Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================================

"Now that everyone is ready. Let the battle...begin!"

A fight did not break out immediately like the previous time. Instead, the disciples on the ring were observing each other.

Arthur shrugged and decided to break the silence.

"So who is going first?"

The weaker ones tensed their muscles when he spoke and quickly got into a fighting stance.

Meanwhile, the three disciples that were ranked in the top thirty were no longer being subtle about their scrutinizing gaze.

Arthur looked at them and smiled, "Come on now, is there any need to continue pretending? I know you are out to get me, and so am I."

"You guys can join in on the fun between me and these three..." Arthur looked at the others as he pointed his fingers at those three disciples.

"...or you can fight your own battle and hope to last long, the choice is yours."

Arthur's words were heard by the spectators as he spoke a bit loudly.

"What, did I hear correctly? He wants to take on the disciples in the top thirty on his own?"

That was what most of the spectators paid attention to, and only the extremely perceptive ones were able to pick on a set of words that Arthur said.

"He said, that those three are out to get him...what does he mean by that?"

"I noticed it too, those three have had their eyes on him the whole time...something's fishy."

"Do they have an enmity with each other before this?"

Back to the arena, four disciples raised their intentions to forfeit and left the stage.

Now there were seven people left on the stage, Arthur included.

"What is with you and that arrogant smirk on your face? You think you can take on all three of us together?" One of the three couldn't take it any longer and speak out against Arthur.

"There is no need for you both to join this fight, I will take care of him myself."

The one who spoke stepped forward and showed his intent to battle, and the other two stepped back.

Those remaining could sense the tense atmosphere and two of them finally gave up after they weighed their chances in such a battle.

'Fuck just my luck to encounter these trio!'

"I forfeit!"

'There goes my chance, damn it! Why is my luck so bad?!'

"I will also forfeit this battle!"

Now there was Arthur, the three top thirty rankers, and one female disciple.

Arthur ignored his upcoming battle and looked at this female disciple who stood with a determined look in her eyes.

She had black hair and brown eyes, and with the outer court disciple robe on her she looked attractive but did not stand out.

She was staring at the only female among the three that Arthur is supposed to fight.

'A personal grudge then?' Arthur thought when he noticed the intense look of hatred in her eyes.

"I want to fight you!"

The female disciple pointed at the one she had her gaze on all this time. But as if to anger her, the one she called out to smiled but did not even look at her.

She wanted to speak out about her intentions again, but someone else interrupted her.

"You dare look elsewhere when I am in front of you!"

Immediately everyone focused on Arthur and his current opponent.

"Rock Smashing Palm!"

The disciple that stepped forward to battle Arthur attacked out of anger when he saw Arthur looking at the other female disciple.

But to his surprise, without looking at him, Arthur shot out his right palm.

"Nine layered waves, third wave!"

*Voom!* ing toward Arthur.

Even after that its strength did not dissipate and continued unto the disciple with great speed.

*Bang!*

The disciple dodged just in time and got serious.

But he gritted his teeth due to the manner Arthur used to attack him.

'He is looking down on me?!'

'How dare he?!'

'Just because he is a so-called seven-star genius?...I'll show him!'

"I will show you!"

*Vroom!"

The disciple erupted in anger and riled up his full power. The atmosphere around him changed immediately and the wind around him became unsettled.

His cultivation was revealed for all to see.

"Eight Rank of the Gold Core Realm!"

"I know this person, he is Cadmus, the 29th-ranked outer court disciple."

"Yeah, wasn't he at the seventh rank of the Gold Core Realm a few months ago? He has already broken through?"

Cadmus didn't stop at releasing his aura, he also went on to release his martial spirit.

"I am a new disciple so I don't know much, but what kind of martial spirit does he have?"

"You are about to find out. Cadmus has the Berserk Ape Martial Spirit, which is a Tier 10 Human Grade Martial Spirit!"

As they spoke an ape appeared behind Cadmus. The furs of the ape were a dark shade of red and so were its eyes.

"One more thing about his martial spirit is that it greatly increases all his physical attributes and makes him go a bit berserk. So he is not able to hold back when he releases his martial spirit."

"Roar!"

The roar of an ape was heard and a corona appeared around it. There appeared ten white rings, signifying its rank. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"I'll show you!"

Cadmus clenched his fist and shot toward Arthur.

*Swoosh!*

Due to the boost from his martial spirit, he was very fast and got close to Arthur in almost an instant.

He drew his hand back and his martial spirit mimicked him.

"Violent Ape Fist!"

A giant ape fist arrived before Arthur and it tore the wind around it apart as it descended from above Arthur.

Arthur stood there with a straight expression on his face and then he let out a sigh.

'I don't want to drag this out...sorry buddy, but you won't have the chance to display your prowess.'

The spectators noticed Arthur's lack of movement and wondered why he was not trying to dodge.

"Does he want to take it on directly?"

Many couldn't believe that would be the case, but then if it wasn't, Arthur should be dodging.

"Nine Layered Waves: Fourth Wave!"
