“He’s too strong!”“Impossible, how could a Strength fighter contend with an Agile?! Impossible!”The people of Starlight cried out, they could not believe what had just happened. Some only screamed, but only hollow noise came out from them. This was all almost illogical to them. Many clans were starting to regret their choices now. Had they known Zephyr was so powerful, they would have easily sided with the Khan.“The Khan has such a powerful fighter with them. Their future is bright and steady! No one can stop them!”“Damn it!” Some clans felt regretful from their passiveness. However, some other clans were snided.“Hmph, although Zephyr’s powerful, he could never defeat an Agile of level four! Soon, Zephyr will fall!”“Indeed, an Agile of level four is enough to take on all of Starlight! The Zane guardian was just careless!”The two combatants came to blows again as the other clans pondered on. Their battle carried on, they flew in many directions, and it destroyed the many
“Watch out, Zephyr!” the Big Elder called out frantically. He knew what would come next, and it was a very powerful sword technique. The bladed energy came rushing over in torrential volumes, like the powerful stream of a waterfall. This energy was coming straight for Zephyr. Zephyr’s heart raced, he knew he was in for a strong attack. He did not need the Big Elder’s reminder, he could tell from the start what came next was a powerful technique.The bladed energy came fast and sharp. It was 30 feet long, rendering the surrounding rocks and boulders into nothing but dust. The rune upon Zephyr’s forehead shone brightly, it was as though a flash of lightning had sparked. The bladed energy rolled over and consumed the place where Zephyr once stood. It did not stop there, it only stopped after everything within a hundred square feet was reduced to dust. This was not an ordinary technique.“No!” the Khan cried out as they noticed that Zephyr had disappeared. Zephyr had been instantly kille
Upon finishing his sentence, Lewis’ expression changed. An Ahi Royal had made a move against a small, insignificant clan. He could not understand why. “Master, we have no beef with the Ahi, why did they…”Zephyr waved his hand, signifying he did not want Lewis to press further. However, his expression was even direr now, an icy aura emanated from him. The Khan had lost over a hundred men in this fight. It was a horrible, terrible loss! He expected no less from the Zanes, Suns, and Leeds, but from the Ninth Prince? He did not expect him to interject as well. Zephyr’s hatred for him grew more than it could ever have.He turned his gaze to Motte. “You must take care of the Khan!” he commanded, his fists clenched. “Master, what are you planning to do?” Motte asked as he felt Zephyr’s intense energy buildup. Everyone present did. He had asked the question everyone dared not ask. “Hmph!” Zephyr huffed. He did not answer, he only left a trail of dust as he sped away. Before long, an ear-pie
The chief among them was the Academy elder. “Good elder, we’ve encountered many good apprentices this time!” one spoke to the elder with a smile. “Indeed. This time, I’m in charge of the Ahi Dynasty while my brothers handled the other kingdoms. Who knew my luck would be so good!” Another chimed in the conversation. “However, the royals here have no respect for rules and regulations. I heard they dared to interlope in the Tournament!” His tone implied annoyance. “Never mind, it’s a small matter. As long as we get to pick the best fighters, we’re good. We don’t need to quarrel with them over things like this,” the Academy elder said calmly.“Eh?!” Suddenly, the Academy elder’s expression changed. He quickly looked in a certain direction. “This energy signature… it’s...” Everyone present was an Academy master, each being a strong Agile. All of them could feel a sudden rush of energy from afar. “Is this not the signature of Zephyr Khan? Such anger, such violence… what is he up to?” questi
In an instant, the royal guards raised their weapons as they kept their gaze on Zephyr. Were he to make any sudden moves, they would not hesitate to protect the royals here. “Zephyr! Do not jest!” a Master commanded. Many were sharing his displeased expression. They were utterly annoyed at Zephyr’s actions. After all, they were often respected and revered, not disrespected and ignored like right now. “Me? Jest?” Zephyr spoke as he flashed a small smile. He turned his icy gaze towards the Masters, head intentions of teasing them! “You guys don’t even know what happened, do you? And yet here you are, blaming me! You old farts!”The fact that the Masters had not bothered investigating the reason for his arrival, then immediately putting the blame on him, signified that they were clearly protecting the Ninth Prince. “How dare you!” The Masters reacted aggressively, they could not accept Zephyr’s blatant disrespect. “I guess only our fists can do the talking, eh?” the prince teased. Seeing
Zephyr had suffered from the earlier scuffle. It could be shown in the streaks of fresh blood that trailed from his lips. The five Agiles’ combined attack had badly wounded him. If he were weaker, he would have died. However, Zephyr did not give up. He eyed the Ninth Prince with killing intent. He would not rest until the Ninth Prince was dead.Zephyr sighed, he brandished his sword once more, gripping it tighter. The people around could only wonder as to why Zephyr was so ferocious, so angry. They held their breaths as they observed the event unfold.The royal guards managed to arrive on time and surrounded the area. They blocked all entry and exit points. Not even Boxer and Yang were given an opportunity to leave. “Damn it, what’s happening? Where is Bruce?” Boxer asked, a face full of worry.“Never would I have expected a Strength of level nine to match our might! You are more than you are made out to be, Khan. However, your behavior has rightly angered us. You must pay for your
When Zephyr came to the palace, he had not wished to kill this person. However, Zephyr’s rage built up at the sight of his opponent’s mercilessness. Especially so now when the man he intended to kill watched on in glee!“Take my unbeatable Focus!” Zephyr said through gritted teeth. He waved his sword, calling upon his bladed energy manifold over.“What?!”Everyone present was shocked at such a display of power.“This is Focus of the Blade!”“Absolutely terrifying!”“Damn it, he has Focus! Stay back!”The Masters’ expression changed, quickly warning the others. However, it was too late. Zephyr’s skill was too overpowering, so much so that his opponent could not defend against it. It was but a second’s effort as Zephyr’s bladed energy engulfed his opponent’s energy. Soon, it found its way towards the Master’s body.“Stop!” an old voice rang. Zephyr felt his whole body start to slow down after. ‘Who is this?!’ he thought, as he felt his body be paralyzed. A strong power waved over
A great silence befell the palace. No one made a sound as they stared at Zephyr in disbelief. He had just disrespected the Master of Masters, Shaun Lee. It felt like a fever dream. No one had ever thought this day would come. Even Shaun himself had a look of surprise before it quickly turned into one of contempt. For the longest time, only the Ahi emperor himself could have contended with him. No one had ever disrespected him like this before. Yet today of all days, Zephyr Khan stood before him, among the eyes of many fighters, questioning his capability.It was insulting. Humiliating even. If it was not for him personally hearing this challenge, he would have thought he heard wrong!Shaun laughed with anger at Zephyr’s display of brazen foolishness. “Hahaha, what a foolish boy!” He proceeded to make the first move. One could see how infuriated he was to make the first move against a Strength of level nine.Blades danced in the air. Loud booms and cracks sounded throughout the sky.
