Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1417: Ill-intentioned Visitor
Chapter 1417: Chapter 1417: Ill-intentioned Visitor
In the following period, besides occasionally listening to the City Lord of Hill Mountain City talk about Martial Dao, Wyatt Barnes spent the rest of his time cultivating in his room.
Of course, he was cultivating inside the Jewel Tower, without wasting a single moment.
It’s worth mentioning that Kai Simmons also moved into the mansion of the City Lord of Hill Mountain City.
Right after Kai Simmons arrived, Baer Bear, ever eager for chaos, wanted to pit Wyatt Barnes against Kai Simmons to decide who would be the ’Senior Brother’.
However, his plan was thwarted by the intervention of the City Lord of Hill Mountain City.
"Among you, Kai Simmons is the oldest and has followed me the longest... In theory, he is the ’Senior Brother’."
The City Lord of Hill Mountain City did this because he worried that if Kai Simmons was defeated by Wyatt Barnes, he would become disheartened.
Having followed him for many years, he naturally understood Kai Simmons’ character.
Unrestrained and proud, he had an unimaginable sense of superiority among his peers.
Sometimes, standing too high is not a good thing.
Because once you fall, the fall could be devastating.
The worry that Kai Simmons could be defeated by Wyatt Barnes stemmed from the news that Wyatt Barnes had killed a Transcending Mortal Realm fully complete Martial Artist from the Clark Family.
However, the City Lord of Hill Mountain City, despite his discreet intervention, still left a trace that was caught by Kai Simmons.
"Wyatt Barnes!"
Upon discovering that his master intended to prevent a match between himself and Wyatt Barnes and had even arranged it privately with Wyatt Barnes, Kai Simmons felt an immense provocation to his pride.
Therefore, he directly approached Wyatt Barnes.
"Senior Brother Kai Simmons, is there something you need?"
Wyatt Barnes opened the door and walked out, only to see Kai Simmons standing there with a gloomy face, prompting confusion in him.
He didn’t seem to have provoked this Kai Simmons, did he?
"Wyatt Barnes, I know Master has talked to you and asked you not to spar with me... So today, I want to challenge you to prove that I am indeed the ’Senior Brother’ in my own right," said Kai Simmons gravely.
Initially, when Kai Simmons first met Wyatt Barnes, he didn’t take him seriously.
It was only recently that he found out Wyatt Barnes had defeated Wyatt in a single encounter not long ago... And, to his astonishment, his master even believed that him, now fully complete in the Transcending Mortal Realm, might not necessarily be a match for Wyatt Barnes.
He couldn’t accept this!
The opponent was just a mid-phase Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist, while he was a fully complete Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist. Why should he be compared to him?
Kai Simmons was unaware of Wyatt Barnes’ breakthrough to the ’late phase of the Transcending Mortal Realm’.
Even if he knew, he would still find it unacceptable.
"Senior Brother Kai Simmons, could there be some misunderstanding? Teacher never approached me with such a matter, it’s just that I acknowledge my inferiority to you," Wyatt Barnes said with a wry smile.
Naturally, Wyatt Barnes would not reveal the City Lord of Hill Mountain City’s intervention.
Although Wyatt Barnes had not had many interactions with Kai Simmons, he could tell that Kai Simmons was a prideful individual who might not handle the blow of being defeated by him.
After all, in the eyes of Kai Simmons, he was merely a mid-phase Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist.
"Today, one way or another, we must battle!"
Kai Simmons’ insistence was beyond Wyatt Barnes’ expectations and eventually it even drew the attention of the City Lord of Hill Mountain City, as well as Baer Bear and Ingot Gold.
"Wyatt Barnes, you shall fight him... He must face what needs to be faced eventually," the City Lord of Hill Mountain City sighed and transmitted his voice to Wyatt Barnes: "Remember, do not hold back at all."
He was clear in his mind.
Should Wyatt Barnes hold back and if Kai Simmons notices any flaw, even if Kai Simmons wins, he would surely develop an ’inner demon’.
This thing called ’inner demon’, although elusive, does truly exist.
Once an ’inner demon’ arises, it would be difficult for Kai Simmons to breakthrough to the ’Entering the Saint Realm’, let alone the ’Saint Realm’.
"Yes, Teacher."
Since the City Lord of Hill Mountain City had spoken, Wyatt Barnes no longer had a reason to refuse. To be honest, he was also curious about how strong Kai Simmons was.
Although he was able to defeat a fully complete Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist from the Clark Family of New South Town, that was because the opponent had just recently broken through and was an indigenous person of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
As for the current Kai Simmons, Wyatt, using his Heavenly Eye, could see that he possessed a fully complete Transcending Mortal Realm cultivation; albeit not wholly stable, it was stronger than Lincoln Clark.
What’s crucial is that Kai Simmons, too, was a genius Martial Artist from the Mortal Continent with a solid foundation.
Since they were going to battle, Wyatt Barnes naturally would not hold back.
Even without the City Lord of Hill Mountain City’s instruction, he planned to go all out.
As for the battle between Wyatt Barnes and Kai Simmons, the most excited was none other than Baer Bear, "Haha... Senior Brother Kai Simmons and Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes are finally facing off! This battle between dragons and tigers will definitely be exciting."
Though Baer Bear and Ingot Gold said nothing, they stood by with anticipation clearly visible in their eyes.
"Begin," said the City Lord of Hill Mountain City from the side of the spacious front yard, watching the two stand off.
Suddenly, Wyatt Barnes and Kai Simmons in the arena moved almost simultaneously... Like two cheetahs, they burst forth like lightning, confronting each other head-on.
Bang!!
Accompanied by a loud booming sound, it was Wyatt Barnes’s fist colliding with Kai Simmons’s fist, creating a thunderous explosion.
A rolling wave of air ensued, ravaging the surroundings.
It is because of Martial Dao Sacred Land’s intense gravity and stable space.
Otherwise, the clash between the two of them would have stirred up a vast shockwave... such a shockwave, in Cloud Skies Continent, could sweep across an area of at least several hundred meters.
Even so, the rampaging wave of air still caused flowers, grass, and trees in the front yard to sway and rustle.
"Truly a talented Martial Artist from the mortal continent."
Forced back seven steps by the force of Kai Simmons’s punch, Wyatt Barnes, who saw Kai Simmons retreat only five steps, had a serious expression on his face.
The punch just now, after he deployed ’Silver Cloth Shirt’, was a full-power strike without any reservation... Fifty-two Saint Veins instantly mobilized True Energy, unleashing full physical power!
However, even so, facing Kai Simmons who also did not use any sacred martial arts techniques, he still fell into a disadvantaged position.
Although not by much, being at a disadvantage still meant being at a disadvantage.
At this moment, Wyatt Barnes had to admit, as a student earnestly nurtured by the City Lord of Hill Mountain City, Kai Simmons was indeed extraordinary... At the very least, compared to that member of the Clark Family at the peak of Transcending Mortal Realm, they were not on the same level.
Wyatt Barnes was surprised by Kai Simmons’s strength, but Kai Simmons was even more shocked.
"Is this Wyatt Barnes really just a mid-level Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist? A mere mid-level combatant from Transcending Mortal Realm possesses such formidable strength? If I hadn’t broken through to the peak of Transcending Mortal Realm, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to withstand a single punch from him."
Kai Simmons was emotionally stirred, struggling to calm down for a long time.
Wyatt Barnes’s strength had completely shocked him.
Under the condition that neither of them used sacred weapons or sacred martial arts moves... his unrestrained punch only managed to secure a slight edge.
You should know, he was a Martial Artist at the peak of Transcending Mortal Realm!
And standing in front of him, was merely a mid-level Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist.
"Wyatt Barnes, I heard you possess a bow, mighty enough to rival a top-grade Human-tier sacred weapon... Take it out. Let’s fight with all our might using our sacred martial arts moves!"
Unbeknownst to when it happened, a narrow blade appeared in Kai Simmons’s hand, which was his personal sacred weapon.
As a student of the City Lord of Hill Mountain City, naturally he would not be ill-equipped. His sacred weapon narrow blade was also a top-grade Human-tier sacred weapon, radiating light that rotated around it, like a bright moon in the sky.
"It should be so."
Wyatt Barnes also drew his Solar Archery Bow without delay. With the Solar Archery Bow in hand, Wyatt’s entire aura changed, like a fierce tiger baring its fangs.
"Come!"
Kai Simmons’s gaze grew intense, and with the release of his narrow blade, it seemed as if layers of turquoise waves formed in the air, propelling with a boom toward Wyatt Barnes.
This slash appeared simple, but it contained a terrifying power.
"If this move were a martial arts technique from a mid-grade Human-tier sacred weapon... then it must have been cultivated to the fifth realm of ’Purity’!"
In a flash, Wyatt Barnes also discerned the exceptional nature of Kai Simmons’s slash, a complicated technique streamlined into a simple and decisive strike, as if it could shatter the void.
A refined move from a mid-grade Human-tier sacred weapon cultivated to the fifth realm of ’Purity’, its power so formidable, could be compared to Wyatt Barnes’s current control of ’Meteor Strike’.
Meteor Strike, although only cultivated to the third realm of ’Polished Skill’, being a move of a top-grade Human-tier sacred martial arts technique, not only was the cultivation more difficult, but its power was also stronger.
The body followed the arrow!
Facing Kai Simmons’s preemptive strike, Wyatt Barnes dared not be careless, an arrow whistling through the air, and with it, he soared like a Flying Beast gliding swiftly through the sky.
Hum! Hum! Hum!
However, was Kai Simmons someone easy to handle? Facing Wyatt dodging, he quickly gave chase. The blade aura that burst forth from his hand split into three.
Splitting into three, with no false moves discernible, each slash contained an incredibly fierce aura.
"Hm?"
Just as a cold smile formed on the corner of Kai Simmons’s mouth, thinking he could suppress Wyatt Barnes with these three slashes, he found that Wyatt suddenly halted in place, staring blankly into the distant high sky.
"What are you doing?!"
Kai Simmons’s face changed drastically, stopping his blade momentum, while his expression turned exceedingly ugly.
Could it be that Wyatt Barnes intended to deliberately lose to him?
This made him feel incredibly humiliated.
However, Wyatt Barnes did not heed Kai Simmons, because through his Mysterious Eye, he saw a figure approaching the City Lord’s residence at an alarmingly fast speed.
"Ill-intended!"
Wyatt Barnes’s heart trembled inexplicably, detecting a scent of danger.
The second to sense something amiss was the City Lord of Hill Mountain City.
However, by the time he realized what was happening, that figure had already appeared above the City Lord’s residence and reached the airspace over where Wyatt Barnes and the others were.
"Intruding upon the City Lord’s residence, a capital offense!"
And just then, two figures rose into the air from both sides of the large estate, like two bolts of lightning, fiercely striking towards the newcomer with ferocious momentum.
"Be careful!"
The face of the City Lord of Hill Mountain City changed dramatically.
In the next moment, Wyatt Barnes and the others also changed color.
They saw that the two who had leaped into the air had not even gotten close to the newcomer before looking as if they were suppressed by an invisible force. They were slammed heavily into the ground, lifeless.
