Slowly opening his eyelids, Deadter looked around in confusion as he thought, 'What happened? Why am I laying down here?'

At the same time, he could hear the skinny male's nonstop voice which annoyed him quite a lot to be honest, "Big brother! Are you finally awake? Are feeling okay? Does it hurt anywhere? Do you need anything? Please say something!!"

"Shut up!" Finally, unable to tolerate, Deadter shouted in frustration.

Seeing him finally quiet down, he inquired, "What happened? Wasn't I fighting that bastard? Why can't I remember what happened afterward?... I mean when the match began?"

"Sigh... big brother... this... listen... actually... you lost." Looking at Deadter with eyes filled with worry, the skinny young man voiced.

"What?" Listening to him, Deadter couldn't believe him at first as his thoughts went blank for a while.

But then, his mind abruptly went back to the fight as he began to finally remember what happened.

"No! That bastard!!!! I will get my revenge on him!" Next, as if he had gone insane all of a sudden, he started to yell.

That was the case because Deadter could finally remember how he had been shot with one blue light after another as he could only helplessly tolerate that extreme level of pain which he had never experienced prior.

Even just remembering the extent of that terrifying pain was really traumatizing for him and that made him really vexed and indignant as a result.

"Calm down big brother..." The skinny male asked.

"You're asking me to calm down? Fuck! How the heck do I calm down when that bastard did that to me and defeated me like that?! Damn it!!! This is the greatest humiliation of my entire life and it happened in front of everyone!" Uttering in a loud voice, he went on a rampage as he began to throw everything around himself at the skinny male.

So, just like that, everything in the room began to break as the skinny male's forehead was also bleeding now as he silently looked at Deadter without the least bit of resistance or anger.

After a while of venting, finally, Deadter was a lot calmer as opened his mouth again in malice and hatred, "Bastard, don't think this is over... I might not be able to get my revenge by my own hands... but that doesn't mean I don't have other means to achieve my goal! Just you wait!"

Witnessing Hadelia's cultivation level increase once again from the ninth level Qi Passage Opening Stage to the tenth, the elders became astonished very much as they hadn't expected her to be still hiding the full extent of her power!

"So... she still had some reserved power she wasn't willing to reveal... just who is she exactly? I feel like she's not an ordinary person." Virus' master, the Alchemy pagoda master murmured as he watched his disciple and Hadelia begin their fight.

In the previous matches of Virus, when he witnessed his ring transform into a weapon, he was greatly startled and confused as he thought, 'Sigh... this disciple of mine seems to have so many secrets inside his body...'

As he thought that, he took a look around, only to witness himself surrounded with eyes of greed, all of which were directed at his new disciple.

.

.

Other elders were amazed too when they realized Hadelia was still not revealing her full power.

The same thought was passing through other people's mind as they pondered, 'Until now, he was mainly winning because he had always succeeded in keeping his opponents away in a distance from himself... but now, this Hadelia has succeeded in breaking that routine... as she's almost right behind him... and there is also no chance of her being shot anymore as she's right at his back.'

'Sigh... it seems this is as far as my junior apprentice-brother can go...' A specific beauty who had just arrived in Virus' previous match thought as she looked at Hadelia who was almost behind him.

When Astes watched Virus' previous match, she was astounded very much as she had stared at the match between Virus and his opponent in disbelief.

Naturally, she too, just like every other disciple who had watched Virus' match for the first time, at first felt amazement toward his weapon, but then as time passed, she also began to feel admiration in how well and experienced Virus seemed in controlling the weapon.

Now, before Virus' match with Hadelia had begun, she had been having this odd sense of excitement as she couldn't stop herself from being extremely hopeful about Virus winning this match too.

But, as the match began, after realizing Hadelia was much more powerful than she seemed to be, her hopes began to shatter until, eventually, she was almost right behind Virus, which made her totally give up on the notion of Virus winning.

.

.

Currently, charging at Virus from behind with her short sword, Hadelia was just a couple of steps away as she thought, 'This is over.'

At the same time, she raised her short sword as she muttered, "Second form – Dance of the Sparrow".

Instantly afterward, her sword began to move with extremely fast speed as she knew the match was over.

Then, she unconsciously blinked, like she didn't want to see her short sword cut Virus up.

However, much to her confusion, she didn't experience that feeling of sword cutting somebody up.

And more oddly, she could no longer hear any voice from the viewers as they had suddenly gone entirely silent for some unknown reason.

So wanting to see what exactly had happened, she opened her eyes slowly, but halfway through, her eyelids jumped open as she stared at the scene in front of her with eyes as big as saucers as she was jolted and perturbed greatly, because she was witnessing no one in front of her at this very moment!

Even though she was shaken greatly by what was happening right now, understanding her next most important action she had to do as fast as possible, she quickly began to search around in order to find Virus' exact location.

However, no matter how hard her eyeballs moved around, she couldn't find anyone in her line of sight.

Suddenly, a thought passed through her head which made the hairs all over her body stand on their ends as at the same time all of the danger alarms on her body went off altogether, 'Could it be that... he's behind me right now?'

This thought kind of horrified her inside as she began to run away straightly from her current spot without even daring to check what was behind herself because she knew the most important thing right now was to get away.

Then finally, successfully getting away, she heaved a sigh of relief, as she turned around in order to finally check her previous location.

But, what she saw in her line of sight startled her once again as she grew dumbfounded.

Because at this moment, right in front of her, she was witnessing something bizarre and amazing.

And that was... Virus, whose arms and legs were currently covered with numerous pitch black scales, each of which was as big as half a finger.

Moreover, she could clearly see that right now, everywhere in between each scale which was covering both of Virus' arms and legs was shining with bright blue lights, creating a very beautiful, yet petrifying scene in front of her.
