Chapter 146 The Battle Begins!
And even though he was within the 5th Dan of the True Qi realm at age 26.
Of course, there were others within the 6th Dan who were stronger than he was.
But it was an undeniable fact that he was an absolute genius amongst them all since he was the youngest person in the sect\'s history to reach the 5 Dan so fast.
Those even at the 6th Dan were over 125.
So...Hayden Ghin was somewhat of a legend and the price of the sect... even though he was still an outer disciple.
As one knows, only after advancing to the 7th Dan would one be accepted into the Inner Sect?
.
~Thump. Thump. Thump.~
Very quickly, Hayden Ghin followed the map on his card, leading him to his battle point.
He looked around vigilantly at the street world he found himself in.
He was in an open space with countless rocks and cliffs.
It looked like he was in some rock crater space, with no sight of vegetation around... just brown dust and countless rocks.
Of course, the high cliffs were the street buildings, with doors and windows.
Of course, he could see the people watching but couldn\'t hear them for some reason.
It was like they had been muted, with only the sounds of him and nature flooding through his ears.
The sky above was clear and blue, with several birds roaming around, making it all the more believable that he was somewhere other than Wenji Town.
Hayden calmly activated his live stream, allowing his drone to hover around him for a while.
And almost instantly, the barrage flooded in.
"Look! Look! Hayden has begun his battle!"
"F***! Where is this place?"
"Eh? Upstairs, aren\'t you within the town?"
"No... Since it\'s only the outer sect competition now, I decided to stay within the sect and continue reading my X-Men manual until the day when the Inner sect competition would begin. But who would\'ve known that I would miss out like this?"
"Hahahahahaha! My sister did the same thing too and is now on her way to the portal. Heh. Who said that outer sect competitions were boring? It\'s better to come now and observe and learn a few tricks before your competition date."
"I\'ll go! Why didn\'t I think of it like this? No! I have to come out and watch too!"
....
In a heartbeat, those inner sect disciples who always found Outer sect competitions boring quickly left your courtyard to witness the grand scenes and fights.
Even the core disciples also came out as well.
Hey! Just the scenery changing alone was enough to you\'ll them out.
With that, more and more people were now on the move.
Hayden waited for no more than 2 minutes before his opponent finally arrived.
It was another 5th Dan disciple.
The guy calmly bowed with his hands cusped: "Brother Hayden. Please advise me."
"Likewise," Hayden replied while gesturing to his opponent.
~Ding!
Instantly, a voice then echoed out within the scene.
[Hayden Ghin vs Mhal Fu… Everyone knows the rules… Battle commencing in 3...]
Hayden Ghin and Mhal Fu took their fighting stance.
[2....The atmosphere around them became tense, with the audience and even Chu Che\'s group zooming their eyes in without so much as blinking.
[1....]
Hayden Ghin clenched his fists.
[Fight!]
~Swish!
In a flash, both parties rushed toward each other like crazy.
And now, the battle had finally begun.
"Tiger Fist!"
~Boom!
Hayden Ghin jumped to the side in the nick of time, avoiding the deadly attack that shattered the ground beneath them.
Everyone watching was shocked.
Was this strength that of a 5th Dan cultivator?
The elders couldn\'t go sitting up again and taking another deep glance at Mhal Fu.
"I rely on! His sprint speed is incredible! The boy\'s fist power alone isn\'t a joke as well."
"That\'s for sure! He is indeed a tough one. It looks like he\'s going to give the Hayden boy a hard time."
"This is just the first battle. So I only hope that no matter which of them gets eliminated now, both of them could still be able to make it to the top and get chosen to represent us... After all, they still have 4 more battles with other opponents to determine whether they should get permanently eliminated or not."
"Yes! can you imagine the surprised look on the faces of those bastards from the other sects when our disciples stand against them? Looking at Mhal Fu, it\'s clear that he\'s still within the 5th Dan. But his strength is purer and stronger than what we have been used to all these years. So could this be the power of the Park?"
...
Everyone watched the battle deeply.
But when Mhal Fu\'s sword started glowing a faint red, they all jumped even more.
What did they just see?
(°0°)
With bulging eyes, the barrage and the audience almost went down on their knees in awe.
Lying trough! Mhal Fu was about to use Kratos\' rage of Fury, wasn\'t he?
Hayden looked at Mhal Fu and couldn\'t go nodding in appreciation as well: "Brother Mhal. Your skills are indeed impressive."
Mhal Fu smirked: "Thank you, Brother Hayden. I\'m determined to win our sect honor this year."
Hayden smiled as well before calmly removing his weapon too.
And what happened next left even one fainting even more.
~Vrrrmmm!
The chain in Hayden\'s hand glowed a bright reddish-orange color before returning to normal again.
"Brother Mhal, shall we begin?"
"Of course!" Mhal Fu answered, making Hayden\'s smile broaden.
"Good… If so, then GET OVER HERE!!!"
