While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System
Chapter 531 - Public RequestMemorising the route one had taken to the private training room and or finding one's way around the large Martial Arts Union Branch was easy for most cultivators, but outsiders always needed to be accompanied by one of their members.
And just Adam's luck, it was the same one who had tried to arrest him and was quite the annoying individual.
She didn't shut up even though he ignored her the entire time and just kept asking him questions.
"So are you and Su Lan a couple?"
"How did you get so strong?"
"How can you use so many weapons at such a high level?"
"Why are you ignoring me?"
"Why is your cultivation level so low?"
Adam had never felt so annoyed by someone in his life and she reminded him of Angela, the detective back at New York, someone that just couldn't mind their own business.
Reaching the arena, he could finally get away from the agitating escort he was designated and made his way onto the stage that he was meant to be fighting on next.
As a dark horse in the tournament that nobody had ever thought would make it to the semi-finals, a large amount of the attention was on him and Adam was backed by many to be the winner of the tournament.
Before it began, most believed that Gong Yunru would win, and even Su Lan was a dark horse in the audience's eyes, but now it was unclear who would win.
Or at least to them.
The Branch Master was almost completely sure that if Adam or Su Lan fought any of the other semi-finalists with their full power, they would come out on top.
However, the reason he was curious and interested to watch their matches, was because after his battle with Su Lan and supposedly healing her, he should definitively be fatigued and weakened.
So, despite how skilled he was, if he truly was merely an early Advanced Cultivator, then it should be very difficult to still win.
Unlike what he had expected, Adam won all of his battles with ease and very quickly.
His fatigue and weakness were clear, but he would just be on the aggressive from the start of the match and break down his final two opponents' defences before crushing them.
In his semi-final match, he fought against someone who fought with his bare fists and was definitely very skilled, but since Adam wanted to get the battle over with quickly, he stood no chance.
Still using the same output of power, and despite the pounding pain from his head, he still crushed his opponent and found all the holes in their fighting style.
Then, after landing dozens of attacks, he quickly found the opportunity to launch them off the stage with the Air Palm Strike, and their battle was over quickly.
The final battle lasted a bit longer and was one that Adam enjoyed slightly, with his opponent wielding daggers, the weapon that he would also usually use in most cases.
It was unbelievable just how skilled Adam was in the use of the daggers and it seemed as though he was just skilled in every method of combat, as he gained the upper hand from the start despite facing a finalist.
And from the start of the match, it was clear that he was going to win.
Pushed to the brink of desperation, his opponent who felt helpless under Adam's onslaught of precise and deadly dagger attacks used a forbidden technique to boost his power shortly.
The Branch Master noticed the sudden power boost, and it was clear as day that he was cheating, since such techniques were not allowed during their tournaments, but he turned a blind eye to it, wanting to see whether Adam could still come out on top.
And to his surprise, Adam still handled it well without suffering a single industry, breaking his opponent's legs before going to continue attacking them even further before the Branch Master stopped him.
Since his opponent sought to kill him and didn't hold back in the slightest, and even dared to cheat, there was no need for Adam to spare him, but he was stopped before he dealt him any more damage.
The crowds were singing their praises and although it was expected after watching him fight and beat Su Lan and Gong Yunru, it was still a shocking and unprecedented event.
'Liao Wei' had become famous after the tournament, but had also made quite a few enemies after Adam crushed quite a few individuals and stopped them from going further in the tournament.
And most that took part in the tournament had some sort of powerful background, which could cause the real Liao Wei some troubles in the future, but Adam was pretty sure he could handle it.
However, he wasn't satisfied with how the tournament ended, and although the national tournament was what he was interested to take part in; he didn't want the tournament to only have one winner.
"Branch Master, does there only have to be one cultivator that makes it to the national tournament?" asked Adam, after just winning the final.
He did so intentionally in front of the crowd, so that the Branch Master would feel more pressure to hear him out and accept the request that he was putting forward as the winner of the tournament.
"Not necessarily, but why do you ask?" he responded.
"I believe that there are two other participants that deserve to make it through to the national tournament," he revealed.
There were many that deserved to make it through, but the point of a tournament was for there to only be one winner, and luck was a big part of it.
If one faced tough opponents from the start, even if they were worthy of being first, it was very likely they would be weakened and unable to win.
But, would the Branch Master be willing to allow participants other than Adam to make it through to the nationals?
