Chapter 28 : The Sword Maiden of Clear Rain
28: The Sword Maiden of Clear Rain
"Ding, you successfully shocked the many spectators of the Underground Fighting Arena. Gained 9 Soul Charm Points."
"You successfully countered the announcer's remarks. Gained 3 Soul Charm Points."
"You successfully struck back against Lewis's contempt for you. Gained 5 Soul Charm Points."
"You successfully reversed the one-sided odds, causing severe fluctuations in the souls of most bettors. Gained 10 Soul Charm Points."
A series of golden texts, accompanied by that ancient female voice, appeared one after another in Yuyin's consciousness.
The gains from this battle exceeded Yuyin's expectations.
This Underground Fighting Arena was truly a holy ground for collecting Soul Charm Point. Yuyin was thrilled, not just because of the victory, but because of the huge harvest of Soul Charm Points.
As for the barely noticeable referee, after counting a few numbers, he hurriedly lowered the wire mesh and climbed onto the stage to check on the motionless Lewis lying on the ground.
There was no need to check; the appearance of Soul Charm Points had already explained everything.
Yuyin turned around, not even glancing back at the fallen Lewis. As the referee waved for a stretcher, she walked off the fighting stage.
It seemed Lewis had been knocked unconscious. Yuyin had still underestimated the force of that strike. After many days of cultivating her Primordial Energy, enhanced by the Jade Body Ice Fruit, combined with her initial mastery of the Polaris Sword Art, the power of Yuyin's sword was far more terrifying than she looked. With this strike, fueled by the anger she had been suppressing because of her surroundings, she had managed to send a huge man of over one hundred kilograms flying with both feet off the ground; its power was evident.
What was more crucial was that when faced with Lewis's heavy axe chopping toward her shoulder, in that split second, Yuyin's energy was highly concentrated. She precisely found the perfect moment to strike and block, decisively making her move and shattering Lewis's attack.
This was Yuyin's first true battle. Although she was nervous, the nervousness didn't affect her performance; instead, it made her more focused and more acute.
"The vic... victor... my god, this is an unprecedented event in our fighting arena. It has never happened before; an amateur challenger, an ordinary person, has achieved victory. And she's even a woman..."
"She... she won! The mysterious woman from Lingdu, she has won!" the announcer shouted.
The entire arena erupted.
Although it was hard to believe at first, the fact before their eyes seemed like a miracle, stirring the blood of the audience.
After all, Yuyin was from Huaxia, and also a tall, enchanting woman. For such a woman to defeat the powerful giant Black man stirred the passion and pride of the entire audience.
Previously, although some of them had mocked Yuyin, it couldn't be helped. It wasn't that they didn't want a Huaxia person to win, but the gap was simply too large. Everyone had just assumed Yuyin was a female fan with something wrong with her head.
But this Underground Fighting Arena craved heroes and revered miracles.
All at once, Yuyin's image in their minds changed from that of a female fan or a woman who would do anything for fame to that of a deeply hidden female master.
"She must be the child of a prestigious and powerful family."
"Yes, she must have descended the mountain at the behest of a Grandmaster to train."
"That Black guy had it rough. He thought it was a romantic encounter, but he ran into a buzzsaw."
Many in the audience were both cheering and crying. After all, they thought they were making a safe investment, but it turned out to be a total loss. They had lost badly on this one.
Yuyin had achieved her goal. Without stopping, she left directly through the fighters' entrance.
"This way, Miss Xia!" A group of enforcers and assistants crowded around her. The Manager had also personally come to greet her. At this moment, everyone in the fighting arena was extremely polite to Yuyin. Even the powerful fighters who were watching and about to compete couldn't help but gasp and look at Yuyin with new respect.
The victory prize was 20,000 yuan, transferred directly to Yuyin's account. The Manager also earnestly begged Yuyin to come and fight another match next weekend.
This Underground Fighting Arena not only had live audiences but was also broadcast live on many underground websites, where people could also bet with Spirit Marbles. a skilled, mysterious, tall female Huaxia fighter was a huge draw for crowds.
After returning home, Yuyin took a shower, changed her clothes, and then began to buy chess pieces.
This time she was calmer, not blindly rushing through them, but buying the pieces she needed for the day each day.
And after that... she went online to buy various necessities she hadn't been able to afford before.
After all, Yuyin was a young woman, and as lovely as she was, there were many things to spend money on.
She finally had money. This was 20,000 yuan! It was money she had earned through her own hard work and opportunity. Before her rebirth, Yuyin had never had so much money at her disposal. At least she didn't have to worry about living expenses anymore. In the future, when she went for juice with Yingluo and the others, she wouldn't have to feel conflicted.
After a week of buying chess pieces, Yuyin's Soul Charm Points were almost spent. The Initial Territory had undergone significant changes by now.
Not only had the Initial Territory expanded, but different groups of chess pieces began to gather among themselves. The Little Ghosts dug holes in a mountain at the edge of the Initial Territory and started living in groups, while the Ox Ghosts occupied a natural cave.
Under Xiao Yuan's command, the White Apes and Little Ghosts also built some fences and earthen walls outside the Initial Territory.
A primitive, barbaric demon settlement was gradually taking shape.
The total demon population had now reached around 50.
In other words, about 50 demons were fighting day and night, earning Primordial Energy for Yuyin. How could her cultivation not be fast with this?
By the weekend, Yuyin's Primordial Energy value had reached 97.
This meant it had already surpassed Long Xiaotian's value from the winter break, when he was the strongest in the school. Of course, he was also in intensive training, so it was unclear what his current level was.
As her Primordial Energy value approached 100, Yuyin also began to feel more obvious changes in her body. Her strength was greater, her speed faster, and her energy more abundant. Not to mention, her senses of sight and hearing had become more acute. Of course, her skin remained as fair and delicate as ever. Although she practiced the sword art every day and her strength had greatly increased, it didn't detract from her feminine charm in the slightest. No, on the contrary, it might have even made her more charming.
After all, Yuyin's strength did not come from her muscles.
On this Sunday evening, Yuyin's opponent was that Tang Menglong.
Yuyin appeared on stage in the same white skirt and black attire, wearing her mask.
Following the suggestion of Third Brother, that is, the Manager, Yuyin had taken an alias for herself: Qingyu.
And in the Underground Fighting Arena's online forums, the video of Yuyin's last battle had already spread. Someone started calling this mysterious woman "Sister Sword Maiden," and this nickname became popular within the week.
"The next match is, I'm sure, what everyone has been eagerly awaiting for a week. It features the mysterious woman who burst onto the scene last week and defeated Lewis with a single move, facing the eight-consecutive-victory Giant Sword, Tang Menglong!"
"And here's some good news: this mysterious woman has decided to join the professional fighting circuit. From this day forward, she is our Underground Fighting Arena's: Qingyu, the Sword Maiden!"
