John stared at Russell who had just appeared before him and asked for a fight. A powerful aura was emanating from Russell, indicating that he was serious in his request.
John looked at Russell for a moment before he looked away and returned to his cultivation.
"Sure, but after the trials are over," John responded.
A smile appeared on Russell's face as he heard John's response. "You better not back out when the time comes."
Adam stared at John and Russell in surprise, especially John. John was just at the mid Qi Condensation Realm, while Russell was at the peak of the realm.
"Why the hell would you accept such a fight? Your cultivation is way lower than his!" Adam asked in a panicked tone.
"It's just a fight. The worst thing that happens is I get beaten up," John replied in an unconcerned tone. Adam was shocked to hear such a response, as he himself avoided all confrontation unless he was assured victory.
