Chapter 382: Honda Sana
382 Honda Sana
A month later,
Alex finally finished his training. He could make four rank 5 arrays, which were Gathering Array, Barrier Type Array called Moonstone Barrier, an Illusion Array called Myriad Illusion Array, and the last one was surely his Simulation Room.
"System, give me the status of my UR spirits."

Because of the situation, his spirits were working nonstop. Luckily, he got many EXP cards to level them up into such a high level. In fact, he was focusing only on Leoz, Anna, and Fabio.
Charya already informed them to gather in the Sect Master's island to go to the Carageo City together. Evelyn was waiting for him at the moment to make sure he did not forget about this.
After settling all the issues in the house, he then came out of his house as he saw Evelyn on the field.
"Let's go," Alex said with a smile. He already recalled Anna to the card. As for the other spirits, he would wait until he needed to summon them.
"Yes." Evelyn nodded.
Both of them then flew toward the center island. It seemed Charya also had arrived there, so there were only Alex and Evelyn, who had yet to come.
This past month, the sect also had sent almost all disciples toward the Thine City. Of course, a few elders also came with them to quell the rest of the disciples. After all, Alex had asked them to send the disciples in a few waves, so the enemies won't know about it.
When Evelyn and Alex reached their destination, they could see that only a few elders that participated in the tournament were around. Of course, the sect master also accompanied them.
After they arrived, they started flying toward Narageo City.
The journey only took three days.
When they arrived in front of the city, the first elder suddenly came outside and greeted them. It seemed he was going first to this city so he could secure their accommodation.
They could see that because of this tournament, the city was bustling with people. They could see people in every corner, especially the colossal arena in the middle of the city.
Many people were trying to sell some merchandise. After the first elder showed them their inn, the sect master said, "All of you are free to go anywhere. The tournament is in two days, so you can cultivate or sightsee as long as you are back after two days."
When they heard that, most people decided to stroll around the city, and it was also the same for Alex and Evelyn.
"Big brother, are you going to cultivate?" Evelyn came to him and asked.
"No, I am going to stroll around and see the arena," Alex said.
"Then… then… can I go with you?" Evelyn asked timidly.
"Sure." Alex shrugged his shoulder. Before they left, sect master Xiang Bai came to him and whispered, "Tomorrow, Thine City."
Alex looked at him for a while and nodded his head, telling him that he understood. He also got information about the enemy. Nano already told him about the enemies.
It seemed there were two peak Martial Kings, and two each of 5-Star to 8-Star Martial Kings, totaling ten Martial Kings. They also had a total of fifty thousand soldiers. So, combined with the Zhou Kingdom, they got a hundred thousand Martial Masters, fifty thousand Martial Grandmasters, and five thousand Martial Lords.
They had far higher numbers than the combined force of Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect. They only got forty thousand Martial Masters, twenty thousand Martial Grandmasters, and three hundred Martial Lords.
However, Alex was sure that the Martial Kings would go first and killed as many as possible because he got notified by Nano that those people built a giant array inside this city. So, Alex decided to tour around the city to make sure what kind of array it was.
If it were a dangerous one that he could not counter, Alex would just leave this place. After all, who cared about the tournament and the system reward if it would bring him to his death.
Well, he decided to bring Evelyn around to camouflage his real objective.
"Let's go." Alex looked at Evelyn.
"Un!" Evelyn nodded happily.
Both of them started touring around the city. Alex also did not want to go toward the arena immediately. And surely he had a busy schedule over this.
Evelyn was enjoying this tour very much. She considered Alex as her brother. Although Alex was a demon when he was training her, she knew it was for her sake. After all, she could not become a 10-Star Martial Grandmaster this soon without his training.
Sadly, there was suddenly someone that hindered their fun. In front of them, a woman with a one-piece white long dress appeared out of nowhere. This woman was beautiful, especially her long orange hair.
Evelyn looked at her with hostility as she did not know who she was. However, Alex clearly recognized this woman. He remembered her standing behind Song Yu and Song Jia.
"You are…"
"I am from a second rate influence Honda House, and my name is Honda Sana. My family is the vassal of the Blackwade Clan in the Northern Continent." Sane introduced herself politely.
Alex frowned when she saw her. He thought, 'Did Senior Sister Song Yu send her here? Then for what?'
"Young Lady Song Yu informed me about this competition. Because she couldn't participate, she sent me here to help the tournament. Of course, Young Lady did not want to rig the competition. So, she sent me only to help establish the tournament."
"I see. So the one who helps with the process is you. May I ask how many people you bring?" Alex asked. He thought with the addition of her and her people, they should have a better chance of killing those people. However…
Sana shook her head and said, "I am here just to oversee the tournament so no one would cheat. So, I come here alone."
"..." Alex's expression darkened when he heard that. He looked at Evelyn, "Go to some shops first. I need to talk with her for a while."
"..." Evelyn looked at Alex in surprise. She glanced at Sana and pouted. "Fine."
"Follow me for a bit," Alex said with a serious expression.
Sana was frowning since she did not have any obligation to follow him. However, seeing how high the praise he got from Song Yu, she decided to follow him.
They were just walking around as Alex used Thought Transmission to communicate with her.
'There is a pressing matter that might concern the entire continent. Do you remember when Heavenly Sword Sect got attacked by the Zhou Kingdom together with another influence from Nilis Continent?'
'Yes. Young Lady had told me about it.'
'They are coming with a big force this time. Both of them are going to attack the tournament with fifteen Martial Kings and a hundred fifty thousand soldiers."
Sana was surprised by this, especially with fifteen Martial Kings. 'May I know the details about their power?'
'A hundred thousand Martial Masters, fifty thousand Martial Grandmasters, five thousand Martial Lords. As for the Martial Kings, five of them stem from the Zhou Kingdom, which I think only about 2-Star or 3-Star Martial Kings. But the problem is with the Martial Kings from another continent.'
Sana was enlightened, 'They have peak Martial Kings?'
'Yeah. They have two 10-Star Martial Kings and two Martial Kings for each stage ranging from 5-Star to 8-Star Martial Lords.'
Sana gasped. This was indeed troublesome since the only Martial Kings were her and four other Sect Masters. 'We need to go to the Northern Continent. At least, I will bring you there. I am sure Young Lady also wants you to be safe.'
'No. I need to win the tournament.' Alex looked at her with determination.
'That… that is foolish!' She looked at him with fierce eyes.
'I know. That's why I have another plan.'
Her expression changed from fierce to serious, 'Alright. Let me hear about it first. If you don't have a plan that could convince me, I will take you to the Northern Continent with force. I am sure Young Lady would do that too and because you are also one of the VIPs in the Blackwade Clan. I am sure Blackwade Clan does not want to let the VIP card fall to the hand of people from Nilis Continent.'
'If you can deal with the two peak Martial Kings or at least buy enough time, I can say we will definitely win this.'
'Ho… I am also a peak Martial King, almost a Martial Emperor. I should be able to deal with those two peak Martial Kings. But, if all of those Martial Kings attack me at the same time, I am afraid I will lose.'
'No, I can deal with the rest of Martial Kings. Let me tell you the plan from the start. I need to make sure whether their soldiers will fight together with them or not, that's why I am going to check it today.
'I have information telling that they had set up an Array in this city. If I can find it, then I can make sure of their intention. If their intention is to use the array first, I am sure they will send the Martial Kings first.
'I can disarm the array, and we will fight the Martial Kings first. At the same time, I will trap those hundred fifty thousand soldiers. Don't ask about the method as you will see it later.
'And with the number of the Martial Kings, we can assume that the four sect masters will deal with the Martial Kings from the Zhou Kingdom. Then you and my people will deal with the other Martial Kings.
'After that, I have managed to gather sixty thousand disciples in a neighboring city. That way, with all of our Martial Kings, we will be able to rout all of them by scaring them with the heads of their Martial Kings.
'As for the concrete strategy for that battle, I will tell you later as it will take a long time to explain.' Alex explained.
Sana had many questions inside her mind. First, she wanted to know what kind of Array the enemy made as well as Alex's method to stop those numerous soldiers. Second, she wanted to know what he meant by his people, and it seemed his people could deal with the Martial Kings. In other words, they were also Martial Kings. Third, she wanted to know the strategy for the battle with those soldiers, but she could ignore that for the time being.
'I see. Although I have many questions, I feel we need to check what kind of array they planted in this city. After that, I can see whether I will need to bring you out of this continent or not.'
'Yes, and it seems to be planted underground. And the center of that array would be beneath the arena.'
'Alright. We will go there right now. I will go with you since there might be people guarding it. And it seems you are going with that little brat to camouflage your intention? We can bring her with us,' Sana said.
'Understood.' Alex nodded his head. He then turned his head toward Evelyn who was sneakily following them. "Evelyn, come here."
