The Almighty Dragon General

The six powerhouses were furious at James' words.
Cedric roared, "How arrogant! Do you think you're invincible?"
He stretched out his hands, and thousands of purple-gold Sword Lights filled the formation, sweeping toward James.
The other powerhouses immediately charged forward with their clones, surrounding James from all directions.
James urged his Marciais Power, activated the Dawnblaze Form, and immediately engaged in battle with the six powerhouses.
Figures flickered about as power surged through the sky, and explosions erupted continuously, accompanied by the roaring of thunder.
James moved with astonishing speed that not even the six powerhouses at the Yitro Daeclon Rank could keep up.
Each time James used his Marciais Power, physical beasts even more potent than what Yianni could summon would materialize. A black dragon by the raise of his hand and a tiger by the kick of his foot. Soon enough, he was surrounded by a swarm of spiritual beasts.
James confronted the six powerhouses in close combat. He held his ground and even gained the upper hand.
Roar!
The growls of a mighty black dragon resounded through the air. James thrust his palm forward, commanding it toward Cedric.
Horrified, Cedric quickly summoned his four clones to intercept the attack.
However, they stood no chance against the dragon's attack and were obliterated upon impact. Flesh and blood showered down in the formation.

The black dragon continued surging forward until it struck Cedric, piercing a large bloody hole through him.
Cedric staggered and spat out a mouthful of blood, clutching his chest in utter disbelief. "How? How are you so strong?"
James had no time to pay him any attention. He quickly turned around and unleashed another powerful palm strike. Countless blood-red palms emerged and shattered the other five powerhouses' clones, instantly dealing severe injuries to their main bodies. They collapsed inside the formation, only to be consumed by the raging flames. Their screams of agony filled the air.
With just one move, he had already inflicted critical wounds on his opponents, instantly gaining the upper hand.
James hovered in the formation, surrounded by lightning bolts like a domineering war god.
Sylvia was the only one who had not suffered grave injuries. She endured the intense pain and rose to her feet, staring at James in disbelief, she asked, "Are you already at the Soma Daeclon Rank?"
James smiled calmly in response, then suddenly extended his hand and forcefully pulled her over.
He scrutinized her and commented, 'You have a good figure and are quite beautiful. I’ll have you marry a friend of mine."
After speaking, James casually shoved her behind him.
Sylvia was about to fight back but was caught by Lesia.
"Who are you?!!" Sylvia asked, her face pale with shock.
Lesia put her hands behind her back and responded playfully, "You should call me madam. Anyway, sit back and watch. We'll spare your life. It's more than you could ever hope for."
Sylvia was too taken aback by James' formidable presence to entertain a verbal spar with Lesia. Among Zymurgy's younger generation, there were countless powerhouses. Yet, they underestimated him and foolishly thought the Demonbind Formation was enough to trap the Chosen One.
James stared at the five powerhouses writhing and screaming amidst the flames. His eyes flinted with a chilling, murderous intent.
Suddenly, Xenova shouted, "We're disciples from temples within Zymurgy.
Do you truly intend to kill US and make an enemy out of Zymurgy?"
James responded calmly, "You indiscriminately sided with Talc Chi. What does it matter if we become enemies?"
Xenovs pleaded desperately, "We have no interest in your vendetta with Tai Chi. Our goal was to retrieve Morgott's spirit and prevent you from going down a corrupted path."
James remained unmoved by his pleas.
Cedric, who was already gravely wounded, pointed accusingly at James and bellowed, "Demon, if you have the courage, kill me now. See if my master doesn't scatter your soul to the winds." "Very well. I shall grant your wish," James replied coldly, then waved his hand to summon a purple-red Sword Light.
The Sword Light plunged through Cedric's golden body almost instantly. A thunderous explosion ensued, blasting his flesh apart. Pieces of his body were scattered, and blood splattered everywhere.
