Chapter 882: Anything

Ning's plan was simple. He wanted to gather up some resources to build the interior of the secret realm, some treasures to lure them in, and then some reputation to make it worth it.         

    

He could have the first of the 2 easily, but the 3rd one was hard. So, he had decided to go about it in his own way. Along the way, he could also fulfill the first and second plan without having to use system.     

The many spirit stones Ning had gotten from the Prawn family were used up to buy many different types of treasures for his secret realm.      

There were a few that tried to rob him, but he robbed them instead and used that money to buy some treasures too.     

Then, with almost no spirit stones with him, he walked back out of the city and near the gate planeted a post with something written on it in big, bold letters.     

'Anyone who can defeat me in a battle will get whatever skill or treasure they want.'     

Ning pulled up a chair and sat down as he waited for the people that were going in and out of the city to come up to him.     

The people did give curious look towards him after seeing the words written on the post, but no one actually came up to him.     

"Do you think they will come?" Saphandra asked.     

"I can only hope so," Ning said. "I might have to put on some show to prove that I'm  legit though."     

He thought about doing something, but decided to wait and see for now. He would only go with his plan in the most extreme of conditions.     

He had stopped his cultivation halfway through the Immortal realm in hope of getting more people to come for him here. He had to make a reputation for himself for sure.     

As he waited, a young woman who saw his post came up to him and curiously looked at him.      

"What does this mean?" she asked.     

"What do you mean? I don't remember using any hard to understand words," Ning said as he pointed to the post. "Exactly what is says."     

"No, what do you mean by any skills and treasures? You certainly don't mean any, right?" she asked.     

"No, I do mean any," Ning said.     

The girl thought for a moment and looked at him skeptically. "Any?" she asked to confirm.     

"Yes, any," Ning said.     

She thought to test him. "Do you have the Fiend's Thousand Daggers skill?" she asked.     

"I do," Ning said without hesitation.     

"Prove it," the girl said.     

Ning pointed back on the post next to him. "Only if you defeat me," he said.     

The girl hesitated for a bit. She had only come here due to her curiosity and thus had no plan on fighting. Besides, this was such a shady situation that she simply didn't want to waste any spirit stones here.     

"I'm sorry, I don't have any spirit stones to spare at the moment," she said and turned around to leave.     

"When did I ask for spirit stones?" Ning asked to her back.         

    

The girl stopped and turned around. She glanced at the board once again and realized that he wasn't asking for any moeny to start of the fight at all.     

"You take nothing?" she asked.     

"Nope," Ning shook his head.      

The girl frowned. There had to be some sort of catch here. There was no way a man would try and give away treasures and skills without gaining something in return.     

She wanted to turn around and not do anything, but she was too curious. She really wanted to find out if this man in front of her had her family's most dangerous secret art, the Fiend's Thousand Daggers technique.     

"Alright then, I want to fight you," she said confidently.      

Ning smiled and gestured to her, "Just this way."      

The girl followed Ning about 10 steps away and got ready to fight back. "So, what are the rules? No weapons? No attacking quickly? What?"     

"There's just two simple ruless to the match," Ning said. "First, I cannot fight back at all. I can only dodge you. Second, if you manage to move me further than 5 meters in a radius around me, you win."     

"That's it?" the girl asked with a surprised look on her face.     

"That's it," Ning said.     

"And weapons?" she asked.     

"Whatever you want," Ning said.     

The girl wasted no time after that. "I'm coming," she announced and ran at Ning.     

Ning saw her come close and try to throw a punch to his face. However, along the side with her left leg, she kicked Ning on his shin.     

There was a dagger hidden in her leg that she was using to attack him with.      

Ning saw it both, but he didn't move. The punch landed on his face and the kick on his shin. And yet, it was the girl that moved back with a pained look on her face.     

Her hands hurt like she was a mortal who punched a thick sheet of iron. Her feets hurt as well, but it was the loss of her weapon that pained her.     

She looked up and saw that Ning hadn't moved a single step. "How?" she couldn't help but ask.     

"You wanna try again, or do you give up?" Ning asked.     

"I'm not giving up," she shouted and got on the offensive once more. A thousand different daggers appeared all around her all of sudden from inside of her body and she empowered every single one of it with her Qi.     

After that, one after another, she started throwing them at Ning.      

Ning once more did nothing but stand there as that was all he ahd set himself up to do.      

A thousand daggers hit him, but not a single one could affect him. The girl stood with wide eyes and even some other people behind her were looking in surprise.     

Ning looked at the small audience he had managed to gather for himself and smiled. 'Now we're getting somewhere.'
