System: Replicating The Heavens - Chapter 302 Ch 302: Top Ten

The competition would end today, and the winner would be announced. There was no need for Alex to conceal his true strength today.

He would expose his true strength today and show everyone that he has the qualification to become the core disciple.

After the booing, there was another round of cheers, this one was not weaker than the booing. Sabine came out from behind Alex and was warmly welcomed.

Next to them were the rest dozen or so other people. Among them was actually Hassan, a sturdy young man, using his Iron Fist to struggle into the top 20. He was truly powerful.

“Very good.”

The Great Elder stood on top of the high platform and spoke again, “Seeing you all, I can see the future of the Fourth Mountain Peak. Our Fourth Mountain Peak will become much better because of you all. Fight, stimulate your potential, and let us old fellows see your true strength.”

The crowd burst into an uproar. Twenty young men were all excited, their eyes filled with fanaticism and fighting spirit.

“Alright, I see that all of you are ready. Let the battle begin.” The Great Elder said.

The arrangement for the battles had already been done yesterday. The one who would fight with Alex was called Ben Ereft.

Twenty people were separated on ten battle platforms, and the battles instantly began.

Outside the platforms, Serah had appeared again today, but for the first battle, she did not watch Sabine’s, but Alex’s instead.

“I wonder how his potential actually is. He hid his strength yesterday, but he must show his true strength fully and completely today if he wants to become the core disciple. He is really careful. But why?” Serah thought in her heart as a hint of curiosity appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Beside her, Elmer noticed every tiny change in Serah’s expression. He looked at Alex, a cold light flashing past his eyes.

At the same time, those who found Alex concealing his strength yesterday stared at him as well.

“Alex, you meet me, Ben, here. Your good luck also ends here.” Ben unsheathed his long knife, releasing a cold light, and smirked at Alex.

“Your strength is not bad, and you could have had the chance to enter the top ten. Unfortunately, you meet me.” Alex was not to be outdone. He also said calmly. Originally, he had no such qualm to talk nonsense, but he could not help but refute Ben.

“Nonsense, Alex, it is not too late for you to admit defeat, otherwise, you would be injured by my blade, don’t blame me for not reminding you.” Ben was furious. The long knife in his hands had already started to fight.

“Ben, teach that lucky fellow a good lesson.”

“That’s right. You must let that guy with God-damn luck know your strength.”

“Tell him that luck is luck while strength is strength.”

The disciples who were defeated by Alex “by chance” yesterday, started shouting from the outside today.

“Fight, you have one chance to attack me.” Alex remained calm and said indifferently as he looked at Ben.

“Humph. Then let me see if you have the chance to stop me from attacking.” Ben snorted. The light of the blade suddenly flashed, and the long knife slashed toward Alex. The moment the blade light flashed Ben had already slashed out more than ten times, forming a dense net made of knives. The knife net flashed towards Alex and was about to wrap him.

“You haven’t comprehended the true meaning of your combat skill; your blade light is full of flaws for me.” Looking at the crowd of knife nets, Alex shook his head with his eyes filled with disdain. His feet moved, and in an instant, he dodged the knife net’s densest attack, and at the same time, he clenched his fists tightly.

A violent punch penetrated through the dense knife net and directly punched on Ben’s chest.

“Bang!”

After a dull sound, Ben’s body flew backward and the long knife in his hands even slipped out of his hands in an instant.

One strike and Ben was defeated.

Surrounding them, there was initially some ridiculing laughter, but after Alex easily won, all the ridiculing laughter stopped.

“This is… How could that be?”

“He actually defeated Ben in one punch. Most importantly, he did not even use a combat skill”

On the high platform, the expressions of all the elders were also filled with surprise.

“Great!” Serah’s beautiful eyes continuously flashed when she saw Alex finally showing some skill.

“What is so great about this? Ben just underestimated his opponent and was not ready for Alex’s attack. If not for that, I think that brat would never have won the fight this easily.” Elmer curled his lips, sneered, and spoke. The more Serah had a good impression of Alex, the more Elmer hated him.

Serah only smiled at Elmer and did not say anything.

“Looks like everyone had underestimated you.” A cold light flashed across Mobish’s eyes when he saw Alex displaying his strength. He felt threatened for the first time. He had a feeling that this Alex might become his greatest opponent to fight for the seat of the core disciple.

The battles to enter the top ten were very exciting.

Alex unexpectedly defeated his opponent in just one strike which naturally attracted everyone’s attention. And from that instant on, everyone else stopped hiding their true strength as well.

“Mountain Smashing Palm.”

Mobish bellowed with his entire body releasing a sharp aura. He raised his hand high up, like a sharp blade, and fiercely slashed forward.

“Bang.”

With a single strike, he defeated his opponent and send him flying. One could tell who the winner was. It was lucky enough for his opponent to not die.

“Star Explosion Fist.”

A berserk energy suddenly surged out of James’s body. His entire body was like a ball of flame that could explode at any time and his whole fist was emitting a white flame. His fist collided with his opponent’s fist.

“Crunch~”

The sound of bones breaking sounded suddenly and James’s opponent flew out upside down as both of his arms were drooping unnaturally. He also won the battle by finishing his opponent in one blow.

“Thousand Illusion Palm.”

Layers of palm shadows appeared in the sky, some real while some illusory. A total of several hundred palm shadows covered the sky and punched down with a tremendous momentum.

This strike was made by Sabine, and it gave everyone a big shock. It is because none of them thought Sabine to be so hidden. She actually hid such a fierce strength behind her innocent and cute face. She never showed her strength before as well, and this time, because of Alex’s initiative that was followed by others, she also did not want to back down.

She also defeated her opponent in one strike.

“What’s going on?”

The people in the distance had long been struck dumb. The shock in the eyes of the elders on the high platform was getting denser and denser. There were so many hidden geniuses, they had never expected this result.

Arfan also showed his might. But he was different from others. He used his movement skill and showed an extreme speed.

His movement skill had already reached the point where he could move as he wanted, which could finally light up people’s eyes. Relying on his movement skill, he was almost undefeatable on the platform. He could always manage to make narrow dodges of the opponent’s attack and then make use of this opportunity to attack back.

In the end, he also won the battle.

All the battles came to end one after another.

The top ten had already come out.

But to everyone’s surprise, other than Mobish, James, and five other disciples, there were three more who were not expected by them to be ranked in the top ten. These three people were Alex, Sabine, and Arfan.

The spectators in distance were in an uproar.

“I have never imagined that the exam of the outer sect disciples this time would be filled with so many hidden talents!” Elmer said indifferently, it was unknown if it was praise or ridicule.

“Amazing, their talents are great.” The others were amazed.

On the high platform, the Great Elder was still as calm as ever. The other elders were also a little surprised, but that was all.

The list of the top ten came out.

Mobish, James, Sabine, Arfan, Hassan, Roy, Shoeb, Bablu, Irfan, and Alex.

All ten of them were extremely strong, but Alex was ranked last.

Yet another round of battles was quickly arranged.

They were Mobish versus Roy, James versus Shoeb, Sabine versus Bablu, Arfan versus Irfan, and Hassan versus Alex.

There was a distinction of five places between the two sides.

The second round of battles began once again.

Everyone climbed onto the platform and was standing in front of their opponents. They were looking at their opponents with a strong desire to defeat them.
