"You should not have been trapped by Tan Hui’s schemes. If he could betray me for his own interests, he could easily betray you one day when his goals are achieved! But enough of this… it turns out you are just as ambitious as Tan Hui. Both of you are equally cunning, and I will make you both the victims of my sword’s ferocity!" Mao Tung—continued.
Jian Ma swallowed hard. He could feel the energy radiating from the Sword of the Realm growing stronger each time Mao Tung spun it.
But the ruler of the Demon Tribe struggled to overcome his panic. He realized he would not be able to think clearly if panic consumed him. Besides, he still had several powers he had not yet used, and he intended to use them to defeat Mao Tung.
"If you think you’ve won just because you’ve made me bleed, you are gravely mistaken!"
Jian Ma gripped his staff tightly with both hands. He twisted his grip in opposite directions, splitting t

Tournament V
After Aji’s departure, Ratih released a long, trembling sigh. Her fingers slowly untied the silk robes that clung to her body before she slipped into another set of garments.For reasons she could not quite grasp, ever since Aji had taken her hand, her thoughts refused to let go of his face. His calm gaze, his confident smile, and the warmth that lingered in her palm haunted her every breath. Even when she finally lay down to rest, the image of that handsome young man drifted into her dreams, vivid and consuming.The next morning, the air around the grand stage was thick with excitement. The crowd had already gathered, filling every corner of the arena. Those who had survived the first round stood in eager anticipation for the second. Among them were Aji and Ratih, standing side by side amidst the sea of competitors and spectators.Their striking appearances drew countless eyes. Many whispered in admiration, convinced that Aji and Ratih were a pair of warriors destined for one another
Tournament IV
The man’s temper flared at Ratih’s sharp words. He shot up, ready to leap onto the stage, but his friend quickly grabbed his arm and shook his head.“Don’t make trouble now,” his companion warned, glancing nervously toward Aji, who was watching them closely.The furious man cast a brief glare at Aji before helping lift Bogang—whose body hung limp and battered—off the ground. Together, the two men pushed through the crowd, guiding their defeated comrade away from the stage.Ratih landed lightly as she jumped down from the platform. Graceful as a cat, she approached the handsome man who had arrived just a moment too late to witness her full display of skill.“Lucky for you your opponent didn’t notice your weakness,” Aji whispered beside her ear, his tone calm but teasing.The beautiful girl frowned slightly. “And where exactly is this weakness you’re talking about?” she asked, curiosity flickering in her eyes.“I’ll show you at the inn,” Aji replied with a small grin. “There’s a gap in
The Tournament III
“At last, we meet again on this very stage, Wojo,” the tall, broad-shouldered man declared, his voice brimming with fury. “This time, I’ll avenge the humiliation you gave me before!”Wojo chuckled, his tone dripping with mockery. “Cipto... Back then, I didn’t even fight seriously — and you still lost. Even after all your training, you’ll never be strong enough to defeat me.” His smirk only deepened the hatred burning in Cipto’s eyes.“You bastard! I’ll kill you today!” Cipto snarled, his rage exploding. In a single breath, he lunged forward, his long arms and legs slicing through the air in a relentless assault.From his seat near the crowd, Aji watched closely, his calm eyes reading every movement, every flaw. He wasn’t just a spectator — he was studying them, gauging their strength. After all, one of them could very well become his opponent later in the tournament.“The tall one,” Aji murmured softly, his tone measured, “won’t last much longer.”Ratih, standing beside him, heard his
The Tournament II
With nothing more than a simple nod, both men answered the question. The announcer, visibly relieved, exhaled deeply before stepping down from the stage. Beneath the platform, a loud, broad-shouldered man — the gambling bookie — began shouting to the crowd, his voice echoing across the arena as he tried to lure spectators into placing their bets. He waved his hands frantically, doing everything he could to make the opening match of the tournament as thrilling and profitable as possible. "One against two! One against two!" he cried out, his tone sharp and desperate to draw attention. When no one seemed interested, the bookie raised his offer again, his voice rising with enthusiasm, “One against three! Come on, one against three!” That finally stirred the crowd. One by one, people began to step forward and place their wagers. Most of them chose Sapto as the likely winner, while only two brave souls placed their bets on Aji. One of them was Ratih, who used the remaining coins Aji ha
The Tournament
After that, he lay down and closed his eyes, surrendering himself to the dreams impatiently swirling in the depths of his subconscious.The crow of a rooster pierced the dawn, welcoming the morning sun and stirring Aji from his sleep. The man rose and stepped out of his room, heading toward the small river behind the inn.The cold, clear water tempted the strong, handsome man to dive in and linger, but he restrained himself—he was eager to witness the upcoming martial arts tournament.Without wasting time, Aji left the river and walked to the small eatery he had visited the previous night to have breakfast.Meanwhile, near the tournament stage, a crowd of participants had already gathered, lining up to register for the competition.Among them, Ratih stood out. Not only because she was the only woman participating, but her beauty drew every eye—especially those of the less honorable men.Several of them glanced shamelessly at her
Ratih
Aji frowned slightly as he noticed the confusion on the beautiful girl’s face. The handsome young man asked softly,“Is something wrong? Do you need any help?”The girl glanced at Aji for a brief moment, then lowered her head. She was afraid—afraid that if she accepted his help, he might demand something in return. Worse still, she feared he might expect her to repay his kindness with her body.A shiver ran down her spine. Yet she couldn’t ignore the embarrassment of her situation. Not being able to pay for the food she had already eaten was mortifying.“Why are you so quiet?” Aji asked again. “Is there something I can do for you?”At last, the girl decided to accept the handsome stranger’s offer. At least she could deal with this small humiliation first. If her worst fears came true, she would fight back—even if it cost her life.After taking a deep breath, she finally answered, “My money pouch is gone. Someone must have st
