Chapter 1812
The night passed silently.
The next day.
It was the day of the battle between Sky and Omniscient Deity, two ninth-rank martial artists. Since many had never seen nor heard about the true strength of a ninth-rank martial artist, about a thousand people came to watch the show.
As the sun rose above the horizon, Sky appeared. Standing at the peak of Mount Kirkton, he was dressed in a leisure suit, and his expression was calm and composed.
Scanning his surroundings, a smile crept up on his face. No one knew who his master was. The reason he chose to challenge the Omniscient Deity and not the Prince of Orchid Mountain was that he planned to proclaim to the world his discipleship to Omniscient Deity. That way, his fame and prestige would be drastically boosted and spread far and wide across the world. By then, many powerful martial artists would seek to join him and the nation of Tacriyrus.
“Do you guys think that Sky can defeat the Omniscient Deity?”
“No way! Rumors say that the Omniscient Deity is an immortal who has lived for two millenniums. Sky is at most two hundred years old. Their age difference is simply too great. The Omniscient Deity’s strength must have reached an unbelievable level. How would Sky stand a chance against him?”
“Exactly my thoughts! Where did Sky get his confidence from?”
“He immediately challenged a martial artist who reached the ninth rank two thousand years ago upon crossing into the ninth rank himself.”
“Sky will definitely lose.”
“The battle is not set in stone yet. Maybe he has an ace up his sleeves.”
Many conversed in whispers.
No one was optimistic about Sky’s odds. Few believed he would win the battle.
Sky had overheard some of the crowd’s comments. However, he was unbothered. This was precisely what he wanted. He wanted the crowd to underestimate him, only for him to emerge victorious. It would cause a greater shock.
Once he defeated Omniscient Deity, he would become the greatest in the world.
Time passed. Soon, it was noon.
However, the Omniscient Deity was still nowhere to be seen.
