"Yes!" The Four Apostles strengthened their attacks at the Southern Boss’s order and Leon was eventually forced to stand at the South-west position of the formation. "Great! That kid's in the Death Spot! Let's focus our attack on him and get rid of him!" The Grand Apostle beamed and ordered the others. The Four Beasts Formation was a type of ancient divination and the Death Spot was located at the South-west direction. Since Leon was forced into the Death Spot, this was their best chance to kill him. Without hesitation, they all launched the Thundering Strike at the same time from all four directions. "Oh, no!" Leon gasped. The Four Beasts Formation was ever-changing and Leon struggled to dodge the attack from two of the Apostles, not to mention an attack from all four of them. Not daring to treat this lightly, he fired the Phantom Steps in full force in an attempt to dodge their attack, but the attacks were coming from all directions and no matter how hard he tried, he
"Leon, a- are you alright?" "Leon!" Iris, Cynthia, and the others were stunned when they saw that Leon was injured; they desperately wanted to hurry over to check on Leon, only to be stopped by Yuri. "Miss Young, it's too dangerous there. You can't go!" Yuri said. He stayed back with Iris and the others, and with the protection of John, Henry, and Chandler, they were safe for the time being. Meanwhile, three of the Six Guardians stayed behind with a few martial artists from the Hiltons to protect Rodney and Joel. If Iris, Cynthia, and the others ran into the battlefield, they would become the target for Rodney and Yuri refused to let that happen. "But," The four women hesitated. They all knew that they were too weak to be of any help, but Leon seemed to suffer severe injuries and they were all worried sick for him. "Iris, don't come over! I'm fine. Don't worry!" Leon consoled them and struggled to stand up with a hand on his chest. Though he was injured, he was also
"Mister Wolf, the Four Beasts Formation is too powerful. You can't handle it! We need to change our plan and retreat!" Yuri shouted in an attempt to convince Leon to run. "That's right! Mister Wolf, please leave with Yuri and Roanne. The Thompsons and I will stay behind to stop the Hiltons and Spears! Don't worry, we will protect you at all costs, even if it means the death of us!" Arthur agreed along. Upon hearing Yuri's words, realization dawned on Arthur. Since the Thompsons and Leon were all struggling to win, there was no doubt that defeat awaited them and the only solution left was for the Thompsons to focus their forces on letting Leon, Yuri, and the others escape. So long as Yuri and Roanne escaped alive, the Thompsons' legacy would live on and the others would gladly die for it since it was still better than having every last member of the Thompsons slaughtered. "That won't be necessary! Elder Thompson, Yuri, don't worry! I've already considered a way to deal with this
"Old Thompson, enough with your blabbering! Don't even dream of running away! The Thompsons' days are over and you should give up already! Take this! Divine Kick!" The Southern Boss scoffed. Taking advantage of Arthur's distraction, he launched a powerful kick, while Devon executed the Mirage Strike, aiming at Arthur's legs in perfect synchronization with the Southern Boss's attack. "Damn it!" Arthur paled. He was already struggling to fight the Southern Boss and Devon simultaneously, and the fact that they attacked again while he was distracted caused him to find himself in danger. It would be soon that Arthur was defeated. "Elder Thompson, hold on! I'll come over to help you once I get rid of the Four Apostles!" Leon shouted. He desperately wanted to defeat the Four Apostles and rush to Arthur's rescue, but the Four Apostles surrounded him and were yet to resume the Four Beasts Formation, so he was yet to locate the weak point of the formation. "Why you!" Arthur gritted
"It's over!" The Thompsons' hearts sank. Since Leon was in the Intermediate Almighty State and had a powerful defensive tool, Leon had a great chance to escape when the Four Beasts Formation was not activated. However, now that the Four Beasts Formation was launched again, they all assumed Leon missed his last chance to run. "How arrogant!" Contrary to their despair, the Southern Boss and Devon sneered and stared at Leon as though they were looking at a fool. They all knew that the Thompsons and Leon were at a disadvantage, but since there were a lot of formidable martial artists among the Thompsons, Leon might have been able to escape if he listened to Yuri and Arthur and ran earlier. However, despite knowing that he could not win against the Four Apostles, Leon insisted on staying and if they were right, the Four Apostles would kill Leon on the spot. Before they could celebrate their victory, what happened next shocked them to their cores. "Bring it on!" Leon stepped forw
Following the Grand Apostle's order, the others swiftly altered the formation so that the position where Leon was standing became the Death Spot. "Die! Take this! Thundering Strike!" The Four Apostles sneered, before launching mighty attacks from all four directions at Leon. Since Leon was now standing on the Death Spot, his demise was inevitable. However, what happened next stunned them all. Leon darted away from the Death Spot and landed on the Live Spot, escaping their attacks with ease once again. "Th- that's not possible!" The Four Apostles were utterly shocked, as they all assumed that Leon found the Live Spot by luck, only to be proven wrong. Considering how complicated the Four Beasts Formation was, one could not simply attribute Leon's success in finding the Live Spot twice to mere luck, and they all realized that Leon might have seen through the formation. Shocked, none of them could understand how Leon managed to do so, nor could they accept it. "It's my ti
"Out of my way!" Leon was prepared for the attacks from the other Apostles and waved his arm, sending a few poisoned daggers at them. "Those are poisoned daggers!" They gasped. They heard from Joel that Leon possessed a poison that killed upon contact and seeing the blue glow on the daggers, they instantly realized that Leon covered the daggers in poison. Not daring to stop, they darted away from the daggers. Taking advantage of that, Leon continued with his attack at the Grand Apostle and aimed directly at their chest. "Damn it! Here goes nothing!" Seeing as he could not evade the attack, the Grand Apostle launched a powerful counter-attack to fend off Leon. "Die, old man!" Leon narrowed his eyes coldly. He knew that his overall strength was in the Intermediate Almighty State, so he was not much stronger than the Grand Apostle. If he went up against the Grand Apostle forcefully, he might be able to injure him, but would not be able to kill him. Once the Grand Apostle h
"How can this be?" The Southern Boss and Devon recovered from the initial shock and instantly fell into despair. The Four Apostles worked for the Southern Boss and he trained with them multiple times before, so he knew just how formidable the Four Beasts Formation was. When wielded by four martial artists in the Intermediate Almighty State, even the Southern Boss, who was in the Advanced Almighty State, failed to break free from the Four Beasts Formation. Only highly talented experts in ancient divinations who were in the Advanced Almighty State or above could see through the Four Beasts Formation, yet Leon, a relatively young man, managed to accomplish it and kill the Grand Apostle at the same time. The Southern Boss was shaken to the core as he struggled to comprehend the situation. "Great! Mister Wolf broke the Four Beasts Formation and killed the Grand Apostle!" "Wh- What a miracle!" ... Contrary to how the Southern Boss and Devon reacted, the Thompsons were overj
