Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 177

Chapter 177: Jan Jan vs Chiron!
“Place your bets here! Chiron vs Jan Jan. Place your bets here! The first match of the Gathering of the sword clans.”

A man screamed at the top of his voice.

This was going to be the first match of the Gathering of the sword clans. And as one would expect, everyone was in high expectance of it.

The man screaming at the bet sport was not the only one. Whether it was legal or illegal betting joints, many people flood through the bet houses to place their bets. Naturally, the odds for this match were basically disastrously uneven.

Chiron 100 points

Jan Jan 2 points.

This was the format that most bet houses or joints used.

After all, the odds of Chiron winning this match were as miserable as possible.

Naturally, many people, especially those that were not of the Chikitsa clan placed higher bets on Jan Jan winning.

“I bet 300 green beast cores on Jan Jan!”

“HUH!!!” The entire bet house was in shock at this.

The man that had just placed the bet smiled in satisfaction, “This is all my life savings and I’m sure of it today. I’m going to be very rich with this bet.”

“But mister! are you sure about that? I mean that’s a lot of money.” One man that was about to place bets asked him.

The man that had just placed the bets laughed loudly, “Come here my friend. Trust me! I know what I am saying. I have done my due research. That Chiron’s father is an elder of the clan and a brother to the chief. Even though he was born with the inhability to cultivate, they still spread all those rumors about him. Do you know why?”

The other man shook his head.

“It is all a poly for a father to protect his useless son. I have a friend’s son in the same cultivation batch as Chiron. And he said that Chiron fought Cablen and won. My guess is that that match was also planned.”

He held the man by the neck, “So think about it. Why is it that Chiron had to coincidentally fight his own cousin-brother? It all feels too convenient if you ask me. I don’t believe it for even a second.”

The man thought closely about all the rumours surrounding Chiron and then he nodded his head with the man that had just placed his bets.

At the same time, a group of men with black coats covering their heads to their toes walked into the betting house.

“Two blue beast cores on Chiron to win Please!”

The two men that had been talking paused and looked at the men that had just arrived.

These men did not look like they were from the Chikitsa clan or any of the other clans. At least the emblem on their coats had never been seen in these parts.

The man that had bet his life savings wanted to say something. But he just ended up laughing at the men with coats.

In his mind, these were fools with excess cash to spare. As far as he was concerned, these men had basically just gifted out their money.

However, the men did not talk. After the bet was over, they carried the slip and walked out of the betting house.

Many people had naturally rushed to bet on Jan Jan to win.

Regardless of what they had heard about Chiron, they were not satisfied with that.

Then again, anyone would have done the same thing in their shoes.

Jan Jan was big and muscular. He obviously had more cultivation years and experience than Chiron.

While Chiron was only ten years of age with a small frame but an overbuilt body for a child his age.

And so it started.

Chiron stood at one end of the arena, while Jan Jan stood at the other end.

“Contestants ready your swords!” Harden announced.

Jan Jan nonchalantly brought out his sword. In his mind, there was no need to do this. However, he had to do it. It was a rule to only fight with swords during the Gathering of the sword games.

Chiron also removed his big sword that was wrapped with bandages on his back.

The moment he did, many people whispered within the crowd.

“So that is the blade that was made by Ganja before he died. It looks a bit weird and ordinary to me!”

Apart from the irregular sharpness and look of Chiron’s sword, many people thought that there was nothing special about it.

After all, it looked like a poor attempt at making a sword and more of something a child made than something a blacksmith made.

However, Chiron suddenly stabbed his sword into the ground. As he did, he adjusted his shoulders and cracked his fingers.

Jan Jan saw this and then he frowned. In his mind, he thought that Chiron was trying to insult him by dropping his weapon.

But that was not it. It had really been a while since Chiron used Devil’s touch. He was only adjusting his hands for a better feel and control of the weapon.

“Fight!”

Elder Harden suddenly gave the order.

*Boom*

Jan Jan’s spiritual energy blew against the ground as it propelled him like a canon ball from the ground into the air.

It was fast, It was efficient and it was incredible to look at.

This was the power of a cultivator at the early stage of the stone realm.

From his method of attacking alone, many experts in the crowd nodded their heads.

However, Nora and even Carla were worried about this.

Jan Jan put sufficient spiritual energy into his sword as his blade descended on Chiron’s head like the unavoidable drops of rain from the sky.

There were no two ways about it.

Jan Jan’s spiritual energy had covered all corners. He did not even allow an escape route for Chiron.

He was going to crush Chiron for what he did to him.

Such embarrassment must not go unpunished.

He did not even use any technique. Just plain destructive force.

However, the strangest thing happened. Chiron looked at Jan Jan, and Jan Jan saw a slight smile at the corner of his lips….
