Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch. 380 - Arrive at the Battle Dragon Arena
Inside a certain palace, Wang Biao's body flickered in the air and could not be seen clearly, resembling a bird flying agilely through the air.
A while later, Wang Biao landed soundlessly on the ground.
“Congratulations to Young Master for successfully mastering our Clan's high-level techniques.” Said an outer disciple who came from the Wang Family stepping forward with a flattering smile, "In the outer disciple tournament tomorrow, the first place will definitely belong to Young Master!"
Wang Biao nodded in satisfaction, confidence surging from his body. His two fists clenched tightly as a sharp glint flickered in his eyes, “Zhang En, just wait! Three years ago, I would pay him back a hundred times. Tomorrow, in the fighting arena, I want you to kneel before me and in front of everyone.!”.
Sensing the terrifying aura coming from Wang Biao's body, the disciple felt terrified, taking a step back involuntarily.
"What about the task I told you to find out?" Wang Biao asked as he retracted the aura coming out of his body, questioning the disciple.
The disciple approached respectfully and reported, “In these three years, Zhang En has been training in closed-door training inside the palace of the Sect Master's residence, until now, he had not yet stepped out a single step from where he lived. Therefore, this subordinate was unable to know the extent of his strength, yet, according to the judgment of this subordinate, regardless of how everyone praised his heaven-defying talent and how hard he cultivated, he was, his cultivation level was definitely still at the realm of the Semi Emperor God Peak Stage.”
Hearing the answers and reports of the disciples from his clan, Wang Biao nodded in agreement.
“According to this subordinate's opinion, the Young Master who will fight and defeat Zhang En tomorrow will truly be an easy opponent. This time, the real opponent of the Young Master was Du Leng. From what this subordinate was looking for, that Du Leng had broken through to the Second Star God Emperor realm, moreover, his Divine Barrier Technique had already reached the stage of mastery, clearly he was a formidable foe in the competition this time around. ” The student added.
Wang Biao then said, "That Du Leng actually managed to master the technique at the mastery stage, so why, then,? I have the confidence to beat him."
At this moment, the other outer disciples were also busy honing and training their abilities to compete for the top ten, top three, or even first place.
Many outer disciples who had been cultivating for over a hundred years were participating in the previous tournament appraisal, vying for the same chance to be promoted to inner disciple, and this strength of theirs even rivaled that of some inner disciple genius disciples.
...
Next day.
Even though today was a tournament that only all the outer disciples of the sect would follow, due to Zhang En's status, as well as Du Leng, Wang Biao, and the other top disciples, had, the competition in the tournament between the outer disciples this time attracted the attention of many inner disciples and elites. Even the Elders and Great Elders of the Spirit Fire Sect were also unwilling to miss watching the tournament between outer disciples being held today.
Inside his room, Zhang En, who was meditating, opened his eyes. Seeing the sunlight coming through the window, he stood up and walked out of his residence.
As Zhang En passed through the main hall, he saw his Master Lin Ming was sitting in the main hall.
Zhang En was shocked. Guessing that his Master must be waiting for him, he then approached respectfully, "Teacher..!"
Lin Ming nodded lightly with a smile on his face, as he looked at Zhang En, “I have heard about the situation of increasing Du Leng and Wang Biao's strength, respectively, if you were to meet these two people in a fight between the outer disciples today, you wouldn't have to force yourself against them, it's good enough if you could rank third. ”
Zhang En smiled wryly in his heart. He had not expected his Master to wait for him here just to say this. It seemed, even his own Master was not so sure of his strength.
Is this the highest wish his Master had for him in the battle tournament between outer disciples on this day?
"Good Teacher." Zhang En replied.
Zhang En replied firmly again, saluted, and left his Master's residence palace, heading towards the location of the tournament.
Fighting between outer disciples was not done in the Martial Arts Hall but in an area called the Battle Dragon Arena. The Battle Dragon Arena was not too far from the Martial Arts Hall, it was built on a mountain peak several hundred meters from the Martial Arts Hall.
It didn't take much time for Zhang En to reach the peak where the Battle Dragon Arena was located.
The mountain peak was leveled by the workers and building experts of the sect and the Battle Dragon Arena was built on the surface of the mountain which was already the surface of the peak already dated.
The large arena stage was made from a very hard stone core, elevated half a meter from the ground, and outside the arena, it could accommodate several tens of thousands of people to several hundred thousand people.
"View... It was Sect Master's disciple, Zhang En..!"
Zhang En's arrival immediately made a scene for the spectators who had been there since before to take place. The outer disciples who had arrived earlier all turned to look at Zhang En.
Ignoring the gazes of these people, Zhang En descended beside the Battle Dragon Arena.
"I wonder how strong Zhang En's strength will be after three years."
“I'll bet his strength is at the top of the most high-ranking Semi-Emperor of Gods. There was no way he could break through to the realm of the God Emperor in just a few short years.”
"Then, I'm worried that he can only rank three."
“Rank three? It was already considered not bad if he could enter the fifth rank. ”
A similar mocking voice filled the arena.
The small wrinkle furrowed Zhang En's brows as their words became coarse and increasingly brazen, but he quickly calmed down and ignored all of them.
"Now, Wang Biao has finally come...!"
Then, a loud shout came from the sea of the crowd of disciples.
“Rumor says that Wang Biao has broken through the realm of the Two-star God Emperor intermediate stage.!”.
Under the gazes of many people, several figures flew towards the arena at high speed. In front of the group was none other than Wang Biao. Compared to three years ago, the domineering aura of Wang Biao's body had increased, and the same ancient sword was hanging on his waist.
Wang Biao descended gently below the surface of the ground, his eyes scanned the crowd and very quickly found Zhang En who was standing beside the arena stage. His eyes dropped as he approached Zhang En.
"Zhang En, on the stage of the Battle Dragon Arena, I will not show mercy to you!" Stopping right in front of Zhang En, Wang Biao declared something in a ferocious voice. “Three years ago, what did you do to me for humiliating me, I will return it a hundred times to you today! I will trample you under my feet.!”
Zhang En's expression indifferently heard his words and replied, “Ohhh, really? I'll look forward to it..!”
