Barren Arena
As far as eyes could see the ground was cracked,scorched,parched and,broken.Remains and aftermath of old battles could be clraly seen decorating the land.Several skeletal remains of otherwordly Beast several 100 Metres huge dotted the landscape giving the already dead land a gloomy and abysmal feeling.A chill wind blew in complete contrast to the dry pockmarked desert land.No one would expect anyone sane to come here .But something unexpected was going on.Several 1000 immortals on various flying teasures had gathered around.Silent whispers and low hushings could be heard among them.All of them were gazing at the two figures floating few hundered Metres away.
The older of the two figures was a masked man covered in a black robe who looked in his prime.His body was well muscled but sleak like a cat.Looking at him gave the feeling of staring at a poisonous snake.His green long hairs floated all around him like a halo giving him a domineering look.HW wore a viper mask which completely covered his face. two chilling green eyes were all that could be seen from the mask..In his hand was a 3 meter tall black spear with a long silver spear head.The black staff of the spear was filled with green runic designs which went until the spear head and stopped.the spear head was inscribed with several runic inscriptions which glowed with a ghastly pale green light.A poisonous and deathly aura was being radiated from this spear.Overall the old man looked like a viper who was preparing to strike at his prey.If one followed his gaze they would find him staring at a young man who barely looked 20.
The youth was wearing a white robe with golden embroidery. His face was neither handsome nor ugly but looking at him gave a feeling of peace.His body was sleak like a panther and his muscles although lean were filled with explosive force.His silver hair was tied in a shoulder length pony.A slight smile could be seen on his face.He was holding a white coloured thin long sword.The sword was etched with several runes which radiated with a slight golden sheen.the handle of the sword was of a dragon curled around the hilt with his moth opened.The blade of the sword was coming out of the dragons mouth while two wings formed the guard.
Few minutes passed and both stood staring at each other ,trying to intimidate the other opponent
.Suddenly the old man spoke"Oye! Brat! I am still giving you a chance.Give the position of War Head to me.We don't need to shed unnecessary blood over this matter.Anyway I will win this due,l so why are you wasting your life over it?You are still young, and have a bright future ahead.Calling you a genius will be no exaggeration, but you are still a million years early to fight with me.As your elder listen to me, and go back!"
The boy calmly replied"Are you done? If yes then can we start? I have quite a lot of work pending and you are wasting my time old man."
Loud exclamations could be heard from the audience along with several remarks prasing and criticising the young man's bold behaviour and arrogance.

The old man's eyes shone and he laughed."Impudent and arrogant. Good good...having confidence in yourself is good but boy this is over confidence and this will be your downfall.Let this elder teach you a lesson." Saying this the old man shot forward towards the young man.His spear pointing towards his prey he screamed with joy"Serpentine Viper First strike."A huge illusion of Divine Green Viper with his mouth open and fangs out could be seen behind the old man shooting towards the youth.The youth calmly readied his sword and slowly slashed downwards.Although a simple slash, several profound mysteries could be seen in this slash.A bright white light shot forward from the sword and the youth announced"Celestial Crescent".Both the spear and sword attack struck each other and a loud explosion followed.Both the old man and the youth were pushed several hundered meters away.Seeing this the old man laughed again and exclaimed"Good..very good .No wonder you became the war head at such age.Profound mysteries...complexity into simplicity...you understood it deeply...but sadly you will still die...SERPENTINE VIPER SECOND STRIKE....THIRD STRIKE...FINAL DEATH STRIKE".He stabbed the spear forward in the air,then brought it slashing downwards and finally again stabbed the air piercing it.The huge illusion of Viper again struck forward but this time it radiated a decisive aura of death.Seeing this the young man smiled and shouted slashing his sword several times in various angles "CELESTIAL STARFALL." And like several beautiful falling stars the sword ki struck the illusion ,breaking through it and shot towards the old man striking him cleanly on the chest.The old man spat blood and it could be clearly seen he was heavily injured.Giving him no chance to recover the youth shot towards him.The old man and the youth exchanged several hundered blows in few seconds.It could be clearly seen that the old man was in defensive while the youth was in over whelmingly offensive.It is a well known fact that continuous defence leads to lose.The old man tried to strike back but was denied each time by the youth continuous barrage of slashes and stabs.When suddenly the old man's defence slipped for a second.That short time was enough for the youth to enter and break his defence.The youth slashed again and this time the Strike struck true and chopped off the old man's left hand.A loud blood curdling scream could be heard from the old man as his left hand fell down.He had lost his hand.His loss and death was fixed.The old man knowing this madly laughed and threw his spear at the boy who had just shot away.The boy parried the spear and cleanly caught it.But the distraction was enough for the old man who using his true essence escaped through the air.A loudshout could be heard over the horizon as the old man called out"Boy I Sevinxus Barasus promise that I will kill you and shatter youl soul for today's humiliation!!"
