SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

The air crackled with explosions, and the relentless exchange of arrows illuminated the darkened training ground. A thin, membrane-like advanced sound barrier encapsulated the area, preventing the sounds of their intense clash from escaping into the night.

Kent and Porus moved like phantoms across the field, their positions constantly shifting as they fired powerful arrows at each other. The air was filled with a deadly rain of projectiles, each one humming with lethal intent. Kent, despite being up against the formidable Peak Master, fought on equal footing, his skill and determination evident in every movement.

Hours passed, and the battle showed no signs of waning. Both fighters were drenched in sweat, their bodies were pushed to the brink of exhaustion. Kent fought on an equal level with peak master Porus as his growing mastery over the Nirvanic flames and the wind element helped his attacks.

With each passing moment, he became more adept at obscuring Porus\'s vision and repositioning himself with blinding speed.

As the fight wore on, Kent felt his aura levels approaching depletion. His breathing grew ragged, and his muscles screamed for relief. Yet, he pushed on.

Suddenly, Peak Master Porus\'s voice rang out, a booming command that cut through the chaos. "Now, Kent, do it!"

In an instant, Porus released a barrage of arrows, each one imbued with earth-shattering power. The arrows transformed mid-flight, morphing into massive boulders the size of men and hurtling towards Kent with devastating force.

Kent\'s heart pounded as he felt the bowstring taut under his fingers. For a split second, he paused, muttering the mantra. With a fierce determination, he invoked the Moon-Shattering Spears spell, a spell he had painstakingly learned for the group fight in the arena tomorrow.

As he released the arrow, it transformed into a multitude of ethereal spears, each one glimmering with a silvery light. The spears shot forward, meeting the incoming boulders head-on. The collision was spectacular; the spears shattered the boulders into fine powder, the remnants dispersing into the night air like a cloud of stardust.

The training ground fell silent, save for the heavy breathing of both master and disciple. Both of them put away their bows and moved towards the entrance of the training ground.

"I never thought you would improve so fast. Good luck for tomorrow\'s fight." Peak Master Porus said while walking out of the training ground.

"It\'s all because of your teaching, master." Kent replied while following Porus closely.

"That moon-shattering spell will definitely help you counter the Jade Mountains sect disciples. I hope you will win tomorrow." Porus replied with a smile.

"I\'m not thinking about the fight, master. With your teaching, it won\'t be hard for me to win tomorrow\'s battle. I\'m just wondering about the Inheritance Ground awakening." Kent replied.

"Don\'t think too much about inheritance grounds. You will get what is meant for you. By the way, we might be leaving the sect after two days. So, be prepared with your things." Porus said.

"The inheritance ground opening is very close. Where are we going now, master?" Kent asked with a curious look.

"Nine Cauldron Summit. It is an auction ground controlled by the Wizard Association. Before every inheritance ground opens, the wizard association conducts an auction on top of the Nine Cauldron Summit. They will auction all types of defensive talismans, rare equipment, and several other powerful things. The patriarch already gave me a huge fortune to buy useful things for you. Be ready on time.

You will also meet other sect disciples and powerful people in the realm during this auction. It will be a good experience for you." Peak Master Porus explained everything with patience.

Kent felt excited after hearing about the auction. Since childhood, he has heard so much about wizard association auctions but never witnessed one. Finally, the opportunity came for him at the right time.

"Thank you, master." Kent bowed his head with a smiling face.

Porus patted Kent\'s shoulder and said good-bye. As the sun rays began shining the ground, Kent left the rising sun peak to prepare for today\'s Arena group fight.

Meanwhile, the situation at Arena is complete chaos. More than ten gambling stalls stood outside the arena gate, and almost every stall was busy with disciples and people. The entire arena is already filled, and more than twenty thousand disciples were waiting outside.

Fatty\'s stall, which was situated in the center, became a hub of chaos. More than ten servant girls were working like machines. The total amount crossed 30,000 spirit stones. Due to his brave 1:5 offer, all sect disciples poured their savings into Fatty\'s stall.

Especially the Jade Mountain sect disciples. As the top four fighters of their sect participated, they wiped all their savings and dumped them in Fatty\'s stall.

While the arbiter lady, Mei Bai, was feeding him meat balls, Fatty leaned back on his chair leisurely and enjoyed the scene of flowing spirit stones.

To facilitate all the disciples, the Arena officials arranged big aurora glasses all around the arena. Also, each spectator ticket was sold at a triple price. The entire arena is completely filled with people and buzzing with the loud shouts of disciples. Continue your journey on M V L

The name of the Jade Mountain sect resounded all around the arena. Due to the sect rivalry, the spectator stands were full of chaos. The arena master employed several elders to control the crowd.

There is still a lot of time left for the beginning of the fight, and the fighters still didn\'t reach the arena as everyone was making their final preparations.

Meanwhile, inside Kent\'s residence, both Sophia and Lucy were helping Kent to wear the combat dress and accessories.

"Sophia, how is the business going on on your property?" Kent asked while spreading his hands wide to let the ladies adjust his cape.

"It\'s really depressing. The sales were dropping day by day. My own family members were causing troubles for the workers who were working on my share of property." Sophia replied in a sad tone.

"As expected, don\'t worry. I already had a plan. After this fight, we will deal with your business." Kent replied with a mysterious smile.
