176 Krune vs. Wang Ting (1/2)

If there was one thing that the Sect doesn't lack, those are duel arenas. You never know when some discordance can be found between so many disciples of the Sect, after all. There are also those who just want to fight for training or test new abilities. Because of that, almost everywhere in the Sect has at least one arena with a protection formation. Of course, those arenas can at most hold cultivators and demon beast of the Divine Soul Realm. Above that, the formation would be too expensive to be maintained all the time.

But any cultivator or demon beast above that realm can keep themselves alive even in the void. So there was no need for arenas, they just have to go outer space for whatever is the reason.

Krune and Wang Ting just so happen to have chosen one of those. Not much longer after that, the elder responsible for the arena also appeared. The Sect can't have disciples fighting to death since they are the geniuses of the entire territory, so the elders put in charge of those arenas are always at the Void Breaking Realm at the very least.

But when the elder received the message about the ones fighting, he was taken aback!

”What? The Sect Master's disciple and the genius of the Wang Clan from the exchange program?”

It didn't take long for the news to spread, and soon, the surroundings were full of disciples and some elders who wanted to watch the show. Everyone knows that Krune is the Sect Master, but they don't know much about his battle prowess. Because of that, everyone was curious to see just how he would perform.

Not long after, even the members of other delegations appeared. They, too, were curious about Krune. Since the Sect Master dared to take a wisp as a disciple, he definitely isn't simple. The only question is how good he is.

In the end, even Lucio and the grand elders that accompanied their members here in the Divine Path Sect came to take a look. None of them tried to stop this battle. In fact, it was a very common occurrence during the exchange training program. Each and every genius of the big four wanted to prove that they are better than the other, after all.

Lucio looked at that and laughed.

”Haha! So the first ones not being able to hold back anymore were my disciple and the boy from the Wang Clan. I know my disciple very well, and I'm certain that he would never start a fight by himself. It seems like this Wang boy is quite the hot-blooded kid.

The grand elder of the Wang Clan that also came with Feifei and Uncle Feng showed an embarrassed face. His name was Wang Tian.

”Sigh. I know that kid too, so I can even understand why he went to provoke your disciple. I hope Sect Master won't mind such behavior.”

Lucio simply shook his head.

The elders of the other powers would never stop those battles since it would also affect their power's face.

---

On the arena, Krune noticed that a lot of eyes came to watch, which made him feel gloomy.

'Why did the elder from the arena wait so long? If he had let us start straight away, it would be already over before anyone arrived.'

But that was only for a little while. That's because Krune also noticed that Feifei was there. Immediately, his eyes lit up!

'Well, it might not be so bad, at least I can show Feifei how much I have improved since the time we first met.'

The elder noticed that everyone that mattered was already there and decided to start the battle.

”Are you two ready?”

Krune and Ting nodded.

The elder then said.

”Start!”

Wang Ting was a Metal, Earth, and Fire user. He immediately created a kind of Spiritual Energy Barrier that had both Earth and Metal elements infused. That was the first time Krune saw something like that. Krune had seen Spiritual Energy Barriers before, but not with two elements infused at the same time.

After that, Ting took out a spear and charged forward.

Krune saw that barrier and immediately understood.

'I see, Metal Element is a branch of the Earth Element, so they complement each other. Not only I need to break through his armor, but I also have to break through this barrier before even doing that.'

Wang Ting then said while attacking.

”Are you not going to take your real form? You won't have the change later.”

Krune then laughed.

”Don't worry, at this level, there is no need for me to go back to my realm form to battle, that would be just bullying.”

Krune could now use up to 50% of Tribulation Lightning power while in his human form, so he immediately did that. The second that Ting was about to reach the wisp, Krune disappeared!

Still, Wang Ting is one of the top geniuses of the Wang Territory, so although Krune was fast, he could still keep track of his movements with his Divine Sense.

'So fast! But speed is far from being enough to get you the victory.'

Wang Ting then stomped on the ground, and immediately, thousands of metal spikes came out around the place that Krune was moving. Krune, of course, noticed that and counter attacked. Just as the metal spikes were about to hit him, they stopped in place.

”Earth Manipulation!”
