[Narrator Voice: Li Bai] [I met Chu years ago, back when I was still a kid, our first meeting was funny actually, and it was because of what happened that made me friends with him so quickly] [I remember it like it was yesterday, it was 5 years ago, back in my hometown, we were having our Yearly Tournament, and things were going smoothly] Two figures clashed on a huge stage, one looked exactly like Li Bai, except that he was a younger version, the second also shared a striking similarity to Li Bai, the hair and face but there were clear differences, the second was older and had a more longer hair which glowed more significantly than that if Li Bai. Although the battle was interesting, the spectators could see that the younger version of Li Bai was being suppressed by the attacks of his opponents. "You got stronger Bai" The older version of Li Bai remarked while blocking the numerous attacks of his opponent whose attacks turned more frantic after hearing those words, seeing t
[After that battle of my brother with Chu Yang, I had full confidence in my brother's words, I knew that if I had been in that situation with my brother, I wouldn't have come out without at least a few broken bones, but Chu Yang had only suffered one hit and had even inflicted an injury of his own] [Years passed and we grew into fine young men, from that moment on, Chu Yang with his friendly nature grew closer to my brother and I, he and my brother had more bouts and I watched every time, learning something each time they fought, My brother was quick to adapt but Chu Yang always had new applications of Mana that we had never even heard of before, soon enough we were as close as brothers and with our parents being stepbrothers, it further strengthened our bond] [Everything was going well until one day, Something happened that changed everything between us] [Time: 1 year ago] "Did you hear about the new Sect gaining popularity, I heard it's a four-and-a-half or even a five-star
A group of 5 consisting of Su Yang as the lead, Han Sen, Wang Xiong, Lu Han, and Felix walked through a dark cave, there was only one orb of glowing light leading them and a fireball which Felix who was the rear had conjured. "We're getting closer, get ready for anything" Su Yang said as they got closer to where the narrow cave branched out into a bigger open cavern. Felix took a deep breath and grabbed the sword by his waist, his eyes turned serious, and the others around him also turned serious. "We're here" Han Sen muttered, he glanced at the huge space before him, there were light crystals in the wall which illuminated the cavern and gave the group a full view of the cave. The first thing the group spotted was the three eggs positioned atop an altar that had a large pond that took almost half of the space in the cave next to it, next to the eggs stood a statue holding a huge sword, "Where's the beast?" Wang Xiong asked after looking around but no sigh. "One" Su Yang s
"Death's gaze" Wang Xiong's eyes turned to the Spider who froze for a split second and then shot out an arrow made of web toward Wang Xiong who swerved to the side, narrowly dodging the attack. Han Sen dashed to the side of the Spider and threw a punch which struck one of the arms of the creature. THUD A dent was left in the arm of the Spider where Han Sen's fist had struck, without wasting any time he quickly leaped backward and avoided the razor-sharp claw that swung down onto him. WHOOSH "CHAINS OF HELL" Several chains shot out from below the spider which wrapped around it and bound it making it unable to move. ETERNAL ABYSS Black mist shot out from Lu Han's hands, it slowly coagulated into a large black skull that released a creepy aura that made Felix who was some distance away frown, he could feel the depressing and emotional feelings gathered within the skull. After properly forming, the skull shot into the body of the spider whose body trembled slightly before
"I'm glad to see you back safely, you got here just in time, five minutes left to end this challenge" Chu Yang stepped forward with a smile and said to the group who rested catching their breath. "I'll take one orb and you take the other, the last will need to be decided by the rest" Su Yang said handing one egg to Han Sen who had reverted to his normal appearance, he then turned to the three remaining and said, his eye specifically on Felix as he spoke as if wanting to say that he deserved it the most. "I think Han Sen deserves that egg, he played a major role in suppressing the last monster" Felix said humbly with a smile, his words not only shocked the group but also those who hadn't taken part in the adventure, especially his friends who knew him the most. "You sure about this?" Su Yang asked in surprise, he had expected Felix to claim the orb since he had somehow managed to land the last blow which took the life of the beast. "Yes I'm sure" Felix replied making Li Han fro
"YOU!" Lu Han literally had to be held back by his friends as he roared in anger, his anger made his veins bulge, making him appear like he was on steroids, if looks could kill, Felix would have died a thousand times from the look he was getting from Lu Han but he only gave him a grin of mockery making him even more pissed. "When had he switched it?" Su Yang turned to Han Sen by the side who was also as confused as him, as sensitive as he was, he hadn't realized that Felix had switched the Orbs. "This guy, tsk" Chu Yang smiled and clicked his tongue, he wasn't the least bit angry that Felix had surpassed him, and with only a measly 100 points, he was rather impressed and expectant, he needed someone who could challenge himself and Felix was exactly that. "Hahahaha serves you right" Wang Xiong laughed and grabbed his stomach in pain for laughing too much, he enjoyed mocking Lu Han whose anger shot to the roof. "Hahaha, you trickster" Li Bai jumped onto Felix, almost pulling him
It was a new day in the Sect and the Outer Disciples were hyped up like they were high, why, you might ask? . It was because today marked the start of the Third stage of the Outer Court Tournament, the combat stage where selected disciples go all out to prove who was the strongest, the selections had already been done and the disciples who had not qualified and those who had qualified were all anticipating the start of the first phase. "Wooo, let's go" Li Bai screamed out together with the cheering crowd, he sat in the stands for the spectators, together with Zhang He and Felix, and Yang Mi who they had found out was an Inner Disciple, of course, this shocked them more than anything, but after thinking it true, it made sense partially because even though she was always with them, she never actually put herself into any given situation, she only spectated from the side, this was the rule given to all those at the Inner Court and above, they were strictly forbidden to interfere in
"Are you both ready?" The Referee asked Tie Butian and Su Yang who stood some distance away from each other on the stage. "Ready" They both replied at the same time. "Let the battle commence" The referee announced stepping off the ring. Su Yang calmly stared at Tie Butian whose expression was as serious as ever, he gripped his staff tightly, lightning flickering across his hand and the staff. "Last year, I couldn't last more than ten moves against you, but this year is going to be different, I've trained my lightning to the next stage" Tie Butian said confidently striking his staff onto the ground causing sparks to fly out in all directions. "Hmm, that's nice" Su Yang remarked with a nod which made Tie Butian's eyes twitch, how could he give such a plain answer like this? "I'll make you acknowledge me" Tie Butian gritted his teeth, his hair flickering with lightning, the next second, he disappeared dashing forward at an insane speed, in an instant he had arrived in front o
