Realizer of Death : The Reaper

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!" Wang Xin screamed in pain after one of his legs was broken by Gu Qingyang. The spectators felt a chill down their spine when they saw that sight. They thought that Gu Qingyang's methods were cruel and frightened them.

"Wang Xin!"

"Wang Xin!"

Wang Ruyue and Wang Zeming got up from their seats and shouted worriedly.

"What are you doing, Gu Qingyang!? Can't you see that Wang Xin is already heavily injured!? Why are you still torturing him!?" Wang Ruyue said angrily.

Gu Qingyang in the arena raised his eyebrows and smiled at Wang Ruyue. Then he stepped on Wang Xin's head and opened his mouth.

"What do you mean by that? Have you forgotten the rules of the competition? The match will end if he admits defeat, can no longer fight, leaves the arena, or loses consciousness. But none of those rules fit the current situation.

He was still fighting in the arena and had not lost consciousness. He didn't want to admit defeat and kept trying to stand up. So as a participant, I'm still allowed to fight with him. After all, the referee would stop the match if he lost. If you persist in interfering with the match, you will be disqualified." Gu Qingyang smiled evilly and kicked Wang Xin in the stomach, causing him to vomit blood, and he was blown away to a corner of the arena.

"Gu... Qing... Yang!" Wang Zeming roared angrily when he saw that. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his skin and bled. He and Wang Ruyue couldn't do anything because what Gu Qingyang said was the truth. But they couldn't bear to see Wang Xin tortured by Gu Qingyang.

Wang Ruyue and Wang Zeming intended to enter the arena, but Tenku quickly held their hands to stop them.

"Why?" Wang Ruyue looked at Tenku and asked.

"If you interfere with the match, the Wang family's losses will multiply. Do you still not realize that Gu Qingyang purposely tortured Wang Xin so that you all would break the rules and be disqualified? That way, he could eliminate the two participants from the Wang family without having to fight." Tenku explained.

Wang Ruyue and Wang Zeming trembled when they heard Tenku's words. They finally realized that they had almost fallen for Gu Qingyang's scheming. Luckily, Tenku stopped and reminded them.

Wang Zeming looked at Jin Zhaohui and the other seven referees around the arena. They seemed to have no intention of stopping the match. Even one of the referees from the Wang family couldn't do anything about it because Gu Qingyang's actions did not violate the competition rules. So the only way to end the fight was for Wang Xin to do it himself.

"Wang Xin! Admit your defeat now! You are not his opponent! Stop being stubborn!" Wang Zeming shouted to Wang Xin. Wang Xin heard his voice and intended to raise his hand to admit defeat, but Gu Qinyang quickly stepped on his other foot.

Click!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" Wang Xin screamed miserably and finally lost consciousness.

"Match over! The winner is Gu Qingyang of the Gu family!" Jin Zhaohui quickly announced the winner of the match after seeing that Wang Xin had lost consciousness.

"Wang Xin!"

"Wang Xin!"

Wang Ruyue and Wang Zeming dashed into the arena, and Tenku followed behind them. They immediately checked Wang Xin's condition and the two's faces sank when they noticed his weak pulse. His face was pale, and his heartbeat slowed down. They could confirm that Wang Xin was seriously injured even though they weren't doctors.

Wang Xin had some external injuries, but his internal organs were severely damaged by Gu Qingyang's kicks and punches, especially his two broken legs. If not adequately treated, then Wang Xin would likely be crippled and stop being a cultivator. Wang Zeming clenched his fists and looked at Gu Qingyang with bloodshot eyes.

"Your actions are too cruel! You should have won already, and there was no need to hurt him that badly! Why did you have to break his leg!?" Wang Zeming said furiously.

"Hmm? What are you saying? I didn't break any competition rules. He kept trying to get up and refused to give up. So I broke his leg so he would no longer put up a pointless struggle.

You should blame him. A weakling like him shouldn't even try to fight me since that action could put him in harm's way. This time I was still generous with him and didn't hurt his hands either. But I won't be this good in another match." Gu Qingyang replied indifferently and glanced at Tenku at the end of his sentence.

"You!" Wang Zeming felt like exploding when he heard Gu Qingyang's threat. He wanted to attack the first genius of the Gu family, but Tenku quickly held him by the shoulders to prevent him.

"You can't do that because you will be disqualified. If you want to avenge Wang Xin, you can only do it in the arena." Tenku reminded Wang Zeming.

"But!" Wang Zeming couldn't immediately accept Tenku's words and tried to break away from him. He knew he could be disqualified if he attacked Gu Qingyang outside the match. But Wang Xin's circumstances and Gu Qingyang's threats made him unable to control his emotions.

"I know how you feel now. Wang Xin is your cousin, and you are the grandson of the Wang family's patriarch, so you won't be able to allow a disciple of your family to be harmed like that. But now is not the time for your revenge. Besides, are you sure you can beat him?" Tenku said seriously and strengthened his grip on Wang Zeming's shoulder.

"That is..." Wang Zeming was speechless when he heard Tenku's words. He had forgotten about it as his anger consumed him.

Wang Zeming was the first genius of the Wang family and one of the strongest young cultivators in Beijing. He was confident that he could fight against the first geniuses of the other major families, except for the Gu family. Wang Zeming felt that the strength of Gu Qingyang's first genius was unfathomable and mysterious. Wang Zeming doubted he could fight him if they met in the arena.

"Therefore, please be patient for now and suppress your anger. After the second round is over, the match will resume tomorrow. You will have one day to strengthen yourself and prepare to fight against Gu Qingyang. But with the premise that you still win your match and enter the final. That is a matter for you to think about later because the most important thing now is to treat Wang Xin as soon as possible." Tenku continued his words and didn't give Wang Zeming time to reply.

Tenku overheard the participant chat about the time of the competition. The organizers initially planned to hold the quarter-finals today. But they didn't expect some of the matches in the first round to last long enough, taking up much competition time.

Not to mention the participants have to take a break to recover their strength and body so they can return to their peak. Otherwise, martial arts competitions would be boring if cultivators fought in bad conditions.

So after the second round, the remaining eight participants will take a break and fight in the quarter-finals tomorrow. They could increase their strength a bit during that time, which might change the match's outcome.

"You are right. I should focus on Wang Xin now and not respond to his provocations." Wang Zeming took a deep breath to calm his mind. He looked at Gu Qingyang coldly and ignored him. Then he rechecked Wang Xin's condition. Tenku wanted to follow, but Gu Qingyang's voice stopped him.

"That was the start, and you are the next. I will ensure that you will experience more pain than Wang Xin. I want you to know the price one has to pay for daring to touch my woman and go against the Gu family." Gu Qingyang threatened Tenku and left the arena without waiting for his reply.

"Is that so? I want to see who will have a more painful experience than Wang Xin. I hope the family won't be too angry about that when the time comes." Tenku muttered without anyone hearing his words.

After Gu Qingyang left the arena, the medical team arrived with a stretcher. After checking Wang Xin's condition, they quickly brought him to the treatment place. The medical team knew Wang Xin's injuries were severe and needed to be treated immediately.

Wang Ruyue wanted to follow the medical team to learn about Wang Xin's condition in detail, but Tenku held her hand.

"Let the medical team do their job, and you should focus on your match. After all, other people will be accompanying him." Tenku said softly and pointed at Wang Xiuying, who was running after the medical team.

"I understand." Wang Ruyue nodded after seeing that. She could rest easy if Wang Xin were accompanied by his sister.

"Alright. You better return to your seats because we're about to start the second match." Jin Zhaohui reminded Tenku and the others.

"Ah, we're sorry." Wang Zeming lowered his head slightly to Jin Zhouhui and quickly left the arena with Tenku and Wang Ruyue.

After Tenku and the others returned to their seats, Jin Zhaohui called out for the next participant who would fight in the second round. He was a young cultivator named Jun Wushuang, whose cultivation base was at the late stage of the Earth Origin realm.

The person who would become his opponent was the first genius of the Long family, Long Aotian. The two of them chose spears as their weapons. The audience could already guess who would be the victor in that fight because the strength of the two differed significantly, just like the match between Gu Qingyang and Wang Xin.

Jin Zhaohui quickly started the second match after seeing the two enter the arena. But just as the audience had expected, Long Aotian could defeat his opponent in less than ten minutes. Tenku was disappointed that Long Aotian didn't use his full strength in that match, and he couldn't figure out his trump card.

The referees immediately started the third match after the battle between Jun Wushuang and Long Aotian was over, and the person who would fight next was Huang Yuxin. The person he was fighting against was a cultivator called Lu Renjia. They had the same cultivation base, but Huang Yuxin defeated her opponent after fighting for thirty minutes.

"We will start the fourth match. For the two winners from arena D, please choose your weapons now." Jin Zhaohui called out to the next participant.

A young man walked into the arena. His name is Qin Yuan, and he is one of the geniuses of the Qin family. Then the person who would become his opponent in the match would be one of the most beautiful girls in Beijing and a genius from the Wang family, Wang Ruyue.
