2946 Let's Start
Everyone looked at Rean, who seemed genuinely happy to hear those words. Once again, their impression of Rean improved. They are all sword fanatics, and Rean was excited about being able to exchange moves with all of them. How could they not relate?
At the top of the palace, the Sect Master of the World Splitting Sect watched the fights with clear eyes. The more he watched Rean, the more he seemed to take a liking for the boy. "Amelia, who is that boy in the formation? He seems quite young and yet his sword mastery is exceptional." Rread latest chapters at novelhall.comelia turned to the guy. "Oh! Sect Master Diliy is interested in that boy? Just give me a moment, and I'll check it for you." Amelia then looked at Karev. Karev nodded and took out his CD. He checked the information of the contest inside and found the name registered to that platform. Finally, he looked back at Diliy. "Senior Diliy, his name is Asterix Larks... or so says the details in the contest registration. As long as the Werdlem Stone is an official one, we don't really check much into anyone's identities, so this name might be fake."
Diliy nodded. "So he isn't affiliated with any other Region, right? I can see his bones with my Spiritual Sense. No doubt he is as young as he looks. His cultivation doesn't lose much to the top disciples of my sect at a similar age, but his sword ability is definitely at the very top."
Diliy then turned to the other experts around. "This old man has a like for cultivators talented with the sword, so I hope none of you will fight against me for the boy. Does anyone have anything to say?" His body seemed to transform into a sword, and his words carried his own Sword Intent. The other leaders of the other regions didn't like Diliy's attitude. Everyone in the World Splitting Sect was like that. However, no one wants to find trouble with him either. It was only a boy who was a little good with swords. It wasn't worth the trouble.
"In that case, I also have someone I want," it was then that another voice came from within the experts. An old man with a scholarly appearance stepped forward. If one didn't know better, one might think he was just some old grampa from some mortal house in his last years. He was the Lincae Sect Master, Unitten Siiweri. "That boy my disciples are playing with. He caught this old man's interest."
Everyone looked over and soon noticed Roan and his game of Battlefield Board. He kept crushing the Lincae Sect Disciples one after another. Many games have passed already but Roan still hasn't repeated the same strategy twice. For Unitten, he was more alluring than any genius sword user.
Rean agreed and turned his attention back to his platform.
*Zush!*
Another member of the World Splitting Sect stepped on the platform. Looking at her, Rean narrowed his eyes. "Seems like you guys are finally taking me seriously." In the next moment, Rean's Sword Intent changed again. An aura appeared over it, giving a threatening feeling. The Fourth Stage of Sword Intent, Sword Aura. Rean could tell this woman wouldn't be as easy as the previous participants.
The woman shook her head slightly. "We were not looking down on you. You definitely have what it takes for us to consider you a kindred spirit. However, it was true that I wanted to observe your playstyle a little more. You are obviously excellent with the sword, but different from us, you also use the other parts of your body in combat."
Rean knew that. He had punched, kicked, and even done some weird acrobatics to support his swordplay. The members of the World Splitting Sect didn't seem used to this kind of style. It couldn't be helped. The one who taught Rean was Roan, after all. He added so many styles to Rean's sword that it was hard to say Rean had a style at all. "Does it bother you?"
The woman took a small sword from her waist before shaking her head. Instantly, an Aura appeared around it, just like Rean. Fourth Stage, Sword Aura. She, too, could use it. "No. It only makes me happier to be able to face such a different style. Now then, let's start."
And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
