Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================¶¶================

"Next the battle for the top ten rankings shall begin. Let the top ten participants step forward!"

Arthur and the nine other disciples walked forward.

"Everyone will fight a total of nine matches and the ranking will be decided on the number of wins a disciple has."

"The one with a full winning streak will be declared the strongest outer court disciple!" The elder announced.

Aside from the main stage, there were many other smaller stages used for battle.

This was how the sect was able to hold the entire ranking battles in a day. It was already close to evening, so the elder announced that all battles will be fought simultaneously.

After that, he called out the names of everyone and their opponents, while assigning them to their battle arena.

Whether on purpose or not, Mark was assigned to the biggest arena with his opponent.

"Mark Vs Gakner, stage one!"

"Invincible Vs Aselia, stage two!"

"Julie Vs Tomin, stage three!"

"Devon Vs Yanglin, stage four!"

"Ethan Vs Wester, stage five!"

Everyone ascended their assigned stage and stood opposite their opponents.

"Begin!"

"I admit defeat!" A voice shouted immediately they were told to begin the battle.

Everyone turned to the stage where the voice spoke from and found out that it was Gakner who admitted defeat.

"Why did he admit defeat so fast, is he scared?"

"I don't know, but with that ability of his, maybe he might have been able to cause Mark some trouble."

"Who knows, he could be trying to preserve his strength to face the others."

"Hmm, that could be the case."

The elder looked at them and announced Mark's win.

Mark nodded to Gakner which confused him, not knowing that Mark was grateful that Gakner did not waste his time.

'Good, if only everyone will be like this. Then I can meet my little sister faster,' Mark thought to himself and jumped off the stage.

After that little episode, the battle on the other stages erupted in an instant as no one was willing to admit defeat just like that even if their opponent was stronger.

Everyone had been training hard since the last ranking battles and it was time to show the fruits of their training.

Arthur looked at his opponent and smiled, "Hey, beautiful-!"

"Roaring Hurricane!"

Arthur dodged the literally roaring wind that got sent his way.

"Haven't you learned that talking while engaged in battle is dangerous?" Aselia smirked as she summoned her martial spirit.contemporary romance

*Swoosh!*

'Tier 4 Profound Grade Martial Spirit? Not too bad,' Arthur noted as he saw her martial spirit which was a wind-elemental martial spirit.

"Well, haven't you heard of the term 'Femme Fatal'? You are beautifully dangerous, and I am willing to take the risk," Arthur replied with a smirk of his own.

Although his current disguised look can not compare to his original, he was still fairly handsome as he kept some similarities with his original face.

Aselia had not been complimented like that before, so she was a bit moved but then she shook her head and focused on the battle.

"Wind Ride!"

The wind hugged Aselia's body and she accelerated to Arthur's position.

Arthur was a bit surprised that she has learned this technique as he knew from her information that she has never used this technique before.

Arthur used the same movement technique too as he dodged the incoming attack.

"Roaring Hurricane: Fifth Style!"

Aselia sent both palms forward and two dangerously rotating wind attacks were sent at Arthur which he dodged skillfully.

Aselia narrowed her eyes as she noticed that Arthur was very skilled in the Wind Ride movement technique.

'He might be more skilled in it than I am. But how could that be possible? I have been training in this technique for more than a year and only choose to reveal it now.'

Aselia was surprised at that and lamented about her talent which was already very good since she was able to learn a hard technique like Wind Ride.

"Your mastery could use some work. I can give you pointers later if you want," Arthur winked at her.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Yeah, stop flirting with our goddess!"

Many disciples began to complain upon hearing Arthur's words.

"Beat his horny ass, my goddess!"

"That's right, he deserves a beating!"

Arthur ignored the voices of the jealous disciples.

Aselia snorted at Arthur's offer even though she did consider it for a second there.

"Hmph! You would have to defeat me first if you want to give me pointers!"

"I'll take that as a yes then."

Aselia continued to attack relentlessly and this time with greater speed and more destructive power.

*Bang!*

But every time she came close to landing a hit on Arthur he would dodge it at the last second.

'Tch! He is just playing with me!' Aselia finally realized that she could not defeat Arthur like this.

So she started contemplating what to do while still attacking.

'Let's try this...'

"Wind Style: Twisting Tornadoes!"

*Vroom!*

Two tall tornadoes appeared before her and suddenly fused together in an instant.

One was rotated clockwise and the other in the opposite direction.

This combination disrupted the airflow on the stage and would, in turn, restrict the effectiveness of Arthur's wind ride technique.

'This should do the trick...'

Aselia was using one of her most powerful attacks right off the bat, which was not too wise since she still had to fight In eight more matches, but she wasn't one to accept defeat easily.

The tornadoes began to expand and soon covered the entire stage.

Arthur's body was swayed by the wind a bit, but he prevented himself from being thrown off balance.

'What level of technique is this?'

This was the first time Arthur saw such a technique being used by Gold Core Realm Cultivator.

The tornado was trying to lift him from the stage but he used his strength intent to enhance his power and kept his feet steady.

'Although this has disrupted the wind elements in the atmosphere which would reduce the effectiveness of my movement technique.'

'But she has no idea how high my mastery of wind intent is...'

Arthur concentrated his tenth-ranked wind intent and he was able to sense the wind elements that filled the stage.

And with his intent, he made connections with them and drew them to his side.

And to his pretty opponent's shock, he muttered the words.

"Wind Ride..."
