Chapter 652 Causing Big Trouble
The confident words from the Demon were unheard of from the crowd. Everyone, including the citizens, knew the strength of the clan heads and those at the top of the pecking order.
The regular citizens always lived in fear that they might disrespect a simple Pagan warrior and lose their life over it. Many, if they knew a Clan head was coming to visit, would just stay indoors for fear of angering a certain individual.
Those that were Pagan warriors knew this even more so, and for those that were lower ranking, the Clan heads were treated like royalty. No one would dare go up against them.
Yet here was a single person who showed no fear at all, and he was starting to live up to his nickname, the Demon, but even more so, they supported what he said.
Cheers erupted in the stadium, shaking the whole place.
"Yeah, can you believe it, a clan head has to threaten a student of all things. That wasn't what this tournament was made for in the first place."
"And how could a person attack their own student? We all know why he didn't want to go up against him, maybe the Clan head is afraid that the Demon will beat him instead!"
"Ha, could you believe it, if a Clan head took part in this tournament and lost against a student."
The loud words reverberated, being echoed throughout the arena and filling the ears of Crine himself. His aura had moved away from Mada, dropping him to the floor.
Once again, everyone in the room felt like they could breathe, they could move freely and were able to stand again.
"You're being extremely stupid, kid, setting up a threat against someone like me," Crine said as he walked forward, while Raze still stood on the edge looking in.
"You should know, we don't take part in these things because there is a large difference between me and you. Right now, you might think that you are as high as the sky in the high, but you should know that Heaven exists above that sky."
"Heaven?" Raze asked. "For those that punish students like you, the only place you are deserving of is below my feet!"
Loud cheers erupted again as the mirrors displayed everything. For a moment, it didn't feel like they were watching a fight, but an intense drama that was going on in the Pagan warrior world.
"Those words, it looks like you want me to grant you your wish!" Crine said. He placed his foot onto the floor, and his Qi had swollen the ground. Even though it was solid, it rippled as if he had stepped into a puddle.
Before Raze could even reply, he had sensed someone was coming from his side, and he could see that Ricktor was running at him. Ricktor was running at him even before the warning that was given by Murkel.
Lifting up his sword, Raze deflected the attack but was pushed back against the ground. It was a powerful blow made by Ricktor, a serious one.
Now Raze looked to be on the back foot as he defended strike after strike, and eventually, the two of them met in the center; Raze was pushed to the middle.
'Good job, Ricktor,' Safa thought. 'I have no clue what would have happened if the two stayed, and the Light Faction didn't seem to be doing anything yet either. Right now, no one has a plan on how we should get out.'
Ricktor then jumped back and gave Raze some space; right after that, Raze charged in for the first time in the match. He then used the fourth descending step, kicking him forward, and swung his sword down.
It was filled with Qi; the sword lit up, but it wasn't any of the Dark Edge Formations that he knew; it was a simple swing, and that's when Ricktor had gone flying in the other direction.
He took a tumble; his body bounced off the ground a few times until he crashed into another part of the wall, only partly breaking it. He then fell to the floor and lay there, waiting until he heard the news.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems the Demon has done it again; give it up for Jake, as he is the winner!"
After seeing what Jake had done, the crowd was very pleased as they continued to cheer, and one corner even started to chant the word Demon.
As the winner was declared for the fight, Raze looked at his weapon. 'That attack I put a normal amount of Qi in it; he shouldn't have gone that far... I'm sure of it, this was an act by Ricktor.
'He kicked off the ground to make the attack seem more powerful and bounced himself, then crashed his body into the wall. To make it look believable. I thought there was a chance he wanted to do it at the beginning, but it seemed like he wanted a fight.'
Raze wasn't wrong in his thought as at the start Ricktor truly did want a full-on fight with Raze, but after seeing what he had done, how he was still able to help Mada even though he was on the field, and how he had the guts to threaten a Clan head to their face, he knew they needed him.
'We will need you in top strength, if you're going to try and get us out of here by taking them down,' Ricktor thought. 'So I will allow you to be in top strength.'
Getting up, both of them headed back to the viewing area, feeling unrestricted by the result of the event.
"We will now be moving onto the next fight, the shining star of the Light faction Hannah, against the backbone of the Dark Faction team, Safa!"
