Chapter 238: The first battle
Then the young elder began forming the groups, and fortunately or maybe unfortunately, Jayden and Gang were placed in different groups by a slight margin.
And soon, starting from group 1, the disciples were being called to different stages as their battle began, Jayden was in the 9th group so he would go fight after the previous groups finished.
Jayden didn’t pay much attention to them, and just began cultivation, channelling the energy slowly through his body, completely forgetting about his surroundings.
It was only when some one tapped on his arm that Jayden opened his eyes, looking around he saw Gang standing in front of him with his huge body, as he spoke:
” Sir, you should go on the stage, it’s your turn. ”
Jayden looked at him strangely then he walked towards the stage for group nine’s battle.
While walking he glanced over at his wives who cheered for him, Xiao and Jia also wished him good luck, and Jayden just nodded then stepped onto the stage.
One by one many disciples climbed onto the stage, most of them were in the 8th stage of Body refining and two were in the 1st stage of the Qi Gathering realm, just after seeing those two, the rest of the disciples had already given up on any hope of winning and decided to just admit defeat immediately.
‘ Huhu, those two brothers are famous for their brutality, let’s see how you act like that again. ‘
The young elder thought since he was the one who planned this all.
Jayden observed them all calmly, both the strong disciples were wearing blood red robes and had two red swords in their hands, they licked their swords with bloodthirsty expressions, as the remaining disciple moved away from them in fear.
” Everyone, the battle for group nine starts now. ”
The third elder announced and immediately many disciples raised their hands to admit defeat but they were filled with fear as the two blood brothers pounced on them.
” I- I admit defe- ughhhhhh “Just as a boy was about to speak, one of the brothers broke his arm, making him scream in agony.
Any disciple who tried to admit defeat then those two brothers rushed towards them and broke their limbs.
After a few seconds, only Jayden was left standing there, one of the brothers looked at Jayden in surprise and spoke:
” My, what a surprise, I thought you would be the first to run away kekekeke, but now that you are the only one here, let us toy with you. ”
” Kukukuku, little brother he looks too gentle, let me play with him first then you can conduct your experiments. ”
The second brother added, licking his sword.
Jia felt worried about her son and she was ready to interfere if anything were to go wrong, Xiao knew that he was very strong so she wasn’t worried but felt angry as she looked at the two brothers, she wanted to go there and cut them both into pieces.
Both the brothers stood on either side of Jayden, ready to attack, in the next moment they pounced towards him and under everyone’s stunned gazes Jayden took a couple of steps back and the brothers began attacking each other as if they had seen their mortal enemy.
*CLANG* *CLANG*
Jayden observed them in satisfaction, as more and more wounds appeared on both the brother’s bodies, with blood thirsty expressions, they waved their swords at each other, not caring about the wounds they were receiving.
” What the hell is going on? Why are they just attacking each other instead of that boy? “A man from the crowd asked out loud.
” D- Did he use some kind of illusion technique? ” Another person asked.
The first brother waved his sword in a horizontal slash, leaving behind a deep gash on his brother, and the second stabbed the first in his left arm.
Within seconds, the battle became bloody, they didn’t care about their own bodies and just sliced crazily.
” Huhu, I have to say you are stronger than I expected, but this is where you will di- ughhhhh ”
Before he could finish the second brother hit his leg, throwing him back.
” Is that all? I would have expected more from you kukuku. ” The second brother said, showing a cruel grin.
Then, both brothers again engaged in a fierce battle, after a dozen minutes both were lying on the ground panting heavily, with the injuries they had received they wouldn’t be able to move for more than a year.
After a few seconds, they both fell unconscious, they had recieved mission from Qiang to destroy Jayden’s energy core if they met him during the competition, that’s why they acted so cruelly specially towards him.
The first brother had both his legs broken and one of his arms was sliced off while the second brother’s energy centre was destroyed, and both his hands were broken.
” T- The battle has ended, W- Wang Jin is the winner. ” The young elder announced in disbelief.
While the crowd watched in stunned silence, they still couldn’t understand just what happened, then Emma and Jayden’s wives began cheering for him loudly, and slowly the entire crowd erupted in loud discussions and cheers.
Without saying anything, Jayden walks back to his seat, leaving behind a confused elder.
‘ How the hell did he do this? Maybe it would be better for me to not mess with him, who knows what he might become in the future. ‘ the elder thought and began announcing the results of the other team.
As Jayden got near his seat, he saw Gang kneeling on the ground his head lowered in a respectful bow.
” Respected master, you have returned? Let me clean your shoes, wait first please drink this you must be thirsty or do you want to eat something? This loyal servant will do as the master says. ” Gang said, his head almost touching the ground.
” Get back to your seat, did you win your match just now? ” Jayden said, he was getting annoyed by his behaviour and his huge body was attracting too much attention.
” Yes, most respectful master, this servant awaits your command. ” Gang said and slowly moved back to his seat, all the while keeping his head low, the more he watched Jayden the afraid he became.
Jayden saw that Bao had lost his match, and was observing the battles from a different seat, though he would soon get a big prize from his bet.
The young elder cleared his throat loudly and began explaining the next battles:
” Ten final disciples have been selected, now these ten will move onto the next stage of the competition. And we will choose the next pairs for battle through a lucky draw, after this round only five disciples will be left. ”
Saying that he asked for someone to bring a bowl that was filled with paper balls in which the names of five odd numbered disciples were written.
” Now, the five even numbered disciples will come and choose a ball, the name on the paper will decide your next opponent. ”
The elder said while shuffling the papers properly. Gang bowed in front of Jayden and then walked away:
” Master, I will not fail you. ” He said, as he walked away.
