Once Human, Now a Parasite-700 Chapter 644 : A Week In Hell 2

700 Chapter 644 : A Week In Hell 2

"You have heard my warning and I have given you enough time to think about it. Now that you're here, do not think about leaving or begging for mercy, it's too late."

Arthur faced the six youngsters he picked. The competition is to be held in six days and he had given them 24 hours to think about what he said.

The six youths maintained their silence, their backs straight and all wearing simple training uniforms. There were 2 girls and 4 boys, and amongst them, Arthur recognized three.

The first was the bright and gorgeous-looking girl, Shu Ru. She's supposed to be the next head of the Mirage Era Hall, however, she opted to join the MoonStar sect and learn from Arthur and find out the connection between him and her grandfather.

The second person the parasite recognized was rather odd. It's not that his appearance was strange, his presence here was surprising, to say the least. This youth, who was fairly handsome and had crimson hair, was a former 'enemy' of Arthur.

This was none other than the cousin of the Flame Emperor, his arm was cut off by Arthur a long time ago but many things happened after that, things that Arthur was unaware of.

The young man had forsaken his sect and his former name and, along with his trusted friends, formed a small sect. Formerly known as Elo Huo, Ho Qing, let go of the grudge he bore against Arthur and wanted to learn and become stronger.

'Heh, that's quite a lengthy description.'

Arthur smirked as he looked at the appraisal results. It's undeniable that Ho Qing became a special person but he's still too weak, nevertheless, he deserves a second chance and his brave appearance before him proves that.

The third person Arthure knew was a girl with long purple hair and striking facial features. Her pupils were colored differently, one was pink and the other jet black, she's someone he met a very long time ago. Back then, he had not left Astria and went with Lucy to join the competition. The girl was one of the participants and what made her unforgettable was her unique pink ice magic.

'I doubt she remembers me though. I don't look the same.'

The Arthur from back then had a very different appearance than the current one.

Anyway, the remaining three weren't average either. Two belonged to the same sect from a High Realm called Dark Blaze. They were friends, the girl, named Cristina, wields a long black spear and the boy, Bora, has a metallic bow.

Last but not least, a youth with long white hair, grey pupils and a white robe that matched his hair. He introduced himself as Ardor, a lone traveler. He only had a sheathed azure sword on his waist and behaved politely. He's the least talkative one but the strongest of them all.

"I'm not going to discriminate between boys or girls, neither will I care about your status outside of these training grounds. If you don't listen to me, be ready for a beating before I throw you out. Now then, let us begin."

Arthur pointed at Ardor and spoke with an authoritative tone.

"Show me your strongest Swordplay. If you hold back then you're out… I'll also take your sword… mine is quite hungry, you see."

The parasite chuckled as he patted the vibrating Makaze, who wanted to devour the youth's azure sword.

Ardor nodded his head, a serious expression on his young face. He marched toward Arthur and stopped when the distance separating them was thirty meters or less.

With an incredible speed, he unsheathed his azure sword and charged at Arthur, a sharp and dangerous sword essence swirling around his weapon.

'He's able to demonstrate power that's equal to a Fusion Sovereign. Interesting.'

A devastating blast was unleashed by the azure sword as it came stabbing toward the motionless Arthur. The target didn't even move yet Ardor didn't hesitate and used all of his power in his attack.

The figure of the youth was enveloped by a formidable radiance, which transformed into countless white swords which flew at Arthur from all sides, even the air.

Unfortunately, Ardor felt a big resistance the moment his sword reached Arthur. As if he hit an unbreakable wall, the youth was pushed back a few meters but he managed to somersault and land properly.

The numerous white swords disintegrated into nothingness just as they touched Arthur's attire and in just a few seconds, everything returned to normal.

"Your master taught you well."

Ardor stood there, dazed for a few seconds before he forced a smile and bowed his head then retreated back to where the other five were standing.

"I can't criticize the execution but your sword essence is lackluster."

Arthur stated the truth, which made Ardor frown but he didn't retort and quietly listened to the parasite, after all, the man was infamous for his world-shaking power. Moreover, Ardor knew what kind of blade Makaze was and how strong it actually is, though its appearance is a bit different, especially the handle, which had a creature wrapped around it.

"Basically, you are talented and you can perform the difficult and powerful technique very well, however, your energy is lacking and your sword essence isn't honed. Next is you.

Arthur pointed at the spear wielding girl and patiently waited.
