Gacha Sovereign

147 Tournament 2

"Let me explain the rule for you. As you might already know, the competition was only for those who are below 25 years old, Because there are too many participants this year for a total of 1430 Participants. We will have a preliminary round to decrease their numbers. We will decrease the number to 128 participants. We will separate them into four blocks, A, B, C, and D. There will be a battle royal for more than three hundred participants each block. That means we will choose 32 people from each block. Any weapon is free but no killing. You will be disqualified if you kill the other participants.

The next round will be one on one fight. You won't get an opponent from the same block. In other words, if you are from A block, you will fight one participant from B, C, or D block. Let us give a round of applause for the fighter who will compete today."

*Applause*

"Let's welcome for A Block 358 Participants."

Alex searched for Kenshin. since the Arena was very big, they can hold more than 500 participants, so 358 participants still a bit loose. Soon enough, Alex finally found him holding his katana. Another familiar figure that he found on the arena is the bald monk, he believes his name is…Itagaki Kyousuke. From what he saw, the cultivation from the participants is mainly in Early Qi Manipulation Stage to Peak Qi Manipulation Stage. There are only around 50 of them that have the cultivation of Martial Master Stage. And Itagaki Kyousuke seems to be the highest one with his 3-Star Martial Master Cultivation Stage.

"A Block Battle Royal. Start!"

*Clang*

Many sound produced by the clash of blades were heard. The situation becomes very interesting. Kenshin didn't unsheathe his sword. Two people chased him.

"Young Master Kenshin, we need you to lose here"

Kenshin frowned, "We didn't have any enmity. Why are you targeting me?"

He looked at his pursuers. Both of them are 1-Star Martial Master. Kenshin immediately came to a realization, "Soejima House!"

"That's right. You are already a useless Young Master. So keep being useless" One of them said.

…

On the VIP seat, Himura Takata stood up, "Soejima Ujitaka! How dare you do this!"

"Himura Kenshin, Don't talk without prove. They wanted to frame my Soejima House."

"You don't need to make an excuse. I know that you collude with Himura's House First Elder, Himura Soma's Father, to shake my position. If my son loses now, I will also lose my position. Do you think I'm a fool!"

"You are framing me too!"

"Shut up" Suddenly, the City Lord, Nakagawa Otoshi, spoke with a stern voice. "We are in the presence of Four elders from four Sects. Behave yourself"

"City Lord!" Both of them suddenly stopped their bicker. They are a 9-Star Martial Grandmaster Stage, but the City Lord is 2-Star Martial Lord. The difference was big. And there is still the elders from the four sects. Even they wanted to fight, it will only backfire to them. They can only swallow this for now. Especially for Kenshin's Father, Himura Takata. He clenched his fist. "Soejima Ujitaka. I will make you regret your decision."

"Hmph!"

…

In the arena, Kenshin is currently fighting with two 1-Star Martial Master. Although he appeared to be in the defensive. Alex can see from the side that Kenshin is playing for now. He seems to want to buy time. If he is chased like this, He didn't need to fight another fighter. Since many would think that he will lose sooner or later. Kenshin keeps running away from them.

Soejima Ujitaka started insulting about Kenshin cowardice since he is continuously running away from them. Of course, he was stopped by the City Lord once again.

Kenshin keeps running in the arena. Though he sometimes met some opponent in front of him. They are mainly in Qi Manipulation Stage, he can brush them off quickly.

358…

300…

200…

100…

The participants slowly decreasing. Kenshin still running away from his two pursuers.

"Brat, don't run if you dare!"

"We will finish you off"

His pursuers starting to be Impatient. Kenshin still running around the arena. He keeps looking at the other participants. When there are only 50 participants in the arena. He stopped.

"Haha…You finally stop"

"It's better for you to get off from the arena on your own rather than let us do it"

Kenshin is looking at them like looking at fools. He smirked, "You two really didn't know what happen all this time. You two have been inside my plan all along."

"What did you say?"

"He just wanted to confuse us"

"I used you two to keep the other participants away. We all are 1-Star Martial Master. I, who was chased by you two will be defeated sooner or later even if they didn't do anything to me. That means you are my shield for the whole time" Kenshin smiled, "Since we are almost done. It's time to clear some trash de gozaru"

"What!"

Kenshin appeared in front of them. He sheate his katana and swings it toward them.

"Splitting Sword"

All of them using a sword, This Splitting Sword managed to cut the first sword into two and blew the second one, His pursuers were surprised by this. Using this chance, Kenshin kick both of them outside the arena.

The Pursuers didn't expect something like this. They never expected that Kenshin's combat prowess was this high. After all, according to the information, he was only a useless who had a cultivation base but didn't have any combat prowess. But now, they are instantly defeated by him.

Kenshin immediately focused his eyes toward the other participants. Only around 40 of them left in the arena. That means, there are still 8 Strong Participants that need to leave the battlefield.

One of them suddenly appeared in front of him. Without saying anything, He swings his sword toward Kenshin. The way Kenshin now can counter this attack easily. Their swords clashed each other for a while. Before Kenshin used his 'Splitting Sword' once more and get rid of him from the arena.

*Ding Ding Ding*

"We have 32 participants from A Block who will compete in the second round!"

"Uwooh!"

Deafening cheers erupted from the crowds. Even the Family lords and the elders from the top sects also applauded. But two people didn't follow them and cheers. One of them is Soejima Ujitaka and the other one is, of course, Himura Takata. Soejima Ujitaka is glaring at Himura Takata, he seems very want to kill him at this moment. Himura Takata keeps his sly grin while looking down on Soejima Takata. His eyes telling him, 'I said I would make you regret.'

He, as Kenshin's Father, was also surprised by the sudden growth of his son, Kenshin. He looked at the youth in the arena, His face is full of pride at the moment. Soejima Ujitaka was also surprised by the sudden growth of Kenshin. But there is one thing that bugging him, is this really a sudden growth? Or he keeps his power as a secret just to unleash it at this moment?

If it the former, then it is not bad enough for him since Kenshin still has a chance to lose. But if it the latter, then, it means that Kenshin is very confident in his power. And if it is true, then he is deliberately making the engagement between him and his daughter vanished. With that, after cripple Himura Soma's power, he will control the Himura House. He started planning once again, If Himura Soma loses, He just needs to have his daughter, Isano, seduce him once again. If his memory serve him right, Kenshin is deeply in love with Isano from childhood.

If Alex knows what he is thinking, he will call him 'Fool'. Unless Kenshin is thinking with his d*ck not his brain, he will surely reject her.

The next battle royale is for Block B. Alex saw Himura Soma and Soejima Isano on the arena, he frowned.

"Both of them in the same block? If I'm not wrong, in the second wrong, there won't be any fight from the same block. In other words, they won't fight each other in the second round… Is it coincidence or is it rigged? But judging from the face of Soejima House Head who look like an old fox. It is most likely rigged. Well, I can't say anything since I don't have any proof for that" Alex looked at the arena, bored.

On the arena,

Himura Soma and Soejima Isano teamed up together.

"Isano hit him"

"Yes!" Isano leaped toward him and sent a kick.

They blew away the participants one by one. Soejima Isano is 1-Star Martial Master while Himura Soma is a 2-Star Martial Master. Most of the participants can't fight them alone. But no one was smart enough to form a small group and eliminate them. After all, Unlike Kenshin who has a bad reputation in the town since he was the so-called 'Former Genius of Himura House' or 'Fallen Genius' or 'Useless Young Master'. Himura Soma and Soejima Isano have an excellent reputation in the town. Most participants didn't dare to offend them.

They can't attack them, while Soma and Isano can beat them. There is someone who dares to fight them but was defeated instantly since he is alone. Alex was bored watching this boring match. He has watched the competitors who most likely go to the second round. Most of them are Peak Qi-Manipulation Stage and some are 1-Star Martial Master. The Quality of the fighters in this block was relatively lower from the previous block.

Alex looked at the other competitors. Most Martial Master was almost 25 years old. Only some genius from big families can have a young Martial Master. So, even if they won, they most likely won't be picked by the four sects.

When he is watching the arena, a presence coming toward him. He looked back and saw a beautiful young girl with silver hair. She is the one that he saw when Kenshin introduce the five big families, Nakagawa Hiina. And it seems that she is coming toward him specially.

"Woah!"

"Who is he?"

"Why is our beauty coming toward him?"

"He is just a 1-Star Martial Master."

"I will beat him in the arena."

Alex's face darkened when he listened to the crowd. It's really bothersome. She didn't have any relation with him, but he still needs to take the problem.

"Who are you?" Nakagawa Hiina who is in front of him finally asked.

"I'm not obligated to answer that, ain't I?" Alex just casually brushed it off.

"You!" This is the first time that she was treated like this. This is the first time she strikes the conversation first with the opposite gender. But, she was brutally rejected. She is very interested in Alex, he is only a 1-Star Martial Master but she didn't feel like she can win even though she is a 4-Star Martial Master. He never loses in a fight with the same cultivation stage. Her curiosity gets best of her, he can't help but check the young man up close.

(AN: I almost write, 'He has plot armor. That's why you got that feeling')

"How dare he!"

"He is playing hard to get"

"I will beat him in the arena!"

"I will kill him even if I will be disqualified."

"Our Goddess"

Alex sighed, he ignored the crowd and continue watching the arena. But the Nakagawa Hiina stand beside him, as he keeps looking at him.

"He dares to ignore our Goddess!"

"I will kill him right now!"

Even Alex starting to get annoyed by this. He is looking at the crowd, when Hiina saw him looking at the crowd, A flash coming to her mind. She glares at the crowd and releases her aura. The crowd shuddered when she started releasing her aura. They know she is pissed. They looked away, not daring to look at them again. Fortunately, there is no arrogance Young Master that is going to come and bothering Alex.

"I have chased them away, what is your name?" Hiina looks at him.

'Chased them away? Ptui, you are the one who brings them here' Alex was annoyed as he ignored her.

"Your name!" She started releasing her aura.

"Sigh…Alexander. Is that enough, then go away" Alex said.

"This is not your place, so I can go anywhere I want to go, including here"

"As you like"

"Hmph!" She pouted, she somehow forgets her original intention which is to observe him and his power, 'How dare he! I'm the prettiest girl in the town. And he dares to ignore me like this! Let see how long you are going to keep your act'

But suddenly, a stream of light coming out from Alex's body. The light stream started forming a small fox shape. When the light dimmed down, an adorable white fox has come to the stage.

(AN: Haha, Sherry the Thot Slayer has come)
