Martial Arts System

Chapter 259: Darkness Of A Beast.

The stadium's lights started dimming down, until the corridors were painted in yellowish colors. The lights flickered, giving the place a creepy vibe.

It was like the sound itself was dimmed down as well. The previous sound of footsteps and the sound of wind swooshing were gone, and only the creepy silence was left.

A young man with blonde hair and attractive facial features stopped walking as the surroundings became dark. Soon, the lights started flickering.

Sometimes the corridor would be completely dark, and once in a while, lights appear, which barely shows the corridor.

This young man's identity is one of the Gold-Ranked fighters, Lucius!

Once the lights flickered, the hue of yellow dyed his skin, which made his injuries more than apparent.

He was slowly making his way to the Power Limit Remover, but he couldn't find it no matter how he tried.

Currently, the red dot was only 10 meters away from him, but there was a wall next to him, which completely blocked his path.

He clicked his tongue with annoyance and was about to turn around, but when his body had turned halfway, he noticed a pair of red eyes in the darkness.

''Eh?'' Lucius turned his head towards the red eyes with a questioning look. He rubbed his eyes and thought he was hallucinating, but soon the red eyes started making sounds.

''Grrr…'' The red eyes growled as he went into a lower stance.

Lucius widened his eyes in shock and started slowly retreating.

A small sweatdrop trickled down his unusually attractive face while the lights flickered one more time, and finally, he could see the identity with red eyes.

The Beast in front of him had black fur like it was made from darkness itself. It could perfectly blend in with darkness, and his red eyes showed the limitless bloodlust hidden in him.

''W-W-Why is Mutated Beast here?!'' Lucius cried out and felt his legs shaking uncomfortably. He knows that the Mutated Beast in front of him wasn't an ordinary kind.

He has seen videos about Fury Beasts, and they are nothing compared to Rage Beast.

Rage Beast could slice his body in half without any effort.

''Grrr…'' The Rage Beast took a menacing step forwards, but then…

Next to Lucius, a door opened, which caused him to snap his head in the direction of the door.

He widened his eyes in shock as he saw over dozen fighters looking at him with the same dumbfounded expressions.

He also recognized one of them…

A black-haired young man was standing with his arms crossed while his face showed his seriousness.

'Ichiro…' Lucius gritted his teeth with hate, but he had other problems. He quickly entered the room and quickly left the area around the door.

Everyone in the room warily looked at him, but then they heard a menacing growl coming from the door.

They slowly turned their heads and saw a four-limbed creature in front of the door. A trail of saliva left it's mouth like he just entered all you can eat buffet.

''Mutated beast?!'' Shouts of shock instantly resounded in the bright room.

''Let's work together!'' Lucius shouted, which caused everyone to look at him questioning looks.

''We can kill it together, but we need to work together and not backstab others!'' Lucius screamed until his voice became hoarse.

Everyone in the room looked at each other with suspiciousness. They also think that fighting together is the best idea, but they can also try to use the chaos as a decoy to steal the wooden box and leave the room.

Most of them came to the same conclusion. They will try to use the chaos as a decoy to steal the wooden box.

Ichiro saw the scene, and he already knew what they were planning. He shook his head with disappointment.

He unsheathed his sword, and he is planning to help to get rid of the Mutated Beast because it is obviously the most dangerous threat, but he also will kill everyone who is trying to steal the wooden box.

Lucius took a deep breath and grabbed a dagger, which he got from another Armory.

The Rage Beast finally entered the room, and his menacing-looking red eyes caused most of the young men and women to flinch.

…

In the spectators' room.

The VIPs started looking excited.

''Finally! This will be good!''

''What if everyone dies? That would be quite interesting.''

''I think half of the fighters will die, but the Rage Beast will be eliminated.''

While a heated discussion was happening.

Elina looked at the scene with a slightly nervous gaze, and he kept glancing at her own smartwatch, waiting for Kira's message.

'Kira… Hurry up.' She felt her heart racing without stopping. She can't believe that after reaching Martial King rank, her father would send her on such a suicide mission!

But, that tells a lot about their faith in her ability. Even her father couldn't tell apart her illusion, which means no one in the Underworld tournament has the ability to do that.

Her family used their connections to make a fake identity for her and specially made her rank as Martial Monarch to keep anyone with ill thoughts away, but that also means that if she ends up fighting somebody… She is most likely fucked.

But, she used her illusion ability to deceive most of the VIPs by destroying a city with a single attack, but that city was her family's property, and she only used her illusion ability.

That city is still there, but it is invisible to everyone.

Because of that act, there are countless rumors about her and her incredible strength.

She felt wary of Rijun at first because she heard rumors of him being Battle Maniac. But, she felt relieved to find out that he is nothing but a coward who only fights weaker ones.

If he was like the rumors said. Then she would be in a pickle.

*Brr*

Elina's hand trembled as a message came to her smartwatch. She felt her heart racing, but she uttered her willpower and looked at the message.

Soon, a relieved smile appeared on her face.

Kira succeeded!
