The man took several steps forward as well until he was in front of Chase. He continued, "Chase Collins, take your Basalt and return where you came from. Capital City has no place for Basalt!""Who are you?"Chase asked once more."I'm the Red Phoenix's envoy, Constantine Red!"The young man was one of the two envoys of Red Phoenix, Constantine.Chase was surprised. He did not expect the people stopping them to be from Red Phoenix. Chase had never heard about anything regarding them since arriving at Capital City, but they were now right in front of him.He gave this some thought and figured there was only one possibility for them to be there. Chase decided to confront them about it."Mr. Cloves gave the order for Basalt's army to enter Capital City. Who are you to stop us? Has Red Phoneix stooped to becoming lapdogs of the Webers like White Tiger?""The Webers are useless things who aren't good enough to order us around. I don't think you're familiar with the politics in Capit
"Chase Collins, do you really want to fight with Red Phoenix over an ordinary man like Mr. Cloves?"Constantine looked angry when he realized that Chase was not kidding about this.Chase broke out with an angry laugh when he heard Constantine's words."Is Mr. Cloves just an ordinary man to you? Let me ask you this. If he's an ordinary man, what do you think you are? Mr. Cloves has done a lot for the country. He has secretly protected Bactria for so many years. "Do you think you would've been able to grow up with worries if it weren't for his protection? You wouldn't have been able to get on the path of cultivation or have the chance to grovel over Red Phoneix."Chase's words made Constantine feel ashamed.However, he quickly shook it off.He was now the Red Phoenix's envoy. He could not allow Chase to lecture him this way."Even without Mr. Cloves, there's still Mr. Chapel and Mr. Levin. Mr. Cloves isn't anyone special. Let's get straight to the point, Chase Collins. If you in
Constantine slapped the person who spoke up."Bullshit! Just kill them all! No one will ever find out if none of us say a word about it. Besides, do you really want to against Red Phoenix's orders? Don't worry, just go ahead and kill them. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens!"The Red Phoenix members no longer hesitated when they heard this. More than 30 of them attacked the Basalt members right away.However, a landslide victory did not happen for them as they expected.Twenty members of Basalt easily faced the attacks from more than 40 of them. Not only that, but Basalt began to counter-attack.Iris and Finn took the lead as two massive light blades began to form. The blades slashed down at the Red Phoenix members.What?!Constantine was standing at the front and could feel the direct force coming from the light blades.How was that possible?Constantine knew that once those light blades hit them, everyone, including him, would be finished.The ordinary Basal
Duncan watched as Basalt's army appeared one by one around him before speaking up with trepidation. Chase had no idea what to say to a martial lord who got scared by being surrounded. Was this man stupid? He even asked Chase such a stupid question.As a peak martial lord powerhouse, Duncan could leave anytime without worrying about anyone stopping him.However, Chase was right about him.Duncan was not the smartest person around. Even though he was a peak martial lord powerhouse, he was only an ordinary member of Red Phoenix. All he knew to do was cultivate and nothing else."Forget about it. Just go."Chase spoke up and released Duncan, which ended the entire fiasco.To be honest, Chase was also shocked to see what the Basalt members could do when they worked together.He had sensed the two massive light blades, and they had surpassed the power of a martial lord.Even Chase had no idea what a bunch of early-stage martial lords could do when their powers were combined. He did
"I made this decision after thinking thoroughly about it. It's easier for you to get things done this way."Don't reject this offer, Chase. It's pointless. You should know that great power comes with great responsibility. There is no one else I can think of who can bear this responsibility besides you."Gareth looked hopefully at Chase."I'll do my best!"Chase had no choice but to agree when he heard Gareth's reply.He knew that Gareth had made this decision because he had the divine Black Turtle standing behind him.Bactria had placed its hopes on him, which means that the same burden was being placed on the divine Black Turtle.Gareth did not stay long after Chase agreed to it. He left them with some more instructions before leaving the base.Chase dismissed everyone and stayed behind with the Four Heavenly Kings and both of his disciples."You heard what Mr. Cloves said just now. I hope that you won't let me and Bactria down."Chase said this to remind them to be discipli
"Just by looking at the deep trenches on the ground, it was enough for me to know that those couldn't have been left by a martial lord."Skylar told Chase when he saw Chase's anxious expression."Don't worry, I've removed all traces. No one but me knows about it, but that's only a temporary cover. A martial sovereign will discover one day that they are allowed to roam this world. "Now that your power has reached peak martial lord, you're still an ant to a martial sovereign. You should continue working hard. The world is about to change."Skylar gave Chase the warning after he was sure that Chase was not lying and left after that.Chase knew that he was too weak when it came to facing such a powerful existence. There was a flash, and he appeared inside the Dragon Vein Secret Realm. He began cultivating there.After entering the Dragon Vein Secret Realm, Chase realized that another bubble-form space had been unsealed.It must have unsealed when Chase achieved a breakthrough to st
"What do you mean?"Chase did not remember saying anything to cause such trouble."Didn't you say you wanted to challenge those on the same cultivation level as you? The cultivating world has been talking about this. They're saying that Chase Collins doesn't know better and he's challenging all of the younger generation of the cultivating world because he wants to be known as the strongest powerhouse in this generation. Any known genius in the cultivating world has traveled to Capital City just to challenge you.""What?!"Chase was shocked by this news."When did I ever say I wanted to challenge every cultivator of the younger generation?""Did you forget what you said to everyone while you were at the Sosa Clan?" Skylar reminded him.That was when Chase remembered that he had said something similar when he was there a few days ago."I was just reacting to the arrogance of those people at the Sosa Clan!" Chase tried to explain."There's no point explaining anything to me. You
"That's a good point!"While they were discussing this, things got heated up with the fight.Chase and Trek, who were fighting, had pulled away from each other.Trek was reeling from the pain of being double-punched. He was forced to face the fact that his punches were nothing in front of Chase.He wanted to say something. However, Chase had started to launch an attack on him.Chase's Ancient Wave Punch could now go up to more than 50 per move.His absolute limit was 99.However, it was not an attack that Chase could immediately launch as it required the power of a martial sovereign. Otherwise, Chase's body would give out if he launched multiple punches.More than 50 punches were enough to stress out Chase's body.His fists were beginning to hurt.However, it only piqued Chase's curiosity further as to what the limit of the Ancient Wave Punch could be for him.The situation had turned against Trek, and there was nothing he could do.He was finding it increasingly difficult
