The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1471

The crowd stood silently and watched on as Austin grabbed his opponent by the collar. His other hand formed a fist and punched him across the jaw. The man groaned and peered at Austin through squinted eyes. Austin raised his hand again.

The sound of flesh meeting flesh cut through the tense air. With each hit, the man became weaker, slouching in Austin's grip.

Despite his hatred towards the man, Austin controlled his powers so that the man wouldn't pass out from the pain. Both of their faces were twisted: Austin's in fury and the man's in excruciating pain.

Within seconds, the man's face had turned so swollen and purple that even his friends could not recognize him. Blood oozed from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose and dripped onto the dusty, dirt at their feet. His mouth opened and his eyes widened as Austin aimed another punch at him.

"Oh, no!

Please let me go. I'm so sorry and I promise that I will never do it again..." the man pleaded in a trembling voice.

Austin scanned him. His shoulders were slumped and his knees were buckling. If he paid close enough attention, he could even see the man's lips quivering.

The man had not expected Austin to overtake him. Austin had beat him so heavily that he could not attempt to fight back even if he had wanted to. Fear was sitting in his bones and the hungry look in Austin's eyes made his stomach explode with nervousness.

A malicious smile slowly spread on Austin's face. He leaned closer to the man and the smell of blood filled his nostrils. "If you ever insult my girl again, I will kill you," Austin whispered in the man's ears.

There was a promise of violence and an abundance of anger behind his words. His body tensed. One muscle at time popped up from his head down to his toes.

Before the man could respond, Austin punched him hard in the face.

The man's eyes crossed and he quickly fell away from Austin and landed on his back on the ground. A cloud of dust became suspended in the air around him.

With a final grunt, he lost his consciousness.

Austin activated the Dominant Spiritual Sense Swordsmanship and chopped the man's arms with the sword-light. He lifted him up, slapped him across the face, and knocked him down quickly in a one smooth blow.

It had taken him the couple seconds to do all this.

The resting area had fallen into a dead silence.

Thousands of participants stared at the scene with shock written all over their faces. Not one of them moved as Austin turned to face them.

"How dare you hurt innocent participants in the resting area? You've violated the rules and you're provoking the royal family. You've committed an unpardonable crime and you must be punished for it.

Guards, capture Austin and throw him into prison. He's broken the test rules,"

Ladd shouted after he'd snapped out of his shocked trance.

He had initially planned to use that man to humiliate Austin in front of everyone. He did not expect Austin to win and upstage him.

However, things had not gone as Ladd had expected.

Also, the result of their fight had caught him by surprise. 'Austin has just reached the preliminary stage of Semi-holy Realm. He should not have been able to defeat a Holy Realm cultivator of the preliminary stage at all, let alone so easily, ' Ladd thought in confusion.

Austin's skill in battle had shocked him, along with the rest of the people in the resting area.

There were a few hundred guards in the resting area, and they were responsible for keeping order and serving the young participants of the test.

After seeing how Austin had defeated the man, the guards glanced at once another. They shuffled back and forth on their feet. Upon hearing Ladd's order, only some of them were brave enough to approach Austin.

"Humph! Austin is our guest. You can't put him in prison!

This man insulted our guest so he deserves this," Belle added, pointing at the man on the ground and frowning at the guards.

She stepped in between them and Austin.

The guards froze immediately. It was clear on their faces that they did not know what to do next.

One of their orders had come from the marshal's grandson and the other had come from the prime minister's granddaughter. They couldn't afford to offend either party or they themselves would be punished and put in prison.

"Humph. You're a son of a bitch, Austin. I'll allow you to live a little longer.

I want you to enjoy the time you have because you will get killed in this tournament,"

Ladd declared before he turned away and let out a short burst of laughter.

Immediately afterward, he turned to face Austin again and his eyes filled with spite.
