Chapter 304: Inner Disciple Tournament 9-Big Revenge
304 Inner Disciple Tournament 9-Big Revenge
After defeating that guy, Alex didn"t have any comment besides changing his name into Superilly or Super Silly since it was more befitting that guy. He didn"t really care about it since he was only a stranger to Alex.
He came back to Charya and Evelyn with a smile. He knew that he and the others were a bit obsessed with the next match, but they should not be like that. The more they got obsessed, the more they couldn"t think of a good idea. Especially Charya, who was constantly glaring at the sixteenth elder.
"That guy should change his "mart" to "illy" so we can call him Super Silly." He said to change the atmosphere in the room.
Evelyn and Charya looked at him with surprise before laughing a little bit. Charya finally realized his aim. She shook her head helplessly. She took a deep breath to calm his head.
"Alex, Do you think you can win?" Charya asked.
"Absolutely. This is a match that I need to win no matter what cost." Alex said with a serious expression.
"Do you realize that Putri and Song Yu come here to watch?" Charya asked him. After knowing them for so long, she could feel that they were in the arena, watching the tournament.
"No." Alex shook his head before adding, "But I know they will watch this match."
"Well, I don"t care as long as you can win. If possible, you can beat that b*tch like that princess. I don"t know why you beat that princess like that, but make sure to do that to that b*tch if you can."
Alex only smiled, "It is true that I wanted to beat her like that. But in this match, I have something more important. I will do that first before I beat her."
"Something Important?" Charya furrowed her eyebrows.
"Yes. I want to show something to my Senior Sister. She is strong and talented. I"m sure even with this setback, she would be able to rise again."
Charya looked at him in confusion. She didn"t know what kind of thing he wanted to show her, but it seemed very important to him.
"Fine. Whatever you do. Just make sure you think carefully. I don"t want to see the same incident again." Charya said.
"Of course. I am a careful person. If I did something, I would do it only after careful consideration." Alex a.s.sured her.
Charya looked at his expression and didn"t speak anymore.
Alex continued to watch the match after the match while waiting for his turn to come up. And finally, after another two hours, Elder Dolf announced.
"Alexander Sirius versus Intan Wulan Makmur."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Alex slowly came to the arena. He looked very calm like yesterday"s matter had never happened in the first place.
Alex looked at the green-haired beauty and sighed.
"Haha... How is it? Is she dead yet? She must commit suicide already. After all, she had lost everything." Intan tried to taunt him to mess with his mind.
Alex only chuckled.
"She is a strong person and a very talented one at that. In fact, she is far more talented than you." Alex said softly.
"Hmph. More talented? Without a spear, what can she do? Without family, what can she do?" Intan snorted.
"You already saw it yesterday. Without a spear, she could use a strong Wind Element Martial Art. Without the Makmur Family, she could get a hold of a rank 5 spear. In fact, because of this, she will come back and reach a far greater height than all of you can give her.
"And with all of you finally revealed your true color, she could realize who her real friends and family are. And all of it came not too late. With her new family, you would only be filled with regret." He said calmly.
"Talk big. You are just talking big like what you did earlier. Do you think you are capable of fighting an entire Kingdom? Hmph!"
"Haha… I never thought like that. I only thought whether the Southern Kingdom is capable of fighting me." Alex said. Well, he was confident that later, he and his spirits could even raze the entire Southern Kingdom to the ground with ease. If he couldn"t, he can just use the token that his Master gave him and used it in the middle of the kingdom.
He could ask his master, Maxwell, to destroy the entire kingdom. But it would leave a bad taste in his mouth, so he buried it deep inside his heart. He would only resort to doing that if he was forced to do that.
"You!"
"Don"t believe me? How about we also use the Heavenly Oath like what you suggested yesterday? If you lose, you can"t use a spear anymore."
"Hmph, I don"t need to do that because I will definitely win this match. And I don"t see any merits in doing that to you." Intan said. In fact, she was a little scared by Alex"s calm expression.
Although she had prepared the countermeasure for Alex"s running sword, she felt Alex was still holding himself back. Because of that, she didn"t dare to accept this bet.
"What? You don"t dare? I thought you would definitely win this match? So, why not bet with me? If you lose, you will only lose your ability to wield a spear since I am going to lose my sword if I lose. If that is not enough, hmm… Then, how about if I lose…"
Alex paused a little bit before saying it with a serious expression, "I will cripple myself and never cultivate again?"
All the people in the arena immediately got shocked by Alex"s statement. They were thinking about whether he was daring or just foolish.
"Alex!" Charya shouted his name. She never thought Alex would make such a bet. In fact, she knew Alex"s ability was far higher than Putri. If Alex also crippled after this, she could not forgive herself. She wanted to stop Alex, but Alex only smiled at her. Somehow, that smile could stop her.
Song Yu also grumbled in the arena. Putri clenched her fist while biting her lips.
Intan was astonished by Alex"s statement, but Alex didn"t manage to bait her with that. Alex also understood that from her expression alone.
He had expected this, so he suddenly took out a bronze badge with four stars on it. It was clear for everyone to see it was a rank 4 Alchemist badge. They were shocked when Alex took something like this.
"If that is not enough… How about if I lose… I, as a rank 4 Alchemist, will become your slave and will do everything to your bidding. I will make pills or whatever you want me to." Alex said.
"What?"
"He is a rank 4 Alchemist? Is he joking with us?"
"He must be joking. I have never seen a rank 4 Alchemist that young!"
"If that is true, then it means he is not only a sword genius but also an Alchemist genius!"
The crowd was shocked by the sudden revelation.
"With Heaven and Earth as the witness, I a.s.sure you, I didn"t tell lies." Alex suddenly made an oath that shut the crowd up.
They could clearly see that it didn"t do anything to him. In other words, what Alex said was indeed not a lie. He was a genuine rank 4 Alchemist. this immediately shocked them to the point they could speak.
Intan was astonished by this revelation and almost took the bait. But she was very wary against Alex"s sword.
Alex knew that he only needed a little push to make her agree. He once again stated while taking out a green spear from his inventory, "I am proud to have her to be my Senior Sister. So, that"s why… In this fight, I will only use my "spear" and not my sword."
"Alex!" Charya, Song Yu, Evelyn, and even Putri shouted his name, wanting to stop her.
Alex said his "spear" because he was a bit unique. But it was enough to bait her. Intan immediately said without giving a chance for Charya and the others to stop him. "So be it. You will become my slave."
"With Heaven and Earth as the witness, If I lost this match, I won"t be able to use spear again." She said.
"With Heaven and Earth as the witness, If I lost this match, I will become Intan Wulan Makmur"s slave. And in this match, I can only use my "Spear," not my sword." Alex also made the oath.
Everyone wanted to stop him from that reckless decision, but Alex only looked at them with a smile. Especially when he looked at Putri, he said, "Watch me."
"Please start the match, Third Elder," Intan said hurriedly.
Elder Dolf looked at Alex with a worried expression. He knew Alex was a genius, but he was a sword genius, not a spear genius. Unfortunately, before he managed to stop him, Alex had made the Heavenly Oath.
Alex only nodded his head.
Elder Dolf gritted his teeth and announced, "Match Start!"
Alex and Intan raised their spear and thrust it toward each other.
The tip collided with each other and pushed both of them away.
They retreated a few steps back, but while they were at it. They raised their spears again and shot an arrow-like thing.
"Quick Silver."
"Boom!" Both of their "Quick Silver" destroyed each other. This was precisely the same as what Putri and Intan did in their fight. But surprisingly, Alex could use a Quick Silver. This made everyone, including Charya and the others, dropped their jaws to the ground.
Alex could use the Quick Silver because he copied it since he already got his Spear Mastery card. Intan tried to fight him in close combat because she wanted to let him know first how hard it was to use a spear.
But surprisingly, Alex could follow her moves without getting suppressed by her. And eventually, they raised their spear and thrust it again with a far stronger power.
"Silver Raven!"
The clash was earth-shaking. They never thought Alex could even use Silver Raven. Although it was a relatively but powerful move, Alex was a sword genius, not a spear genius. Seeing him using the Silver Raven gave them gooseb.u.mps.
After that clash, both of them retreated a few steps back.
"I never thought you could use the spear this well. I might need to be wary about you if you use a sword, because with a spear. You can"t do this." Intan said while releasing her twenty meters Spear Domain.
Alex smiled calmly at her. He said, "What is a spear? What is a sword? Both of them are weapons. And unlike bow, ax, or even knuckle. Spear and sword are pretty similar, you know. The spear has a shorter blade but longer handle while the sword has a longer blade but a shorter handle. That"s all."
Alex said while throwing his spear to the ground.
"Snort. No matter what you say, a spear is a spear, and a sword is a sword. Just look at you, you throw your spear to the ground. Are you giving up?"
"Haha, why should I give up when I know I will win this match?" Alex asked, and suddenly he took out a sword and grabbed it with his hand.
All the people were shocked.
"Why did he hold a sword?" was the thought of everyone present. They remembered that Alex had made a Heavenly Oath only to use a spear, not a sword in this match. So he should not be able to use a sword.
"Like I said, they are just weapons. The spear has a shorter blade but longer handle while the sword has a longer blade but a shorter handle. As long as you bypa.s.s that condition, they are the same." Alex smiled while adding, "I already said from the beginning. I will fight you with my "Spear," and this is my spear."
Alex suddenly released a twenty meters domain. But this domain contained boundless Spear Intent, not Sword Intent.
"Spe…Spear… Spear Domain!"
