392 THE MARTIAL COMPETITION
The 1st round of the competition was divided into 4 battlefields, each containing 100 participants who were going to fight till death. The competition was pretty fierce and the number of forces w3ho had arrived to take part was huge.
The city itself was ruled by two monarch tier powers namely, Hun manor and Dark-Fire sect. There were even rumors of these powers having the backing of a Qi Dominator, but Long and his avatars didn’t need to verify that.
The geniuses from the dark-fire sects were sure to come, and so were those from very major powerhouses within the nearby cities surrounding this one. The major sects were the Dark-Phoneix sect, the Black-blooded sect, the Iron-Martial house, Sovereign’s Hall, the Steel-fist collegium, and many more.
The avatars were instructed by Long Tao to proceed with extreme caution to not reveal they’re true identities while attracting the attention of every powerhouse within the area. Long Tao decided to leave one avatar here and it w2oul be better to leave it within a powerful force.
The Hun manor had appointed the board of judges and had made sure that the geniuses from various sects would clash against each other from the very start. The clash between them was the main attraction of this competition and was to be held at later stages.
The brackets were shown and thankfully no avatar of Long Tao was facing against each other in the first round. The judges called upon the participants to climb up the stage and one of the avatars did. Once all the participants were gathered, the start of the competition was announced.
“The outcome of the match is already fixed. Three geniuses from the top powers around us are going to take the top 3 spots for the first battle. Let’s just hope that the other 7 who are moving to the next round are decent.” One of the judges spoke to another.
“We can’t be sure until the fight is finished. What if a variable appears and changes the flow of the matches? We just need to watch and rate them properly.” Another judge said, and the rest of them agreed. That is true. Rather than showing favoritism, they were supposed to just rate the participants.
The top three participants of the first match were from the Dark-Phonix and Dark-flame sects. They were the match favorites and were expected to take the top three positions within this first match. The judge came forward the next moment and signaled the beginning of the matches.
.....
The participants began to clash against each other, but everyone was avoiding the trio from the top sects. They were scared to face the three contenders as they were part of the peak forces, and were sure to be strong within their realm.
The avatar was standing in one of the corners, not initiating a fight with anyone. It is better to just ignore the battle around and focus on what comes your way. As expected, soon enough one of the participants rushed towards the figure standing alone in the corner with a sword in his hand.
The avatar didn’t even react as the attack landed on its shoulders. It didn’t even flinch from his position.
‘so this is the position of cultivators within this world. It is quite similar to people from those low-grade sects. I am impressed that independent cultivators had such power. This world’s cultivator is quite powerful when compared to the Qi continent.”
The avatar completely ignored the attacks of the cultivators, which seemed to aggravate him even more. He used his most powerful attack, but the avatar’s body was forged with the energy from hell, and since coming here, the strength seems to be multiplying.
The attacks didn’t seem to work at all. Even other particip[ants and audience members began to look in that direction. After some time the avatar became bored of this process and punched the guy directly in the abdomen, sending him flying onto the sidewalls, cracking it up in the process.
Other participants saw this and categorized the avatar as a potential danger. They wanted to gang up on him and take him out. Four cultivators moved at the same time and attacked the avatar. To the surprise of everyone though, the avatar seemed to have no interest in even using his energy arts. he managed to beat all of them with physical strength.
“We seem to have an interesting situation. Who is that guy?” One of the judges asked. The more they saw the avatar in action, the more the was increase in their anxiety. By now, the avatar had been completely obliterated by 15 participants, with physical strength alone.
The avatar continued to stay in the corner, but this time he wasn’t approached by anyone. Everybody was worried about this variable after the 15 participants who tried to attack him were smashed to the ground or thrown off the stage altogether.
” Who is that guy? He doesn’t seem familiar to me.” One of three geniuses spoke to another.
“I don’t know. He seems to be quite strong. This would be an interesting fight.:” Another genius spoke.
“What do you say, we kick these pests out and start with the actual match?” The other two nodded when they heard this suggestion. The three figures moved out and began to eliminate one participant after the other.
Minutes later-
Only 10 people remained on the stage. The judge was about to announce the result, but one of the geniuses moved forward and stood before the avatar.
‘I have no interest in competing with these mongrels. You, on the other hand, are different. I would like to fight with you.”
The man said before attacking the avatar with a power fist art.
“Now this is interesting.” The avatar said to himself while using a small amount of energy to cover his body and deflect the attack. ?he next moment, the avatar turned his body and used the hell energy to carry out a fist art from the Hell-forge sutra,
He activated his acupoints while doing so, and attacked the man directly in the face. The attack was so powerful that the so-called genius blasted back while flying, unable to withstand the attack.
