Chapter 12

....

Devin was frustrated.

"You're so treacherous. You were preserving your strength all this while and only released it at the last stage. You made me happy for no reason!"

Arius sniggered and said, "Who was the one who was so confident at the start?

"Also, I wanted to save some of your ego, so I let you be in the lead for a while before catching up at the end."

"Hmph~ Why should I believe you? You bad old man, you're so evil." Devin snorted.

(〒〈〒)

Why did I become a bad old man?

"Fine. Do you dare to admit your loss? If you do, I won't ask you to fulfill your bet with me." Arius was speechless.

"Who says that I can't admit my defeat. All I have to do is sing the song 'Beggin', right? What's there to be afraid of?" Devin straightened his neck.

"Go ahead and sing, then! The flowers are drooping from waiting." Arius glanced at him from the corner of his eyes.

Arius instantly looked as though he had eaten a fly. The expression on his fat face kept changing.

He couldn't put down his ego and sing the song, but on the other hand, he didn't want other people to think that he couldn't accept losing either.

His entire expression could be described in one word—dilemma!

In the end, he admitted defeat while looking like a deflated balloon. He started singing with the voice of a mosquito.

"I can't hear you!" Arius placed his hand beside his ear and pretended that he couldn't hear properly.

Devin was furious. After taking a long, deep breath, he increased his volume.

"Put your lovin' handout, baby…"

"Hahaha!"

The people around them burst out laughing. This fatty was tone deaf!

But, they felt sorry for him too.

He had to sing 'Beggin' in front of so many people. This must be black history in his life.

Arius was really evil. He actually pranked someone like this.

Arius couldn't help but laugh too. He waved his hand and said, "Fine, fine, stop singing. Your voice can frighten little children to cry their mothers!"

Devin replied, "No! I still need to sing ten more songs!"

This time, it was Arius's turn to feel speechless.

This fatty was a little cunning!

"Put your lovin' handout, baby…" Devin got even more motivated when he saw Arius's frustrated look.

"Stop singing!"

Arius ran away as his life depended on it. Damn it, his voice was too terrifying!

The fatty was fun to play with, but he was too cunning.

Too much may not always be good. Since he was a good person to pastime with, he would play with him slowly in the future.

The fatty looked around the same age as him, yet he was already an intermediate-stage martial disciple. This meant that he had some talent.

He might become a martial warrior in the future.

He was a fat sheep full of potential. Arius could milk this fatty as his long-term sparring buddy!

The students who gathered around ran away in fright. They hid far away and discussed with one another for some time. While they marveled at the young men's abilities, their competitiveness was ignited too. All of them started practicing even harder.

As a result, there were already many attribute bubbles littering the second floor, as if it was raining here.

Arius walked over and picked all of them up like a Good Samaritan. He also greeted the other students.

Speed*6

Strength*7

Basic Fist Skill*3

Strength*5

Basic Blade Skill*6

…

After another round of upgrading his attributes, he stopped in front of a student practicing his fist skill, observing the young man for a long time.

When the student finished his session, he stopped to take a rest.

Arius took the chance and walked forward, "Senior Brother, shall we have a friendly sparring match?"

The young man looked a little older than Arius and seemed to be slightly above 20.

He was stunned for a moment when he heard Arius's request. He replied, "You're Arius, right? I am Jason.

"I saw you competing with Arius just now and am a little interested in you. Since you brought it up yourself, let's have a sparring match."

"Senior Brother Jason, please!"

The two of them stood in an empty area and distanced themselves. Arius raised his hand to ask Jason to start.

"I will not be polite then."

Jason clenched his fist and stomped his leg, darting towards Arius first.

Bang, bang, bang…

The duo got right down to it. Arius didn't use any other battle techniques, only using his footwork and fist skills to fight with Arius.

As their fists went back and forth, the fight looked violent and fierce. If they got hit, their punches would directly land on their muscles.

Jason was slightly surprised. He was a muscular man. One look and you could tell that he was a very built guy.

However, Arius was wearing loose sportswear, so the muscles on his body weren't prominent. From his appearance, he just looked like an ordinary youth.

But when he started fighting for real, he was full of explosive power.

It didn't feel compatible at all!

Also, Arius's ability astounded him too. A moment ago, he thought that Arius was already quick with his footwork. Now, he felt that he needed to retract his judgment.

Arius's fist skill wasn't any weaker than him.

This fellow seems to be a genius! Arius thought to himself.

They were like a Roland for an Oliver, evenly matched. They fought back and forth, and for a moment, no one won or lost.

"Jason's Basic Fist Skill has reached the half completion stage. Yet, Arius isn't at a disadvantage after fighting for so long."

The students standing far away didn't have high hopes for Arius initially. Hence, they didn't take much notice when he challenged Jason. They thought that it would end within a few rounds.

But, the reality was unexpected. The two of them fought for a long while, without any results.

"Could it be that Jason didn't try his best?" Someone asked puzzled.

"Are you stupid? Look at Jason. Does he look like he's not trying his best?" Another said speechless.

…

"Hey, let's stop here, cause I'm not fighting anymore!"

Jason quickly waved his hands after the two of them collided and retreated a few steps.

"Why don't you want to fight anymore?" Arius asked as he was unwilling to stop.

"Your fist skill is on par with me. There won't be any outcomes if we continue fighting. Instead, we might lose too much energy, affecting our training for the entire day," said Jason.

"Also, if you didn't compete with Devin, I would have lost already."

"Alright, let's not go further than necessary. We will have more chances to spar in the future," replied Arius.

"Okay. I learned many things after fighting with you." Jason nodded.

Arius went to the side to rest and restore his stamina. At the same time, he counted the gains from his sparring match.

Basic Fist Skill*23

Strength*45

As expected, his guess was correct. Fighting with 'Opponents' would make them drop attributes. The harder they fought, the more attributes they dropped, especially attributes like Basic Fist Skill. They would never drop so much when they were practicing.

"So this is the correct way to use my bug!"

While strolling around the training room, Arius slowly regained his stamina. At the same time, he also picked up the attributes from the other students.

Half an hour later, most of his stamina was restored.

He went to the weapons room to pick a sword. Then, he came in front of a student practicing sword skills and said, "Senior Brother, are you free to test my sword skills?"

"Okay!" The other party was decisive and nodded in agreement.

More and more students arrived at the training arena. However, only those who came earlier knew that two sparring matches had happened before this.

"That Arius is having a sparring match with another person again. This time, he's using his sword skill!"

A student that just came felt puzzled. "What's the matter? This student looks unfamiliar. Is he new?"

Another student started explaining to him.

On the other side, Arius and the other young man had already started fighting. Their long swords collided, letting out sparks and metallic clangs.

A sword duel was naturally more dangerous, but both parties knew their limits well. They wouldn't intentionally hurt the other party.

When the duel ended, Arius gained many attributes as expected. He rested at the side.

Basic Sword Skill*26

Strength*30

…

An hour later, Arius found a student practicing blade skill and cupped his fists at the young man. "Senior Brother, my blade is extremely thirsty now. Let's have a sparring match."

"Alright, my blade couldn't keep itself down anymore too!"

The two of them looked exceptionally serious. They were sparks in their eyes as they looked at each other~

…

The other students were already numb.

Devin was one of them. He suddenly felt pity for the student Arius found when he looked at him.

This Arius was crazy about sparring matches. He knew all the battle techniques, and the result was always a draw…

He must be a monster!
