Against The Gods With An Anime System

Over the next two days, Mesa kept winning the rest of his eleven matches after another in the most OP way possible. Every match he fought didn't last more than a minute. He had even managed to attract the attention from the entire audience. Even those who originally came to see the disciples of the Four Major Sects fight, started flocking towards Mesa's matches to see how fast and in what weird way he would win again.

"Blue Wind Imperial Family's competing disciple Mesa Uchiha, second round of group stages, complete victory in all fifteen matches, directly advances to tomorrow's elimination rounds!"

After the second round of group stages, the sect's disciples were directly ranked out using the number of wins. Among them, the top 32 disciples in the rankings would proceed to the last elimination round on the main Sword Discourse Arena tomorrow. Disciples below the 100th rank, as well as rank 33 to 100, would be transferred to different secondary arenas and progress to the ranking battles between their ranks.

The elimination round, was the last stage of the Ranking Tournament, as well as the core existence of the entire Ranking Tournament. Because, among over 1500 participating disciples, these were the strongest 32 people! Who represented the pinnacle of the Blue Wind Empire's younger generation's strength! Even though the elimination round only had 32 people, it would last for five days, longer than any round of group stage matches. The arena would also no longer be the small Sword Discourse Arenas, and would instead be the enormous central Main Sword Discourse Arena.

The next morning, as the sky was just barely lighting up, the Sword Discourse Arena in the Heavenly Sword Villa was already clamoring. The final event of Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, the Round of 32, had finally begun!

An enormous profound stone was temporarily erected in the center of the Main Sword Discourse Arena, and the names of the 32 people who had entered the Round of 32, as well as the sect they belonged two were displayed on top. Amongst these 32 names, the 12 disciples from the Four Major Sects were, unsurprisingly, all present.

"Participating disciples of the Round of 32, please come to the stage and draw the lot for battle order!" There was only one judge during the entire Round of 32, and that would be Ling Wugou. Following Ling Wugou's order, 32 people came up one by one and drew their battle number.

Returning to the group, Cang Yue came up to him and asked him what his number was: "Mesa, what number did you pull?"

"I am number 1." Said Mesa as he showed them the plate that had a big number '1' on it. Which would mean that in today's match, he would fight.

"Mesa Uchiha, it is already very, very impressive of you to be able to enter the Round of 32." Qin Wushang said: "However, in the Round of 32, every single opponent would be extraordinary. Especially the Four Major Sect's disciples. You have never met them before and simply do not know their dreadfulness at all. So, in today's matches, if you feel that you cannot win, it is not shameful at all to surrender early. You have already created a miracle that has shocked the entire audience, so you definitely should not try to flaunt yourself. Otherwise, it would be bad if you, by any chance, receive malicious injuries from the opponent. It is already enough for you to reach here in this year's ranking tournament. The next ranking tournament, would be your true stage."

"Sure. Don't worry, everything will be fine." Said Mesa. While he was listening to Qin Wushang, Mesa did this just as a show of respect to him. In fact, every word Qin Wushang said entered one ear and just as quickly left through the other, never once reaching his brain.

After all the 32 remaining participants selected their numbers, their battle order appeared on the Profound Stone.

Mesa would fight Xiao Nan during the first match of the Round of 32.

"The battle order of the thirty-two contestants has been decided and the first match shall begin soon. The contestants are: Blue Wind Imperial Family's Mesa Uchiha and Xiao Sect's Xiao Nan. Please prepare yourself and come onto the arena within 60 seconds!"

"Well, that's my que. I'll be back in a minute. See you guys soon." Said Mesa as he leisurely walked to the arena.

Back at the Xiao Sect seating area, Xiao Nan was preparing himself to come up to the arena.

"Nan'er, remember who your opponent is and don't be complacent. He has shown himself to be nothing like everyone thought he was, so be careful. And remember what Grandfather always says, never underestimate your opponent, no matter who they are." Xiao Wuji reminded Xiao Nan.

"Yes, Grandfather." Looking at Mesa Uchiha who was already on stage, Xiao Nan stood up, breathed in slightly and lifted himself high, jumping across several tens of meters before landing gently on the Sword Discourse Arena, standing face to face with Mesa Uchiha.

'Let us hope he doesn't use that hammer during this match. If he does, Nan'er has already lost.' Thought Xiao Wuji as he looked at the match and then looked over to the place where the hammer was lying in the dirt.

'What is that hammer? Not only will it come to that Mesa Uchiha fellow when he calls for it, but it's been impossible for anyone else to lift it up. Nobody could even move the hammer from its spot, no matter how much effort people put in.' Thought Xiao Wuji as he looked at Mjolnir. Over the past few days, ever since Mesa summoned it, many people have tried to take it, seeing as how Mesa always leaves it on the ground and doesn't even bother to pick it. But no matter how much effort people put in or how many people try to lift it up at the same time, it wouldn't budge. And yet, when Mesa went to pick it up, it looked like it weighed next to nothing in his hands.

On stage, Xiao Nan had already taken out his weapon. it was a jade sword that gave off a cool glow. The jade sword was called Wind Spirit Sword and it was an Earth Profound Weapon. With sword in hand, he signaled towards Mesa Uchiha: "Xiao Sect Sword Sect's disciple Xiao Nan, please guide me!"

Mesa, on the other hand, didn't take out a weapon or summoned Mjolnir to his hand, much to Xiao Nan's relief. Instead he stood there, with his hands behind his back, smiling at Xiao Nan and said: "Likewise, Elder Ling, there's no need to wait 60 seconds. You can start the match right now."

"Good!" Ling Wugou nodded: "Round of 32, 1st Match —— Begin!"

Once Ling Wugou started the match, everyone became silent and focused on the match at hand. The thirty elders who had been refereeing during the previous days, all surrounded the arena where Mesa and Xiao Nan would fight each other and surrounded it with a barrier.

As the match started, neither Mesa nor Xiao Nan moved. Both wanted to see what move the other would make first.

"Receive my attack… Extreme Wind Slash!!" Yelled out Xiao as the sword in his hands pointed forward, and instantly, all the storm that had been surrounding him turned into the silhouette of several swords, causing several sharp wind blades, to blow towards Mesa Uchiha. Wherever the wind went, it tore apart the sturdy Sword Discourse Arena into pieces.

Mesa, whilst his hands were behind his back, casually dodged the attack. And pretty soon, Xiao Nan was right in front of Mesa and, with his sword coated in Wind Profound Energy, slashed at him, yet he couldn't hit him no matter what. Every sword slash and stab was easily dodged by Mesa.

Before he could comprehend how Mesa was able to dodge him like that, he gathered his profound strength onto his feet and jumped several tens of meters into the air to avoid the storm. He stopped at the highest point in midair, and suddenly, rounds and rounds of ripple-like water surrounded him. Behind him, a giant green colored eagle silhouette appeared and proudly spread its wings to fly.

Xiao Nan flew down. As he was flying, his whole body merged with the silhouette of the giant green eagle, and he seemed like descending mighty eagle. He pointed his sword forward. While bringing along an incomparably sharp aura, he thrusted towards Mesa's c.h.e.s.t. The sword was extremely sharp, and the air seemed to have been split apart like waves.

And just when he thought he'd hit him, Mesa teleported out of there to the other side of the arena. To those on the outside it looked like he was moving at mind-bogglingly great speed, that he was able to dodge him. Looking at the place where Xiao Nan came down, the arena was in tatters.

"Wind element huh. I'm impressed with the way you're using it." Said Mesa casually to Xiao Nan.

"Of course! The Xiao Sect is unparalleled in the use of Wind Profound Energy! So, are you going to dodge or are you gonna fight!" Said Xiao Nan who was frustrated at Mesa, who so casually dodged all his moves. He didn't even break a sweat, as if all this was nothing but a walk in the park for him.

Mesa in response, smiled at him and held his right hand above his hand and said: "Alright, I'll fight. I too know a technique that uses Wind Profound Energy. How's about you try to catch it."

Right after he said that, an enormous amount of Wind Profound Energy is gathered on top of his hand. To everyone's surprise who were watching, Mesa shaped all the Wind Profound Energy into a giant ball that was surrounded by a four pointed star, that spun around the Wind Profound Energy ball at super speed. After Mesa was done gathering the Wind Profound Energy, he had created a ball, made of pure Wind Profound Energy, on top his hand, that was at least three times bigger than him. And this ball had a four pointed star, spinning around it at super speed and making an incredibly loud noise. He had managed to gather so much Wind Profound Energy in it, that a minor storm was blowing across the Mighty Heavenly Sword Villa. Xiao Nan was struck with horror, as he watched Mesa gather more Wind Profound Energy in one spot than he had ever seen before in his life. Not just him, everyone was struck with horror at the behemoth of Wind Profound Energy that Mesa managed to create.

"Alright Xiao Nan! You wanted me to fight back! Well, take this!.....WIND STYLE: RASENSHURIKEN" Yelled out Mesa as he threw the Rasenshuriken towards Xiao Nan.

"I GIVE UP!!" Screamed Xiao Nan in fear as he saw the Rasenshuriken approach him at high speed. From the moment that Mesa threw the Rasenshuriken, Lin Wugou, the thirty elders, Ling Yuefeng and even Ling Kun all stepped up, in order to intercept Mesa's attack that was hurtling towards Xiao Nan. To their most pleasant surprise, Mesa threw his hands up and the Rasenshuriken changed direction and flew straight up into the air. On the way there, it ripped through the barrier around the arena like a hot knife through butter and it flew so high up that nobody could see it. A few moments later, an explosion occurred in the sky and everyone could a massive ball of the Wind Profound Energy that Mesa threw up in the air. A second later, hurricane like winds battered the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region and everyone held to hold on for dear life, in order not to get swept away. After the winds died down, what was left was chaos. The audience were nearly all swept away, only those who were strong managed to hold on. On the arena, Xiao Nan was blown away from the arena, if it wasn't for the help of his grandfather Xiao Wuji, he would have probably been away for miles. Only Mesa was still standing in the same spot, with that same smile he had when he first entered it. Everyone who looked at him, felt an indescribable feeling of horror and were absolutely certain he wasn't a mere level 5 Spirit Profound Realm practitioner.

"I won." Said Mesa very nonchalantly, as if the chaos that he had caused just now had nothing to do with him.

"M-M-Mesa Uchiha wins." Ling Wugou just managed to stammer out. Walking down the arena in a truly calm way, Mesa walks back to the Blue Wind Imperial Family group. Along the way everyone was watching him with terror in their eyes and one thing on their minds: 'WHERE THE F.U.C.K DID THE IMPERIAL FAMILY FIND THIS MONSTER?!?!'

Mesa's truly spectacular performance had even managed to make the, normally stoic and emotionless, Frozen Cloud Asgard disciples and spectators go in absolute shock at what he just did.

Xia Qingyue, Chu Yuechan and Cang Yue, who knew Mesa the best, were completely bewildered at his performance just now and all had the same thought in mind: 'I knew he was a monster but this is just ridiculous!!'

Fen Juecheng who was also watching the match and hoping that Xiao Nan would humiliate him, was terrified after the performance he saw just now: 'HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO KILL THIS MONSTER AFTER HE DID ALL THAT?!?!'
