The Supreme God of Martial Arts

The two hundred contenders immediately engaged in heated battle the moment the Outstanding Talents Exchange Games started.

Leo of the Peripatetic Sect reduced the principal disciple of the Sun Sect to dust with one punch. It was so powerful that even his soul was completely destroyed. The audience roared in awe of Leo's strength.

The leader of the Peripatetic Sect held his head high, proud of his disciple. He praised Leo extensively. On the contrary, Theon, the leader of the Sun Sect, watched over the proceedings with stern disappointment.

Disappointment was written on his face.

Still, even he had to admit that Leo was stronger than his disciple.

All he could do was to shake his head with resignation.

In the other battle rings...

"Freeze!" cried one of the contenders.

A strong disciple named Michael sent by Prince Reuben was battling with an elegant dame.

While most men would have grown soft, Michael was unfazed by her beauty. He was indifferent to her appeal and was even consumed by severe coldness. With his powers, he summoned a blizzard to cover his opponent with snow. The woman struggled but eventually turned motionless as ice engulfed her. All her vital energy was left unusable putting all her special skills to waste.

Realizing that her chances were quickly slimming, she crushed the number plate in her hand just in time, getting herself out of the battle ring immediately, and sparing herself from the shof slow defeat.

"Lie down!" Braxton, the principal disciple of Sun Sect, called out, collecting the power of heaven and earth with one massive punch. As his vital energy burst out of him, a hundred stars appeared and cshooting down on his opponent, quickly ending the life of the young cultivator.

"It's lucky that we still have sprincipal disciples who could win. Otherwise, it will be such a huge disgrace for our sect," Theon, the Leader of Sun Sect, remarked. He was relieved to find chances to redeem their reputation in the formidable fighters from the Sun Sect.

In another battle ring...

"Puff!" A principal disciple of Flaming Sun Valley threw a huge punch with a fist covered in hot, massive flames. The young woman's clothes immediately burned, exposing her tender breasts. Blood gushed from her mouth and in a few seconds, she was dead.

It was such a humiliating way to be killed in battle.

"God damn! What a nice body! That's as rare as a white tiger! Aw, man. | wish | met her in bed, not in battle!" the principal disciple of Flaming Sun Valley commented as he looked at his opponent's naked corpse. He licked his lips with desire, fantasizing.

"There are so many undiscovered young talents! Great! | counted around six or seven cultivators who seem to have already reached premium stage of the Earth Realm.

And to think, this is only the first batch of fights in the battle rings!" Emperor Arthur shared excitedly while doing his best to pay attention to all 100 battles that took place at the stime.

"| also noticed a certain young man in battle ring 63. | estimate him to be around sixteen or seventeen at the most. Quite young! And yet, his sword intent is astounding! He used it to beat his opponent even after his opponent comprehended a level 5 sword intent! It's hard to tell from where I'm standing but it must be safe to assthat he conjured something like a level 7 sword intent! The vital energy around him fluctuated faintly, too, so it's really hard to see through his real cultivation base. I'm guessing that was another skill he learned: to hide his real strength! Interesting! Very interesting, indeed!" he continued, seemingly thinking more to himself than with anyone else.

Of course, the emperor was talking about the battle between Austin and Shawn of Flaming Sun Valley.

The head of Flaming Sun Valley also noticed Austin. He shook his head slowly with raw disappointment. He looked at Austin murderous hatred.

The corner of Theon's eye twitched. As the Leader of the Sun Sect, violent thoughts filled his mind as he stood in silence.

Barely half a year ago, he witnessed Austin just starting to learn how to cultivate his vital energy. His cultivation base was only at level two or three of the Energy Gathering Realm.

'How long has it been?’ he thought. In just six months, Austin not only reached premium stage of the Earth Realm, he also learned to comprehend level 7 sword intent.

As it were, if he continued to cultivate at such a speed, then he would potentially be more powerful than any principal disciple of the Sun Sect.

No one would ever expect someone as powerful from the Sun Sect. If Austin could somehow be part of their team, then the Sun Sect would definitely be recognized and be powerful enough to enter the Mysterious Nether World.

At this right moment, Austin was leading in his fight against Shawn. He seemed to have eliminated all of Shawn's battle sense. He stepped forward offensively while Shawn kept stepping back. Austin looked calm, confident, and dominant. It was evident that he held all the cards. Theon watched, and impressed. ‘What a talented young man!" he cannot help but think.

Genius! Austin was definitely a genius! Unfortunately, Austin had already been removed from the Sun Sect.

When he thought about this, he looked at the head of the Flaming Sun Valley who stood next to him. If it were not for them and the Blood Wolf Team, Austin would not have been expelled and the Sun Sect would not have lost such a powerful disciple.

"Listen! Does anyone know who this young man is? Where is he from? Which sect does he belong to?" the emperor started to ask. Austin seemed to have also gotten Emperor Arthur's attention.

"Your Majesty, he used to be a disciple of the Sun Sect. His nis Austin.

But about one month ago, he was expelled. And now, | believe he no longer belongs to any sect," Theon replied.

"Oh, he was a disciple of your sect and was removed a month ago?" Emperor Arthur asked, stunned.

"Yes. It was extremely complicated. It had something to do with animosity between Austin and the Flaming Sun Valley and the Blood Wolf Team." Theon explained.

"Well, | don't want to get involved in conflicts between sects, but this young man really has huge potential," Emperor Arthur commented.

In battle ring 63: "It's impossible... Impossible..." Shawn mumbled as he once again was forced to step back as Austin stepped forward. His foundation and sword intent were broken so he dared not step forward and make a move.

He knew that as if he did, he would be kicked back violently! His sword intent had been dejected! Now, he had almost no will to fight. His confidence was obliterated.

Austin continued to pressure Shawn.

He had complete control of the situation. With one punch, Shawn knew that Austin could end him once and for all.

Level 7 sword intent covered the battle ring as if it were a mantle of protection that lay gently on the world.

Shawn's cultivation base was not strong enough to break such a setup.

But, Austin didn't rush to make any move. He took his sweet time.

Ever since he comprehended level 7 sword intent, he hadn't had the chance to use it well. Now that he was in a real battle, he was determined to make the most of the opportunity to gain experience, master it, and learn how to use it to beat his opponent.

Austin knew that comprehending level 7 sword intent is one thing. But to be able to fully maximize its power and use it to his advantage was another. He needed practice.

So, Austin started to play with Shawn as if he were a cat playing a mouse. He used his level 7 sword intent to suppress Shawn while he assessed how level 7 sword intent worked.

In just a few minutes, Austin already managed to force Shawn to go from one side of the battle ring to another.

The latter was sweating like a pig. His sweat dripped as if he were completely submerged in a huge lake.

'Well, | have completely suppressed him in terms of sword intent.

Now, lettry my flesh power. How powerful is stage five of Overlord Body-refining Formula? It's show time." Austin said to himself.
