The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 398



But that was still enough to beat Callan. After Callan was struck with the Black Demon Palm, the poison directly entered his arm. His arm would be temporarily paralyzed, so the upcoming battle would be easier for Lucifer after Callan lost one of his limbs.


Lucifer sees the old man watching the battle and signals him to stop Callan's men. Then, he continued to attack Callan. He's not gonna give Callan a chance. He had to knock him out at once.


Callan saw Lucifer attack him again and thought, 'Do you think I'm afraid of you.'


He suffered a slight loss because he was in a hurry earlier, and he was still angry. So Callan moved forward.


Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum!


The two began to fight again. The more Lucifer fought, the more he felt that something was amiss.


'Didn't I just hit Cally with the Black Demon Palm? Why can he still use his arm? Why doesn't he look hurt at all? No way!


The Black Demon Palm was a move that made Grandmaster famous, and was good for stealth attacks. But why didn't it work on Cally? Also, the Grandmaster is the one who taught me this fighting skill. He only let me out after I managed to learn it. So I'm sure there won't be any problems with that style.'


Lucifer doesn't know that he can't hide this little trick from David's mind power. David could see his sneak attack from the very beginning.


So, he quietly wrapped a thin layer on Callan's fist with the power of his mind to block the spread of the Black Demon Palm.


Lucifer did not believe that there would be anything wrong with his Black Demon Palm. Therefore, he continued to use it secretly.


'Black Demon Palm!'


'Black Demon Palm!'


'Black Demon Palm!'


Unfortunately, David would secretly use the power of his mind to stop the Black Demon Palm every time Lucifer used it. He would gain nothing with each of his attacks. Lucifer wonders if there's something wrong with his nurse.


'Grandmaster! What did you give me? It doesn't work at all! I was very tired, but my opponent was still moving. What kind of combat skill is this? this is suicide!'


Since using the Black Demon Palm required a lot of energy, Lucifer started to feel tired after using it many times. His attacks are starting to weaken.


Callan found a good chance to punch Lucifer straight in the chest.


”Pfft!” Lucifer spewed blood.


He flew over a hundred meters back and fell to the ground. Callan followed her and placed his foot on Lucifer's chest.


"Pffttt!” Lucifer spewed blood again.


Right now, he was running out of energy, and he could only let others do whatever he wanted to him.


In his heart, Lucifer was angry. He felt no inferior to Callan, but it was precisely the Grandmaster who had indirectly caused this. If he had not used the Black Demon Palm and had accidentally dried up his body's energy, he might not have lost. At best, it will be a series.


He wanted to cry in the sadness in his heart. 'Grandmaster, why can you do this to me?'


“Mr Lucifer!”


When the old man from the Grim family saw Lucifer get hurt, he wanted to go right up to him. But the old man from the Elrod family stopped him.


“It's a matter between them. Let them finish this on their own. After all, they had both agreed and signed contracts. Are your family members losers?"


“Keep! Listen to me, if anything happens to Mr. Lucifer, the grandmaster will take his revenge. Does your family want to start this battle."


Callan stepped on Lucifer's chest. Then, he raised his head to look at the screaming spectators around him. The feeling of stepping on his rival and being the center of attention of many people was incredible. It was too beautiful to be able to say with words. He felt as if he was on top of the world.


Callan also never expected that Lucifer would be so weak. He had fainted even before they fought a few rounds. Callan thought they were going to have a big fight today. It was possible that he would need to show all of his trump cards before he could win. In the end, he did not even show a single one of them, but he could already win easily.


It seems Old Master Grim is not that great. He had been teaching Lucifer for so long, but the boy had never progressed.


Callan does not know that if David does not help him secretly, he will be dropped before he can show his trump card. The Black Demon Palm's poison was no joke. Even if Lucifer had just learned it and he wasn't that strong, it wasn't something Callan could bear. If he was hit, he would definitely get hurt.


Lucifer was lying on the ground, feeling lifeless. Combat skills are called mainstay moves because they are stronger than other techniques. Therefore, one cannot use it casually like other normal techniques as it would exhaust them.


Lucifer's body could no longer accept it after using the Black Demon Palm's low-level combat skill countless times. He was furious when he saw Callan, who stepped on his chest and towered above it.


Then, he spewed out a mouthful of blood. Right now, he wants to die. This was the most embarrassing thing he had ever encountered. Most importantly, he lost to his family rival. The first heir of the Grim family, who was ranked fourth out of the eight leading families, was easily defeated by the first heir of the fifth rank Elrod family, and was even trampled on the ground contemptuously.


It would soon spread everywhere throughout the entire Royal Region. Then, Lucifer would become the laughingstock of everyone in the Kingdom Territory. How will his family see him?


'Oh no, I will die!'


When he thought of his legendary reputation being destroyed here, Lucifer felt anger rising into his head. When he saw the laughing face around him he fainted.


After enjoying the victory, Callan looked down to see Lucifer. Then he saw Lucifer fainting.


"Hey, Lucy, are you pretending to be dead? I didn't even expend too much energy, but you've already lost. If I knew you very well, I would easily approach you. Why haven't you made any progress after learning from your family's Grandmaster for so long? Is it because he is bad at teaching, or because you are an idiot? Huh. I'm so worried about your family's future. They don't even have a promising offspring!” Callan said arrogantly.


Lucifer didn't want to face reality, so he pretended to be unconscious. When she heard what Callan said, she fainted from anger. Callan lifted his leg from Lucifer's chest and stepped on his face.


Once, twice, three times. He finally stopped after Lucifer's face swelled up. Although it didn't do much harm to Lucifer, it was extremely troublesome. So many people are watching them.


Callan didn't step on Lucifer's face. Instead, he stepped on the entire Grim family. This scene would soon become big news in the Royal Region. The Grim family will become a public laughingstock.


The old man from the Grim family watched not far away as his master was humiliated. But he can't do anything. The old man from the Elrod family got in his way, so he knew he could not save Lord Lucifer quickly.


Moreover, once they started fighting, Master Lucifer would be injured as a result of his actions since he had lost his combat power as he lay nearby. Master Lucifer was normally still able to withstand the combat power of a Celestial Ranker normally, but currently, he could not.


To prevent further injury to Lucifer, the old man from the Grim family did not dare to do anything, a child he could not see was watching from one side.


“Bring your masters and get out of here. Stop embarrassing yourself here. Is this really the first heir of the Grim family? How weak. There will be a void in your family soon. It's so sad.” Callan shook their heads with his words.


The parents of the Grim family looked at Callan and knelt down without saying a word. After which, he lifted up his master's body. Upon learning that Lucifer had only fainted from having his internal organs injured, the old man heaved a sigh of relief.


'It'll be fine if he's not hurt too badly.'


If Lucifer died, the old man would make the Elrod family pay, even if it meant sacrificing his life. Otherwise, he would have died when he returned. The Grandmaster will not forgive him.


The old man of the Grim family took Lucifer and flew into the sky, disappearing from everyone's sight. He would humiliate the Grim family if he continued living here.


Right now, he had many questions in his heart. 'How could Mr Lucifer lose so easily to Mr Callan? They are on the same level. I don't see Master Callan using any secret weapons or powerful combat skills. So how did Mr Lucifer lose? Lord Lucifer has been living with the Grandmaster all this time. Did he learn nothing? I'll ask him what happened after he woke up. I don't know what happened anyway.'


After the old man of the Grim family left with Lucifer, tsunami-like cheers filled the arena.


“Mr Callan, you're the best!”


“All honor to Mr Callan!”


“You're the one, Mr. Callan!"


Callan waved at the surrounding audience like a winner. At the same time, he enjoyed the cheers of many people.


“David, you did that right? Otherwise, it won't end this fast.” whispered Mia.


He also felt this fight had a strong start but a disappointing ending. They were the first heirs of the fourth and fifth ranked families among the eight leading families. Moreover, those two families were mortal enemies.


How is it possible for them to achieve results so easily?


Where's their trump card?


Ultimate move?


Combat skills?


They didn't show any of it. Lucifer lost after a fistfight. That's not logical at all.


This battle affected the prestige of both families. It is no exaggeration to say that once the battle begins, the two can definitely use all their trump cards and tricks to get results. It was no wonder that one of them was seriously injured or even died.


But something unknown must have happened after what just happened. Mia thought. The only person who can and will do this is David. So, he asked that question.


David smiled and said nothing. As Mia looked at her smile, she had an answer in her heart. At this moment, Callan walked over.


“Ha ha ha ha! David, you are my lucky star! I have fought Lucy for many years, and even if the results went both ways in the past, I never defeated her like today. So many people are watching this. That punk will definitely be heavily criticized when he returns. This feels great! Ha ha ha ha!" Callan laughed out loud.


David thought to himself, ‘Truely, I am your lucky star. If I don't do anything, you'll be on the ground now.'


But since he did this secretly, he didn't need to tell Callan. Besides, he didn't want to be the center of attention.


"It's because of your own strength, and it has nothing to do with me. Since there's nothing more we can do, let's go, Mia.” David smiled and said.


Then he turned and left. He lost twenty thousand fancy points, and he felt annoyed now. Next, he had to travel to the Grim family.


Lucifer had wasted his time and even tried to disrespect Mia. How will he live with himself if he doesn't go and demand an explanation?


He had to find out who his master was before he beat up the dog, didn't he?


Lucifer dared to lie to David even wanted to kill him. Even if David has a good temper, he still wants to vent his temper. Therefore, he decided to travel to the Grim family.


At the same time, he could ignore Mia's worries about him so that Mia would not be afraid while doing something. If the Grim family behaved well and admitted their mistakes easily, he would be lenient to them. But Lucifer has to pay for what he's done.


If the Grim family tried to use the strength of their family or their grandmaster to suppress it, it was a pity. David hoped they wouldn't blame him if he killed them all with his sword.


“David, you can come to me if you need something in the future. I have power in the Royal Territory. Although I can't do anything big, I can still help you with some small things.” cried Callan.


David was already starting to leave.


"Alright, I will definitely remember you, Mr. Callan Elrod. See you soon!" david said without turning around.


Mia followed behind him respectfully. After David and Mia left, Callan was still staring in the direction they had left.


”Mr Callan, David is not as simple as it looks.” said the old man next to Callan.


“What do you mean?" ask Callan.


"When I just wanted to save him, I felt a terrifying killing intent. Even if it's only natural, I still feel it. Besides, he was closest to us when we fought. But Mia wasn't even hurt."


“That's it?"


"Also, he never showed fear all the time. His eyes were always calm, even when facing two Celestial Rankers. He was never disturbed by our presence. Moreover, he always acts cold when you talk to him excitedly. If it was someone else, they would be desperately trying to establish a relationship with you. Because of all this, I think this guy is not only strong, but he also has a very important background.”


“I know that! How could Fairy Dance release her position from the four fairies and follow a normal person? Do you know how many direct descendants of the various families are eyeing Mia? Lucifer is just the level of a messenger boy. If David wasn't strong, he wouldn't be able to protect Mia."


After Callan said that, he continued after pondering, “Then, Mia could behave well because everyone respects the balance, and no one wants to ruin it. After all, they might offend a lot of people in the process. This balance is broken when David arrives, and Mia announces that she will stop being one of the four fairies. I think David will soon uncover his strength and background.”


Callan didn't say that he felt someone was doing something behind his back, so that's why he could beat Lucifer. He had thought that a master was hiding among them, but now, it seemed that master was David.


‘But what did he do? How could he hide from the eyes of two Celestial Rankers?' This is very confusing for Callan.


“Mr Callan, since David is willing to offend a lot of people because of Mia, why do you still want to be friends with him?" The old man asked in confusion.
