Chapter 1040: Swear Not to Surrender
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Braydon Neal stood on the high platform with his hands behind his back, staring at the screen of the youth group. The first name hanging high above was the one with the highest points.
His name was Shia Decker, and he had 122 points.
It meant that he had won a hundred matches in a row, and he would score one point for every person he defeated.
It meant that Shia had defeated 122 martial artists of the same generation.
Such a proud battle record was indeed extraordinary.
Following closely behind were the names of others. Without exception, they were all pinnacle martial artists.
Braydon’s attention was mostly on the youth group.
As for the junior youth and middle-aged groups, Braydon obviously didn’t care too much.
Frediano Jadanza and the others also arrived at the high platform early in the morning.
“Brother, do you know the young man on the third ring?” Westley Hader asked softly.
“Farron Sampson, the best in our Northern Military School. He’s a good seedling.”
Braydon looked at the third ring. A tall young man in military uniform was standing there. That was Farron, a fourth-level king. He was a rare genius in the Northern Military School.
Everyone knew that the Northern Military School had a close relationship with the Northern Army.
More than 90% of the high-ranking generals in the Northern Army were from the Northern Military School.
Even Braydon was from the Northern Military School.
The graduates of the Northern Military School would generally be recruited by the Northern Army.
Geniuses like Farron had been training in the Northern Army for a long time before they graduated. It was not an exaggeration to call him the Northern Army’s son.
“He’s talented and strong,” Frediano said softly. “He’s already won nine matches in a row. Joshua has taken a fancy to him and wants to recruit him into the ninth legion.”
“Is there a suitable place for him?”
Braydon asked.
The 10 legions of the Northern Army had 100 regimental commanders, and they were all solid regimental commanders of the army.
Since Joshua Mandor had recruited Farron into the Northern Army, he had to give him a suitable position.
“From what Joshua said,” Tobey Lapras said, “Farron will take the position of deputy regimental commander and train for a year.”
“Alright!”
Braydon nodded lightly.
This was because Braydon had set a rule a few years ago that graduates of the Northern Military School were not allowed to take up any official positions in the Northern Army.
Because the regimental commanders of the Northern Army were in charge of 10,000 elites each.
Although Farron’s talent and strength were pretty decent, he was still lacking to be a regimental commander. One was his experience, and the other was his battle achievements!
On the third arena.
Farron stood tall and straight. He was dressed in a Northern Army military uniform and had a black cold sword in his hand.
Based on his attire alone, no one would believe that he was not a member of the Northern Army.
Farron welcomed his tenth opponent in the arena.
A king-level young martial artist!
Farron sheathed his sword and told his opponent his name. “Northern Military School, Farron Sampson!”
“I have never been interested in the names of the dead!”
The young martial artist on the stage had triangular eyes that revealed a great deal of disdain and a sense of killing intent.
He had gone on stage for Farron!
Farron was not angered, nor did he lose his cool. He slowly pulled out the cold sword from his waist with his left hand. Without wasting any time, he took a step forward, and a sharp sword
Qi appeared on the cold sword in his hand!
A king could release their force through the blade, which was sword Qi.
The young martial artist, Scorpio Woodard, sneered and moved sideways.
In just a second, he had moved nearly 60 meters!
He was quite fast!
Swoosh!
Cold sweat appeared on Farron’s face as he felt immense pressure.
“I’m here!” Scorpio flashed behind Farron and said sinisterly.
Farron’s pupils constricted. He held the sword in his hand and slashed behind him.
Scorpio’s attack was even faster.
The terrifying force hit Farron in the back.
Bang!
Farron spat out a mouthful of blood and was injured on the spot.
However, it did not take Farron’s life.
On the high platform in the distance, the faces of Braydon and the others instantly turned cold.
Frediano and the others were not angry because Farron was injured.
There was another reason!
“Scorpio’s strength is at least at the half-step pinnacle realm,” Syrus Yanagi said in a low voice.
“He could have killed Farron with a single palm strike or thrown him out of the arena with a single palm strike, but he didn’t do so.”
Frediano’s eyes flashed coldly.
Wounded but not killed.
It was humiliation!
Scorpio was toying with Farron in front of nearly 300,000 martial artists.
He could not hide this from Braydon and the others.
On the third ring, Scorpio’s speed was constantly changing. The force of each palm enveloped the entire ring.
The force released exceeded 90 meters!
As everyone was aware, to do this, a martial artist needed to be at least a ninth-level king.
Farron was only a fourth-level king.
The difference between the two was huge.
Scorpio did not seem to want to defeat Farron so quickly. He said maliciously, “Farron Sampson, surrender. I will let you walk down the arena alive!”
“Dream on!”
Farron’s lips were bleeding. He held the blade in both hands and charged forward. He growled, “The men of the northern territory would never surrender even when facing death. We are born in the Northern Army and are loyal to the army commander. We die in battle without regrets!”
A hoarse roar resounded throughout the entire arena.
Many people looked askance at him.
“Useless trash!” Scorpio snorted coldly.
After saying that.
Scorpio didn’t dodge anymore. Instead, he chose to fight head-on.
Farron slashed down with his sword.
Scorpio dodged and raised his left hand, pointing at Farron’s right shoulder.
Puff!
A round bloody hole appeared.
Scorpio condensed his strength between his fingers to avoid Farron’s vital points. His finger pierced through his shoulder blade, bringing with it a mouthful of blood.
Farron’s chest was bleeding profusely, and he couldn’t even lift his right arm.
Scorpio did not stop. He followed up with another finger, landing on Farron’s chest. The force was like an arrow, piercing through his chest.
One finger severely injured Farron!
“Trash, kneel down and surrender, and I’ll let you go!”
Scorpio attacked several times and almost crippled Farron.
Immediately, hundreds of people stood up in the northern part of the venue!
The eyes of the hundred regimental commanders of the Northern Army were cold and murderous. The eyes of the hundreds of youths from the Northern Military School were all red.
They were all silent as they stared at Farron!
Farron kept coughing up blood. His military uniform had already turned into a bloody shirt. He held the Northern Army sword and stared at Scorpio with bloodshot eyes. He roared, “Kill!”
Farron had never thought of admitting defeat.
Let alone surrender!
Scorpio had been humiliating Farron from the beginning to the end. His words in public made everyone think that Farron had surrendered!
Since the establishment of the Northern Army, there had only been those who had died in battle, not those who had surrendered!
Therefore, Farron held his sword and attacked Scorpio again.
However, Scorpio raised his hand and released his force, sending Farron flying.
On the high platform, all the elites of the Northern Army saw this.
No one moved!
This was a martial arts competition. When the martial artists of both sides stepped onto the stage, they would have a martial arts competition to determine the winner and the loser, as well as to determine life and death.
Today was only the second day of the Martial Artist Summit.
As the chief examiner, how could Braydon go against the rules?
However, there was one person who had never followed the rules.
That was Little Fool!
