Harrison was also confused as he watched what was going on.
Of course, among others, Benedict was the most restless one. He had never expected that Knox, who
was supposed to be the sure winner, would meet a cunning opponent who had also hidden his real
strength throughout the competition.
“No, this isn’t right! There’s something fishy about this! I have never heard of such a person from the
Heaven Shadow Pavilion!” As someone who was used to plotting evil schemes, Benedict quickly
thought that there was something wrong going on. He immediately looked in the direction of Timothy
and assumed that this was probably his doing.
Meanwhile, as Knox saw that Rocky’s Spiritual Infant had also broken through to the medium stage, he
couldn’t help but grit his teeth, knowing that it wouldn’t be so easy to defeat him. Then, he pulled out
his two sabers and rushed towards Rocky in an attempt to cut him into pieces.
However, the next moment, Rocky turned into a sword shadow and just brushed past Knox at lightning
speed. At the same time, a sword radiance suddenly flashed on Knox’s body that instantly inflicted a
wound on his chest where blood started to trickle down.
This shocked everyone as Knox hadn’t been hurt yet throughout the competition. Now, they knew that
Rocky was really a legitimate contender.
“That’s just the start. You’re going to suffer by the sword, just like what you did to Ramon,” Rocky said
haughtily as he turned and gave Knox a mocking stare.
“You piece of shit! I’m going to tear you into pieces!” Knox roared, completely infuriated at Rocky’s
taunts.
Instantly, his spiritual aura soared, and his expression became more ferocious. His murderous intent
was oozing from his eyes.
“I’ll kill you! Prepare to go to hell!” Knox glared at Rocky with his bloodshot eyes. Then, he suddenly
hurled his two sabers in the air, and a saber force surged out that directly enveloped Rocky.
However, before Knox’s vicious power, Rocky didn’t even try to dodge. Instead, he used his Mystical
Dragon Sword in an attempt to destroy the approaching sword force. He let out his own spiritual power
by slashing his sword.
In a flash, the two spiritual forces collided in the air, and it turned out that they were just well matched.
Upon seeing that his full-blown attack couldn’t even hurt Rocky, Knox became more exasperated. He
had almost lost his mind and madly attacked Rocky at random, launching all of his most powerful
strikes. On the other hand, Rocky just avoided Knox’s attacks, but whenever he waved his sword, he
instantly left a wound on Knox’s body.
Soon enough, the audience saw that the battle seemed to be going one-sided. In the beginning,
everyone was confident that Knox would immediately gain the upper hand, but right now, the exact
opposite was happening.
“Just a bit more and you’re finished.” Seeing that Knox had already lost all of his composure and began
attacking aimlessly, Rocky deemed that it was time to end the fight. With that, the Mystical Dragon
Sword in his hand suddenly flew high into the sky.
The next moment, his sword burst out with dazzling spiritual power, which instantly turned into a sea of
starlight that covered the sky.
“Wow! What kind of spiritual skill is that?” “I’ve never seen it before! It looks magnanimous!”
Everyone was shocked as they gazed up in the sky.
'Wait! Isn’t that the Thousand-star Swordsmanship? How is that even possible?! Don’t tell me...' As the
thought flashed in his mind, Harrison couldn’t help but look at Timothy. Seeing the calm face of the sect
leader even though a “stranger” was about to use the Thousand-star Swordsmanship, Harrison
confirmed his hunch. ‘No wonder why he has been so calm all this time. He has made such an
unexpected move!’ Harrison thought to himself.
Just as everyone was still in a daze because of Rocky’s swordsmanship, the blinding starlight all over
the sky swiftly fell down, like sharp swords that rained over towards Knox.
At the same moment, Knox lost his sound judgment and didn’t take the Thousand-star Swordsmanship
seriously. He just ignored the star shadows that were falling on his body and focused his eyes on
Rocky.
However, as soon as he was to approach Rocky, his movements were suddenly put to a halt. The very
next moment, a barrage of sword radiance flashed all over his body.
Splat!
A sword shadow silently passed through his chest, leaving a huge hole of blood on it.
“What the hell… How did you…” Knox’s eyes widened in shock as he finally realized what had
happened to him. Obviously, he didn’t know when Rocky launched his attack.
Of course, he didn’t know that Rocky actually didn’t make a move at all. What destroyed him were the
star shadows that he deliberately ignored.
The next moment, all his life essence left him as he fell to the ground. He instantly died, filled with
overflowing regret.
Upon seeing Knox’s lifeless body on the ground, the crowd burst into an uproar. No one expected that
the mighty Knox wasn’t only defeated but also killed on the spot.
As soon as they saw the brutal death of Knox, the members of the Grand Sky Sect reacted violently.
Even Benedict’s face turned ghastly pale. He couldn’t accept that the one they had placed great hopes
on had been decimated this way.
Naturally, the warriors of the Grand Sky Sect were filled with righteous indignation, and they wanted to
rush to the stage to avenge their comrade.
However, they were immediately stopped by Benedict. After all, they all knew that this competition was
a matter of life and death. Of course, at the back of Benedict’s mind, he was already planning his
revenge. As soon as he knew who the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion was, he would
make the necessary arrangement to eliminate him.
But now that Rocky had killed Knox, he was now undoubtedly the winner of the competition.
All the people in the audience looked at Rocky with envious eyes, knowing that he would be the one to
marry the daughter of the Sword Spirit Sect’s leader, one of the most famous beauties in the entire
Ethereal Region.
Soon enough, Timothy stood to where he was seated and made an announcement. “Everyone! The
contest is now over, and we have the winner here with us. Thank you for all your support! The
representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion won the competition, and as promised, he will be
married to my only daughter and become my son-in-law. Moreover, I want to inform everyone that the
Sword Spirit Sect will hold the wedding in five days. With that, I hope that you can attend the wedding
banquet then. Again, thank you very much!” Timothy said as he declared the details of the
wedding
