Chapter 268: Chaos
Chapter 268: Chaos
When the fire column first appeared and radiated a heat that caused the platform made of a durable material to glow like it was going to melt in the next moment, people who were seated quickly stood to their seat to run away from the treasure-stadium. The heat produced by Alex's attack was simply too strong for them to handle, despite been very far away from the platform. It was simply like a small sun had suddenly appeared at the battle platform, emitting intense unbearable heat.
However, the instructors from academies quickly sprung to action as they abruptly condensed protective screens from the different types of realm-energies that they cultivated. Then they used these massive screens formed from their energies to protect the mortals and the weaker cultivators.
...
After revolving for sometime, the rotating column of fire suddenly exploded into millions of dark scarlet sparks of fire which then reverted to slivers of pyroforce energy that returned to the realmverse.
When it exploded, it was like a gigantic firework. But it was beautiful as it illuminated the sky and the floor of the treasure-stadium in it dark scarlet color.
Then Alex who had dark scarlet fire burn continuously on his body like he was on fire snapped his fingers. And all of a sudden, the flame vanished like it was never there.
Now gazing at the people on the high table, or more precisely, Olivia, Alex gave a slight bow.
Then he straightened himself back with the aura of indomitability erupting from his valiant figure.
Suddenly, loud clapping sounds began to ring out.
It was the entire audience clapping for Alex with great astonishment and unfathomable awe in their eyes.
"Alright everyone. Now that the lover of my Great Holy Daughter has won the competition, then I can declare him as her husband" The principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy who had flew into the air delightfully said with a loud booming voice.
Immediately after he said this, everyone began to clap again with unbounded gladness in their hearts. They knew that he truly deserved to be the one to take away her precious and priceless virginity. And this time, the claps coming from them sounded thunderously that it seemed like they were all in a thunderstorm.
"So everyone, the exhilarating battle has ended. It's time to go back to your homes or workplaces. But I believe that you all enjoyed the battle, right? Now, I would like to tell all of you something which is the truth. To be honest, even though I have seen a lot of things that would make me never be astonished by whatever I may see again anywhere, I just couldn't help but be deeply astounded by this boy. I was simply totally amazed. His battle prowess, fighting skills are in one word, monstrous. I never thought that he would be able to deliver so much. He simply gave us many delightful and surprising things to see. All that he did on this battle platform, I really never expected it. From releasing radiantforce energy which is difficult to comprehend to fighting geniuses from about fourteen academies at once and knocking them away with a single attack, and then finally, chasing away a powerful soul cultivator. Isn't that just deeply amazing? No wonder Olivia who is the Great Holy Daughter of my academy loves him so much. Anytime I look into her eyes when she is looking at this boy, I see nothing but strong, towering flames of eternal love. She may love him for his truly epic attractive look, but I am certain she likes him for his shocking strength and surprising abilities. Like she said, he's unmatchable. And from what we have witnessed, she is right. He truly can't be compared to anyone in his cultivation stage, as he's faster, stronger and powerful." The principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy said with unbounded happiness in his tone.
Now, from all that everyone have witnessed, his school's fame would greatly shoot up.
People would respect his students the more, and the Great Holy daughters and Sons that the academy produced.
Although Olivia who was also a Great Holy Daughter did something that was very shameful and embarrassing, people wouldn't really have anything to say again about it as the boy that took her virginity was one that contended with all the geniuses from all the academies in the city and defeated everyone of them.
His battle power was simply matchless, and he wasn't arrogant, unlike the geniuses from these academies that behave like they were gods, as they expected people to cower before them and give them anything that they demanded free of charge. Also, they expected people to bow to them when they were passing by. How outrageous.
The principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy simply felt extremely great.
Then continuing his speech, he excitedly said "Now, if we all remember, I once said that any one who would knock down this boy from the stage would get a massive reward from me. Well, since he has won the competition to secure Olivia's hands in marriage, he has also won the prize which I am going to give out."
Then with a sudden flick of his finger at Alex, a spatial ring appeared and shot towards Alex who then caught it with a smile in his face. Then he stowed it away in his mom's spatial ring.
When the principal of the Immovable Mountain did that, he returned to his seat that was at the high table. And the radiant smile that had long appeared in his face when he started his speech, was still seen in his face as he returned to his seat.
"Thank you very much senior" Alex immediately and politely said after he caught the spatial ring which contained his reward for winning the competition.
Then before Alex could leave the platform and walk towards any place that he had in mind, the principal of the Scarlet Flame academy surprisingly stood to his feet. And with towering furiousness in his tone, he questioned with a loud voice.
"Why did you attack my student with a stealth, poison-laced attack?"
Huh?
Alex was taken aback.
Why would he want to do that? He always loved to fight fair and square.
Then to defend himself from the accusation that was seemingly, blindly made against him, Alex said without fear in his tone "Senior, I would never try to use inglorious or underhanded means to win a battle. I love to fight battles with my abilities and would never employ the use of poison-etched weapons. It just isn't my style"
Hahaha!
The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy laughed raucously.
"So how did a poisoned needle find his way into his body?" He asked angrily. Then he continued as he questioned further "And don't tell me that you have the physical strength to hurl a needle that would pierce through the armor that he wore. You must have been aided by some treasures that gave you great hurling power. So, I would ask again. Why did you do that to my student?"
Alex looked at this principal with furrowed brows. Then he understood that he was trying to create trouble for him, as he was sure that everyone, including him who was a powerful cultivator, would see when the genius from his academy threw a needle at him so that when he was pierced by it and was instantly greatly weakened by the poison that would be flowing in his body, he would be overwhelmed, humiliated and disgracefully knocked off the stage.
"Sir, I didn't try to do anything to your student. It was your student who tried to do something insidious to me. I am sure that you saw when he fired the needle at me which I caught and then threw back at him using only my strength. I didn't make use of any throwing-purpose treasure" Alex replied.
"Shut up! So what are you trying to say? That I didn't know what I saw?" The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy furiously asked.
Alex's eyes then shone from observing the principal's unusual movement using his powerful vision, and then his emotions from using his suddenly activated emotion-sense.
Then before he could be hit by a devastating wave of energy that was abruptly unleashed at him, Alex readily used his amazing physical strength to leap away from the stage and unto the ground in the far distance. And once he landed, he took off at great speed in the direction of the high table. His aim was to run towards Olivia's family as he was certain that they would protect him. He wasn't sure why his uncle hadn't shown himself.
As he dashed towards where the high table was, a few of the principals began to fight the principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy and the other principals that were here. They also fought Olivia's family members who couldn't extend a hand of protection towards Alex as they wanted to defend themselves from their challengers' attacks.
So, in this manner, the whole place was thrown into chaos.
Then very quickly, people stood from their seats and began to rush out of the treasure-stadium through the numerous exits that it had in large groups. And as they scurried away in the massive groups that they had formed to the various places that they all came from to watch the match, they couldn't help but think why all these was suddenly happening, and even began to worry about Alex's safety.

"Why are you folks suddenly doing all these? I don't understand. What exactly has gotten into you people?" The principal of the Immovable Mountain Academy asked loudly with deep puzzlement and great wrath in his tone, and this made him sound like an angered beast.
"The principal of the Scarlet Fire academy has promised us many cultivation resources that are exceedingly rare, and tremendous amounts of sapphirstones if we can hold you back till he finishes what he plans to do." One replied with a wicked smile in his face.
