41 Battle (1/2)
---
No one said a thing. Old Lee, Jackson and Arnold calmly entered the opening that Raven made and walked in front of the caged criminals.
Their eyes were filled with killing intent, the criminals prepared themselves since they knew that a battle is going to be really unavoidable.
”Calm down everyone, there's only three of them while we outnumber them. Just focus and we will get through this alive.”
As expected of the chosen leader, Tiger calmed his nerves down and uplifted the spirit of his team. This proved to have an effect as the team quickly sobered up and took out their weapons.
But the really hit them rather hard on this one. Jackson and Arnold alone greatly overpowered their forces. How so? It's because both of them are peak Senior Knights.
Skin Toughening, Muscle Training, Organ Refining, Bone Forging and Marrow Cleansing. After an individual reached these stages, he/she will be considered as a 'Fighter', however the path only starts at that stage.
What comes after the Fighter stages are the 'Knight Stages' which consisted by Soldier, Junior, Veteran, Senior, Knight, Oath, and so on stages.

Tiger himself is a 2-star Junior Rank Knight, while his team just barely touched the Soldier Rank. Arnold and Jackson are both 4-star Senior Knights, which could literally take on a handful of them and won't even be hurt.
As they the two flashed their cultivation bases, Tiger and his team paled in horror. The pep talk that Tiger did before hand was completely swept away. What rotten luck was this? There's tons of people that could be present in this current situation but they just have to be these people who could literally shove their faces in dirt without even breaking a sweat.
Arnold and Jackson didn't bother with useless talk, both flashed forward and reappeared in front of the team. Arnold held a Morning Star on one hand and a Tower Shield on the other. As for Jackson, he didn't have a shield but held out two daggers which tips are covered with dark hue, obviously poisoned.
Bear, Boar and Monkey bore the attack of Arnold. Bear saw the Tower Shield descending towards him. He hurriedly crossed his arms on his chest to tank the attack since he saw Boar and Monkey using the current situation as an opportunity to attack. What they didn't expect was Arnold feinted his attack.
Before his shield could even land on Bear's body, he stopped and lifted the Morning Star to smash the metal armors of the attackers. The silhouette's of Boar and Monkey flew and splattered on the walls of the cage, T-posing as they slid down unconscious. Bear's eye twitched but soon found out that his slight distraction was huge mistake in a high level battle.
As he turned around to face Arnold, he saw that the Tower Shield was already on his face and it didn't even took a second before hitting him square in the face and cause him to fly away and experience the same situation as Boar and Monkey had.
Meanwhile Snake, Mantis, and Eagle were all lying on the ground, weakened and bleeding profusely. Jackson made a quick work out of them. He disappeared in plane sight, and slashed their leg tendons with poison covered daggers. The poison wasn't anything strong, it will only cause them to be paralyzed for a whole day while preventing their wounds from closing up. If these three weren't treated immediately they will die due to extreme blood loss.
As for Tiger and the Worms? Well, they didn't even have time to lift their weapons up to battle. Of all the people they have to underestimate, they chose Old Lee. A huge mistake.
The instructor just gently appeared in front of them, twisted their necks in a weird position and there we have it. Three unsuspecting criminals, done in by a kind looking old man.
”Holy…” - Paul.
”Shit…” - Ellen.
On top of the roof, were Raven and his crew were, all of them saw the entire thing happen. It was a quite a spectacle to be honest. Their horizons were broadened by a huge margin even though the fight was over very quick.
