"Great Apostle, huh? Don't bother coming up one by one! Why don't you all come at me at once? Don't waste my time!" Leon glanced at the Great Apostle contemptuously. "You are too arrogant, brat! I am more than capable of taking care of you on my own! Let me teach you the consequences of crossing the Spears!" The Great Apostle was once again enraged by Leon's attitude and charged toward him swiftly. "Know your place!" Leon scoffed and faced the Great Apostle's attack directly as he did earlier. "Die!" The Great Apostle narrowed his eyes darkly. Though Leon managed to defeat the Fourth Apostle, the Great Apostle assumed that the Fourth Apostle might have failed because he underestimated Leon, or because Leon had some sort of tricks up his sleeve. Since the Great Apostle was more powerful than the Fourth Apostle and was quite close to reaching the Advanced Almighty State, his power was almost unmatched by anyone in the Southern region with the expectation of the Southern Boss an
"So, this kid only managed to defeat the Fourth Apostle with a tool?!" The Grand Apostle and the others realized something. They were all confused about how Leon managed to defeat the Forth Apostle, who was in the Intermediate Almighty State. Until this moment, they knew Leon won by relying on a defensive tool. Since Leon's speed and explosive power fell far behind compared to the Forth Apostle, it was likely that the defensive tool he possessed was in the Almighty State, or he would not have been able to fend off the Forth Apostle's attack. "How cunning?!" The Grand Apostle muttered and instantly gave up on facing Leon head-on. Instead, he evaded Leon's attack swiftly, before proceeding to dart around. Since Leon could not compare to the Grand Apostle in speed and the Grand Apostle refused to face him directly, Leon struggled to defeat him and the two were instantly involved in a heated battle."As expected!" The Southern Boss sneered. He already guessed that Leon had a def
"Kid, the Southern Boss has seen through your tricks! Just give up and die already!" The Grand Apostle said. Upon a brief exchange with Leon, he realized that the Southern Boss was right about Leon having a powerful defensive tool. Though the tool made it challenging for the Grand Apostle to defeat Leon, Leon's weakness was his agility. Since he completely understood what Leon was capable of, the Grand Apostle decided to stop wasting time and planned to eliminate Leon at once. "What, are you going to kill me? Stop joking!" Leon scoffed. He had countless tricks up his sleeves apart from the Mirror of Sovereign, so he did not care if the Southern Boss knew about it. He merely refrained from using any of his other tricks on the Grand Apostle to get his guard down. "How stubborn! I'll show you what I'm capable of!" The Grand Apostle snorted and leaped into the air, before darting toward Leon "Bring it on!" Leon wanted the Grand Apostle to attack and did not hesitate to meet
Amid the Thompsons' despair, Leon stepped forward and applied the Phantom Steps, his figure turning into a blurred shadow. At the same time, the Grand Apostle's Thundering Strike pierced through the spot where Leon was once standing and caused the dirt on the ground to rise into the air. As the dirt in the air dispersed, Leon disappeared from everyone's sight. "Huh? Where's Leon? Where'd he go?" The Grand Apostle was shocked and confused at first. "Can it be that, the Grand Apostle's attack is so powerful that he blasted Leon into pieces?" "That has to be it!" ... The Spears and the Hiltons instantly concluded. They all saw that the Grand Apostle's Thundering Strike pierced through Leon's figure and they realized that Leon was likely blasted by the Grand Apostle's true energy to the point that his body exploded. "No! Was Mister Wolf killed by the Grand Apostle?" Arthur and Angus felt stricken and stood frozen in place. Just then, the Southern Boss roared, "No! Leo
"Old man, I told you that you can't compete with me in speed! Just give up already!" Leon mocked. With that, he launched the Phantom Steps once again and employed the Earthly Plunder at the Great Apostle. "Thi- This isn't possible!" The Great Apostle gasped in disbelief. He assumed that Leon could not match him in speed, yet to his bewilderment, Leon somehow managed to increase his speed a few folds within a short period, and no matter how the Great Apostle tried to escape, he could not evade Leon's attract. "It's possible and you should just accept your demise!" Leon scoffed, the energy gathering around his finger formed into a sharp blade that was sent toward the Great Apostle's chest. "I- It's all or nothing!" The Great Apostle gritted out and launched a counter-attack at the very last moment. "Baam!" Following a loud collision, their attacks clashed. The Great Apostle only launched the counter-attack at the last moment and did not wield his full strength, so he coul
"Can it be that Leon is really in the Intermediate Almighty State?" Realization dawned on the Southern Boss. He jumped to conclusion and assumed that Leon was in the Peak Overlord or Semi-Almighty State at best earlier, yet Leon's speed seemed to surpass the Grand Apostle, and he managed to defeat two of the Four Apostles. It could no longer be considered a coincidence and Leon's victory could not possibly be because of the defensive tool he possessed; it became evident that Leon was likely a martial artist in the Intermediate Almighty State as well. "Right, that has to be it! This brat has been concealing his strength! How cunning!" The Southern Boss's expression darkened. Though he could not confirm his theory, he could tell that Leon was not far from reaching the Intermediate Almighty State, if he was not already in it. On top of that, Leon possessed a powerful defensive tool, and it began to make sense that both the Grand and Forth Apostles lost. He thought back to how
"Take another blow, old man!" Leon charged forward to attack the Grand Apostle on the ground to eliminate him at once. "Don't you dare!" The Southern Boss roared viciously. Upon learning that Loen was a martial artist in the Intermediate Almighty State, he dared not to underestimate Leon and leaped toward him without hesitation. "Southern Boss, it's me you need to worry about!" Arthur shouted and scoffed. The Southern Boss stopped him multiple times from rushing to Leon's rescue and it was finally Arthur's chance to retaliate. He darted toward the Southern Boss and swung his arm, releasing a wave of powerful energy that stopped the Southern Boss in his track. The two instantly erupted into a heated battle. Meanwhile, Leon's attack was inches away from the Grand Apostle. "No!" The Grand Apostle gasped in fear as he rolled on the ground to evade Leon's attack. However, Leon's Phantom Steps were far too swift and he struggled to escape from the range of attack. "Don't
"Southern Boss, why don't you focus on worrying about yourself? Take this! Stormy Punch!" Arthur roared. Taking advantage of the Southern Boss's distraction, he launched the most powerful method of the Thompsons: Stormy Punch. A tremendous amount of true energy emerged from the palms of his hands and darted toward the Southern Boss. "Damn it!" The Southern Boss paled and backed away swiftly. However, Arthur's power was far too strong and the Southern Boss struggled to get away from his range no matter how hard he tried. "Don't think that the Thompsons are the only ones with an Ultimate Progressive class method! Take my Divine Kick!" Running out of places to escape, the Southern Boss leaped into the air and launched a powerful kick to meet Arthur's Stormy Punch. "Baam!" The attacks launched by Arthur and the Southern Boss clashed. The Southern Boss, who fell short in strength, struggled to cope with Arthur's Stormy Punch and was sent flying. The Southern Boss did a bac
