‹Zao Gu's POV›
"Who will you both send out next?" The question bellowed across the arena and all people in the podium.
For the first time in which feels like a century they didn't speak in sync. " I would like to send out my disciple Fang Lionya he is my 9th level beginner cultivation disciple he will be using the sword and the shield." Wong Tzu said with a slightly twisted smile but not in a bad way
"Why did you say I would like to of course you can." I answered.
"I would like to send out my disciple Gen Zhengkan she is my 9th level beginner cultivation disciple she will using the sword and the shield."
"Well send them up." I said sounding irritated but from my facial expression they could see I had realised that they said the exact same line except for that one of the disciples is make and the other female and the name was ofcourse different.
As they went into the stage you could feel a cold aura walking up I could even see one of the disciples struggling to breath.
this shouldn't happen with mere 9th level beginner cultivation disciples. as I thought this I was wondering what was causing the aura but then I realized that only one of them was releasing an aura the other was as scared as he could ever be.
As the fight began you could see that Gen Zhengkan was holding back tremendously as if he wasn't even trying even when the blink of Odin was being used his facial expression stayed the same and he dodged everything with ease no attacks came within a 30 centimeter radius of him. Then he went in for an attack and one shot his opponent but as his opponent was beat you could see the amount of effort he put into the strike as the blood of Fang Lionya fell into the ground in the shape of a crescent moon with a man sitting on it who was fishing.
I stood up and clapped I smiled and said. "Gen Zhengkan you said your name was right."
"Yes sect leader."
"Why did you join my sect if you are at the level of 2nd beginner cultivation warrior. there are many sects who would accept you."
"damn I thought I had hid my cultivation quite well and nobody would be able to find out but I guess I was wrong. I decided on this sect as life was boring and I thought why not take over a sect. hahahahah."
"Interesting train of thoughts but if you wanted to do that you should have gone to a different sect as you don't stand a chance against me I said as I released my aura showing that I had recently level up to 7th level advanced cultivation disciple and the first level of the second layer of one with the sword.
Although this quite surprised him he didn't seem threatened by this aura.
"I would like to take you in as a core disciple of 'MY SECT' when I become the sect leader." he said full of conviction.
"Well then I might as well say let's fight." I said with a totally serious face showing that I would show no remorse.
"Well okay if you say so." he said as he jumped onto the arena.
"Did you know they call me Yishú." He said with a smile on his face as if he had just robbed someone and succeeded. (Yishú means art in simplefied Chinese.)
"You know damn well that name doesn't belong to you it belongs to the forgotten artist Yishú radion."
"That old meatbag he is just a pile of bones." He snickered with a sort of sadistic tone in his voice.
with my one eye filled with rage and the other showing a bright star.
I grabbed a sword and called out Futsunushi sword slash of unparalleled strength. (Futsunushi, god of swords, martial arts, and conquest in Japanese mythology)
The ethereal voice repeated what I said and in my eyes the fight was already over but for gen Zhengkan who didn't expect anything from a sword moving at only the speed of sound. but then it made contact with his skin and it started folding around the blade as the blade cut deeper until the body was cut in half but I the used a type of magic I had the arena fortified with so if somebody would die in the arena their soul would be trapped until a recovered body was delivered back and the soul could go into that body again.
The blood on the ground showed a drawing of a man slicing some fruit on his last day of life which was depicted with a foggy background as you could see death approaching.
"You weren't disappointing you were a great fight thank you for showing me how powerful this slash is you will form here on still be known as a sect disciple of the fire god sect.
