BAIHU (White Tiger Warrior): Challenging the Dragon
CHAPTER 32 | Inter-sect martial arts match

The day of the martial match between the big sects had arrived. The heads of the big sects each came with some elders, teachers and 4 disciples that would be included in this match.

Although the match was only attended by 3 students, they were allowed to invite one more person as a backup as well as to learn from the match.

“Honor sect head” greet the organizers while saluting see the arrival of the group of people entering the arena.

Seeming to be from the Heaven Sword sect, sect head Xu Xuan accompanied by his two elders came to the match arena with Master Wang Lei followed by Gong Jun, Gao Tian, Xin Ye and Yang Zi.

Then emerged from the Sun Moon sect, the sect head of Shang Chi, Shu Wei, Wang Mei with Shu Chao, Zhang Ji, Lei Jun and Baihu.

“Chairman of Shang Chi sect, how are you chairman?” greet sect head Xu Xuan from the Sky Sword sect while smiling with the arrival of the Sun Moon sect.

From the Sacred Lotus sect, sect head Yuan Zhi was with two elders and teachers as well as his 4 disciples Diao Shi, Yan Zhu, Mei San, and Yi Feng.

“Two sects” They greet each other between sect heads when they meet.

The three great sects in the mountain range had attended first, then followed each of the Kunlun sect, the Huasa sect, the Ice Moon sect, the Wudang sect, and the other sects, the Ming Sect and the King's Tomb sect came in succession.

From the Ming sect seen the sect head, the Convicted King Shi Long saluted the Sun Moon sect head last sitting on the spot he had provided. The sect disciples remained lined up in the arena, while the sect heads along with the elders and teachers were in the upper stands.

“The game when it starts?” muttered Baihu felt bored waiting for the match to start.

After a simple opening ceremony, finally the martial arts matches between the big sects of the 9 sects would start immediately. The rule is a match of 3 students taking turns appearing in the arena. The defeated disciple would be replaced by his friend to fight against the victor, and so on until the three sect disciples lost.

The sect whose three disciples lost, automatically fell to step into the next round. The defending champions were given the privilege of directly advancing to the second round. Three years ago, the defending champion was still in the Sky Sword sect. So they are free to go through the first half and advance to the second

To determine the opponent, the teachers will take the number and the number will determine their opponent.

“Good, we announce the results of the number retrieval by the sect masters” shouted the committee who will read the results of the number retrieval.

The first round, the Sky Sword Sect got away directly. The Ming sect fought the Kunlun sect, the Sacred Lotus sect against the Huasan sect, the Sun Moon sect against the Ice Moon sect, and the King Tomb sect against the Wudang sect.

The first match between the Ming sect against the Kunlun sect, the first disciple of the Ming sect won two matches against the disciple of the Kunlun sect, but was defeated by the third disciple of the Kunlun sect. The third disciple of the Kunlun sect also defeated the second disciple of the Ming sect, thus making the standing balanced.

Until the last match was the third disciple of the Ming sect against the third disciple of the Kunlun sect. This match was a determination because the other two students from each had lost.

“I will not lose to you” muttered the third disciple of the Kunlun sect staring at the third disciple of the Ming sect.

The third disciple of the Ming sect this time around was their mainstay, a disciple taught directly by sect head Shi Long and had mastered the 5 moves of the 8 moves of the Earth and Sky of the Ming sect. The cultivation strength of this disciple was at the peak stage Holy realm.

“Be prepared!” shouted the third disciple of the Ming sect who instantly charged ferociously towards the third disciple Kunlun.

The match was fierce with the same strength, so the pace became the determinant of the match. By mastering the 5 moves of the 8 moves of the Earth and Sky, finally the third disciple of the Ming sect managed to defeat the third disciple of Kunlun.

“The winner is Zhao Yun, from the Ming” sect shouted the committee reading out the final result.

The disciples of the Ming sect cheered in excitement because they could finally win that first round.

The next match was between the Sacred Lotus sect and the Huasan sect. The strategy of the Sacred Lotus sect in the first round was to directly take out their flagship card, Diao Shi against the first disciple of the Huasan sect.

“Sister, you can definitely beat them all” Yan Zhu said cheering Diao Shi on.

When the game begins, Diao Shi who controlled 6 styles of the 8 Lotus Buddha styles seemed to attack ferociously towards the first disciple of the Huasan sect who only controlled 3 moves from the 7 Nirvana Palms of the Hujanan sect.

The cultivation strength of Diao Shi was also at the late level Holy realms whereas his opponent was at the early level Holy realms. This difference in strength made Diao Shi easily take down the first disciple of Huasan in 3 moves.

“The strength of their first disciple is still far below me” muttered Diao Shi after winning his first match.

The second disciple of the Huasan sect was also his strength was at the early level Holy Realm so Diao Shi again dropped him in 3 moves. The third disciple of the Huasan sect was stronger than before because he was in the middle level Holy Realm, and had mastered 5 moves from the 7 Nirvana Palm moves.

This time Diao Shi seemed a little difficult to win the match faster than before. Finally dozens of moves have passed in the match.

“Murid this third is harder than ever. The mastery of his manager is enough to make it difficult for me to attack him.” muttered Diao Shi.

Diao Shi's face looked red as his enemy's strength was one level lower than his, but his nurse's strength was more ferocious than his. Although it was a bit of a difficulty, yet Diao Shi was finally able to win all three matches against Huasan disciples.

“The winner is the Sacred Lotus sect” shouted the committee after Diao Shi managed to defeat the three disciples of Huasan.

“Congratulations sect head Yuan Zhi, your disciples are indeed far above the strength of disciples of my sect. We still have a lot to learn again” praised sect leader Hujanan.

“Hahaha. My disciple almost lost to your third disciple” Yuan Zhi's laughter

Next was the Sun Moon sect's turn, where Shu Wei arranged for his grandson Shu Chao to make his first appearance like the Sacred Lotus sect. He was confident that his grandson could defeat the three disciples from the Ice Moon sect so Baihu did not need to appear as he was third.

Baihu looked calm and indifferent with the arrangement, for him as long as the Sun Moon sect could win, he could get a chance to enter the wisdom cave with them.

“I just want to learn again in the cave of wisdom” Baihu murmured in her heart.
