nBefore Sam could even process those speculations, the cocky young man already started swinging the urine gourd towards Sam's head.

nSam looked at Blaine and the other guards, no one seemed to have any intention to stop. Blaine even looked like he wanted that to happen.

nBut Sam is not really in the mood for a urine shower.

nHe pushed his arms on the ground and slid the side to escape.

nWhen the young man was about to change the direction his hand is moving in, Sam already caught a hold of it and pulled him downwards. He shifted his weight and tried to pin the hand down to get rid of the gourd.

nThe cocky young man was slammed because of Sam's sudden motion which made him feel a bit embarrassed. And to cover that embarrassment, he couldn't help but look at Sam angrily and whisper.

n

"You bloody cripple. Even after your legs are gone, you still don't change do you? How dare you even think that you are worthy of young master Blaine's rival. After all the planning I did to kill you, you escaped with your legs gone.

nJust when I thought at least young master's plan succeeded, he is still showing so much mercy to a low life bastard like you.

nI really wish I could kill you right here.

"

nEven though he just whispered, a lot of people in the surroundings heard it clearly. Sam is sure that even Blaine could have heard it faintly.

nSo, everyone is shocked.

nSam on the other hand was not as angry, but he felt a bit frustrated. He doesn't want to be tangled in Brice's mess. That was why, he was just ready to accept the punishment. But the situation is way too complex.

nAs Sam slipped into these thoughts, the cocky guy got out of the lock and threw the gourd at Sam.

nSam instinctually, tried to use the energy shield.

nBut it failed to activate and he remembered that he couldn't use any other techniques. He didn't just expect that even the energy shield one of the basics of almost all cultivators can be considered a special technique of its own.

nThe gourd hit him and it broke open.

nTo Sam's dismay, the gourd is not a normal one. It is a spatial storage device for fluids. There is a lot more urine inside it than it should have.

nSam is drenched.

nHe closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The pungent smell of urine came off of him.

nPeople started giggling on the side. The cocky young man stood up with a stupid grin on his face.

nSam gritted his teeth and took another deep breath before muttering.

n

"I wanted to go away silently. But ** it.

"

nAs soon as he spoke, he raised both of his fists and slammed them into the ground. The spiritual energy converted into earth elemental energy as it spread towards cocky young man.

nBefore he could realize what is happening, the ground split open and his legs dropped into the cracks.

nHe is almost down to his knees which is not that much taller than Sam's current height.

nWhen the cocky young man tried to get out of the cracks, Sam already leaped towards him with a punch.

n*BAM*

nAn explosive sound came as Sam's punch landed on the arms of the young man. It should have hit the face, but the young man was fast enough to block his face with his arms.

nThe punch didn't have any styled techniques or any refined energy flow, it didn't even have any elemental energy infused within. All it had is sheer brute force and the cocky young man felt like his arm was hit by a charging beast.

nBefore he could react, he was greeted with another punch.

n*BAM*

n*CRACK*

nHe could feel a crack in his arm before he fell backwards. But at least, he was out of the cracks on the ground.

nBut Sam didn't let him recover, he is already on top of him in a mount position. His arms are covered with earth elemental energy and turned to rocks.

n*BAM*

n*BAM*

n*BAM*

n*BAM*

nOne punch after another landed on the young man's handsome face. Whenever he tried to circulate his energy, Sam's hit made him lose his focus.

nEach punch contained such for that he felt like his brain went shut for a brief moment before coming back. It is almost like he fainted for a couple of seconds and all of his bodily functions stopped.

nSam pounded his face. Bone broke, and he bled from every part of his face possible. Teeth fell out and some even went into the throat.

n

"Just because I was staying silent, do you think you can do whatever you want?

"

nSam turned to Blaine as he spoke.

nNobody knows if he is talking to Blaine of if he is talking to the cocky young man, but all of them had a hunch that it is directed for both of them.

n

"How dare you act up in a court martial?

"

nSome of the guards reacted and started moving.

nSam didn't stop hitting the young man, he just kept on punching even though the young man fainted.

nOnly when the guards came to pull him off, did he react.

nRight when the soldier held him, he leaped to the side and caught a hold of the leg of the guard. He used his weight to push the soldier down and moved to sit on the chest.

nOf course, while he tried to do that, he started punching the guard on the ribs and the side of the chest. Breaking ribs with every punch.

nThe guard still held his spear and used its shaft to try and push Sam away by his chest.

nBut used one of his hands to hold the spear down. He used all of his strength to push it on to his chest, before using his elbow to pound on the guard's chest. The armor was pierced in no time.

nThis time the pounding didn't last long, other guards started jumping on Sam trying to attack him and save their comrade.

nOne of them held Sam by his neck from behind and tried to drag him back while two more people went to check their comrade.

nSam gritted his teeth and forcefully hit the other party on the crotch with the back of his head.

nThe opponent fell down on his back along with Sam.

nSam flipped over and took the mount position again. Once again the pounding began.

nThere are very few people in the tent at the moment since Blaine told them to leave. And very few of them are guards. Only very important guards have a place there.

nAs for the rest, they are captains and vice captains of other squads. They didn't dare rashly move. They are beware of taking a misstep. Even though Brice might have fallen from his pedestal, he is still in a higher position than most of them as he is a direct descendant of the clan.

nThey didn't dare take action against him rashly and after looking at how Sam is handling the guards, they are even more unsure of it.

nSam is not acting like a young man who lost most of his future prospects because he lost his legs. He is aggressive, precise, and ruthless.

nJust the way he crushed the crotch of the guard with the back of his head, sent shivers through the spines of most of them.

nBlaine looked at the whole scenario with a frown.

nHe is happy that Sam finally reacted. But the reaction is a bit different than he expected. He did expect that he would fight back, but he didn't expect him to win the upper hand this overwhelmingly. And even the fighting style is a bit different.

nBrice used to be very strategic when it comes to fights. He never really made the first move unless he is absolutely sure that he would win.

nMost of the time, he let the opponent attack and used to tire them out before making a move.

nAnd in his current situation, he should be sticking to that even more. But he is aggressive like a wild beast. He is letting his anger do things. He is way too confident as if he doesn't give a ** about how the fight is going to turn out at all.

nSam bashed the skulls of all the four guards that came. Just like how it was a bit hard for Sam to fight them without his legs, the guards are also a bit caught off guard by the unconventional attacks that are coming at them.

n

"Brice, do you even know what you are doing? This is a court martial.

"

nOne of the judges finally spoke.

nSam looked at the judge and said.

n

"Why the ** didn't you speak up earlier then? If it is a court-martial, then just **ing pass the judgment. I already told you, I don't have anything to say. Just finish this whole farce and be done with it.

nPathetic scoundrels.

"
