The God Virus

CULTIVATION EARTH

"Master, how does this dress look on me?" As she had just changed into a new cloth, spinning in front of Virus, the golden beauty asked, eager for his response.

Looking at her new red dress, Virus grinned as he voiced, "It looks magnificent on you, lil Belle..."

"Really?? Then I'll put this on tomorrow when we go to the contest!" With a happy smile plastered on her face, the golden beauty stated.

Knock~ Knock~

Suddenly, the door of their shared room was knocked which drew their attention, "Who is it?" The golden beauty inquired the other person's identity.

"It's me... Astes." A familiar voice was then heard.

Recognizing the voice, the golden beauty first looked at her master and seeing him nod, she walked before the door as she opened it.

When the door was opened, Virus could clearly see it was Astes as she said, "Hello, junior apprentice-brother, how have you been?"

Without standing up, Virus replied, "Hey apprentice-sister... great... what brings you here to my humble room?"

"I'm just here to check on you... oh and also, how did the Martial Contest go? Were you able to last past your first match? Hehe..." raising her hand in front of her mouth, Astes giggled like a fairy.

Fortunately or unfortunately, it was Virus and the golden beauty who were watching this scene, because if it was someone else seeing her beautiful smile, they would've been bewitched by that smile long ago.

As a smile crept its way on Virus' face, he replied, "Sorry to disappoint you apprentice-sister... I won them all."

"It's okay, I was expecting..." Astes was just about to say 'I was expecting you lose so I'm not disappointed' when she heard Virus' next words and was silenced entirely.

A while later, Astes asked in amazement, "You won all of your matches? You must be kidding right? How?"

"Well, if you wanna know, come watch my matches tomorrow... oh by the way, how was your contest?" Virus asked back.

"Hehe, does that even need asking, I won them all too... anyway, I'll have more time on my hands tomorrow, so I'll pay a visit if I can... you've really made me curious now." Astes voiced.

THE NEXT DAY

In a rather large Colosseum, many disciples were sitting on its seats as they watched the empty gigantic matching ground beneath.

There was also a special section where only elders and those with a higher authority were able to gain access to.

In that area too, there were currently some elders sitting, looking forward to today's match.

Then, as time passed, more and more elders and disciples continued to join their own area as the crowd increased.

Each elder had his own reasons and hidden motives to be present today as some of them came only to entertain themselves, while some others came to watch how their disciples were going to fight.

Among the elders, there was the two elders from the inferior and normal library, the elder who watched over Virus' stage yesterday, and even Virus' own master who had shockingly heard from Astes that his disciple had won all of his matches and thus came to watch how exactly he was winning.

Finally, at this moment, an elder appeared exactly in the middle of the Colosseum as he began to talk, and oddly, his voice could be easily heard by everyone in the Colosseum, "We shall begin the second day of the 'Martial Contest' immediately, there is already a list made for disciples to know who they will be fighting and the matches will continue according to that list."

"You two, come..." Looking at the dark tunnel in one side of the Colosseum, the elder uttered and promptly, two disciples who were going to have the first match entered as they began to fight soon afterward.

.

.

.

Currently, inside the tunnel in a hall, Virus and the golden beauty were looking at the list in front of them.

A while later, Virus opened his mouth, "So, the thirtieth match is going to be my first... and my first opponent is..."

Seeing the name, Virus was surprised a little because he recognized the name, it was... Deadter Ilon.

"He must've done something to go against you master, otherwise, the chances of such a coincidence happening are rather low." The golden beauty uttered with a frown seeing who Virus' opponent was.

"Yep, I think so too, but it doesn't matter... as he just delivered himself for humiliation, so I'll gladly take the offer." Speaking his mind, Virus grinned as he checked to see who was going to be his opponent afterward.

'Hmm, the winner of the match before me is going to face me, and that match is between Haden, who was surprisingly from the same stage as me, and his opponent... Bensli, who is a normal disciple...' Virus pondered as he stared at the list.

.

.

.

After that, one match after another was fought until finally, it was time for the sixth match which was between Hadelia and Palas.

.

.

.

Two disciples were currently standing as they stared at each other when finally one of them voiced, "Huh, I'm against an Inferior disciple... young girl, we both know how this situation will be progressing, so just make it easier for yourself and admit defeat."

Listening to Palas' Words though, Hadelia didn't respond in any way as she just stared at him coldly.

Then, the judge elder finally announced the beginning of the match.

The moment the match began, Palas seemed to disappear from his spot as he mumbled, "Okay... if this is what you want... 'Moving Like The Bat Night'".

And the next moment, he seemed to appear right behind Hadelia as he began to mutter again, "Qi Imaginary Hand Slash".

As he muttered that, his hand began to come closer and closer to Hadelia as it was about to hit her.

In the meantime, the other disciples began to murmur, "Palas is at the eighth level of the Qi Passage Opening Stage... so the result seems obvious, no?"

Another continued, "Yeah... and that girl has just recently joined the inferior section from the last Inferior Disciple Recruitment... even though she was the champion among the Cultivation batch... still, she's facing a Normal disciple here... so her defeat seems already set in stone before the match had even begun."

"Yep... I agree..."

.

.

.

The disciples and even some of the elders were talking among themselves about how she would lose as Palas' hand was getting closer and closer to Hadelia, when suddenly, her Qi seemed to increase as she disappeared from her spot just to appear right behind Palas with her short sword as she voiced, "Second form – Dance of the Sparrow".

Instantly, two big cuts were made on each side of Palas, which needed immediate tending or otherwise it could be dangerous.

Seeing this whole situation, everyone including most of the elders was amazed and even shocked because they clearly felt Hadelia's Qi abruptly increase and then from her body, they felt a Qi which would only exist on those who were at the ninth level of the Qi Passage Opening Stage.

"So she was hiding her true cultivation level through special means... " One of the elder's muttered in amazement.

"Already at the ninth level of the Qi Passage Opening Stage at that age... oh my... it seems a genius has just slipped right through my fingers." Another mumbled.
