The hardest people to deal with were the ones who knew nothing of the situation but tried to interfere out of concern. Ken, who was currently in front of Jason, was one of those people.As a response, Jason could only disclose some secret information."Since you've made your decision, I won't interfere then. But no matter what, make sure to value your life. You can always make another attempt as long as you survive," Ken solemnly spoke to Jason.Jason felt flabbergasted and chuckled, "In the end, you still are not confident in my abilities!"At this point in time, it was likely that no one in this world was confident that he would succeed.Under the night sky, Jason turned around and returned to his room. "Why would your uncle come here in the middle of the night?" Madison asked Jason."Nothing much. He just came to take a look since he passed by." Jason chuckled."Oh. Are you actually hiding something for me?" Madison asked Jason vigilantly."Nothing." Jason decisively shook h
The trio were dazed when they heard his remarks. 'This guy's thought process is simply too unique. Aren't we talking about the invitation letter? Why would he start talking about the second rank?'"He's just the highest-ranking person on the heavenly leaderboard. He's not significant at all. I'm afraid that he is nothing but a pawn used to test the waters. It won't mean anything to me." Jason shrugged and handed the imitation letter to Niall. Then, he entered the medical center.The trio looked at each other and subsequently realized that Jason, who had antagonized the entire martial arts community, would not be bothered about Dorian anyway.He would become nothing but a laughingstock if he could not even defeat Dorian.In the end, the thing that they admired the most was Jason's calm and collected demeanor. After all, aside from Jason, it would be nearly impossible for anyone else to behave this way when they were facing such a massive problem."Let us wait and see! He is about t
"I just asked you a question. Why would you change the subject?" Madam Blossom grunted coyly.'There are no grudges between Dorian and that man. Then why would he challenge him?'"I am left without a choice," Dorian spoke calmly."Is that actually anyone in this world that could force you into doing anything?" Madam Blossom seemed surprised.As the first rank on the heavenly leaderboard, Dorian was considered on a league of his own while everyone else was beneath him. Madam Blossom could not deny that she deeply admired Dorian, but she still felt no affection towards him."I owed a favor to the Babylon," Dorian spoke calmly."He's here." The next moment, Dorian's gaze turned sharp as a figure had already appeared by the river. The final ray of light of the sunset coincidentally illuminated that figure, who seemed like an angelic being as his white robes were stained golden.It was naturally massive news to hear that Dorian Yates, first rank on the heavenly leaderboard, had chall
Madam Blossom looked around and then glanced at Jason shyly, her watery eyes would evoke sympathy from others."Sir, I admire your character. I am willing to fight on your behalf," Madam Blossom Spoke softly.She seemed utterly seductive as she swayed her attractive body. People nearly lost composure as they looked on."There is no need. It's better for me to handle my own affairs." Jason calmly glanced at her and then shook his hand.He was unwilling to owe anyone a favor and unwilling to receive assistance from others."Dorian Yates?" Jason glanced at Dorian, who kept Durendal sheathed behind his back. "I wonder if you are deserving of the emperor's blade?" Each of the ten legendary blades had its own myths and legends. Meanwhile, Durendal was famous due to its association with an emperor who slew monsters with this very blade.With a hum, Durendal was unsheathed, and an overwhelming surge of sword energy was released.Dorian did not dare to underestimate this man. He feared t
By the lake, Jason flew up to the skies. A terrifying aura erupted within his body. It had completely dissipated all the chaotic sword energies that surged around him.A golden light appeared on Jason's palm, and it formed into a massive projection in the air. It was about to grab this gust of sword energy forcefully.The manifested golden palm finally clashed with that sword energy. However, that palm remained as steady as a rock no matter how much the sword energy struggled.Eventually, the sword energy dissipated, and Dorian's expression turned pale. Meanwhile, Jason landed on the ground and took a step back."This sword attack is decently powerful. Do you have anything stronger for me?" Jason calmly asked Dorian.While they were battling, there were intruders that slowly sneaked into the medical center.They were composed of people from Abbott Temple, Green Sect, Eagle sect, Ante Sect… Nearly every large faction within the martial arts community had sent people here.Niall a
Dorian was already defeated before Jason displayed any of his abilities. This was definitely a massive impact on his ego as a prideful person, making him feel lost and hopeless about his future.Jason's overwhelming strength made him feel doubtful about himself."Are there any elders remaining in this lineage of yours?" Jason asked Dorian.Dorian instantly raised his head and stared at Jason in disbelief. He hailed from a mysterious lineage that only proliferated through one single descendant. Hence, no one in this world would know about their existence.It was fair to assume that he had appeared out of nowhere and successfully seized the highest rank in a heavenly leaderboard. Almost everyone in this world knew nothing about his origins as they failed every investigation that they launched, almost as if Dorian had actually appeared out of nowhere.After some time, everybody no longer cared about identifying his origins after the repeated failures.Thus, it was obvious that he wa
Numerous attacks were unleashed towards Dustin within a breath because of that. Meanwhile, it was impossible for him to receive help since both Sannuit and Niall were currently suppressed by their respective opponents.When the attacks were about to land on him, it suddenly disappeared without a trace. At the same time, all of those attackers slumped onto the ground, and the scene instantly became silent.Everyone instinctually raised their heads and looked up, only to see a figure dressed in white. He seemed to be powerful, and his expression was as cold as ice."Raphael." Jason appeared in front of Raphael within a flash."Grandmaster, please save him, save him," Dustin cried hysterically.It was the first time Dustin referred to Jason as his grandmaster. Obviously, Raphael had not hidden his relationship with Jason from Dustin, but none of that mattered to him at that moment."Master, I have brought shame upon the Stardust lineage," Raphael mumbled after he seemed to be rejuve
It was already midnight when he had made his way to Green Sect's location. A crescent moon could be seen in the sky. As if a massive monster cast its shadow over the entire world, the moonlight illuminated the Green Mountain.A gust of sword energy instantly manifested, and the entrance to Green Sect was destroyed.At this moment, all of the Green Sect's members raised their heads and saw a figure standing in mid-air. Under the moonlight, his robes swayed in the wind, and he seemed like an otherworldly being."Who dares to act presumptuously in our Green Sect?" A grunt was heard.Several figures appeared at the same time. Ever since its inception, nobody else had provoked Green Sect this way. Back then, they were already exhausted after dealing with Ava, the Master of Heaven's Gate. Yet, they had not expected that someone else would come to cause trouble after they had dealt with the previous issues.They wondered if Green Sect was actually perceived as a weakling that anyone coul
