As Marcus’s figure attacked, the Red Titan behind his body followed his movements. If one were to view this from a distance, it would look as if the human and titan had merged together. Brandishing its immense hand in claw shape toward Jaden’s figure, it looked ready to shred him apart. In this instant, the violent brandish caused a strong gale and the titan’s roar shook the heavens.
Jaden’s body suddenly pulled back, his eyes turning incomparably sharp. He couldn’t help but admit that the high-tier Martial Skill Marcus was using could instantly kill a fifth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator... Even your average sixth-grade Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was simply not his equal. However, in front of Jaden, that was far from enough!
In an instant, Jaden’s eyes suddenly shut tight. Within his heart was a mysterious feeling. The Black Meteorite Sword in Jaden’s hands felt as though it had received a sort of attraction, and suddenly, his body began to tremble, letting out a buzzing sound. Beneath the killing move, Red Titan's Bloody Claw, this sound was exceedingly weak. However, the attendees who were watching this battle were all at the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm, and they could immediately sense the noise.
“This….” The Second Elder and Third Elder took a deep breath and said in astonishment, “Could it possibly be the legendary ‘One with the Sword’?”
In the moment when the two people’s voices came out, Jaden had already struck out with his Sword. The Sword was aggressive and gracious, domineering and tyrannical. Following this was an explosion of sound like thunder. An ice cold aura suddenly surged throughout the Hall of Conference.
“Heavenly Star Sword Technique!”
When the Sword chopped out, there would be only death; no wound. The killing intent immediately surged.
********
Marcus was dumbfounded. He never expected the unremarkable Sword in Jaden’s hands to actually emanate such a frightening power. At this point, he no longer had any room for regret.
Beneath the eyes of the people present, a sharp Sword light heavily struck the top of the immense Red Titan’s head. The mighty and tyrannical Red Titan was forcibly shredded into pieces in an instant.
“Ah!”
Marcus gave out a miserable shriek as his body was severed like the string on a kite. He was struck, flying straight into the wall. The result of this match was decided in just a single move.
The entire Conference Hall sunk into a deadly silence, and the crowd widened their eyes. The scene just a moment ago felt like a dream; they were simply unable to come back to their senses.
Marcus actually lost? The number one genius of the Shiba Clan actually lost?
Marcus, possessing a Sky-gradeBloodline Limit, was actually unable to win against Jaden, who didn’t even use his Bloodline Limit?
“How...how is this possible?”
“Son, you…” Being the number one expert of Shiba Clan, William was the first to come back to his senses; his face revealed an astonishment and delight, “Your Sword Art... Is that the Sky-grade Martial Skill, Heavenly Star Sword Technique? Hahaha! that’s definitely my son. You have actually polished your Sword Art to this degree. Although it’s not quite at the true ‘One with the Sword’ level, it has already touched upon the entrance of it.
William brushed off his previous attitude; his complexion was very florid. However, his words were like a sudden clap of thunder, once more being thrown into the Conference Hall and causing those present to be overwhelmed with shock. Jaden had actually used a Sky-grade Martial Skill!
He used a Sky-grade Martial Skill, and knocked on the doors to the ‘One with the Sword’ stage. Not only that, but he had defeated Marcus, who possessed a sky-grade Bloodline Limit! In this moment, the present attendees and Elders felt a painful scorching heat on their faces.
They mocked Jaden’s Bloodline Limit grade, claiming his cultivation was not enough, but then they were slapped in the face by Jaden’s fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm. However, just now, they ridiculed Jaden once more for accepting the duel request from Marcus, assuming he was bringing about his own defeat, but once again, they were caught off guard by Jaden’s shocking abilities. This caused the crowd to consider Jaden’s past achievements.
A genius is a genius, it’s impossible to suppress one’s genius.
In the next moment, they looked directly at Jaden. Their eyes were no longer shuttered with disdain. Although a Yellow-grade Bloodline Limit is not destined to have any prospects in the future, and it's simply incomparable with Marcus, the current Jaden emerged victorious. No matter what happened, he was the one who had claimed victory; thus, one could only respect him.
“You…. you….. You…” Victor stretched his hands out and pointed at Jaden with trembling fingers. He continuously repeated “you” ten more times before a ‘Pu’ sound was heard. He was so angry that he started to cough blood.
Originally, the matter of William being replaced by Victor was already concluded, however, who would’ve thought that Jaden would interrupt. How could Victor not be angry? However, no matter how angry he became, he could only hold it within his heart. This caused internal injuries to occur within him.
“Impossible! How is this possible?” a sharp voice resounded. Marcus stood up with his face filled with rage as he frantically shouted, “How could a waste like you defeat me? I am a genius, you are only a waste!” At this moment, Marcus had finally gone crazy, as he talked without reason.
How could Marcus not go crazy after being defeated by an insignificant waste who possessed a Yellow-grade Bloodline Limit? Additionally, he didn’t even use his Bloodline Limit, whereas Marcus himself had used a high-level Martial Skill and his full strength.
I, Marcus, should be the number one genius in the Shiba Clan!
Jaden’s face was expressionless. If one were to carefully look at him, one would notice a layer of meticulous cold sweat. As William stated before, Jaden had only touched upon the entrance of ‘One with the Sword Realm’. The breath-taking chop that he used just now had already exceeded his physical capabilities.
“Say something!” Marcus continued to shriek, “You trash, say something!....”
Although Jaden’s strength was exhausted, his eyes still remained the same as before; emanating a cold aura. “Marcus, don’t think your sky-grade Bloodline Limit is impressive. Let me tell you, there are People beyond People, and Heavens beyond Heavens. Thus, you shouldn’t be overestimating yourself. Seeing how you are a disciple of the Shiba Clan, I’ll give you a word of advice... Today, you are not a match for me, and neither will you be in the future. Thus, don’t look down on people with your dog-like eyes.”
“You….” Marcus got so mad that his body began to tremble, his face turned purple, yet unexpectedly, he was unable to retort.
The present attendees felt their faces scorch once more. It was as if the words Jaden said were directed toward them as well.
“Jaden, I will definitely not forget about this. Once a trash, always a trash. Today, you may have defeated me, but so what? In the future, I will be the disciple of Heavenly Sword Sect, whereas you will be nothing. Grandfather, let us leave!” as Qing Changkong got to this point, he felt the chill in Jaden’s eyes. His heart suddenly shivered, and he no longer dared to say anything else as he dragged Victor to leave.
If they were to stay any longer, then it’d be bringing more disgrace on themselves. As the grandfather and grandson left, the Conference Hall’s atmosphere once again froze. At first, there were some attendees who wanted to seize that opportunity and slip away. After feeling Jaden’s gaze on themselves, they could only endure it and stay.
In actuality, they had no need to dread Jaden at all. That was because Jaden’s cultivation was definitely not a match for them. Furthermore, Jaden’s current strength was only temporarily stronger. At the end of the day, his Bloodline Limit was only of a Yellow-grade It was simply not on par with Marcus. However, because Jaden won over the Marcus who stood at the peak in their heart, this caused their instinct to instigate fear.
“I would like to ask if the present people are still planning on Challenging my father? Is it still wrong if my dad gives me five hundred Qi Nurturing Pills?” Jaden asked indifferently.
