Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang watched as the massive Arenas flew into the void and stacked over each other like a set of cards under the control of an Immortal Sovereign. He raised his head and found that only the viewers’ positions were stacked over each other. Shi Lang could not help but feel insignificant in the face of such power.

He took a deep breath, and Sovereign Hammer Fist said, “Boys and girls, the time has come for the final round of the round robin.”

The crowd cheered. Although the effect was not as loud as before, it was still significant. Shi Lang sensed vibrations coursing his body. He has never seen this level of crowd. Even the intergalactic competition did not give Shi Lang such a vibe. These people were all crazy for battle.

Shi Lang thought for a bit and looked around to find Amelia amongst the crowd, but before he could do so, Sovereign Hammer Fist said, “Let the battle for the top forty begin.”

None of the people even had time to think when the old man waved his hand, and people flew through the void to fight each other. Shi Lang was not worried about his opponent and still tried to look around for Amelia. He caught a glimpse of a person in fiery red armor. However, a loud yell interrupted him before he could say anything, “How dare you look away from me?”

Shi Lang was pissed off and said, “You dare to disturb me from looking for my wife?”

The Terran was enraged, and his voice echoed throughout the Arena. The next moment, he clenched his fist and said, “Lightning Fist, lightning shower.”

His fists were covered with red lightning, and they turned into afterimages. The blows rained down on the burly man instantly, and the impact was so strong that the punches went through the defensive spiritual shield as if a hot knife were stabbing through butter. The people only saw lightning streaks raining down on the burly man before he was shoved into the ground.

Shi Lang landed on the ground and yelled, “Who is next?”

Sovereign Hammer Fist chuckled and waved his hand again. Shi Lang found himself standing before another person, and the battle began. The other person had just finished a battle when Shi Lang charged him with lightning-covered fists. The Terran did not allow the new opponent to register what was happening.

The other person only saw a great flurry of red shadows before him, and the next thing he knew was darkness. Shi Lang was furious at old man Hammer Fist but could not do anything to the person in the void. Since he could not do anything to him, the next best option was to the person he was asked to fight.

After five fights, the crowd was reduced to twenty people in the Arena. Shi Lang looked around, and just as he spotted Amelia, old man Hammer Fist said, “So, now is the time to…”

Shi Lang raised his head and yelled, “Old man, do you think just because your realm is higher, you can keep yapping your old mouth like that? Believe it or not, if you stopped my reunion with my wife, I will show you what a real hammer feels like.”

Sovereign Hammer Fist and the rest of the people in the Arena were shocked. However, a chuckle broke the solemnity. Tian Long appeared beside the stunned Hammer Fist and said, “Old man, calm down. Let the youngsters have a break.”

Shi Lang did not care about anyone. He rushed toward Amelia, who was looking at him, stunned. She did not expect him to even bad mouth a Sovereign like that. She watched him walk towards him; it was not just her, but many people in the Arena were watching him. Four of his friends, Bo Qingtan, Ying Yu, Yang Niao, and Yun Xue, were also watching him.

They were all stunned by the galls of this guy. As Shi Lang was getting closer to Amelia, the hearts of many women were beating in anticipation of a heartwarming reunion. However, it seemed as if everyone was against Shi Lang.

A young man appeared before him and flung a fist at Shi Lang. None of the people expected such a thing, and even Shi Lang, who has never suffered a sneak attack, did not because he did not expect anyone to stand up to him at this juncture.

Shi Lang was punched square in the face, and he moved ten meters away from the original position. However, Shi Lang regained his balance, and looked at the person before him. The young man smirked and said, “If that is all you have, and yet you dare to act out before his excellency, you sure know how to bark.”

The Terran did not say anything, and he watched the person talk calmly. The young man continued to say, “Do you think you and your wife are above the martial council? How dare you act like a ruffian here? You country bumpkin.”

Many people found this act amusing and cursed this young man, mostly women and some romantic men. However, those who knew Shi Lang, inside or outside the Arena, knew how this would end.

The young man asked, “Why are you not talking now? Do you not want to meet your wife? Or did my blow give you amnesia? Hahaha!”

Shi Lang raised his head to look at Tian Long and asked, “Does his life matter?”

The people were stunned. The next moment, Tian Long shook his head. Shi Lang vanished from his place and appeared behind the young man. He kept on walking ahead as the young man stood in his spot. Shi Lang stood before Amelia and said, “Sorry, I lost my temper just now.”

Amelia wanted to say something when everyone in the viewer’s pavilion gasped. The young man’s head slipped off his shoulders and landed on the ground with a dull thud. Shi Lang touched Amelia’s cheek and said, “I have missed you a lot.”

Amelia closed her eyes as she rubbed her face against his palm. She held his hand and said, “So have I, my love. So have I.”

Shi Lang did not know why, but he wanted to cry. Amelia leaned in and kissed his lips suddenly. She did not care about the clamor of the people, nor was she afraid of anyone.

A pair of gazes were locked at the couple, brimming with malicious intentions. The Terrans avoided the gazes for the time being. He held Amelia tightly with his arms coiled around her waist. He pulled her and spoke with his spiritual sense, “I wish I could take you right here and right now.”

He did not understand why, but despite having controlled his urges for so long, he was about to lose himself in lust for his wife. Amelia blushed a bit as she broke away from the kiss. She said, “After the tournament.”

Shi Lang took a deep breath and calmed down after a few moments. He nodded and cupped his fists as he bowed to the elders in the void, “Elders, forgive me for my impudence. I am a person who has ascended from a lower realm. My wife has made an even greater effort to come after me. I could not help it.”

Tian Long nodded and said, “This is what a man should be. Commit to the depth of your soul and go crazy for the one you love.”

Many people shouted from the viewer stands. They cheered for Shi Lang and Amelia. Sovereign Hammer Fist raised his hand and said, “I understand what is going on; after all, you have emotions, too. However, I have a question. Tell me if you would repeat your actions?”

Shi Lang took a deep breath and was about to answer when the old man put out a strong pressure. The Terran was about to kneel but held his head high as his feet sunk into the ground. He knew that the old man was testing his resolve.

Shi Lang looked at Amelia’s shadow on the ground and smiled as he said, “I will do it all over again, even if I have to fight the entire world, even if it is the gods or the demons. I will stand against them to get to her and my family.”

A calm voice sounded from the void, “Old Man Hammer Fist, you are still up to your silly test of hearts?”

The old man did not say anything and withdrew the pressure. He said, “Sovereign Tian Long, you can take the lead from now on, or she will beat me up.”

Tian Long chuckled and said, “I will try my best.”

Shi Lang managed to stand up and held Amelia’s hand. The Heavenly Sovereign said, “Alright, so getting on with the final stage now. Let us set up the nineteen pillars of strength for our top fighters.”

Tian Long waved his hands, and long wooden poles appeared on the ground. The people cheered watching the excitement. The final battles were about to begin.
