The imposing figure of Stonebreaker instantly made his entrance, and the spectators erupted in cheers. He was an extrely burly man with a pair of fists that looked hardened like iron. These iron fists had earned him the nickna "Stonebreaker," a nod to his brutal, direct fighting style.
"Stonebreaker, you are aweso!"
"Stonebreaker, I love you!"
But as soon as Vahn, clad in a crimson battle robe, made his calm entrance from the opposite side, the atmosphere shifted instantly. Spectators began to mock him for his "pretty boy" appearance and the infamous reputation of the "useless Young Master" Damien Infernos.
Vahn ignored the noise, focusing only on the man standing before him.
The imposing figure of Stonebreaker filled the arena with aggressive presence. The body cultivator, looking fierce, roared, "Get ready, brat! Today you will learn a different way to crawl into your mommy’s arms."
He charged at once. With each step, the ground trembled under his weight. His fists, like reinforced tal gloves, quickly thrust forward, intending to crush Vahn’s head.
Vahn, already prepared with his Hellbringer Saber, made a casual slash onto the incoming fist, wanting to test the other party’s power.
Clang!
Surprisingly, the collision made a loud clang, as if tal was clashing against tal. Stonebreaker was grinning, trying to outdo Vahn by sheer physical force.
Vahn, montarily alard by the terrifying raw strength, quickly jumped backward in a swift motion. He instantly recognized the danger of matching a dedicated body cultivator in a physical brawl.
"Tch, why are you running back like a coward now, young master?" Stonebreaker mocked.
"Because I am not a fool," Vahn replied, his voice calm as ever. "Since you’re a body cultivator who trained his body for years, I would definitely not be able to match it. But if that’s all you have, big guy, then it’s goodbye..."
"Arrogant brat!" the man roared, unleashing a barrage of fist strikes.
But Vahn easily dodged them, utilizing his refined Spirit Sense to predict the attacks and his elental power to enhance his speed.
Vahn’s body was practically overflowing with spiritual energy, an undeniable aura of power that made the spectators doubt Stonebreaker’s imminent victory. Their perception of the "useless Damien" was rapidly changing.
"Amazing, Big brother! Beat the Bad Guy!" From the viewing box, Delilah shouted with loud excitent.
So spectators frowned. "Damn! Who the hell is that unruly girl now?"
"That’s Damien’s little sister, don’t you know?"
"Ohh, so he brings his little sister to his show. Hmph, let’s see how long his show-off lasts."
anwhile, Lily and Maria quickly blocked Delilah’s mouth, stopping her loud cheers that stung the wounded hearts of those who had bet against Damien.
Damien (Vahn), whom they had deed unworthy and talentless, was suddenly showing overwhelming power. And so people definitely didn’t like it.
Because Damien’s unexpected rise ant the Power Balance of Fire Cloud City would have to shift in the future. The established higher Clans and powers wouldn’t want that.
Vahn’s public display of power was drawing targets, but also creating the perfect, terrifying reputation he needed.
"Now, it’s ti to end this," Vahn declared.
Vahn knew the ti for theatrics was over. He needed to end the fight instantly to maximize his planning ti.
With his command, the Hellbringer Saber instantly erupted into a blazing, multicolored fla as he summoned the raw power of the Ninefold Heavenly Flas.
Not only that, he channeled his full Foundation Establishnt Stage 3 power.
Then, Vahn leaped upward like a leopard, the montum of his jump focusing all his weight and spiritual energy into a single, devastating overhead slash aid directly at Stonebreaker’s "Iron Fist," which was currently pale with fear.
Crack!
The collision this ti was truly groundbreaking. The famous Iron Fist, Stonebreaker’s pride and defense, cracked loudly, the sound echoing throughout the silent arena.
The body cultivator was overwheld with the power this Strange multicoloured fla.
"Ahhh!"
Stonebreaker couldn’t hold on any longer. He let out a agonizing scream as he collapsed onto his knees, shattering the stone platform beneath him.
His arms dangled lifelessly from shoulder.
He was defeated in a single, magnificent move.
The spectators rose from their seats in silent shock. The man they had mocked monts earlier had just shattered the renowned Stonebreaker’s defense with what looked like terrifying ease.
They realized Damien was far stronger than he had displayed until now. He had just been toying with Stonebreaker all this ti.
Even the other challengers narrowed their eyes, taking Vahn more seriously. Among them, Cedric Goldlight was fuming. He couldn’t understand how this "useless guy" had suddenly turned out to be so powerful.
Then, the rumors of Damien getting a powerful Master’s discipleship crossed into his mind.
"Is that Master really that strong? Or is there still sothing I am missing here?" he couldn’t help but murmur in doubt.
Vahn still didn’t move from the Battle Circle. As the victor, he had the right to choose his next challenger or leave with his reward. Naturally, Vahn wouldn’t leave just yet.
He kept challenging more opponents. And with each battle, his battle experience soared, his control refined, and his techniques improved. The Arena was the perfect crucible to integrate his new Fire Affinity and the devastating power of the Ninefold Heavenly Flas into his fighting style.
He won five consecutive matches in a row, causing an uproar among the spectators and the Arena Managent. Thinking this was their chance to spread the Arena’s na further, the officials sent out even more powerful opponents, one after another, trying to find Vahn’s limit.
Vahn managed to defeat them all, using a mix of blinding speed, crushing elental power, and strategic dismantling of his enemies’ defenses.
At the 10th Victory, everyone was speechless. The crowd could now watch Vahn’s magnificent Saber Skills combined with his flawless Fire Arts with genuine admiration in their eyes. The mory of the "useless Damien" was fading, replaced by the legend of the Unstoppable Heir.
More and more people converted as Vahn’s supporters, their initial mockery turning into fierce devotion.
Late into the night, under the silver moon, they chanted his na in cheers:
"Young Master Damien Is UNBEATABLE!"
Vahn stood in the center of the ring, not even a scratch could be seein on his crimson robe.
He looked slightly, but internally, Vahn was greatly satisfied with result.
He had grown from rookie to expert Warrior within just a day.
And now, it was ti to face his final opponent.
The announcer ca into battle Circle in jovial mood.
"Haha, yet another amazing victory for Young Master Damien! But, wait for it, the challenge is about to get personal!"
The crowd hushed in anticipation as the announcer’s voice changed into a tone of reverence:
"Coming now to face young master Damien, the one and only—Young Master Cedric Goldlight! Our Forr Champion with 15 consecutive wins!"
"YEAHHH!" A deafening cheer erupted from the spectators, the noise expanding like a tidal wave.
"BOOM!" The sound of drums echoed, and the atmosphere grew thick with the promise of a legendary duel.
"The night will end with a magnificent fight between these two prodigies. Let us see who will erge as the final victor!"
The crowd roared,"Bring It On!"
"Ah, Cedric; My Champion, ah!"
Their voices reverberated like a chorus of excitent. Most of them were already Cedric’s fanatics.
Vahn’s lips twitched into a small smirk. The true fight was about to begin.
