Before Elistan even had tto react, Benedict threw a punch that sent him flying. Benedict moved so quickly that Elistan did not even have tto react.
Elistan pierced his saber into the ground and used its momentum to propel himself back onto his feet. Then, he turned around and flung his saber outward. A sword form cut through the air and whooshed toward Benedict.
Benedict quickly moved his feet. Instead of retreating, he darted forward, dodging to avoid the sword. He then slapped Elistan across the face.
The slap could be heard clearly. Although Elistan was using spiritual energy to protect himself, he still found himself getting slapped square in the face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBoth Elistan and Benedict had achieved mid-Mystique Loyalty Realm. Additionally, both of them also had tangible gold cores. The only difference between them was that Elistan spent most of his tpracticing his cultivation in the mountains. The only fights he ever got into were with his fellow disciples in his sect. He had little to no experience fighting for his life.
Meanwhile, Benedict had garnered sexperience under his belt during his tin the Divine Strategy Squadron. He had been on the frontlines before and killed hundreds of dozens of enemies on the battlefields.
Additionally, his grandfather, who was a Profound Oriental Realm expert, had provided him with one-on-one guidance. He might have only achieved mid-Mystique Loyalty Realm, but his battle skills actually placed him within the ranks of having achieved late Mystique Loyalty Realm.
He could easily have killed Elistan earlier but had decided to show him mercy because there were members of the Zen Heart Sect watching them.
Though the Zen Heart Sect was merely a second-tier sect, they were still headed by two Profound Oriental Realm experts.
If Elistan were related to one of those Profound Oriental Realm experts by blood, it was likely that not even Benedict's grandfather could manage to protect him.
He could pay no heed to his safety, but he had to be mindful of his comrades in the Divine Strategy Squadron.
"I've lost..." Elistan hung his head low, a dejected expression on his face. He was one of his sect's outstanding talents. Every the fought his fellow disciples, he was able to defeat them without much effort.
However, today, he had been utterly defeated by a Mystique Loyalty Realm expert from one of the worldly sects.
"This man isn't an honorable fighter, Elistan. You only lost because you had gotten gravely injured by the concealed weapon he used!" Conrad tried his best to comfort Elistan. "Are you feeling alright? I heard that those who use concealed weapons like to incorporate poisons into their weapons as well. You only lost because you've been poisoned!" Elistan shook his head as he sighed. "I've lost, and that's that. You don't have to try and make up excuses for me!" He knew perfectly well whether he had been poisoned or not.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe injury that the concealed weapon had caused him could be discounted. This young man standing before him was much faster and more powerful than he was.
Laverne gave Benedict a long look.
Elistan was much more powerful than she was. She had not expected him to get so utterly destroyed.
Were the martial artists from these worldly sects all so powerful? "I've won, so I hope you'll do as you promised!" Benedict stuffed his hands into his pockets and gave them all nonchalant looks as he spoke.
"It's the Misty Templar Court who wants to borrow the tents. Elistan is from the Zen Heart Sect, and he doesn't represent us!" Laverne said haughtily as she tilted her chin. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesThe look in Benedict's eyes changed. "What about it? Are you thinking of comparing notes withas well?" Laverne sneered, "You've achieved the late Mystique Loyalty Realm while I'm still at the early stage of the Mystique Loyalty Realm. Wouldn't you be embarrassed to compare notes with me?" Content belongs to en.kikistories"How about if I fight you?" June got to her feet. She released her Profound Reality Realm aura as she stood up. Ethel hurriedly said, "Laverne, she's only achieved up to the Profound Reality Realm!" าวน A look of suspicion appeared in Laverne's eyes as she whispered, "Don't be fooled by appearances. These guys are extremely crafty. Something is definitely up if even a martial artist who has only achieved the Profound Reality Realm dares speak up!" Content belongs to en.kikistories"Leave if you aren't brave enough to fight!" June gave Laverne a look of disgust.
Then, she turned to Dallas and said, "Let's head back, Mr. Cricton. I don't think they'd dare to rob us in broad daylight!" Dallas smiled as he nodded. "Let's head back!" The watching members had bored looks on their faces as they shook their heads and turned around to leave.
Maggie said aggrievedly, "There are so many mosquitoes in the mountains, Laverne. I don't want to be bitten by them again tonight!" Laverne gritted her teeth. "I'll fight you!"
