Chapter 115: World Tournament Begins!!

As the train approached the airport, everyone began to wake up and get ready to get off the train.

As the Red Lightning Academy got off the train, they were hit by a lot of condescending looks, but they were used to it and could ignore it. However, Alvar was looking around in such a way that it was like peeling their skin off.

The trip to the World Tournament was important, and a lot had been done to make sure that the Hunters didn't realise anything. So when all the trains arrived at the airport, they organised a quick assembly.

The eyes of the people were mostly on the people with the Cloaks. None of the titled ones took off their cloaks. Because that would be considered cowardice and there were many people who did not want to be considered cowards just in a cloak.

Nobody knew who was what because the cloaks didn't have anything written on them like Legend or Emperor. Still, people made mental notes of people who were even senior.

Despite being noted, the Titled were very relaxed. They were confident in their power.

Like everyone else, Jack and Kevin took note of who was and who wasn't Titled. The reason they were taking notes was to escape when they saw or heard someone like that near them, but their writing was interrupted when Kai grabbed them.

As Kevin looked at Kai with anger, Kai shook his head from side to side and began to explain.

"There is no need to write. The Sky Lands may have an area of 1000 kilometres, but look around you.... Do you realise how many people are here? And do you think this is the only airport? No, it's not! From the time we enter the Skylands, we will meet someone every 20 minutes. Maybe they'll be friends, maybe they'll be enemies. But you won't have the opportunity to avoid them. Because they will see you and will try to fight you if they want to. And this number of people will continue for at least 15 days. You don't need to write in vain. Only your luck can save you in the Sky Land. "

Kai's speech wasn't just heard by Jack and Kevin. It was heard by a lot of people. The people here were skilled and there were many with good ears. Still, no-one tried to let on that they knew. Even so, Kai knew they had all heard.

Kai turned his gaze with a sudden feeling of being watched and met 3 pairs of eyes looking at him. Despite their oppressive aura, he was still smiling at them, but their gazes seemed threatening. They clearly didn't like the information Kai had just given to the people. Kai had expected them to pull their threatening auras, but none of them had tried to pull their auras. They were obviously trying to crush Kai with their auras.

Seeing this, Kevin and Jack backed off. Kai laughed most of the time. Sometimes there were times when he was bored and tired, and then he wouldn't laugh and would be cool. But there was one moment in particular. When Kai's smile faded, there was this terrifying aura.... That's why they had retreated.

Kai waited a little longer. Because he didn't want to cause trouble in a place like this. But these 3 people in front of him were really stubborn. Kai's smile was really starting to fade. People felt that they had to retreat for no reason.

The smile on Kai's face faded and was replaced by a cold threatening look. As an aura exploded among the people, they all retreated from the area. Kai's gaze became even more ferocious as the other 3 humans wrapped their auras with all their might. His aura was not looking at the development base. This aura was Kai's desire to kill, and Kai had a desire to kill that a human could not possess. Even the 3 Legends were stunned by this desire to kill. It was as if what stared back at them was not a human being. They were seeing a picture of the King of Dragons. But they didn't give up. All 3 of them had the title of Legend and they didn't want to believe that 3 people couldn't subdue 1 person.

Meanwhile, Kevin and Jack couldn't breathe in the face of Kai's desire to kill. They didn't know what Kai wanted to kill so badly, but it was obviously why he was always so lazy. To keep himself calm. But Jack and Kevin still couldn't believe the power of this aura. What was the source of this thing?

Surely the truth was different from what they thought. The only reason Kai had such a killer aura was because of his past lives. Otherwise, it would be absurd for a naive child like Kai to produce such a deadly aura.

When he unleashed his Killing Desire, Kai's full power was unleashed. And this power was equal to the power of the 3 Legends. Maybe a little more.

As Kai and the 3 Legends collided their auras, a violent aura destroyed the auras of the duo.

Kai didn't look who it was and turned around and left. Likewise, the 3 Legends also turned around and left, but both of them couldn't stop smiling for a short while after they turned around. The 3 Legends, 2 boys and 1 girl, seemed to be suitable opponents for Kai.

All the Academies were on board and the journey began. Since the 2nd step and above could not approach the island, a major who had taken half a step to the 2nd step would teleport everyone. But for this, he had to be close to the island. They had to get within 100 kilometres at least.

Kai was flying with a smile on his face and a little tiger on his lap. He had left a note on the little Tiger that if someone from the Red Lightning Academy found the little Tiger, he would give it the food it needed to eat. He had hung a necklace around the little Tiger's neck, but the necklace was not normal. On the end of the necklace were the things Kai had bought for Little Tiger. He had already given the others from the Garden of Eden on the train. Kai had also put a plant in the ring that would last Little Tiger for a year. He also put a plant that was 100,000 years old. He locked the other parts of the ring with his energy. The stuff in there was too old for Little Tiger to eat. Little Tiger wouldn't be able to eat them until he at least crossed over to the Purple Lightning. If Kai and Little Tiger were separated for a long time, Little Tiger wouldn't starve.

As Little Tiger licked Kai's face, some people looked at him. They could see the cloak on Kai, but they couldn't understand why he was so good with a weapon. That's what people who didn't have a Magical Pet thought.

Kai put Little Tiger on the seat next to him and started to calm down. Now everyone was dispersed. They had put everyone on other aeroplanes and no one knew what was going to happen. They were excited but they didn't show it. Most people had their eyes closed like Kai had done. Some people were sharpening their weapons. Other people were watching their surroundings and memorising people. Everyone was doing something, but it was only to hide their excitement.

When the Sky Land appeared, everyone stood up straight and calmed themselves down. When the island appeared, they would teleport. That's why most people had their weapons out. Because as soon as people landed on the island, the war would start. They wouldn't have a second to wait.

When Kai felt his body fade, he turned his head to the little tiger. The little tiger didn't understand anything. He turned his eyes to Kai. Looking at Kai with pure eyes, Kai regretted for a moment that he had brought him here. It felt really bad for this tiger cub to be in such a wild environment, but Kai knew he couldn't always be like this. His true nature needed to be revealed. Only then could he show the power of the Winged Tiger Blood.

As his body turned to dust, he put his hand on Little Tiger's head and stroked it one last time. The last thing he saw was the sweet smile on Little Tiger's face.

***

When Kai opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the sword coming towards his face. His hand reflexively moved and punched the surface of the sword coming at his face.

As the sword shattered into pieces, the girl holding the sword was dumbfounded. Before she realised anything, she saw Kai's cloak. As her eyes widened in fear, Kai's hand grabbed her by the throat and tore her to pieces.

She fell to the ground and died with her eyes open as she struggled to hold her throat with her hands. Seconds later her body disappeared without a trace.

Kai looked around and realised he was in a forest. He was surrounded by trees and they were all over 4 metres tall.

Soon there was the sound of explosions all around. Smoke was rising into the sky and people were being blown up. Kai's gaze turned ugly as the strong crushed the weak. He did not want to tire himself at this time when people would dwindle. So he was going to hide, but there was too much noise. Kai pulled out Sirius and stabbed him into the ground. Sirius, who emitted no aura at all, suddenly emitted a terrifying aura. At the same time, Kai's eyes flashed with the power of 6 Lightning Bolts.

"Curse of the Eternal Thorns!"

Before Kai could say anything, a 10-layered sphere of earth surrounded him. Then the sounds of screams rose into the sky.

When the Earth Sphere disappeared, Kai looked at the horror of the Curse of Endless Thorns. On all 4 sides, countless earthen pillars 15 metres high had risen. Each pillar was sharp like a thorn and held a human at its tip. Countless people who had died because of the earthen thorns in their stomachs were now cursing Kai.

Kai had created this technique just like the Heavenly Wind Cut and the Heavenly Flame Sea. While they were connected to the elements of air and fire, the Curse of Eternal Thorns was connected to the element of earth, and unlike the others, it had traces of defence in it.

Kai thrust his sword into the earth again and closed his eyes. Step by step he became one with the earth and felt it. When he felt 1 kilometre around him, he could confirm that no one had survived. He breathed a sigh of relief and drove his sword deeper. Sitting cross-legged, the earth began to tremble slightly. The branches of the trees were moving as small stones bounced on the ground. At that moment the earth slowly began to absorb Kai.

Within 10 minutes Kai was completely invisible in the ground. He was buried in the earth and could not be seen from the outside. A few minutes later a group of people passed over the land, each one at the peak of the Blue Lightning, but Kai did not play with them. He was absorbing the minerals of the Earth at the time. The Immortal Dragon's Transformation Skill had many benefits and allowed him to absorb anything made of energy. Of course, Kai could no longer release this absorbed energy into the path of the body and heart. He couldn't go any further that way. He was now strengthening the mind path. It wouldn't do him much good right now, but once he found his mind in the outside world, he would be able to freely use the Mind Mode created by one of his past lives.

At that time, many fights had begun and ended. Some fights were just beginning.

An indifferent youth with slightly slanted eyes, whose hair was slowly starting to grow, was looking at the corpses around him. His white cloak had taken his formerly incredibly arrogant behaviour to the next level.

"Attacking the High Monk, huh! You must have a death wish! You're lucky I'm merciful, or I would have inflicted eternal wrath on you."

Although Alvar said so, some of the corpses on the ground had no fingers, some had no arms, some had no legs and some had no arms. If this was the state of mercy, no one would want to see the state of no mercy.

At that time, the sound of light footsteps on the ground reached Alvar's ear.

"Who is there?" he called to the void. At that time, a white-haired young man in his 20s came out of the trees. He was wearing a cloak just like Alvar.

"I am the one who will kill you."

As Michael explained, there were cities in the Sky Lands and castles within the cities. Of course, because the cities were so large, a lot of people teleported into the cities. Every academy was trying to take the cities. And because of this, there was a lot of bloodshed. On the west side of the island, there was a surplus of students from the Red Lightning Academy.

"Everyone attack!! Take the city!!!"

As Hiran shouted, many people listened to him and began to fight. Among the warriors were some well-known names. Such as Urasi, one of the strongest of the 3rd Class, or Melony from the house of the 3 Legendary Beasts. Clara was also among the fighters. She was slicing anyone in front of her with her dagger. She left the difficulties to Urasi and others like him.

Melony, too, had harnessed the power of his mana weapon. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, he reached into every mind he could and turned them into his soldiers. He would injure the bodies of some powerful figures and take over their minds.

In the southern part of the island, a giant-sized man had survived the forest of corpses around him, but he was breathing deeply. He held his giant blue-tasselled axe with one hand, proving his strength. However, the deep sword wound on his chest showed that he had faced a formidable enemy here.

Yet this deep wound could not make him drop a single tear. His size did not belong to a 15-year-old, and with Zaheer's advice, his attempt to become a more mature man was continuing successfully.

"You are truly great, Kronos, you have taken down perhaps as many men as there are cities. Although their strength was inferior to yours, their superiority in numbers could not be underestimated. Yet you died the moment you met me." said an elegant man from the forest. He was holding a coffee cup that no one knew where he got it from and no one would ever know. Even from his gaze and elegance, it was clear where he came from. There were only two countries from which a warrior man could be so elegant, but Kronos did not care where he came from. Gritting his teeth and spitting out a handful of blood, he stuck his giant axe into the earth and shouted excitedly.

"COME ON!!!"
