(OLD/NOT CANON) Immortal Ascension Tower

Chapter 81 - The Tournament Begins!

The Grudge's End had been restructured and turned from a place where people would come to resolve blood feuds into an Arena, to everyone's enjoyment. After all, enough blood had been shed on top of that location, why shed more? At that moment, the stalls were full to the brim with people.

Wether they were Disciples or Elders, everyone was hyped and couldn't help but feel their blood pumping when they thought what was about to begin!

The Golden Arena was made out by countless golden weapons. Few people knew exactly what kind of power this golden weapons held and even fewer had been able to witness those countless golden weapons smashing the gigantic Shadow Dragon into smithereens.

Now, these weapons had been arranged into the gigantic Golden Arena, a place where competitions and tournaments took place.

...

"A tournament?" Xiao Wu sat up on the bed. Her whole body hurt and she felt as if someone was striking her temples with a hammer.

Lao Jianghu sighed "Yes. I'm sorry to ask you this after you have just woken up, however it is for the best." He waved his sleeve and a round object flew through the air "Eat this. It should heal your body back to your top condition"

Xiao Wu grabbed the round object and examined it: it was a round medicinal pill. From the medicinal aroma wafting around the room, its grade seemed to be pretty high.

"Just think of it as being a chance to try to your new toy!" Lao Jianghu smiled and then turned around, heading outside "Come to the Golden Arena in two hours. Your two Martial Siblings will also be there!"

...

Xiao Wu dashed through the air and then came to a stop above the gigantic building made out of golden weapons. She scanned her surroundings for a bit. Finally, her eyes lit up as she noticed a pavilion next to the stage where the fighting would take place.

It was completely golden and a gigantic, golden eye was depicted on top of it.

Xiao WU smiled. She kicked off the air and sped downwards. In the blink of an eye, she had already stepped into the tent.

However, how could her actions go on unnoticed, especially in front os such a large crowd?

"Wasn't that the 'Princess', Xiao Wu? Such speed! I could barely catch her from the corner of my eyes..." A Core Disciple exclaimed as he gaped.

"Yeah, that was her! To think that such a young and beautiful lady would be so powerful..." An Inner Disciple whose senses were developed enough to catch a glimpse of the girl's figure shook his head and sighed.

Hearing their words, an Inner Elder nodded as he stroked his goatee "They say that she is the greatest genius this world has seen in centuries, millennia even!" 

"And they are not wrong! Nine years old and already at the Superior stage!" One of the Disciples from before, the Core Disciple, exclaimed. His eyes brightened as an expression of admiration appeared on his face.

"Greatest genius? But... Wasn't the Sect Leader, the Golden Emperor, also a child?" The other frowned.

"No way! Those are just rumours, aren't they? I mean, a child slaughtering the Reverend stage? Those people are at the very peak and are capable of inhuman feats!" The Core Disciple shook his head.

"Stop talking you three! They are about to announce the order of the matches!" A Core Elder humped.

The three immediately shut their mouth. It wasn't because they were afraid of the other's identity as a Core Elder, but because they also couldn't help but feel excited for what was to come...
