The Tale of the Void Emperor-Chapter 693: High-Profile
"Elder Sinish! You only gave us ten seconds to bet after those three arrived here! We didn't even have time to do even superficial inspection on them! You clearly knew they were powerful, right?"
A middle-aged man with vampire fangs and crimson-gold eyes shouted towards floating Sinish in the stadium.
Sinish snorted and said, "of course not! I just wanted to start the battle game fast. I also didn't know they would be this powerful right after they arrived here."
Shaking his head, he announced the result, "Candidate Lily defeated the monster in 2.3 seconds! She currently holds the no.1 rank!"
After Lily came out of the portal gate, she grinned at Athan and said, "Athan, I wonder if you can beat this record?"
Hearing her words, the audience and everyone else was dumbfounded. The way she talked indicated that the guy actually had the capability to do that.
Can someone tell them where did these monsters come from?
The ten kings in the sky were also shocked at Lily's performance. However, after hearing her words, the other nine kings once again looked at King Limbark with doubt.
"If we can't see through that person, it means he has the capability or a power preceding us, interesting."
"Let's see how he performs. We might be able to find his origins once he uses his powers."
...
On the other hand, Athan shrugged and replied to Lily with a smile, "I am just going to test the skills I created. Let's see how it goes."
"Candidate Athan, It's your turn now," Sinish spoke as he looked at Athan with doubt and curiosity. He had no clue about this young man because he couldn't sense his aura at all.
The audience sighed and shut their mouth as they just decided to watch.
Inside the Trial Domain, there were ten very obscure eyes that nobody could see. They naturally belonged to those kings, so they could observe everyone's power and have been there from the start.
Athan walked towards the portal door unhurriedly and entered inside. While walking, he was thinking about how he should finish off the monster, 'since Lily challenged me, then I guess I'll use the Extremity Drifter and its void art.'
Athan's void art had different compatibility with his void frames. For instance, The void art compital with his Extremity Drifter Void frame was called Kinon Void Art.
Kinon Void Art had two skills: Rumbling Disaster and Point of Extremity. Both skills required the extreme speed of his entire body, and in Extremity Drifter void frame, he can speed up the action of every single fiber of his being to the current limit possible for him.
As Athan entered inside the portal door, he confused two Abyssal Blood Crystals and thought, 'guess I'll use Point of Extremity. It should be able to finish the things in a second.'
While entering inside the portal, the crystal on his forehead shined a bit as countless tendrils flashed on his body for a brief less than a second before he appeared in the trial domain.
The atmosphere in this domain was very hot, and the space was thicker than on the outside.
Athan didn't waste time after he came out of the portal and used Point of Extremity right away as he disappeared from his location and appeared just five meters away from the monster with his finger pointed at the monster.
Athan's body was vibrating at insane speed, even faster than light, as even the space bent around him. From his finger, A blinding crimson and black supernova were released in a huge area that covered the monster as it disappeared from everyone's view.
*CRACKK...BOOOOM...*
Behind him, the destruction followed due to his extreme speed and power that affected the ground and its surrounding, causing them to be destroyed as lava pillars shot towards the sky and loud sounds of wind and sound barrier-breaking reverberated.
Everything was over in one second, while this aftermath destruction followed after Athan obliterated the monster out of existence.
Athan nodded internally as he was satisfied with the Point of Extremity, this skill gathered all of his power that he produced through high speed and distance before converging into one point. From that point, the converged potent power would blast in front, with pure destruction.
He could increase the power of this skill even more with more time he converged the power by moving every fiber of his being at the extreme limit of speed possible for a longer time. The longer he held on, the more power he could produce. However, from the test did he once, he could hold out for three seconds as most before he had to release the power from the point.
Outside...
Everyone was stunned speechless outside, as they just watched the giant screens with wide eyes and opened mouths.
Even the ten kings floating in the sky had shock over their faces.
"What happened? Did anyone of you sense his power?" asked the King of Gojaal Empire with a dumbfounded expression.
"No...It's strange. I have never sensed that kind of power. However, I sensed his body's aura, and his body was also giving off a strange aura along with the powerful aura of blood and flesh."
"Indeed, his body structure is different from us as well. I didn't even sense a spec of Orchos energy from his body, which is very strange because everyone has it."
"Not everyone," said the king of the Noabu Empire while shaking his head.
"Wait, you mean...No, that's bull shit! His body is not that powerful, while the power he displayed also doesn't have such potency. There is no way that his existence has become Legendary," said the King of Klenkai Empire while shaking his head in disbelief.
"I know. However, only Legendary and Myth has their own unique existence, and they dominate the orchos to shape their way," said King Noabu.
"That's true, but...," King Izakin nodded before looking at Limbark, "Hey Limbark, what's going on? He is your candidate so you should know about it. Did Dreevindo say anything to you?"
"Heh, he was also shocked like us. I saw that," said Gojaal king with a mocking smile.
"Cough...Indeed, I don't know anything about him," Limbark king spoke with a wry smile, "Dreevindo only told me that no.1 rank is decided, and it belongs to Athan."
"Let's continue with the battle game now. We will meet with that Athan after everything is over," said the king of the Oppanu Empire, who was the most senior out of all of them and also was the strongest.
"Alright."
...
"C-candidate Athan defeated the monster in o-one second. He currently holds the no.1 rank!"
"Hey, slap me, please; I am not dreaming, right?"
*Slap!*
"Fuck! Why did you use that stinging power while slapping? It fucking hurts now! you're dead!"
"Relax! I was properly making sure that you were indeed not dreaming and everything was true. You lost your big bet that you put on him out of the first is true! Yes, everything is true!"
...
Lily and Huarin smiled wryly as Athan walked towards them and stood behind Dreevindo.
"I knew that you could break my record, but that was really very destructive and high profile."
"That was my intention from the start," said Athan with a faint smile as he looked at the ten seats in the sky.
