Ch 39: Mountain Gorilla Body

"Can you announce the result?" Alex looked at the deacon and asked

At this time, the deacon in charge of the outer sect finally reacted and announced, "Alex wins the battle. From now on, Alex will be ranked tenth in the Outer Sect!"

The Deacon never thought that Alex's strength would actually be so strong, probably reaching the Innate Stage even though he was only at the Fifth Level of Enlightenment Stage. However, he had not heard of any large families sending their disciples to the Floating Cloud Academy recently.

After obtaining victory, Alex walked down the stage without even turning his head around.

The previously tenth ranked outer sect disciple, who had been knocked off the stage with a single slap of his, was completely stunned. If it wasn't for the fact that Alex was wearing the outer sect disciple's clothes, he would have thought that some inner sect disciple had come to make trouble for him.

Just like this, Alex took tenth place in the outer sect.

It was a pity that not many people followed him here to spectate. His scheme had been a failure. But he was confident when this event will spread, it will definitely attract the attention of others. But it was still not enough. He had to do something more.

"This won't do, I have to quickly attract the attention of the higher-ups, otherwise, I would not be able to earn many Energy Points and if I won't have Energy Points, I'll not be able to duplicate treasures from others."

Thinking of this, Alex looked at the Deacon and said, "Ahm! Deacon Max, I want to challenge to the disciple ranked ninth in the outer sect!"

"Are you out of your mind?"

The deacon shouted out loud when he heard this. At the same time, Alex once again received a few hundred energy points from him.

The deacon looked at Alex with surprised eyes and said, "You have to know that the disciple ranked ninth in the Outer Sect has already broken through to the First Level of Innate Stage about a month ago. Are you sure you want to challenge an Innate Stage warrior with your cultivation at the Fifth Level of Enlightenment Stage?"

Alex was confident in his strength. He was sure that he could definitely win a battle against a martial warrior at the First or Second Level of Innate Stage. He nodded his head and said, "I'm sure! Please help me challenge the ranked ninth disciple!"

The deacon did not say anything anymore. He sighed, looked at Alex's serious face, and nodded before saying, "I'll send someone to inform him. Do you want to fight now or later?"

"Now would do!" Alex replied.

.....

The disciples gathered around the Battle Arena were already shocked. Now that Alex wanted to challenge the Ninth Ranked disciple of Outer Sect, they were again given another wave of shock. They could not help but look at Alex, this newcomer, in a new light.

It did not take long for the disciple ranked ninth to arrive at the battle arena. Before coming here, he had already learned everything that happened here. He was surprised that a newcomer was able to defeat the disciple ranked tenth with a single attack.

He quite admired Alex's strength but also hated him. In his eyes, Alex challenging him was the same as humiliating him.

It has to know that there was a huge difference between an Enlightenment Stage warrior and an Innate Stage warrior. If it was someone with the same cultivation base as him or stronger, it would not have caused him to become furious, but being challenged by an Enlightenment Stage warrior made him feel humiliated. He could not help but want to tear Alex apart.

Alex looked at the coming person. He was a big young man with a tanned body and curly hair. Though he was wearing clothes of the outer sect that covered his entire body, it still could not hide the muscles on his body.

Alex looked at this person's attribute panel.

[Name: Neon Belix.

Cultivation: Innate Stage Level 1.

Cultivation Talent: Top Grade Cultivation Talent.

Unique Talent: Mid Grade Speed Talent, Top Grade Wing Attribute Technique, High Grade Gold Attribute Technique.

Martial Arts: Iron Hammer Fist, Wind Blade Cut, Thousand Blade Curve,...

Special Physique: Mountain Gorilla Body (Low Grade).

Weapon: Black Iron Blade.

Other Treasures: None!]

Alex was surprised to see that the disciple ranked ninth in the outer sect, Neon Belix actually has a special physique named Mountain Gorilla Body.

What caught his eyes was the grade of the special physique. He did not know previously that even special physiques have grades.

When he saw Asna's and Slivya Rosefield's special physique, he could only see the 'unawakened' status beside their special physique attribute. It was the first time he saw the grade of the special physique.

Maybe, it was because the two girls' special physique had yet to awaken that it did not show the grade of their physique. On the other hand, Neon's Special Physique must have awakened, causing its grade to appear.

Alex wanted nothing more than to copy the special physique. He had hope that with just gathered energy points, he might be able to duplicate the special physique.

Thinking of this, he immediately tried to duplicate it.

[Duplication failed!]

[Originator doesn't have enough Energy Points!]

Alex sighed when he saw this. Right now, he had more than 10,000 Energy points but they were still not enough to duplicate Neon's special physique.

It has to know that duplicate Low Grade Cultivation Talent or other Unique Talents would not consume 200 Energy Points. But he could not duplicate Low Grade Special Physique.

Alex could not help but let out a disappointed sigh.

.....

"You are the one to issue me a challenge?" Neon arrived in front of Alex and asked coldly.

Alex nodded his head and replied indifferently, "Yes, I wanted to try out my strength, but the tenth ranked was too weak. I hope you are strong enough to make me use my full strength!"

Neon snorted and said, "You are arrogant, but it doesn't matter. No matter how arrogant you are, it would not make you win the fight. Since you dared to challenge me, be prepared to suffer heavy injuries!"

Alex chuckled and shook his head. This time, he did not say anything and directly jumped onto the arena even before the deacon told him to do so.

Alex knew that this was going to be a difficult fight. After all, Neon was not only an Innate Stage Level 1 martial warrior, he also had a special physique that could make his strength much stronger than the martial warrior of the same cultivation level.

Neon's true strength might even threaten Innate Stage Level 3 martial warrior.

So, no matter what, he has to be extremely careful while fighting Neon Belix.
