Chapitre 103: Breakthrough

The situation was as tense as it could be. Arthur slowly walked forward. It was clear that instead of heading somewhere, he was simply putting pressure on the elders stuck in the skies. 

The cultivator above Arthur was frozen in place. After the display of his strength, not a single elder of the Skyladder sect nor the visitors from other sects dared to intrude on him lightly. 

In all ways possible, this was the perfect stalemate. 

Arthur couldn't defeat all of the elders in the sky, but he could easily deal with a portion of them. On the other hand, the cultivators knew they could restrain Arthur, but they were also aware that the first few to try it would surely die. 

And then, a third party entered the scene. 

It was a normal cultivator, a disciple of a third stage. A measly core establishment cultivator with no real strength on this playing field.
