Huji was a well known fighter, though not an excellent one he could be considered as an above average fighter in the Slayer grounds. Witnessing a kid who had yet to develop a beard knock him down with ease was something the spectators never dared to imagine.
The crowd below who fell silent for a while broke into hushed whispers breaking the eerie calm that has descended on the entire arena. Huji who was bewildered earlier was now frozen stiff as the demeaning whispers fell on his ears.
He had underestimated Xia Lian and now he was paying for it. The sneers in his mind have been successfully silenced by her stealth skills. He had no choice but to acknowledge her and treat her as a formidable opponent. He had learnt his lesson and he was now regretting his hasty attitude in assessing others.
He was guarded against her but he had to admit that there was this large part of his heart that was looking forward to cross swords with the tiny yet formidable kid.
