Chapter 350 High Priest
"Master Priest?"
"Master Priest!"
"Master Priest."
The dense crowd suddenly became restless, and with people addressing each other respectfully, a narrow path gradually opened up.
Da~da~da~
The sound of wooden sticks striking the ground rang out as the ritual progressed, and the once bustling crowd fell into a quiet stillness.
The high priest was arguably the most powerful figure in the region, and the warriors were all somewhat uneasy in his presence.
Fortunately, the high priest was much more amiable than they had imagined. He made a few jokes with a fairly serious expression, and the atmosphere became lively again.
Of course, there was still some restraint.
However, the arrival of the high priest made everyone more and more active. Looking at the refined man who had won four consecutive matches, even some people who originally did not want to show their faces became eager to participate.
If one could put on a show in front of the high priest, the resulting fame would be unimaginable.
However, to everyone's surprise, before they could even step forward, the high priest spoke first:
"A very good young man."
"Which tribe are you from?"
The sudden question startled the refined man for a moment, but he quickly recovered and hurriedly said the name of Xini's tribe.
When the name was revealed, everyone was shocked, as they had never expected that such a powerful man would come from a small tribe.
But the high priest remained calm and composed. His eyes had the unique turbidity of an old man, and it was this turbidity that prevented others from trying to see into his eyes.
But not long after, he suddenly smiled:
"Haha, very good. With a warrior like you on this land, the revival of our race is assured..."
Seeing the high priest smile, the others also clapped and smiled in response, but what the high priest said next made their faces stiffen.
Seeing you like this reminds me of my youth, when I was just as full of energy.
"How nostalgic... Haha, speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've participated in a battle. I wonder if this old man could have a chance to experience it, young man?"
Although it was phrased as a question, he began to take off his clothes after saying that, making it seem like he was leaving no room for refusal.
Everyone, including the leaders, looked on in surprise and disbelief. No one understood why the priest would do such a thing.
But no one dared to object to the high priest's actions, and everyone could only watch silently as he undressed.
"Don't bully this old man!"
A strong, muscular upper body that didn't look like that of an old man was exposed in front of everyone. Looking at the old man standing in the field with a smile, no one doubted his fighting ability.
The refined-looking man didn't seem at a loss. He simply exchanged a glance with Lin Tian from a distance before assuming a fighting stance.
He hadn't been serious in the previous four matches, but this time he really needed to get serious.
tread! ! !
Although the high priest looked extremely old, the power he unleashed was in no way inferior to that of a young man. With a single step, he rushed out and arrived in front of the refined man in the blink of an eye.
call! ! !
With a single punch, a powerful gust of wind exploded outwards, bringing with it an immense sense of oppression.
The refined man's pupils dilated upon seeing this, but he did not panic. Instead, he stretched out his hands to try to deflect the high priest's attack.
boom! ! ! !
Unexpectedly, the high priest's punch was not only powerful but also contained a clever trick. The refined man was not able to completely neutralize it and was sent flying.
"I didn't expect the High Priest's fists to be so powerful..."
"Nonsense! Do you think the High Priest only knows magic?"
Although everyone was somewhat puzzled by the High Priest's involvement in the battle, as the fight began, their focus of discussion shifted to the High Priest.
The high priest walked with steady steps, displaying the demeanor of a powerful figure in every move. Even the refined man who had just made a name for himself was unable to gain any advantage over him for a time.
However, even with the high priest's fierce attacks, the refined man did not succumb.
Using his understanding of martial arts, he constantly dodged and weaved through the high priest's extremely oppressive attacks.
Some seemingly extremely dangerous attacks were neutralized one by one by his parrying, deflecting, and dodging techniques. The two sides exchanged blows, making for a very exciting fight.
call! ! ! !
Suddenly, the high priest, who had closed the distance, unleashed a powerful elbow strike, taking advantage of the refined man's momentary dodge to pursue him.
But at that moment, the refined man's eyes flashed and instantly turned crimson. In this critical instant, he unleashed tremendous speed, dodging and circling behind the high priest.
call! ! ! !
Without the slightest hesitation, the refined-looking man immediately swept his leg, intending to knock him down.
But the high priest seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He suddenly jumped up and then delivered a powerful backhand strike, sending the refined man flying several meters. This spectacular attack and defense drew loud exclamations from the onlookers!
"Young man, you've got some skills."
Upon seeing the refined man who had not been knocked down, a glint of light flashed in the high priest's eyes. He had witnessed the refined man's sudden burst of speed.
A secret technique...?
Without much thought, just as the high priest was about to test this man again, the refined man before him, who had remained undefeated for so long, suddenly spoke:
"I surrender."
This sentence made the high priest pause for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure. With his deep cunning, he did not ask why, but just smiled and said.
"Haha, then I'll say I've won. Young man, you're quite skilled. You don't need to worry too much about winning or losing. After all, I just wanted to try it out on a whim."
"How about this, I'll choose one item, and you can choose two of the rest. After all, with your skills, you should be able to win the prize."
After giving everyone a reason that he just wanted to have some fun, the high priest walked toward one of the prizes, which was the little polar bear that everyone coveted.
As the high priest lifted the wooden cage, he subtly glanced at the refined man and noticed that his pupils trembled for a moment, but he quickly calmed down.
Don't you want it?
The high priest fell into deep thought, but then he was startled again, as if he had remembered something, and suddenly turned to look at the crowd of spectators.
But upon looking, he could only see the tribal warriors who were congratulating him; he didn't see the person he wanted to see.
Ran?
