Hitman with a Badass System-Chapter 34: Final Fight III
"Hahaha, are you kidding me? I started to respect you when you step on the 100th step, but it seems like you let that get to your head and turned into more like her, with your level, you'll never be able to withstand any of my attacks" Evan Clarke sneered at Micheal and looked offended by him when he asked to attack him together.
"Really?" he asked indifferently and noticed the white tiger behind him growing bigger and bigger. The power the white tiger radiated made the people watching the scene shiver, but he was pretty calm and cool.
Sensing the colossal oppressing straight coming from the White tiger, Victoria waited to see how Ghost was going to defend himself and until now he didn't take his weapon out.
"Wrath of Tiger"
Evan shouted and punched the air in the direction where Micheal is standing as the tiger leaped at him.
"Lightning dash"
Looking at the tiger coming in his direction, he calmly activated the lightning dash skill and moved towards Evan like a lightning bolt. The lightning dash skill reminded him of the famous Dc character flash as the skill made him the flash of this world. Although he couldn't compare to the actual speed of flash, the level 1 lightning dash made him run at an insane speed as many people could only see a bolt of lightning whenever he activated the skill.
In a few seconds, after he disappeared from where he was standing, the tiger's gigantic paw hit the place and emitted an extremely loud explosion.
"BOOOOOOM!"
Evan Clarke Hao's facial expression immediately changed as he sensed he struck nothing but the empty ground and felt a mild pain on his throat like he was bitten by an ant.
"What happened?"
"How is he still alive?"
When the white tiger's figure faded away after the attack, the crowd saw Ghost was still standing there without realizing that he had already moved and attacked Evan.
When Micheal saw that Evan Clarke Hao had a bewildered look on his face, he said while smiling coldly, "You lost"
The crowd was confused when he said that but Victoria and Evan realized the meaning of his word.
"I..."
A small cut on Evan's throat started to become visible and blood leaked out from his throat. If the cut was a few more inches deep, he would have died, and thinking about this, he shuddered in fear.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 100 badass points]
Celina and the three prodigies standing on the top saw what happened more clearly than Victoria and the crowd due to their higher cultivation level. They knew that Evan's reaction speed was much slower and if Ghost wanted to kill him, he would have killed him.
"I lost"
After realizing that Ghost spared his life, Evan admitted the loss right away with dignity and jumped down the stage without looking at anyone. Micheal could only sigh in his heart as he just lost a huge amount of experience due to the system's warning about killing Evan.
And Evan admitting his defeat right away was a little anticlimactic for him because Micheal had thought he would admit arrogantly and refuse to back down which could have resulted in more fight and more badass points.
"Why did he say he lost?"
"What did I miss?"
"Idiot, look at his throat, can you see he was bleeding and who do you think could have done that?"
The crowd slowly started to guess what happened when they noticed the blood leaking out of Evan's throat and swallowed a mouth full of saliva looking at Ghost.
"How fast!"
"What kind of spell did he use?"
They used to think that even though Micheal proved himself in the battle with Orion, most of them still didn't think he would be stronger than Evan and Victoria in terms of actual battle prowess.
However, at this moment, they really thought that he was stronger than both of them.
Elder Miles and the people of the Sunrise sect were also watching Micheal and started to think very highly of him. They had thought that Micheal wasn't that strong before but after seeing what just happened to Evan, they realized how ignorant they had been.
"Even though we don't know him well, he's obviously a real genius. He must have been gifted ever since his birth. With him as our disciple, we really have a shot at reviving our sect again" First time in a long time Elder Mark breathed a sigh of relief and he really believed they could use him to revive their declined sect.
"You rely on your speed too much, and if you think you can do the same thing you did to Evan, you are going to be disappointed"
Victoria sounded arrogant and self-confident again. She had recovered from her previous emotions. Relying on her rare flaming phoenix spell and a defense spell, she tried to break Micheal's confidence.
"Speed? I don't need to rely on the speed to defeat you, you're thinking yourself too highly"
Just as everyone was thinking he would do the same to Victoria, he raised both hands as several bolts of lightning and a huge blast of wind appeared in front of him.
"Flame of phoenix"
Victoria's pupils were suddenly dilated as she quickly shouted. The phoenix above her breathed a hot stream of fire and clashed with his lightning bolts and wind blast.
But when the fire met the wind blast, it was pushed away from him and put off in a few seconds. As for the lightning bolts, it didn't even slow down a bit as it went straight through the flames and hit her body with enormous power. The moment the lightning bolts plus the remnant force of the wind blast and the golden layer of defense she had around her body clashed, a thunderous roar spread throughout the stadium.
"BOOOM!"
Victoria groaned as she was already blown backward and looked extremely fragile and weak. She slid back to the edge of the fighting stage. One more step backward and she would have fallen off.
At that moment, the crowd didn't know what was going on anymore, they were too confused. Micheal had astonished them too many times.
Each time Micheal moved, they found him amazing, but each time, they also realized they had been underestimating him. It seemed like his strength was ever-increasing. None of them couldn't guess the depth of his powers. At this exact moment, he bested two of the superstars of the younger generations quickly and easily.
They remembered how they had thought that either Evan Clarke or Victoria Parker was definitely going to win this competition and had put no one else in their eyes.
The crowd was not the only one to think that way. Alex and Celina, but especially the latter, when she first met him, he was such a weakling and never even reached the Body refining stage. He was barely able to escape her using some weird spell, at that point, she only thought he obtained these spells through luck. When he was put up to fight with Evan and Victoria, she had never imagined that he would easily beat them.
"What a freak of nature"
Sadie's eyes widened looking at him and she was glad that he made a deal to save her junior considering even Evan and Victoria were defeated so easily by him.
"Do you still think you have the talent to teach me?" said Micheal while walking towards her as he blatantly humiliated her. Micheal was filled with annoyance because of this arrogant girl's behavior but what enraged Micheal the most was, that this girl didn't show a shred of respect towards anyone. In her mind, she thought she was superior to everyone and expected others to worship and respect her. He couldn't stand this arrogant and haughty girl who didn't even withstand a single attack from him.
For the first time in her entire life, she was starting to feel ashamed of herself when she remembered what she had said. She felt like she was made a clown in front of all these people.
"Join your sect, meet you now and then, who do you think you are? What made you think that I would ever want to meet you?"
Micheal continued to talk and made her understand how ridiculous she was and that she had no right to be arrogant. Victoria had the feeling that her face was burning. She had no words to speak to refute back at him.
The crowd hadn't been so excited as at that moment. He gradually was showing more and more strength, he was gradually becoming more and more awesome. At first, he shocked the entire stage by stepping on the 100th step and creating a new record, and now, he had bested the two prodigies without breaking a sweat.
"There's a fine line between arrogance and confidence, think about it"
The crowds looked forward to what he was going to do as he stepped closer to Victoria and stood only a step away from her.
"Ah!"
Just like in the movies, Micheal Sparta kicked her on the chest and sent her flinging from the stage.
"Sister Victoria!"
The disciples from the Golden Valley boys and girls rushed at her and caught her without letting her hit the ground.
"He won!"
"He WON!"
"GHOST!"
The crowd erupted in cheers and filled the stadium with the sound of their thunderous claps as Micheal stood there alone on the battle stage.
The four prodigies from the top saw Victoria's unconscious body and sighed because this was the first time the rewards were going to another sect other than their three big sects.
"Brother Ghost won!"
"Sect leader Claire, Elders, he won!"
Just as the disciples of the Sunrise sect became excited, they saw Celine throwing a small ring to Ghost from standing on the top.
"The rewards are in the space ring"
After she said that, she and Alex didn't even come down as they flew away on their flying swords while Adam nodded at him and left with them.
The only person who came down to the stage was Sadie
"The gold coins of our little deal are also in that space ring, keep it safe and congratulations on your victory, Ghost"
"Thank you, Miss Kaplan, see you later, after all this, I need a long nap"
He was obviously the biggest winner of this competition, an unknown rogue cultivator who appeared as a dark horse, defeating all the disciples from the three big sects and taking first place in the first round as well as the second round. He had now become truly famous and the name Ghost would soon be spread across the entire Bredia kingdom, and everyone would know his name.
"Congratulations to master Ghost for taking first place in Heaven's gate competition, We'll be leaving first but if the master Ghost has time in the future, you're always welcome to visit the SilverMoon and we will personally give you a VIP treatment"
Hannah Berry let out an alluring smile and started to flirt with him.
"This bitch disgusts me!"
Gaya shouted angrily and the way she shouted was definitely not the way she shouts at Micheal.
As she said, she and the rest of the SilverMoon students left the square and considering he did not belong to the three big sects, none of the disciples from the three sects remained any longer.
