Nobilis of War

Silence reigned in the training ground.

Bella stood as still as a rock with her pouty lips still attached to Darren's palm. Her face flushed red, and she nearly died of embarrassment.

She took a few steps back as her eyes filled with tears. Bella was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a place to hide.

Bella had always been surrounded by numerous talented youth who adored her. Now, a mediocre cultivator was teasing her. She felt wronged. "Why are you bullying me like this?"

Bella cried as shame coursed through her. Pained by Darren's actions, real tears flowed down her pretty face.

"Bullying you? You asked for it.

I don't care about you, but you keep trying to get me into trouble. By asking me to be your boyfriend, you were provoking your admirers to attack me. Now, I think you have got what you wanted from me. Look at those vicious eyes. Can you feel that everyone in the training ground intends to kill me right now? Are you satisfied? Why are you saying that I bullied you?"

Bella was rendered speechless as no one had spoken to her like this before.

"Do you think that every man in the world should surround you and admire you because you are a beauty? Do you think you are that charming? Your admirers are a bunch of losers who are attracted to your physical appearance. And you are not that pretty at all. You are a cheap and shallow little girl in my eyes.

Please don't think that I am deliberately trying to hurt you. Everything I have said is the truth. I really mean it. Do you understand?"

Bella didn't move a muscle. Instead, she stared blankly at the floor. She had not been treated like this since she was a child. She was so mortified that she wanted to kill Darren. However, when she thought about her failed attack on Darren, she just stood there and didn't know what to do.

"Boo-hoo-hoo."

Bella cried her heart out in front of Darren since she didn't know how to vent her anger.

The more Darren spoke ill of Bella, the more she cried. The more tears that flowed down her pretty face, the angrier her admirers became.

"You bastard, don't be so arrogant! I will kill you!"

"You called us losers? You bastard! Go to hell!"

"How dare you make Bella cry? I will never let you go!"

The crowd was furious with Darren and began to snarl at him. Chaos ruled the training ground.

Everyone who had come to watch the competition in this training ground today were all rule cultivators. Even the lowest-ranked cultivator was at the ninth stage of the Mysterious Realm. At least two dozen people had reached the primary stage of the Wonder Realm. They would never allow a mediocre cultivator like Darren, who had just reached the Mysterious Realm, to be so arrogant!

Boom!

In the next instant, a deafening sound filled the training ground as a dozen fist shadows flew towards Darren.

Darren stayed put and didn't bother to dodge the attacks. Soon, the intense fist shadows hit his body. To everyone's surprise, they all disappeared after the impact. None of their attacks inflicted a damage to Darren.

"What!"

"How could that happen?"

The audience let out an ear-piercing shriek in the training ground. They gaped at Darren with their eyes widened. The three talented youths also gasped in amazement. As they were standing on the battlefield, they could clearly observe the current situation. Deep furrows appeared between their brows as they became lost in their thoughts. They wondered whether they could be as composed as Darren when attacked by such powerful fists. The answer was no. Even if they had been at the top level of the primary stage of the Wonder Realm, it would be impossible for them to defend against the fierce attack of a dozen masters with such intense power.

Darren cast a cold glance at them. Everyone in the audience took a few steps back. Their eyes filled with sheer terror as they stared at him in astonishment.

They felt so ridiculous. Even a master at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm, who had used his Omnipotent Talent Skill to attack Darren, could not hurt him. So their shadow fists were just like a light breeze that blew through Darren's body.

"I am afraid that guy has some secret weapon with which he protects himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such a powerful body," a cultivator shouted.

A few youths, who were at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm, didn't believe that Darren had such a powerful body. They would rather believe that he had secret weapon to protect his body from getting hurt. After all, Darren was just a mediocre guy who had only entered the Mysterious Realm. They were not afraid of him.

"Miss Mu, let me teach him a lesson!"

A youth suddenly stepped out of the crowd. He emitted an intense aura from his body as he spoke. He was about twenty-three years old and a beginner at the Wonder Realm. He could be regarded as a talent since he had reached the Wonder Realm at such a young age.

"Stop!" Bella called out to him. She wiped the tears from her swollen eyes before she turned to Darren and said, "Get lost! I don't want to see you again."

"Miss Mu, you can't just let the bastard go. We will avenge you."

"That's right! It seems that he is not a disciple of the Dragon Holy Land. We will never let him walk out of here!"

Most of the cultivators in the crowd were on their feet, shouting.

"Humph. If anyone dares to touch him, I will regard him or her as my enemy," Bella said coldly.

Hearing what she said, several people were confused and asked for an explanation.

"You ask me why? Because all he can do is criticize everything. Even arguing with him is beneath me."

"Uh. Who do you think you are? Why do you have such a condescending attitude?" Darren calmly replied.

"You bastard! Are you out of your mind? Miss Mu's grandfather is the first elder of the Dragon Holy Land. How dare you say something like that? You are not even good enough to carry her shoes as a servant!' someone in the training ground shouted.

"Ha-ha. The first elder in the Dragon Holy Land? That is great. But can he compare with Scott?" Darren snorted.

They wanted to shame him with her noble status? Since Darren was close to Scott, an elder was insignificant to him.

What was more, Scott came from the Dragon Blood Clan. Even though her grandfather was the first elder, he was just a minor soldier when compared to Scott.

"Mind your manners, youth! It is disrespectful of you to call our Holy Lord's name. Go to hell, you scum!"

People in the Dragon Sect regarded Scott as God. No one dared to disrespect the Holy Lord, even if he or she had extremely powerful family background.

Bella's expression turned stern. Then she said, "It is fine that you want to insult me. But how dare you disrespect our Holy Lord? Now, you are asking for trouble, and you only have yourself to blame. I don't want to get involved in some lengthy argument with you anymore. If you guys want to teach him a lesson, go ahead."

What she meant was clear. She wanted them to attack Darren for being so arrogant.

"That's ok." Darren shook his head and continued, "You and I will never meet again. So, I forgive you this time. I should go now. See you."

Darren had planned on wandering around after being transported to the Dragon Holy Land. He didn't want to waste his time arguing with them anymore.

"Ha-ha. You think you can just run away like that?" A youth on the battlefield flew towards Darren and stood in front of him. With an expression of complete disdain, he said, "If you can sustain one blow from me, I will let you go. If you can't, you will apologize to Bella. That sounds fair, right?"

"Fred, are you showing off in front of Bella? Let go of such sum? Are you a real man or not? You are such a sissy." Another muscular man, who had stood on the battlefield shouted as he flew towards them. "Little boy. I am Cameron Wang. I am very good at teaching naughty children how to behave. You want to try it? How about you kneel on the floor and bow to me a hundred times? You deserve this punishment Do you understand?" The last youth also flew towards them.

Everyone in the training ground was filled with excitement as they were expecting a good show. They were certain that even if Darren were able to survive the battle, he would be severely injured by the three talents since they were deeply offended by his remarks.

Under attack by three masters, who were at the top level of the primary stage of the Wonder Realm, Darren would suffer tremendously even if he had some legendary secret weapon to protect himself with. "Don't go too far. You just need to teach him a lesson," Bella told them. She meant that they could do whatever they like with Darren as long as they didn't kill him.

"Since you say so, we will obey your order," a youth replied with an evil smile. He casually raised his hands in the air before swinging his fist toward Darren gently.

Although his movement seemed gentle on the surface, it contained great power. His fist power was so intense that even the air swirled. The tremendous pressure emitted from his fist made it hard for all the disciples at the Mysterious Realm to breathe.

They were amazed to see how powerful the master was, and thought that it was virtually impossible for Darren to sustain such strong power for one second.

"Humph. You asked for it. Don't blame me!" Bella snorted coldly. Her expression softened at the thought that someone was avenging her. She turned and walked towards the training ground's exit. 000
