"Poison! That's impossible, if there were poison, we would have been able to sense it, so how was it possible that you were able to sense it rather" Bai Wang slammed his fists on the table and got up in anger, his eyes focused on Felix who had a frown on his face."Although what you said may be right, I trust our friend here enough to be able to know that he doesn't take any action without thinking, so I think we should give him the chance to explain" Han Ren quickly got up and calmed the situation down, giving the floor to Felix to explain his actions, but even he knew that what Bai Wang said was quite sensible, how come the heads hadn't been able to sense it and he had."Thank you for giving me the chance to explain" Felix nodded towards the others before grabbing the jar of wine with one hand and then waving his hand for a certain powder to appear in his other hand."This powder is called Yin Yang Cleansing Powder, its primary function is to expose the true appearance of things hid
"The traitor is him" Felix who had been quiet the whole time got up and pointed at Shi Huang, sensing the hint from Felix, the guards rushed to Shi Huang and aimed their swords at him."You!" Bai Wang exclaimed in shock, he had never expected Shi Huang to be the traitor."No..this isn't right, Li Qin" Shi Huang stammered in shock, his eyes turning to Li Qin who coldly glared at him."Die traitor" Li Qin yelled before leaping toward Shi Huang, a dark mist forming on her fist which she aimed at Shi Huang's head, attempting to kill him but something else happened which Li Qin never expected.BOOMThe table was shattered by the attack, by the table were two figures, one was Li Qin whose attack had been nullified and the other was Han Ren who had nullified her attack, behind him was Shi Huang who stood pale with fear, his eyes glued to Li Qin who was also shocked by the conclusion."So the final traitor shows her face at last" A calm and mocking voice sounded as Felix appeared from behind
“Huuuu” Felix’s hand left Li Qin’s head vas he fell to the ground panting and breathing heavily, his eyes filled with shock.“Felix, are you okay?” Li Bai rushed to Felix and supported him to stand.“Felix!” Tang Wei who had been silent the whole time called out before also rushing to Felix who got up grabbing his head in pain, remembering what he had just seen.“What happened?” Han Ren asked with a frown, he was also worried after seeing Felix’s appearance, he had no idea what he had seen but it had no doubt shocked him.“I…..i…” Felix tried to speak but he couldn’t find any words to describe what he felt and saw, the others also gave him time to collect his thoughts, especially his partners who had never seen him so shaken before.“I’m sorry to say that the situation might be out of our hands” After a few seconds of silence, Felix calmed himself down and spoke, his words striking the other like a hammer.“What do you mean?” Zhang He asked wanting to get more clarification.“I mean t
"The necklace is getting brighter, I'm getting closer" Felix muttered to himself, he held the rune necklace of The City Lord's daughter, this helped him locate her easily because whenever he got closer, it glowed brighter.Felix had entered the forest a few minutes ago, but once he did he realized that the fight ahead wouldn't be a simple one, why?This was because once he had entered, he had been notified by the system that he had entered a Chaos domain.What was a chaos domain? A chaos domain was a sort of dimension or domain that disrupted one's senses, hence it was easy to get lost, but the good news was that it was a lesser version of the actual thing, this was because it required mental energy to support it."AWOOOOUUU" From the side, the howl of a wolf sounded as Felix turned to see a group of Red glowing eyes staring at him from the dark."Well, what do we have here?" Felix grinned and placed the necklace away, before staring at the group of Blue Furred Wolves which had final
The teams spread across the entire mountain were slowly taken out one by one, the shocking thing was that no one realized anything, it was done in such a precise way that after even 4 out of the 10 groups had been taken out, there was still no alarm.Felix crept through the dark shadows, using his camouflage skill to the peak, his footsteps and body fully blended into the darkness such that, even when he approached the last enemy from the fourth team, it was only after a dagger was driven through his throat, that the enemy realized what was happening but it was already too late."I think that's enough for now, I can't waste any more time" Felix said after hiding the body of the last enemy from this team, he had made sure to do it as quietly as he could.BUUUUUUUUA horn alarm sounded from the center of the mountain which made Felix pause and turn to the location."They probably discovered that some are missing, I guess that's to be expected, it's time to put my new skill into practice
"Hmm, now where could this woman be hiding" Felix muttered to himself while strolling through the hill that led to the cave entrance, behind him, the bloodshed continued as the wolves massacred their enemies mercilessly, he could literally hear the screams of pain from where he was standing. "Aha, I finally found it, hope there's no trap set up for me" Felix finally arrived at the top of the hill where he was face to face with the cave entrance which looked incredibly suspicious to him. "WHIRRR" A pulse of energy suddenly shot through the ground from within the cave. "That pulse of energy just now, what was that?" Felix's expression changed after sensing the energy, he cautiously walked into the cave to find out. "WHIRRR WHIRRR" After walking into the cave, what met him was a levitating figure whom he recognized immediately, this was the woman in the memory, she floated in the air cross-legged with her eyes closed, Felix smiled and walked towards her but paused midway just as
Felix burst toward his opponents swinging the daggers towards the vital part of the first clone who lashed the whip to block the attack, the other clones took advantage of the situation and took a formation, blocking off all of Felix's escape route. The whip lashed out towards him from all sides making him freeze for a minute as he watched the whips descend on him. BOOM The ground was cracked open by the force of all the whips descending on it at the same time. "Hmm, that's not right, he couldn't have died that easily" One of the clones frowned and muttered before suddenly glancing to the side where one of the clones stood. Within a split second, the clone felt two sharp daggers penetrate its neck before moving across each other, causing its neck to fall to the ground, followed by its body. "That was dangerous and risky, I almost died" Felix leaped backward and said to the rest of the wary clones who were trying to figure out what had happened. Felix had used his skill w
CRACK CRACK" Seeing cracks spread across the surface of the barrier, Felix smiled in contentment, he had finally accomplished the first phase of his plan. "BANG" When the cracks finally spread across the entire barrier, it exploded into shards of light that spread across the vast sky. "ARRG!" Iris who was levitating calmly above suddenly exclaimed, falling to the ground and coughing up blood. "Urrg, you pest! I should have eradicated you when I first sensed you" Iris growled in anger, her eyes filled with hate glared at Felix who cautiously stepped backward, his eyes also stayed glued to her. "Good thing you didn't, you really shouldn't get so angry, at your age, it's not good for your health" Felix replied intentionally touching on the topic of 'Old age' which he had realized that Iris hated so much. "HAAAA!" Iris roared with rage, shooting into the air, her energy blasted from her causing the cave to tremble violently, this resulted in parts of the cave breaking off and fa
“I regret that it concluded in this manner.” Li Bai stepped down from the stage and extended a hand to Han Xiao, offering assistance to help him rise. “Haha!” A wave of laughter greeted him in response, causing Li Bai's hand to freeze and the spectators to momentarily halt their cheers. Why? This occurred because Han Xiao, who typically wore an indifferent expression, laughed—an event that was truly rare. “You’re… you’re laughing.” Li Bai expressed in astonishment, unsure of how to respond. He observed Han Xiao, still chuckling, as he took his hand while Li Bai assisted him in standing up. "It's refreshing to let loose occasionally. You see, I have a unique condition that prevents me from experiencing certain emotions—happiness, sadness, even pain. However, your words triggered something within me; for a brief moment, I felt a glimpse of excitement. For that, I am truly grateful to you, Bai." Han Xiao rose to his feet with a hint of weakness, a smile gracing his lips as he addres
"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
"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
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
'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
"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
"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.
Back on the stage, giant faced off against giant in an epic moment, the two sides had let loose and released their bloodline power to the peak, ready to end it. ATOMIC FIST Lin Huang made the first move, his figure appeared next to Shan Ren where his right fist turned into a fiery rocket which he swung towards Shan Ren whose arm turned into a shield onto which, Lin Huang's fist slammed into creating a shockwave that slammed into the barrier around the stage which trembled and went back to normal. After blocking the attack, Shan Ren saw his opportunity to attack since his opponent was in this close range, he eyes turned brown causing thick mud to rise up from the ground which wrapped around Lin Huang's feet gluing him to the ground. Seeing his opponent now locked in place, Shan Ren injected his fists with mana before sending over a flurry of punches which slammed onto the blue shield condensed by Lin Huang's left side, punches of high magnitude continuously smashed onto Lin Hua
"He won" Wang Xiong was blown out of his mind. "Su, if you were to rank Da Ji based on his current strength, which rank would you put him?" Chu Yang asked causing his brother to pause and think for some time. "I would rank him 4th, just below Han Sen" Su Yang replied and this caused the others among the top ten to glance at him, to some it might seem like an insult but they themselves knew that it was the truth. "So if Felix was able to defeat him, then that means that he's as strong as an early Emperor and also has so many tricks under his sleeves, he could be stronger than me" Wang Xiong frowned at this realization. "For now, I wouldn't be so sure because it looked like he had a skill that made him immune to Da Ji's mental attacks, that's what earned him his victory, and a major part of Da Ji's strength comes from his bloodline ability of his mental attacks, if that is taken out of the question, we could also easily take him out" Lu Han also gave his analysis, and although t
