Using One's Own Way to Treat Him
"What happened?"
Below the arena, Xiao Zhen's teammates were all incredibly surprised. Xiao Zhen had clearly dodged Sun Long's attack, so how did he get hit again?
That claw cut into the face was truly horrific; the entire face was sliced open, and it's estimated that even the facial bone was cut in.
Behind these people, Yi Yun's face was gloomy.
Sun Long's strength far surpasses Xiao Zhen's; he could have easily defeated Xiao Zhen, only injuring him slightly.
But he didn't do that. He first specified where to attack, so that Xiao Zhen was prepared, but was still attacked.
This is a great disgrace for martial artists.
Moreover, having one's face cut open, nearly disfigured, is also a disgrace.
Such a humiliation, especially on such an important occasion, under the watchful eyes of important figures from various powerful groups, is tantamount to stomping Xiao Zhen's face on the ground.
It might even shatter Xiao Zhen's confidence in learning martial arts, causing him to develop inner demons from then on.
Even if Xiao Zhen's facial injuries are completely healed, he will find it difficult to shake off the psychological trauma. His opponent's actions were truly despicable!
"Xiao Zhen, admit defeat and get off the field!"
Yi Yun stood up; the outcome of the battle was already clear.
Originally, it was a good thing to let these young masters and ladies who had never experienced brutal combat have a taste of bloodshed. However, too much of a good thing can be bad. If this fighting continues, it may cause Xiao Zhen to develop Xiao Zhen demons, which could lead to his failure to break through in the future.
Xiao Zhen covered his face, because his mouth and right cheek had been cut open, making it almost impossible for him to speak. He tried with great difficulty to open his mouth.
Just then, his vision blurred, and he suddenly felt his right foot and right hand become icy cold. Then came a piercing pain.
"Ah!"
Blood spurted out again, and Xiao Zhen rolled away. The tendons in his right hand and right foot had been severed!
Sun Long licked the blood from the steel claws, laughing wildly, "Hahaha, I said I'd sever your tendons, how could I go back on my word? I'm a man of my word."
Hearing Sun Long's words, Xiao Zhen's teammates were furious. This was outrageous!
According to the rules of the league's ranking matches, as long as you don't intentionally kill or permanently injure someone, it's not considered a foul.
However, defining what constitutes "intentional" is actually quite difficult.
The rules themselves have loopholes. Besides, Sun Long severing Xiao Zhen's tendons in his hands and feet is not considered a permanent disability. Such injuries can be cured with good medicine.
The humiliation and psychological trauma inflicted on Xiao Zhen are difficult to heal.
"It's really ugly!"
Sun Long shook his head, and behind him, the trial participants from the Cloud Dragon Divine Kingdom burst into laughter.
"These are the warriors of Tai'a Divine City, like stray dogs. It's a disgrace for us, the Seventy-Two Towers of Cloud Dragon, to be ranked alongside you!"
Some unpleasant words reached the ears of Yi Yun's team members, and Viper gave Yi Yun a thumbs-up while making a downward gesture.
"Weak!"
The players present were all teenagers, a time when their self-esteem is at its peak. To be humiliated like this, one can only imagine the humiliation and anger they felt.
Xiao Zhen, in particular, was severely injured and his body was trembling. He truly wished he could die in exchange for victory in this battle.
Yi Yun remained silent, calmly looking at Sun Long on the stage. "Your Sun Long?"
"Yes, you can remember my name!" Sun Long laughed freely, her chin slightly raised, her gaze towards Yi Yun's team filled with disdain.
Yi Yun gently touched the ring on her hand, her tone remaining calm, "I've already made him admit defeat, why continue attacking?"
"You want him to admit defeat? You think I'll stop just because you want him to admit defeat? Who do you think you are? You're hilarious!" Sun Long looked at Yi Yun like he was an idiot. "You think you're the captain? Don't you know the rules? Only when the opponent admits defeat verbally does it count. Who told him not to say anything earlier! Hahaha!"
Sun Long laughed loudly, and Viper and the others behind him laughed along.
"Tsk tsk, those eyes are terrifying."
Sun Long looked at Yi Yun. He knew that Yi Yun's calm eyes contained murderous intent, but he was not afraid at all. "Who's next? Come up here. This time, shall I cut off your right cheek or your left cheek?"
"You're asking for it! I'll avenge Xiao Zhen!"
Although the youths of Tai'a Divine City had lost their momentum, they were still full of passion. How could they tolerate Sun Long's provocation?
A boy gripped the edge of the ring, about to jump up, but Wen Yu stopped him.
"You're no match for him; going up against him will only embolden him!"
Wen Yu gritted her teeth, preparing to go on stage herself. Facing Sun Long, Wen Yu actually felt a lot of pressure, as the other party was older than her.
"Tsk tsk! What a pretty little girl. You want to come up here? It would be quite interesting to cut open a pretty girl's face."
Sun Long's words enraged Wen Yu even more.
Just then, she heard Yi Yun's voice transmission through his internal energy. "You haven't even started the match yet, and you've already let his provocative words throw you off balance. If you keep fighting like this, you'll lose more than you win."
"I..."
Wen Yu looked at Yi Yun, feeling somewhat aggrieved. She thought to herself, "If you hadn't taken on the challenge of such a group full of freaks, would things have come to this?"
"You stay on the sidelines."
Yi Yun spoke, he stepped onto the arena.
"Senior Brother Yi!"
Wen Yu was stunned. The captain of each group was always the last to go on stage. If he went on stage early and was defeated, the whole game would be lost. It was like using the king to charge into battle in a game of chess.
She didn't have time to stop Yi Yun; by then, Yi Yun had already walked to the opposite side of Sun Long.
Sun Long glanced at Yi Yun disdainfully, "You think you're the commander-in-chief? You're already so impatient. Once you're in, you'll never be able to leave!"
Behind Sun Long, Viper also looked at Yi Yun with disdain. As the commander-in-chief, he was so irrational as to go on stage. Those two cloaked figures yesterday were actually jealous of such a fool. This Savage Bone Relic was really easy money.
Facing Yi Yun, Sun Long casually moved his wrist, the steel claws on his hands gleaming with a chilling light. Although he outwardly looked down on Yi Yun, he was actually on high alert.
Yesterday, two cloaked figures delivered detailed information about Yi Yun. Sun Long knew that Yi Yun was very strong and also knew about his various moves.
Sun Long really wanted to fight Yi Yun. Defeating a few small fry was nothing; defeating Yi Yun and securing a seat would be a real achievement!
"Where's your knife? Show it to me!"
"Oh? You seem to know me quite well, knowing I use a knife. But... I usually only use my knife against those I respect, or powerful opponents. To deal with scum and idiots, I usually use another weapon..."
Yi Yun gently stroked his Space Ring, a wicked smile curving his lips.
Upon seeing that smile, Sun Long's heart skipped a beat. He felt a sense of familiarity with it, because he often smiled like that himself.
His face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "I'll show you who the real fool is!"
He was speculating whether Yi Yun's other weapon was a bow. The information sent by the cloaked man only mentioned Yi Yun's two strongest weapons—the bow and the sword—and didn't mention anything else.
Yi Yun ignored Sun Long's retort and suddenly remembered something, saying, "Right... you just said that in the competition rules, only when the opponent admits defeat verbally does it count, and if they don't admit defeat verbally, it doesn't count, right?"
Before Yi Yun Sun Long could answer, Yi Yun held up three fingers, "Three moves, and I'll smash your left cheek, left hand, and left foot!"
"You! You're asking for it!" Sun Long was furious. This Yi Yun was simply courting death, actually using the same words he had spoken to him. Did he think he was someone to be trifled with?
Sun Long's entire body surged with murderous intent, his pupils locked onto Yi Yun, and his body charged out like a cheetah!
However, after he had only taken a few steps, Yi Yun in his pupils suddenly vanished!
Um!?
Sun Long was shocked, and in the next instant, he felt a chill spread throughout his body. Yi Yun appeared on his left side like a ghost!
He instinctively reached out to stab Yi Yun in the chest with his claw, but just then, he felt a hand pressing down on his head.
The hand suddenly grabbed his head, and then another hand appeared, this one now bearing a rectangular metal object.
Sun Long didn't even have time to figure out what it was before the metal object grew larger and larger until it filled his entire field of vision.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, Yi Yun grabbed Sun Long's head with one hand and used a metal brick to smash it hard onto Sun Long's left cheek with the other!
Yi Yun showed no mercy with this brick, smashing it like an overripe, rotten watermelon, completely shattering Sun Long's facial bones!
Sun Long's body jolted. He felt as if his head had been struck by a massive hammer. His vision went completely black, his ears rang, and his mind went blank. It was as if, in that moment, he was completely cut off from the world, and his soul had been ripped away.
But then, the excruciating pain that followed pulled him back to reality.
Yi Yun had already let go of her hand, Sun Long knelt on the ground, vomiting as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Puff!"
Sun Long spat out everything he ate, including more than a dozen bloodstained teeth.
Yi Yun knocked out all his teeth.
His limbs were ice cold, and blood was flowing from his ears and nostrils. The left side of his face was completely rotten, and a large part of his facial bone was sunken in.
Yi Yun looked at Sun Long coldly, "A mortal struck on the head might feel nauseous and vomit, but I didn't expect you to be one of them. Do you want to admit defeat?"
Yi Yun asked, Sun Long opened his mouth, but the left side of his jaw was broken off, and his mouth was completely rotten, so how could he speak?
"Oh? You're not going to admit defeat?" Yi Yun nodded. "I understand."
"Stop!"
Just then, Viper's cold voice echoed in Yi Yun's ears.
But why would Yi Yun pay him any attention?
Yi Yun kicked Sun Long, who was lying like a dead dog, into the air. Sun Long fell to the ground in a spread-eagle position. Yi Yun raised a brick and smashed it down, one brick hitting Sun Long's left hand and the other hitting Sun Long's left ankle!
Sun Long screamed in agony as Yi Yun smashed his hands and feet into mangled flesh and bones!
Comminuted fracture!
