How could Honda Ryuichi's intentions be concealed from Honda Tsubasa?
This father of hers, driven by power and greed, surely could not have brought out the Yin Yang Crescent Blade just for the simple sake of his own life.
He merely wants her to clash with these clan disciples, and in the end, reap the benefits as a fisherman.
The ancestral treasure of the Honda family, the Yin Yang Crescent Blade, is even brought out to use. This time, Honda Ryuichi has truly laid down substantial assets, but unfortunately, he ended up being one step behind in the game.
She is no longer the Honda Tsubasa of yore; even if these clan disciples are intelligent, they still cannot harm her!
They will only fall under her blade!
And the Honda family that abandoned her will meet the same fate!
For the family of the past, Honda Tsubasa no longer harbors any feelings. After giving Honda Ryuichi a cold glance, she turned her gaze towards the participating disciples.
"Next."
"Next..."
Not long ago, for the sake of fighting over the Honda family's supreme treasure, the Yin Yang Crescent Blade, countless individuals rushed to the stage to teach Honda Tsubasa a lesson.
But now, having witnessed Honda Tsubasa's true power, nobody dared to try their luck for the next round.
"I... I forfeit!"
Among the crowd, after a moment of hesitation, someone snorted and withdrew from the match.
Withdrawing is indeed somewhat humiliating, but compared to jumping on stage and being thrown off by Honda Tsubasa, it's somewhat better.
His family's influence background is plain to begin with; this time he merely came to take a chance.
Now that it's not possible, there's really no need to force it.
"It's meaningless, I won't fight either."
Once someone set the precedent, quickly, among the participating disciples, plenty of people began to look towards the elders of their families.
Consulting with their eyes, considering whether they should take this excellent opportunity to quickly forfeit as well.
After a bit of weighing options, considering the blinding brilliance of Honda Tsubasa on stage and the ignorable presence of Xu Fan below, soon after, many families opted to withdraw from the match.
They have long held high positions and are no longer the passionate youths of old.
They thoroughly understand weighing pros and cons, and now the position of Alliance Hierarch is beyond reach for them; why should they fight till they bleed for it?
Rather than this, it's better to take the time now and think hard about how to gain the greatest benefit after Honda Tsubasa ascends to the position of Alliance Hierarch.
"Hmph, I truly do not accept this."
There are those who are willing, and naturally, there are those who are unwilling.
This time, the clan competition saw many families incur significant costs in preparation for it.
Now to just give up, they are unwilling.
With signals exchanged via their eyes, they directly let their participating disciples step on stage to fight Honda Tsubasa.
As a result, there was no surprise; although they are the elites mastering their family's unique acts, they are still weak as children before Honda Tsubasa.
The weaknesses and flaws of their proud techniques had long been seen clearly by Honda Tsubasa, how to fight?
Unwilling, yet eventually had to obediently succumb.
Very soon, that bunch of unwilling ones left only a few.
The few remaining, under the signaling gaze of their clan elders, displayed expressions of extreme reluctance.
They couldn't help but internally curse their family elders blind?
This bunch of people was already knocked down by this woman, yet still send them up?
Offering heads?
Truly dare not defy family commands, they clenched their teeth one after another and leaped onto the ring.
But Honda Tsubasa need not act personally; they began playing faux-indulgence themselves.
Joking, with so many bloody examples already set, still make themselves struggle, kidding?
Thus, only the last family attending this clan competition remained.
The Honda family.
"Still want to fight?"
Honda Tsubasa remained expressionless, looking towards Honda Ryuichi.
Despite having individually laid down all opponents earlier, she was not particularly weary.
Seeing this, two clusters of flames almost exploded from Ryuichi's eyes!
At this moment, he couldn't help feeling regret.
If initially, he hadn't played so many schemes with Xu Fan and acted straightforwardly, perhaps he would have achieved what he wanted by now.
His many efforts seemed to follow an opposite path.
"Fight! Why not fight!"
After scheming for so many days, now seeing efforts almost being bubbles, a burst of indignation surged in Ryuichi's chest!
Grinding his teeth and glaring at Honda Tsubasa, he yelled.
Quickly, among Honda family members, a young man stepped forward.
Without a word, he walked directly towards the arena.
A leap brought him straight to the stage.
"Honda Tsubasa, your next opponent is me."
Honda family members, Honda Tsubasa could not be unfamiliar with.
The person before her was particularly recognizable.
Once upon a time, she called him brother, and most of Honda family martial arts were personally taught to her by him.
Now they meet in the ring, an unexpected result indeed.
He always had the grace of having taught her.
Also her brother...
"Are you certain you want to fight me?"
As her gaze moved away from the knocked-out opponents on the stage, Honda Tsubasa looked at him.
Truthfully speaking, she did not want to harm him.
If he could voluntarily forfeit now, it would be splendid.
Otherwise, driven by Honda Ryuichi, fear he'd never admit defeat until death...
Honda Tsubasa's persuasion clearly wasn't taken seriously by the other side.
His response to Honda Tsubasa was only a cold sneer.
"What? Do you think I'm undeserving to fight you?"
Smirking coldly at Honda Tsubasa, he said: "Honda Tsubasa, don't forget, I taught you everything you know."
"You beat them, so can I."
"This time, you won't defeat me, just like before."
With that, he unsheathed the sword from his waist.
This time, the opponent before him is his sister, but she is no longer part of the Honda family.
Now as she blocks the Family Head's path, naturally, he should eliminate her for the Family Head!
"Hesitating for what! Kill her!"
Below, Ryuichi's impatient roar broke out!
In the midst of the irksome roar, wielding the sharp blade, he finally charged towards Honda Tsubasa!
The strike showed no mercy!
In the whistling wind, a teardrop fell from the corner of Honda Tsubasa's eye.
"I'm sorry..."
A soft whisper followed, and the longsword at her waist was drawn from its sheath!
Indeed, she received all her martial skills from him.
But that was part of the past...
