Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Galen was frowning, watching all this, "How did he do that? That artifact was ancient grade that could even block an immortal attack a few times."

What Alex did was worse than just destroying his artifact; he phased through it like it was just a normal object. Galen knew there were some bloodlines and secret techniques that allowed someone to pass through.

This method might have some minor differences, but every single one of them utilized Qi. Because of this, phasing through anything that had Qi would become a problem. This included attacks and artifacts.

"Doesn't this mean he can enter any place he wants?" Galen also didn't feel anything with his artifact. It was like nothing went wrong.

While everyone was still dazed with his performance, Alex started his attack.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

He kicked Zhu Zheng multiple times in the cheek, nose, and head, each time giving out a loud noise.

"Give up yet?" Alex asked with a smirk.

Zhu Zheng, meanwhile, was too shocked to respond; everything happened so fast. The next thing he knew, he was attacked by Alex. He tried to exert his strength to get out from the floor, but it was useless.

He also tried to exert his Qi, but it dispersed before it could even form into any technique.

"Not responding… I see you are really tough. Try this."

Alex raised his foot high above his head. Flames ignited from his feet as he then stomped it hard on his head.

BANG! CRACK! The loud noise reverberated all over the arena. They swore they could feel the ground shake the moment the attack hit.

"ARGH!!!" Zhu Zheng groaned in pain. He threw up blood, but he was still alive. He could feel sharp pain coming all over his body.

The shockwave from Alex's attack almost pulverized all the bones in his body.

Realizing how bad his situation was now, Zhu Zheng's mind quickly moved to find a solution. Since he couldn't exert any Qi, taking an item from his storage ring was out of the question. But thankfully, he could still use it to protect and heal his internal organs.

He then remembered his staff was now lying in the arena. Different from his storage ring, his weapon was a spirit artifact. He then tried to call out the spirit beast within.

The staff began reacting; it vibrated on the ground and then floated up like it was alive.

It shot through the air like a rocket. Alex didn't even turn his head. He just lazily raised his hand and grasped it.

A shockwave exploded the moment he caught it, as his fire Qi reacted towards Zhu Zheng's ice Qi. At first, Alex's Qi was losing, but the moment he infused life force, it quickly overwhelmed the staff.

His eyes looked down at Zhu Zheng, then said with a gloating smile, "Nice weapon."

His words gave Zhu Zheng a bad premonition. The next thing he knew, he felt like his soul was split in half.

Alex was infusing his own will into the weapon. In the inner world, he was met with a tall creature, one and a half his height.

The beast had ash-white fur with sharp jagged teeth. Its eyes were white, while its arms were long, reaching up to its knees.

Alex could also see two twisted antlers coming out from its head, making him think of a creature he sometimes read about in horror movies. "A wendigo?"

"GROOAAR!!!" The wendigo screamed in anger as someone came into its territory.

It began dashing forward to attack, but Alex just stood still. "Showing off your strength, huh? Two can play that game."

His crimson eyes glinted in a green hue, then he grinned, showing his sharp fangs.

"COME!" Alex said in a normal tone but infused it with the essence of the progenitor.

He learned this after seeing how Vesa intimidated most beasts they faced. So far, as long as they weren't sentient, this method almost always worked.

The beast stopped in its tracks. Alex then infused more of the progenitor's presence into his voice, "Kneel!"

The wendigo, with defeated shoulders, quickly followed his command. Alex then walked slowly toward the beast. He put his finger on the wendigo's head.

A green light came out as his finger began drawing a rune with proficiency. After he finished, the link between the wendigo and Zhu Zheng was cut off.

Back in the real world, Alex began playing with the staff, spinning it around as he purposefully smacked Zhu Zheng's bald head multiple times in the process.

Most people in the crowd began to cry in tears, "My money!"

All of them knew the fight was already decided, and so far, it could be said everyone already knew who the champion was.

When they saw Zhu Zheng, they thought he would probably win the competition, as he was famous as one of the top cultivators. But now he was beaten so miserably that he couldn't even touch a single hair on Alex's head.

"Who is he? I don't believe he is just a golden core cultivator," Situ Chen said with confusion.

"He is not from this world. Did some of the rats pass through their defenses?" The woman said in a cold tone.

"How would you know that?"

"You barely know of their existence and have never faced one. If you have, you will understand why I think like this.

That green energy that appeared around him is not something we are familiar with, so either he is a genius that invented a new method, or he is an outsider.

What do you think is more possible?"

"An outsider," Situ Chen's eyes glinted in coldness.

"If he really is a genius, there is no way we just heard about him now. But how? Did one of the defenders become a traitor?"

"You think we are like this pathetic clan? We know what is at stake.

You guys may all forget about this, but my family will never forget it. Even if that incident happened ages ago."
