Sword God in a World of Magic

The group of barbarians walked into the camp with uncertainty.

Shang very quickly noticed that their group was the only one wearing collars. The other barbarians didn't wear any collars whatsoever.

Of course, this resulted in the other barbarians throwing disgusted glances at the new arrivals.

Most of the barbarians stopped training as they gathered into a group to look at the new arrivals.

Subconsciously, this made the barbarians with the collars also gather into one group, and in no time at all the two groups stood opposite of each other.

A tense moment of silence passed.

"Criminals," the tallest barbarian of the other group said with disgust as he stepped forward.

He was over two meters tall, and he carried a gigantic and wide club.

Shang noticed that he was at the Peak General Stage.

'There are no barbarians at the Commander Stage present. I guess this is a standard outpost.'

"You will keep to yourselves," the huge barbarian said. "Criminals stay with criminals."

Most of the barbarians were intimidated by the huge barbarian, but some others grew angry.

"I don't accept orders from you!" a barbarian with a collar shouted as he stepped forward.

He was also at the Peak General Stage.

"Criminals have no right to speak," the tall barbarian said with his deep voice.

But the other barbarian didn't back down. "Weaklings also have no right to speak."

Outrage swept through the gathered group of barbarians.

This criminal had called their leader weak!

The tall barbarian narrowed his eyes at the other barbarian.

Then, he took out his gigantic club and put it to the side.

BOOOM!

The sound of the club hitting the ground reverberated throughout the entire camp.

Its weight was insane!

Then, he stepped forward to look at the other barbarian, who was smaller than him by a bit.

The other barbarian also walked forward, and in no time at all, they were looking into each other's eyes from very close.

"I challenge you for your position," the smaller barbarian said slowly with narrowed eyes.

The taller barbarian only looked back.
