Apotheosis

"Zen, just throw in the towel!"

Master Wen and the other disciples were silently praying for Zen to cave in. At that very moment, they didn't care about winning in the competition, but Zen's life.

However, Zen didn't listen and kept on rushing towards the wind blades.

The irregular-shaped thick blades attacked Zen from all directions.

"Poop-poop…"

Then the blades finally hit and stabbed Zen's body, creating sickening sounds.

The robe that Zen was wearing was still new, but it was instantly cut into pieces when the blades fell on it.

He looked like a firecracker from an angle bursting in an instant as the tiny pieces of his clothes scattered in all directions.

"It's too late. I'm afraid that he's been cut into pieces," a disciple murmured as he watched the pieces of Zen's clothes fly around. But to his surprise, when the view started to be clear, he saw a naked body in the air.

It was a nearly perfect body–smooth skin with a healthy metallic shine, physically attractive, well-proportioned, and full of power. The body didn't have any visible physical damage.

But as they looked closely, they saw some tiny marks on his body left by the blades that hit him.

"I can't believe it! How can he survive the attack from the blades without any damage?" a disciple said with disbelief in his eyes.

He wasn't the only one who couldn't believe what he was seeing. All the other disciples were also shocked.

Even Kenneth who showed no care for anything suddenly stood up and stared at Zen's body.

The disciples from Lady Peak who were silently staring at the naked Zen suddenly moved their eyes to Zen's lower torso. Their faces suddenly turned red and they let out a scream. They had to turn their faces away to hide their blushing cheeks and covered their eyes with their hands even though they still couldn't help peeping at him.

But there was one female disciple who just kept staring at the naked Zen. She pursed her lips into a smile and her eyes were filled with excitement. She said, "Patrick, it seems that you have boasted. I am afraid that even your King Kong Cover cannot match with his flesh skin."

Patrick Pei cultivated himself according to Buddhist doctrine and the nature of his mind was his vital asset. His creed in life was "not to be pleased by external gains, and not saddened by personal losses". In the past, he could always maintain his inner peace and let his mind be calm and stable no matter what the circumstances. However, at this moment, the surprise in his eyes was hard to conceal. Hearing the words from Tracy Mo's mouth, he replied with self-mockery, "You're right. I guess I have underestimated him. This guy's body is far stronger than I have imagined, and I wonder how he did it."

The martial artists in Eastern Region commonly practiced their life vitality after they stepped into the level of nature creatures, suspending the pract

ch a heavy blow that Cecil's body spun as he was catapulted like a sandbag.

Finally, his body hit on the light curtain of enchanted barrier and slowly slid down.

Then he lost consciousness.

The referee saw what happened and hurriedly ran to the field. The chaos cyclone on the arena was soon suppressed down with just a wave of the referee's hand. Then he announced, "The winner of this match is Zen from Drizzle Peak."

After he was announced as the winner, Zen stepped out of the field.

When Master Wen saw Zen exit the field, he ran to him and handed him a robe. Zen quickly put it on.

"Oh, Zen, you are a marvel! You defeated Cecil! Good job!" said Master Wen. He could no longer contain his excitement.

Although Zen had also beaten some strong opponents previously, Cecil was different. Unlike Cecil, his previous opponents were not on the high ranks in the Cloud Sect list. Cecil was at the level of Illuminating Soul Realm, and he ranked eighty-third on the Cloud Sect chart.

And now that Zen had defeated Cecil, his rank on the top 100 disciples was set in stone.

Just as Yehudi prophesied, Zen might make a remarkable difference for Drizzle Peak.

What made it more amazing was that Zen was only seventeen years old and at grade-two nature level.

It was indeed a miracle that a person at grade-two nature level would be in the top 100 of the Cloud Sect chart. If Zen could break through nature level and reached Illuminating Soul Realm in the future, he could be in the top rank of the Cloud Sect list and might be the first place in the future All Peaks Competitions.

Master Wen thought it would not be a long way off. He believed that Zen could do it in the next All Peaks Competition.

But little did Master Wen know that Zen didn't want to wait for the next All Peaks Competition. He was aiming to take the first place in this year's competition with his current grade-two nature level!
