After Taken as a Prisoner of War, the Vampire Queen Turned Me Into a Vampire and Made Me Her Daughter

Chapter 30: What sort of situation is this?

Ahhhh! Five recruits encircled Morton. They unleashed the strength they accumulated as they brandished their weapons.

The long-ax in Mortons hand was like a long and powerful arm. Along with a series of metal sparks that emitted from their weapons the various swords and pikes in the recruits hands had all been knocked flying because of his move.

What- Before they could react the long-ax reminiscent of a death gods sickle suddenly went towards them while raising dirt in its wake.

The axe swung 360 degrees and sent all five of them flying on top of it like barbeque skewers. The five recruits who had just fainted were pitifully picked up like a big pinwheel they were eventually flung outwards. Just like salted fish they crashed against the metal walls of the arena.

Alright I see it now I finally understand why theres a need to design built-in metal walls in the arena.

While he saw the inhumane and one-sided massacre currently happening in front of him Ji Bai silently interjected in his thoughts.

Because of cowardice you have abandoned your allies. The only thing thats awaiting you is a fight with the enemy alone. Ever since time immemorial that has never been a wise choice. A thick and muffled voice interrupted Ji Bai from silently observing from the sidelines. As he abruptly checked his surroundings he saw that there was only him left in this entire battle-scarred arena Then he saw the big tin-can slowly walk towards himself. It was extremely obvious that the words he said earlier were meant for Ji Bai.

Hmm? Im the only one left? That was fast. Ji Bai assessed the bodies of newcomers that were tragically sprawled about the arena. He was now certain of his thoughts. He turned to look at the hourglass and realized that less than half of its content had flowed down.

Alright. This match shall end with the new students being unable to even touch a hair on Mortons body. Full stop.

I hope you will engrave this lesson onto your heart new student. Inside the helmet Morton shot a meaningful glance at the new student who brought no protective equipment but instead carried a rusted and tattered sword.

Hey! A good shows about to start! Above the spectator stand Lin Tuo wished for nothing but to take out a pack of popcorn right now and sit down to watch this scene with bliss.

Mister Ji Bai With her small claws covering her heart Keer was silently praying for Ji Bais safety from the bottom of her heart.

Alright it really looks like theres only me left. Ji Bai thought.

Upon seeing the tin-can knight walking directly towards him JI Bai held the severely dulled longsword upright. The side of the blade edge pressing against his shoulder blade he did a proper knight salute.

Hmm? This new student knows how to perform a proper knight etiquette? Not bad although His courage and skills still have room for improvement.

In the spirit of belief in the knights creed Morton gripped his ax and laid it against his shoulder returning the salute with respect.

Ji Bai didnt waste any time beating around the bush after the salute; With a swing of his arms he held onto the blade edge of the long sword.Hm? Morton felt somewhat puzzled as he saw the teenagers action following the respectful decorum.

In the middle of the battle it was a very common move to use the hilt of a longsword to engage in blunt attacks. While its hit-rate and lethality were far inferior as opposed to attacking with a blades edge its usefulness laid in attacking the head of an enemy. By bringing about momentary dizziness after a successful strike it would give the attackers an edge in battle. However in a confrontation like this it was usually done when the enemy had let down his guard.

And yet this teenager had expressed his intentions to attack in this manner from the beginning. It was an extremely foolish move on his part.

Youngster it seems that theres still a lot you need to learn Morton said in a profound manner.

Morton wasnt going to show any mercy just because of his opponents inexperience. If they were going to have real combat it should have all the elements of one.

Like a sharp sword cutting through a piece of paper the head of the long ax descended as it sliced through the wind creating a series of rustling winds in its trajectory. The tall and sturdy fortress-looking knight had shockingly attacked Ji Bai with amazing intent! Like a death reaper pressing someone to its death the massive steel figure assaulted Ji Bai within the scattered dust he possessed an amazingly overbearing aura.

When faced with such a sudden and imposing aura Ji Bai still didnt have the slightest intentions of dodging and stood steadfastly at his original spot.

Did he resign to his fate already? Or is he planning to use pure brute force to resist against my attack? Thats impossible! Morton narrowed his eyes. Ji Bai stared emotionlessly at the gloomy and massive piece of iron that was approaching ever more closer towards him Ji Bai weighed the sword in his hand. Suddenly he fixed his gaze on a particular area grabbed the sword and ruthlessly swung it like he was swinging a baseball bat.

Pang! His motion which was difficult to detect with the naked eye seemed to hit something in the air. It caused a metallic collision of sound that was extremely loud people could swear that even a deaf person could hear it. In the next moment a massive inverted silhouette flew outwards and firmly left a human-sized hole on the metal wall.

For a moment a deafening silence enveloped the scene.

The few spectators that were on the scene revealed a blank expression on their faces. They didnt have a clear look at what happened earlier. How could a large tin object suddenly fly out without any rhyme or reason?

Ji Bai who stayed unmoved on his spot ever since the beginning then dropped the sword in his hands whose hilt was now severely warped. After doing so he glanced at the hourglass on the judges table.

It wasnt 3 minutes yet.

The track prints on the ground that could have been made by a tank continued all the way until Ji Bais feet before finally losing its trace.

Im afraid I cant quite control myself if I were to use the edge of my blade. Ji Bai turned his body away. He wasnt going to look at the unconscious old man that was deeply embedded into the metal wall.

The examination is over. I would like to congratulate you on perfectly passing the combat test. The refined teenager gradually stood up from the judges seat. Then with eyes filled with interest he assessed this teenager of mysterious origins in front of him.

Although the few audiences in the scene were at a loss at what happened in front of them he had witnessed it clearly.

Oh I passed? In that case can I come up now?

Of course you can. Can I ask whats your name student? The refined man gave an amiable smile.

Ji Bai.

Ji Bai Alright Ji Bai youre free to leave the arena now.

Holy shit!? What just happened? On the spectators seats Lin Tuo was incessantly using his spectacles cloth to wipe its lenses. He just couldnt believe his own eyes as he repeatedly ascertained the situation below.

Compared to humans the eyesight of the Asiatic race was obviously much keener. Keer who had barely made out Ji Bais actions had opened her tiny mouth so wide that one could fit a small apple in it.

Youre still in a daze? Lets go isnt there still a written exam? Ji Bai who had just come up from the arena below patted Lin Tuo. He had just recovered from the shock of having his world-view collapse.

This new student is pretty interesting dont you think? The refined man gave a faint smile and shifted his sight towards the side.

Hes a knight. At least a lord class. From the corner of the darkness a man draped with a mantle and a black iron mask on his face slowly walked out. He proceeded to the front of the refined man.

Someone with such an ability-grade shouldnt be a new student. The man smiled.

Do you need to send some men to observe him?Theres no need. Petty tricks like sneaking around have never been of use against those higher-class knights. Instead it would only cause unneeded suspicion The refined man smiled as he spoke up to this point.

Speaking of which phantom. As a fellow lord-class knight what are your odds of success against him?

50%. The masked man replied after he murmured with contemplation.
