Everyone's eyes and mouths were wide open. No one could say a word as they watched Arya's internal energy begin to take shape and solidify in the air. The point was not merely that he could release or control his internal energy, but rather the astonishing density and quantity of it. Floating around the place where Arya stood, there was not just one, but dozens of swords formed from internal energy, silvery-white in color, appearing real and realistic before everyone's eyes. Creating and controlling internal energy to such an extent—even a Gang Qi Master knew how difficult and complicated it was to do such a thing. Because to be able to do it, at the very least, one had to possess abundant internal energy, precise control, and extreme manipulation. Compare that to Grandmaster Jaya, who earlier could only release it randomly, and could not control it freely. One by one, they began to realize that what they had previously thought was extraordinary about Grandmaster Jaya was actuall

Several martial artists who saw Master Jaya's laughter seemed to feel a stir in their hearts. Grandmaster!? That was the dream they had been longing for all this time, but nearly ninety percent of martial artists failed to achieve it. But at this moment, Master Jaya's figure had actually succeeded in breaking through the threshold, and became a Grandmaster before everyone's eyes. Even if his condition looked pitiful, the extremely powerful and seemingly dominating aura that he unconsciously emitted was something that made anyone feel envious. If only they could replace Master Jaya's figure there. No! As everyone was thinking, they couldn't help but turn toward Arya, who was still standing calmly in his place, and showed no change whatsoever there, with heated eyes. This young man—he actually had a Gang Qi Master break through to Grandmaster! What did this mean? Didn't it mean that anyone who knew him and received his help could become a Grandmaster? Grandmaster? Thinking a

After laughing for quite a while, Master Jaya finally stopped and looked at Arya as though staring at a fool. With an amused yet contemptuous expression, he said, "Kid, I don't know where you came from. Compared to everyone else, you've certainly got guts, stepping into this arena. But do you even know what a Grandmaster is?" Master Jaya paused, looking Arya up and down for a long moment before shaking his head. "Before you hurt yourself, why don't you go home and get back to your fantasy games." Arya smiled faintly, not the least bit offended or angered by the insult. In silence, he crouched down and picked up a pebble from the cracked concrete of the arena floor, rolling it between his fingers. Seemingly satisfied with what he'd found, he stood back up and looked at Master Jaya with a small smile. "Hmph?" For some reason, the hairs on the back of Master Jaya's neck suddenly stood on end at the sight of Arya's action. But before he could react, his eyes narrowed in horror.

"Impossible!" Even Master Adipura himself was stunned, unable to believe what he was seeing. Because right now, directly in front of him, he was witnessing that the Gang Qi Master Jaya had released wasn't just denser and stronger than his own — its sheer volume was overwhelming. If coating his own special blade with Gang Qi was already impressive on its own, then Master Jaya, who had coated not just his entire arm but his whole body with Qi, was operating on an entirely different level. "Grandmaster!" A thought suddenly struck Master Adipura, but he quickly shook his head and denied it. "Impossible! Your aura is still that of a Gang Qi Master. There's no way you suddenly became a Grandmaster. But the sheer amount of Qi you have—" Adipura and everyone watching froze at once, their expressions shifting to something between fear and reverence. "Could it be... he's close to breaking through to Grandmaster?" "Hahaha!" Master Jaya burst out laughing, thoroughly pleased with the r

Not only had Master Adipura suddenly turned deadly serious, but Robert had also begun to pale as he watched the scene unfold. This was especially true as he witnessed Master Adipura's aura begin to surge from his body, sending a shockwave rippling across the arena. "Boom." And with a sudden explosion, both figures on the arena floor vanished from sight. "Bang." "Bang." ... Aside from the sharp sounds of fist against fist and leg against leg, almost no one could actually see what was happening on the stage. "This fight..." Even though Wira had already reached the Bright Energy level, only one step below a Gang Qi Master, he still couldn't make sense of what was going on. Pale-faced and wide-eyed, he tried glancing at Arya to check whether the man could see it either. But he was stunned to find Arya looking utterly unbothered — even mildly impressed — by what was happening in the arena. Even more shocking was seeing that Kiara, the small girl who looked so innocent and sweet

Some time later. Their group finally arrived at an uninhabited island in the Madura Strait. A small, unnamed island, guarded on all sides by dozens of soldiers and police stationed around its perimeter. Less than ten hectares in total, the island was not entirely empty — at its center stood a wide arena surrounded by tiered seating and platforms, already filling with people. When Arya's group arrived, walking alongside Kiara and Thalya, they found Robert waiting to receive them, accompanied by Ryan, Wira, Hans, and several others Arya didn't recognize. "Master Arya, you've finally arrived." Robert greeted him with a smile, then glanced toward Thalya and Kiara — who was holding Oyen — with a trace of uncertainty in his expression. Reading the look, Arya said simply, "Circumstances required me to bring Kiara. As for Thalya, she's a personal assistant working directly with me." "I see..." Robert nodded and asked nothing further. The group made their way toward their designated s
