The biggest difference between an invincibilis fighter and a master fighter was in their life spans. It allowed a person to live indefinitely…The first thing that came into Zayn’s mind were the words ‘body swap’!It was because he knew that there was a limit to a human being’s life span, and it was just a part of nature’s law. No matter how well a human preserved themself, they could not fight against time. A living being needed to eat and metabolize. Cells would age eventually, and the body would gradually lose its ability to function.For all his martial arts prowess, Zayn could still feel that his body was aging every day. Theoretically, his life span could stretch to two centuries, but that was his limit! Even so, The Saint claimed that an invincibilis fighter was immortal. What could that mean?Zayn could not think of another reason for being summoned other than to be used in a body swap with The Saint!The only immortal creature known on Earth was the jellyfish, and even
The Saint paused for a moment before saying, “Zayn, come closer so I can have a good look at you.”Zayn had relaxed for a moment, but upon hearing The Saint’s request, he became uncontrollably tense once again. Up till then, he still had yet to see The Saint nor sense his presence. The entire time, he had been speaking to the empty air. The Saint was beckoning him closer when there was nothing to be seen in front of him?Could The Saint have already projected his consciousness and it was right there at that moment?Zayn was restless. Though The Saint had claimed he was not planning to swap bodies with him, he would not let his guard down. “Your Majesty, I don’t understand what you mean.” Zayn did not step forward. The Saint did not answer, and the enormous palace sank into silence once again. A minute later, The Saint spoke once again. “Zayn, you look a lot like my grandson. I have not been in touch with him for a long time. I miss him very much.”Upon hearing that, Zayn fe
It was Zayn’s first time taking his mother to meet his wife. He called up Faye in advance, and she panicked at once when she heard the news. Zayn could even hear the sound of her breaking something when he called. “Huh? My mother-in-law is out? Why is it happening so suddenly? I haven’t prepared anything yet… Oh god, what should I do?” Faye said anxiously.Faye felt rather relieved when she heard Zayn’s voice on the phone because it meant that he was safe. However, she could not help feeling frantic when she found out that Zayn’s mother was coming to meet her soon afterward. She had already been married to Zayn for so many years, but she had never met her mother-in-law. Naturally, she was nervous. Moreover, she heard from Zayn that her mother-in-law was the former Saintess in Sicut In Caelo and had a prestigious and respectable status. It would be strange for her not to feel uneasy. Zayn chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. My mom is very easygoing and she only wants to meet you i
“Lysithea, have you made up your mind?” Hayley asked with a frown. Lysithea nodded and said, “Mm-hmm. I’ve made up my mind. I’ll be back to visit you, Aunt Hayley.”Hayley sighed, but she did not try to persuade Lysithea to stay anymore. She said to Zayn, “Zayn, send Lysithea off.”“Alright, Mom.” Zayn had just nodded when Lysithea immediately said, “It’s okay. I can walk. There’s no need for him to see me off.”She said it in a frosty tone that confused Zayn. Could it be that he had offended her?Lysithea refused to explain and did not even glance at him before leaving. “Mom, what’s going on with Lysithea? Why is she insisting on leaving for no reason?” asked Zayn in confusion. Hayley gazed at him deeply and made a meaningful remark, “It’s not her home, so she won’t be comfortable here.”Zayn was still bewildered. Even if it was not her home, there was no need for her to behave so coldly, was there? They were close acquaintances. By noon, Faye came home and discovered t
The World Athletics Championship was also known as the Martial Arts Cup. It was a competition that Zayn had only recently been made aware of. It was jointly organized by several powerful countries, and its nature was similar to that of the World Cup. It was an extremely popular event that could affect the reputation of the countries involved. The difference was that the World Cup was a global event known to the public while the World Athletics Championship was a private event meant specifically for martial artists.Nevertheless, it was far more important than the World Cup!It was held once every five years, and when it arrived, countries from all over the world would send out their top contenders to represent them in the competition. The competition would last forty days, and the final champion would be selected through constant contests. Rheasia had not been the champion for many years. Indeed, the country actually had a low rank in the competition, making them an internation
Zayn had only made a breakthrough in his training and become a master fighter after enduring the dreadful agony of ingesting Ossiumol. On the other hand, the population of Murica was only one-fifth of Rheasia’s, yet they could produce so many master fighters?It was truly shocking!Liam continued the discussion by saying, “Other than Murica, there are a few other developed western countries with many master fighters, even our neighboring country Sol. I heard they’re sending two perfect-class master fighters to the competition this year. They’re determined to be the champion of this year’s Martial Arts Cup… It seems this cup will be more difficult than ever before!”The rest of the administrative personnel in the meeting room turned glum and sighed heavily.Zayn furrowed his brows as well. He understood the importance of the Martial Arts Cup that year and knew that it would be truly embarrassing for them not to be the champion or even the 1st runner-up when the competition was held
The meeting lasted a long time with the attending members not just from Insurgent Trifecta but also from Insurgent Duofecta and Insurgent Unifecta.It showed just how seriously their superior was taking that year’s Martial Arts Cup. What a waste that Rheasia was still at such a great disadvantage. There were no other candidates that they could send other than Zayn, but their superior did want him registered as a contestant. If that was the case, it would be almost impossible for them to win. However, since their superior had already made the decision, it was inappropriate for Zayn to comment further. He believed his superior had their own concerns as well. Perhaps they would be able to find a perfect-class master fighter from elsewhere to represent the country in time. Dick found Zayn after they walked out of the meeting room and invited him to another gathering.“Sergeant Larson, there’s an important dinner party tomorrow. Yando City Will be sending over the officers from thei
“But his arrogance went too far. His subordinates are so rude that they even made impertinent remarks about Sergeant Cheney. He’s so conceited, I can’t stand the sight of him. Makes me feel like thrashing him!”“He’s just a Tier-4 master fighter. What’s there for him to be so arrogant about? He’s nothing but scum in the presence of Sergeant Larson!”“That’s true. The chief instructor is renowned for being a perfect-class master fighter and one slap from him can kill that lad… Speaking of which, is Sergeant Larson not attending the dinner party today?”“I don’t know. We’ve been standing here for so long, yet we still haven’t seen the chief instructor. Could it be that he isn’t coming after all?”“Huh? It can’t be, can it? I’m still eagerly waiting for the chief instructor to put those people from Yando City in their place!”Zayn could hear the soldiers complaining from afar and furrowed his brows ever so slightly. The officers from Yando City were actually so arrogant that they sho
