Night Without End
Chapter 62 - 62 41 Defeated Then Became a God

62: Chapter 41: Defeated, Then Became a God 62: Chapter 41: Defeated, Then Became a God Last time at the mansion of the Old Noble, Sick Boy met the five-meter-tall Xie Lingxi first, and after returning, he spoke ambiguously and misled Qin Ming about the encounter, then immediately slipped away himself.

Now he was putting on another act.

Qin Ming took note of it, vowing to give Sick Boy a real reason to be sick next time they met.

Nie Rui shone in Chixia City like a beam piercing through the night mist, one of the two most dazzling figures in the past twenty years, having broken the city’s records for physical attributes after his rebirth.

Now as he opened his mouth to inquire, the teams from the Cao, Mu, and Wei families all showed surprise, and many eyes turned toward Qin Ming.

Instantly, others realized that this must be the person Nie Rui was looking for.

For a moment, Qin Ming also experienced the sensation of being the center of attention, with all the young nobles of Chixia City looking at him with assessing eyes.

Of course, this was entirely thanks to Nie Rui’s mention; without such an outstanding talent of Chixia City bringing him up, nobody would have paid any attention to a youth from some remote area.

Many revealed surprise in their expressions, observing him with scrutinizing eyes; could it be that such a secluded small place could really produce a genius youth?

It seemed unlikely.

However, some noble young ladies were quite active, discussing privately.

“He has a pretty appearance.

With a little more attention to his image, he could enhance his temperament.

His black hair shouldn’t hang loose; if he were to replace his black armor with bright, sparkling armor, I think he would be quite handsome!”

…

Nie Rui smiled warmly, indicating he wanted to have a friendly match with Qin Ming.

“Don’t feel pressured, let’s just have a casual spar.

I believe in the judgement of Master Xu’s sole Disciple.”

Qin Ming now wanted to beat up Sick Boy even more, and at the same time, he realized that this Xu Kong was truly extraordinary, commanding immense respect from the people of Chixia City.

“I am not your equal, though I live far away in a remote village, but I have heard many people mention that Chixia City has brought forth an extraordinary pair of young male and female, dazzling the whole region.”

The young nobles present all nodded, agreeing that what he said was true.

In the lands ruled by Chixia City, the most outstanding young talents of the city were naturally the most formidable geniuses locally.

Nie Rui dismounted from the White Rhinoceros, his silver armor gleaming brilliantly, exuding vibrancy.

The entire man seemed to glow.

With a friendly smile, he said, “You’re too modest.

I have seen You Liangyun.

No worries, let’s just spar casually.”

The others didn’t quite understand the subtext, and Nie Rui didn’t directly spell out that You Liangyun had been defeated by this youth.

At this point, Qin Ming could hardly refuse.

“I have experienced Second Rebirth,” Nie Rui said.

“I will restrain my own strength.

Don’t worry, I definitely won’t overdo it.”

Qin Ming was tempted to use this as an excuse to decline the challenge, but after thinking it over, repeatedly putting it off didn’t seem right, and he eventually nodded.

“Nie Rui, be careful when you make a move,” Cao Long spoke up, worried that he might injure Qin Ming.

“Do you want to change your weapon?” Mu Qing asked.

Everyone on site knew that during Nie Rui’s initial rebirth, the power in his arms had reached a terrifying seven hundred and ninety jin, which was why he could cause such a sensation, known as the pinnacle of the past twenty years.

You Liangyun, of the same age, was very outstanding, able to lift six hundred and fifty jin, but eventually had to settle for third place.

In people’s view, for Qin Ming to go against such an opponent wielding the heavy Long Handle Wujin Hammer in a contest of strength would be utterly unwise.

Qin Ming, agreeing to the principle ‘To follow good advice as easily as flowing water’, put down the Big Hammer in his hand and said, “Apart from the Long Handle Hammer, I am skilled with the spear.

Could someone lend me one?”

Mu Qing looked back at the young men behind him, finding that most of them had long blades.

The few long spears available were of unsatisfactory quality due to their exceedingly light weight.

The other nobles remained silent, and after a brief quiet, someone chuckled, “Use my Purple Gold Spear, a weapon forged a thousand times; this also fulfills one of my wishes, to indirectly spar with Brother Nie.

I’d be honored.”

Qin Ming noticed that everyone valued Nie Rui highly, even turning a simple request for a spear into such a statement.

“Nie Rui, maybe you will lose,” said a girl perched on the back of Black Tiger, her bright eyes and white teeth shining, her black hair fluttering back in the wind, her aura otherworldly and ethereal.

Her name was Shen Jiayun, nearly equal in strength to Nie Rui, and most importantly, she was already noticed by an outsider from Fangwai, set on a path incomparably brilliant.

In the eyes of many young nobles, she had already won at the starting line.

Nie Rui advanced forward, his silver armor shining, his smile radiant, holding a long blade and said, “Please!”

Qin Ming had already taken the Purple Gold Spear in his hands, weighed it, then shook out a string of spear flowers, suddenly setting off a surge of purple light.

“Xiao Qin, be careful and don’t get hurt,” Xu Yueping shouted.

“If you can’t keep up, concede immediately,” Old Man Liu was even more straightforward.

A group of young nobles smiled lightly, confident in Nie Rui’s ability to control the bout precisely, firmly believing this friendly match posed no uncertainty or risk to the youth.

Some people were quietly making hand signals, betting whether Nie Rui would take down the youth in four moves or in just one face-off.

They did not dare to discuss or bet loudly, aligning with the subtler approach that belittling the young hunter openly wasn’t proper, and it would also appear disrespectful to Nie Rui, who had personally entered the fray.

“My guess is, Nie Rui will take him down after the third stance of Blade Technique.”

“I’ll be more conservative: after seven stances of Blade Technique then.

Since Nie Rui himseflt wants to measure up this youth, it indicates the young hunter must possess some skill.”

Clang!

In a flash, everyone’s focus was pulled back to the fierce clash, all eyes watched astounded to find that the two had already exchanged over a dozen moves.

Whoosh, they quickly separated, now standing over twenty meters apart.

The snow on the ground burst into the air, as if a heavy snowfall started anew, and only at that moment did the sound of cracking reach them from the trees, as a large swath of branches fell down.
