Several Kilometers away from Aditya's location. The army that was being led by Commander Scott and Vice-Commander Josh was still in the territory of the Echo Dominion Empire. They still hadn't crossed the borders. Aditya came forward to take out the enemy troops by surprise using Solar Cannons.
As the massive explosive lit the night sky, all the soldiers stopped moving and took a moment to stare at the sky. Watching the explosion, the soldiers were able to guess the scope of the explosion and gulped in fear. Their mouths were wide open in shock.
Scott and Josh also looked very impressed. They couldn't stop staring. Although Aditya had told them about the Solar Cannon, he never explained how powerful the cannon truly was.
"Let's hurry up." Seeing the explosion, Josh felt excited at the thought of seeing fighting the Echo Nexus Empire's troops.

Scene change_____
Meanwhile, Aditya put the Solar Cannon in his storage ring. As silence slowly returned, Aditya who was standing on top of a rocky mountain waited to face the enemy commander.
"Your attack wasn't strong enough." As he approached, the moonlight finally reflected on his body. Aditya was able to get a glimpse of his appearance and know how he looked.
The man was standing in the air with his hands folded on his chest.
"You're Arturo Travis."
"And you must be the Istarin emperor, Aditya." Both men have heard about each other. There were many myths and stories about them floating around the continent. It was difficult to gather information about them. What Arturo and Aditya have done to their enemies is very widely known.
The sole reason Aditya was personally getting involved in every battle was because of one man. Because of him, he didn't dare to recklessly invade the Echo Nexus Empire on his own.
He is someone who Aditya believed had the strength and power to defeat him. Aditya was cautious of this man. Even in the rank of Peak 5th-order, this guy was in a complete different league.
The power gap between a normal Peak 5th-order and someone like Arturo creates lots of confusion. Since cultivators in the 6 continents cannot go beyond the Peak 5th-order realm unless they go to the Main continent, over time, the power definition of the Peak 5th-order cultivators have been erased within the Peak 5th-order cultivation rank.
The amount of power a Peak 5th-order cultivator would possess depends on bloodline, class, and skills. There are also additional factors that can influence the power of the Peak 5th order. Such as the possession of rare artifacts or 5-star pills or 5-star armor or weapon. Adding all these factors together, the power of Peak 5th-order cultivators is very different from each other.
Peak 5th-order Mage cultivators like Alexander are good at using spells and magic-type attacks but their physical stats are not that great. Even someone like Greenwood who is a beginner 5th-order Dragon with a unique class would be able to beat Alexander in a battle.
And there are also a few individuals like Arturo who has been able to increase their powers to a higher level despite their cultivation being restricted to Peak 5th-order. Cultivators like Arturo and Aditya can easily defeat even beginner 6th-order cultivators because their of their massive stats. Whereas Aditya was able to use multiple skills simultaneously to defeat strong opponents, Arturo trained his body to reach the utter limit of the Peak 5th order, which is very different for everyone.
He had made his body so strong that he was able to take the full hit of the Solar Cannon without getting even a small burn mark on his body. He took the power of the full explosion and he looked completely fine.
'Arturo is the greatest and most powerful weapon that the Echo Nexus empire has under their possession. If I manage to kill him, it would be the same as the Echo Nexus Empire losing 50% of its total military power. Rumor has it that the Emperor is really fond of Arturo. He is very loyal to the Emperor and would do whatever the Emperor orders him to do. In the past, Lucas used Arturo's powers to remove all of his obstacles. No one was able to stop this monster.'
'His unbeaten record has given him the nickname of 'The Unbeaten Barbaric King'. The name was personally given by Lucas to Arturo when he helped Lucas capture the Obi Islands that were previously ruled by an outside Empire.' The Obi Islands were full of resources and a strategic location for the Echo Nexus empire. Without the Obi Islands under their control, the Echo Nexus Empire wouldn't have been able to grow this strong.
As the Echo Nexus Empire grew, Lucas made sure to eliminate all of his potential threats. He eliminated every Empire that could potentially threaten his rule. The Echo Dominion Empire survived because of its extraordinary strength. But unfortunately, with time, the Empire has been losing its former glory and strength. When Daxton took over, the Empire already had lost too much strength and their rival had grown too strong.
'Although it isn't confirmed rumors say that Arturo has a very rare mythical class. His mythical class makes him very strong with each passing battle.'

『Bloodline - Amethyst Berserker!』
『Bloodline - Amethyst Berserker!』

Arturo is 5 feet 5 inches tall which is very unusual for someone who is half Lion Beastmen and Half-Orc. Arturo's skin is dark green. He had a very muscular body. He had very short hair brown hair and the sides of his head were fully trimmed. His brown beard reached to his Adam's apple.
He had a long black spear on his right and a black sword on his left hand. A had a vertical scar on his left eye. His right pupil was deep Amethyst in color. There were numerous scars and wound marks on his arms. He wore a leather vest to protect his upper body and a simple black long pant. He did not wear any armor.
But he did wear gauntlets. Both gauntlets were black in color. Looking at those Gauntlets, Aditya can tell that they were fire-resistant. This means that normal fire-type attacks won't be able to harm him. He wore a purple pendant on his neck and had a bracelet on his right wrist. Aditya can tell both items were powerful 4-star artifacts.
"Let's fight." Arturo was very excited and pumped to fight powerful as Aditya. If all the rumors that he had heard about Aditya is true, if everything that he has been told about this man is true, then this man had the potential to kill him. And this itself made Arturo super excited.
The Unbeaten Barbaric King wanted to slay the Divine Dragon.
"Let's fight." Aditya replied as he activated all of his passive skills.
