Chapter 239: 239: True Power of Overseer?

With his finger pointed to the haughty young man, he shouted, "What are you trying to say, young man?! Are you challenging me with that tone of yours?!"

The opportunity was perfect as Old Dan smiled in his devious heart. The bait was cast and the fish looked at it with interest.

(If he said yes, then plucking his life would be as easy as plucking a fruit from a tree) Old Dan furrowed his eyebrows albeit the face he was making was different from his intention.

(If he said no, then I can annul his victory and with a little play of words even Sophia from the Treas family would agree! If silence is his answer then I will take that as a yes! Choose! Choose! Choose! HAHAHA!).

Lyon's smile vanished from his face before furrowing his eyebrows. This sudden development was not something he had prepared an answer for. (So this is what a real cunning man capable of, twisting words and make the truth his own creation).

"Hahahaha! You surely kick the hot iron plate this time!"

Faust was ecstatic seeing his demeanor lessen while Chloe finally took an interest in something in the arena for a change.

"I don't think of men who farted in the midst of battle has any weight in their opinions."

Lyon simply brushed him off with a shrug, his eyes didn't even meet as he kept his focus on the old man on top of the balcony.

Faust almost exploded his own heart with how quick the blood inside him surge. He felt numb on his toes and his fingers before he vomited blood to everyone's spectacle. "Y-You!"

"S-senior are you alright?" asked Fue Hufei with a concerned look in her eyes.

"Get off me! I don't need your help!" shouted Faust before he pushed her away and strugglingly getting up on his feet.

"Ah... Senior."

Fue looked dejected but nevertheless, she lowered her head.

Ignoring the two of them, Lyon suddenly put his hand at the back of his head as he looked up with a smile on his face. "Challenge you? If I'm allowed to choose, I would of course rather not fight an old man, instead, I would fight the lady who gave me her VVIP ring or whatever that was to get to know her better."

(Oh! You've done it, boy! Not only did you bite the bait, you actually strangling yourself with the string!).

Old Dan suddenly stood up before shouting, "Stop this insolence of yours at once! You must face the punishment for disrespecting Miss Sophia!"

"Don't worry miss! I will straighten the young brat personally!"

The old man leaped after he cupped his hands toward her not waiting a moment for her to answer.

His presence immediately suffocated the entire arena as the lesser cultivation levels instantly dropped on their knees.

"It-it's heavy!"

"Gah, it's hard to breathe for some reason!"

"This?! is this the true power of an overseer?!"

One by one all of them tumbled down, leaving only a few cultivators standing.

Jugen was palpitating before he had one knee supporting him from dropping to the ground. He took a chunk of his saliva into his throat as his hands shook heavily. It wasn't long before he was on all four then finally give in.

Though he couldn't move his body he could see the rest of his team already tumbling down and some of them even passed out. However, one woman was standing albeit her knees were a bit bent.

"C-captain, hang...on!"

"T-that much I know!

Luna was standing on with her bloodline activated, but even then it was still a struggle and the pressure was getting heavier and heavier.

"H-hey, that woman is amazing!"

"She is actually on par with the rest of the aces, well since Faust was already caught off guard we couldn't see how well he handle the pressure.

The crowd didn't see the bigger picture of the overseer's action. They just follow through and leave the rest to them, only a few cultivators with higher status could understand what's going on. Alas, they couldn't risk it to offend someone so powerful. The only one that could change this was the woman sitting at the top ladder of big shots.

Sophia only put on a smile and seemed to enjoy the show Old Dan's put on. No one understood what she was thinking and could only guess.

(Hmm, there are a lot of promising youth here. Hm?! Van is getting up!). Old Dan furrowed his eyebrows as he deepened his pressure.

The aces including Luna instantly dropped to the ground with a groan. While inside the rubble, Van couldn't move an inch of his body. The huge pressure and the heavy rubble proved too much for him to handle as he could only curse inside his heart. (You damn old bandit! You broke through and leap levels didn't you!).

Old Dan smiled after he saw the rubble on the side of the arena. (With that beastmaster gone, no one can stop me for annulling their victories). He instinctively took a short glance at Sophia before he laughed inwardly at her surprised face. (Hahaha! I know my plan is perfect, besides, this would also benefit you greatly! You will receive back all of your lost fortunes!).

"Now then, time to teach you some respect (And by that I mean crippling you!), hmm?!"

He was surprised that Lyon was still holding on albeit one of his knees already dropped to the ground.

"Oi-oi-oi! Look over there, that guy is still holding on."

"Holy shit! you're right."

Jugen who saw his idol still manage to hold on muttered, "...on....do....it!"

"Ly....on," Luna tried to lift her hand only to drop a few moments later.

Argeon who watched the entire thing immediately turned around and cupped his hand toward Sophia. "Overseer, please, stop whatever Overseer Dan is doing!"

However, despite his pleading, Sophia acted as if she didn't hear him and watch the arena with her hand holding up her chin.

"Hmph! I must admit, you are one talented brat, shame you are not of my kin, otherwise, I would groom you to a height that even emperor dream of."

"Emperor with one thousand beautiful wives then we're talking."

Old Dan's pupils were immediately shrunken as his mouth went agape. Words couldn't come out of his throat as he saw Lyon nonchalantly stood before him.
