"You're up Han" Su Yang said to Han Sen who groaned in annoyance. "Is that the guy I'm going to be fighting against? This sucks, at least you got to fight someone who was slightly strong" Han Sen groaned in disappointment, he stared at his opponent on the stage before he sighed and jumped out of his seat, with his hands in his pockets,he walked to the stage where his opponent was waiting. His opponent, Chu He was a sword cultivator, someone who specialized in the way of the sword, he was also the 12th rank so he was noticeably strong, he was as tall as Han Sen, around 6 feet tall, he wasn't as muscular as him though he was well built, his dark hair had been tied to a ponytail behind him, his eyes were sharp like his sword, he wielded dual swords, one on each side, he stood upright displaying his confidence as a sword practitioner. "It's an honor to fight against you Han Sen, I've heard so much about you" Chu He smiled and gave a martial bow of respect towards Han Sen who smiled.
"That was one powerful attack from Han Sen" The outer disciples were once again filled with excitement, as they were once again reminded of the incredible skill and talent possessed by the Top Ten. "Did you guys notice that this was the first attack from Han Sen, throughout the whole battle he was on defense" The disciples eagerly engaged in conversation, discussing another topic that had caught their interest. "Yeah, and Chu Yang was completely devastated by a single attack." "He looked so cool catching that last attack," some of the females said as they engaged in conversation, giggling every now and then as they glanced at a furious Han Sen who had come off the stage and was making his way to the Top Ten seats. Chu Yang observed Han Sen's furious look, which caused the others to back away from him, saying, "Nice move at the end." Han Sen walked past the Top Ten stands, seemingly finished with his spectator duties for the day, with a cold, "Not now, Chu." Chu Yang laugh
'He skillfully disrupted his opponent's balance, leveraging the resulting momentum to lift him off the ground. With precise timing, he harnessed the rebound force to amplify the impact of his punch, inflicting maximum damage.' Felix observed intently as Chu Yang executed his method of attack. While it may have appeared effortless to the casual observer, Felix could not help but recognize the undeniable skill required to execute it so flawlessly. The memory of Chu Yang's final punch, which had shattered the stage with a single strike, served as a testament to the immense power he possessed. Felix sighed, acknowledging that facing off against Chu Yang would be a challenging battle with an uncertain outcome. "Felix, focus. It is time for the next match," Li Bai gently reminded Felix, pulling him back from his thoughts. His gaze shifted towards the stage, where a figure stood opposite Lan Liqing. It was none other than Lu Han, the individual who had been a constant thorn in Felix's
Lu Han approached his seat with a mischievous grin, eliciting fearful glances from the onlookers, and he relished every moment of it. As he reached his seat, Han Sen stepped in front of him, raising his hands to block his path, prompting Lu Han to turn his attention toward him.“You didn’t need to take it that far; what prompted you to do that?” Han Sen inquired with a composed demeanor."With all due respect, my battles are my battles; you shouldn't concern yourself with mine," Lu Han replied with a smile. Though his words seemed courteous, they carried an underlying message that clearly conveyed 'Back off.' "I suppose you're right; your battle is your own," Han Sen chuckled at these words, removing his hand and allowing Lu Han to take his seat. "I'm glad you understand," Lu Han smiled, and just as he was about to take a seat, Han Sen raised his hand once more."Just hope you don't run into me in the next round, because then, there will be no one to interrupt," Han Sen remarked wit
"Now, we arrive at the final battle of this phase, which will decide who advances to the next stage. I am pleased to introduce the last two participants: Li Bai and Han Xiao." The Elder stepped onto the stage, a smile on his face, igniting the crowd with his eloquent words. "You've got this... brother," Felix said, pausing as he looked at Li Bai, whose eyes widened in excitement. He quickly rushed to hug Felix, but Felix pushed him away immediately. "Just do your best; we are here to support you every step of the journey." Zhang He also said to Li Bai, stopping him just before he could embrace him. "Aren't you going to wish me good luck?" Li Bai cast a sideways glance at Yang Mi, who shot him a fierce look in return. "Just don't die up there," Yang Mi finally said to Li Bai, her gaze softening at the sight of his pleading eyes."Hahaha, I love you too," Li Bai chuckled as he made his way down the stands toward the stage where his opponent, Han Xiao, was already waiting.Felix
"FIGHT TILL THE END," Li Bai declared with a smile, his eyes shining with resolve."What?" The crowd was taken aback, and even Han Xiao found himself surprised by the shift in Li Bai's expression."You heard me correctly. Growing up, I watched my brother train until he was too exhausted to move. When he sparred with my father, he wouldn't stop until he was knocked unconscious. I often asked him why he pushed himself so hard, why he didn't just give up and surrender. He would tell me that..." Li Bai said, pausing as his eyes grew teary at the memory of his brother."A man who gives up will never reach the peak; it takes just a single step to fail and one step to succeed," Both Li Bai and Chu Yang remarked in their respective positions."He told me that giving up is like walking a journey of a thousand miles and stopping just before the last step. I used to wonder what he meant, and after losing him, I reflected on that moment and realized I let him down the most. However, I picked myse
“Get up, useless fool, not even strong enough to take a single punch.” A formidable figure loomed above a frail man, who writhed on the ground, clutching his gut in agony. His garments were stained with a mix of dirt and blood, telling a silent tale of suffering."Hehe, he pales in comparison to you, boss; he's just so weak." A red-haired man laughed in the background, his eyes fixed on the scene unfolding before him. He leaned towards the imposing figure, eager to curry favor, while the larger man observed with a sly grin. Meanwhile, the man on the ground writhed in agony, desperately attempting to rise despite the searing pain coursing through his body."Dare to call me weak once more, and this so-called weak manwill unleash on you a fury that will have you calling me daddy." The frail-looking man spoke with such intensity that the other man instinctively recoiled, his heart racing at the sight of the fierce, angry eyes staring directly at him."If your fists were as sharp as your w

If I am not, then are you the one he was searching for?" Felix inquired of the system as he meticulously searched the body.[You are not dreaming and unfortunately, yes, I am what he was after..]"Of course you were what he was after, we have to hurry. They likely don't anticipate this assassin's failure, which means I still have sometime to prepare" Felix cut off the system mid-sentence, knowing time was not on his side. His decades of combat experience urged him forward, leaving no room for questions. In an instant, his instincts took over, hands moving with a swift precision.[Actually, I was going to say that they still don't know that I’ve merged with you so you have to burn down your shop]"Oh, you want to erase all traces and convince them I'm gone?
