322 It Will Be a Lot Funnier! (2/2)

”Are you okay with this, Darten? He is two stages higher than you, after all. If you want, I can carry this Jade Slip of yours, and I doubt anyone would complain anymore.”

Krune shook his head.

”That is not the problem here. Even though there are several Void Breaking and Soul Forging Realms in this group, our group chat was composed of only Divine Soul Realm Cultivators and Demon Beasts. Those above the Divine Soul Realm are only here as protectors of those geniuses. This display is simply to show who between the geniuses here is worthy of being the leader of the group. The Jade Slip has little to do with it.”

Krune then shrugged his shoulders and said.

”But for some reason, he thinks that it would be too much to send someone with a much higher realm than me to fight. Because of that, he entrusted it to his subordinate, who is only 2 stages higher than me. The best outcome will be if his subordinate kills me. That way, he can claim the Jade Slip and the others' approval at the same time. At the very least, he expects that no victor will be found, which is already enough to support his statement that I'm not strong enough.”

Laex then asked.

”Are you confident in your abilities?”

Krune smiled and said.

”I will never look down at an opponent, so you don't need to worry. Although I won't be showing my full strength, I will need to make sure that I leave a good impression on the others. I guess I will show a little bit of what I'm capable of.”

Laex laughed and then nodded.

”Great! I'm looking forward to seeing a good show. You better not disappoint me, okay?”

Krune laughed as well, and they kept moving to the arena.

On Fiarit's side, he received a Divine Sense message from another genius in their group.

”Are you sure he can deal with Darten? Darten's friend could already use Dream Laws, and he said that he isn't Darten's match.”

Fiarit laughed out loud and then answered.

”You are overthinking! That guy called Kiur only won that easily because his opponent didn't know about his Dream Laws, nor did he comprehend any Laws himself. Erventik is different, he does know laws and the existence of the Dream Laws. If they had fought, Erventik would have trashed that Kiur due to their difference in cultivation. Darten probably did the same thing, so it is not like he is really stronger. He simply has higher cultivation, that's all.”

They soon arrived at the arena. Krune and Erventik entered it, and the protection formation closed around them. Right after, an automatic voice appeared.

”No Law Zone arena, no one is allowed to intervene, and any outcome is valid. If someone tries to save the other part, they will be punished according to the City Lord's rules. You may start battling at any time.”

Erventik didn't waste time and took out a Spear from his Spatial Ring. He then covered it with the metal element and used the Earth Law that he had comprehended to strengthen it. He had comprehended the intermediate stage of the Strength Sub-Law and was now using it in full display. He also used it around his body just in case Krune, or better, Darten used Dream Laws like Kiur. This way, he wouldn't be pulled inside the Dream World.

With everything in place, Erventik immediately charged at Krune. He didn't comprehend any Wind Sub-Laws, but he was still a Wind Element user as well. He used his Wind Movement Technique and quickly approached Krune.

It took some time to describe the process, but it all happened in a split of a second. Erventik was planning to take Darten off guard and finish this fight in a single strike.

Unfortunately for him, Krune was his opponent.

Krune noticed that there wasn't any secret behind that attack. In fact, he could even see that Erventik was really underestimating him.

'Well, even if he wasn't, he would still not be able to do anything to me with this level of strength.'

Krune looked the approaching Erventik and said with a Divine Sense message.

”Earth Laws? I know how to play with them, as well.”

Krune then used his index finger to point at Erventik and then to the ground right after.

”DOWN!”

Boom!

Immediately, an immense gravitational pull dragged Erventik's body to the floor of the arena. Outside, the others could only hear the sound of bones breaking.

Earth Sub-Law Advanced Stage, Gravity!

Not only that, but Krune was also using his Earth Essence Sub-Law to increase the power of the Gravity Sub-Law. One must understand that Earth Essence is Krune's only Earth Sub-Law that reached completion.

Erventik tried to use his Spiritual and Elemental source energy to counter-attack the gravity pull, but how could Krune allow him to do that? He increased the gravitational pull even more, and one could hear even more bones breaking.

Krune then slowly walked in Erventik's direction and stopped right beside his head. He then looked back at Fiarit outside the arena and asked.

”Are you sure that sending this guy is enough? Why don't you try it yourself instead? It will be a lot funnier!”
