on a small island together, so there was no way that the event would not affect the emotions of various parties.

Those who were truly observant knew that if both of them were really there for the Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual contained in Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber, the most intense fight between powerful players might erupt since the launching of World of Martial Arts!

One of them was One Emperor, who had a stable foothold at the top of Dragon Rank.

The other was the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank, Happy, who was invincible in everyone’s hearts.

But everyone also thought that if they did not fight but became friends, Class One Hall should not think about playing the game anymore. They could just retire from the frontlines, sell their equipment, and go home to plant vegetables or something.

For a period of time, discussions about whether One Emperor and Happy would end up in a conflict rose on the official website. Many people kept on imagining what would happen, and they stated their different opinions online.

“Happy, do you have any confidence in getting One Emperor on our side?”

The Three Lonely Wolves rushed to the base early in the morning and ate Happy’s churros while also drinking his red bean paste. They then glared at Happy’s very unhappy face.

“It’d be best if you could get him to join us. Even if you can’t become friends, don’t become enemies with him!”

“That’s right!” Chen Fan casually opened his phone and went to the short battle replay he downloaded and saved from the official website. “Last time, we thought that his only advantage over us was that his speed in practicing martial arts was faster, but when we saw this yesterday, we suspect that he has a pretty decent divine weapon with him, and he might have inherited…”

While he spoke, Happy’s gaze was attracted by the black flash that appeared on the screen. When he noticed that sword glare, a faint sense of danger rose in him, and a solemn air spread out from him. He stared without blinking at the sword glare on the screen.

The scene in the battle replay was very simple.

It seemed like the moment before a person was killed!

Happy had to ask Chen Fan to replay the scene a few times to see it clearly.

Within a dark forest, an even darker sword light suddenly charged out like a roaring beast! The sword glare, which came like a tidal wave, looked like a poisonous snake that was hidden in the dark. It cut into a person a few times like a flash of lightning, and the astonishing speed caused the people hidden in the forest to suffer a crushing defeat and die. It showed the ease and the domineering attitude from the person who executed the sword technique.

“What do you think?”

Chen Fan, Qi Ci, and Bai Lang watched Happy’s expression nervously.

Happy replayed the short video more than ten times before he looked away and leaned back against the couch. He then closed his eyes and released a sigh that said that he had expected this.

“As expected of One Emperor.”

“What do you think? I’m not wrong, right? Even Happy thinks that the guy is awesome.”

“Then we shouldn’t let Class One Hall grab him. Right now, Class One Hall already has four top-class players. If One Emperor joins Class One Hall, Mu Clan’s good situation—which just recently became like that, mind you—will not last for long. Things will become troublesome again.”

Qi Ci’s tone was solemn. The sword technique One Emperor showed in the battle replay was fast and terrifying.

The other version of the battle replay had been bought by the official website to be placed on the pay-per-view page. The three of them could sense the domineering presence and fierceness of One Emperor’s black sword glare, and they were very anxious.

The fight was over in less than three seconds. The suffocating atmosphere, and the pressure that caused a person to freeze and be unable to move was no longer as simple as a mere sword glare or sword force…

“It’s sword will!” Happy suddenly said.

The Three Lonely Wolves were stunned. “What?”

Happy’s expression was very calm. “I’m saying that the sword technique in the battle replay has fused with the sword will One Emperor has come to understand. Even though it might be the sword will that is attached to the divine weapon, based on how easily One Emperor could execute and pull it back, the possibility that he had come to understand it on his own is very high.”

The Three Lonely Wolves said nothing. They looked at each other at a loss, feeling baffled.

When Happy noticed the strangeness of the trio, he pushed his palm against his forehead. It was only then that he realized that the trio might not have come into contact with this level of gameplay, so it was only natural that they did not understand it.

Sword will was the supreme level of understanding of a martial art.

Defense, speed, domineering presence, how to launch kill-or-be-killed attacks, and how to kill.

There were many types of sword will. Different types of sword techniques had different types of spirit.

Those that were famous included Taichi Sword Will, Taichi Fist Will, Seven Wounds Fist’s fist will, Melancholic Sad Palms’s will, and Little Li Flying Dagger’s will.

It was only when a person understood the essence of the martial art could they bring out the profound secret within the sword technique to the greatest degree!

It was just like how Happy had understood the profound secret of Flying Dragon Sword Technique. When he was forced into the corner, the damage he could release in an instant would not lose to his secret technique Emperor Shocks World.

Once a person understood sword will, they could easily use the sword technique and release it at any moment they wanted based on the feeling they had when they first understood the sword will.

Even if the person who understood sword will was at the same qi realm as the other people in Life and Death Realm, the person who understood the essence of martial arts was like a sharper weapon!

When Happy explained that to the trio, they became even more confused.

Happy knew that it was something that required a person to study and understand martial arts. It was nothing that could be forced.

“Are you saying that One Emperor is very good? Is he as strong as you are?”

“Even better than me,” Happy said honestly.

Even though he faced the Three Lonely Wolves’ shocked gazes, Happy’s expression did not change.

He spoke truthfully.

In his previous life, no one had ever been able to come out alive when One Emperor attacked them.

No one ever got used to One Emperor’s sword technique. Each slash was a killing technique, and he was invincible regardless of whether he challenged a single person or an entire group!

This sort of elite was someone who carried a lot of weight in Happy’s heart even in his new life. Despite him having a full set of fourth-echelon equipment, One Emperor might not be inferior to him.

Besides, even though Happy had managed to get into the sixteen best in his previous life, he had never managed to get into the eight best, while One Emperor had always used just a few moves to kill his opponents from the start to the end, and he always did so in a relaxed manner.

His understanding toward sword wills had reached an astonishing degree. Even if Happy reached his peak in his previous life, he was not confident that he could receive ten slashes from One Emperor!

Besides, right now, his strength and equipment was far behind the level in his previous life.

If he ran into One Emperor, who was intent on getting Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual, Happy would have to say that it would be the greatest pressure he had faced in his life.

Even though the Three Lonely Wolves felt that Happy should be equals with One Emperor, Happy knew his own situation very clearly. The Three Lonely Wolves did not know One Emperor’s true strength at all. In fact, even the people in his previous life did not not manage to figure out One Emperor’s true strength.
