Hitman with a Badass System
chapter-29

"If he took another step and reach the 100th step, it would definitely offend those four"

"This is exciting, really exciting! I never thought someone from my River town will create a record like this!"

Various discussions were going all over the stadium about his shocking performance. Heaven's gate competition had been held for so many years, but no one had ever reached the top of the stairway. And now he's only a one-step from creating a long-lasting unbreakable record

The Elders of the Sunrise sect shook their heads and smiled. When they first met them, they had never thought he would be so special and a freak of nature.

However, when he was about to reach the 100th step, Celina gave a death stare and spoke in an extremely cold tone.

"DON'T!"

"You already proved your worth, don't let your willfulness ruin your life"

Obviously, Alex was threatening him who was the greatest assassin on earth.

"With your level, I will directly make you an inner disciple at the SilverMoon and personally help you in your cultivation"

She emphasized the word personally and let out a seductive laugh.

"Bitch"

Gaya simply said.

"You have a bright future ahead, stay where you are and I will make the same offer as Sadie"

Adam smiled at him and calmly said as Alex spoke to him again

"but if you dare take one more step, then you should know the consequences of ignoring our advice"

Micheal didn't like to bully and bullied but these four were trying to bully him. They just used different tones to make him stay where he is.

He calmly smiled and ordered the system to activate the teleportation spell if they tried to attack him. And then he stared back at Alex without a hint of fear on his face.

"Is there a rule saying I can't reach the 100th step?"

They were shocked to see his calm and cool demeanor. Normally, youngsters like him shower them with compliments and wouldn't dare to do something they won't like. But he not only behaved arrogantly before them but also questioned them in front of all these people. Micheal also did not suppress his voice and made sure every single one of them in the crowd heard his question. If they dared to do something against him, there was no doubt that this would bring shame to the sects but also anger the royal family and the King of Bredia.

"No, but"

Celina gritted her teeth and tried to say something but before those words could escape her mouth, he took another step forward and landed on the final 100th step. He was now standing side by side with them

Just as he did that, Alex's face completely changed as a wave of terrifying aura exploded out of his body, and a bone-chilling frost started to appear around his hands.

Adam on the other hand was shocked but he didn't become as angry as Alex. He shook his head and stood beside him since there was nothing in the rules that said someone couldn't reach the 100th step, what he did was fair.

On the other side, Sadie suddenly let out a weird moan and looked flushed red. These girls from the SilverMoon really started to freak him out with their weird looks and actions.

Right now, the crowd who were watching the scene had become very excited. None of them ever thought that someone would break the 70th step record, let alone reaching the 100th and stand alongside the four celebrity disciples.

"Holy! He really reached the top!"

"We have just witnessed history in making guys!"

"Where did he come from? What's his real name? Even in the sight of these four bid shots, he didn't back down, he earned my respect!"

"From now on, the whole kingdom would know the name Ghost!"

"But he made a mistake by offending them, Just look at Alex's expression, he looks like he's going to kill him!"

"Offending a bigshot like him would never end in a good way, I'm sure the Morning Stars will make his life harder in the next round"

Everybody was gossiping and expressing their opinions while the Sunrise sect people started to worry about his safety.

"You just made a big mistake, human"

He didn't pay attention to Gaya's warning as he was looking at the experience points. He now had enough points to reach the Body refining stage level 6 and already earned back the badass points he had spent for the Energy devourer spell.

"This trip is extremely worth the risk"

He knew by taking the last step, he would offend Alex, a big shot in this kingdom but the benefits he received were worth the risk.

"No one has ever disrespected me the way you just did, Ghost, you will pay for that!"

He radiated an extreme killing intent that would scare anybody who looked at him. Yet, Micheal almost laughed out when he noticed his killing intent towards him being turned into experience points for him. This spell was really legendary and overpowered, by making someone angry, he could now earn experience points with this spell.

Since the time he was born, Alex Fisher had been raised with great privileges by one of the most powerful families in Bredia. He was a child really blessed with the god as he had a great talent for cultivation, wealth, and an attractive body with a handsome face. This consciousness of being born like this had been rooted deep into his mind as ego and pride.

Who was this Ghost to disrespect him? A nobody without any background.

Thinking about this, he felt incredibly furious and couldn't hold his anger.

"You crossed your limit!"

Celina gritted her teeth and said angrily as Micheal tilted his head like a puppy and frowned.

"Who are you again?"

"You really want to die huh?"

Alex's expression was getting colder, and his killing intent was getting thicker as Micheal's heart was nursing with joy looking at all the experience points.

"Alex, look around you. This is Heaven's gate competition, and we're here to assess this competition. Everything you speak or do will represent the MorningStar sect. There's no rule in this competition which states that someone can't reach the top. Are you going to attack him just because he reached the top?"

Adam quickly interfered before this situation turned ugly. Although by stepping on the 100th step he tarnished their reputation, they still needed to think about their sect before doing anything that would bring shame to their sect.

"You can tell me what I can do when you defeat me within five attacks Kane"

Adam expected this reply but still, he gritted his teeth in anger.

Nevertheless, after Adam's warning, he withdrew his killing intent and decided not to kill him. Because he knew the elders would punish him for disgracing the competition and their sect reputation and that was the best-case scenario. The worst case was this incident reached the ears of the king and at that point, the king would definitely cripple his cultivation or sentence him to death.

"I let you live this time"

He said coldly and flew down to the ground standing on a flying spear with Celina.

"Boys"

Saide snorted and tapped Micheal's shoulder

"My offer is still standing, I'll even recommend the elders to make you a core disciple"

"Sorry Miss, I have already decided to join another sect"

At this point, the first round of the competition had concluded as many disciples of the sects and youngsters were jumping off of the stairway but hearing their conversation, they all paused for a moment to hear what sect he had decided to join.

"Oh?"

Sadie was surprised since there's no chance Alex would let him join the MorningStar and Adam seemed like he's not planning to take him either.

Leaving those two sects, there weren't any places that fit for his talent except her sect.

"Which sect?"

"The SunRise Sect"

His answer almost gave the crowd a heart attack. Among all the sects, he picked the worst and declined sect to join. Even if many of these youngsters couldn't get into the big sects, there were still other prestigious sects in the Kingdom but none of them wouldn't even think of joining the SunRise sect.

Sadie had a weird expression on her face as many people thought he was mad to consider the Sunrise sect.

"Are you sure about that, Ghost?"

"Yes, I gave my word and I'm not going to back away now"

Sadie saw an immovable resolution in his eyes as she sighed

"So be it, but if you change your mind, my sect gates are always open for you"

"Like we join your whorehouse"

Gaya mumbled inside his mind.

Lots of disciples from the MorningStar were staring at him when he reached the bottom and their eyes were filled with enmity and hatred towards him. Since he had just taken first place in today's competition, and offended their seniors in front of all these people, they marked him as their enemy.

"Don't expect the next round will be like this, on the battleground, only the cultivation level matters"

Someone walked up to Micheal and whispered to him as he turned back to look at a red-haired youth standing in front of him. And behind the red-haired youth, there was a bunch of youth who seemed like his minions.

"Who the f**k is he? When did you f**k with him?"

If someone wanted to hurt him, they must be at least Body Strengthening stage level 2 and none of these youngsters were at that level.

"Whatever"

He just shrugged and walked towards the Sunrise sect people who were looking at him like they had seen a demon.
