"You do make sense, but I think you're being a bit rash. Chris' skills and talents might sit at the peak, but there are those among the seven who can compete with him."After saying that, the person pointed at a handsome man clad in a white robe."Edward from the Nimbus Alliance. All of you should know him right? He's the brother of the top chosen disciple from the Nimbus Alliance! I heard that he's not that far away from his brother of terms of skills. It's just that his brother is a few years older and has been training for longer."If he has enough time, Edward will be able to catch up. I heard from others that Edward should be among the top five in the Nimbus Alliance. Even if Chris is in the top three, those are two different clans."They're from different worlds as well. The Purple Cloud Pavilion is an eighth-grade clan from White Marsh Continent, while the Nimbus Alliance is an eighth-grade clan from Chaos Continent. Chaos Continent is a bit stronger than White Marsh Contine
Many wandering warriors had managed to get this far precisely because they were ruthless enough to charge forward without a care for their lives. They took up a majority of the slaughter gambit participants.There were already seven participants registered for this slaughter gambit. Other than the three from major clans, the others were all wandering warriors who did not care about their lives!All the warriors in the viewing area felt that those four had no chance of winning! If they really had the skill, they would have already become disciples of major clans. There would be no need for them to frantically fight for resources for themselves. The clans would have provided everything!"It's already six hours, why is it not full yet?""You must be new. It's only been six hours. I waited for a whole day before ten people signed up."It was too difficult, and it was also the one that needed the most participants out of the three events. So, the time between slaughter gambits was quit
After the man said that, the other warriors started to pile on. They started to describe Hestia Continent's warriors as cowards and pieces of trash!More and more nasty insults started to get thrown at the warriors of Hestia Continent. There were a lot of spectators, and a lot of the warriors from Hestia Continent were fuming in anger. They wanted to rush forward and fight those warriors that insulted Hestia Continent.However, they knew that they would get struck by lightning if they tried. They would just end up being burnt to a crisp. They could not attack physically and verbally. After all, the facts were against them. Quite a few warriors from Hestia Continent started to think about leaving.At the end of the day , they could not fight, nor could they argue. They were forced to sit down and be humiliated. At that moment, two names suddenly appeared on the scroll, as well as where those names were from.The burly man looked at the scroll and muttered, "Fane? Hestia Continent?"
Looking at Fane's straightened back, Trevor suddenly felt like he was incredibly weak. Even an alchemist who was a wandering warrior was more confident than he was. He was too focused on worrying about everything. He did not look like a chosen disciple from an eighth-grade clan at all.Thinking about that, he puffed up his chest and started to radiate confidence. It was like he had suddenly turned into the strongest chosen disciple of the Pentagram Clan. However, his confidence did not last long.When the two of them entered the waiting area, Trevor immediately saw Chris. His confident expression froze. The worry, pain, and fear that he had suppressed suddenly resurfaced!Chris was actually participating as well. Chris would be going into an isolated space with him and fighting it out in a battle royale?They were both warriors from White Marsh Continent, so he naturally knew who Chris was. The Purple Cloud Pavilion was even stronger than the Pentagram Clan, and Chris ranked in thi
Chris' face reddened in anger as he narrowed his eyes and glared at Fane viciously. Ever since he became a chosen disciple, he had never been spoken to like that. The feeling of his power being ignored caused Chris incredible fury."Do you know who I am? It looks like you want to die a horrible death."Fane raised his eyebrow in exasperation, saying calmly, "I don't care who you are. You can be whoever you want, but I just don't care. You shouldn't be trying to cause me trouble anyway!"People like you disgust me. Since you said that, you must be someone important from your continent. No one can ever offend you, which is why you said all of that. However, you're nothing but air in my eyes!"Fane absolutely hated double standards where only one side was allowed to say anything. It had clearly been Chris who was looking for trouble. Fane had merely spoken back, and Chris felt like he was being challenged.Fane had seen a lot. Every time he met someone like that, Fane would be full o
Furthermore, the clothes Fane was wearing were about the same as those wandering warriors in the viewing area. Normally, disciples of high-grade clans would place great importance on their standing. They would be very particular about how they dressed. There was no way they would casually wear the clothes of wandering warriors.That was why David even suspected that Fane might be a wandering warrior. If Fane really was a wandering warrior from Hestia Continent, his earlier words would be even more hilarious.David could tell that the others present were smart. The others had glints in their eyes. Fane raised an eyebrow, feeling everyone's gaze and understanding what they were thinking.Fane let out a snort before he started to laugh. When they saw that Fane was laughing, they were a little stunned. It seemed like there really was something wrong with Fane's head. Could he not tell that everyone was laughing at him? Why was he laughing with them? Was he laughing at himself?David sa
He could not do anything in the waiting area but seethe in anger. He felt more and more uncomfortable, feeling like he had to vent all his anger.He suddenly saw Trevor acting incredibly sullen. Chris frowned as doubt flashed in his eyes.They were both disciples from high-grade clans from White Marsh Continent. He knew Trevor a little and the extent of his skills. If Edward and himself were not there Trevor might actually have a chance of winning.However, with him there, and Edward as well, Trevor's chances were minuscule. Did Trevor not look into who was participating before he registered?He seemed to just barge in hotheadedly. Did Trevor look down on him? Thinking about that, Chris suddenly found a target for his frustrations, "Trevor, is something wrong with you? Are you just as crazy as this guy?"Trevor frowned as a look of unhappiness flashed in his eyes. Even if he was not as strong as Chris, the two of them were still chosen disciples from eighth-grade clans. It felt ba
What was said spread like wildfire everywhere. In just a few minutes, the altercations that had just happened were known by everyone. Everyone was curious and shocked by Fane.Most of them felt like Fane was either incredibly brave or just completely crazy. Otherwise, how could he challenge Chris like that? If Fane had Edward's skills, what Fane said would have been nothing to shout about.However, he was a wandering warrior without any backing and was even an alchemist. Where did he gain the courage to have an altercation with Chris? Was he really not worried about being tortured to death? "This guy's head must be filled with paste. I was feeling glad that there was finally a warrior from Hestia Continent taking part in the slaughter gambit, but now it looks like they were better off without him. He's embarrassing the warriors of Hestia Continent!"The burly man who had mocked Hestia Continent before laughed maniacally as he said, "This guy is hilarious. Does he know what he's do
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
