I am destroying the protagonist in the fantasy world!

Chapter 168: Sword Maniac Provokes, Brave Man Breaks the Blade

"How dare you! Who allowed you to trespass into the meeting room!" The family elder shouted angrily, his old face full of anger.

The man in green turned a deaf ear to the elder's rebuke. He slammed the sword in his hand to the ground, making a crisp "clang" sound. The sword body vibrated and hummed, as if responding to its master's fighting spirit.

"I'm a sword fanatic, and I've come here to learn from Brother Lei's skills!" The sword fanatic spoke in an arrogant tone, staring at Lei Yi with burning eyes, like a lone wolf staring at its prey.

The family elder frowned. He had originally intended to deal with Miss Roushui's matter first, and then arrange the competition between Lei Yi and the sword-crazed boy. However, the sword-crazed boy was arrogant and never followed the rules. Now, he had directly barged into the meeting room, making him lose face.

"How dare you! This is not the place where you can compete whenever you want!" An old man with white hair and beard next to the family elder slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Brother Lei is a real man, you should fight me squarely. Why be so timid and fussy?" The sword-crazy boy turned a deaf ear to the old man's words and just looked at Lei Yi provocatively.

Lei Yi smiled faintly. He knew that today's matter could not be resolved peacefully. This sword-crazy boy was obviously here to pick a fight. If he did not accept the challenge, he would probably label him as a coward.

"Since Brother Sword Maniac is so kind, I, Lei, will respectfully obey your command." Lei Yi said, slowly standing up and looking at the sword-crazy boy calmly.

"Good! This is the spirit that a cultivator of my generation should have!" The sword-crazy boy laughed loudly, with a stronger fighting spirit in his eyes.

"Have the competition in this conference room. Stop when you are satisfied and do not harm anyone!" said the family elder in a deep voice. He knew that he could no longer stop the competition and could only try his best to minimize the impact.

"Please teach me!" The sword-crazed young man had barely finished his words when he flashed and transformed into a streak of blue lightning, charging straight towards Lei Yi. The longsword in his hand transformed into a silver streak, carrying a sharp sword aura, aiming straight for Lei Yi's throat.

Lei Yi was prepared, and he dodged the sword-crazed boy's attack by moving to the side. The sword energy passed by him, leaving a faint blood mark on his cheek.

"What a fast sword!" Lei Yi was secretly surprised. The swordsmanship of this sword-crazy boy was indeed well-deserved. He showed amazing strength as soon as he made a move.

"Brother Lei, you are dodging, are you afraid?" The sword-crazy boy was not discouraged when he saw that his attack missed, but became even more excited. The long sword in his hand attacked Lei Yi like a storm, and each sword was extremely sharp and fatal.

Lei Yi could only keep dodging, and for a while he was suppressed and beaten by the sword-crazy boy, and had no power to fight back.

"Haha, Brother Lei, you're nothing special! It seems the rumors are not credible after all!" The sword-crazy boy attacked and mocked Lei Yi at the same time, trying to disturb Lei Yi's mind.

"Lei Yi, come on!" Just then, a clear voice rang out from the crowd. Lei Yi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Dongfang Liuli standing in the crowd, her beautiful eyes filled with worry and encouragement. Dongfang Liuli's voice was like a stream of clear water, pouring into Lei Yi's anxious heart. He took a deep breath, and his originally flustered steps steadied. Yes, he still had Liuli, and those who silently supported him. He couldn't just give up so easily!

Lei Yi's eyes flashed, and he seized the moment when the sword-crazy boy's attack slowed down a little, and took a step forward. At the same time, the long sword in his hand swept out, aiming directly at the boy's waist.

"You don't know your own limitations!" The sword-crazy boy sneered, without dodging or evading, he swung the sword in his hand back at an incredible angle, and unexpectedly arrived first. At the moment when Lei Yi's sword was about to touch the corner of his clothes, it touched Lei Yi's wrist.

A powerful force came from Lei Yi, and his wrist went numb, nearly sending his sword flying. He quickly used the force to step back, putting some distance between him and the sword-crazed youth. Only then did he realize that his arm had been cut open, and blood was gushing out.

"Lei Yi!" Dongfang Liuli exclaimed, wanting to go forward to check, but was stopped by the family elders, "Miss Liuli, the competition is not over yet, do not disturb."

Dongfang Liuli was extremely anxious, but she also understood that what the elder said made sense, so she could only stand where she was, staring at Lei Yi with her beautiful eyes, and praying silently for him in her heart.

The sword-crazed young man didn't press his advantage. Instead, he sheathed his sword and stood, looking at Lei Yi with interest. "Brother Lei, you don't seem as formidable as the rumors say. Could it be that you made up all those rumors to deceive the world and steal fame?"

Lei Yi ignored the sword-crazed boy's taunts. He looked down at the wound on his arm, blood staining his sleeves. He seemed insensitive to the pain, simply gripping the sword tightly, his eyes growing fiercer.

"What? Brother Lei, are you planning to give up resistance?" Seeing this, the sword-crazy boy curled up a scornful smile on his face. He liked to see his opponent showing this kind of desperate expression the most, which made him feel extremely happy.

Lei Yi didn't say anything. He took a deep breath, put aside all the messy thoughts in his mind, and fixed his eyes on the sword-crazy boy, as if he wanted to see through him.

The sword-crazed young man's swordsmanship was indeed sharp and his speed was astonishing, but Lei Yi had noticed that, while his sword moves were exquisite, they seemed to lack some variety. Each move seemed somewhat deliberate, as if he was following some fixed routine...

Lei Yi's eyes gradually became sharper. He stared closely at every movement and every subtle change in the sword-crazy boy's expression, trying to find his flaws.

"Could it be..." A sudden flash of inspiration struck Lei Yi's mind. He stared intently at the sword-crazed boy's longsword as a bold hypothesis formed in his mind... Lei Yi's eyes were as sharp as a hawk's. He watched the boy's every move, replaying the details of the previous exchange in his mind. He knew that the boy's swordsmanship was indeed superb, his speed and strength far surpassing his own. A head-on confrontation was definitely not the best strategy.

Suddenly, Lei Yi's eyes focused. He found that although the sword-crazy boy's sword moves were sharp, there would be an extremely slight pause in his wrist at the moment of each change of sword moves, as if it was some kind of habitual movement, which was difficult to detect.

"Now!" Lei Yi said in his heart, and he decided to take a gamble.

He took a deep breath and deliberately exposed a flaw to lure the sword-crazed boy into attacking.

The sword-crazy boy was fooled. A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and the long sword in his hand stabbed towards Lei Yi's chest like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.

"Too slow!" Lei Yi curled his lips into a sneer. Just when the tip of the sword was about to touch his clothes, he turned his body to the side, barely avoiding the attack. At the same time, the long sword in his hand stabbed at the wrist of the sword-crazy boy at a tricky angle.

The sword-crazy boy's face changed slightly. He obviously didn't expect that Lei Yi could see through his weakness. In a hurry, he had to change his moves to block.

However, Lei Yi had been waiting for this moment.

At the moment when the sword-crazy boy changed his moves, Lei Yi shook his wrist, and the long sword in his hand coiled up like a spirit snake, bypassing the sword-crazy boy's defense at an incredible angle and touching his wrist.

"Ah!" The sword-crazy boy cried out in pain. He could no longer hold the sword in his hand. The sword slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.

"You..." The sword-crazy boy covered his bloody wrist and looked at Lei Yi in disbelief. He never thought that he would be defeated by an unknown kid.

"Thank you." Lei Yi said lightly, not feeling happy about the victory. He knew that this was just the beginning.

The sword-crazed young man's face turned pale. He looked at Lei Yi deeply, then turned and left without saying a word, leaving only a cold word echoing in the air:

"Today's shame will be avenged tomorrow!"

Lei Yi watched the sword-crazed young man leave. He knew that this battle was far from over...
