Battling Records of the Chosen One Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Being Abused Terribly

After the meal, taking a deep breath in, Lin Xun stood in the yard and turned to Shia Zhi, “Let’s get started.”
Fighting with only physical strength was one of the most direct and effective ways to refine one’s body and spirit.
Lin Xun would like to have a try to see whether the little girl’s method was helpful.
Shia Zhi got up and came to Lin Xun unhurriedly. Standing three or four meters away, she rolled up her sleeves leisurely, revealing a part of arms as white as lotus root.
Raising her head and looking at Lin Xun with clear onyx-like eyes, she required, “Attack me now”.
Lin Xun was a bit surprised and hesitant. Honestly, to attack such a beautiful girl at the age of five or six with a height only to his chest was awkward.
Although he knew Shia Zhi’s fighting capability was unimaginably strong, he still felt uncomfortable to fight with her.
However, looking at Shia Zhi’s serious expression, Lin Xun gritted his teeth and enforced TRRE (tiger roar to repulse the enemy) through his hands.
Hu***
The boxing power released by physical strength vibrated the air, presenting a feeling of a fierce and fast moving tiger, vigorously and energetically.
It was not hard to tell Lin Xun’s master of Marching Boxing already reached the level of Accuracy, at which he could exert the power of this boxing’s quintessence.
However, Shia Zhi didn’t move at all. She simply raised her hands, then buckled his wrist tightly like a hawkbill with her white and tender fingers.
Lin Xun was shocked. But before he could disengage himself, Shia Zhi shook her arm lightly.
Boom! Lin Xun began to tremble terribly like a piece of cloth and then fell onto the ground heavily. All bones seemed like to fall apart, making him gasp with pain.
Thinking little of the pain on the body, Lin Xun was struck dumb in the heart. He was totally suppressed before giving any respond to the attack which was as fast as a lightning.
Lin Xun could tell that Shia Zhi didn’t use spiritual energy; in other words, she defeated him with one shake of wrist!
He picked himself up and looked at Shia Zhi embarrassedly. There was no neglect in his eyes anymore, but seriousness and earnest.
Meanwhile, Shia Zhi frowned her fine eyebrows and stated, “You’re so terrible at mastering your body, and even a wild bristle boar is better than you.”
Lin Xun’s face turned black. A little girl of five or six years old said he was inferior to a boar?! What a shame.
Bang***
Exhaling like a thunder and curling his fingers to boxing, Lin Xun leaped out to attack her with RTSM (ridge to suppress the moon).
Both offensive and defensive, there was no chance that Shia Zhi could defeat him again.
However, being dazzled, Lin Xun was caught in the wrist again and then was smashed on the ground like a falling stone with a large boom. A bloody nose and a swollen face loomed among cloud of flying dusts.
It was too embarrassing.
Although he was mature, for a 13-year-old boy who was outstanding and hot-blooded, it was hard to put up with such disgrace.
“Come again.”
Lin Xun could think no more and rushed out with a large yell.
At this time, he changed the position by raising his arms. With fists tightened like a longbow, he exerted ICRA (iron-chain to resist attack).
Shia Zhi shouldn’t be able to even touch his wrists in this way.
It worked. However, Shia Zhi frowned and then trotted toward him like a creeping dragon and snake. She broke Lin Xun’s defense and kicked his lap with her forceful feet tips easily.
Lin Xun felt his right leg numb immediately. As if he lost consciousness, he staggered and nearly fell down.
Meanwhile, his wrist was buckled by Shia Zhi who slightly shook her arm later again.
Like what happened before, Lin Xun fell down to the earth face down, quivering the ground and causing dusts fly.
With disheveled hairs, a bleeding nose and a swollen face, he struggled to stand up, covered with dust all over the body, like a drowned mouse.
Staring at Shia Zhi fixedly, there were mixed feelings in Lin Xun’s heart, shock, surprise, confusion, anger, shame, and so on and so forth.
However, Shia Zhi seemed unaware of that. She frowned and looked at Lin Xun with doubt in her peaceful and beautiful face, “Lin Xun, you’re really inferior to a wild bristle boar. Are you more foolish than it?”
Boom***
Hearing this, Lin Xun felt all his blood and Qi rushing to the head – an unspeakable feeling of shame and resent was burning like fire all over his body.
How could she say I was inferior to a boar?
How could she say I was more foolish than a boar?
Lin Xun was nearly foaming with rage. With eyes popped, he rushed to Shia Zhi with a yell again.
Bang***
Shia Zhi curled her lips and raised her hands with flagging interest. With only one move, Lin Xun fell down as expected.
“Come again.”
As tough as a cockroach, Lin Xun rushed again after getting up.
The strong feeling of shame lit his fighting will, making him forget everything else and cast various thoughts and constrains off.
He was just an emulative young boy at that moment.
Now he looked more like a normal 13-year-old boy, infuriated and unreconciled, with temperamental characters.
Bang***
He was defeated again.
Come again.
Bang***
Come again.
Bang***
This resounded around Lin Xun’s yard at the east of the village for the whole afternoon. The sound was so terrifying that a group of skylarks resting on the weeping willow were frightened away.
The village head Shiao Tianren heard that and then walked into Lin’s yard to see what happened. Then he saw Lin Xun was lifted by Shia Zhi like a sack and then thrown to the ground mercilessly.
Shiao Tianren was stunned. Was it just an illusion? He rubbed his eyes hard.
However, he ensured it was not later. That outstanding young boy who saved Feiyun Village and was adored by all was now beaten by a five or six-year-old little girl indefensibly and miserably.
Shiao Tianren was in a trance. It was too crazy. How could this happen? It was really over his head.
He intended to discuss the matter of digging Feiyun Fire Copper with Lin Xun, however, he left resolutely after seeing this.
He needed to take some time to calm down. It was really shocking to think of what he just saw.
Not until the sun went down, did the yard regain its peace.
Gritting his teeth and staggering with a rickety body full of wounds, Lin Xun took off the ragged and dirty clothes and jumped into the ready vat.
There were various spiritual materials in the vat, which could repair and strengthen the body remarkably.
Hu***
Lin Xun took out a foul breath and felt comfortable when the warm medicine soup infused his scarred body gently.
However, when he saw Shia Zhi nearby, his heart was twisted and a touch of shame and unwillingness flashed by on his face.
Lin Xun had forgotten how many times he was subdued this afternoon, but he could tell each time his bones were nearly shattered.
He was numb and exhausted now. The pain in every inch of his skin and bones overburdened him.
He could endure the pain with his strong spirit; however, the fact that he was defeated by the same move again and again was unacceptable.
It made Lin Xun begin to wonder whether he was really more stupid than a wild bristle boar.
Shaking fiercely, he would never admit he was inferior to a beast.
“I’m going to sleep now.”
Shia Zhi got up and went directly to her room after saying it, and then added suddenly, “Oh, don’t forget to cook. I will be really hungry when waking up.”
Lin Xun was in a trance and then really wanted to shout out, “How could you require me to cook in this condition? Can’t you have pity on me?” But he didn’t.
There was a bitter smile on his face. Seeming to accept his fate, Lin Xun sighed and raised his head in the vat, looking at the dark sky dedicatedly. All emotions in his eyes disappeared, leaving behind the clearness and deep thought like usual.
He was thinking over the fight this afternoon. Every detail was considered and soon he was lost in his mind.
Shia Zhi’s fighting skill was easy. With one grasp and one shake, he was defeated.
The grasp was unbreakable as an iron loop.
The shake was nimble as a sifter.
However, to think again, one would learn a lot from it. For example, the grasp was as swift as lightning, and as precise as a goshawk which would wait to catch rabbits with one attack.
It tested the eyesight and speed. It was not abstruse – if practicing hard, anyone would achieve that.
What shocked Lin Xun was the power in the shake. Like sifting shack, it concussed his whole body like strong tidewater, nearly scattering his bones.
It was so horrible.
How could Shia Zhi do it with only physical strength?
Lin Xun was lost in his meditation.
The efficacy of the medicines in the vat was absorbed by Lin Xun, which swept away all the numbness and tiredness. Without hesitation, he changed his clothes and began to prepare dinner.
There was something special in the fight with Shia Zhi. Although Lin Xun was defeated badly, the wounds were all superficial, not that serious as they looked like.
Lin Xun began to wonder Shia Zhi must have pulled her punches, while it was not sure how much power she drew on.
When dinner was ready and served on the table, Shia Zhi showed up.
Smiling, Lin Xun filled the bowl for her and blurted out, “I think I have gotten it.”
Shia Zhi nodded and took out a piece of meat thick as arm to eat. Then she said, “You’re too stupid if you can’t figure out such a simple thing.”
Lin Xun took a deep breath in and decided to neglect the unmeant offense in her words. Then he uttered earnestly, “We will continue tomorrow.”
Every word was spoken out clearly, but Shia Zhi felt there was hidden bitterness in his voice, so she raised her head and mused for a while, then said, “Diligence makes up for lack of natural talent and a slow sparrow should make an early start. I just learnt these new sentences and I think they fit you well now.”
Lin Xun’s face turned black immediately. Was she addictive to abusing me?
Who was in lack of natural talent?
And who was a slow sparrow?
Did she see him like this always?
“Just eat your dinner.”
Lin Xun stared at Shia Zhi gritting his teeth and then blew off all feelings by eating, stopping the unpleasant conversion.
This night was peaceful like any other night, however, when they recalled the memories in the future, they would understand the preciousness.
