Chapter 101 - 100.2 : Initiating The Plan (2/2)
The Undead Race had a lich at the Peak of the Immortal Realm, the lich looked like a skeleton and wore a grey robe, from the beginning of the banquet, he didn't speak or move, he was even more bizarre than Aborak.
The Doom Bringer Clan had the youth that came with Meyzu, the youth had a sword on his back and red-hair like Meyzu, he emitted thick killing intent and stayed silent with his eyes closed since the beginning. The Lightning Fox Clan had the green-haired and fairy-like girl and last but not least the Royal Cobra Clan which had a woman. It was a woman in her twenties with an alluring body. She wore a tight dress and sat next to other girls while enjoying some dessert.
She completely ignored what was happening on the arena and simply chatted with the other girls, even her outfit was not meant for fighting, clearly, she came here not to fight with others but to enjoy her time.
All of these geniuses were at the Peak of the Immortal Realm and they represented their own faction.
...
After Arthur spoke, no one jumped on the arena, the juniors just gazed at him with envy and curiosity. They were intrigued by his identity, although they didn't understand how he still made Buo admit defeat.
”Fuck! Senior Buo just admitted defeat because he was injured from the previous fight, who does this punk think he is? I'll take care of him.”
A short youth jumped from the crowd, he wore the outfit of the Doom Bringer Clan and held a gold scabbard with a short sword sheathed in it.
He was displeased by the previous fight and wanted to regain the little bit of face his clan lost, all the juniors felt he was courageous but extremely stupid, especially the elders.
”It seems Brother Meyzu's clan disciples are talented and courageous.”
The praising words of Bai LIngyue were like needles piercing Meyzu's ears, he was angry because of Buo's defeat but here is another idiot jumping to his doom.
”Let's begin!”
As he said that, the youth unsheathed his sword and leaped at Arthur without even waiting for his answer. A weak-looking Blood Ball was conjured from a blood gem engraved on his gold sword, the blood ball flew toward Arthur's head.
The youth followed that by a slash of his sword from afar which created20-inch blood snakes that swirled around the blood ball and increased its speed.
Seeing this, Arthur didn't budge, the huge lightning spark above him came down and with a speed faster than the incoming attack, it struck the blood snake and the ball, shattering them instantly. The yellow lightning didn't stop as it hit the youth's chest before he could react. The poor youth was sent flying out of the arena with a bloody wound on his chest, his clothes were burned from the attack and blood flowed out from his injuries.
Arthur purposely avoided any vitals but he still broke some bones and dealt some damage to the youth's body. He waiting for the right time to begin the plan.
No one was surprised when they saw what happened, it was kind of expected, although most of them were confused on why Buo admitted defeat, no one thought Arthur was weak and simply jumping on the stage like that youth is totally idiotic.
The lightning spark returned to where it was an kept floating there, if Arthur wanted, he could make it bigger but he decided to just let it be like that. He was not planning to display all his power.
The atmosphere returned to its usual silence, no one spoke or went to fight Arthur, which made it awkward. After some time, a person could not bear it and leaped on the stage.
It was a youngster with a golden-robe and handsome looks, he was Young Master Yun who Arthur met in the Treasure Pavillon.
”It's time for the big shots to fight right now, why don't you go down from the arena?”
Yun was not planning on being respectful toward Arthur, so he cut through the chase and said what's on his mind. Arthur's presence made thing awkward and stopped the fights since that's the case, the fight between the geniuses is going to begin so he told Arthur to go back and it was not his place and he was not worth fighting.
However, but what he heard next made Yin almost cough out blood, his face turned ugly and his smile disappeared.
”Why should I? Defeat me and I'll step back from the arena, that's how things are, or perhaps you can't do that?”
Yun was not expecting Arthur to retort like that, so he remained silent for a bit before grinning and arrogantly saying
”Fine! It'll be done in a second, let's not waste our time!”
As he said that, Yun took out golden black gauntlets from his storage. The gauntlets were big and had some spike on their edges. Yun didn't waste time as he hastily wore them and took a bizarre fighting stance. He was overconfident in his win but he simply was not going to fight bare-handed against Arthur, he saw what he was capable of and had to be a bit serious.
A golden light emanated from his robe as his long hair fluttered in the wind. His appearance was dazzling as it made many young maidens heart beat rapidly.
Seeing that Yun was going to attack, Arthur secretly took out a blue talisman from his storage and stuck into his wrist under his sleeves, no one was able to see his actions as it was in a very secretive and fast manner.
After doing that, Arthur shifted his gaze to Yun and displayed a provoked and sneering gaze, as if he was saying 'Come on! Attack me, I'm waiting for you..'
Yun rushed at Arthur while punching out with his gauntlets, various golden energy bursts were created by his countless punches, although he was still far from Arthur, he kept punching and each punch created a strong golden energy burst that was aimed at Arthur. Clearly, he was planning to finish this from the start.
Arthur didn't hesitate as he circulated the lightning spark and created 4 feet lightning shield planning to block the energy bursts. He also moved from his position and made his way toward Yun while making a huge detour to avoid the energy bursts.
Two small needle-like streaks of lightning were launched from his fingertips, their target was obviously Yun's body, precisely his two eyes.
Arthur's speed was a bit slower than Yun but in no time, the two of them arrived in front of each other and clashed. The two lightning sparks were shattered by Yun's gauntlets, after blocking that, he rooted his legs into the arena and punched out with immense strength.
Blinding golden light was emanating from his gauntlet as a strange looking seal appeared in front of the gauntlet. A strange looking lantern appeared on Arthur's left hand, he waved around and placed it where the gauntlet was going to hit him.
The grey looking lantern was shaken a bit by Arthur's hand and yellow fog came out of it, the process was very fast and by the time the golden seal hit Arthur's chest, the condensed yellow fog was already around it.
Arthur received the attack head-on, blood came out of his mouth as he was sent flying, but before he did, he clapped his two fingers, making an unnoticeable sound and at that time, several thunderclaps rang out in the arena.
The thunder streak out the condensed yellow fog and all its surroundings, including Yun, who was happy that he landed his hit but the happiness disappeared as the pain followed, the thick thunder explosion sent his body flying high-up in the air, some blood leaked out of his lips as he fell to the ground and slowly stood up with an ugly face.
The item Arthur just used was a Mystic Ranked Item that stores Lightning energy and condenses it, then when released, it transforms into thunder explosions that deal tremendous damage.
The only reason Arthur was sent flying is because he acted it out, such strike from Yun would not hurt him normally, not after he started practicing the Dark Star technique, but he nonetheless acted as if he was injured and spit some blood.
After stabilizing his body, Arthur rushed at Yun yet again with several lightning balls circulating around him, they formed a star-shaped lightning with each ball on an edge of the star, then it started increasing in size until it was the size of a normal human.
Arthur pushed his hands on the star-shaped lightning and with 'bzzt' sound, it flew with an extreme speed at the panting Yun.
The golden-robed Yun was surprised by Arthur prowess, seeing that another attack was coming at him with fast speed, he roared and punched the air yet again, but this time you could feel the arena's ground shake.
A bigger golden seal was formed, this time it emitted an incredible pressure as it struck the star-shaped lightning and shattered immediately.
Seeing this, Arthur's eyes sharpened, he charged at the huge symbol while waving around a long lightning whip in his hands, the last thing the spectators saw was a bright flash before Arthur's body was sent flying out of the arena and Yun staring at it with a daze.
After a few second, Yun grinned and crossed his arms in a proud manner as if he expected this outcome.
