"BEGIN"
The moment those words left Elder Thorne's mouth,
BOOM
"Move!!"
"Take that! You bastard!"
"Heyy!! That bastard is hiding in the crowd! Take him out first!!"
"Oye. Why is your sword touching my ass!? WAIT! You fucker, that's not your sword!"
It was utter chaos. The disciples clashed like desperate animals, sword clangs, loud shouts, and jeers. Betrayals all seemed common.
RUMBLE!!!
BOOM!!
Suddenly, a thunderous blast echoed throughout the colosseum! Turning towards the source of the explosion, they saw the 49th platform crack!
"W-WHAT!?"
"H-HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?"
"E-EVEN THE SPIRIT REALM CULTIVATORS!?"
All fights and duels instantly halted; even the assistant elders were no exception. They all stood there, gawking at the unbelievably ludicrous thing they had seen in their entire lives.
On platform 49th stood a tall, handsome man. He was standing in the middle of the platform holding a disciple by his neck in the air. His violet eyes gleaming in amusement.
But that wasn't the most shocking scene; around him lay hundreds of bodies, all unconscious and froathing. As if an electric current had passed through their bodies.
From Body Structuring Realm cultivators to the peak Spirit Realm cultivators. No matter the cultivation realm, all lay down, unconscious.
"Heh, what were you saying, bitch? I stay away from Vivianne? Brat, heed my words, I'll find your mother and fuck her in front of you!"
The tall, handsome man laughed, but his words shocked the entire crowd.
"H-he is so bold! T-there are Elders watching this from above and he dares to say such depraved words!?"
The exact same words rang equally among all the disciples and the assistant elders. But then one of the female disciples muttered out loud.
"Hey, isn't he The Rising Sword!?"
High above the colosseum
"Well…"
Yueshan was speechless, but it was not the entire reason she was shocked. It was the strength these guys displayed.
Not just her, the entire ring of Elders was silent. Obviously, they all saw what had happened.
"H-he is so handsome! Yueshan, you sly bitch! After all these years of staying single, you hit the fucking jackpot!!!"
Turning towards Yueshan, she shouted, her voice almost sounding wronged and indignant.
"Nyla…say one more word, see if that mouth of yours could open anymore…" Yueshan muttered in a low, dangerous but…embarrassed tone?
"Where did he come from? Judging by his age, he looks so young! And that… strength of his," Nyla pouted and asked.
"I don't know, it's my disciple that bought this monster here."
"Elder Yueshan…who is that young man?" One of the Elders asked, he was an old man with a rusted sword hanging down his waist.
Instantly, all eyes snapped towards Yueshan, their 'eyes' screaming.
"That is not a normal beast core, that…that energy. It's from a Soul Tempering Demonic Beast!!" Upon closer observation and studying his [Mana Signature], Nyla spoke, her voice barely containing her surprise.
"Wait! Don't tell Yueshan yo—?"
"No, it wasn't me who gave him that core, and I don't even know where he even obtained that?"
Before she could complete her sentence, Yueshan interrupted.
Listening to the conversation, another elder chimed in. "Recently, there has been news about a large battle in the Silverleaf forest in the boundaries of the Northern territory, three high-ranking assassins from the syndicate were killed."
Hearing this, the other Elders frowned; Yueshan was no exception. Turning towards that elder, she said, "What are you talking about, you old fool? A battle of that scale and power, and you're linking that incident to him?"
The said Elder's eye twitched. Woman! You're even older than by centuries, and you dare call me old man!?
But those words brought a wave of confusion among the elders. Just where did he get that core from?
"Elder Yueshan, should we—?"
"No, denied. Do not try such foolish things; you can see from his personality that he is an arrogant, borderline narcissist. If you try such things and make an enemy out of him, the sect will suffer losses." Yueshan immediately shook her head.
She knew what these curious old fools were thinking. And right now, seeing his pace of growth in strength and…Will, she doubts such an existence would react kindly to such methods.
"But Yueshan, is it alright to let him run so…wild?"
This time, it was Elder Tirstan who had asked; he was amused, looking at the figure of Rahu, who was beating a peak Spirit Realm cultivator like a random dog.
"Yes, for now let him be, and besides. The Inheritance realm is opening, and he is one of the strongest, if not the strongest, disciples we have in our sect."
Elder Tristan's eyes widened in an instant, and he snapped her head towards Yueshan.
"Don't tell me the Sect Leader…!?"
"Yes"
…
In the colosseum, on platform 49, Rahu sat on a body with a bored look on his face, with black lightning zapping around his surroundings from time to time.
The surrounding platform disciples looked at him nervously. Thousands of disciples had their eyes on him.
Especially the female cultivators, their eyes were shining. That…that is an immortal!
His previous outrageous words suddenly sounded pleasing to them when they looked at his handsome face.
"What are you all doing!? We don't have all day! Continue the tournament!!" Elder Thorne's voice snapped them back to reality.
Again, the chaos followed. On the 32nd platform, a purple-haired woman was dashing in the crowd, her blade coated in thunder, leaving all the disciples on the platform shuddering.
After kicking a disciple out of the platform, she turned towards Rahu's direction, and an involuntary smile spread across her face.
"M-master really became so strong in just two months! And he…he really is handsome."
It was like his face was a drug; the more she looked at it, the more she wanted to look at it. Yes, this was all thanks to his little brother.
The tournament continued for a few more hours, and countless disciples fell.
And finally, after four hours, each platform had 200 disciples standing. The winners, but there was only one platform on which a lone man stood.
"Very good. Congratulations to the standing 9,950. You are eligible for the Inheritance Realm, which is going to open after four months. Do not disgrace the name Divine Sword Sect!"
Elder Thorne's words sent a wave of adrenaline through the bodies of thousands of disciples!
Elder Thorne continued, "Now the competitions for the positions of the top 10 strongest disciples will begin after a one-hour break!"
