Rebirth In Against The Gods With The Ultimate System

The two hours of waiting were up and Yun Che was back to his seating area. Once there, his mind was still lingering on one thing. He never knew that Li Yue was actually someone he didn"t expect. So, the Table Hopper, Frozen Cloud Asgard and her profound arts were fit in the same bill. He concluded that Little Fairy will never divulge their arts to another unless she was forced upon. But knowing her guts and persistence, that would be impossible. To think that the Table Hopper he taught to her and Retsu were given easily to someone. Despite he had all of these questions in his head, he decided to let that Li Yue play her part in the selection. He had plenty of time revealing and asking all of this when they"re in the tomb. If she made it to that part.

But the real question is…..

Why is she here partic.i.p.ating in the tomb without the knowledge of the sect? With Little Fairy"s ice heart gone. Her emotions were stabilized and she will never let her take the one-way ticket to her death for something that was far above her. Judging from her looks during their meeting, he can conclude that Li Yue left her and the sect without saying goodbye or else Little Fairy would do whatever it takes to stop her. Moreover, the sect will never let her go now that her cultivation marks another one will step into the Emperor Profound Realm one day. Marking her as an important person just like Little Fairy and if this were known, the sect will try to sniff the reason for her recent breakthroughs and trace it all back to him.

Yun Che shook his head from his thoughts before focusing back to the tournament. He decided to keep these information at bay before telling them to anyone. Even if he told it to Retsu, Jasmine and the others, none of them actually met Li Yue yet. So, for now. He just plays the fool for now before she chose to reveal herself.

The two-hour recuperation period was over and the tournament was restarted. The final sixteen matches are now in motion as the contestants were back to their seating area. Even Li Yue was back to her seat but if she wanted to be known as Li Yue for now so he just let her be Li Yue.

Yun Che could sense that her energy was in turmoil due to her constant use of Table Hopper for two times today. The technique was meant only for the Shinigami but due to Little Fairy"s curiosity and persistence. He modified them to be used by ordinary cultivators but they had some side effects for beginners. If she use it one more time, the toll will be too much and she"ll be in disadvantage. Moreover, her opponent after this is not some pushover.

The matches will be decided by the city lord to determine whether they wanted to go first or last. By deciding on the raffle once more by the city lord. Yun Che"s luck got a bit sour as his match was decided as the last match of the day means his battle with the Heavenly Sword Villa"s elder will go last.

As he sighs, Li Yue"s match was a bit surprising as she"s not going for the second, third or beyond. She will go first. When the city lord decided their matches, the crowds were going wild once more as Li Yue"s match was first and Yun Che"s were last. Making her as the appetizer of the match and Dracule Mihawk"s as the desert.

As the other clans and partic.i.p.ants heard the crowds, they shot the both of them with a look of envy as they are considered as the smartest and the strongest by the crowd"s reaction. Before this, no one knew anything about them. Now, they won their reactions while the rest of them just merely decorations. They were clans and sects came from different parts of the empire and being bathe with all kinds of attention in their place. But now that the famous clans were defeated by Li Yue and the strongest clans were defeated by Mihawk. None of them received the attention just like them. Even if they won, they just receive reactions just like how winners would receive. Not the kind of attention received by Li Yue and Mihawk.

Right now, Li Yue was wondering how she would handle her opponent which hailed from the infamous Wu Clan. She doesn"t know much about them but Mihawk"s warning to her seems to give her some second thoughts. Like how in the world is she going to handle opponents like them? If Mihawk was with her at that time and warning her about her opponent, doesn"t that mean whoever this Wu Clan elder will pose a threat to her? She just made her breakthrough and these later elders have years of combat experience. Even if she won these matches, there"s no way she could match up against eights others in the tomb. Excluding Mihawk of course. She won"t mind exposing her arts in the tomb but here, she"ll do whatever it takes to win without her arts. The sect must never know about her involvement.

As for Yun Che, his match was decided as last match of the day. So, he"ll make sure the outshines the rest of them and established Mihawk"s name as the World"s Strongest. However, he wanted to slander the Heavenly Sword Villa"s name as a message to them before he"ll initiate the "operation" two months from now. That villa has been causing him nothing but trouble in the later future.

As the raffle session by the city lord is over, the voice of the announcer sounded once more. "With that ladies and gentlemen, the final matches are decided. The winners of the selection will be given a special token of appreciation came from the city lord himself. What the tokens are will remain a mystery as only the current city lord knows. Now that the matches have been decided. We would like to invite our first final match of the day. Our mysterious Fairy Li Yue and the legendary Wu Clan elder, Wu Yuza."

One of the audience suddenly spoke. "She"ll face Wu Yuza? d.a.m.n, I don"t know whether I should bet on her on the later."

"But, she"ll win right? She"s the dark horse other than that swordsman."

"But Wu Yuza is not some pushover. He"s from the Wu Clan. The Wu Clan. The only clan that had the direct support of the Sacred Ground in the inner lands aside from the Heavenly Sword Villa. Because of them, the Heavenly Sword Villa is the strongest after the Frozen Cloud Asgard. No one dares to offend them but this Wu Clan also had their backing as well."

"No wonder the elder"s opponents concede after meeting him. No one dares to offend the Wu Clan. Only those from the four strongest sects can go against them."

"They might be some branch clan in the empire but even the other clans won"t dare offend them in this selection."

"Are they really that powerful?"

"Word has it that they have something that can boost the cultivation and strength. It can help cultivators boost their powers temporarily even surpa.s.sed a few smaller realms. This boost of powers is their clan specialty and no one can take it from them."

"So, the sacred ground support them for this?"

"Sort of."

"Wow, if they can produce such a method. The other clans would beg them to give them something to get that edge. I don"t know the things are going to happen in the arena."

"If that Li Yue knew better, she better concede. Even if she wins, the Wu Clan won"t let her go for causing them to lose face. Especially someone with no concrete backing."

As the audience speculating against her, Li Yue turned a deaf ear as she stood in front of a middle age man. The man wore some kind of robe with the character "Wu" behind his back and had a hammer sling on his waist. She heard her name was Wu Zuya from the announcer before. She can sense the haughty air around him as he slowly walked on the stage towards the middle. She remembered that all of the man"s opponent concede making him have the default win until now. However, she never seen him fought or how his martial skills works. That"s the only problem with the opponents that win by default. None of them can be underestimated.

Li Yue"s eyes slowly divert towards Yun Che as she remembered his words from their previous encounter. He said that he faced one of them before and his only warning was "Don"t let them eat something." Its probably the thing the crowd is talking about, something that boost their cultivation. Giving them an absolute advantage in the arena.

"Hmph, looks like another ant stood before me. Why don"t you give up as I am generous today? By the way, do you wanted to join the banner of the Wu Clan? I promised a woman like you would have a brighter future under our banner." As he spoke, she could see that he was looking at her just like a piece of meat as he licked his lips.

Feeling disgusted, she regain her composure before replying with a cold tone. "I thank you for the offer. But I have no intention of conceding."

"You, you"re about to challenge the Wu Clan. Aren"t you afraid you"ll offend us?"

"Since when challenging you to a match equals to offending you? You"re just a branch clan elder. Not the real clan itself. A rabid dog dares to bark like the top dog." Her reply cause the audience to look at her as if she was crazy. But that"s the thing about a mysterious cultivator, no one knew anything about them and they could offend anyone they want.

"You…. Since I am feeling magnanimous today. Just concede like the others."

"I told you, I am not interested."

"You…then…don"t blame me for letting you and your family die one da…." However, before he could finish his sentence. Li Yue had already arrived in front of him before she swung her sword straight on his neck.

"You keep talking or there"ll be no more of you." Although he managed to avoid it by the skin of his teeth, he felt his bubbling anger as the woman didn"t even had a sense of respect towards him. He wad bathe with praises in his place but this is the first time someone talked back to him.

He hissed at her as he spoke "You…you really wanted to offend us?"

"You started to annoy me." Li Yue kept on ganking him without paying attention to his words. Currently, she"s under disguise and won"t do anything to trace anything back to her origin. So she could offend anyone she wants. Besides, if Mihawk was the one fighting this b.a.s.t.a.r.d. She imagined that he"ll cut him down before he had a chance to speak.

The elder, Wu Zuya was angered. He used those words to intimidate the h.e.l.l out of his opponents and forced them to surrender. All of them seems successful for the past two round but this black clothed woman didn"t even listen to him as she gank him down on the spot. The audience was impressed when Li Yue ignored the elder"s words and continued to gank him without mercy. She didn"t even listen as he continuously spouting intimidating threats like using the powers of the sacred ground and any other nonsense but she continued to attack him and caused him to be on the defensive.

"You, looks like I showed you enough mercy but you continued to offend me. Hmph, don"t force this elder to became serious and thrash you on the spot." Wu Zuya stared channeling his energy to his sword before stabilizing his body. He might look like an idiot just now but he once he started to show his powers as an elder. His opponent might have some trouble.

"We of the Wu Clan specialty in manipulating the Earth. Now, take this rock and scram!" He stabbed his sword to the ground before channeling his whole energy there causing the whole arena to shake. Suddenly, small pebbles started gathering on the tip of his sword. Li Yue might be fast but it wasn"t enough to prevent the formation of multiple head size rocks forming around Wu Zuya. The sounds of pebbles colliding with each was heard as he formed his martial skill while she remained on stage. With those rocks around him, she had some troubles breaking through his defense as those pebbles seems to have mind of its own as it protected him.

Once the head size rocks were ready, he started to shooting them in every direction and he shot several of them at her. Li Yue noticed the rocks and she immediately dodged as it pa.s.sed her. But, another thing shocks her when the rocks pa.s.sed her clearly but the rocks flew just now started coming back to her.

"What? How did…." She immediately dodges the incoming rocks but the more she dodged the more rocks started to came to her way. If she dodges one, then two suddenly pop up next to her. And endless display of flying rocks on her way.

"Hmph, now feast your eyes upon this elder"s skill. You refused to take my offer and continued to offend me. Now face the full wrath of elder Zuya." He smiled sinisterly as he continued to cause Li Yue trouble in the arena. Those rocks might be slow but dodging a lot of them at the same time started to cause her some trouble.

"Looks like this guy is full of s.h.i.t. Just because he had the support doesn"t mean he can bark his a.s.s off." Yun Che started to thought as he saw the battle between Li Yue and that stuck up elder. Looks like staying in a comfortable position cause him to lose some screw.

However, he saw the changes in her movement as knew that Li Yue had some kind of plan. She continued to dodge the rocks but the she noticed that those rocks would always move around in circles. She timed the rocks carefully before she dodges them. With that, she immediately initiate a close combat against him.

"A simple attack and defend is all you know? For a woman, you pretty dumb if you think a non-martial skill user like you can defeat a Wu Clan elder." However, as he was defending and talking. She noticed a rock was behind her and she dodge it immediately, missed it by the corner of her clothes. The trajectory of that rock was set and she immediately avoid it by the skin of her clothes and Wu Zuya was shock as the rock immediately hit his abdomen area.

"Guarkk!!! You…."

Suddenly more and more rocks arriving at him as he was holding his stomach. The rocks were cast in a circular motion where it use Li Yue as a target but Li Yue figured out its weakness when she saw one of the rock missed her but take a long swinging in the distance and the trajectory was always move around in a circle. So she used that advantage to time the rocks arrival before initiating a combat with him. When the rocks arrived back at her, she immediately jumped and caused the rocks to bombard Wu Zuya.

"Looks like he was too confident on that skill but he probably didn"t expect it backfired on him instantly. Strong and slow it might be but that girl was fast enough to find its weakness." As he was bombarded by the rocks, Li Yue continued to watch as the elder fell by his own technique. His mistake was setting the rock"s trajectory and used her as a target. The elder emerged from underneath the pile of rocks using his earth shield to protect him. His clothes were tattered from the previous bombardment as he glared Li Yue with killing intent.

Started losing his composure, he manipulated the rocks around him before forming a ma.s.sive sword made up of the earth as well as a ma.s.sive arm made up from the earth.

"You… this elder has tolerated enough to use his martial skill to play with you. But you leave me with no choice." Suddenly he started to swing the sword towards her but the power of the earth sword was there but it lacked speed. She easily dodges the earth sword before went back to him. As he saw her approach him from the front, he immediately surrounds himself with an earth shield to protect him.

This is when everyone can see his main weakness. He could only channel one art at the time. The moment she attacked him just now, he manipulates the earth to shield him but he didn"t monitor the flying rocks so she used those rocks against him. But now, his earth sword was as still as statue as he used his energy to block the incoming strike. Li Yue immediately infused her sword with her frost energy before she pierced the shield. Due to his energy was used in making the giant sword, it wasn"t enough to fortify the shield. So, she easily priced it and…

"ARRRGGHHH!!!!!"

Wu Zuya shouted in the air as he felt excruciating pain came from his chest. The sword pierced the shield like knife through b.u.t.ter and it stabbed the middle of his chest. With the pain gained from it, all the shield, rocks, and the giant arm with sword was slowly crumbled to pieces as he lost his focus on channeling his energy.

Seeing he was on the losing side, he immediately went into his robe before pulling out a peach like fruit underneath it. But instead of yellowish orange color of the peach. This peach was pitch black and had some kind of weird markings around them.

Yun Che suddenly pique his eyes onto that fruit before slowly remembering Wu Ya"s fruit before he ended up being beaten thoroughly by him. He slowly spoke "Hooo. He finally decided to use it huh? Well, what are you going to do now, Li Yue?"

Another elder from the Wu Clan seating area suddenly rise from his seat and shouted "ZUYA, DON"T USE IT!!! It"s still under testing. You could lose your cultivation using that thing." Li Yue heard the sound came from the elder from the seating area. Remembering Yun Che"s advise, she decided to increase her speed towards him. It doesn"t matter she had to kill him. As long as he didn"t use that thing to elevate his cultivation.

"I DON"T CARE!!! THIS WOMAN HAS INSULT MY PRIDE!!" However, before Wu Zuya could threw the fruit in his mouth. Li Yue arrived in front of him before she delivered a kick on his face.

BANG!!!!

Wu Zuya"s face went drastic as he didn"t expect a sharp pain was delivered squarely on his face. Due to her sudden move, Wu Zuya failed to antic.i.p.ate it as she delivered a sharp kick just now and his so called fruit was catapult somewhere on the arena. Before he could react, she immediately empowered her sword before started to charge an energy waves before she shot one at him. He immediately use his shield to block it before using his hammer to gank on her.

Li Yue concentrate once more before her body started to blur and she avoided the hammer strike. Due to her third use, the mental toll was too much her to bear but she manage to hold it in before she appeared behind him. With that, she charged a sword wave and smashed it on his back.

Bang!!!!

The impact was too much as it sent him out of the arena and slammed his back on the wall surrounding it. It also smashed his spine as the wall cracks behind him. With that, Wu Zuya curse his luck and Li Yue as he lost his consciousness because of the impact. He was. .h.i.t full force by a Peak Sky Profound Realm and didn"t even bother to defend himself. Moreover, even higher cultivation cultivators won"t dare to take a strike as their body is weaker than their cultivation.

Li Yue"s robe fluttered in the air as the arena was quiet once more. Due to the excrutiating headache came from the technique, she fell to her knees as her mental prowess can"t handle another Table Hopper. She pulled another makeshift win just now as she prevented him from empowering himself.

Although she won, she did felt a little bit curious on witnessing his transformation but Yun Che"s advice stopped her from doing so. If he managed to empowered his cultivation to the higher level, she wouldn"t stand a chance. Even now she barely contain the power of the Table Hopper movement technique. If that stuck up elder used the fruit"s power, she wouldn"t even stand a chance. So, its better to be safe than sorry.

"Looks like she was smarter than I expected. It was kind of disappointing that I couldn"t witness another transformation from the Wu Clan. Looks like that advice was worth enough for her. I started to think she would face the beast he was transforming. Looks like she knew her own limit." Yun Che slowly smiled as he ended his thoughts. Li Yue was smarter as probably she took it from Little Fairy.

The crowds were quiet before one by one. All of them started cheering for her. "The first… She"s going to the tomb itself. The only woman in this selection was chosen as the first one. d.a.m.n, I knew I should bet more on her." The man sighs as he counted his loses for the day. He didn"t expect that Li Yue would easily take that Wu Zuya down.

One of the spectators suddenly appeared next to him before showing his purple cards contained his the prizes for his betting. "That"s your luck. I made a fortune. I was preparing to lose everything but the Heavens are on my side today."

"She defeated the Wu Clan?!? Did she know that his defeat just now will spark an enmity between her and the Wu Clan?"

"She doesn"t care because if she obtained that inheritance, even the Wu Clan can"t even pose a threat to her."

"I am sure the other winners after this will keep an eye on her. If she did obtained that inheritance, they can easily overpower her."

"Especially that monstrous swordsman."

With her win, Li Yue was obtained the first spot into entering that tomb. In her mind, she didn"t expect she made it this far. If it wasn"t for that technique she learned before she came here. She wouldn"t stand a chance against her opponents even if she had the same strength as them. She couldn"t expose herself just yet but that alone put all three of her opponents" advantage over her. Moreover, she kind of owes it to Mihawk. If he didn"t give her that small piece of advice, she might the one laid either alive or dead on the ground. She really owes it to Chu YueChan and Mihawk for giving her the opportunity. Then again, why did that Mihawk helped her? She was sure this isn"t about them being solo cultivators.

Speaking of that elder, the Wu Clan disciples and the escort elder immediately brought him away from the arena. The clan had lost face in front of the whole city and they also lose their ground. Moreover, they even lost that fruit he was holding before Li Yue smacked it off his hand. The escort elder immediately dispatched their disciples to locate the fruit as the fruit"s existence can tempt even the other clans. Eu Zuya even had the latest version of their empowered fruits. A fruit like that will create chaos if it spreads to the other clan. They were worried if other clans managed to recreate that kind of fruit.

Kon was observing from the VIP room sighs as he failed to see the kind of things the fruit was capable of. "Chee, I was hoping to see what kind of thing that old fart is going to transform into. That fruit really looked weird though."

"Yuu-kun once fought a similar cultivator. Someone wanted to kidnap me back then but he fended him off. Ahh, my hero." Retsu holds her radiating red cheeks as she remembered the reason why Yun Che protected her back then.

"Ehh? When"s that?" Cang Yue asked her. She didn"t know them for long and probably somewhere before their meetings.

"During our stay in the New Moon Profound Palace. He obliterated that stuck up grandson of that old coop." Retsu replied her.

"Stuck up grandson? You mean that Wu Ya? So, that crescent moon shape hole. That was him?!?" She exclaimed in shock as she remembered the giant crescent moon shape ravine cause so suddenly back then. She asked him but he dismissed her like he wasn"t responsible for it.

Retsu suddenly remembered that it was supposed to be a secret but since the cat is out of the bag, "Hnn, Ahh.. We didn"t tell you about that yet. That stuck up brat turned into a boar of some kind. That"s when he told me about the capabilities of those fruit. He called it an artificial Zoan fruit. Something like that. Well, that"s our Yuu-kun, always used some kind of terms which even I have trouble understanding. It gave them immense power but with cost of their cultivation."

"So, it"s a one off ability? That sucks." Kon stating his remarks.

Retsu nodded before she continued "Hnn, something like that. But the powers can go to half a grand realm even almost touch the peak of the realm. That woman is smart enough to counter that fruit before that elder consumed her."

Mio was listening to the whole story before she suddenly spoke "Dannsama is really something huh?"

"I bet he waited for that guy to transform if it was him. So he can thrash them all together. Kon-sama would do just like that." Kon spoke again,

"Hnn, only Yuu-kun would done just like that. Now, let"s just hope he put a grand show when his turn is up."

Li Yue became the first one to obtained the spot of the selection. She defeated all her opponents without using any martial skills. The audience was kind of disappointed she didn"t show any of her skills but at least she pa.s.sed the stage and has the ticket to enter the tomb. As she was back to her seat, she barely contained her excitement but the more she thinks about it, she was slowly feeling nervous and regret. She remembered Mihawk"s words about the tomb is a one-way ticket to d.a.m.nation. If she died in there, no one will ever know. The sect will cla.s.sify her as missing and someone will certainly be sad about her lost. She made a resolve to return alive from the tomb. She might offend and hunted down by other clans but at least she could fend them off in the tomb with her abilities. At least, she knew in her mind that Mihawk will not harm her. At least for now.

The other matches proceed as decided by the raffles. The battles were long and way more intense than the previous fights. The fighters teared each other apart as none of them willing to give the spot to enter the tomb. However, all that begins must come to an end. Winners were chosen and the spots are filled. Just like that, Li Yue and Mihawk knew their true final opponents in the tomb. These middle age men are the best of the best and they all came from the selection"s final. Yun Che didn"t have any problem facing them off but he didn"t know about Li Yue. She"ll became a target once those elders proposed an alliance against them.

After an hour has pa.s.sed, the seven slots were filled and the people can see the rest of the men and woman that were chosen to enter the tomb by tomorrow. All of them received praises and cheers from the people for their winnings but the rest of the great clans bowed their heads in shame as they were defeated by the hands of the solo cultivators especially the Burning Heaven Clan, Thunderfire Fortress. The Wu Clan and the Qin Clan. These clans and sects were considered the strongest in the empire but defeated in the hands of Yun Che and Li Yue. The clans were defeated thoroughly by them but they were sure that none of them are going to let this slide. But the deed was done and they could only see this through until the end.

The Xiao Clan was the only one in the people"s eyes that was famous enough to be noticed but they entered by default. The rest of the clans or sect were famous enough to be noticed but the audience gave their support as they fought their way through the matches.

With the seven matches are won, the announcer immediately announce "Now, the seven spots were filled we will proceed to our final match of the selection. The final match will decide whether the final spot is going to be filled by the Heavenly Sword Villa or the mysterious swordsman. We present our final match. Dracule Mihawk and Heavenly Sword Villa sect elder, Ling Hai."

Yun Che was on his seat suddenly raised his head revealing his yellow eyes and stoic expression just like how the real Mihawk would act. Elder Ling Hai was also maintained his composure as he too got up from his seat and face the stare of the mysterious swordsman. From looking at his eyes, he doesn"t know why but he felt some kind of excitement came from his heart as he saw the mysterious swordsman staring at him.

He slowly stood on the stone railings of his zone before empowering his voice with his profound strength. "Hmph, as expected from an unknown swordsman. Your strange yellow eyes caused even greatest men in this tournament tremble in fear as they look at you. Even if the people calls you "Hawk Eyes." I still wanted to fight you as a swordsman. It"s the first time I felt this kind of feeling in a long time. The feeling of wanting to cross swords with the strongest swordsman in my eyes." As he spoke, his robes flutters in the air showing the crest of the Heavenly Sword Villa. The rest of the audience immediately kept quiet as this is the fight between the swordsman from a sword sect and the mysterious swordsman of an unknown origin.

Yun Che slowly stood up before he stood on the stone railing of his seating area as well. His seating with the elder was coincidentally opposite to each other. He didn"t know whether it was coincidence or not but he really made it like he was facing his greatest rival or something. Moreover, the wind was strong breezy enough to cause his black robes flutters as well as he maintained his normally cool stoic look. This method might be boring but in order to keep in character, he had to play along.

If he was the one fighting him. He really wanted to say "What, you wanna fight or something?" but he chose not to. But instead, he spoke in a calm tone. "So, you want to figure out the distance between the two of us?"

The elder kept a calm face as he spoke "I don"t know but given myself as a swordsman, I wanted to fight and cross swords with you. My instinct tells me that you are more than worthy enough to fight gainst. I"ve been traveling around the empire fighting swordsman after swordsman. Eventually becoming a mentor in my sect. But, this is the first time I wanted to fight someone so badly. So, instead of using unconventional methods to win like tour previous fights. Will you do the honor of using that rumored sword behind you?"

Hearing that, Yun Che slowly spoke in his heart. "Ho… this old man really wants to fight me that badly? Well, shame I couldn"t use my Zanpakuto against him. Really wanted to use Tensa Zangetsu in public for a change."

He sighs before he spoke "Very well, I should show a proper gesture in fighting against the swordsman mentor from a sword sect." He slowly grabbed Yoru"s handle before slowly pulling the sword from his back.

SHING

The sound of the sword being drawn was heard across the arena. The sound of sharpness piercing the air as the black sword was drawn and the eyes of the arena was focused on it. The audiences" heart slowly went racing as he draws the black sword, Yoru from his back. Most of them were widening their eyes as they saw how the ma.s.sive sword was. What shocks them is the length of the black sword itself as well as the golden handle and he seems to have no problem holding it with one hand.

One of the audience finally spoke "He finally draw that sword. I was waiting whole morning for him to do that."

"I don"t know. I felt he was merciful enough by not using it on his previous opponents. He can even clash with other elders only using a dagger and his finger. If he could use that sword…."

"We can expect a proper fight among swordsman this time. That Ling Hai, he was previously known as the strongest swordsman underneath the Emperor Profound Realm. Even those from the Frozen Cloud Asgard couldn"t beat him. I wonder he clashed with the famous Chu YueChan?"

"Yeah, rumor has it that her strength was at Peak of Sky Profound Realm. But she was older than him for about six years right?"

"I doubt it. She might be famous but she was more of a lone cultivator. More like traveling from another place to another."

The city lord was also widening his eyes when he witnesses the full view of Yoru. "So, that"s the rumored black sword?"

"It seems my lord, rumor has it that the sword was at least an Emperor Profound Realm sword." The attendant"s reply caused some kind of shock to the city lord. He kept his calm as he replied "But it"s only a rumor right? A lone swordsman like him holding a weapon like that will bound get the attention of those greedy cultivators. Not to mention the eyes looking at that sword right now."

"It might be a rumor, but I can see some people look like they wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the sword and appraised it. I bet none of them were able to defeat him."

Seeing the black sword once more, Ling Hai was excited and replied "So, this is the black sword the people were dying to know. The shape might be strange but that sword holds significant amount of power. But rumors were only rumors. However, this elder had travel all over and saw various grades of swords. Yours were slightly different. Moreover, it felt much stronger than any swords I faced so far." However, the elder"s speech but loud enough for everyone to hear. Looks like he deliberately wanted to put Yun Che at a bad spot as he wanted to fuel the other clans to know about that sword.

When he heard the elder spoke, he sighs and said within his heart "Oi…oi.. Do you really wanted to put me in a bad spot, old man? If you make a remark like that, you"ll make those sects and clans swarmed me like flies to get Yoru. Well, they can try to get but good luck with that." He kept his calm and smiled as he wanted to show Yoru can only be commanded by one person. He slowly said "*Sigh, then why don"t you feel it for yourself. I haven"t drawn her for a while now and maybe I get a decent fight after a while."

Seeing Mihawk wasn"t fazed like he hoped for, Ling Hai gritted his teeth and said "You really are arrogant for an unknown swordsman. Now, let"s test the waters. Shall we?" Ling Hai draw his sword before waving them in the air. All of a sudden, light beams after beams slowly formed in the air as it forms a ma.s.sive crescent moon arc made up from sword lights. He focused his profound strength onto them as he spoke "Hmph, rather than showing you petty tricks, why don"t you take this from me? Heaven"s Might Absolute Sword, Moon Arc Sword Light!!!"

The ma.s.sive white moon arc made up of lights was finished forming itself in front of him. The audience and the city lord heard about the sword techniques origin from the clan itself but never expected they will witness it here. However, Mihawk"s reaction was indifferent as if the technique wasn"t enough to faze him. Much to the audience"s reaction, he kept his cool as he positioned Yoru behind the back of his head. Then, without any effort. He raised the sword earning the attention of everyone around him. Ling Hai immediately released the white arc made up of sword lights towards him.

Mio sensed a similar pose and she spoke "Is Dannsama going to do that?"

Cang Yue nodded before replying "I think so, he practiced it for several hours just to perfect it yesterday."

"Compared to his wave, that white arc doesn"t even worth a d.a.m.n." Kon spoke as he awaited the audiences" reaction the moment he decided to use it.

Retsu slowly smiled as she activated her eagle vision once more. "Let"s see how they react when they saw his version."

Yun Che relaxed as he single-handedly swung his sword down, what happens next was an unforgettable scene that would be remembered by everyone including Ling Hai for as long as they live.
