Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life 184 Red Festival - Part 2

Then, suddenly Kang Seo-Yeon turned around. Her gaze focused at a spot in the spectator's seat. Then she sent a flying kiss in that direction.

"Huahahaha… Seo-Yeon sent a kiss to me!"

"Idiot! That kiss was directed to me, not you!"

"Stupid! Of course, Seo-Yeon sent the kiss to this young master!"

The young men seated around Heero turned hysterical and quarreled amongst themselves. They were fighting for the air kiss.

"Oh My… That girl is terrifying…" Heero muttered in a low voice. Despite the noise of the hysterical young men around them, Han Ying, Hong Yu, even Miao Miao, and Myung-Hee heard him.

He remarked Kang Seo-Yeon like that because her little action caused hysteria in the masses.

Two young married women and the two little girls simultaneously looked at him.

Heero noticed the peculiar expression on them and asked bewilderedly, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"Sister Seo-Yeon delivered the kiss for you, Teacher Xing!" Myung-Hee blurted as she was sure with her conjecture as she continued with a mutter, "I am pretty sure…"

Heero was stumped at Myung Hee's words. He immediately looked at his two wives and blurted out, "Don't tell me you also thought the same?"

Han Ying and Hong Yu nodded, "I am sure about that. She was the one who booked the seat, so I am pretty sure the kiss…" Han Ying did not finish her words.

Kang Seo-Yeon certainly knew their seats. So she was pretty sure the kiss was for her husband.

"Mnn… Later, don't treat her coldly! She's a good girl!" Hong Yu whispered to Heero's ears, causing Heero's lips twitched.

"Alright, let's not talk about that! Let's watch the next match…" Heero tried to change the topic.

"But she was doing good. At least her archery is superb!" He tried hard to change the topic by praising the girl.

However, he only got an even more intense gaze from the two little girls while Hong Yu smiled with a face "I know it~".

Meanwhile, on the stage, a medical team entered the stage. They were performing the first aid for Darrius who got an arrow on his thigh.

"Stop it, Lass! Stop creating ruckus and go down!" Long Bin was left speechless by Kang Seo-Yeon's action and told her to go down already while shaking her head.

"Okay, Grandpa Long!" Kang Seo-Yeon smiled sweetly and went off the stage.

As the girl went back to the waiting room, the boisterous arena calmed a little bit as the match proceeded to the second match.

At the 7th match, a big name appeared.

[Musashi Naizen (No.1) vs Guo Pao (No.245)]

To the spectators' surprise, Guo Pao immediately ran off the stage as soon as his name appeared next Musashi Naizen. Without even feeling ashamed, he raised his hand and admitted defeat even before Musashi Naizen appeared.

The spectators were disappointed as they failed to watch the Emperor Class Hero - Rank 7 in action. However, none of the spectators disparaged Guo Pao for his action.

His opponent was the number one seed while his number was far behind, indicating he was far weaker than Musashi Naizen.

Everyone already knew the result even if Guo Pao did not admit defeat. With the disappointment of failing to watch Musashi Naizen, another big name appeared in the next match.

[Wei Tian (No.2) vs Shiran Mukhan (No.157)]

Wei Tian was the newly promoted Legendary Class Ranker. His seed told off the people he was the strongest participant after Musashi Naizen.

As for his opponent, he was a Gold Class Hero - Rank 78 and he was a local hero from Star City, Shiran Mukhan.

Wei Tian walked out to the arena and the spectators gasped in surprise by Wei Tian's outfit. He was wearing a white shirt and a black hoodie with short jeans.

He was a typical teenager who was going to hang out with his friend. On top of it, Wei Tian did not wear protective gear.

Wei Tian's outfit caused Long Bin's forehead to crumple. He clearly disliked the young man in front of him and muttered, "As expected of Ranker…"

Long Bin did not bother to remind Wei Tian to wear protective gear. It was a useless action, so he did not bother with it.

Wei Tian smirked as he heard Long Bin's remark.

Shiran Mukhan climbed up the stage with two blunt machetes. It was a machete for a sparring purpose provided by the committee.

As soon as he saw his opponent, Shiran Mukhan furrowed his brows. It was clear he was being looked down by his opponent, but he said nothing as he realized his opponent had a ground to look down at him.

'Tsk, what rotten luck! First fight and I have to face a Legendary Class Ranker. Whatever, this will be a new experience for me…'

Shiran Mukhan tried to think positively about this match. Even though he knew what would await him, he took this chance to gain more experience. Only in Fighter Anteriority, he would have a chance sparring against such a figure.

Shiran Mukhan raised his machetes, then Wei Tian's arrogance voice mixed with a surprise resounded, "What? Are you trying to challenge me? For real?"

"Do you know who I am? I am Wei Tian, Legendary Class Ranker! You should make a wise decision just like Naizen's opponent, admit your defeat! Don't waste my time, Weakling!"

The words broadcasted to the whole arena and everyone heard that. The buzzing arena immediately silenced by those words while Shiran Mukhan's face turned red from the humiliation.

Long Bin merely shook his head and looked toward Shiran Mukhan. His gaze was asking the guy whether he wanted to continue the fight or admit defeat.

Even though he disagreed with Wei Tian's action, the difference was there, the gap between the two just too big.

"No! I want to continue the match!" Despite the humiliation, Shiran Mukhan endured it, and his fighting spirit was blazed.

As Wei Tian heard the answer, a vicious glint flashed on his eyes. His carefree attitude was gone and replaced with an expressionless face.

"Good!" Long Bin nodded and slammed his staff to the ground.

Bam! "Start!"

Wei Tian wasted no time as he ran toward Shiran Mukhan. His speed was not too fast or slow. But it was slow considering Wei Tian as Legendary Class Ranker.

Soon, the distance between Wei Tian and Shiran Mukhan shortened to only five meters. Just as everyone thought both would clash, an astonishing scene unfolded.

No… It was not astonishing, it was strange as Shiran Mukhan was rooted on the spot. Not making any move despite his opponent was right before him.

Shiran Mukhan strangely stood on the spot, letting Wei Tian grab his neck.

Wei Tian raised Shiran Mukhan to the air. The latter struggled but failed to free himself from the strong grip.

With just one glance, the winner had been decided. Long Bin immediately announced the result, "Wei Tian won!"

However, Wei Tian did not release his grip from Shiran Mukhan's neck. He was intending to kill Shiran Mukhan.

"Release your hand! Now!" Long Bin instantly knew that Wei Tian wanted to kill Shiran Mukhan. He shouted, but Wei Tian ignored his warning.

"I say… Release him!" Old Man Long Bin appeared next to both participants and his steel staff descended to Wei Tian's arm.

Wei Tian immediately pulled his hand back, but he kicked his right foot toward the falling Shiran Mukhan.

But it was to no avail as his kick landed at the steel staff.

"So you are testing my patience!" Long Bin's old voice resounded. Right after he blocked the kick, the steel staff swept toward Wei Tian's neck.

Wei Tian was surprised, but his reaction was pretty fast. He ducked his head, avoiding the steel staff. Just as he wanted to charge at the old man, he sensed the steel staff descended toward him, aiming his head.

"Urghh!" Wei Tian groaned in frustration, not expecting Old Man's attack was this fast. He immediately rolled his body to the right.

Boom!

The booming sound rang from his back. Wei Tian immediately stood up, when he raised his head, he was shocked to see the steel staff was right before his face.

Just as he thought the steel would hit his heat, the steel staff changed direction, going down and landed right between his feet.

Boom!

The steel staff stood straight right before him and Wei Tian rooted on the spot.

"This is the first warning for you! Once again you ignore my words, that staff will crush your head for real!"

"Woaaaaa!"

The whole arena exclaimed in surprise.

Wei Tian gritted his teeth and turned around. He did not expect the gap between him and Long Bin was this big. He was powerless before a new The Elder's member.

As Wei Tian climbed off the stage, a replay displayed on the big screen. A replay between Wei Tian and Shiran Mukhan.

When the distance between the two, the screen showed the spectators the brave Shiran Mukhan's hand as fear and terror etched on his expression.

It was weird as the spectators saw Wei Tian did nothing at all. Why did Shiran Mukhan suddenly frightened?

No one could answer that even Heero was a bit confused as well. The 8th match became a mystery to the spectators.

In the waiting room, Hero Dome

"Huhu… There's an interesting guy…" Musashi Hirata remarked as he watched the replay, but then he focused his gaze back on his smartwatch again afterward.

"What are you doing?" Sun Zhou Yi who sat next to him asked curiously.

"Ah, I am looking at the list of who must be crushed later if I meet them in the match!" Hirata answered nonchalantly.

Sun Zhou Yi got closer to see the list and asked again, "Why do you want to crush them? Do you have a grudge?"

The list was not that long but Sun Zhou Yi found a few famous names on the list.

"No! But these guys have offended Master before, but Master was benevolent and left them unpunished. I want to teach these guys that they have offended the wrong person!"

Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon's lips twitched upon hearing the reason.

"Oy! Your name appears!" Sun Zhou Yi nudged Hirata as he looked at the screen.

Hirata looked up and sure enough, it was his turn to fight. His eyes moved to his opponent's name.

[Arun Seth (No.30) vs Musashi Hirata (No.147)]

He looked back on his smartwatch, surprisingly, Arun Seth was on the list.

Hirata rose from his seat with a smirk and thought to himself, 'How should I punish this guy? Breaking his four limbs is a good punishment. Ah, what about five as he dared to attack Master…'

He was thinking about how to punish his opponent, not caring about the fact Arun Seth was a Crown Class Ranker - Rank 26.
