Chapter 118: Free sparring partner.
Xie Wuking didn’t expect he’ll have to actually teach the newcomer a lesson, but he wasn’t against it.
Turns out there were multiple arenas in the district belonging to the Hall of Ascension, but they all were next to the training grounds. There were tens of youths currently doing physical exercises, but nothing noteworthy that could catch Lee’s attention.
The few spars in arenas was a different matter, though. It would be one thing if people were beating each other up with fists, but here they used swords, daggers and spears. There was even a large fellow who carried a club, somewhat resembling the way Thorax fought. The moment Lee arrived, the guy broke his opponent’s leg, earning loud cheers from the audience.
"I’ll go register the fight!" One of Xie Wuking’s followers said, intending to run away, but Lee stopped him.
"No, wait!" He said.
"Changed your mind?" Xie Wuking grinned.
"No." Lee said, "If we do this, then we do it properly. Yesterday you wanted to sign an agreement, so we’ll make one for our fight as well."
"You want to place a bet? You arrived only yesterday! You don’t have any contribution points!" Xie Wuking said.
"True. But you insulted me, so I don’t intend to let you off so easily." Lee said, and the expressions of the bullies turned weird, "I plan to challenge you for three months straight, every evening at the same time. But for you to not chicken out I want to have it in writing!"
"His joking right?" One of the smaller guys asked.
But Xie Wuking didn’t find it funny. He hissed, "Wanna die?"
