Sword God in a World of Magic

Elver, contestant 1, looked at the person in the white cloak in front of him.

He was confident that this was Shang, the Fallen Saint, the person that had vanished over 500 years ago after allegedly killing Jerald.

Earlier, Elver had been nervous about the mysterious Master of the foreign warriors. Contestant 31 had already been far more powerful than he had thought, and he had feared that he might lose against this mysterious Master.

Yet, he still had some hope.

But not anymore.

Elver knew Shang.

Elver had seen Shang's power.

Elver had seen what Shang could do.

And he knew that he couldn't possibly win.

All the watching Mages looked at the person in the white cloak with shock.

They hadn't seen this person move at all!

These powerful Mages automatically felt every small bit of movement inside their Spirit Sense, but this person had arrived in the middle of the arena without them noticing.

This was also one of the reasons why Lord Starsky had been so shocked.

He had felt the person move, but he had actually needed to pay attention to follow their movement. This was like someone feeling a slight tingle on their forearm and looking at it to confirm if there actually was something or not.

It could be considered incredibly impressive to make a Mage Lord pay attention to one.

But, of course, this wasn't the only reason why Lord Starsky was shocked.

The other reason was the power of that person.

Earlier, he had dismissed the people in the white and black cloak since they were well within the Realm of Ancestral Mages. A warrior couldn't possibly be that powerful. At least not right now.

Elver only looked at the person in white robes with a complicated expression without readying his weapons.

The person in the white cloak slowly raised his right arm, gesturing for Elver to attack him.
