Chapter 78: 78
The entire audience immediately focused on the stage that Dylan was fighting against. Being the highest ranked fighter in the tournament, most people expected him to win. This was his first fight, and everyone was curious how powerful he really was.
His opponent was a boy from the Fenix Clan whose rank died the last of the sixty-four competitors. He looked at Dylan in trepidation, but still held his sword firmly in his hand. The referee started the match, and Dylan casually spoke to his opponent.
“Rush, or don't blame me for not being merciless.”
“No. I know I have no chance of winning, but I will keep fighting,” replied the boy. He knew he was going to lose, but he wanted to lose with pride rather than give up even before fighting.
“Hmph, fight? There will be no fights.” Dylan quickly raised his sword and slashed at it even before his opponent could react. An extremely strong blood red sword Qi was traveling towards the Fenix Clan boy, and arrived before he could even react.
“Very fast!” The crowd could hardly believe Dylan's attack speed. Not only was his attack extremely fast, but it was also powerful.
The boy hurriedly raised his own sword to be blocked, and a powerful Qi beam collided with his sword.
“Gah!”
The boy was violently sent flying backwards, and the sound of his arm fracture was heard. The boy landed hard on the stage and fell down several times, blood flowing behind him. Before his body could even stop, Dylan arrived next to the boy and kicked with all his might. Qi covered his entire leg as he used John's rough yet powerful kick to send his opponent flying from the arena and into the stands.
The explosion!
The boy collided with the stone stand, and the bones once again sounded broken. The entire audience fell silent as they did not know how to react to what they had just witnessed. Dylan's strength was truly incredible, and he won with just one move.
Several Fenix Clan Elders immediately reacted and ran towards the boy, and their eyes immediately hardened as they examined the boy.
“Quick, bring him back to the carriage and provide assistance. Give him the Gold Mist Healing Pill.” An elder shouted an order, and the boy was immediately taken away. Cade Fenix used his heavenly sense to examine the boy's body as he was carried away by the current, and instantly became furious over what he saw.
“Warren, what the hell does this mean?” Cade could not help but shout furiously. He knew that Warren had most likely given instructions to Dylan to hurt every member of the Fenix Clan, but this had already crossed the line.
“What do you mean? Dylan just did what your son did in his first fight?” Warren shrugged and replied nonchalantly, but a slight smile betrayed his otherwise calm demeanor.
“Persis is the same as my ass. Your son will be cured in a week or two, but Dylan almost killed our junior. If he was lucky, he would have fully recovered in half a year, if not more. I warn you, don't go too far, or don't blame me for being disrespectful. ” Cade Fenix warns angrily.
Although the Fenix Clan boy was severely injured, his dantian was not crippled and he did not die. It took a long time for him to heal, but in the end he would recover and be able to cultivate again. Since this was the case, he had no reason to try to get Dylan disqualified, so the only thing he could do was to personally warn Warren against going too far.
“As I said before, if you want to fight, let's fight. Otherwise, do not threaten me with these little words.” Warren answered frankly.
Cade Fenix wanted to reprimand, but he knew arguing too much would lower his status as the clan leader. The only thing he could do was to make anyone in his clan give up if they were to be pitted against Dylan, in order to avoid something like this from happening again.
John stared back at Dylan with anger in his eyes. Although he was not close friends with the injured boy, he still knew him quite well. They had dodged many times while growing up, and John thought highly of the boy. Seeing him hurt in such a way just to send a message to John was already outrageous.
“Damn it, this Dylan pisses me off like Jason.” Miko was also angry with Dylan. “He acted like he was amazing, but I would wipe the floor with his corpse if I wanted to. What's so amazing about him?”
Miko made sure to speak out loud for the audience and Dylan himself to hear her comments. Dylan's face furrowed furiously and was about to respond when a voice suddenly spoke from the stands.
“It was a difficult talk from someone who did not even reach the final of the Qi Condensation tournament. Last I remember, I kicked your ass in the tournament, so why are you acting so tough?”
Miko and the rest of the crowd instantly looked to the source of the voice, and found Jason from the Crimson Valley Sect lazily leaning against the stands with an arrogant expression on his face. She finds Miko's comments throughout the tournament annoying to listen to, so she wants to silence Miko here and now.
“b*jing*n, you want to fight now? I had just advanced the day before the tournament and I was still close to beating you. Not only that, but you are three years older than me and you still dare to talk? If I were you, I'd kill myself in shame. ”
Miko immediately responded to Jason angrily.
“What did you say?” Jason's face soon darkens as his desire to kill Miko explodes out. Miko looked at Jason sternly and was about to respond when Waylon cut off the two.
“Quite, it's time for the next round.”
The sixth round has ended and the rest of the seventh and final round of fighting is about to begin. Both Dalton and Joy, which is the second highest placement after Dylan are fighting at this stage. The two of them displayed incredible combat power, and easily won their fight.
“Round sixty-four is now complete. From now on, the fight will be random, and the Match for the next round thirty-two has been posted. Please see your matches and proceed to the respective arenas.” Waylon once again instructed the group of participants.
John saw Ryan walk up to the match board and walk up to him with a smile. “So how did it go?”
“Pretty good, shocking.” Ryan responded but added nothing more. Both of them are here for the tournament, so matters of the heart can wait later.
The next round of fighting was conducted, and John, Ryan, Ella, Dylan, Dalton and Joy all won their fights with relative ease. John once again used his body's cultivation strength to overwhelm his opponent with pure power, which shocked the crowd once again, even though they found out about his Innate Varian Body.
When the round of sixteen games was announced, both John and Ryan immediately walked over to see their match.
A depressed expression instantly appeared on Ryan's face as John reached out and comforted him with a pat of his back.
“Buddy was lucky, but since you fit in with me, this is where your tournament ends.
