The Story Never Ends
Chapter 52 - The Bone And Devil Sect Vs The Flame Blossom Sect

"It looks like there is only one task remaining now." Edgar was full of smiles in the stands. Then he looked in the direction of Thaddeus and smirked.

"It's been a few minutes and nobody has gone to the arena to issue a challenge. It looks like we have to announce it. What do you think, everyone?"

"Yeah, this idea looks feasible."

"We always used to challenge immediately when the battle ended. But these younger generations…."

"They are not brave like us."

"They are timid."

The other elders agreed and started criticizing those disciples. Seeing this Edgar became happy. "Let's start with the sect in the bottom ranking. Thaddeus, are you ok with it?"

Those elders knew that Edgar was specifically targeting Thaddeus. They knew some insider news about the two of them. Edgar was asking for the grounds of the Bone and Devil sect. The conflict was due to this reason. Since Edgar had already promised them benefits, nobody wanted to speak against him.

So, they looked at Thaddeus with pity.

Thaddeus's hands were already shaking listening to them. Seeing them all looking at him, what could he say? So, he just agreed. "You can do whatever you want."

Edgar laughed, "Ok, this is it."

He stood up and shouted, "Since nobody came down, we made a decision that the sect ranked in the bottom can challenge first. That is the Bone and Devil Sect."

"Damn, what a bully." Thaddeus cursed inside.

Davion was surprised when the name of his sect came first. He looked in the direction of the voice and found that the person was the one he saw the other day. "That's the elder from the Blood Saber Sect. It looks like he is targeting us on purpose." While he was thinking, he saw that Hendrix had already stood up and was going towards the arena.

Davion also stood up. "Senior sister, let's follow him."

"Uhm." Isla nodded and they followed behind Hendrix.

When they entered the arena, they heard some laughter coming from the stands.

"They think of us as a joke?" Davion sighed.

Hendrix got angry listening to that laughter. He shouted immediately, "We want to challenge the Flame Blossom Sect."

After he finished speaking, the laughter came to a stop. In one of the stands, there were three disciples wearing red robes. They were two boys and a girl. They had one thing in common, that was their hair. They all had red hair.

"As we thought, they challenged us directly." Ahmir smiled.

"Hehe, they don't know that we have a one-time use spiritual artifact."

"Why are you so happy? Even without that artifact, we could still beat them. You should think about defeating the Plum Maiden Sect who are above us." The other boy at the side, Arian, looked unhappy.

"Why are you so serious every day? I am happy because I can get my revenge." Ahmir glanced at Arian.

"Looser." Arian mocked him.

"You.. Just wait and see. I will definitely beat him without the artifact." Ahmir went to the arena with anger.

The girl at the side, Abby, looked at the two of them and shook her head, "Why do you guys always fight?"

Arian huffed and followed after Ahmir.

"Wait for me, guys…"

***

In the arena, Davion asked Hendrix, "Senior brother, are you going to fight first?"'

"Yes, that Ahmir of the Flame Blossom Sect should be waiting for revenge. So, I want to go first. Not only that, he is at the middle stage of Qi refining, so Isla might be of no help." As for Davion, he didn't want to think about it.

Isla felt ashamed thinking about not being able to help him. But there was nothing she could do with her weak cultivation base. So, she simply stood there.

"Haha, do you guys still think you can beat us?" Ahmir's mocking voice came from the front.

They were coming from the opposite direction. Listening to Ahmir, Hendrix didn't get angry but rather smiled. "It looks like the previous beating was not enough to satisfy you, looser."

"F**k you." Ahmir leaped into the arena and cursed.

"Come, this time I will make sure that you will never dare to challenge us again."

Hendrix looked calm, "I will be going in then. Just wait for the good news."

He also leaped into the arena.

When they both entered the arena, the barrier enclosed them and they got both ready to battle.

Davion, Isla, and the other two disciples of the Flame Blossom Sect were outside the barrier.

"Haha, Thaddeus, it looks like your disciple is still confident about beating Ahmir. He might suffer if he thinks that Ahmir is the same as the one three years ago." Gideon laughed.

"This is true for Hendrix too. Ahmir might not even take a single blow." Thaddeus looked confident.

"Humph, let's see.." Gideon focused on the arena.
