Chapter 243 A Battle Between Two Talents (1/2)

”Darren, I can feel that you possess some strange yet powerful force. But still, you're no match for me. I advise you to give up now. As per my current strength, no one below the middle stage of the Wonder Realm can defeat me,” Bowen said conceitedly.

”What makes you think that no person below the middle stage of the Wonder Realm can match you? How is it that I have not heard about this before? How did you know that I'm weaker than a cultivator at the middle stage of the Wonder Realm?” Darren snapped.

Amused by his questions, Bowen, who was always reserved and composed, laughed out loud. ”Although it is possible for you to have learned some powerful legendary martial skills, you haven't broken into the Wonder Realm yet. How are you going to defeat me? The gap between realms is too large. You should know that people with a higher cultivation base can easily defeat those with a lower level,” Bowen said confidently.

”Are you saying that I should surrender? So, you think that you're stronger than me?” Darren asked.

”Yeah, that's what I think. So, what's your decision? Are you still going to battle me even though you know that you will lose?” Bowen chuckled.

”I remember you telling Miss Wang that you didn't believe that you were weaker than her. Now, I want to tell you the same. I don't believe that I am weaker than you,” Darren said before releasing two aggressive, powerful forces.

The forces he unleashed were the sword intent and the blade intent.

”You! I didn't expect you to have practiced the sword and blade skills concurrently,” Bowen said, looking slightly surprised.

The crowd present was also dumbfounded when Darren unleashed the sword intent and blade intent.

Boyce was the only one who didn't look amazed, for he already knew that Darren was an excellent swordsman and blade cultivator.

Even though Violet sensed the overwhelming sword and blade intents, she didn't think that Darren could prevail over Bowen. After fighting Bowen, she had experienced his formidable strength. 'Bowen defeated me even though he didn't use his full strength. Judging by the sword and blade intents Darren released, he is not strong enough to match Bowen, ' she rationalized.

”It is possible that Darren might hold on a little longer than I did. However, I don't believe that he can win,” Violet mumbled as she checked her injuries. She seemed to have nearly recovered from her wounds.

”Miss Wang, you're insightful. What you said makes sense. I bet Darren will not be able to win the first place.”

”Even if Darren doesn't come first, he will win the second place. Those who looked down upon him will be embarrassed. Especially those grand warriors.”
