When Alex killed Abhinav, everyone was dumbfounded. They never thought to witness a scene where a Peak Origin Sea Stage martial warrior was instantly killed by a Peak Spirit Origin Stage martial warrior.
'What happened just now?'
'Could it be that Alex had concealed his cultivation base before? Could it be that his true cultivation base is the same as Antonio, at the Heavenly Completion Stage Level 1?'
Most of the people present thought like this and found this explanation more convincing compared to believing that Alex had killed Abhinav with his strength at the Peak Spirit Origin Stage. They simply didn't believe that Alex was fighting with a higher cultivation base.
After all, over the years, they had already formed a common sense. A person can fight against an opponent with a higher cultivation base and win even if the opponent is 2 or 3, or even 5 levels stronger.
But Alex has just defeated someone who was an entire realm stronger than him.
.....
On the flying ship, other than Sorya and Ashneer, the rest of the Deacon Elders had shocked expressions on their faces. As for Morcus, his expression was ugly. When he looked at Alex, his eyes were filled with hatred.
Suddenly, one of the Deacon Elders said, "I will accept this child and please, don't fight with me over him!"
When the others heard this, they immediately reacted.
"You? Based on what!"
"I don't want any of the others, I only want this child!"
"That won't do either. I've taken a liking to him too. If we cultivate him well, It's a matter of time before he'll become the core disciple of our sect."
"I say, everyone, I have my eyes on him a long time ago and have been observing him from the shadows all this time. Let him become my disciple." Sorya rolled his eyes and immediately retorted all the Chief Elders.
"Don't tell me I am not?" Ashneer sneered and opposed Sorya.
"Everyone, stop arguing. Alex, I will accept him." Elder Valerio was also not to be outdone. He said in a flat tone and participated in the fight to win Alex.
"Interesting. This child is really interesting."
Suddenly, a voice echoed that instantly caused everyone to shut their mouths. They couldn't help but look at the person who suddenly appeared with another flying ship. But compared to them, this new flying ship was more majestic and sublime.
"Welcome, Elder Valerio. We didn't know you were coming." Valerio immediately greeted the person who just appeared and said while showing enthusiasm.
Elder Valerio nodded his head, saying: "Sect was prepared to send an Inner Sect Elder, however, something happened in the academy that caused the Inner Elders to unable to come and oversee the disciple selection process this time around. Thus, the sect leader sent me here!"
Saying till here, Valerio stopped for a while and darted a gaze filled with profound light at Alex. Then he looked at the ten elders and said with a smile on his face: "Forget about that kid, I'll take him as my third disciple."
Everyone instantly shut their mouths, feeling somewhat unwilling. However, there was a huge gap between their cultivation base and Valerio's. They had no choice but to accept Valerio's offer.
"Elder Valerio, you see, I have been observing him since a few days ago. I don't think it's appropriate for you to do this, right?" Sorya mustered his courage and said with a hollow laugh. He didn't want to lose a genius like Alex and decided to fight for him. Well, the main reason he dared to do such a thing was that Elder Valerio was an easy-going person.
"How about this? Each one will get One Thousand High Grade Spirit Stones." Elder Valerio's tone was still calm as he offered a price to make everyone shut their mouth and not fight for Alex.
The price he offered was shocking. There were ten Deacon Elders and in total, Elder Valerio offered 10,000 High Grade Spirit Stones. This was an astronomical amount even for Deacon Elders like them.
"This, alright."
Sorya sighed and nodded. Although he had lost the chance to accept Alex, he had obtained one thousand High Grade Spirit Stones which is equivalent to a hundred thousand Mid Grade Spirit Stones. This could be considered a consolation prize.
"As expected of Elder Valerio. I'm impressed." Ashneer also smiled happily and said.
As for Morcus, his ugly expression disappeared. But he kept staring at Alex with an expressionless face. An undetectable trace of worry flashed across his eyes.
"Abhinav lost?"
Girlad stared blankly at Alex. Up until now, he still couldn't believe that Abhinav, who was stronger than him by more than a level, was actually defeated by a Peak Spirit Origin Stage martial warrior.
This meant that even if he attacked, he wouldn't be a match for Alex.
"Big brother, second brother, he is very strong." Mason's youngest brother, Melvin, said with a solemn expression.
Abhinav's death didn't make him happy. Instead, he felt worried. If the opponent is someone stronger than Antonio, he is afraid that all of them might be eliminated by Alex alone.
"Hey, Mason, who is he? Do you know him?" Loren walked to Mason's side, the frivolous expression on his face had disappeared as he asked with a solemn expression.
"I don't know him." Mason shook his head and said.
"I, I think I know him..."
At this moment, an Origin Sea Stage Level 3 martial warrior said with a pale face. He had been poisoned before, and even after recovering, his body still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Oh?" Mason and the others immediately looked at this Origin Sea Stage Level 3 martial warrior.
"You recognize him? What's his background?"
"That, I recognize the fatty beside him!" That martial warrior laughed dryly and replied, "He is the bastard son of the patriarch of the Fanous Family, Rishi Fanous."
"Fanous Family?"
Mason looked at Alex with a serious expression and said, "If he is from the Fanous Family, then he must be the strongest genius among them. But if that really is true, why haven't we ever heard of him?"
"I'm also curious, but we'll know in the future. Seeing that he has some grudges with Antonio, let's just watch the show." Loren smiled faintly and looked at Antonio with a gloating expression.
"You, very good!" Antonio looked at Alex coldly and clenched his fists. He had never been so angry before.
"Antonio, let's attack together and kill him!"
Antonio's subordinates were like tigers and wolves. They had killed too many people in the past few days, and their bodies were covered with thick killing intent. Even if Abhinav was killed by Alex, they weren't afraid at all.
"Don't move! Be careful or Alex will kill all of you with a single palm strike!" Seeing so many people about to take action, Rishi nervously shouted. He wanted to scare them off and put a lock on their rising momentum.
"You, a mere Origin Sea Stage Level 4 martial warrior, dare to threaten us. You are really arrogant!"
For a moment, Rishi didn't know what to say. But his mind quickly worked and in an instant, he knew what to reply to these bastards. He laughed and said. "You all are really fools. Think about it, Alex is merely a Peak Spirit Origin Sea Stage martial warrior and he was able to kill Abhinav instantly. I'm an Origin Sea Stage Level 4 martial warrior, aren't you all afraid of me?"
Rishi was simply using the power of a tiger to intimidate other cats and rats.
However, after hearing what he said, some people who didn't know the truth believed what he said. They thought that Rishi was just as abnormal as Alex, so they all revealed a look of fear on their faces.
"Today, it's either you die or I die!"
At this moment, Antonio stepped forward and coldly squeezed out these few words from his mouth. Then he turned to look at his followers and shouted, "Attack and kill him!"
As soon as his voice faded, Antonio erupted with a powerful aura as traces of poisonous black energy wrapped around him. He soon disappeared from where he stood and when he reappeared, he actually appeared in the air above Alex's head. Then he attacked with both of his palms. His palms were like the claws of an eagle as they clawed at the top of Alex's skull.
At the same time, the others had also arrived in front of him. A trace of fear appeared on Rishi's face, and he rolled on the ground in a flurry, dodging the attacks of the others.
In the eyes of the crowd, Alex was surrounded. The people surrounding him were like numerous ants, surrounding him in the middle. They couldn't even see Alex's figure for a moment.
But suddenly, grey beams of light shot out from small gaps between people surrounding Alex.
With a loud bang, these people were sent flying.
This group of Origin Sea Stage martial warriors was actually unable to withstand even a single strike from Alex!
