Aurora's eyes were icy, and her expression was hostile. Bill had gone from flirting to harassment, and it was making her sick. She wouldn't hesitate to teach him a lesson if he kept pushing."You're not going to be polite, huh?" he sneered. With a menacing grin, he added, "What's the matter? You want to have a long, wild night with me in bed? I'm more than happy to arrange that.""Bastard! You're asking for trouble!" she fumed, grabbing the skewers on the table and throwing them at him. The skewers flew toward his arms from both sides with a sharp whoosh. Aurora was halfway to becoming a grandmaster, so she threw them with bullet-like force.Bill merely sneered and casually waved his hand. A powerful gust of wind surged forth and deflected the skewers. They flew into a pillar 15 feet away and embedded just under an inch deep into the wood."Hmm?" Aurora frowned, and her expression turned serious.She had gone all out in her previous attack and aimed to cripple him as a punis

"Arrogant jerk! How dare a pathetic vampire like you come here and act so boldly? Do you think no one in Dragonmarsh can take you down?" Aurora fumed.Just when she was about to take action, Fenley raised his hand to stop her. He understood that vampire aristocrats were formidable opponents. Given Aurora's current strength, she stood no chance against them."I'm guessing this is your first time in Dragonmarsh, right?" Fenley's voice was calm, but his gaze was icy."So, what if it is?" Bill lifted his chin defiantly."You must be clueless. It seems your elders didn't tell you that once you're in Dragonmarsh, you must keep a low profile, or you might end up dead." Fenley slowly stood up, radiating a murderous intent.As long as the Strequans behaved in Dragonmarsh, they were generally left alone. But Bill's reckless and provocative behavior was like signing his own death warrant."End up dead?" Bill laughed mockingly. "Do you and your little group think you can take me on?""Let's

"Fenley, watch out!" Aurora and Alicia shouted in unison. They were shocked by the sudden turn of events. They hadn't expected Bill to have such a bizarre ability. After being turned into a cloud of scarlet mist with a single punch, he reformed and launched a surprise attack. Defending against such a deadly move the first time would be nearly impossible.Vampire's fangs carried a paralyzing toxin, and bites from aristocratic vampires were even more potent. Even a grandmaster martial artist would struggle to resist a single bite."Pathetic trick!" Fenley didn't bother to turn. He shook his body, and a huge divine shadow briefly flickered behind him. Suddenly, a powerful shockwave erupted. His hair stood on end, and his robe billowed out. The shockwave hurled Bill, who was attacking from behind, several feet away. He slammed into the wall and fell in a daze, looking utterly disheveled."That was a close call!" Aurora and Alicia sighed in relief after seeing what happened. They

"F-Father, you're right. I'm injured and need to rest. Please, let me go." Bill was in so much pain that he immediately begged for mercy.In Strequa, strength reigned supreme. Those who were powerful and had a strong presence earned widespread respect, and their words carried considerable influence. Simply put, they could force a person if "Mr. Wolfe, I take back what I said earlier. You're a smart man." Jeremiah kept a neutral expression and maintained his smile.Bill's eyes twitched in frustration, but he held his tongue and stepped back. He was reluctant to admit defeat against Fenley and believed he could still fight. Yet, he had no choice but to submit to Jeremiah's authority."Father, if Bill can't handle this, let me step in." George suddenly rose from his seat. His massive, towering figure was intimidating.His strength and physical prowess were superior to Bill's. In a direct confrontation, he was like an unstoppable human tank."Why does this guy look like a gorilla?"

"No way! That priest looked ordinary and didn't seem like a threat," Aurora said, puzzled.Given Fenley's skills, he was among the best in Dragonmarsh. So, she figured he had no reason to be afraid of those three Strequans."You can't judge a book by its cover. Among those three, the priest is the strongest. If you ever run into him, avoid him at all costs," Fenley warned earnestly. If he had been alone earlier, he wouldn't have been concerned. But with Aurora and Alicia by his side, he had to be cautious and couldn't fight freely.He knew Jeremiah could distract him if they fought while Bill and George captured the Marshall sisters. With the sisters' lives as leverage, the other party could turn the situation in their favor. So, Fenley decided to let the matter slide for the sisters' safety and stop pursuing the matter."Okay, I understand." Seeing how serious he was, Aurora nodded."Fenley, those people mentioned about competing in the Combat Tournament tomorrow. You might f

"Corpse?" Bill scoffed dismissively.He continued, "Father, aren't you exaggerating? Vampires are immortal. Even the most skilled martial artists from Dragonmarsh wouldn't be able to kill me."He didn't mention that the Holy Sovereign Church's holy laws, while effective against vampires, wouldn't be enough to stop him. Even Jeremiah wouldn't be able to catch him if he chose to escape. "Mr. Wolfe, your vampire gene is impressive, but you're not immortal. If you were, the Coven of Blood Eclipse wouldn't be a vassal of the Hall of Gods," Jeremiah said calmly.He continued, "Also, don't underestimate Dragonmarsh's martial artists. We've clashed with them multiple times over the years and haven't come out on top. If you keep being arrogant and complacent, you're bound to face consequences."Bill, being an inexperienced aristocrat, had no idea how dangerous Dragonmarsh could be. His earlier encounter with a group of young elites had been relatively easy by comparison.However, if they

The following day at Sacred Wyrm Summit, the spectators had already arrived as the first light of dawn began to glow in the sky.Key figures from every faction and major guild poured in, with elites and experts gathering in large numbers. At that moment, Sacred Wyrm Summit was livelier than ever.To the bigwigs, the previous Group C and B matches were mere warm-ups. The real spectacle that would shape the future was the showdown among the Group A geniuses.After all, those who made it into Group A were either young grandmasters selected by major guilds. Alternatively, they were formidable fighters who had fought to the top from thousands of elite martial artists.Hence, anyone from the 32 contestants in this round could be a future game-changer. Today's matches, which narrowed the field from 32 to eight, were about selecting the best among the geniuses.Naturally, the event captured everyone's attention. Even the big shots who usually stayed out of the limelight made their appeara

Kaden's appearance as the Sage of Sacred Wrym Summit stirred up quite a buzz. Everyone, regardless of age and gender, stood to congratulate him and saluted with respect.Even though Sacred Wrym Summit rarely got involved in the martial world affairs, it held a revered place among martial artists. Regardless of Kaden's past, wearing the Sage's robe commanded respect."It's an honor to have you all here at Sacred Wrym Summit," Kaden said, facing the crowd with a smile and a respectful gesture. "If my hospitality falls short in any way, I ask for your understanding." His demeanor was calm and poised, without a trace of arrogance."Not at all! Sacred Wrym Summit is a paradise. It's an honor just to be here.""I've heard a lot about you, Sage Foyer. Seeing you in person confirms everything I've heard.""The Combat Tournament at Sacred Wrym Summit is a fantastic opportunity for us to show off our skills. You really know how to set the stage."The compliments came pouring in as everyo

With a resounding bang, the golden light erupted with a burst of terrifying energy wave. In an instant, the earth trembled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.Dustin and his sword were sent flying several yards. After landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally steadying himself.He looked up and saw that Abigail's body was now covered in a layer of golden armor, though he couldn't tell when it had happened. The armor glowed brightly, and it made her look imposing and striking.It was clearly a divine artifact.The Mystic Arts Order had been around for centuries, with deep roots and countless treasures. As the Grand Sorceress, Abigail would obviously have several divine artifacts for protection.Dustin wasn't surprised, but the armor's counterforce caught him off guard. Not only did it protect her, but it also had offensive capabilities.When his sword struck the armor earlier, the blow didn't leave a scratch. Instead, the armor absorbed the hit and sent the for

Dustin raised his hand as the black feathers rained down on him. A white energy shield flared into existence to form a wall before him.The feathers slammed into the shield and sent ripples across its surface but failed to break through. However, the black flames on the feathers spread across the shield and burned through its energy at a visible pace. In the blink of an eye, the once impenetrable barrier cracked open and left a gaping hole.Dustin couldn't hide his surprise. His mystical pure energy was far stronger than the average grandmaster's internal energy in offense and defense. It was meant to be impenetrable. He hadn't anticipated it couldn't hold up against Abigail's phoenix flame.Seeing the raw strength of her bloodline, he knew he couldn't afford to take any chances. As the black flames spread, he swiftly waved his hand to summon a furious gust of wind that sent the feathers and flames flying."Glaring Wings!" Abigail wasn't done yet. She quickly formed hand seals and

Abigail moved with lightning speed, and her figure weaved in and out like a shadow. Her swift movements left a blur of afterimages that was hard for anyone watching to keep up.On the contrary, Dustin stood still without making any movement."Fallen Fist!"After closing in, she unleashed a flurry of strikes—dozens of black palm shadows slamming toward his body, and each one was like a bullet aimed at its target.Abigail practiced a unique martial art, and it was imbued with voodoo-like properties that could kill anyone who made contact with her. But Dustin's body was immune to all poisons, so it was a perfect counter to her deadly attack.As the shadow palms closed in, he remained unshaken and thrust his palm forward.A fierce gust of wind surged and ripped through the air with unrelenting force. It collided with the black palm shadows.Abigail's black palm shadows exploded on impact and disintegrated into thick clouds of dark mist that quickly spread. Within moments, the mist e

The whole arena suddenly fell dead silent. Everyone stared blankly, and not a soul dared to breathe. Alloy shot to his feet in the main spectator seats, and his face was tense with worry. Yet, he didn't dare make a sound. He feared it might startle Glenn into making a mistake that could cost Fenley's life.After all, Fenley represented the future of the Celestial Alliance. Alloy had invested all his effort into Fenley, and he provided him with endless resources. If Fenley were to die in the match, it would deal a devastating blow to the entire guild.While Alloy was gripped with worry, Cyrus and Penelope cheered silently. They secretly hoped Glenn's sword would strike Fenley. If that happened, the Celestial Alliance would take at least a decade to regain its former glory.Fenley's body stiffened as he stared at the Fang Master hovering inches from him. A shiver ran through his spine as goosebumps prickled his skin. Sweat trickled down his face, and each drop hit the ground with a

"Glenn had only seven swords in the past. I didn't expect that in just one year, two more divine swords would recognize him as their master. This punk is much better than I was back then," Cyrus remarked. He stroked his chin with a look of surprise and approval. He had always believed in Glenn's potential, but Glenn's performance had still exceeded his expectations.After all, the more swords Glenn wielded, the stronger he became. He had already topped the Legendary List with just seven swords. Now, with nine, his strength had grown even more overwhelming."He truly is the Chosen One." Even Kaden couldn't help but sigh.The nine divine swords recognized their master and responded with ease. Glenn's talent and cultivation were leagues ahead of his peers.Every generation brought forth new talent, and the old had no choice but to step aside for the new generation. Compared to their time, today's youth were on another level—monsters in their own right."Now, this is going to be int

Compared to the second green sword, Glenn's third sword was even more powerful. As it descended, accompanied by the fury of a fire dragon, it carried the destructive force of a world-shattering storm.Fenley, whose energy flow was disrupted earlier, watched the fiery red long sword streak toward like a falling meteor. His heart raced and was gripped by a sudden sense of impending doom.With a roar, he risked the backlash effect and unleashed a powerful surge of internal energy. The ethereal divine spirit behind him instantly transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms. This was the complete form of the Four Elements of God's Technique.At that instant, he threw everything he had into the fight. He controlled the spirit to slam its giant arms into the flaming sword. With a loud explosion, the sword tore through the spirit's palms and continued its unyielding path toward Fenley. But its speed had slowed slightly.Without hesitation, he controlled the spirit to strike ag

When the spectators heard the match was about to begin, the excitement reached a fever pitch. Half of them cheered for Fenley while the other half chanted Glenn's name. Both were the Chosen Ones, and their popularity was undeniable. Everyone had been waiting for their face-off in the battle ring.Though Fenley ranked slightly below Glenn on the Legendary List, his fame and influence as the successor to the Celestial Alliance's guildmaster outshined Glenn's. Ultimately, the question of who was stronger could only be answered in the ring."I've been waiting for this day, Glenn." Fenley stared at him intently. His voice was powerful and commanding. He continued, "Others say I'm not your equal, but I refuse to believe it. Today, we'll find out whether your sword is faster or if my Four Elements of God's Technique is superior.""The moment you said that, you've already lost. Your doubt shows you lack the confidence to defeat me," Glenn replied calmly. If this were a fight-to-the-deat

After the quarterfinals, it was time for a break. With noon approaching, contestants and spectators needed food and water to recharge. An hour later, the venue was buzzing with excitement again as Oron stepped onto the battle ring. He was accompanied by a Sacred Wrym Summit disciple, who carried a black box filled with numbered balls."It's almost time. I'd like to invite the top four contestants to the ring to draw lots," Oron announced as he surveyed the crowd.Amidst a wave of enthusiastic applause, four figures ascended the battle ring one after another. First in line was Glenn, with Fenley right behind him, followed by Abigail and Dustin."Sir, we're in the semifinals. Good luck!" Abigail winked playfully at Dustin as she stepped into the ring."You too," he replied with a smile.Given Abigail's strength, her odds against Glenn were slim. However, if she faced Fenley, she would have a solid chance at victory.After all, Fenley had only just broken through to the ultimate g

"Who the heck is this kid?" Oron glanced at his trembling hands and felt a chill run down his spine. He failed to gain the upper hand in the earlier clash with Dustin and suffered an unexpected setback. He was already an ultimate grandmaster, with a cultivation and mastery of the Glow Incantation that surpassed Caleb's. By all accounts, subduing a younger opponent should have been a piece of cake.But that exchange just now had brought him to a stark realization—Dustin had been holding back this whole time and hadn't used his full strength. Otherwise, Caleb wouldn't have lasted this long.The realization unsettled Oron. There were always extraordinary talents out there, but the potential Dustin had displayed was genuinely terrifying. To put it plainly, he was a beast on the same level as Glenn."What happened? Why did the judge step in?""Can't you see? Caleb has already lost. If the judge hadn't stepped in, that sword would have killed him or left him severely injured.""Exactl
