On the other hand, Red Skeleton finally gave in as she was hit off from the stage before passing out by a young man with a shamed look on his face.

“I’m sorry that I didn’t have a glorious victory.”

The man apologized to Red Skeleton’s elder respectfully.

“You have a sense of propriety during the fight and this is her limit by far. It’s fine.” The female elder shook her head as she carried Red Skeleton tenderly out of the place. Since both of them did not manage to win the battle, they were dropped out from the throne reserved for the best.

The remaining competition would then decide the best among the remaining three.

Dark Light looked as relaxed as ever. He finished off his opponents quickly, beating them off the stage and injuring them seriously. He was not afraid of anybody regardless of their strength and background as the Star Cloud was the local tyrant in this area. No one was a rival to them and the Sect Elders could only stare at him in anger and were not able to do anything even when his opponents were seriously injured.

Dark Light stood alone on the stage as his arrogance was off the chart.

“A bunch of trash! Are you guys that afraid of coming up on stage?” He stood above everyone as he looked down at the challengers, giving a disdained look at them.

Although all of the challengers were furious at his taunt, none of them dared to go up on stage and challenge him.

“Weaklings. How sad…” Dark Light showed no sign of hiding his contempt.

He then he looked to his side at the young man who had just won against Red Skeleton.

“Do you want to have a match?”

A sense of secrecy flashed across the young man’s eyes as he smiled gently and shook his head.

“I do not wish to embarrass myself.”

Dark Light scoffed as he sat cross-legged and rested quietly.

Then, a mysterious voice came from the young man’s body as it traveled to the audience sitting far away.

“I’ve dealt with the Red Skeleton. The next one shall be Black Jade Dragon.

“Understood.”

A black shadow figure then flashed over the audience’s seat.

*********

“What a boring battle.”

Hell King Blade struck once with his blade. After the black knife took a few changes in directions here and there, it then pierced into his opponent’s chest at lightning speed.

Stab!

Fresh blood was drawn. His opponent was unable to catch up to his speed as he could only see the blade flashed about in front of him and pierced into his chest.

“Next.”

The fatally injured challenger was carried down the stage. He who bore the title the Strongest Black Swordsman had made the challengers lost hope in fighting him. The tactic of fighting him by taking turns seemed to be ineffective as one person fighting him didn’t seem to tire him out at all.

“The challenger has forfeited.” The referee sounded.

The time to challenge had ended and the two who were still standing were Hell King Blade and Dark Light.

This was within everyone’s expectation as they were the representative of the two major sects, Black Blade and Star Cloud.

The highly ranked sects were indeed something else and the result was not out of the norm at all.

“The battle to determine the victory shall be Hell King Blade of the Black Blade against the Dark Light of Star Cloud.” The referee announced again. This would represent the wills of the Three Great Holy Lords and no one would be able to defy it. This was because the referee was a manifestation of the Three Great Holy Lord’s wills fused together.

Then, the two tall stages shifted to merge together.

Heh.

Dark Light opened his eyes and stood up. He adjusted his posture before walking towards the Hell Blade King.

With each step towards his opponent’s stage, black gas started to emerge from his body. It seemed like a fog of black gas was flowing towards the number one black swordsman, Hell King Blade.

“Hell King Blade… hehe. I’ve heard of this name for a long time…”

“Dark Light, the second strongest and youngest powerhouse of Star Cloud.” Hell Blade King’s expression was calm as an enchanting purple-black flower patterned line appeared on his forehead, giving off a cold yet enchanting vibe.

“Rumor has it that your Stellar Hand is very powerful. I wonder if it can break my Hell King’s Exhalation.”

“Won’t you test it to find out?” Dark Light clenched his fist as he grabbed hold of a viscous black gas which appeared out of nowhere. The black gas then turned into a puddle of sticky black glue. As the black glue dripped onto the stage, it corroded holes of various sizes on it.

It was the Stellar Hand, which was famed to be the number one Killing Move in terms of corrosion. Since Dark Light had decided to use his Killing Move at the start of the battle, it was obvious that he was taking this match very seriously.

Buzz!!

Two auras in the form of black gas emerged from their bodies at the same time as it rose up into the sky, piercing through the clouds.

In that instant, every audience stood up.

“Non-falling Level!! They’re both Non-falling Levels!!”

One man shouted.

A person who was just at the disciple level was already at the Non-falling Level. This high level was simply unimaginable!

The invigilators’ face from the VIP seats turned for the worse as a mere single division would elevate to such a level. One could only imagine what level of battle one could see after this! This competition…may exceed everyone’s expectations…

“Looks like we will have a good show…” A middle-aged woman beside Garen squinted her eyes as she reacted.

“Kill!!” Dark Light moved as the black gas around him gathered and formed into a giant black scorpion, which immediately pounced towards the opponent.

Kaboom!!

The Scorpion’s stinger stabbed into the flat surface, creating a one-meter wide crater.

A black shadow figure then shot out from the edge of the crater at lightning speed.

“One slash.”

Boom!!

A black light flashed as the inconspicuous trace of the blade moved across space and instantly reached the side of Dark Light. It then silently cut the Scorpion’s shell opened and pierced its innards.

“Wavering Light!!” Dark Light started twisting his body and rotating at high speed as if he had turned into a gyroscope. The scorpion’s stinger started to rotate quickly as well as they went towards the Hell King Blade’s attacks.

The entire battlefield was covered in black smokes and it was hard to see the event unfolding clearly. Two black clouds of smoke fused together and no one could identify who’s who. They could only vaguely determine that they were still fighting it out from the black smoke’s heated turbulence.

Suddenly, the black gas spread out, revealing the battle between the two men. The speed of them exchanging their blows were so quick that their hands and legs had turned into muddy shadows and one could only see the powerful shockwaves when their fists and legs came in contact.

The black gas had dispersed away by their purely condensed Non-falling Light.

“Extreme Slash!”

Out of the blue, Dark Light turned his body and released a crescent-shaped attack with his black blade, cutting everything in all directions.

“Raining Swallow!”

Hell King Blade countered it by pulling out a black sword to attack it head-on. The sword gave off a swallow-like cry as he mysteriously evaded the Dark Light’s incoming attack with a strange maneuver. The sword then directly appeared behind the attack and slashed towards him.

The black blade took a shift in its direction and bypassed Dark Light’s right hand which was trying to block it, piercing directly into Dark Light’s left shoulder.

Pew!!

Blood was drawn.

“Extreme Slash! Ten times!!”

As Dark Light experienced pain, he erupted as circles of black crescents appeared around his body. The crescent-shaped attack covered everywhere from top to bottom and left to right, turning him into a black sphere.

Kaboom!!

The black crescent covered the entire sky as it spread out in all direction.

In that instant, the entire stage was so black that nothing could be seen clearly.

“Eat my Dark Light Extreme Slash!!” He roared.

A blade which spanned tens of meters tall appeared from the chaos.

“Osprey. Hell King’s Exhalation!” Hell King Blade knew that it was not a good idea to take this attack head-on as his opponent released his full strength. He would suffer fatal injury if he were not careful with his approach. He took the conservative approach and gathered the Non-falling Light around his body and turned it into a light sword of a similar essence.

He then threw the slash in front of him!!

Roar! A tall muddle humanoid figure in a black armor vaguely appeared behind his body and it looked like the legendary mysterious Hell King!

Hell King gave off a deep roar as he pounced forward along with the light sword while releasing a half transparent black gas.

Boom!

The two light swords clashed but Hell King Blade surprisingly collapsed in that instant. He was stunned as he didn’t expect such strength from his opponent.

“This…” He suddenly felt something was wrong with the aura coming off from the opponent’s light sword.

“This is!?” His pupils widened but it was already too late.

The giant black sword slashed across his front body.

Slash!!!

This attack slashed across his body from his left shoulder to his right leg, opening up a large wound.

Blood immediately spurted out from the wound like a geyser!

The Hell King Blade’s Non-falling Light was weakened immediately.

He lost.

He lost in such a strange manner that no one could comprehend it!

The Light Sword carved a deep scar into the ground and it far surpassed the residue strength from the Non-falling Light.

“This is my strongest attack…it can absorb the opponent’s strength and increase my own attack. I called it the Dark Light’s Extreme Slash! Hell Blade King? Hehe. I would be slightly more worried if I’m fighting the Black Jade Dragon Beast.”

He then turned one round as he glanced at the crowd before he stared at the seat of the Scarlet Snow Sect.

“Garen! Come and fight me!” His voice reverberated, and the entire stage trembled.

With a slash, Dark Light pointed his sword at Garen who was sitting on the VIP seat. He pointed at the chairperson of the Scarlet Snow Sect!

The crowd went wild as no one would expect him to challenge the recently infamous leader of the Scarlet Snow Alliance!

Dark Light, who had just gotten out from a concise and tyrannical battle wished to challenge a powerhouse who was a Sect Master Level without any rest!? Has he gone crazy?!

The people from Black Sword Sect among the crowd were still in disbelief.

“Senior Brother Hell King Blade was defeated!!? How is that possible!” The group of junior brothers and sisters’ faces turned pale. The Hell King Blade was considered one of the strongest disciples among them. How could he lose without a clear explanation? It was entirely incomprehensible! How could the last strike give off such a phenomenon!?

“How could he lose!?” Dios’ face paled as he muttered to himself.

The person who was more shocked than him was not the rest but Liz, whose eyes were wide opened as she looked at the battlefield.

“Is that…Accord!!??” Liz’s eyes widened to the point where her eyelids seemed to be tingling in pain. “How is that possible? How is that possible!!?”

She kept looking at the man standing on the stage as she wanted to assure herself he was probably somebody similar. However, based on his attitude and even the minor characteristics, this so-called Dark Light was without a doubt Accord!

“Isn’t Accord a normal disciple in Star Cloud? How could this be?” She tried to recall the time when Accord and Garen separated and the vague sensation of disdain in his gaze. ‘One will never improve if he keeps relying on someone else. You better learn to be independent.’

This was his final word towards himself before he left.

Dios, too, had already recognized Accord. His eyes widened as well as he was one of the two people Liz wanted to introduce to him when they gathered.

“Leader of the Scarlet Snow Alliance, Garen! Do you dare to come down and fight with me!!” Accord’s voice reverberated once more. Everyone could hear his words loud and clear!

“That Garen? Perhaps!!?” Liz and Dios recalled a terrifying possibility as they looked at the VIP seats at the same time.
