Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave novel Chapter 401

Winning the competition against Dick was not easy for Zen. He didn't try his best during the fight and merely relied on the skills from the Heavenly Ogre Fist, so he was still fortunate to have won.

The fighting effectiveness of the demonic phantom, one of the skills of the Heavenly Ogre Fist, was so surprisingly good that even Zen was startled by it. While he had planned to use it when he entered the next round of competition, fighting with someone of Dick's ability by depending only on corporeal body and absolute power was no guarantee for victory.

As for the disciples of Drizzle Peak, while it came as a great surprise when Zen beat Dick, they were becoming numb to his victories because of his successive wins and his consistency in overthrowing their speculations.

Thus, when Zen descended from the ring, Master Wen found himself at a loss for words appropriate and sincere enough to congratulate the warrior's astounding victory. Instead of platitudes, he only laughed, grabbed Zen by the shoulders, and said, "You're clearly the lucky star of Drizzle Peak!"

Perhaps, because of Zen's efforts alone, the fate of Drizzle Peak would completely change. From the last place among the 33 Peaks, it might be able to jump to the front rank, much like Yan who, at that time, led the Lady Peak to surpass the other peaks all the way and pushed her team to the second place among the 33 Peaks.

With Zen's victories, none of the disciples of Drizzle Peak doubted his strength.

Dick was a completely different warrior from Cecil, whom Zen fought previously.

While also a powerful warrior of the Illuminating Soul Realm, Cecil was a relatively weaker one.

How did he differ from Dick?

Dick was the top disciple of Blackrock Peak.

And it was this team that ranked second among the 33 Peaks. Beating Dick in the competition was an indication that Zen had the strength and power to make the top ranking among inner disciples of the Cloud Sect.

Despite his achievements, there were still those who doubted Zen.

"Maybe Dick allowed Zen to win on purpose," one disciple proposed.

He was among those unwilling to acknowledge Zen's victory.

But as soon as he uttered the words, a large group of people cast disdainful glances at him and thought of the disciple as an idiot.

How could Dick even do that on purpose? And just supposing he lost deliberately, how could the warrior be stupid enough to lose to a disciple whose nature level was merely at the second grade?

It just was not possible. Plus, Dick was practicing the art of righteousness. It was quite unthinkable for him to deliberately let Zen beat him and accept his defeat in front of a very large audience.

Besides, Dick even used his strongest and deadly skill, the Righteousness Song, but still couldn't defeat Zen. So, it was not hard to imagine how powerful Zen was.

After several rounds of competition, the group tournament finally drew to a close. Zen participated in two other matches, one against an opponent whose nature level was at consummation grade, and the second against a disciple with the strength of the Illuminating Soul Realm. Without any suspense, both parties chose to admit defeat directly, and actually they didn't even start the fight.
