The legendary battle

Northern Kingdom, south of the city of Yol an unusual battle was taking place. The battle extended over a hundred meters, 2 groups clashed, on one side of the immortal skeletons numbering only a few dozen individuals, on the other human soldiers numbering several hundred individuals.

The victory was already decided even before the battle began. It is a one-sided massacre. Obviously it was the skeletons that savagely slaughtered all the soldiers because although their individual strengths are extremely close, the skeletons don't have to worry about their lives. They don't even have a thought to start unless they've reached rank (E).

In the middle of this battlefield was a very ordinary youngster, his expression rather cheerful as if he was enjoying a good show. Yet no soldier could be found tens of meters around him, as if it was a no-go zone.

And that was indeed the case, anyone who even came close to this place would have their head decapitated. But there aren't many such idiots around, just by sensing the aura of the two-meter-tall monster next to the ordinary youth, even the best F-rank would become petrified with fear.

From time to time you could even see drops of blood falling from the skeleton's sword. Yet even if all the enemy soldiers despaired in front of these skeletons which could regenerate to infinity, the 3 dreadful auras lying behind them discouraged them from any notion. They could only fight until a sword or a spear took their lives.

Of course this was the effect of William's [Immortal Army] skill but no one could know which is enough to despair anyone until his strength is rank (D) or above.

Seeing this scene, Edward, Frederick, and Charles were already sweating profusely, because if these skeletons could regenerate immediately that means the monster next to William could, too.

Even Yol's patriarch, Arthur, who was outside the town gate with the rest of the soldiers had a few cold sweats. He immediately rejoiced at having made the decision to defend this genius.

Taking a deep breath, Edward glanced at his "friends", nodded his head slightly then with a single kick rushed towards William, Edward crossed in less than a single second 50 meters, less. in a second he can reach William's location.

While he was still only ten meters away he felt a tremendous pressure weigh on him. Followed by a huge sword which came before him. Edward only had time to shift his position slightly to the right and his left arm instantly pulled away from his body.

Surprised by the pain of losing his arm and the breath throwing him off balance in the air, Edward couldn't control his landing and landed miserably only ten meters in front of William. But as William gave Edward a mocking smile, he too responded with a mocking smile.

It was at this point that two people "teleported" in front of William, but a sword appeared out of nowhere in his right hand and keeping his left hand in his jeans pocket he calmly resisted the attack of two rank experts. (E) forming a meter diameter crater below William followed by a huge shock wave but William didn't budge an inch!

Two people who have traversed mountains of corpses and trained for over 100 years with the sword failed to surprise a high school student even Edward who played the bait instantly lost his arm!

Arthur is undergoing extremely contradictory emotions at the moment, because if it were him instead of William he will undoubtedly die!

After all, the number of people who can withstand the onslaught of several of the same rank as theirs are all favored sons of the heavens. All of them are extremely rare, William is probably the only one within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers. In this world have given them the nickname of:

Divine Warrior!

They are warriors with unique constitutions that allow them to have a body that is many times stronger than other people at the same rank.

William's [Warrior] class grants him a similar effect. William's Player body is absolutely perfect which allows him to have the perks of a strong body but with mana comparable to the regular wizard but this is the class that will really make William stand out from the crowd.

The class only grants bonus stats, but it's this unique effect that defies the skies! However, William has not yet leveled up enough with his class to rely solely on his body to fend off all enemies.

It is the combination of his [Warrior] class, his [Limit Breaker] title and especially his [Sword Mastery (D)] that allow him to achieve such an effect. Indeed, the skills by crossing each level are totally transformed with each row crossed.

[Sword Mastery (D)]: Increased attack and defense with a sword by 30%. Decrease the opponent's attack by 30% if he has a sword and a mastery lower than rank (D)

This shows the potential of the [Soul King] skill side effect which is amazing. Indeed [Soul King] submits the soul of the defeated opponent and he to pay homage will allow his King to copy one of his skills.

Panic swept through the bodies of Frederick, Charles and Edward, the latter having long since withdrawn his mocking smile as he barely managed to stand with a hideous face covering the leaking blood from his left arm.

But William didn't give them time to breathe, he charged directly at Edward, Charles and Frederick with his sword in hand. The sound of collisions echoed again covering the entire battlefield, catching the gaze of many soldiers but they could only see 4 auras, 3 white and one black all the time meeting in collusion causing huge shock wave. But even the soldiers could see that the three white auras were slowly losing ground.

William could see that the faces of Edward, Charles and Frederick were getting uglier and uglier as the wounds accumulated on their bodies.

"What did you really think you could beat me?" It's so ridiculous… "William said with an extremely mocking face. Indeed William was only playing with them all this time, not even allowing the master swordsman to participate in the fight.

Edward, Frederick and Charles's stats were even slightly higher than William's, but William's possession of the skill [Sword Mastery (D)] makes him feel like he's fighting with just children. to raise their swords for the first time.

On the other battlefield as the corpses of hundreds of soldiers scattered all over the place and the atmosphere grew darker and desperate seeping through every pore of their bodies. An extremely intimidating aura suddenly emerged among the soldiers.

"Damn, that pressure I recognize it!" Exclaimed a soldier

"Yes, this pressure weighing on us strangely resembles the Patriarchs" The soldier next to him replied as he blocked a skeletal warrior's sword with his own sword.

Boom

A huge explosion occurred. The gazes of everyone present converged on William's very spot and the Patriarchs were drawn in temporarily stopping the fight.

William could see after the dust dispersed that there was a huge crater several diameters in depth and width. Within it, a tall figure could be found giving off an enormous white aura rising to several feet in height.

"Hahaha miserable skeleton, you can't get up now can you ?! Said Axel the new rank (E) as his face was filled with disdain for the skeleton and at the same time filled with happiness for his successful climb to rank (E). He already began to imagine himself as the Patriarch leading hundreds of strong soldiers to conquer a new city and being respected by tens of thousands of people.

Around him William could recognize the remains of his skeletons. Their bones split into several thousand pieces throughout the crater. But before anger could even wash over him 3 more auras erupted in one scattered across the battlefield.

Ding

[Congratulations to the host on the successful promotion of a Swordsman Disciple (E-)]

But William could not feel the slightest trace of happiness for the awakening of the system, this new rank (E) annoyed him at the highest point. As if the 3 swordsman disciple guessed William's intentions, they sprinted towards Axel leaving a dark aura behind them each arriving from a different side of the crater.

As Axel began to sense the new danger from him, he wanted to quickly lift the sword in his right hand but couldn't feel any weight, he looked down, seeing his right hand on the ground with his sword still hanging. with. But before he could feel the pain, he noticed a dark blur come up to his left hand and then it flew away.

Then he suddenly started to feel pain from all over his body. Pieces of his body began to fly all over the crater painting him with blood. As he smashed a skeleton into thousands of pieces he died in exactly the same way and in excruciating pain.

All of the enemy soldiers witnessed the scene as their willpower began to crack, breaking their future cultivation path. All of them fell to their knees seeing how the goal of their lives died so easily and miserably.

Even Edward, Frederick and Charles began to turn white, so white that some people might mistake them for corpses.

Their auras weaken immediately and they even struggle to stand up as they see the scene unfold before their eyes.

Unlike ordinary soldiers they have better eyesight so they could see how this new soldier died.

If this soldier died in such a way then their death might not be better. At this thought instantly they thought to run away unfortunately their thoughts were seen through. William immediately stopped them by giving them each a quick punch in their stomachs, ejecting them tens of meters.

They stayed on the ground not even being able to get up any more because a sword was positioned on each of their necks. The swordsman disciples had already returned covered with their dark aura.

Edward the bravest of the 3 cowards spoke first:

"I concede victory to William, the Divine Warrior"

Followed by the speech of the other two cowards:

"I concede victory to William, the Divine Warrior"

Edward, Frederick and Charles can be described as cowards among the ranks (E) but among the 'mortals' they are unparalleled existences in strength or courage otherwise they could never have become ranks (E) with insufficient willpower.

We can even say that among 10,000 people if one of them said to be the 2nd most courageous, no one would dare claim 1st place.

Hearing the words of the 3 patriarchs William nodded with a slight nod at the same time ordering the skeletons to resume their swords. Normally William would have killed them but he received the following notification:
