Heero heard very clearly to Dong Woo's proclamation, this man was a Crown Class Ranker - Rank 27, Arun Seth.
He held his chin as he tried to remember the rank for the ranker. Ranker had more ranks than Hero.
"Crown Class Ranker - Rank 27…" Heero muttered in a low voice.
"The impact will not be as big as defeating a Legend Class Ranker, but it might work to bait the Legend Class Ranker come out…" Heero concluded as he stood up.
He put Kang Myung Hee down and whispered in a soft voice to her ears, "Go inside with Teacher Hong~ Teacher Xing will take care of these people first~"
Kang Myung Hee nodded her head and obediently followed Heero's instruction. She entered the shop.
As the rankers were driving the people away, the district was isolated, leaving only a few people.
"Sir Arun, that Hero and that hunter who beat us!" an unranked Gold Class Ranker that Heero let away pointed his finger toward Sun Zhou Yi and Butcher Wang.
A man called Arun Seth turned his cold eyes at Sun Zhou Yi. He ignored Butcher Wang but looked at Sun Zhou Yi with his cold gaze, the man who defeated Gold Class Ranker - Rank 79, Karam Ganesh.
Arun Seth, a man with a towering figure, his height reached 210 cms with a robust build and had a thick face. Wearing a black Ranker Alliance's uniform with a crown symbol on his right chest and a big spear which was longer than his body on his back. His presence alone was enough to intimidate his opponent.
Even a Gold Class Hero - Rank 20, Feng Bian was quite nervous facing such a figure. Aren Seth was the famous Flame Wizard. Just like the name, he was a Ranker with flame ability. Feng Bian turned his head gaze toward Heero and Sun Zhou Yi.
He found Sun Zhou Yi and Heero were still calm even in the presence of Flame Wizard, Aren Seth. It was quite something to him.
...
Arun Seth heard an unranked Wood Class Hero defeated a Gold Class Ranker with a rank. He focused on that person, Sun Zhou Yi.
He ignored Heero's presence as he walked two steps forward and made a shocking declaration, "Sun Zhou Yi! Join Ranker Alliance, your life and your family will be spared for your offenses!"
After saying those words, he glanced toward Heero. He recognized Heero who killed the Bronze Class Ranker - Rank 3, Oh Chunyong.
"As for him, death is his fate. Since he dared to kill a ranker, he has to prepare to be killed as well!" Aren Seth determined Heero's fate as if the situation was under his control.
"What if I refuse to join Ranker Alliance?" Sun Zhou Yi retorted, he was not getting intimidated in the slightest as he stepped forward, standing right on Heero's side. It was clear, he would stay on Heero's side regardless of the threats he had to face.
Sun Zhou Yi, he was an orphan, being raised in an orphanage since five years old. He had fuzzy memories of his parents and family. He only had his girlfriend, Xiao Xi who also raised in the same orphanage as him.
However, now, he had a master who cared for him and he already regarded the people who lived in this district as his family. He would not stand on the Ranker Alliance's side. Even though his Master did not need him to take on his side, but he still made it clear to the Ranker Alliance.
The same for Butcher Wang he also stood on the other side of Heero. Since he already determined to fight the unranked Gold Class Ranker, he had prepared for this.
"Then death is your future. How foolish! Do you think you can contend against Ranker Alliance with your meager power? I will show you how strong Crown Class Ranker is!"
With that said, the rankers around Arun Seth retread, keeping a safe distance from Arun Seth.
Then a flame pillar covered Arun Seth. The flame pillar revolved around Arun Seth just like a cyclone. The flame pillar reached twenty meters high.
Butcher Wang and Sun Zhou Yi stepped forward, they intended to fight against Arun Seth. However, He stretched his hand out and said, "You guys only need to watch, let me take care of this guy!"
Heero walked forward and said with a faked scared expression, "Oy! Oy! Oy! Don't play with fire, it's dangerous!"
Even though he said so, he still moved forward, getting closer and closer to the flame pillar. Heero only stopped when he was a meter away from the flame pillar, looking at the flame with his Mystical Eyes.
Heero was a bit surprised, he found this Crown Class Ranker could control the colorful energy that he turned into the flame. This was the first time he met someone who could control Ki. Albeit a bit clumsy, but it was already quite good. After all, there was no one taught Arun Seth how to control Ki.
Appreciation was an appreciation, he had to beat this person to bait a bigger fish to come. Without hesitation, Heero stepped into the flame pillar which was shocked everyone around there.
"Master!" Sun Zhou Yi called out in alarm. Even though he knew his Master was strong, but it still made him uneasy when he saw Heero entered the flame pillar.
Dong Woo, Feng Bian, Yun Qiu Fan, and Butcher Wang had their eyes went wide. Even Hong Yu who watched from inside the shop also dashed out of the shop in panic. However, none of them could stop Heero as Heero already entered the flame pillar.
The one who felt the most shocked was Arun Seth. He saw with his own eyes his flame pillar was split into two as the good looking young man entered his flame pillar.
It was as if the flame was afraid of this young man, the flame would go away each time the young man got closer to him. A thousand thoughts appeared in his mind. He was thinking of the ability this young man had.
However, this was the first he saw this kind of ability. Even amongst the Legend Class or Emperor Class, there was no such ability. In an instant, he realized this young man was not as simple as it seemed.
Not only Arun Seth noticed the change on the flame pillar. The people around also noticed the flame would go away when Heero got closer.
Sun Zhou Yi and Butcher Wang had an awe expression as they witnessed this. Feng Bian and Dong Woo had the same look, they were shocked to witness this scene.
Arun Seth froze on the spot as he saw Heero arrived right in front of him. Just as he wanted to pull the spear on his back, Heero's hand reached his chest without being noticed by him. Along with the hand touched his chest, the flame pillar vanished at the same time.
Arun Seth could not be shocked anymore than this, his eyes went round, it was as if his eyes might pop anytime soon which looked funny in Heero's eyes.
The flame was his awakened ability, but one touch from the young man, his ability vanished.
He immediately distanced himself from Heero, he saw the young man shook his head, somewhat in a shaky voice, he asked, "You… Who are you? What did you do to me?
It was simple, Heero was disrupting the flow of Arun Seth's Ki (colorful energy) inside Arun's body with his Ki which caused Arun Seth's flame pillars to disappear. Without Ki, of course, Arun Seth could not maintain his flame.
Heero shook his head as he realized Arun Seth could not control his Ki. If he could control the Ki, he would immediately realize that there was a foreign Ki disrupting his. However, Arun Seth did not realize that. Instead, it made him panic.
Based on Arun Seth's reaction, he concluded this Arun Seth could not use Ki properly as he thought.
Heero ignored Arun Seth and stretched his hand out.
"I haven't fought in a long time. I hope Crown Class Ranker won't disappoint me…" Before Heero could not finish his words, he heard a weird siren sounded.
Ooogah-ooogah! Ooogah-ooogah! Ooogah-ooogah!
Along with the siren, Heero saw the rankers' smartwatch also turned bright. After that, the lamp on each building that never turned on now flashed up in red.
The rankers' countenance included Arun Seth turned ugly. Heero was baffled as he did not understand what had happened. He turned around and saw everyone had the same look as the rankers.
Sun Zhou Yi, Butcher Wang, Hong Yu, and Dong Woo also panicked. Han Ying, Kang Myung Hee, and Lan Lan also came out from the shop in a panic state. Heero was really baffled, why did everyone panic?
Feng Bian immediately dragged Yun Qiu Fan with him, leaving the district in a hurry. He left the district without saying goodbye to them.
The same for the group of rankers. They immediately left in a hurry after the siren resounded.
Dong Woo picked Myung Hee up and immediately rushed toward Heero, "Teacher Xing, let's leave this place with us!"
Heero however held Dong Woo's hand, preventing him to go and asked, "What's wrong?"
Dong Woo did not explain anything but showed the smartwatch on his wrist. The smartwatch's screen turned into bright red and there were words written on it.
[ Emergency State! Please evacuate to the inner region! Danger Level: Level 10 Calamity! ]
[ Emergency State! Please evacuate to the inner region! Danger Level: Level 10 Calamity! ]
[ Emergency State! Please evacuate to the inner region! Danger Level: Level 10 Calamity! ]
Those words kept flashing on the smartwatch screen. However, Heero still did not understand those words. He could not grasp the whole situation.
Just as Heero finished reading those words, there was a shadow covered them. Subconsciously, everyone looked up and saw a giant creature hovering right on top of them.
"Dragon!!!!????" Dong Woo exclaimed in shock.
