WHIT 232 - THE FOURTH ROUND
At the Great Light, also known as the eye of the peninsula, next to the elder hall was the great mountain Elderberg, one solely dedicated to the elders of the sect.Currently, it was chosen as the grounds where the fourth round would be conducted at.Standing at the base, the disciples couldn’t even see the top.“I heard it’s 26,000 meters tall, and the atmosphere changes every thousand meters.”“So it has 21 different atmospheres, huh.”“Yeah. This is where the elders of our sect hone their skills.”Some disciples swallowed their breaths.Ruth Raj an elder of the Evergreat sect, and Yurum Bims the pill maker from the Ogvi Warriors sect were talking to the 7108 disciples.“We’ve put 2000 public skill books of all stars at different levels of the mountain,” Yurum said. His hair was like rings with pills stored in them. “All you need to do is pick at least one book and make it back to the starting point. You have a two-day time limit.”The disciples’ hearts skipped from hearing those wo
WHIT 233 - HARD TO GET
Edgar and Fabby couldn’t find another skill book in Zone A. Either they were all taken away, or there were only a few of them placed in this zone to begin with.They rushed to the second zone, ignoring the other battles going around for skillbooks. However, Zone B had an extremely cold environment with blizzards blowing about seemingly aimlessly. They were forced to use drive to cover their bodies, and the heat provided great resistance against the chilling winds. They had to brave through the harsh conditions with great effort, but to their shock, there were seals and penguins living in that region, and they seemed to be totally alright with living in such extreme climates.Multiple polar bears guarded ice caves, and one needed to fight them in order to even check if the caves held any skillbooks or not. Some didn’t consider it worth the time or effort, and the siblings also thought the same.They saw Wren Ayss freezing the feet of the bears and grabbing multiple books from the caves
WHIT 234 - REKINDLED BOND
As Sinta raised her hand and was about to snap, Edgar’s sense screamed something wasn’t right. He instinctively put his hand and his sister’s shoulder and released drive on himself and also covered her. The drive around their heads suddenly exploded into flames and vapor. Edgar and Fabby felt tremendous pain in their heads. Their ears bled, and they couldn’t even scream. While Fabby also released drive and did her best to withstand the invisible pressure, Edgar leaned forward and smashed the ground with his lightning-covered fist, making a thunderous noise in the process. The pressure gripping their heads quickly subsided. “Using sound to drive out sound, you’re quite reckless, boy,” Sinta remarked and wanted to play with them further, but the poison she had dispersed was gathering back again. Not wanting to miss Yoyo’s trail, she hastily left. The siblings, despite how much hurt they were, had to pick themselves up and keep running. Stopping only meant they would perish. Zone E
WHIT 235 - NORA LYTE
In Zone J, a zone with muddy sliding grounds, Tenzai, Azar, and Liam defeated the three disciples of the Stealthy Claw sect and obtained a seven-star Blinding Blade skill.Neither Tenzai nor Liam were interested, so Azar took it. “This will integrate well with my fire skill. I should hide this from my sis, no matter what.”A female entered Liam’s vision. It was Gossini.“Guys, we’ve got company.” Liam warned them. “Should we go after her?”“No,” Tenzai said quickly.“Why? Is she from your sect?” asked Liam. Gossini wasn’t wearing the outer disciple’s uniform, after all.“Let’s go,” Tenzai kept rushing up the mountain. He came across animals that were stuck in the mud, and he threw branches at them so they used their mouths to grip the branches and pull themselves out.“If you have time to waste, do it after you win the round,” Azar and Liam reminded him.“Are you worried that they might attack us when we’re returning? But they might just die before that. Since this round is all about
WHIT 236 - COUNTER VIBRATION
Fabby raised an earthen well just in time to block the opponents. They still managed to destroy the wall pretty quickly.“Flying Spear!” one of them threw a flaming spear, which came pretty fast. Edgar deflected it with his sword and felt his whole arm vibrating. He immediately became full-serious because these two guys were strong. “Get underground, sis! Sky Cutting Arts…” he unsheathed both of his blades and rushed at them, swirling on his feet. “Great Dragon Gale!”A tremendous column of wind formed and blasted both the men away and up into the air.Seconds later, Fabby came out of hiding and was shocked to see the twisting column of wind in the distance. “H-How the heck are you able to create that? It looks like a hurricane. Did you consume a wind-manipulating core without me knowing?”“No,” Edgar replied quickly. “I think the thunderbird core I consumed can manipulate weather. I realized that after I started practicing the book I found in the cave guarded by the two beasts.”Fabb
WHIT 237 - A COINCIDENCE?
Fabby didn’t fall much far compared to her brother who fell outside the crater in Zone P. Fabby didn’t think it was her attack that caused all this. She was still inside the massive crater, so she had no idea how much land her attack had affected.Nevertheless, her whole arm was quaking greatly. It was an almost unbearable pain. It was worse than being electrocuted. She couldn’t even scream but just gritted her teeth as vibrations shook her arm. As seconds passed and she fell down toward the ground, the pain slowly subsided and allowed her to be able to move that arm again.Falling from hundreds of feet high would break her bones if not straightaway kill her. She knew she had to do something.“I can do this.” She used the other hand to create a curving earthen structure and rolled down the structure and made her landing much smoother. Nevertheless, her whole head was spinning as a result. It took her half-minute just to be able to stand and be able to see properly.“Where’s Eddie?”Sh
WHIT 238 - FELLOW DISCIPLES
Tenzai, Azar, and Liam were stuck in Zone O.“What the hell are these vibrations?” Liam vomited from feeling sick. “They are affecting me through the drive.”“How do we even stop these sensations?” Azar also felt greatly troubled. He randomly attacked the ground with his fire attacks, but that didn’t cause any difference.Tenzai, on the other hand, was able to bear the vibrations better than the other two, even though he didn’t have drive. He was standing tall and grinning at their pathetic show.“How the hell are you looking so comfortable?” Liam couldn’t digest it. A foot disciple of another sect was able to do better than him who was one day supposed to lead one of the twelve supreme families? Was there anything more unsettling and shameful than that?“My body is toughened with the beast cores,” Tenzai proudly answered them. “My senses can take this much pressure, I guess.”Kenna Spie flew down and landed in between those three. Her gaze briefly fell on Tenzai before she looked at
WHIT 239 - COOPER ZHA
Many disciples stopped from entering Zone Q as a vast number of bubbles rose out of the ground and exploded upon touching anything.It wasn’t just the number but also the speed with which they rose that intimidated the disciples.If one wasn’t agile enough, they got blasted by the bubbles. Those without strong drive or high durability exploded into bits and pieces. It was just plain cruel they way some died.Edgar and Fabby also had to stop there alongside hundreds. While he wanted to try going forward, his sister grabbed his wrist so he couldn’t. They could hear other disciples talking.“It seems the top ten zones are going to be on another level compared to the rest.”“There must be quality skillbooks waiting to be picked. I wish I was stronger.”The outer disciples and even many of the inner disciples of various sects didn’t dare explore the higher grounds and chose to turn back.“Fighting for skillbooks in these types of environments is just suicidal,” Fabby pulled her brother awa
