Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao
Chapter 74 The Outer Court Rankings VIII: Defeated In One Move!================================
"Nine Layered Waves: Fourth Wave!"
Just as a giant ape fist that tore through the air rived before Arthur, he retaliated with a palm attack of his own.
"He is taking the punch head-on!"
*Boom!*
Both attacks collided and it caused the air around them to be pushed out. And just as people thought that they were evenly matched, Cadmus coughed out a mouthful of blood and Arthur pushed his palm forward with greater strength.
*Vroom!* *Vroom!* *Vroom!*
Four mighty waves of essence energy were shot out of Arthur's palm that was in contact with his opponent.
*Boom!*
Cadmus shot out of the arena like an arrow that was shot from a bowstring.
*Bang!*
He crashed heavily on the ground, causing a great amount of dust to cover him. He coughed out blood twice and went unconscious.
"What...just happened?"
The spectators were shocked, as they didn't expect the 29th-ranked disciple to be defeated in one move!
"One move?!"
"This means he is strong enough to be in the top thirty!"
"Wait, did no one else notice that he used the fourth wave of the Nine Layered Waves Technique!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"This is shocking, he had learned the technique up to the fourth wave in just a month, and that may not be his limit!"
The other two top thirty rankers were dumbfounded.
But just as everyone was looking at Arthur with shocked expressions, the sound of an arrow was heard as a projectile shot toward the female to thirty ranker.
"Wha-?!"
She barely reacted in time and dodged, but she was still injured with a visible cut on her arm.
"You little bitch!" She roared in anger and summoned her martial spirit which was a pair of wings.
Just then three more arrows arrived near her in an instant.
"Shena, settle your grudges quickly and come assist me!" The other ranked spoke.
Shena nodded and her wings flapped.
*swoosh!*
She dodged and a spear appeared in her hands and she engaged the other girl in battle.
"It seems like you forgot how weak you are before me, little girl!"
The other girl who attacked Shena had summoned her martial spirit with a Bow and Arrow spirit.
The Bow and Arrow spirit allowed her to form arrows made of essence energy and it also gives her enhanced senses and great marksmanship.
Soon, both girls were engaged in an intense battle away from Arthur. And the way they fought, it was clear that wanted to seriously hurt each other.
No one knew what kind of grudge they had, but most were more interested in what was about to happen next.
"Shena is ranked 26th in the Outer Court Rankings. And the other guy, Akin is ranked 22nd."
"With how easily Invincible was able to defeat Cadmus, he should be able to beat Akin right?"
"Maybe, but you know that Cadmus was a bit careless in that battle and didn't even have the chance to use his full strength."
"That's right, now that Akin had witnessed Invincible's power he would approach with caution."
The disciples discussed the battle as they watched.
The elders also made comments on them and were writing a few things on paper.
The task of the elders in this competition isn't just to watch. But also to play the role of judges and watch out if there would be any disciples that the sect should pay attention to.
Back on the stage, Arthur looked at Akin with a bored expression on his face.
Arthur yawned exaggeratedly and said, "What now? Are you going to just stand there and wait for your partner to join you?"
Akin frowned but didn't say anything. He was calculating in his mind a strategy to take down Arthur.
'With what he displayed, he should be as strong as I am if not stronger. It appears that his prediction was true...we would not be able to defeat him.'
'Rather we will try to make him reveal some of his abilities...'
"Still thinking of what strategies to use against me? Don't bother, there is nothing you can do...wait why I am wasting my breath?"
Arthur shook his head and released his aura. After that, he took a step forward.
*Tap!*
"You guys messed with the wrong guy..."
Akin saw that Arthur had intended to attack and immediately summoned his martial spirit.
"Yellow Earthen Shield! That's his martial spirit. It is a defense type Tier 1 Profound Grade martial spirit!"
Immediately the martial spirit was summoned, A transparent yellow energy shield covered Akin in a two-meter radius.
"So you are a tank eh?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAkin furrowed his brows in confusion as he did not what Arthur made by that statement. He did not say anything as he was the type that acted more than he speaks.
'Of course, he won't get it. They don't have gaming terms in this world after all.'
'An attack-focused cultivator, Cadmus. A speed-focused cultivator, Shena. And a defense-focused cultivator, Akin.'
'From their build-up, they should have worked as a team, but they miscalculated, an error on their part. But I don't know, what is it with people underestimating me in this world?'
'Well, you won't be underestimating me for long...'
Although Arthur knew that when he is being underestimated, it gives him the advantage to do things smoothly and catch his enemies off guard.
'But I still don't like that feeling...'
He had already decided to have as many hidden cards as possible. But that does not mean he had to hold back too much now.
'So I won't let you underestimate me any longer...'
'I have read enough of how protagonists in cultivation s will be looked down on all the time...I will not be one of them...let me show you.'
'What it means to be invincible!'
``````````
At a hidden location within the sect.
A mansion planted on a mountain covered by most and a formation that would keep invaders away could be seen.
Outside the said mansion, the Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect stood straight and looked ahead.
Soon, he saw a giant flying spirit beast approaching.
