Wilbur chuckled at once. "You really don't have to, Senior." "Young man, it's very disrespectful of you to behave this way in front of a Sanctuary level cultivator," the elder frowned. Wilbur sighed. "I mean no disrespect. I just don't think it's very nice to battle a stranger." "How dare you! You should be honored that I even offered to take you in as my pupil. Very well. I won't push it since you so rudely turned me down, but I'm going to teach you a little lesson for messing with a Sanctuary level cultivator." The elder waved a hand after speaking, and a wave of rampant spiritual energy surged out, bringing about a howling sound. Wilbur frowned. He drew a circle with one hand, and the elder's blow disappeared into nothing. "Oh? It seems I've underestimated you." The elder was clearly surprised, even a little intrigued. He took a step forward, launching another attack at Wilbur. Wilbur sighed, retaliating with an attack of his own. Both spiritual attacks collided in
"Ultimate Rush." The elder roared the words loudly, launching three powerful strikes in a row. The spear shook with rampant spiritual energy, and three spear strikes shot out toward Wilbur. It was the Phoenix Triple Nod. Anyone struck by either of the spear strikes would be paralyzed for a second, which would be more than enough for an expert to kill the victim. With no other choice, Wilbur had to take out his thunder cleaver. He did not add any lightning energy to the cleaver, making it no more than a large cleaver. Wilbur slashed the cleaver through the air, bringing down all three spears with its blade. Following that, however, the elder's spear grew in size as it came barreling toward Wilbur's face. The two of them had been battling each other in close proximity, and the sudden expansion of the spear would usually be enough to pierce right through the opponent. Wilbur's cleaver acted like a shield, deflecting the elder's Spear Charge with the flick of his wrist.
Wilbur chuckled. "You're a brilliant fighter yourself, Senior." "No need for the pleasantries. You may have beaten me in combat, but I'm going all out now. I'd be careful if I were you," said the elder. Wilbur frowned. "Surely that isn't necessary." "Why not? I'm faced with an expert. I'm definitely getting a good fight out of this! If you manage to hold up for three minutes within my spirit barrier, my promise from before still stands," the elder replied. Wilbur shook his head in exasperation. "Are you really that desperate for a pupil?" "Many people can only dream of being my pupil, young man! Let me show you what real power looks like." The elder retracted the spear and shouted, "Wrath of Spear!" All at once, spiritual energy exploded from the elder's body and lit ablaze into spiritual flames. At the same time, a hundred spears appeared within a twenty-meter radius around both cultivators. The spears were all different in shape and size, burning brightly with overw
Wilbur furrowed his brows. The thunder cleaver swung out in a dangerous circle, and the dragon's head spear was reduced to dust. The elder took another step forward, now holding a spear with a tiger's head at the tip that let out a roar. Wilbur stood still with his cleaver by his side as spiritual energy flowed out. The tiger head spear was snapped clean in half, dissipating into the air in waves of rampant spiritual energy. "Now take this one!" The elder took his eighth step forward, and a spear with five chains dangling from it shot out toward Wilbur. Spikes grew from the chains as the spear flew, and the chains wrapped themselves around Wilbur. Wilbur let out a cry, spinning the thunder cleaver once and bringing it down. A burst of spiritual energy surged out, destroying the penta-chain spear. The elder was furious, taking his ninth step forward. A pale, wispy spear appeared in his grasp, almost like a shadow. Both men were less than five meters apart now, and the
However, while the elder's ultimate spear condensed, Wilbur had already muttered a few chants as spiritual energy surged from him in terrifying waves. He finished the spell, put his palms together, and shouted, "Boulder Dragon Bomb!" As he cried out, a gigantic dragon's head rose up from the ground in front of Wilbur. The dragon opened its mouth, spitting out a giant boulder. Wilbur had used this move on one of Chance Teft's pupils, Zachary Yanez before. The boulder was about half a meter wide, burning brightly with spiritual flames and covered in runes as it hurtled toward the ultimate spear. A deafening rumble shook the air around them and the ultimate spear was shattered in an instant. However, the Boulder Dragon Bomb did not seem to stop. It continued to spit out boulders at the elder. The elder's face paled, and he used up all the spiritual energy he had left to form a spiritual shield. With a loud rumble, the elder was able to deflect this incoming bullet. Howev
Sammy showed up soon and the two of them sat down in the living room. "You're finally here, sir," Sammy said, bursting into tears. Wilbur said, "Come on, don't cry. Tell me what happened." Wilbur honestly did not understand how someone as rich and famous as Sammy would be trampled on like this. Sammy eventually forced herself to calm down before saying, "Sir, my brother went to look for Ria to lecture her ever since we returned to Zealand. Ria's not admitting to anything and even said my brother was falsely accusing her." Wilbur did not know what to say. There was no actual proof, and there was not much that could be done if Ria insisted on denying it. "My brother refused to let it go, and the two of them went into many arguments… only for Magnus to get my brother arrested in the end for slandering an artist signed to his company, demanding an apology and compensation," said Sammy. Wilbur frowned. "Who's Magnus?" "Magnus Ray. He's the general manager of one of the bigge
Sammy sat on the bedside looking like a helpless little girl. It made Wilbur feel at a loss. "You won't think I'm being rude, right, sir?" asked Sammy shyly. Wilbur coughed and said, "It's almost Fall, so don't catch a cold." "Sir, I know that I don't deserve you, but feel free to take me if you want. I won't harass you, and I'll be honored. Also, I'm still a virgin," said Sammy while biting her lip and fully blushing. Wilbur frowned and approached Sammy slowly. She shut her eyes and lay down slowly. Then, he grabbed the blanket and covered her. He said, "Rest for a while if you're tired. We'll depart when the time arrives." She hurriedly covered her face with the blanket, and said in the quietest voice, "I got it, sir." He shook his head, sat on the bedside, and started to smoke. He could not bring himself to take advantage of her. Time gradually passed. She quietly snuck out of bed and got dressed. She stood behind him while blushing. He checked the time and sa
Sammy looked at a man in his forties with a suit and a slick back hairstyle. Wilbur nodded and went to the table. He said, "Mister Ray, I would like to talk to you about Dom Shandon." Magnus ate some sashimi and drank some wine before he looked at Wilbur calmly. He smiled and asked, "Who the f*ck are you to talk to me like that?" "You're someone with status too. Don't you think it's rude to talk like that?" asked Wilbur. Magnus laughed and said, "My politeness is for elites like us. Nobodies like you who came out of nowhere should feel honored that I'm even speaking to you." "What a joke. They dare send a rando to talk shop. I think you're crazy," mocked a glamorous woman next to Magnus. Sammy was infuriated right away, but she endured it. Wilbur looked toward the woman and asked slowly, "You must be Ria Quinn, right?" Ria mocked, "What's the matter? Do you need an autograph? You need to wait in line. I don't have time right now." Her words made those four people laug
