Sacred League

"Mr. William, although I have been practicing martial arts I don't know what my power level is. Will it be possible to spar with your bodyguards?" Enzo asked.

William was surprised to hear this. He glanced at his bodyguards who stood there emotionlessly. After thinking for a moment, he agreed to the spar. He also wanted to know what qualities this young lad.

The bodyguards were both Golden level peak stage. One of the bodyguards quickly came in front of Enzo and kicked. But what followed stunned all the three of them.

The bodyguard kicked in the air cause Enzo had disappeared from the place and appeared behind the bodyguard. This was his 'Thunder Step' technique. He made a hand blade and hit the back of the neck of the man. It was a simple attack without the use of Ki Energy. Before the man could react his neck was hit and he fell down unconscious.

William and the other guard were stunned. They could not see how Enzo came behind the man.

'He is very fast. Even I could not see how he did that. This young man is impressive. Seems like he is at the Golden level peak stage too. ' William speculated.

Seeing his partner down, the other guard was enraged. They were partners in arms. How could an ordinary-looking brat defeat his partner so easily?

"Allow me" the other guard huffed.

He used the same technique as his partner and tried to kick Enzo. But this time Enzo stood there. The moment the guard's leg arrived at his chest, he stopped the leg with his hand, grabbed it with both his hands, and threw the guard a few meters away.

The guard rejoiced that Enzo did not move this time and he was sure to teach this brat a lesson but before he could realize what was happening, he had already fallen on the ground a few meters away from Enzo.

William was shocked. This time he saw it clearly. The young man just stood there and stopped the kick of a Golden level warrior with his bare hands and then threw the warrior away too.

"Mystic level!! Only a Mystic level could stop a Golden level warrior so easily" William blurted.

Enzo was silent. He was trying to figure out the comparison of power levels of the Immortal Realm and the Mortal Realm.

"Mr. William can you spar with me too. I still cannot figure out my level accurately." Enzo urged.

If other people of the city heard this they would break out in cold sweat. This was the housemaster of the Bane family and this brat was asking the old master to spar with him.

William nodded. He too wanted to have a go with Enzo. He stood up from the bench but he did not attack like his two bodyguards. He was waiting for Enzo to make a move.

Seeing William just stand there, Enzo grinned. He used 'Thunder Step' and came in front of William. They both brought out their fists and punched each other. Their fists collided. They were equally matched. They exchanged some blows but were in a stalemate.

Enzo had used his Ki Gathering Level 3 power along with Ki Energy but he still could not land a nice hit. He decided to use his 'Stone Body' for the next hit along with Ki Energy.

"Stone Fist."

Enzo punched at William's chest. William brought both his hands in front of his chest to defend but he was still pushed back. He was stunned to see the sudden increase in Enzo's strength. They were equally matched just moments before.

"Young man, it seems like in terms of strength we are equal but you surpass me in terms of speed. What movement technique is that? I could barely keep up with it" William remarked.

"Old man, are you mystic level?"

"Yes, I am Mystic level middle stage. It seems like you are at the Mystic level middle stage too."

It was only after fighting with the old man, Enzo finally figured out the comparison of the power levels.

'So Ki Gathering Level 1 is equivalent to Golden Level Early Stage. Ki Gathering Level 2 is equivalent to Golden Level Middle Stage and Level 3 is equivalent to Golden Level Peak Stage. But since cultivators use Ki Energy, they are stronger than martial warriors at the same level. '

'Although I should be at Golden Level Peak Stage according to my cultivation. But since I also practice Body Strengthening Technique and have reached 'Stone Body' I was able to fight old man William who is at Mystic Level Middle Stage.' Enzo theorized.

"Thank you for allowing me to spar with you all, Mr. William."

"Young man, you are barely 18 and you have reached Mystic Level. This is amazing. Looks like we will have another strong human in the Sacred League" William rejoiced.

"Sacred League?" Enzo had no memory of the Sacred League.

"You don't know about Sacred League? Every martial warrior knows about the Sacred League. Well anyways, the Sacred League is an organization of the most powerful martial warriors on this planet."

"Why is there such an organization? Won't they misuse their power?" Enzo asked.

"Looks like you don't know anything. A few decades ago, many portals opened at different locations on this planet. Strange creatures emerged from the portals. They killed a lot of people until they were stopped by the martial warriors. It was then, the most powerful warriors decided to make an organization that could combat these strange creatures in order to keep everyone safe. Also, they termed these creatures as demon beasts. The same power levels, as used by warriors, were given to these demon beasts for easier deployment of the warriors to fight them" William explained.

'Demon beasts??!! How can demon beasts be found in this Mortal Realm? This is really strange. Demon beats should be in the Immortal Realm. Why are they here?' Enzo was puzzled.

William continued.

"The Sacred League organizes martial arts competition to select powerful warriors who could fight against these beasts. If you could get selected your future would be boundless. Money, status, power, you would have it all. My grandson and granddaughter have been selected in the Golden Division. This has increased the status of my family in the city" William's eyes gleamed while telling this. He was very proud of his grandson and granddaughter.
