It is remaining about an hour before the tournament begins and by now, the Blue Moon Sect members are already at the colosseum. I have to rush to the food centre and add the elixir into the fighters' tea. Too bad they have a stupid habit of drinking tea during tournaments. Like, who the hell drinks tea during a tournament? I have to poison all the fighters' tea to prevent anyone from escaping the poison.
It was obvious that someone else would try to poison my tea so I took a bottle of water and hid it in my cloak. It was time for the tournament and as a candidate, I'll have to seat in the higher chamber. I sat down alone in the fifth corner since I didn't have a crew with me. The people weren't aware of the evil things the previous Lord has done so they mostly cheered him on but he wouldn't be winning this time.
It was time for the tournament. Then the host who thinks he is funny went to the ring and started cracking old-man jokes and those stupid ministers kept laughing. He then said it was time for the blessing of tea. We all had to stand up and raise our tea up high and say "As we drink the tea and clash our swords, may the blue moon shine bright." Such bullshit, I can't believe this is my culture.
After saying that shit we had to drink the tea. Everyone drank except from me and the previous Lord. "What's wrong Hanzhou, you should know that this is our culture. Or do you think the tea is not good enough for you?" the previous Lord said to me with a dirty look on his face. "Oh no my Lord, it was just too hot. Why don't we have the tea together?" I responded to the bastard.
We both held our teacups and gulped our tea. He smiled at me so confidently; he didn't know what was coming for him. The boring host then invited the first fighter who is the representative of the minister from the Blue Wind Clan: "Warrior San-Li." The second fighter who is the representative of the minister from the Moon Jade Clan: "Warrior Xian-Zhu." The third fighter who is the representative of the minister from the Blue Mist Clan: "Warrior Lian-Kong." The fourth fighter, the representative of the minister from the Fog Clan and the strongest cultivator in the Blue Moon Sect: "Yu-Min." And finally the fifth fighter, the Lord's warrior from the Mystic Mountain: "Lan-Ma."
The boring host then faced me and introduced me as the sixth warrior who is fighting for himself. I stood up and walked towards the ring when suddenly... I fell to the ground. "Who, who poisoned me?" I yelled as I struggled on the ground. The Lord stood up with a smirk and confidently said, "It is just an old trick to poison your opponent during a tournament. It has gotten so common that it feels like our culture."
I struggled to stand up and slowly moved to the stage. "Just give up, this looks so hopeless!" the Lord said with disgust. I crawled to the ring and forced myself to stand. As the tournament began, the other fighters started laughing. I fell on the ground and this time, it didn't look like I would be getting up. I raised up my head and smiled at the Lord and then, I clapped my hands.
Immediately, the other fighters felt a strong shock within their bodies. I stood up easily and adjusted my cloak leaving everyone speechless. What they didn't know was that I already switched my tea with the water I brought with me and everything was just an act to make the Lord confess. Now it was time for me to enjoy the show.
I brought out my water bottle and raised it into the air with might. The whole arena was now confused—even the other fighters raised up their guard. "This is one of the greatest artifacts ever sent from the heavenly realm down to the earthly realm and it brings pain to those who are cursed by me."
(That's just stupid) No one cares, Narrator.
One of the ministers said, "That's just stupid."
(I told you)—The weakness alone is activated by a sound that is made after the victim is put in shock. Since I clapped then, all I have to do is keep clapping.
"How dare you insult my artifact!" I said as I clapped my hands with the water bottle still in my hands. Immediately, all the fighters fell to the ground except Yu-Min who was struggling to stand. "This is outrageous!" I said as I clapped again. Now the three weaker fighters' hands destroyed while Yu-Min lost one arm and fell to the ground and Lan-Ma fell down without being able to get back up. Wait a minute, are they fighting back my poison? The poison I suffered to get, oh no way.
"Apologize!" I said as I kept clapping like a madman. The other fighters kept receiving pain from different parts of their body and this time, even Lan-Ma couldn't keep up. I kept clapping until they looked dead. I then picked up a sword and pierced their hearts one by one. I threw the sword and faced the crowd saying, "This is the kind of power the Blue Moon Sect needs to rise again and not tea poison. We need power that would lead us to victory!" Everyone cheered loudly to the point that nothing else could be heard.
"Stop!!!" The Lord shouted making the arena go silent. "I shall be the judge of that," the Lord said as he entered the ring. This old bastard actually wants to fight with me. Not to forget, I also poisoned him and the other ministers but my clap didn't activate their poisons—of course it wouldn't, I need to do better than a clap to put those bastards in shock.
"Wait!" I said catching everyone's attention as they watch to see what would happen next... "Your wife is flying!!" I said and immediately they all looked into the air. I clapped loudly and then all the ministers including the Lord felt the wave. "You all dared the glorious artifact, now suffer the consequences!" I shouted as I raised the water bottle.
(It's just a water bottle, you could have used something better). You're the one who came up with all of this Incognito man. (It's MR_REY_WRITER). Whatever, back to my story. I kept clapping and all the ministers including the old bastard kept suffering until they could not go any longer so I left them to bleed to death.
Aah! Finally, I am the... New Lord of the Blue Moon Sect. Now change my title MR. Incognito. (...) Sorry, MR-REY-WRITER.
M.C.: Lord Lu-Hanzhou of the Blue Moon Sect
