Gacha Sovereign 184 Shocking Everyone

"Boom!"

*Clang*

Clashing sound rumbling in the forest sky. Each clash is sending a shockwave and shattering sound.

"Sky Step"

"Sanguin Sword Art. Fifteenth Slash!"

"Sixth Strike!"

It is a clash between Alex and the monstrous yellow bird. Although it seems they are equal. In fact, Alex can't get into the offensive. He was just barely able to block those previous attacks from the yellow bird.

Alex used his Sky Step to lighten the gap between them somehow. But it was pretty ineffective. Their power gap is just that big. Before Alex can somehow kill a 9-Star Master Stage Monster, but it was with his 'Full Throttle'. This time, the one in front of him is stronger than that, it is a 10-Star bird. He also can't use his Full Throttle since there is still another big monster, lurking in the forest.

Anna can only support him a bit. Because of the last fight, she consumed most of her Spiritual Energy. As for Sherry...She is out of commission.

It is really hard to fight without his Spear, Fire, and Array. But he needs to do this to improve himself. Because of the limitation, People can be more creative and efficient in solving a problem. As the proof, Alex managed to unleash the last slash of Sanguin Sword Art, the Fifteenth Slash in this place.

"Sanguin Sword Art. Fifteenth Slash!"

"Boom!"

"Scree!"

The Sword Wave hit its wing and made its bleed. Unfortunately, it will only make the bird go frenzy. After that, the bird doesn't care about Alex's attacks and continue plunging Alex. Alex was utterly suppressed by it.

He can only do his last resort. "Anna! Dark Curtain!"

"Dark Curtain" Anna can't hesitate at this moment. She who can't fight with him at the moment, can only support him without questions. She made the biggest 'Dark Curtain' at the moment.

A big black sphere suddenly appeared on the air and trapped the bird along with Alex. Alex activated his Spirit Eyes. Now there is no nuisance inside the black sphere. Alex can focus on the bird while the bird can't see him.

This is the only effective move now that he is in the air. If he did this in the forest, All he get was bumping to trees or stumble on the ground. In the sky, he can freely move around without caring about all of that. There is no obstacle in the sky, after all.

Alex can see a big lump of energy stop on its track before suddenly flew toward him. Because of his Spirit Eyes, he can see clearly its movement. He moves on top of it, and

"Sixth Strike!" Even though he can see a big lump of energy. It was only vaguely shaped like a bird. He wasn't sure where he struck just now. Because of the confusion, this time, Alex's attack manages to pierce through its defense.a

"Scree!" The bird screams in pain as the bird struggles to break free from Alex.

Alex only jumps a bit and send a sword wave right at the same spot.

"Fifteenth Slash!"

"Scree!" The sword wave hit the target. The wound gets deeper and makes the bird scream in pain before suddenly descend to the ground.

Alex didn't know what happen, he can only see the energy suddenly fall down. The moment it touched the edge of 'Dark Curtain'. The Dark Curtain becomes undone, and Alex finally see the bird fall to the ground lifelessly.

The last scream is its final struggle telling that he is not willing to die like this. Alex sees the lifeless bird on the ground and sigh. "I still need Anna to help me in the fight. All in all, my capability alone is at 8-Star Martial Master. I can kill 9-Star Martial Master if I use my 'Full Throttle'. And that 10-Star Martial Master...I can only do it with Anna's Dark Curtain, which very useful because I have Spirit Eyes Technique. Without Anna's Dark Curtain' I doubt I can fight 10-Star Martial Master even if Anna helps me in close combat."

He descends to the ground, "Anna, how are you?"

"I'm fine Young Master. I can't fight anymore, and I can only raise one more dark curtain. The moment it broke, I am useless."

Alex pondered a bit, "Should we give up or challenge the 10-Star Master Stage wolf?"

"I think we should challenge it, Young Master. I mean, it's not like we will die for real if we were killed here. Also, we might able to kill it. If we were able to kill it, we might advance to the last wave...but I think we should give up the last wave. We would be swarmed by 10-Star Master Stage Monster."

"Yes, Indeed" Alex nodded. Each wave, the monster would be stronger and stronger. The previous wave was two 9-Star Master Stage with few 7-Star and 8-Star Master Stage Monsters.

In this wave alone, Alex and Anna need to fight two 10-Star Master Stage Monster along a few other 8-Star and 9-Star Master Stage Monsters. Alex and Anna decided to kill them first to avoid their interference. But the result is Anna lost most of her Spiritual Energy.

With that, they can possibly speculate what the next wave is, It would be many 9-Star and 10-Star Master Stage monsters. They don't know if a Grandmaster Stage monster will appear or not. But at the very least, they will be swarmed by those 9-Star and 10-Star Master Stage monsters. It is better to give up.

"Alright. We are going with your plan. I don't think I can hold much longer than this. The moment we encounter the wolf, you will raise the Dark Curtain."

"Understood"

Alex and Anna wander around the wood. After a few minutes, they finally heard the wolf's voice, but it comes from their back.

"Aoo!"

They immediately turned back and saw the wolf twenty meters behind them, Alex said urgently. "Anna, Dark Curtain!"

"Dark Curtain" Anna without further ado raise her Dark Curtain. And as usual, Alex activates his Spirit Eyes.

The wolf charged toward him. He thought about dealing with it as usual. Unfortunately, Alex made a single miscalculation. The wolf's ears and nose are sharp.

When Alex move, Its ears picked a sudden movement of him. The wolf suddenly turned to another direction. The wolf used his head to headbutt Alex.

'He can see me? No, he should be unable to see me. Then ears? Did he pick a sound when I move just now?' Alex thinks at breakneck speed as he used his sword to block the wolf's head. "Fifteenth Slash"

He hasn't recharged the Sixth Strike, thus left him with his Sanguin Sword Art. As for his 'Desolation' or 'Splitting Sword', it is too weak to counter this attack. His 'Sanguin Sword Art managed to pierce the wolf's head, albeit too shallow. The wolf's momentum blow him away.

"Boom!" He crashed to a big tree, not like he can see it though..

"Young Master!" Anna suddenly senses something wrong. Usually, Alex won't make a big sound and silently kill the monster inside this Dark Curtain. But now, it was clearly something crashing. The possible reason is her Young Master. But because of her scream. The wolf picks her sound on his ears.

It didn't charge at Alex. Instead, it made its way toward Anna. Alex can't react because of the attack just now. And suddenly, the Dark Curtain was undone, and the light came back to the forest. Anna was nowhere to be seen. There is only one conclusion as to why Anna suddenly disappeared, and her Dark Curtain was undone. The wolf killed Anna.

Without any time to waste. The wolf suddenly focused its eyes toward Alex and made its way toward Alex. Alex made a bitter smile, "It's really frustrating to lose."

The wolf bares its fang to Alex.

"Full Throttle"

"Sanguin Sword Art. Fifteenth Slash!"

Alex still struggled. Unfortunately, even with 'Full Throttle', his power is still not at the level of the wolf yet. The wolf managed to breakthrough, and bite Alex's abdomen. Alex will die sooner or later with this bite.

"Argh!" Alex screams in pain. Although he used to the pain when refining his body. It still hurt to get bitten like this. Alex finally felt what death feel like. It's painful. His consciousness started to fade.

Unbeknownst to him, Don't know if it his mettle or his instinct. Suddenly, he raised his sword in his half-dead state. He thrust the sword to the wolf's head. Unlike a normal Sword Intent, There is a trace of Spear Intent in his Sword Intent. Unfortunately, he is unconscious about it and didn't remember doing something like this. And just like that, the wolf also dies along with him.

[EXP+ 3400]

[Gacha Ticket x1]

His consciousness came back to his body. He searched his surroundings and found Anna and Sherry beside him. They have been waiting for him quite a while, it seems.

"I'm back."

"Welcome Back, Young Master"

"Wuu!"

Alex sees around him and notices that Spiritual Energy suddenly becomes denser. All of the monsters he killed in the forest become the nutrient in this room. It can boost his cultivation. Alex sits down and starts absorbing energy. It seems Sherry can absorb it too. So both of them absorb the dense Spiritual Energy while Anna guards them.

...

Unknown to him, He makes a big uproar on the outside. There is a sudden change in the Outer Disciple Ranking. The Stele suddenly glows with a name.

'9th Alexander Sirius - 512 Points'

It suddenly changes the ranking from the original Antonio in ninth and Julius in Tenth. Julius dropped from the top ten, and Antonio dropped to tenth. When Alex's name suddenly appears in ninth. It becomes an uproar.

"What?"

"There is someone who suddenly appears in the ninth position."

"Who is he?"

"Who is his mentor?"

"From where he come from?"

Many questions present at the moment. Alex's identity is unknown to others since he is only a new outer disciple.

Evelyn and Lena looked at each other in disbelief. Alex is only a 4-Star Martial Master. But, not only can he surpass Lena, but he also makes something impossible to happen. He is in the ninth rank.

"Elder Sister. Is he...really big brother Alex?" Evelyn asked.

"How can I know." Of course, how can she believe someone who has lower cultivation than her suddenly become one of the top ten of Outer Disciple? Suddenly a flash of memory appeared in her mind. That is the memory when her brother, the third prince, asked her to have a good relationship with Alex. 'Is this why big brother wanted us to make a good relationship with him?'

(AN: No, girl. It because the Third Elder's whispered a devil temptation to him)

After around an hour, trying to get Alex's information. They found out they didn't know anything about this 'Alex'. And there is one conclusion that comes up.

'A new disciple.'

After they found out Alex's is a new disciple this year. The crowd becomes frenzied.

"Is he really a new disciple?"

"To be a ninth rank. This is impossible for a new disciple!"

"The top 100 is dominated by 9-Star Martial Master or above, especially in the top ten. All of them are 10-Star Martial Master. Suddenly, a new disciple got into their rank. This..."

"Is he cheating?"

"Maybe"

"There is no way for a new disciple to do that."

When something unbelievable happened, most people tend to make a suggestion that can make their hearts feel better. Even if they deceive themself or blame the other party for unreasonable reason, either consciously or unconsciously.

The uproar continued for a few hours, Alex currently enjoying his meal inside the room. The uproar didn't stop around the Battle Tower alone. Many who watch him inform their influence about this news. Including...

"Senior Sister!"

The blonde girl is currently changing her clothes since she and her junior sister will go around the sect. But suddenly, her junior sister comes back in a rush.

"What happen Junior Sister, What can make you rushing like that?"

"I found him, I found Alexander Sirius. He is in the sect, and he...he made an uproar in the battle tower!"

"Oh, what has he done?" It suddenly piqued her interest. What kind of thing can a new disciple make an uproar in the battle tower?

"His...his name suddenly appeared in the Outer Disciple Ranking."

"Isn't that pretty normal." Said the blonde casually.

"But, his name appeared in the top ten of Outer Ranking. Specifically, he is in the ninth spot."

"What?" Even she would be shocked by that information. Alexander is only a new disciple. Also, if he has a high cultivation base, then how high is it? It won't be higher than 7-Star. And you are saying he can defeat many experts of 10-Star Martial Masters?

"We will need to cancel our plan. I will change first, and then we will go to the battle tower."

"Understood"
