Martial Arts System-Chapter 367 - Old Enemy

367 Old Enemy.

''Look, dolphins!'' Azura exclaimed and pointed at the sea, where outlines of swimming dolphins could be seen.

In front of her was a safety rail, which stopped anyone from falling down.

''Mmm…'' Ichiro raised his sunglasses slightly and managed to see the swimming figures in the sea from the gaps of the rail.

His tall figure was currently lying on a beach chair.

After suffering from the cold, he could finally enjoy the sun and heat, and that's what he exactly planned to do.

''Brother, there are seats available!'' Azura turned her head towards the sound and saw dozens of figures; most of them were alone, but a few were with a middle-aged person.

'I wonder, are they all Contenders of the Test…' She thought, but then remembered the sound and saw a young woman in her 16s dragging a young man behind him.

The young woman looked lovely with her sundress and long auburn hair. She had a silly grin on her face as she dragged the young man behind her.

The young man sighed deeply. He had short brown hair with a t-shirt and shorts, which left his muscular arms and strong-looking legs visible.

''Excuse me, are those seats available?'' The young woman asked cheerfully and pointed at the three other beach chairs next to Ichiro.

The seat next to Ichiro was occupied with a pink bag that belonged to Azura, but the other two weren't.

''Yes,'' Azura replied and narrowed her eyes as she watched the young woman walking past her and sitting on the seat that was right next to Azura's.

The young man sighed and sat next to the young woman.

''Are you two part of the Test?!'' The young woman asked cheerfully.

''Sis, stop it.'' The young man sighed and covered his face out of embarrassment.

''I am just curious!'' The young woman grinned and pointed at herself, ''My name is Mariah, and I am one of the Contenders!''

''My name is Azura…'' Azura glanced at her boyfriend, who looked like he was asleep, ''I am not one of the Contenders.''

Mariah tilted her head, ''Then how did you enter the ship?''

Azura pointed at the black-haired youth, ''My BOYFRIEND is a Contender.''

Mariah's eyebrow twitched as she saw Azura putting a lot of importance on the word boyfriend.

''I see.'' She looked at the young man, who hadn't moved even an inch, ''Is he asleep?''

''No.'' Suddenly, Ichiro spoke.

''Oh, nice to meet you; my name is Mariah!'' She put her hand forwards as a handshake.

Azura narrowed her eyes.

''…'' Ichiro stayed silent.

''U-Umm…'' Mariah awkwardly pulled her hand back, ''That's not nice!''

''Sis, please stop…'' The young man looked exhausted and tried to stop her sister.

Azura sat down on her seat and innocently smiled towards Mariah while grabbing Ichiro's hand.

''Anyway…'' Mariah's eyebrow twitched at Azura's antics, ''Azura, right?''

Azura nodded.

''Why did you come here? To be a burden to your boyfriend?'' She smiled innocently, but a scary look was in her eyes.

Azura's cheek twitched, ''Where are you from?''

''Lyrio,'' Mariah replied and frowned, wondering why she wanted to know that.

''Oh.'' Azura covered her mouth and innocently smiled, ''Shit Continent.''

''Heh?!'' Mariah exclaimed, ''You bitch!''

''Heh.'' Azura innocently smiled and closed her eyes, while Mariah almost attacked her but was stopped by her brother.

''Calm down!'' He shouted and managed to calm down his sister's rage.

''Grrr…'' Mariah growled and glared at Azura, who was innocently smiling but looked very attractive, causing many young men to take sneaky glimpses at her.

She was also a very lovely individual, but in front of Azura, she was overshadowed.

She pouted and looked away, annoyance still visible on her cute features.

''We will arrive at the island in ten hours, can't you behave?'' Her brother, with the name of Markah, asked.

''B-But, it was her fault!'' Mariah's cheeks inflated, and her face became redder.

Azura's smile was getting wider, which made her even angrier.

For the next several hours, the ship moved at a quick pace, and the Island of Grandmaster's was getting closer.

''We are here,'' Markah said and stood up from the chair; in the distance, he saw a massive island with large mountains in the center of the island.

Mariah stood up with excitement and started hopping cheerfully, ''Finally!'' She turned around and glared at Azura.

Their battle of words lasted for the entire trip, and they became archenemies!

''Hubby, we are here.'' Azura shook Ichiro awake.

''Mmm…'' Ichiro took away his sunglasses and rubbed his eyes.

Once he opened his eyes, he saw a majestic island in the distance.

He slowly stood up from the chair and stopped in front of the safety rail.

'He is strong!' Markah thought as he saw Ichiro moving, but that alone gave him invisible pressure that words couldn't describe.

He wasn't the only one who felt it. Dozens of eyes were locked on Ichiro as he was simply standing with the wind blowing right at his face.

''You are strong!'' When others were thinking about it inside their mind, Mariah blurted it out.

''Of course, he will win!'' Azura proudly proclaimed.

''Win? Haha.'' Suddenly, laughter came from the crowd of young men.

Azura glared at the voice and widened her eyes in shock, ''What are you doing here?''

Ichiro recognized the voice but didn't turn his head towards him, ''I thought you went hiding.''

''Avery!'' His voice made the sea restless.

From the crowd of young men and women, a blond-haired figure appeared.

He had a mask covering most of his face, but only a tiny portion of his face was visible.

Avery's blond hair was still silky and very beautiful, but his face underneath the mask could be said to be an abomination.

''Missed me?'' Avery said mockingly, and his blond hair started fluttering behind him as an invisible aura appeared around him.

Everyone had to take a step back around him after Avery's aura increased in intensity.

Azura looked back and forth between Ichiro and Avery, wondering what was going to happen!

She knows her boyfriend very well, and she was afraid that he would kill Avery and get disqualified!
