The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell

Chapter 81

“Third-person,” Valentina replied to Yoel lightly.

Yoel frowned.

“Hmm? What do you mean?”

Valentina pointed faraway.

“The first person who bragged that he wanted to break my jaw… Well, I used him to smash open the entrance, and he’s still unable to stand up until today.”

Then, Valentina pointed at his feet.

“The second person, Jordan, who said that he wanted to break my limbs, stood right where you are now.

I broke his arm.”

Looking at Valentina’s profound gaze, Yoel quickly felt his scalp go numb.

“So… So what?!”

“You’re now the third person.

Congratulations, Yoel.”

Valentina suddenly flashed a smile at Yoel.

Although he showed his pearly whites, Yoel felt chills run down his spine, and he could not help but take a step back.

Later, Yoel recovered his senses, and he warned Valentina ruthlessly, “You better watch out!”

After he said that, Yoel turned around and left.

No matter how one looked at it, he seemed as if he ran away.

Valentina only swept a glance at Yoel’s back, and then he completely ignored him.

Instead, he focused his attention on the competition that was about to start soon.

Soon, the trials started under the elder’s announcement.

The rules were simple.

The Lawrence family members with the adjacent numbers would meet in the ring and compete until one of them fell or admitted defeat.

Then, the match would be over.

The first match was naturally Yoel, who drew the first lot, and his opponent was Walter Lawrence, a 15- year-old teenager.

Whether it was his age or his strength, Walter was no match for Yoel.

In just three rounds, Yoel slapped Walter’s chest, and he fell from the arena.

Yoel stood in the arena and cheered, “I won! I won!”

Walter wiped away the blood on the corner of his mouth, leaving the scene with regret.

As Yoel successfully moved to the next round, he found his confidence again, and he happily looked for Valentina in the crowd.

Initially, Yoel wanted to show up, but when he saw Valentina show a thumbs down at him, Yoel flew into a rage.

The second match ended quickly too, and it was finally Valentina’s turn to get in the ring for the third game.

Valentina’s match was a girl named Sheena Lawrence.

She was only 13, and her realm was only the first stage of the True Martial Realm.

No matter how one looked at it, Sheena was not Valentina’s opponent.

Hence, when the two walked into the ring, the crowd murmured among one another.

“Sheena is unlucky.

Her first match is with Anne.”

“I bet Anne will knock Sheena out of the ring in the first round.”

“Sigh! We can only hope that Anne will have mercy on Sheena and not hurt her too badly.

”

Sheena could hear the crowd’s discussion below, and she immediately felt uncomfortable.

After all, Sheena knew that she was no match for Valentina as the incident where he hit Jordan in the council chamber spread among the Lawrence family.

It was so shocking that people would talk about it every day, and Sheena was also familiar with the story.

Even so, Sheena still bit her lips and bravely stood in front of Jamie. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Anne, do excuse me…” The girl spoke in a slightly trembling tone.

Then, Valentina smiled and said, “Mm.

Do your best, and don’t worry too much!”

When Sheena saw Valentina’s gentle and encouraging smile, she felt her anxiety calmed down significantly.

“The Snowpiercer Swordsmanship!” In an instant, Sheena shouted as she shook a sword out of her hand, stabbing at Jamie.

Valentina saw Sheena’s Snowpiercer Swordsmanship in the Lawrence family’s martial art chamber, and it was a low-rank Mortal Grade martial skill.

Sheena’s realm was not high, so when she used the technique, Valentina was not afraid at all.

Valentina did not even move a step, and he just raised his hand where he stood.

Then, with only two fingers, he managed to clamp Sheena’s sword.

Just with a slight force, he tossed Sheena and her sword down the arena.

“Ahh!” Sheena shouted when she felt a sudden strong force sent her flying.

At first, Sheena thought she would fall horribly, but the next second, she steadily landed on the ground as if someone carried her and gently placed her there.

Sheena immediately understood that it was Valentina’s mercy to her.

“Anne, I… I admit defeat,” Sheena said as she looked at Abraham, who stood in the arena.

Then, she picked up her sword on the ground, turned around, and was ready to leave.

Although she accepted her defeat, Sheena still felt sad and uncomfortable.

That was the first time she competed with others on such a formal occasion, but she lost terribly.

As she walked away, Sheena became teary, but she kept biting her lips so that she did not cry.

“When you attack, raise your wrist an inch higher.

That way, its power can be increased by at least 20%.”

At that time, Sheena suddenly heard Valentina’s voice.

She turned around and looked at Abraham, who flashed her a friendly smile.

“Why don’t you give it a try?”

Seeing the encouragement in Valentina’s eyes, Sheena felt sudden confidence.

Then, she nodded, drew her sword, and stabbed.

That time, she followed Valentina’s words.

When she drew her sword, she raised her wrist an inch higher than she usually did.

Swoosh!

The silver light of the blade flashed, turning into a bright sword light in mid-air.

The next second, Sheena quickly showed a look of surprise and joy, and she exclaimed, “You’re right!”

Not only her, but those Lawrence family members who saw the scene could also feel the difference in speed and strength of her attacks.

“Your knowledge of the fundamentals is great, but your realm is slightly low now.

Hence, you weren’t able to fully showcase the swordsmanship strength.

Don’t rush to it, and take it slow.

You’ll succeed!” Valentina looked at Sheena, smiling as he cupped his hands.

“Good luck!”

Sheena felt a surge of warmth and enthusiasm in her.

The sadness she felt before was gone entirely.

Then, she nodded at Jamie.

“Yes! Thank you, Anne!”

Her tone was filled with gratitude and admiration.

Previously, Sheena sounded like she was just greeting Anne out of politeness, but one could feel her sincerity.

Those elders sitting on the high platform not far away saw the scene, and they all nodded slightly.

Even James smiled.

Although it was a competition, the Lawrence family’s biggest hope was for their future generation to temper themselves so they could improve further.

The placings were just secondary.

Moreover, Valentina’s guidance for Sheena achieved the Lawrence family’s senior member’s goal.

Hence, Yoel’s match where he hurt a fellow family member just to win appeared more embarrassing now.

When Yoel saw Valentina walking down the arena, his initially proud expression was ashen from anger, and he gritted his teeth hard.

Valentina was yet to attack him, but Yoel felt a horrible slap on his face, and he could not even do anything about it!

At the thought of that, Yoel was so angry he almost blew his top off.
