Chapter 141 End Of The Outer Court Rankings! A Determined Fatty!



================¶¶================

"What if I can..."

Arthur gave a proposal and the sect leader revealed a doubtful expression.

"Is that even possible?"

"For others no. But for me? Yes, it is." Arthur smiled confidently.

What he wanted to pull off would be impossible for others but it would be a piece of cake for him.

"Alright, I agree."

Arthur's smile became a grin and after discussing a bit more about the matter, the sect leader left but not before giving Arthur a spatial ring.

Soon, Arthur was left alone in his new residence.

'With the backing of the sect leader, there will be no more annoying opposition. This should also give me some leeway on certain matters, also...'

Arthur took a glance at the contents of the ring and threw it into the world within Serene Palace Painting with a thought.

"I'll go through it later. There should be something good I can use on Balor. Now, I'll wait for the news."

Arthur turned and faced the direction of the outer sect with a calm gaze.

His powerful soul power spread out from there until it reached the outer court and went beyond.

Soon it arrived at the sword tower until he felt a restriction when he tried to penetrate through the tower's defenses.

"Who?!" A dignified voice asked in a threatening manner causing Arthur to draw back his soul power.

'That glance was enough to reveal a lot of things.'

Due to the increase in his cultivation, he was able to access more of his soul's cultivation prowess.

And due to how higher ranked his soul was compared to the others, they are not able to sense his soul force. Something he discovered lately.

The only reason why the sword tower sensed him was due to Arthur's inability to skillfully use his soul power as one who will have that level of soul cultivation could, and also because of the runic array defenses set up around the tower.

Those were runes from the upper realm and the current Arthur is unable to bypass it.

"For now though..." Arthur muttered.

"Nevertheless, I didn't expect Luke to be more capable than I expected," he smiled as he recalled the scene he 'saw' at the Outer Court Ranking Battles.

"Just perfect."

'Now the next thing to do is...'

"Cora..."

°°°°°°°°°°

Inner Court Battle Arena.

An elder of the sect levitated on the platform with a list in his hands as he called out the new rankings of the inner court.

"Now these are the new top 25 disciples!"

"Ranked 25th, Chandaq!"

"Ranked 24th, Trone!"

"Ranked..."

He called the names calmly one by one until he called a name that was previously unfamiliar in the Inner Court.

"Ranked 19th, Mark!"

Cheers rang out when the name was called as this was one of the best dark horses in the history of the inner court rankings.

Mark who had only been in the Inner Sect for just three months was able to overpower a lot of his predecessors in a place with stronger and more experienced disciples.

He was able to bulldoze his way into the top 25 strongest inner court disciples and it is believed that in the next Bi-annual Inner Court Ranking Battles he would only rank higher.

Mark stood on the platform with a calm expression and did not let the praises of the crowd get to his head, because he believes, or rather, he knows that there is someone stronger than him and one who is younger.

Mark thought of Invincible at this time, 'If it was him, he would be able to get into the top ten at least, and who knows, he might even pull up a miracle and take first place.'

But little did Mark know that his thoughts were not too far from the truth.

Meanwhile...

A similar scene was taking place in the Outer Court Battle Arena as they announced the new top ten Outer Court Disciples.

"Ranked tenth, Gakner!"

The tenth-ranked disciple was still Gakner from the last outer court ranking battles.

With his Mutated Blue Grass Snake Martial Spirit and still obscure ability, he maintained his rank.

But the rest of the top ten rankers sent a wave of great shock to everyone seated in the arena.

This was because the rest nine names that were called were all members of the Invincible Sword Faction.

And if that wasn't enough they were all previously unremarkable disciples of the Outer Court.

And the top three were those that they saw as the face of the Invincible Sword Faction asides from Arthur.

"Ranked Third, Sun Wukong!"

"Ranked Second, Balor!"

"and finally..."

"Ranked First..."

"...Luke Nightwalker!"

Luke stood in front of the others with a serious gaze. This achievement was nothing but a mere dream to the previous him.

But ever since he met Arthur and took him as his master, his life had changed. And one could say that his fate was changed by following Arthur.

And for the first time in a very long time, he exposed his full name to the world.

"What, Nightwalker?!"

"So he is a member of that Clan."

"Yeah, who would think that the last survivor of that clan would be a member of our sect."

"But won't that kingdom come for him?"

"Hmm, that's a good question, but I don't think so."

"Why?"

"Come on, his status is way different from before. He now has the backing of the Heavenly Sword Sect and now that he is labeled as one of the sect's geniuses he will be even more protected."

"That's true...now I wished I had joined the Invincible Sword Faction back then."

"Yeah, me too."

"Hey, you guys. Don't go joinng them now," a disciple scoffed.

"Young Master Crixus is here now, and I don't think that their faction will last long."

The others went silent and buried their thoughts of joining the Invincible Sword Faction for now and decided to watch from the sidelines.

But there was a disciple who looked at Luke with a determined gaze.

'I will definitely join them this time.'

The one with such an intense gaze was a fatty who had been labeled as Invincible's biggest fan by himself.

His glare was so strong that Luke sensed it.

'Not this guy again...fine maybe I will approve him this time by talking to the Master.'
