"He jumped straight onto the stage..." The esper exclaimed, clearly taken aback. "That is Shadow Walker, the one with the C Rank beast's corpse. Some say he lucked into it and is not all that strong, but now I am starting to question that," another esper remarked. "Oh, it seems fate has brought us together as opponents. It is quite unfortunate for you. Should I swiftly bring this battle to an end or allow you to demonstrate your skills for a while?" Shadow Walker grinned mischievously as he teased Jonny Swift. "Arrogant prick," Jonny muttered with anger as he swiftly fired an arrow. The arrow moved so quickly that most of the espers could not track its movement. Without hesitation, it found its mark in Shadow Walker's chest, piercing through with precision. "Huh, that is it? What was all that cool talk about?" An esper exclaimed with surprise. "No, it should not be this simple," Jonny said with a frown. "Wow, you are quite speedy, but unfortunately, not quick enough," Shado
As they approached one another, each unleashed their respective abilities, resulting in an intense confrontation. MOUNTAIN CRUSH BUDDHA'S PALM Mark swung his saber with great force, unleashing a powerful attack. The aura of a large Ox beast merged with the slash, intensifying its impact. Meanwhile, Myriad Eyes extended his palm, mirroring the movement of the Buddha figure behind him, amplifying the power of his defense. BOOM "It has been quite some time since I last experienced enjoyment of this nature," Myriad Eyes chuckled with a smile as he was propelled backward. "Hahaha, me too" Mark chuckled as he too was pushed backwards, demonstrating a balanced exchange between the two. PALM OF DIVINE JUDGEMENT SACRED RING OF CHAOS The two opponents clashed once more, their awe-inspiring skills causing the stage to crack. Despite their separation, it was evident that they remained evenly matched, effortlessly exchanging moves without any hesitation. "They are treating it like a play
"The next match is between Feng Shui and Jeffrey Lannister," the referee declared. "Jeffery will definitely lose," Jane said with a shake of her head. She had been fortunate and narrowly emerged victorious in her previous bout. "That is uncertain," Mark remarked with a frown, yet he recognized that Jeffery was no competitor for Feng Shui. "It is unfortunate that our paths have crossed. I have some unfinished business with your friend over there, but since I have not had the opportunity to confront him, I suppose I will have to start with you," Feng Shui said with a sinister smile. "You cannot defeat him, you are too feeble," Jeffery taunted, casting a disdainful look at Femh Shui. "I will break your arms and legs and see if you can still talk like that," Feng Shui threatened as he swiftly moved towards Jeffery, who defended himself by swinging his mace to block the punch. "Think fast," Feng Shui exclaimed, swiftly altering his attack mid-motion. With lightning speed, he unleashed
“I will use him to improve my skills,” Felix said with a smile as he looked at Vane. POWERFUL HAND In silence, Vane quickly threw a fist at Felix, who lifted a hand to block it and countered with a punch that Vane surprisingly caught with his own hand. "You have strength, so I won't waste my time with trivial techniques," Vane smirked as he delivered a jump kick that sent Felix flying backward. GROUND STOMP A powerful presence suddenly radiated from Vane, surrounding Felix and reaching the spectators. He drove his legs into the ground and crouched before propelling himself toward Felix, the force causing the stage beneath him to give way. As the attack drew near, Felix recognized the seriousness of the situation and responded with a punch, channeling 60% of his full strength. He had deliberately restrained his rank; otherwise, even a mere 5% of his power would have easily surpassed Vane. When they both collided, Felix was indeed pushed backward. "To gain the upper hand, you must
"What are your thoughts on him?" The Emperor inquired with a serene demeanor, his gaze fixed on Felix from above. "He's powerful and a threat; we must eliminate him," Shadow responded with a scowl. "You mean train him," Alexander remarked while watching Felix with a steady gaze. "He’s concealing his real status," Mei Ling, the silver-haired woman, remarked with luminous eyes. "Hmm, nothing escapes your keen observation; let's find out what your grandson is capable of," Griffin remarked with a smile. ********************************************** "The next match is about to begin; both participants are requested to step onto the stage," the referee declared after 10 minutes. "Huu, let's get this started; I've got three more people to confront," Felix said as he performed a few squats. "If I haven't won after 20 minutes, then I will admit defeat," Justin said calmly, his purple hair flowing in the wind. "Rest assured, this won't take much time," Felix remarked with a sm
"Four steps forward, then a punching skill. Counter: replicate the punching skill, followed by a kick," Justin murmured to himself. Immediately, Felix, positioned directly in front of him, surged forward four steps and delivered a punch. FURIOUS PUNCH Justin, having foreseen this, stepped back and executed the same technique that countered Felix's assault, then delivered a kick to his groin. Felix managed to block it but was still propelled backward. "If he can anticipate my actions before I even make them, what happens if he loses that ability to see my movements?" Felix beamed as he ramped up his speed to 50%. He accelerated, yet it's still not his best; he's restraining himself. "I'll show him the consequences of underestimating me," Justin muttered to himself, lifting his sword in preparation for the strike. As Felix stood just a few feet away from Justin, he abruptly transformed into a shadow and vanished. "Hmm, where could he have gone?" Justin was taken aback; even h
"Hmm, three arrows to my right, two to my left," Felix murmured as he leaped into the air. He did so without hesitation. Five arrows whizzed by his former position and detonated, but by then, he had already evaded danger. Felix contemplated his next move, a conflicted expression on his face. 'I need to finish this battle quickly, but I don't want to cause her any harm,' he pondered. "Being disoriented in combat is a grave error," Felix heard a chilling voice declare as a slender, elongated blade descended towards him. "That was a narrow escape." Hold on, she can wield a sword as well. Felix thought to himself, "Now I understand why she is regarded as the most skilled weapons user among the elite," as he narrowly evaded the sword. "You are quick, but are you quick enough?" Mulan declared as she swiftly transitioned to her bow and released a flurry of arrows. 'I need to finish this quickly,' Felix declared as he veered to the right, charging towards her with all his might before unl
The emperor looked to see who had stabbed him and exclaimed, "You...why." Yes, it's me, and the reason is—well, that's obvious—I'm just doing this for my family. Alexander grinned and gave his explanation. "My father and grandfather encountered prejudice when they first arrived on this continent, but by their own efforts, they established a reputation that allowed us to stay informed about the continent's happenings. "So you've been a spy all along? Did you really believe we were easy targets? I knew we shouldn't have trusted him. Six against one is the situation. Shadow grinned and said. Alexander laughed and remarked, "Actually, it's 6 on 4" as he looked at two bright streaks of light that were getting closer to him. "Ah, sorry we're late; we encountered some problems on the way, but it's taken care of." Their appearance became apparent as the streaks of lights approached; three demons holding swords that were drenched with blood. Alexander smiled and replied, "Oh, actually, we
