Chapter 20 - First Battle
historical
In the streets, Davion was walking while using his Mind-Eye technique. He was recording all the unique breaths of people in his mind. "This technique is really legendary. It allows me to see everything that has breath. Eh.. but I am noticing that a person with a sharp breath is following me for a long time. There is another familiar breath next to that person."
"Are they trying to steal something from me? But that person looks like he is at least in the early stage of Qi refining. But why is he following me? I don't have anything valuable. It looks like I have to go to a desolate place and see what they want from me."
Making up his mind, Davion tried to get far away from the center of the city. He started running and used his Mind-Eye, and quickly found a desolate alley where nobody was there.
Seeing that Davion started running, Colton got anxious, "Senior brother, we should hurry. It looks like he found us."
"A mortal won't be able to escape from me." said the young man confidently and both of them started chasing.
After a while, they came to a desolate alley and saw a young man with hands behind his back and they heard him saying, "It's you, the disciple from Iron Sword Sect, that got beaten up by me."
Listening to Davion, Colton got very angry and pointed towards Davion's right hand and said, "Senior brother, he might have used a treasure to beat me. He is wearing a space ring too."
"Ehh..It looks like he called his Senior Brother. I have to be careful next time if I have a dispute with someone. This just looks like those novels which I used to read. Will his elder come if I beat him up? No this should not be the case. Those sects have only sent their disciples for this ceremony." while Davion was pondering he saw that the young man took out his sword and came forward.
"I can feel no energy fluctuations around you. Indeed, you are a mortal. How could a mortal possess a space ring? It looks like you have some treasure." The young man looked at Davion with greedy eyes.
"Colton, you did a good job today. I will reward you later. Let me take care of this kid first."
"I think you guys should stop. I have already joined a sect." Davion took out the badge that he got from Isla and showed the young man.
Colton got a little nervous when he saw that badge. There will be big trouble if a battle occurs among the sects during the ceremony. You will get punished by those big sects.
Suddenly the young man laughed, "HAHA, you joined the Bone and Devil Sect? Nobody joins that sect. It looks like you have trash talent or maybe it is because of that treasure, you managed to join. Even if I kill you here, nobody will care about you and your lowly sect. But I am in a good mood today, so just leave that ring and I Jacob shall let you live."
"My God, how could people of this world try to do everything by force? I thought only in those novels, such things could have happened. It looks like I need to make a move." So Davion took out the sword that he bought recently and calmly said, "Come."
Seeing that Davion took out his sword, Jacob felt humiliated. "I gave you a chance, but it looks like you won't cherish it. Don't blame me kid." saying this he took out a broadsword from his ring.
"Let me show you our sect's Iron Sword Technique."
Jacob poured his Qi into the sword and the whole sword started to turn green. He immediately came in front of Davion in a few seconds and used his Iron Sword Technique, "First move: Iron splitter"
The sword produced a shockwave in a few meters radius around it and came straight towards Davion. Feeling the force trying to push him back, Davion thought, "Even though his cultivation is the same as the thunderwolf that I killed, but with this sword technique, the power is far greater than that. I think I should use half of my spiritual energy just in case."
He made up his mind and poured his spiritual energy into the sword and just swung it casually. The sword only looked a little brighter than it usually was. It looked too small and insignificant compared with Jacob's.
"HAHA, do you think with this amateur move, you can beat my senior brother?"Seeing this, Colton couldn't help but burst out laughing.
But his laughter soon came to a hold. What did he see?
He saw that when the tiny sword collided with the broadsword, the broadsword looked like butter and it broke into pieces and Jacob flew straight next to him while vomiting blood. When he was about to catch Jacob and run, he found out that Jacob had passed out. So, he immediately took out his ring and begged, "Sir, please take this ring and let us go."
Before Davion could answer, he saw that Colton had already left the ring on the ground; carried Jacob on his back, and ran away.
