Chapter 91 Ayden's time

Rook who had been standing there calmly after he left the stage wasn't able to maintain his serene mind when he saw Selena's attack, he actually felt a sense of helplessness for the first time against someone of his age.

Rook didn't have to challenge Selena to know that he isn't her match, he had lost in all aspects including speed which he values the most, Selena's feather blades were just way too quick and unpredictable.

Honestly speaking, what can you do against an attack you can't even see though?

Rook stepped out from the Guards as he asked Selena "I'm sorry to disturb you miss, but may I know how you managed to cultivate the calamity law to such a profound stage which branches from the mainstream?"

Nightin who was beside Selena retreated backwards as he allowed the two youths to have their own conversation, even though his relationship with Max might not be on good terms, it wouldn't hurt for the younger generation to communicate with each other.

Selena didn't expect herself to answer him before her mind could react as she said while combing her violet hair backwards "I don't really know either, I guess it just has to do with the experiences I've been through since young."

Rook nodded as he took off his mask, golden hair flowed out from his helmet as he placed his clenched right first on his heart and bowed while introducing himself "I'm Rook from the guards, may I have the privilege of knowing your name?"

Selena was about to reply Rook, but a gust of wind suddenly swept her away as she landed back with the Nirvana sect, it was Max from the Guards who had done it.

Selena wanted to question Max for the sudden action, but Nightin stopped her by interjecting "Max, what's the meaning of you doing that? Is there a problem with the disciples under us wanting to make friends with each other?"

Max took out a insignia and showed it to Rook as he asked "Rook, I'm pretty sure that you recognise this crest?"

Rook got down on his knees to everyone's surprise as he said in a solemn voice "Half Paladin Rook pays respect to the Holy Paladin! May I have the honour of fulfilling the order given?"

"What did he just say? The Holy Paladin who controls the Paladins?"

"Just who is Rook affiliated with, the Guards are only a branch of the Paladins and yet they already possess the qualifications to claim the throne in the lower realm, just how strong would the Holy Paladin be?"

"I'm afraid that things aren't as simple as they seem right now."

Max didn't let anyone besides Rook know about the given message, but everyone could tell that it wasn't a pleasant message from the look on Rook's face who had retreated back.

Before Rook left, he whispered into Selena's ears "Give me ten years and if I'm unable to love you again that day, you should just forget about this pathetic admirer of yours."

Selena pouted her cheeks as she asked Nightin politely, but in the tone and behavior of a childish girl "Sect master, why didn't you stop him from blowing me away?"

Nightin could only roll his eyeball as he turned his gaze towards one of his disciples, expecting help but to no avail.

Ayden couldn't stand this anymore as he asked "Sect master, just who is she? Did you abduct her from somewhere or is she your daughter?"

Shit, I've messed up. The moment the words left Ayden's mouth, he could feel a slight killing intent surrounding him from all four sides as he subconsciously used his Oceanic Fall law to envelop himself in a thin blue armor formed of water.

"System, I would like the detailed information on Ayden."

Cultivation base: middle stage Martial Lord realm (foundation isn't stable yet from the recent breakthrough)

Law: True Mystic water, water at this level has already exceeded the boundaries of the five elements and is comparable to a Half Divine law.

Body Constitution: Inheritor of the Moonlight Wolf, the only survivor of his race with his memories sealed up due to unknown reasons.

Nightin was shocked when he learnt about Ayden's true identity, he started to think if he should let Ayden know about it, but continued by telling Ayden in a steady voice "Mind your words, she's your junior and one my disciples, that's all there is."

Ayden's body shuddered for a moment as he said "I'm sorry."

*On the stage*

When Ayden stepped onto the stage, he started to surround his body with the True Mystic water law.

When everyone looked at him, they felt like they were looking at a ferocious wolf waiting to pounce on its prey, one wrong move and they would also be his meal as well.

"What the hell do you think you're doing for realising killing intent towards us!"

"So what if you're one of the Nirvana sect's disciples, you're just tarnishing your sect's reputation!"

Ayden smirked as he ignored the criticism, he only closed his eyes as he brought his killing intent out to the fullest, he didn't just spend the whole year training under the waterfall, every time he stepped deeper in, it would always be a tough battle waiting for him.

His body had already been stained with blood, its innocent virgin was long gone and what replaced it was newfound maturity, the killing intent gathered felt akin to a part of his body.

No one knew his experiences back in the waterfall cave, but he had to challenge demon beasts one stronger than the other each time he travels into a newfound area. Some of them were in groups while some were alone, his body was already accustomed to most types of combats and killing was as simple as blinking for him.

The spiritual form of a wolf started to form behind him, its eyes flashed with the intent to slaughter everyone present as it gathered its strength and concentrated them and it bent down.

Ayden himself didn't know why, but he just knew that the wolf was the most suitable spiritual animal for him. He wanted to consult his sect master on this, but still retracted this idea after thinking to himself, I shouldn't burden sect master any further.

Swoosh

The attack wasn't amazingly fast, but they could only see phantoms of the wolf when it's actually changing the direction and angle with every step taken, the movement was too unorthodox to be predicted.

The same thought flashed past everyone's mind as another eye catching score appeared on the damage tabulation altar.

9999

Ayden didn't just go for full combat strength, he had controlled his strength precisely to land the exact mark for full points, the scores of the other contestants were a far cry from his, their combat strength and aura couldn't even be compared.

As Ayden leaped off the stage, he seek Nightin's permission before heading off, Nightin didn't pursue him on this matter, neither did he throw any questions towards him, he respected each and every single one of his disciples.

If they wanted to kill and the older generation attacks them, he'll take action and shield them, if they wanted to lay low or show off their strength, then he'll ensure that they get the platform to. His disciples were just like his sons and daughters, he only wants them to be safe.

But still, what's with this bad omen that I'm having?
