Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

===============¶¶================

"Eah!"

The cry of a bird was heard and a speeding red figure approached the mansion.

The Vice Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect Argath Glaber squint his eyes and caught sight of who was approaching.

With his superior eyesight that allowed him to see beyond a thousand meters he saw an old man, and two middle-aged men, accompanied by seven youngsters.

They stood atop a dark-red-colored giant bird.

Soon the group reached the mansion and landed softly on the ground.

*Thud!*

Behind the Vice Sect Leader were two old men who were Great Elders of the sect.

"The Fire Spirit Sect is here," said one of the Great Elders.

After the group which was referred to as the Fire Spirit Sect heard what was said, they jumped down from the spirit beast and walked forward.

"Vice Sect Leader, Argath. It has been a long time!" The old man leading the group was the first to speak with a smile on his face.

"Vice Sect Leader, Reinar. It sure has, and I can see you have progressed in your cultivation again, congratulations," Argath replied with the same smile.

"Hahaha! Thank you, but it is just a small breakthrough. Nothing to fuss about, as after all I still can't compare to you."

"Alright, let's leave the pleasantries and discuss what we are here for. But we still have one more quest coming."

"Oh, they are coming today? I thought they will come the day before we have to leave?"

"They contacted me that they had a change of plans and will come earlier..."

Suddenly, the two men heard a sound from afar and turned their heads in the direction it came from.

"It seems they have already arrived...The Alchemy Association."

Back at the arena, the situation became tense as the disciples watching held breaths.

They knew that...

"It's about to go down!"

On the side, Shena dodged the arrows shot at her with her enhanced speed and agility, while she used her spear to block and redirect a few.

"So what? You got stronger, but you still can't beat me, Amelia!"

Amelia grits her teeth and used a martial art technique to enhance her attacks.

"Spining Arrows!"

"Multi-Spinning Arrows!"contemporary romance

A shower of arrows blotted the sky and surrounded Shena, wiping off the smirk on her face as she became serious.

'So you are not as weak as before...but you are not the only one who got stronger.'

Shena stood still and hit the butt of her spear on the floor. Then she began to rotate the spear with so much speed that created many after images.

"Wind Evasion!"

Her wings stirred up and she speed up instantly as her spinning spear redirected the arrows.

*slice!*

Even then a few managed to injure her but she held on and kept on getting closer to Amelia while running around her.

'She is still inexperienced in the way of battle and isn't even trying to prevent me from closing the distance.'

'Moreover, that technique she is using is burning her essence energy reserves fast. I can tell from the changes in her expression.'

Soon the shower of arrows came to a halt and Amelia was panting heavily.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battle arena...

Akin had summoned his martial spirit the Yellow Earthen Shield, which was a defensive-type martial spirit.

A transparent yellow spherical barrier covered him in a two-meter radius.

Akin had concluded that he can not take on Arthur in a head-on fight. So he decided to go on the defensive while stalling for time so that Shena can come to join him.

'Only then would we be able to win!'

"Hey, you. You are new right?" A spectating disciple asked someone beside him.

"Um, yes I am one of the new disciples."

"Good, then that means you don't know what ability Akin is using, I assume?"

"No, I do not. Is it very powerful?"

"Well, I wouldn't say it's very powerful, but it is powerful enough."

"How powerful is it then?"

"It can withstand the full punch of an average peak Gold Core Realm cultivator!"

"Wow, so strong? Then how come he is only ranked 22nd?"

"Oh, that. You are still not very knowledgeable about the power scaling of cultivators. If a peak Gold Core Realm practitioner uses an attack-type martial arts technique, and if the said practitioner has a battle power of at least one star, then he can break the shield."

"Although it will be impossible to break it in one hit with that level of power. But it is enough to cause cracks to appear. And when cracks appear, Akin's essence energy will be used to repair the cracks in an instant."

"But in the end, it will depend on if the attacker can use a set of combo attacks that will break the shield faster than it can repair all the damage," The older disciple explained with a smile as though he was proud of being so knowledgeable.

"So that's how it is. Then unless Invincible has reached such a level of power, he won't be able to break the shield in a short among of time."

"That's right."

They went quiet as they saw that Arthur had begun to approach Akin with slow steps.

'They think I am weak...that they can bully me on a whim...and they even have some elders on their side.'

Arthur was annoyed by this.

'Hehehe...Blood Sword Faction right?... You have no idea...'

He finds it funny how people of this world can underestimate and look down on those that they feel are weaker than them, without knowing much about the person that they look down on.

'Let me show you...what it means to be invincible!'

Arthur had a plan in mind.

'I will win this competition with a very grand style!'

"So you think that is enough?"

Arthur spoke suddenly as he arrived a few steps away from Akin's barrier.

Akin poured more essence energy into the shield and retorted, "You can't break this shield in time."

"You think so?"

"No need to taunt me."

"I am not taunting you. I'll tell what..."

"I will break your so-called shield in one move and defeat you with that same move."

"What?"
