Rebirth: City Sovereign

Rick smiled sharply. His feet bent like springs and then sprang up, the tiny body bouncing like a pinball into the air.    

Like this, he flew back and forth in the air at a speed that the naked eye could not catch, and Rick dodged the Flying Sword that were flying out of Ye Lee's hands one after another.    

"He's simply a loach!"    

Ye Lee continuously gestured in the air with his right hand, commanding the Flying Sword to suddenly shoot towards Rick's body.    

"Trash from the China, is that all you have?"    

Rick maintained his high speed circulation and taunted Ye Lee nonstop. When he was dodging the attacks of the Flying Sword, he shot out a few sharp thorns from his short wrist, aiming at the vital parts of Ye Lee's body.    

Ye Lee snorted, he waved his left hand and a circular mirror flew out from his waist and landed on his chest.    

"Change!"    

Accompanied by a loud shout, Ye Lee channeled his Fa Li into the circular mirror, and the round mirror with golden borders instantly expanded to a radius of a meter, blocking Ye Lee's entire person behind the circular mirror.    

Clang! Clang! Clang!    

Countless sharp thorns collided against the seemingly weak lens, destroying it in the slightest.    

"Hahaha, this kind of bumpkin thing is exactly what a dog with China likes to use!"    

Rick's figure flashed, and his body bounced up into the air once again, stepping on air. He landed right above Ye Lee, and his entire body spun in the air, like a tire that was about to hit the huge circular lens blocking in front of Ye Lee.    

Dong!    

Accompanied by an explosive sound, the circular mirror exploded into countless lenses.    

Ye Lee escaped from Rick's attack, and his entire body was pushed back several tens of meters, all the way until the edge of the competition grounds where he finally managed to stand firm on his feet.    

"Cough."    

Injured by the astonishing vibration, Ye Lee coughed lightly as a trace of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.    

Rick, who was still floating in the air, saw Ye Lee coughing blood, bared his fangs, and laughed loudly.    

"Haha, see blood."    

Using the back of his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ye Lee raised his head to look at Rick who was floating in the air, and revealed a cold smile.    

"Heh."    

Crack!    

In the next second, a narrow cut suddenly appeared on Rick's pocket-sized body!    

Shocked, Rick used his hand to cover the blue blood that spurted out from the wound. He lowered his head to look at the wound on his waist and muttered to himself.    

"When did you hurt me?"    

Facing the terrified Rick, Ye Lee opened his mouth wide, mimicking Rick's tone of voice as he ridiculed him.    

"Haha, see blood."    

"Hua Gou, you sure are brave!"    

Rick's face sank. He raised his hand and was about to shoot out a spike.    

Facing Rick's attack, Ye Lee did not dodge or dodge, but only smiled and said with confidence.    

"You are very fast, the twenty Flying Sword will not be able to catch you."    

"What about the two thousand?"    

In the next second, Ye Lee's face darkened, a gold light flashed in his eyes, and he formed a seal and shouted.    

"Thousand Sword Formation!"    

Following that, the twenty floating Flying Sword around him started to tremble.    

Accompanying the sword's body shaking, nine transparent Flying Sword s separated from the bodies of the physical swords!    

An entire two thousand Flying Sword s formed a huge wall behind Ye Lee, looking fake and real. The sword blade pointed at Rick who was so shocked that he couldn't even speak because of the terrifying scene.    

"Wow, what a sight!"    

Miao Ya'er and Lu Qingshan saw it and also slightly opened their eyes. They had never seen Ye Lee use a spell of this level before.    

Even Ye Kai, when he saw this Sword Formation, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Not bad, you really trained hard."    

Huang Yuanzhi was even more direct, he looked at Ye Lee who was standing in front of the wall made of Flying Sword, his eyes filled with pleasant surprise.    

"To be able to use such a magnificent Sword Formation at such a young age, it is truly magnificent!"    

Ye Lee crossed his hands over his chest, raised his head, and arrogantly looked at Rick, and said.    

"Right now, there's still time to apologize and admit defeat."    

There was no longer any trace of a smile on Rick's mutated face. All the arrogance, disdain, and other emotions disappeared, and were replaced with a cold killing intent.    

"The Flying Sword's sacred art that has been lost for many years in the east? "I never thought that there would be such a genius in China, I can't let him live!"    

"Go!"    

However, before he could take action, Ye Lee had already raised his hand, commanding the two thousand Flying Sword to shoot towards Rick's body from all directions.    

What would it feel like if two thousand Flying Sword attacked a single target at the same time?    

Rick only felt that he was in the center of the storm. No matter how nimbly he twisted his body, raindrops named Flying Sword would continuously rain down on every corner of his body.    

In the eyes of the people outside, the two thousand Flying Sword had indeed surrounded Rick in the middle, forming a tornado.    

His four limbs, face, chest, and back were all exposed to the dense Sword Formation s that were unable to find a way to break through.    

Ah ah ah ah!    

Coughing out thick blue blood from his mouth, Rick let out a painful wail.    

"How much longer?"    

The leader of the British Team, Jin, asked with a dark expression.    

"Twenty-five seconds."    

The girl beside him who had been maintaining her seal posture replied.    

"Hurry up, Rick can't hold on any longer."    

Swish, swish, swish!    

The storm formed by the Sword Formation lasted for a full twenty odd seconds. Ye Lee retracted his hand and dispersed the Sword Formation.    

"Ugh …"    

The tornado disappeared, and Rick, who was already covered in wounds, coughed out blood as he slowly fell to the ground while rolling his eyes.    

Ye Lee still held back. Although the Sword Formation was extremely large, he had never attacked Rick's vital parts. After all, to win a victory, it did not require him to kill anyone, it only required him to lose the ability to move.    

Looking at Rick who was vomiting blood on the ground, Ye Lee walked to his side and looked down at him, and said.    

"Surrender, you are not my match."    

Then, the two thousand Flying Sword gradually gathered in the air, forming a giant golden sword that was ten meters long and several meters wide.    

Rick looked at the tip of the huge sword pointing at him slowly, his face pale.    

Ye Lee's intention was very obvious. If you don't surrender, I will use this greatsword to pierce you into a sieve.    

In a place where there was not even a trace of kindness to speak of, Ye Lee's methods could already be said to be extremely kind.    

Rick looked at Ye Lee in a daze, paused for two seconds and said slowly.    

"Why didn't you kill me?"    

"The purpose of National War of Martial Arts is not to take a person's life, but to pursue the pinnacle of martial arts."    

"You're really kind."    

"Surrender, you won't have a chance."    

Ye Lee looked at Rick who was lying on the ground and said coldly.    

Hahahahaha!    

Rick suddenly opened his mouth and let out a sharp laugh that everyone present could hear.    

The people from Chinese Team all revealed expressions of displeasure and confusion. Ye Lee did not know what to do as he looked at the laughing Rick.    

Only Ye Kai opened his mouth and shouted.    

"Ye Lee, do it!"    

"He's stalling for time!"    

Before Ye Lee could react, the Dharma Seal in the woman's hand suddenly released an azure light, and swallowed the entire stage!    

Covered in the blue, Ye Lee found it hard to breathe. Not only that, the mana had also become viscous and uncontrollable.    

It took a whole three seconds for Ye Lee to understand what had happened.    

He had been submerged in the sea water!    

In the eyes of the people outside, the scene looked even more horrifying.    

On the dry plains, a cube formed from seawater appeared out of thin air and covered the entire competition area. It was like a transparent water tank that enveloped the two contestants.    

"A spell that can change the environment?"    

Seeing the sudden change, Zhang Fann asked in shock.    

Ye Lee finally understood what Ye Kai meant just now.    

Why did Rick ask himself not to stop?    

It wasn't because he was feeling guilty or puzzled about his actions, but just because the spell was incomplete. Rick had purposely chatted with him to buy time.    

"How despicable!"    

Ye Lee frowned, looking at Rick who was looking at him with a smile.    

Compared to Ye Lee who was hindered in his movements, Rick's expression was extremely relaxed. The color of the blue scales on his body had gradually become a deep black, and the wounds that were inflicted by Ye Lee's Flying Sword had all healed as well. There was not even a single wound left.    

"Despicable? "Hahahaha."    

"Brat, your talent is pretty good, but why are you so stupid?"    

In the next second, Rick's body slashed the tide and rushed towards Ye Lee.    

Ye Lee was startled. He turned his wrist, activated the gigantic sword to block in front of him, but the tide seemed to have the effect of suppressing his own mana. Ye Lee understood in his heart, that seemingly invincible gigantic golden sword had become extremely weak without the support of his mana.    

Boom! *    

A sunken explosion sounded in the water as the golden greatsword was pierced through by Rick's claws, shattering it into countless of pieces. The greatsword shattered into pieces, and Rick didn't even stop for a second as he used his claws to stab towards Ye Lee's chest.    

Ye Lee reflexively raised his right hand to protect his chest. It was a reflexive reaction of Ye Lee's to protect himself, but how could the sharp claws, which could even easily break through the gigantic sword, not his physical body?    

Even in the thick and viscous seawater, Ye Lee could clearly feel that the sharp claws had easily crushed his arm and pierced through his chest.    

Pfft.    

With his entire chest pierced, Ye Lee spat out a mouthful of blood. Rick maintained the position of piercing Ye Lee's chest, attaching his sharp mouth to Ye Lee's ear, and said with a voice that only Ye Lee could hear.    

"Unfortunately, from the very beginning, you should have killed me without mercy."    

"Your uninteresting naivety and your foolishness that did not account for the fact that I would be stalling for time are the reasons for your failure."    

After saying that, Rick suddenly pulled out the sharp claw that was resting on Ye Lee's chest. Ye Lee let out a muffled moan, and his chest spurted out countless of blood, which dissipated into the water, turning into a blackish-red color.
