Back in Martial Citadel down to his last day, true to Guso fashion, he had left things in chaos and disarray.

News emerged that the Inner Blade School and several other Organizations tried to assassinate Guso with Inner Energy Weapons while in the middle of a Ranker Duel.

But Guso had revealed his true ability and prowess.

As it turned out, other than being an excellent Martial Artist, Guso was an even more formidable Marksman and more than likely a Magon, and had come out on top, surviving the assassination and killing or inacapacitating his attackers.

All of this was confirmed by eyewitnesses of City guards on top of a watch tower, and Zigif the Inner Blade Master who was defeated.

News about Guso exploded throughout the City; what kind of a genius was this kid many wondered.

Soon more details about the battle emerged, Zigif was a D Rank Expert, so that meant Guso was a D Rank Expert as well now.

Not only that, the total of his enemies he defeated was 8, which he took down in a total of two moves.

The top Experts in the City were aghast, some of them weren’t even sure that they could accomplish such a feat themselves.

Suddenly many people within the City started to sweat nervously, how strong was the kid no one knew, and many weren’t trying to find out.

It had now become obvious to many that throughout the course of his numerous duels within the City, Guso had been handicapping himself for the sake of learning and perfecting his Martial Arts.

A deep appreciation and respect for the kids Martial Soul emerged from the depths of many Martial Experts within the City.

During a time when many derided and mocked Martial Arts as a proper Expert Path, this kid came and showed them the True Path a real Martial Artist should take.

One of humility, magnanimity, kindness, dedication, astuteness, and many more virtues of its like.

Yes a Martial Artists had to be virtuous and capable above all else, arrogance and stubbornness was not the True Path.

And so many of Guso’s critics had a change of heart, and with that change of heart the doors opened for Combined Fighting Method to take the City like a storm.

And with its arrival a new Age of Geniuses would emerge from the City.

***

Kemoro had been traveling on the road for many days.

He had set out on his journey to prove not only to his doubters, but to himself, the value of his methodology.

He wanted to make Martial Arts king among all the Human Arts.

And that included compared to the Inner Energy Arts as well.

That was the reason he had limited his knowledge and capabilities on Inner Martial Arts despite Yupows advice.

No he would enter the Ranks of Autemos and his like, and break through all the ceilings and barriers with his human state at its core.

Before him stood the greatest challenge he had faced so far.

An A level Ranker!

Kemoro still remained in the BB Rank, but now he was facing someone two whole ranks ahead of him.

His name was Jufinay, Emissary of the Mightos Empire, and seeing as they were in international grounds, there was no one there to help him.

“You little Warrior Rat dares to challenge me, the Emissary of a God! You will rue the day you ever made such a foolish decision.”

“I won't argue with you, I'm definitely a fool, but who is the greater fool, that is yet to be decided.”

Emissary Junifay didn’t want to waste one more word on the piece of trash that stood before him.

He was already deeply embarrassed and ashamed that he had to waste energy on such wastrels.

But the thing in front of him was the only obstacle between him and his prize, and he wasn’t going to let it get in the way and delay him for even one more second.

Immediately he called upon the Divine Energy that he had been blessed with, and gave the rat in front of him a glimpse of manifestation of what true power was.

A wave of golden arrows of different sizes swarmed towards Kemoro’s direction faster than the blink of an eye.

For an outside observer there seemed like there was no escape.

Soon the barrage of arrows blasted Kemoro’s location in a massive explosion, and devastated the surrounding area around where he once stood.

Junifay, confident that there was no way the imbecile could’ve survived, began to stride towards the direction of his prize.

But almost as soon as he began to walk, something caught his attention.

“Art of the Heavenly Hop! Heaven Descending Hop Destruction!”
