The World of Sound - Chapter 80

“also……!”

“I finally got the chance to buy it!”

“Even if it’s a margin, it’s a direct descendant of the Namgung family, so wouldn’t it be difficult?”

The designation of the margin and the standing of the designated opponent.

Although they didn’t go up on stage right away, the two were already fighting as if a fight had begun.

The tense standoff is so intense that it feels like they know each other and are very aware of each other.

However, even with the prayers of Majin, who was considered one of the hundred greatest masters of Sapa, the opponent showed no signs of being overwhelmed at all.

This is because he also possesses powerful martial arts skills that are not inferior to Margin.

The prestigious Namgung family.

It’s like being born with everything a direct descendant of that place could possibly have.

From birth, they receive a ritual of washing themselves with water and are able to eat plenty of elixirs. They also learn the Changgungmuae Sword Technique, which, although it may be difficult for them to master the Emperor’s Sword, allows them to look up at Hwagyeong if they practice it properly. They also receive frequent guidance from the elders of their family who have practiced it their entire lives. It would be more surprising for them not to become masters.

That is why Namgung Jang-hyeon, who was pointed out by Margin, was also a master of the Changgungmuae Sword Technique who had mastered it quite deeply.

Although Margin pointed out that he was a strong player, it is difficult to tell who is superior, as it can be interpreted as a challenge rather than a beating.

“Nonsense! Can the martial arts of someone who has crossed countless death lines and someone who has been confined to a family and only accumulated punishment be said to be the same? Even if he is a direct descendant of Namgung, he will not be able to defeat Iron Lion.”

Therefore, normally, a higher score should be given to someone who has learned a famous, systematic, and proven martial arts, but the opponent was Margin.

A man who has achieved numerous fame and tales of bravery with his two fists.

Many people had high regard for him because he had already proven himself with his skills and reputation.

Although Namgung Jang-hyeon was a direct descendant of the Namgung Se-ga and the younger brother of the Namgung Se-ga family, his fame rarely spread throughout the martial arts world because he was overshadowed by his older brother, Namgung Se-ga.

Rather than revealing himself, he always chose to support from behind and never coveted the position or authority of the head of the household, so his abilities were not even properly known.

It was only by chance that it was revealed that he was also a master of the highest level, but no one knew how deeply he had mastered the martial arts.

‘It won’t be easy, right?’

However, the moment he stepped onto the stage, Cheonhwa felt an extraordinary prayer from him.

It was predicted that it would not be easy to collect the debt with a high margin.

There was no information about him, but his breathing, his gait, and the leisure and resonance that came from his movements spoke of his skills.

It’s not a prestigious school for nothing.

He was the second son of a group that had been the head of the Five Great Clans for a long time, and he was directly under the head of the family. So, even if he had not shown his abilities to the outside world and had not gone through a bloody journey in the martial arts world, his military power could not be said to be weak.

“It’s been a while, Margin. How have you been?”

“I don’t think we have a close relationship where we can exchange greetings or anything.”

The attitudes of the two people who came up on stage were completely different.

Unlike Marjin, who was very sharp, Namgung Jang-hyeon greeted him with a rather relaxed tone and even a faint smile.

“Of course. Actually, I’m not really curious. But I just asked Young-i because she seemed curious.”

“… … .”

Because of this, the margin was immediately met, but Namgung Jang-hyeon still had the relative advantage.

As he turned around and replied, Margin’s eyes turned towards the lady and trembled slightly.

“A love song between rivals, how romantic!”

“Huh? A love rival?”

At that moment, Dang Mimi, who had left her family seat and approached Cheonhwa, clung to him and spoke.

However, the content was quite different from what Cheonhwa had expected.

It’s not that the woman owed money to Margin, but that Margin and Namgung Jang-hyeon once fought over the woman.

“You don’t know Gaga? It’s a pretty famous story! Before the Iron Lion Majin became famous, he was her lover. While he was perfecting his martial arts and going on a journey, he became famous because the Namgung family brought a hawk to the Kwon family, so when he came back, he became someone else’s woman. That’s why the Iron Lion growls whenever he sees the Namgung family’s warriors.”

“Those two? Isn’t that surprising? It’s Beauty and the Beast, after all.”

No, we didn’t really fight.

The two were originally lovers, but while Majin was away, Namgung Jang-hyeon fell in love with her and proposed to her, putting a matchmaker in her family, so it could be said that he took her away.

I don’t know if he stubbornly refused, but it was a common occurrence in the Central Plains.

Because marriage is not just a union between the parties.

Since it was a matter of family ties, it was not uncommon for it to be done based on the agreement and interests of the families rather than their own wishes, and if the other party was none other than the Namgung family, it would have been difficult to refuse, even if we do not know how powerful the Kwon family was.

I guess we should consider it as virtually impossible.

Rejecting the hawks could be a loss of face for them, and if someone as determined as Namgung Se-ga were to try to harm them, they could easily bring down any family.

On the contrary, if you accept it, there is an endless amount to be gained.

“Hmm. So that’s why you had those eyes?”

Only then did I understand the regretful and hazy look in her eyes.

It may have been difficult to understand at the time, but if you still have some of those feelings or regrets, then it could be possible.

“Then this is like a revenge match?”

“You could say that, right? Since she’s already the woman of the Namgung family, even if she wins, nothing will change, but it’ll be hard to win. No matter how outstanding the martial arts of the Majin Daehyeop are, her opponent is a direct descendant of the Namgung family. She’s just overshadowed by the head of the family, but I know that her martial arts skills are also quite high.”

So, from Margin’s perspective, it would be like a revenge match.

As Dangmimi said, winning won’t change anything, but at least you’ll be able to empty a part of your heart.

“She doesn’t care. This is a challenge for me to surpass the martial arts of the Namgung Sega family, so I shouldn’t blur the essence with unnecessary words.”

“Well, I guess so. As I said, I just wanted to satisfy my wife’s curiosity.”

However, Margin kept his feelings completely hidden.

Perhaps it was because every word he uttered could be a burden or a problem to her.

Also, in reality, she had already become Namgung’s woman, so even though he couldn’t let her go in his heart, he needed to keep his distance.

Let’s make that clear. Namgung Jang-hyeon replied with a bitter laugh once again.

“Then why don’t you challenge me? I’ll show you once again that the Namgung Sega family’s sword is great.”

Once again, he seemed confident that he would make it clear that she was his wife, as well as showing the difference between himself and Margin.

‘again?’

However, the thing that caught my attention was the expression ‘again’.

That would mean that the two have already been together once before.

And the fact that he was trying again meant that Margin had lost to him at the time.

It would have been after the end of the non-combat mission, so it wouldn’t have been much different from now.

“Well. They say that Namgung Se-ga’s sword is high, but I’m not sure if your sword is the same. Since it’s a sword that was only swung inside the palace, I don’t think its ceiling is the sky.”

However, this time the margin really showed itself.

It is unclear whether he believes in his own invincible power that has grown beyond comparison, or whether he realizes that his opponent has not grown at all, but he does not show even the slightest hint of intimidation even though he has already lost to him once.

“If the sky is contained in the sword, what use is the ceiling? If you find it hard to believe, just experience it for yourself. Isn’t that your specialty?”

Gooooooooo-

The opponent does not back down at all and fights back.

Not only the words, but the energy flowing out of the two collided with each other, already making the unarmed man shake.

“The sea I longed for.”

“Commence the fight!”

At that moment, the declaration of war was issued.

At the same time, Margin stepped on the Iron King’s Step first and closed the distance.

Each step taken with a body dyed red radiated overwhelming pressure.

“Iron King’s Treasure.”

It is not just the Iron King’s Treasure, but it is capable of being called the Iron King’s Treasure.

“Whirlwind cutting style!”

However, the opponent did not back down and swung his sword.

Although he could feel that the energy radiating from Margin was quite different from before, he didn’t care because he believed in his own martial arts skills.

It is a belief in the depth of learning that is not only an achievement but also the strength of the Namgung family that has continued for a long time.

“Look how strong it has become!”

The sky was formed on his sword.

It was as if the sky had fallen and fallen, and a great force was poured into the sword and it struck him down.

“Iron Mountain Collapse.”

In response, Margin also calmly threw a punch.

He extended his deeply drawn fist towards the sword, and he also exerted unprecedented strength.

If what falls is the sky, what hits back is Mt. Taishan.

They clashed head-on, clashing forces without avoiding anyone.

“Huh?!”

At the moment of clash, it was Namgung Jang-hyeon who let out a voice of defeat.

As expected of the best of the prestigious school, the power contained in his sword was truly formidable, but in terms of power, Margin had the slight advantage.

“Infinite steps!”

But that alone did not decide the outcome.

Perhaps because Margin was famous for his strength and destructive power from the beginning, as soon as he realized that he was being pushed back in strength, he quickly retreated by using his defensive technique to relieve the shock.

Its appearance was like the sky embracing a great bird.

Not only the tip of the sword, but the entire body resembles the sky, dispersing the energy of the margin that surges forward flexibly and gracefully.

“Muryusageom!”

Four cross cuts hit the margin simultaneously.

It was as if he had given up on a single blow and cut all the vital points on his body with the power and precision of a martial art that was completely different from the Changgungmuae Sword Technique that Namgung Jin had been using.

“The iron fist of destruction.”

What Margin did in response to the consecutive attacks of the guy who was both an attacker and a defender was to once again pull his fist out and extend it.

Even if he attacked with the same number of consecutive strikes, it would be enough to force him into a defensive position, but this seemed to be intended to completely destroy his martial arts skills.

“!!”

Benda. You can bell.

However, it is pierced.

A thought like that of foreknowledge was engraved in Namgung Jang-hyeon’s mind.

That’s why I had no choice but to choose.

Should I aim for Donggwi Eojin or avoid it?

The thought of stopping or confronting it simply did not cross my mind.

“Wow, Ungeomgeonchui… …! Kkuek!”

Kwaang!!!

He immediately tried to turn back the spread of his sword and grab the top of the sword to deflect the attack, but it wasn’t enough.

Before he could even let it out, he was struck by the powerful force that stabbed him like an awl, and he vomited out blood.

“… … !”

“That?”

“no way……?”

Crackle! Crackle!

However, Namgung Jang-hyeon was not the only one who was taken advantage of.

The moment the sword and the fist clashed, some energy spread from him and scratched Majin’s body.

Blacksmith.

It may seem like a realm where you can hurt your opponent with just your energy, but it’s different from that.

Some people tried to keep their eyes clouded, but those with keen eyes and extensive knowledge of martial arts instantly realized what kind of martial arts he had displayed.

Emperor’s invisible cloud.

The first blade of the Emperor’s Sword that Namgung Jin had seen unfolded from him.

Of course, it was in a form that was transformed and had power that could not be compared to that of someone like Namgung Jin.

“How could someone who doesn’t even know how to do that… …?”

The important thing was not whether he was a master who could perform the Emperor Sword Form. The Emperor Sword Form was a martial art that was only allowed to those who inherited the position of the head of the family from among the direct lineage.

Even if you haven’t mastered it, you may have seen what your older brother, Namgung Se-ga, has done, so you may be able to imitate it similarly, but this is not at the level of imitation.

If you are a skilled enough person, you can see that you have mastered it so deeply that you can use it unconsciously as a change.

“Iron ingot.”

It was a dangerous thing to think that he was aiming for the position of head of the household or that he was breaking the family rules and learning the Emperor’s Sword, but Margin was not surprised or concerned about such things.

He simply endured the Emperor’s invisible energy that was binding and scratching him with his whole body, and took one step deeper into his embrace.

The sight of him enduring the auras of strong energy with his bare body was just like the legendary diamond.

As the saying goes, if there is a German in Sacheondangga, there is an iron man in Cheolinmun, and he once again stretched out his fist, revealing his achievements to the world.

“Park, Sil, Muhwa!”

Desperate situation.

Even though his insides were in shambles and blood was spurting out of his mouth, and even though everyone was embarrassed by the Emperor’s Sword he had unknowingly used, Namgung Jang-hyeon gritted his teeth.

What’s already happened can be somehow dealt with, but I absolutely couldn’t let it continue like this.

He forcibly squeezed out all his strength and extended his last seconds towards Margin.

“Die!!”

If Margin were to suffer damage as much as he had poured out all his strength, there would be no turning back, but he knew that wouldn’t happen, so he was able to truly pour out all his strength.

He extended his sword with the intent to kill, mixing in even the slightest bit of innate energy.

“One-point defeat.”

As expected, Margin went head-on towards that guy.

He clashed his sword and fist with a single blow that was somewhat similar to Cheonhwa’s one-point strike, neither mocking him nor showing any excitement.

“… … !”

Jeez, jeez!

Kwach!

At that moment, Namgung Jang-hyeon’s sword shattered into pieces.

It seemed as if a crack appeared all at once from the blade to the handle, and then it disappeared, scattering hundreds of pieces of metal in all directions.

If the guy’s sword had contained the sky, it might have been possible to stop him.

However, it was impossible for a sword that resembled the sky to be a mere imitation.

The sky he raised was on fire in the margin of the world.

His power, like that of a wicked man, was violated and broken.

“Hey, stop… … !”

In the dire situation, the Shaolin abbot and other masters all stood up and shouted to intervene, but they were no faster than Ma Jin’s fist.

His fist, which broke and pierced the sword, came flying right in front of Namgung Jang-hyeon’s nose.

“ah……!”

Everyone thought of death.

Even those who did not know martial arts predicted that Namgung Jang-hyeon’s head would burst like a watermelon.

However, the power of the margin stopped right in front of his nose.

By one’s own will, not by another’s will.

He did it even though it may have required him to endure considerable internal trauma.

“I guess it’s over.”

Even though killing each other was forbidden in Bimu, he had the power and position to allow it to be overcome if appropriate punishment was accepted even if they did kill each other.

It wasn’t that he was forced to take it, but he could have used his family’s power to bring death to his rival who stole his lover, but he didn’t.

He just stood there, looking back at the referee, watching his opponent fall to the ground with his legs giving out.

“S, the winner is the Iron Lion Margin Daehyeop!”

The referee quickly declared the winner, hoping that his mind would change.

Namgung Jang-hyeon, who had fallen, was still unable to recall things like anger or shame.

But Margin didn’t see him.

Beyond the stage, he just stares at the beautiful woman standing with a child who resembles him.

It may not be possible to say that Namgung Se-ga’s sword was broken, but it did prove his worth.

The Kwon family, who thought that choosing the Namgung family was the only correct answer, was wrong.

However, it was not a look of blame or resentment towards her.

The gazes exchanged in a very complicated manner, and after a while, Margin turned around and came down from the stage.

His shoulders, which looked somewhat hunched, were hardly those of a winner.

As his foolishness grew, the sadness that had grown larger sat on his back.

The wretchedness and desolation of the man who met the woman he could not protect when he was at his most miserable lingered on the stage for a while.

“Ahem. Those who wish to have the next dance, please come up onto the stage!”

In order to clear the silence in the arena after the shocking defeat of Bimu and Namgung Jang-hyeon, the host hurriedly tried to continue with the next Bimu, but of course, no one came forward.

The Namgung family will decide on how to deal with Namgung Jang-hyeon, who learned the Emperor’s Sword despite not being the head of the household, but after the intense duel between the later Ji-su and the 100 great masters who have witnessed the duel, it has become ambiguous to proceed further.

Because of this, the large sects that were supposed to lead the non-stage battle were just watching each other closely, and someone took advantage of the gap and jumped onto the stage.

“I don’t think there’s anything in particular, but should I try?”

“you……?”

Of course, he was a challenger that should have been welcomed, but upon seeing the newcomer on stage, their expressions once again became strangely distorted.

“There was no such thing as a review index, right?”

Evil Dragon Heavenly Flower.

Because the winner of the late index competition has returned to the stage.
