The Human Giant

Chapter 254 254: First Opponent

?

Now that we were an immortal who had shown up and even brought along some backup, the students from the Immortal Palace Sect had high expectations. While at the same time, a deep frown appeared on the faces of the students of the Immortal Shadow Sect as they secretly cursed themselves for having bad luck.

"Who wants to go down first?" Now that he had made his appearance known, Immortal Patty immediately made it clear that he wouldn't gain anyone's ire by picking anyone.

"Sir, may I ask what are the benefits for these sect points that you mentioned?" Seeing that they were going to have to fight anyways, Yoze decided to ask the question he had been wondering the whole time.

It wasn't just him who had this question, as it was obvious to everyone that Immortal Patty placed great importance on these sect points. He cared about them so much that he was willing to put his reputation on the line to get just a few of them.

So their evaluation of these points was quite high since even someone who could live forever and so powerful valued them. So they couldn't help but wonder what these sect points could be used for that even an immortal was interested in them.

"Sect Points are the universal currency in any Immortal Sect, and these could be used to buy nearly everything. Whether you want to buy spells, treasures, bring in servants from the outside world, or obtain additional crystals for your immortal cultivation, you can buy them with Sect Points."

"Of course, since almost everything can only be obtained with Sect Points, they are hard to get and easy to spend. So it doesn't hurt anyone from putting in some additional effort into getting these points." Immortal Patty explained to everyone patiently.

"Bring in servants from the outside world inside the Immortal Sect!" The moment Yoze heard those words uttered from Immortal Patty's mouth, he made up his mind to get as many points as he possibly could.

As everyone else was busy digesting the information and calculating whether it was better for them to step in now or bid their time, Yoze had jumped off Immortal Patty's sword. Seeing him leave without hesitation, Leo's, Tamgo's, the two twin brothers, and Alosa's eyes opened wide in shock.

They had secretly been making plans and calculating which one of them would step forward first, yet none of them had assumed that Yoze would take the first step. While they knew he had the most talent of the six of them and even had a strong body, they knew he was still the weakest of them in terms of immortal cultivation.

He even said himself that he had only recently completed the Nerve Accumulation realm and was about to begin the Nerve Crystallization realm. That meant that he was at least three realms behind any of them and by far the weakest.

Though he had trained in martial arts and had a powerful body that couldn't make up for the lack of spells and hardly any ability to quickly cast extremely powerful spells, so many of them had assumed that he would have decided that it would be better to wait on the sidelines to observe and find a better opponent.

"Well, at least they will have a lower expectation of us when we enter. So we might be able to get an early advantage if we play our hands right." The twin brother wearing the hat with a green ribbon rubbed his chin with intrigue as he watched Yoze's heavy body fall to the platform like an asteroid.

While secretly wondering to himself whether the platform would be strong enough to endure a thousand-pound object crashing on it from dozens of feet in the air. It wasn't just him as everyone watched the mini giant of a man flying down from the sky.

"Boom!"

It only took a few seconds for Yoze to land on the black platform with both of his feet firmly touching the ground. Even though he had tried his best to distribute most of his weight as a precaution to not crack the obsidian platform, the moment Yoze landed, a loud sound resembling a boulder slamming into the ground echoed through the stage.

"..."

Silence quickly took over the audience as everyone felt a heavy gust of wind slam into their faces as Yoze landed. They all looked at each other with confusion as they couldn't understand why a martial artist was standing in the ring.

There was no way an immortal cultivator could achieve such a large and muscular body unless they heavily modified their body. But the amount of crystal energy that would be required to create such a body would heavily slow down anyone's progress in immortal cultivation.

In other words, it simply wasn't worth all the effort to go so far into creating a physical body that could still be turned into ash from a single spell. So they felt that it was odd to see someone like Yoze who cared to modify his body to such an extent, but seeing that he had dropped from the sword of an Immortal, they felt he must be quite powerful.

"Good, the Immortal Palace Sect has brought a new fighter to the ring! Immortal Shadow Sect, please bring up your fighter!" After being briefly shocked, the announcer of the battles quickly regained his composure and commanded the Immortal Shadow Sect to send in a fighter.

"I'll go up," After a brief second of silence from the Immortal Shadow Sect's side, a calm and lazy voice came out of the crowd as a tall slim man stepped out.

He had long black hair that reached his shoulders, a thin mustache, and wore a small grin on his face as he stepped up into the ring with swagger in his steps. As he walked on stage, his black trenchcoat fluttered slightly in the wind, surrounding him in a mysterious atmosphere.
