The two disciples from Sacred Wrym Summit moved with lightning speed, swiftly dislocating Predator's arms. In an instant, he was left powerless, his arms hanging limp after just one clash.But Predator wasn't about to give up. Despite his dislocated arms rendering him immobile, he still snarled and lunged at one of the disciples with his mouth wide open.The disciple held his ground, and a shimmering golden light enveloped his body.With a sharp impact, Predator rammed headfirst into the golden light and staggered back several feet. His face was a mess of blood and flesh, a few teeth knocked loose, leaving him dazed and swaying."What was that golden light just now? It looked so powerful," Ruby remarked, her eyes widening with surprise.She was familiar with Predator's strength. Even without his transformation or in his weakened state, he could still hold his own against formidable opponents like Quincy.Yet, his two attacks were effortlessly blocked by the golden light surroundi
Caleb's impressive techniques left the martial artists in awe. They couldn't believe that two simple pieces of paper had such immense power, effortlessly subduing the Predator."No way! He took down the leader just like that?" Ruby's eyes widened in astonishment. She hadn't taken Caleb seriously before, thinking he was too young and probably not very strong.However, the outcome surprised her greatly. The ferocious Predator was already knocked down before she could even process what was happening. Throughout the whole ordeal, Caleb hadn't even budged from his spot. He just casually waved his hand a few times."So this is the strength of the new generation genius from Sacred Wrym Summit? Truly remarkable!" Miles exclaimed in admiration. Sacred Wrym Summit was renowned for its array of esoteric techniques, including Glow Incantation, Stormcraft, and Divine Talisman. However, mastering any of these was extremely difficult.Most disciples of Sacred Wrym Summit primarily focused o
"The offer from Sacred Wrym Summit sure is tempting." Dustin nodded in agreement. Then, he suddenly said, "But I'm more interested in the person in front of me, so I'll have to apologize to you all."Everyone was shocked to hear this, finding it difficult to believe. They couldn't understand why Dustin would refuse such an opportunity.They found it baffling. It was an opportunity that could change someone's fate. Opportunities like this didn't come knocking often, yet Dustin brushed it off like it was nothing.They couldn't help but wonder if he had lost his mind."What's wrong with you, Dustin? Why would you turn down such a golden opportunity?" Miles asked, bewildered.If it were him, he would be jumping for joy. But Dustin's refusal seemed to go against the natural order of things, leaving Miles scratching his head."It seems Dustin thinks that the value of that assassin leader is higher than the favor from Sacred Wrym Summit," Dalen remarked thoughtfully."What? What valu
Miles eagerly explained, "Don't let the thin yellow paper fool you because it holds immense power. Once it latches onto someone, they'll feel like they're being crushed by a massive boulder. "As long as this talisman remains intact, that person won't be able to move a muscle for the rest of their life!""Wow, really that incredible?" Ruby widened her eyes in astonishment."Absolutely! Though I've only heard of it and never seen one. After all, there are very few who can wield the Summit Shift Divine Talisman," Miles said."Should we help?" Ruby asked."If even Mr. Rhys can't budge it, our efforts would be in vain. Let's just wait and see." Crystal shook her head.They hadn't reached grandmaster level, so they weren't qualified for this kind of confrontation."Mr. Rhys, how about letting the two of us give it a try?" Laurel and Willow stepped forward, offering themselves up for the task.Wary of the potential for deception, they decided to take the initiative and offer to go
"Let's try again!"The Sacred Wrym Summit disciple's words failed to dissuade Laurel and Willow.The sisters exchanged glances before unsheathing their swords. With swift motions, they targeted the Summit Shift Divine Talisman on Predator's back.Despite their persistent efforts, they quickly realized that removing the talisman was impossible. Thus, they redirected their efforts toward destroying it.After all, it was just a talisman. They were confident that breaking it wouldn't be any more challenging than shattering darksteel.When Laurel and Willow's swords struck the talisman, it instantly ignited with a brilliant burst of yellow light.A powerful shockwave erupted in a flash and shattered the swords upon impact. The sheer force of the blast sent the sisters flying backward, causing them to cough up blood.Stunned and bewildered, they exchanged incredulous looks. They hadn't expected that such an ordinary-looking talisman could withstand their attacks.It was truly unbelie
"Huh? How is this possible?""Weren't we just saying that the Summit Shift Divine Talisman couldn't be removed? How did he tear it off like it was nothing?""Well, that's unexpected! What exactly did he do?"Everyone was dumbfounded as their eyes fixed on the talisman in Dustin's hand.The Summit Shift Divine Talisman of Sacred Wrym Summit was revered for invincibility. Its strength was likened to a mountain, seemingly impervious to human efforts. Any endeavor to forcibly remove it was typically met with severe backlash. It was a lesson Laurel and Willow had painfully learned from their previous attempts.Yet, Dustin effortlessly tearing the talisman off went against all expectations. It was truly baffling.Ruby asked, "Wait, what just happened? It was torn off just like that? Looks like the Summit Shift Divine Talisman you mentioned wasn't that impressive." She was bewildered. She had believed in the talisman's invincibility, but now, her faith seemed misplaced.Dalen's mou
The overnight uproar was soon forgotten in the light of day.The following morning, Sacred Wrym Summit hummed with activity as people thronged in.It was the much-awaited day—the official kickoff of the Combat Tournament.Participants and onlookers flooded the area. They were eager to witness something truly remarkable.This unprecedented event had become the talk of the martial world. It attracted representatives from all major sects and guilds.Even those not participating in the tournament found themselves drawn to the excitement.Because everyone knew this was a rare chance to witness extraordinary talent, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not to be missed.The Combat Tournament at Sacred Wrym Summit lasted five days. During the initial three days, Groups C and B participants would compete. Following several rounds of elimination, the standout fighters earned their ticket to join Group A. They would then confront the group's brightest talents.By the fourth day, the tourna
"Speaking of which, those disciples from the Esoteric Sword Sect are really worth paying attention to," Miles mused.He rubbed his chin and looked at the three figures in black robes. "Their sword mastery technique is both mysterious and powerful. "Beheading enemies from miles away is child's play for them. And challenging opponents above their level? That's just routine. "If only I could learn their technique, I reckon I could make a name for myself in the martial world."Crystal chimed in, "The sword mastery technique is their best-kept secret. It was never shared outside their sect. Our elder once tried to exchange it with three of our top secrets, but they refused." She sighed and shook her head.The Sword Union was unwaveringly dedicated to anything sword-related. Whether it was renowned blades, ancient sword manuals, intricate techniques, or swordsmanship principles, they would spare no expense in obtaining them."I happen to know a thing or two about sword mastery te
