Sam looked at the two of them, who are ready to make a move one more time. He knew why they are trying to attack him. He is the most high-profile person and his exploits are known to all of them.

In the last Palace of inheritance, he kept his identity hidden for various reasons, and most important of all of them is to avoid the attention of the major powers. After all, they are all focusing on him at that moment, with him being in conflict with many of them.

At the same time, he wanted to get as much advantage over the rest of the players as he can. But this time, he didn't bother because his name was spread all over the nation. If he didn't want to make business running in this world and he was fond of this world's resources, he would have definitely kept a low profile. But he has too many things to worry about. That is why decided not to hide his identity.

Now this made him the main target. These players already had quite a hard time when Sam only used some of his abilities the previous time which means he is the one they are most worried about since he didn't have any restraints and naturally he became their common target and the first one at that.

Sam didn't care though, he looked at them and smiled once again as he took out the staff.

He stood in his place and was in a defensive position. It has been a long time since he had a proper battle, so he would satisfy all his cravings today and he even had some improvement recently.

As for why he is not being offensive, the reason is simple, both of these people have an edge in terms of cultivation.

Sam is only a Level-6 Nascent stage cultivator at the moment, but these two people are Level-7. It would have been no different if he faced the regular people, but these two are the Players. If not for the rift between the middle stage and the late stage, he would have been more confident and proactive. But that was not shown on his face.

All the opponents could see is his relaxed expression and the smug smile on his face.

Kumar is the first to make a move. He held his spear as he lunged at Sam as he exchanged a meaningful glance with Noah.

He stabbed the spear straight at Sam's heart going for the skill. At the same time, Noah threw some seeds on the ground and small red sprouts could be seen on that spot, but all of a sudden some vines came from underneath the ground near Sam's feet.

They coiled his feet completely and Sam couldn't move, as he looked at his feet he could see that the red vines are going rampant and are still growing denser and denser as they tied his legs tighter and tighter.

Sam's legs suddenly blasted out some golden flames, but to his surprise, the vines didn't burn off. As he was distracted a bit, the spear almost made contact with his heart, but Sam bent his body backward at an unnatural angle as if he doesn't even have a spine.

And to reduce the stress on his spine, he stabbed the staff into the ground and held it tightly as he placed all the burden on it.

Kumar is no joke as he changed the direction of the spear and moved downwards after stabbing without calling it back.

Sam used the staff as a support and spiritual energy burst into the vines as golden light enveloped them before they were abruptly cut into pieces by the light beams.

After releasing himself, Sam used that staff as the support and kicked the spear off with his legs and pushing the man back.

But as he was about to land, he noticed that another batch of vines appeared right at his landing spot.

Sam chuckled and with his incredible dexterity, changed his direction and somersaulted in the air before landing on the staff that was planted right into the ground. He stood there within an incredible balance and he looked at the two of them.

He was now ready to move, the only reason he waited this long is to check the disparity between them and him and he noticed that there is not much, his deficit in cultivation was covered by his physical strength and refinement. He can still beat them like before.

Sam thought of this and jumped down, wind elemental energy surrounded him as he pulled out his staff from the ground and started spinning it in his hands.

Kumar jumped at him and attacked with his spear and both of them started clashing, but Sam's tailwind blades technique which makes the tailwind of every attack into a wind blade is an irritating one. Even though the attacks are not significantly damaging, the accumulation of these small damages will make him suffer.

He understood that soon, he will be worn out if he did that. Meanwhile, Noah is not slacking, she is moving all over the battle-field as she threw seeds left and right, and various vines popped up as they tried to attack Sam.

Some of them tried to restrain him, some of them bore fruits that caused various attacks and some of them are pure physical attacks. But none of them landed.

The poisons that came from the exploding fruits have no effect on Sam and he didn't even bother to dodge them, but the rest of them are being dealt with in a peculiar way.

This time, Sam is not attacking and moving in his usual manner, rather he is moving a lot more and he is almost dancing with spinning his body for 720 degrees and 840 degrees in various postures with large strides.

His moves looked flashy, Sam who didn't usually like that is using them today because of the vines that Noah is using.

Every time he jumped like that, the tips of his legs will be completely concentrated with the wind element as wind blades flew all over and they precisely hit the vines that are coming, even if one blade couldn't deal with them, the next one is doing the job.

Sam almost looked like a wind god. His every move is causing the surrounding air to turn in the turbulent but sharp wind that is cutting down everything on its way.

The two opponents suffocated all of a sudden. They felt like even the air they are breathing is not theirs and they are only breathing it because Sam allowed them to do so.

Kumar took a step back and slapped himself until his face was red and even the skin cracked on his lip before getting back into his fight.

He knew that if he gets overwhelmed by Sam, this fight is as good as over.

But the problem is the spear technique is not as versatile as Sam's staff technique. But he was still able to block and counterattack properly.

Sam is enjoying himself. He is slowly getting the same feeling he got from the fight with Sanjay. He is becoming engrossed in the battle, as for the vines that are being a nuisance, he almost got them out of his mind.

Noah cursed under her breath, all of this is happening because the fight started too suddenly and there are no trees around.

But she knew that there are only excuses and all she would need is some more time.

As Sam is dancing with the wind for some time, Kumar suddenly changed the flow of his spiritual energy and stabbed forward. Sam deflected the strike with his staff, but as soon as they made contact spiritual energy at the point of contact started behaving weirdly and a shockwave sent Sam flying as he was already hovering mid-air.

But he didn't crash to the ground, before he could fall on the ground, a lot of vines emerged rapidly and they formed a cocoon of thorny vines and enveloped Sam.

Before he could make his move and escape, he felt the pricks of thorns on his acupoints. The thorns are trying to attack his meridian network.

But his flesh is too tough, tougher than Noah could ever imagine. Still, the plan is not a total failure because, as Sam tried to use his energy he noticed that the thorns are not just purely physical attacks, rather the spiritual energy ripple caused by their stings made it hard for him to circulate energy and his energy network within his body is not reacting fast enough to keep up with his thoughts.

Noah didn't delay anymore as she made some hand-signs as a lot of fruits started ripening on the thorny vines. The ripening is a bit slow though. It is not as fast as the previous ones, maybe because a bunch of them are ripening at the same time.

Kumar looked at her and pointed at his spear, and Noah created a small gap in her cocoon with a wave of her hand.

Kumar lunged forward and spiritual energy became turbulent as his spear glowed. As he got into a throwing position, the spiritual energy surrounding the spear manifested into a large spear image surrounding the spear in his own hands as he threw it straight towards that hole.

By this time, the fruits are also close to exploding and finishing off Sam. But at this moment, both of them frowned and Kartikeya who is watching the battle from the top also frowned as he looked at the situation. He thought that Sam is done for, but he understood that it is not that simple.
