308 Inner Disciple Tournament 13-Road to Quarterfinal

The wine was intense. As soon as they sipped it, the energy inside the wine immediately sparked and made them intoxicated. Even Song Yu and Charya, who were Martial Lords, tried their best to hold this energy.

\"Such an intense wine.\" Both of them said at the same time.

Alex also got such a reaction. His Pure Fire was forced out of the Phoenix Spirit Seed and revolved like crazy as they started refining the energy for him. He looked at Charya and the others with great difficulty as he also tried his best to fight this energy that was trying to intoxicate him.

Putri's expression was serious as she could not spare any energy aside from cultivating at this moment. As for Evelyn, she had become a hopeless case.

She came to Alex and tried hugging him. She said while sitting on his lap, \"Hehe… big brother Alex, this wine is marvelo-burp. You know what? I think you should treat women more nicel-burp. I am somewhat scared when you make me do this and that.

\"But, that might be your uniqueness. Uhh, I can't help you with the way I am. I thought about having my parents reward you, but with your progress, you don't need any-burp.\"

Alex tried to pat Evelyn's head and said, \"It is fine. You do not need to worry about it.\"

\"But…\" She looked at him with her drunk eyes.

\"As long as you keep getting stronger, I might need your help in the future. So, just refine the wine's energy first, and we will talk later.\"

\"Aye…\" She nodded earnestly. In fact, she did not realize what she just said. She tried to cultivate… Of course, on his lap.

Alex shook his head, he moved her out of his lap and tried to refine the wine's energy. Charya and Song Yu also started to cultivate. And that night, a huge amount of energy sparked in that place.

…

The next day, Anna came to this house. She was worried since Alex was never gone back, so she checked him inside this house.

Alex was cultivating with the others, and she saw a huge jug of war. With the smell alone, she could realize that this wine was the source of this problem.

She looked at Alex carefully as she was hesitating whether to wake him up or not. After all, he would need to participate in the tournament today if he wanted to help Putri with the curse.

But suddenly, his energy increased exponentially before suddenly exploding.

\"8-Star Martial Grandmaster!\"

Alex opened his eyes slowly and saw Anna's face right out the bat. He was startled and jumped backward.

\"Anna, is that you?\" He asked carefully.

\"Yes, it is me. This wine should be the reason why you did not come back yesterday.\" Anna said.

Alex did not know what to answer. He checked the other people, such as Charya, Song Yu, Putri, and Evelyn. All of them were still cultivating.

\"Let's go out first,\" Alex said while retrieving the wine.

Anna nodded and followed him outside.

\"I apologize for not being home yesterday since I promised you, I will go back.\"

\"It is fine. At least you will not cheat with some sl*t.\" She said with a smile.

\"Haha…\" Alex just brushed it off with a laugh. He then asked, \"How about the matter I asked you yesterday?\"

\"It is done. Njomo said both of them are going back to the Southern Kingdom today.\" Anna said.

Alex contemplated a little bit. If they were going back to the Southern Kingdom, Alex would need to prepare something first. He took out Ngina's and Nicole's card. He remembered that Ngina was investigating the royal family.

\"Ngina, there might be some drama in the royal family a few days later. Keep me informed.\"

\"Nicole will investigate the Makmur Family. There will also be drama over there. Be prepared.\"

\"Understood.\" Both of them said.

\"Alex,\" Anna called him with a worried expression.

Alex looked at her, confused.

\"You should not let others drink the wine again.\"

\"Why?\"

\"It will be bad for their path of cultivation. Although unlike raising Energy Pill that can only have once in a limit. There is also an unwritten rule for a wine.

\"Take the little girl for example, if she drinks this wine again, her body would not be able to take it anymore. Just look at the wine, it has many rank 6 medicinal ingredients inside. That is the reason why they became like this in the first place.

\"And even with your Pure Fire, you can only have two or three small cups. If not, you will ruin the foundation that you have been painstakingly cultivated.

\"If they want to drink this wine again. It will be best to do it next month. Until they refined and consolidated their energy.\"

\"…\" Alex was speechless. He never knew something like this. He thought whether he should deepen his understanding of medicinal ingredients.

\"Alright. I will be more careful from now on.\" Alex said and sighed.

\"Anyway. Back to the topic about those two bitch*s. That green-haired one aside, if that princess told the royal family about your wealth. They will start targeting you, Alex.\"

Alex remembered that she and the Kasmanan Family somehow knew about him receiving Zwaka's inheritance. A Martial Emperor's inheritance… It was bound to incite many greedy bastards. No matter how big he helped them, they might come and bite him.

When Anna told him about them going back to the Southern Kingdom, he only thought about the reaction of their family because of the beating. But with Mega's information about his wealth. It might certainly move the royal family. After all, considering the beating he had given to her, she might become crazy enough to tell the truth.

\"What do you think we should do?\" Alex asked.

\"Kill them? I do not think I can catch up with them. But Leoz and the others might be able to ambush them.\" Anna said.

\"Alright. Let's ask them for it. If the royal family somehow managed to know about it before Leoz and the others killed them. Maybe I should ask Jeanne to hold another season for them before killing them.\" Alex said.

\"That is a good idea,\" Anna said while giving Leoz's card that Alex entrusted to her. Alex shook his head, \"You told them. I almost forgot I need to fight today. See you later.\"

Alex then flew toward the arena alone.

\"Understood. Please have a nice day.\"

…

In the arena, the tournament had been started for quite a while. Fortunately, Alex's turn never came up. And as soon as he reached the stage, after another fight, Alex was finally called by the third elder.

\"Alexander Sirius versus Hannibal.\"

Alex came to the arena with his new 8-Star Martial Grandmaster cultivation. He looked at the muscular man who was holding a giant ax. He was constantly glaring at him.

*Cheers*

When he came to the stage, the disciples were cheering for him. They did not care whether Alex had offended the Southern Kingdom or not. They did not care whether Alex had talked big or not. Because they knew, Alex had that qualification.

Alex's fan base was increasing drastically because of his godlike performance yesterday. He did not care about the cheering very much as he kept hearing the usual thing like: \"I want your baby or something.\"

Alex only looked at the muscular guy who was his opponent for this battle and greeted him with a nod.

\"You are great. I might not be able to win at this match. But I request you to use your full strength in fighting me.\"

Alex narrowed his eyes. He said inwardly, 'Using my full power? Sword and Spear, or do you want me to include my Fire and Array too? It might be a bit overkill.'

Alex shook his head. \"It is better not.\"

\"You! Do you think I am not qualified to fight you in an equal ground? Even though my ranking in the battle tower is lower than Intan Wulan Makmur. But my strength is the same as her. You will not be able to fight me if you keep holding back.\"

\"I am not holding back. I will seriously fight you with my sword as usual since yesterday's fight is a bit special.\"

Unfortunately, Hannibal misunderstood him. He thought by using his sword, Alex would not be able to fight him. Yesterday's match made them a little bit obsessed with Alex's spear, forgetting his real power in Sword.

After all, his Spear Domain alone was only a twenty meters domain. In comparison, his Sword Domain was a twenty-five meters domain. Judging by the domain alone, they should know Alex was even more powerful in Sword.

\"You are going to regret it.\" Hannibal gritted his teeth.

\"Match Start!\" The third elder announced.

\"Prison Stomp.\" As soon as the match started, Hannibal immediately stomped the ground with his giant ax.

Suddenly the ground around Alex rose. It immediately locked him from all directions, and the only way to escape was by going upward.

But Alex knew it must be a trap. He activated his Spirit Eyes, and it was really a trap. He could see Hannibal jumped toward him. He looked at the wall and found out that they had been coated by his Axe Intent.

Alex should be able to destroy the wall. And if he did not jump upward, Hannibal would destroy the wall along with him.

Alex made a sly smile. He was planning to confront him head-on. He jumped to the air.

As soon as he came out of the wall, Hannibal immediately jumped toward him and swung his giant ax. Alex looked at it and smiled.

\"Sky Step. As well as, Fleeting Step.\" Alex first used his Sky Step so he could step in the air like he was stepping in the ground. Then he activated his Fleeting Step that was emphasized dodging with its unpredictable step.

The moment Hannibal swung his ax, Alex disappeared. And before he knew it, Hannibal felt a strong force from his back.

\"Boom!\"

He crashed into the ground.

After dodging his attack, Alex moved behind him and kicked him hard with his Immovable Step. But Alex did not stop there. He disappeared once again.

Hannibal raised his giant ax. And Alex suddenly appeared above him, swinging his sword.

Hannibal grinned as he thought he had read Alex's movement. But Alex only looked at him with a cool face.

\"Heavy Step.\"

As soon as he activated his Heavy Step, the weight on his blow increased several times.

\"Boom!\" Once again, Alex made a huge crater in the arena. Fortunately, it was not hard to fix by an Earth Element cultivator.

\"Pah!\" Hannibal spat blood after receiving Alex's heavy blow. He never thought Alex had this much strength in his body.

\"Argh!\" He used every ounce of his strength to push Alex away but to no avail.

\"Spiking Ground.\"

Alex suddenly saw the energy moved from Hannibal's body toward the ground. Alex quickly realized it was an attack. He deactivated his Heavy Step and jumped backward.

\"!!!\"

Hannibal was surprised that Alex already retreated. And by the way, he was retreating, he clearly knew what he wanted to do.

He was surprised as normally people would retreat after they saw it. Alex seemed to notice something that normal people could not. But he didn't think more about it as he used this chance to use his trump card.

\"Frenzied Berserker.\" His energy increased, and it seemed his strength also increased. He jumped toward him and swung that big ax.

\"Immovable Step.\" Alex received the blow with his sword and Immovable Step, and surprisingly, their power was equal.

Alex narrowed his eyes as he locked Hannibal with his Spirit Eyes. He forcefully used all of his Spiritual Energy at the same time, and it gave him a huge boost on his strength.

But it also came with a backlash. The energy that was supposed inside his body started leaking outside. And judging from the leaking, he could only maintain this state for another two minutes before exhausting his energy.

\"Die!\" Hannibal swung his giant ax again, which Alex received with his Immovable Step. And both powers immediately made a huge crater.

\"Boom!\"
