Chapter 466: Final Verse: Starfall Barrage!
The entire arena trembled.The stone platform split apart, a jagged fissure erupting outward from the point of impact.Dust and debris exploded upward as the shockwave rippled across the field.The crowd collectively held their breath — silence falling for a heartbeat — as they witnessed the power of a blow that came from nothing but human strength.They stood to their feet, gasping and murmuring in disbelief.The air quivered with the weight of shock and awe.No one could comprehend how such a lean, well-built youth could wield that kind of monstrous strength.Dust floated in the air like motes of starlight.Even Duwe’s eyes were stretched wide in disbelief, his breath uneven.“But you said you wouldn’t kill me!” Duwe thought, heart hammering as he leaped back from Oasis, every muscle in his body screaming in alarm.Above, in the noble gallery, murmurs turned to tense whispers.“Body refinement,” Martin Gallado muttered, his eyes narrowing as he leaned forward in his seat. “Without a
Chapter 465: Why’s he wielding a sword?
“That’s more like it,” Oasis said calmly, his tone neither mocking nor boastful — merely approving, as though acknowledging that Duwe had finally found the right spirit.Duwe’s eyes sharpened, his expression no longer that of a nervous youth but of a warrior ready to stake everything.Each step he took forward echoed faintly on the stone arena floor — measured, deliberate, the faint hum of martial energy rippling around his frame.Then — without warning — he bent his knees, and the ground beneath his feet shattered.A burst of dust and debris erupted from the spot where he launched, leaving behind a crater several feet deep.In the blink of an eye, his figure vanished into a blur of azure light, cutting through the air like a streak of lightning.The spectators could barely track him — a phantom rushing across the arena floor, his sword drawn back and glowing with restrained power.Gasps rippled through the stands.What most saw was only an afterimage — a streak of blue flashing towar
Chapter 464: I, Duwe Sparrow, will act differently.
Murmurs reverberated throughout the sanctuary after Oasis’s words — not whispers of confusion this time, but ripples of awe and reverence, like the echoes left behind after a divine sermon.His voice still hung faintly in the air, calm yet commanding, and those who heard it felt as though their very souls had been stirred.“Is this… even a child?” one spectator whispered, his voice trembling with disbelief.“Without a doubt, I’m not that wise. My perception of life as a cultivator… it’s nothing like his.I wonder… if I were to walk my cultivation path with that mindset, maybe… maybe I could overcome my bottleneck.”A few heads turned toward the man, but no one mocked him — because many felt the same.What Oasis had said reached deeper than pride or rivalry; it touched the truth every cultivator feared to face — that strength without wisdom was hollow.Haijo, standing near the center balcony, folded his arms and smirked with quiet pride.He had bet everything on Oasis winning the tourn
Chapter 463: Change your mindset.
The blood on Duwe’s forehead began to seep downward in slow, trembling streams, tracing crimson lines across his face.It ran over his brows, down his cheek, dripping from his chin before falling and blooming like tiny red flowers on the white stone platform below.Now, the rest of the spectators could see it—what had seemed like a trick of the light was now undeniable.Murmurs rippled through the stands, confusion spreading like a wave across the vast sanctuary.Some leaned forward from their seats, squinting in disbelief as if their eyes were deceiving them.“Is Duwe ill… or did he come to the duel already injured? What’s happening?” one man muttered, his voice echoing faintly among the whispering crowd.But those who knew—those who understood the flow of mana, who could feel the pulse of energy from afar—wore expressions of shock so deep it silenced their tongues.Their eyes widened in awe, and that shock screamed one word only:“Monster.”They had seen it—Oasis slicing Duwe’s fore
Chapter 462: One bite, and it’ll be his end.
“Duwe, we are finally before each other. I heard you saying you wanted to teach me a lesson,” Oasis said, his tone calm but sharp enough to slice through the dense tension that hung in the air.His eyes—serene yet suffused with power—locked onto Duwe Sparrow across the wide, stone battlefield.The faint breeze that stirred around him seemed to carry his words, wrapping them with invisible authority.“So I’ve been looking forward to that lesson.”Duwe’s jaw tightened.His heart pounded in his chest, each beat echoing through his mind like a war drum.“Mmh… I might be managing my cool, but I’m so scared that I can’t even think straight about what to say,” he thought bitterly, sweat trickling down his temple.“And it seems he heard my whispers with Hujo… Damn it, even that?!”From where he stood on the far end of the platform, his breathing grew uneven.His gaze flicked briefly toward the upper gallery where the great figures sat—his Elder, Akaina Hajin, among them.The weight of their p
Chapter 461: Did you say your farewells?
“Once again, the heavens have blessed us with a wonderful morning—a morning to witness this generation’s brilliance,”a melodic voice bloomed through the air, resonating across the Grand Sanctuary of Greatness.Familiar to those who were in the auction.It was Marcellia Valmorra’s voice.Her flawless beauty radiated like divine light as she hovered gracefully above the sanctuary, the golden sun framing her silhouette. The sound of her voice alone commanded silence—gentle yet filled with authority, melodic yet carrying a hint of untouchable might.Beneath her, the grand coliseum stretched endlessly, a cathedral of stone and light. Tens of thousands filled the stands—disciples, nobles, merchants, and great sect elders—each one raising their heads in reverence at the sight of her.Without pausing, she continued, her amber eyes sweeping across the sea of faces below.“Without wasting any time, I welcome all present. The tournament has now reached its last sixty-four, and the third round
