A Challenge

Cao Zhen looks at the masked man in front of him, as fear clouded his own mind. Everyone knew how strong Mors was, not even showing a fraction of his power as he defeated every opponent so far with a single move.

Now thankfully, by good luck, Cao Zhen had only fought people around his level in this tournament. While Mors and Zhihui took care of the stronger and more dangerous opponent.

But now he stood in front of Mors without a chance of winning. The smart thing will be to surrender and walk away and be happy with 4th place. Cao prayed to the Celestial Dragon for a miracle.

As the announcer ready his voice to signal the start of the match. Mors raises his hand, catching everyone by surprise. Putting some QI into his voice, he speaks for everyone to hear.

"I believe everyone is tired of these one-sided fights. I for once wish to skip the boring part and get right into the action."

Mors said as he focuses his eyes on one of the VIP areas, the area where the lord of the city, Bai Yimu is watching from.

"Great Lord Bai! Don't you wish to see a portion of my powers? Let me fight Wu Zhihui right now, a battle for second and first place. While this young man and the remaining contestant fight for third place"

As Cao hears this, his eyes light up with hope. He knew he have no chance to win against Mors, but against another normal cultivator, his chances of earning 3rd place increased!

Bai Yimu looks at this request with curious eyes. He would be lying if he said this tournament was fun. With Mors and Zhihui's easy victories, there was no real entertainment.

But now one of the true contestants is also bored, requesting to fight someone of equal power. If this was before, he would laugh at the rouge cultivator face. But now things were different. For laughing as such a strong and talented cultivator will sure to come back and bite him in the ass.

Even if he can't recruit him, another sect or clan will, and with countless treasures. Mors will rise through the ranks with freighting speed. But as he thinking took some time, a woman, with long flowing black hair enter the arena through one of its doors.

Her voice is full of QI as she spoke, ignoring the countless eyes on her.

"Great Lord Bai! I wish for this fight, it is time to skip the fat and enjoy the meat! I will show you a battle worthy to remember"

Mors turns his head around as he looks at Zhihui. A simple smile on his face as he walks to the other side of the arena. Cao is long gone, continuing his prayer from the waiting room, wishing that the Lord of the city accepts this match.

as the audience talk among themselves, their voices creating a sea of voices and sound. The lord of the city, Bai Yimu, stood up with a smile on his handsome face.

"My subjects and my guests have gotten bored with these one-sided fights! I say that Qu Zhihui and Xiong Ming will now fight for second and first place!"

As the crow burst into cheers, their blood pumping as the battle everyone was waiting for finally happens. Zhihui enters the arena stage. Looking at Mors who stands on the right side of the arena.

"We meet again Sir Ming"

"Yes, we do lady Wu, now I once again wish you luck"

"Confident?"

"More than enough"

As Mors said he moves his left hand, as a long black color sword appears on his left hand. The black sword is crafted with legendary skills, its evil-looking aura shocking countless people. How can a rogue cultivator have such a high-quality sword!?

Zhihui smiles softly, seeing that sword on his hand all but confirm to her that Mors has the legacy of war. Things have taken an unexpected turn. She knew that soon enough that her actions will change the future from the one she knew.

But she did expect things to change so fast. She took a battle position, unlike Mors who seem to be a martial user. She is a mythical user, she does not need a weapon. The environment is her weapon.

The announcer regaining his composure started to speak, pure excitement pumping through his veins.

"On the left side, we have Wu Zhihui! A once cripple and talentless cultivator has regained her talents! With new powers, a miracle from the celestial dragon! She stands undefeated! No one stopping her path of conquest!"

"On the right side, we have Xiong Ming! A rogue cultivator that breaks the fate of this very world! Ending his battles in one move! The unstoppable force! On a path of war!"

"I declared under the watchful eyes of the heavens! That we will all witness a battle of pure legends! Let's get ready to!!!!!!! Rumble!!!!!!"

With the ending words of the announcer, the battle that everyone wanted finally started. War vs Wisdom
