Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Thirteen people quickly entered the battle arena after hearing Lin Guchen's words. Tenku didn't expect that one of those people was a girl surnamed Huang sitting next to him.

The girl was wearing a red hanfu covering her body tightly and showing her beautiful curves. She walked gracefully, and her clothes fluttered in the wind.

Tenku was slightly fascinated because the girl was no less elegant than Wang Ruyue. The eyes of the people around him also focused on her, and some of them recognized the girl.

"Isn't she Huang Yuxin?"

"Yes, you're right! She is Huang Yuxin! She is a genius of the Huang family and one of the most beautiful girls in Beijing!"

"I didn't think she would be in this arena with us."

"Unfortunately, we can't enjoy her pretty face because the veil blocks it."

"Huang Yuxin? The most beautiful girl in Beijing? In that case, she is one of Wang Ruyue's rivals." Tenku looked at Huang Yuxin and muttered. But he only glanced at her briefly and took out his smartphone to kill time before getting his turn to fight

The other participants walked to the side of the arena to choose their weapons, and most of them wielded swords, including Huang Yuxin.

After they chose their weapons, the participants gathered in the arena and formed a circle. They were wary of the people around them because all the cultivators in the place were their opponents.

"Have you chosen your weapon yet?" Lin Guchen looked at the participants and asked.

"Yes, Elder Lin!" Huang Yuxin and the twelve people answered in unison.

"Alright. Then, we will begin the first preliminary round in arena F. The battle begins!" Lin Ghucen signalled to start the battle, but neither of them moved from where they stood.

The participants did not dare to act recklessly because they were wary of the people around them. If they attacked the cultivator on the right, the person on the left would charge them. Therefore, they had to act with caution. But among them, some people couldn't stand such a situation.

"Die!" A male cultivator swung his sword and charged at the person to his right. But his opponent easily blocked it.

Clank!

That person's actions trigger the other participants to attack their opponents. The cultivators started fighting with the people around them, and the battle arena turned into chaos.

Tenku watched their fight while playing with his smartphone. He occasionally glanced at the battle arena and refocused on his smartphone to reply to someone's message. Tenku suddenly raised his eyebrows because several people were staring at him maliciously. But he pretended not to notice and kept playing on his smartphone.

The battle grew fiercer as time passed, and the number of participants remaining was only half. Some were eliminated for leaving the arena, and some for losing consciousness.

Of course, Huang Yuxin was one of the remaining participants in the arena. Her swordsmanship looks beautiful, and Tenku can see sparks in her every move. He thought that it had something to do with her practice.

Huang Yuxin easily dodged the attacks from her opponents and counterattacked them. Her hanfu fluttered every time she moved, and Tenku caught a glimpse of the face beneath her veil.

Clank! Clank!

Several cultivators clashed their swords with Huang Yuxin but couldn't get the upper hand. Instead, they were slowly being pushed back by the girl.

Fifteen minutes later, only three people remained in the arena, including Huang Yuxin. She was overwhelmed by the two cultivators due to exhaustion, and little stamina left. Her breathing was heavy, and sweat dripped from her forehead. But Huang Yuxin's condition was still better than her two opponents.

Even so, Tenku knew that Huang Yuxin still hadn't put all her strength into that battle. It was natural to hide a trump card or two for the next round

Not long after, Huang Yuxin defeated another opponent and left her with a man in the battle arena. But it didn't take long for that girl to beat him. The result was in line with Tenku's expectations.

After Huang Yuxin defeated the two participants in the arena, Lin Guchen appeared and announced the results of the battle royal.

"The winner is Huang Yuxin! Please return to your places, as we will immediately proceed to the second battle royal." Guchen smiled and asked Huang Yuxin to return to his seat to rest and recover his strength.

Huang Yuxin nodded and quickly returned to her seat. Unexpectedly, she sat back next to Tenku and not another empty seat.

Although Huang Yuxin was not seriously injured, several pieces of her clothing were torn from the sword and spear attacks. In addition, her face was also a little pale, with sweat dripping down her forehead. She looked almost exhausted from her stamina. If the battle had lasted much longer, Huang Yuxin might have lost or been forced to take out one of her trump cards.

"Alright. We'll be starting the second battle royal now. For the next participant, please go up to the arena." Lin Guchen called the next thirteen cultivators to the arena and the second battle began.

Tenku felt bored when he saw the second battle royal because it was more chaotic and messy than the first. After an hour, a male cultivator defeated the other twelve participants and became the victor. Lin Guchen quickly announced it and proceeded to the third battle royal.

But the battle wasn't much different from the second one, leaving Tenku mostly focused on his smartphone. He could still feel the gazes with malicious intent directed at him, and he guessed they were from his fellow participants in arena F.

While playing with his smartphone, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder from behind. Tenku looked back and found Wang Ruyue coming with Wang Zeming.

"Is your battle over?" Tenku asked and then returned his eyes to his smartphone.

"Aren't you curious about the results?" Wang Ruyue sat in the empty seat to Tenku's left.

"I don't need to ask because I already know the answer after seeing your faces. Would you put on such satisfied expressions if you lost in the preliminaries?" Tenku already knew the outcome of their battle when he saw their smile.

"Ahaha... then, we don't need to explain it to you." Wang Zeming smiled and sat down next to Wang Ruyue.

"Where are Wang Xin and Wang Xiuying? Why aren't they with you?" Tenku looked around and then asked Wang Ruyue when he didn't find the two people with them.

"Wang Xin has also finished his match and won it. He can't come with us because he wants to see his sister fight." Wang Ruyue explained.

"I see. That's good. In this way, three people from the Wang family have already entered the next round." Tenku nodded in response to Wang Ruyue's words.

"By the way, I didn't expect you to get close to one of the most beautiful girls in Beijing after we left you for a while. Were you a playboy back in Japan?" Wang Ruyue whispered with thorny words. She didn't know why her heart felt bitter when she saw Tenku being close to another girl.

"You misunderstood. Me and her sitting next to each other just by chance and nothing more. I didn't even say a word to her. We are both total strangers here." Tenku sighed when he heard Wang Ruyue's accusation.

"is it true?" Wang Ruyue narrowed her eyes and looked at Tenku suspiciously.

"Yes, it is true. Besides, why would I lie to you?" Tenku replies helplessly under her gaze.

"Then switch your seat with me." Wang Ruyue said seriously.

"If you want to sit beside her, isn't the seat to the girl's right empty?" Tenku felt that Wang Ruyue's behavior was a bit strange and troublesome. He was in a comfortable position and lazy to get up from his seat.

"Huh? What are you saying?" Wang Ruyue smiled, but Tenku felt that the girl wasn't smiling.

"Nothing. I'm just doing a soliloquy. Please sit down, Miss Ruyue." Tenku got up from his seat reluctantly and allowed Wang Ruyue to take his place.

"Thank you." Wang Ruyue smiled sweetly and moved to his seat. After that, she turned his eyes to Huang Yuxin.

"Long time no see, Yuxin. You have become much stronger than the last time I saw you." Wang Ruyue greeted Huang Yuxin. She knew Huang Yuxin had become one of the victors in arena F.

"Yeah, it's been a while. But I'm not as strong as you say. Your progress seems to be much faster than mine." Huan Yuxin shook her head and replied in a weak voice.

"You don't need to be so humble. Wasn't the result of our last sparring match a draw?" Wang Ruyue replied.

Tenku raised her eyebrows when he heard their conversation. Then he sat down next to Wang Zeming and asked him.

"Do they know each other?" Tenku whispered to Wang Zeming.

"Hmm... they can't be called friends, but they are more than just acquaintances because they have met several times." Wang Zeming was at a loss as to how to explain the relationship between the two girls.

"Do you know her too?" Tenku added another question.

"I know her too, but not as close as Ruyue because they are both the most beautiful girls in Beijing. She is known as a difficult girl to approach. But it wasn't because she was cold or arrogant. If Ruyue was the gentle and elegant type, then Huang Yuxin was the shy and adorable type. She doesn't talk much when interacting with other people. Even though she was older than Ruyue, she looked childish because of her nature." Wang Zeming explained to Tenku.

"I understand. No wonder she hasn't said a word since she sat down." Tenku nodded and understood why the girl didn't talk to anyone in that place. At first, he thought Huang Yuxin was a proud girl, but he was wrong and felt a bit guilty.

"What did you talk to Zeming about?" Wang Ruyue suddenly asked Tenku.

"Hmm? I was asking about his match." Tenku looked at Wang Ruyue and answered.

"I smell something fishy!" Wang Ruyue couldn't believe Tenku's words because she had faintly heard Wang Zeming mention Huang Yuxin's name. But before she could ask Wang Zeming, she was interrupted by Lin Guchen's announcement of the winner.

"Then, the next thirteen participants, please enter the battle arena. We are about to start the fourth battle royal." Ling Guchen summoned the remaining thirteen participants in arena F.

"Okay, now it's my turn. Please wait here. I'm going to go to the battle arena for a while." Tenku stood up from his seat and walked to the battle arena. His words were like he wanted to go to the convenience store to buy something, making Wang Ruyue and Wang Zeming speechless.
