Only now did Philip realize that the other party was Jonas. He was the successor of the Fortuna heritage whose prediction could tell good luck or bad fortune! Philip could not help but get excited. If he could subdue this person, his journey would be much easier in the future. Of course, Philip knew that he could not rely on the other party all the time, but this could save him a lot of trouble with some small things, and that was enough. On the other side, green light burst from Cesar’s body, and his level was also revealed. It was the early stage of nine stars! It was not the peak of eight stars as rumored! Cesar Felder was a true freak of nature! Philip suddenly became more excited. He found a treasure this time! A fortune teller and a swordsman in the early stage of nine stars. If he could subdue them and use them well, his future journey would be extremely smooth! In the field, Cesar said indifferently, “Everyone thinks that I’m at the peak of eight stars with th
While Philip was listening to the surrounding discussions, there was a loud explosion in the sky. Tiny cracks appeared in the air, devouring energy from all directions. Philip’s mouth twitched. “Cesar’s strength is quite amazing.” As the two opponents clashed, a space crack appeared, which showed how strong Cesar was! Cesar destroyed the sea of blood. The sky cleared up, and green life force spread out. After all, Cesar practiced the rules of wood. Even his attacks were full of life force, but they were not as powerful as those who specialized in healing. The five elements were always the top elements in this world, and the same went for the rules of the five elements. After that, Cesar disappeared. He reappeared next to Warren and stabbed Warren with the sword in his hand mercilessly. Warren’s armor was pierced through in an instant like a hot knife through butter. Warren knew that his armor was at least a grade nine treasure if not holy tier, so he was a little deva
Philip watched the two people leave and smiled. After this incident, it should be much easier to subdue them when they entered the ancient ruin later. However, Philip frowned again. “According to the discussions just now, various talents have started showing up for the ancient ruin this time. With so many talents around, there must be some powerful people entering the ancient ruin. There must be some people on par with Cesar, or maybe even stronger than him, so what’s the best way to handle this?” Philip muttered under his breath as his mind raced. At this moment, he realized that none of these people fighting for that so-called spot would be easy to deal with. “Mom should have expected this.” Philip's expression suddenly became odd as this thought popped up in his mind. In those people’s opinion, his mother was a top-notch existence with excellent schemes and methods. Philip was well aware of this. His mother seemed to have arranged a path for him that he had no choice
Regus heard the man's words and said nonchalantly, “I won’t go. If we’re controlled by others, so be it. “Many people in the royal family go about their own business, using their status to do as they please. It’s fortunate for them that we belong to the same family, or I’d have killed them myself! “Let them fight for it. There’s no royal status in the ancient ruin, and their deaths will be in vain. “It can also teach those guys in the family a good lesson. Although this world belongs to the Beelzebub royal family, people with outstanding abilities are not lacking. “If they suffer a loss this time, they won't be so arrogant in the future.” In Regus' opinion, if someone from the Beelzebub royal family died in the ancient ruin, it would be a loss to the Beelzebub royal family and also other nobles. Feeling the pinch might make them remember this lesson. If not, Regus did not mind taking care of them afterward. The people around looked helpless upon hearing this. Only peopl
The current Cirrus City was very crowded as various people appeared. After all, the ancient ruin was 3,000 miles away from Cirrus City. Now that the ancient ruin had not appeared yet, most elemental practitioners and physique builders, as well as some unique professions, chose to stay in Cirrus City. Although everyone was a practitioner, they could not practice all day long. They had to relax occasionally, which led to overcrowding in certain entertainment establishments in Cirrus City. Philip was not idle in the past few days either. He stayed in the city to find some information. He knew very well that knowledge was power. A few days passed in a flash, and the opening of the ancient ruin drew closer. When Philip was in a tavern one day, he overheard someone talking. “Hey, did you hear? The ancient Heavenly Court sent some people over, and they also brought along a testing stone that can evaluate one’s level and talent! It’s said that anyone who doesn’t reach a certain lev
“The ancient ruin will open in three days. Now, anyone under the age of 50 can step forward and take the test. “This test is for your own good. If you don't want to die a tragic death in the ancient ruin, it's best to test your strength here.” With that said, the man stopped talking and quietly waited for qualified people to step forth. Everyone looked at each other. Although the man did not say much, he had revealed two crucial pieces of information. Firstly, the ancient ruin would open in three days! Secondly, the ancient ruin was full of danger! In fact, everyone was aware of the second point. After all, good things came with a price. Practice in itself was a death-defying act! The same held true for the opportunities in the ancient ruin. However, no one wanted to take the lead. After half an hour of silence, a drawling voice sounded. “What a bunch of trash. No one dares to take the test? In that case, the Cumulus Guild will set an example for you.” With that
Neal’s words were quite arrogant. However, no one present could say anything, while those stronger than Neal could not be bothered with him. Everyone could see his practice level—the peak of eight stars! It was a level that most ordinary people might not reach by the age of 40. Although everyone here could be considered a talent, even talents were divided into different levels! After Neal killed the man, the surroundings fell silent, and Neal walked to the testing stone with satisfaction. Seeing this, a nine-star expert said, “Just hit the testing stone with your strongest attack and you can see your true strength.” Hearing this, Neal raised his eyebrow. The next moment, a long sword appeared in his hand. The sword hilt was white, and the whole sword was covered in cloud patterns. Obviously, this sword was close to being a holy weapon! Boom! Neal poured his energy into the sword and slashed the testing stone in front of him. An ordinary stone would definitely crac
“There’s more to this test than meets the eye.” Philip's eyes twinkled. He suddenly felt that the ancient Heavenly Court's plan might not be what he imagined. Otherwise, they would not use this testing stone to test these talents who were about to enter the ancient ruin! Meanwhile, in a small yard of Cirrus City’s mayor's residence, two amiable old men sat here. One old man seemed to notice the movement in the square, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. “The first rare talent has appeared. Have you collected his aura?” “I have, but do we really want to do this?” The other old man frowned with a hint of worry in his eyes. “This action may invoke many people’s resentment.” “Sully, we’re doing this to find the strongest talent. Why would others resent this?” The first old man chuckled. Sully fell silent upon hearing that, but the worry in his eyes did not diminish. … In the square, the test continued without stopping, but Regus was the only rare talent who appe
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
Rabbit was sunbathing in the yard and had no idea what was going on. He had a feeling that someone was setting him up, but he was powerless to resist. “Rabbit.” Philip calmly summoned Rabbit with no indication of his thoughts. Rabbit approached hesitantly and stared at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “Since you know that the Hexa Guild has declared war on us, we can't just sit and wait for things to happen. We have to show them how powerful we are.” Rabbit quickly understood Philip’s meaning. He wanted Rabbit to fight. Rabbit sighed and agreed. After everything Philip had done for him, it was time for Rabbit to take the stage. Philip wanted Rabbit to deal with the other party and do it in a humiliating way to show them that they were beneath a rabbit. “Okay, I know what I should do. Just sit and watch.” Everyone in Petal City knew that Rabbit was Philip's pet, so his actions represented everything. All the guilds kept an eye on the situation as Rabbit w
Philip shrugged at Jamie’s words. “It's just a small matter. Whether you accept the challenge or not, it's not a big deal.” Every guild had to safeguard their dignity. They had to accept the challenge or they would be seen as cowards. Philip smiled. No matter what they decided, he had a bold idea. Jamie nodded thoughtfully at Philip’s words. After some deliberation, he said goodbye to Philip. He knew what he should do. Not long after Jamie left, the news that the Celestial Palace accepted the challenge spread. They adopted a tough stance, criticizing the actions of the Hexa Guild. All the major guilds knew what was going on, but they were surprised that the Celestial Palace was brave enough to make everything public, which was no different from exposing the other party’s crimes. The Hexa Guild finally revealed their true colors. The members were ashamed of being part of the Hexa Guild. The members of the Hexa Guild knew about Lincoln's stance and were worried, wondering
Alain would be doomed if Lincoln ignored him. “No way!” Alain panicked, horrified at this development. The whole guild might be at stake if Lincoln was unwilling to help him. “I've decided not to get involved in this case anymore. Deal with the mess you created yourself. Don’t expect my help.” Lincoln was very decisive about ignoring Alain. Hearing that, everyone was in despair. “Grandmaster, don’t do this to me!” Alain knew that he was doomed. He wanted to persuade Lincoln to help him, but it seemed hopeless. Lincoln waved his hand and turned away, unwilling to lay his eyes on Alain again. In his opinion, the biggest mistake was choosing such a person as the guild leader. It did not make sense for a guild to turn out this way. If Dennis had been in charge, everything would have been different. Left in the room, Hogster and Alain looked at each other, at a loss for what to do. They had thought that Lincoln would solve the problem for them, so they just did whatever th
Alain rushed over to Lincoln to boast about his plan. He knew that Lincoln would be proud of him after hearing it. However, Alain got a slap on his face before he could even speak. He stared at Lincoln blankly, wondering what just happened. “Why did you hit me?” Alain felt embarrassed and sorry for himself. After all, Hogster and many other guild members were around. At his age, it was unacceptable to be slapped in public for no reason. The onlookers backed away in fear, avoiding eye contact with Lincoln. The murderous gaze in Lincoln’s eyes was terrifying. “Why did I hit you? Don't you know why?” Lincoln trembled in anger at Alain’s reaction. This guy had no idea what he did wrong. “I saw Philip just now.” Lincoln stared at Alain, trying to read his thoughts. However, Alain was startled and confused. “In that case, you should've seen how scared he was. That’s what he gets for offending our guild!” Alain was excited and smug at the thought of Philip being scared out of hi
Although everyone was confused, they knew that despite his arrogance, Rabbit would not accuse someone for no reason. “I went out for a walk just now, and everyone is talking about the Hexa Guild declaring war on the Celestial Palace and Philip!” Hearing that, Lincoln nearly passed out. Since everyone was talking about it, it had to be true. He never dreamed that something like this would happen right after he left. “Old man, you need to tell us what’s going on. How dare you pretend to be a nice person in front of my boss? You must be tired of living!” Rabbit was very angry at this hypocrite and wanted to yell at him. Lincoln grimaced and shook his head. He had no idea what was going on either. “I'm really sorry. Let me get to the bottom of this. If everything is true, I owe you and the Celestial Palace an explanation!” After learning about the whole incident, Lincoln knew that the Hexa Guild was at fault for everything. He felt embarrassed by this. “Sure, I’ll wait for your
