Chapter 58: The Spanking Machine

John Brown and the Dao of Spanking versus Chen Zexi and the Dao of Beauty.

Before the announcers voice had even finished ringing, Karvahul was already rolling on the floor a few seats away.

What a pairing! He laughed. Go get her, John!This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

Jack grimaced.

Well? Vivi asked, raising a brow with a smile. Wont you go spank her?

Stay in character, Jack. Stay in character.

Of course I will. I merely hope she is disciplined enough

Grabbing one of his flip-flops and tucking the other in his belt, Jack jumped over the railings and into the fourth sub-arena, where the energy wall that served as the ceiling had opened to let him pass. He landed in a thin cloud of sand.

Opposite him stood a stunning woman. She seemed of Asian descentlike the majority of participantswith thin features and jade-like skin, and she wore a thigh-long, flowing green dress that only accentuated her perfect curves. From her face to the tip of her toes, she was a sight to behold.

She didnt reveal more skin than necessary, nor was she too erotic. That wasnt her goal. Instead, just a glance into her beautiful eyes was enough to make Jacks heart ripple with tenderness.

Human (Earth-387), Level 27

Faction: Chen Group

Hello, she said, and her voice was like silk. She tugged a strand of hair behind her fair ear. My name is Chen Zexi. Please take it easy on me.

She wasnt shy. Her countenance screamed of dynamism, and her playful smile lit a fire in Jacks heart.

Im John Brown, he replied, and if you could stop these games, I would appreciate it.

Games? She smirked at him, then laughed whole-heartedly. Would you that make me a naughty girl, John? Do I deserve a spanking?

Jack had to try really hard not to visibly cringe. His face turned completely stony from the effort. Yes, he finally replied.

She winked. In public, too? Thats pretty bold.

The audience erupted into laughter, as did Chen Zexi. She was just messing with him.

Ill start now, Jack said, unable to take this any longer. He groaned inwardly. These charm-related Daos rubbed him the wrong way; but then again, who was he to judge?

The next moment, he clenched his flip-flop and rushed forward.

Hed seen the Dao of Beauty before. On the first day, another girl of that Dao had been pitted against the metal guythe one with the guitarand lost terribly. It was a Dao that, in System lingo, focused on soul warfare.

Of course, Jack had asked about this before, prompting Edgar into a full-blown explanation of how everything worked, starting from the three main stats and how they worked.

Physical was the easiest one. It was obvious.

Mental didnt exactly make you more intelligent. It increased the speed of your calculations and made you better at visualization. In other words, it made your mind faster and stronger. A person of high Mental would be great at chess, but they wouldnt necessarily be a better decision maker. However, increasing Wisdomone of Mentals sub-statsmeant theyd recognize patterns more efficiently, which should make them better decision makers down the line.

Will was even more esoteric. It wasnt a measure of someones willpower, but the power of their will, which wasn't the same. Willpower was forcing yourself to go to the dentist. Power of will was making your dentist come to youthe power to influence the world around you, mostly through magical means.

As different people progressed through the System, they emphasized different stats. Each of the three main directions focused on battles of different natures: Physical was for bodily conflicts, Mental was used for illusions and corporeal magic, while Will affected the so-called soul warfare, where people attempted to infiltrate each others soul.

The caveat was that, through the Dao, all stats could be used for everything. With strong enough Dao, a warrior could punch illusions and mental invasions away. The Dao itself was a weapon that could dominate all battles.

In other words, the System encouraged specialization, letting you cover your weaknesses with your strengths. Otherwise, every battle would be judged by who struck the first blow!

Jack arrived before Chen Zexi without a problem, then brought his flip-flop back to strike. She flashed him a smile, and he lost his mind.

Suddenly, his heart was in pain. She was so beautiful, so delicate, so passionate. From this close, her body exuded perfect harmony, and her face struck the deepest chords of his soul. Her wide blue eyes filled his world, and her sweet lips whispered promises of endless love. His flip-flop stopped, shuddering in mid-air.

Hers wasnt the Dao of Seduction. Even her previous teasing had mostly been to have fun, not to turn him on. Jack didnt feel the urge to ravage her, but to protect her and hold her dear, to love her truly and wholly. In a way, it was more fearsome than any seductive Dao.

It was painful.

Do me a favor, John, she whispered, leaning towards him. Her hot breath tickled his ear, lighting yet another fire inside him. Resign this fight. Please You are strong. You can win the next one, but I need this.

His brows spasmed.

Come on, John, she continued, almost begging. From where he stood and how she was standing, he could see straight inside her dress, but it felt accidentalthough it obviously wasnt. He had the urge to reach up and lift her dress to protect her from unwanted eyes. I need your help. Dont leave me.

Edgar turned around. He glared at Jack helplessly, then said, Nice spanking. You know this was transmitted around the planet, right? Including the professor.

Jacks face fell. He leaned back and crossed his arms, regretting the fake Dao hed chosen.

The crowd was still buzzing from Jacks fight when the other three finished as well. The announcers voice filled the air again, and this time, she started with the hard match.

Vivi Eragorn and the Dao of Flames versus Gan Salin and the Dao of Insanity.

Vivis head snapped that way. Suddenly, her face was rocky, and her eyes stormy. She clenched her lips. Thats a scion, she said. Crap.

Crap, Karvahul repeated from her side. You sure are unlucky

I know.

She stood, letting Brock rest on the chair. She then removed her coat, revealing the sleeveless shirt underneath. It was simple and red, with embroideries of blue flowers.

This will be hard, Jack told her. He was very interested in this match-up. It would be the first truly high-level fight he saw in the arena.

I know, she replied, flashing him a restrained smile. Any tips?

Yes. He relies on speed but is physically weak. Pressure him from the start, overwhelm him, and dont let him get the initiative. Also, careful; he bites.

Vivi didnt expect that. She stared deeply at him, then nodded. Okay, was all she said. She didnt ask how he knew.

Then, she jumped. Warm air slowed her fall as flames licked the bottom of her hard leather boots, and she landed in the middle of her sub-arena with the grace of a feline.

How unlucky Karvahul repeated, wistfully shaking his head.

What do you mean? Jack asked. The strong people are bound to meet eventually. It just happened sooner for her.

It isnt that. The pairings of each round are random, but weighted. Generally, the officials want to avoid pitting people with many victories against each other, as they risk eliminating future finalists early on. For the preliminary roundsthe ones we are going through nowthe stronger you are, the weaker your opponents But, in the end, there is always luck involved. Hers just ran out.

Jack frowned. He didnt know that. Are scions really that strong? he asked. Maybe she can take him.

Maybe, Karvahul agreed half-heartedly. Well see.

Across them, a slim figure emerged from a high-up, curtained-off section of the spectator stands. Gan Salin wore the same relaxed smile Jack remembered, and even from this distance, his eyes still carried the undeniable tint of insanitymaybe even stronger than last time.

However, he wasnt the only one to emerge from the curtains. Jack saw another figure follow after Gan Salin and lean against the railings to watch the fight.

This man was humanoid, but thats where the similarities ended. He had gray skin, gills on the side of his throat, and cobwebs between his four fingers. A large fin stretched from his back, sharp at the tip, and his eyes were elongated slits. Jack scanned him.

Sharken (Earth-387), Level 45

Faction: -

Title: Planetary Frontrunner (10)

He frowned. Another scion Level 45, too.

The sharken didnt seem to notice Jacks stare, so he turned towards the arena, too.

Gan Salin smashed into the sand like a rock, but he was unhurt. Hello, he said. Sorry, but can you resign? I was in the middle of something up there.

Vivi stretched out a hand. Embers shone on her fingers. Flames flowed down her legs and licked the sand below. Silence, she declared. You have no place here. In the name of my people, I will stop you. I will show the world that scions arent that strong.

Sure, he replied, then squinted at her. Oh, 41? This might be interesting.

Jack scanned Gan Salin, too.

Canine (Earth-387), Level 41

Faction: -

Title: Planetary Frontrunner (10)

Reaching inside his pockets, Gan Salin removed a pair of gauntlets and made to wear them. Vivi didnt let him. Flames suddenly gushed forth, covering the distance between them in the blink of an eye and swarming Gan Salin.

Woah Hey! he shouted, jumping back. Let me

She stepped forward, moving her arms in a circle. The flames shed unleashed obeyed, rising from the ground and hurtling towards Gan Salin like an angry river. He struggled to put on a glove, but there were many latches, and the flames got there first. He was surrounded.

Luckily for him, his back met the energy wall, and pushing against it, he rushed through the flames as quickly as possible. His hair was partially charred, and his shirt was shimmering at the edges. You honorless bitch! he roared. His eyes widened. Froth bubbled in his mouth and ran down his chin. Veins popped all over his face, and his wide eyes got bloodshot.
