Philip soon arrived at Warble Mountain, but he was stopped by someone. It seemed they had occupied that place. “The Tempo Guild has taken this area as our territory. No outsiders are allowed to enter.” The other party stopped Philip from going forth. Seeing these members’ arrogance, Philip turned around and left without a word. He simply wanted to explore this place, not cause trouble. He noticed that the foot of the mountain was surrounded by people, but they did not belong to the same guild. These major guilds clearly wanted to seize this area for their own. “They cordoned off the whole area to prevent smaller guilds and individual visitors from entering. This is really interesting.” Philip was amused to see members of the major guilds surrounding the land. He overheard their discussions too. “Are we just going to sit and wait? No one knows who this land belongs to.” Philip was puzzled to hear that comment and wondered what was going on. “Yeah, I’m amazed that we have
Everyone was excited to hear the news from Philip. “That’s great. We’ll take part in all the challenges. We have to show everyone what we can do. It’s time to make a name for ourselves,” Aslan said with a bright smile. He had long wanted to show off his skills. After all, a monster beast like him always liked to show off his abilities. It was excruciating for him for not being able to do so. Philip made arrangements to set off in three days. Three days later, Philip brought everyone to the location where the competition was held. Practitioners from various guilds arrived one after another, and all the inns in that area were fully occupied. Philip sighed. He did not expect that the competition would be held in such a remote area. “We might've failed to find a place to stay if we’d been a tad later. This place is dreadful.” Aslan looked around with disdain. The scenery was nice, but other things were lacking. The inn was quite rundown, including the rooms they had been as
“See you on the battlefield.” They had some battles to fight, so threats were meaningless at this point. Aslan was full of disdain. He had no intention of joining the fight. He was simply responsible for bringing the others here. “As you can see, these people are very arrogant. We should let them know how powerful we are,” Philip encouraged everyone. He was curious to find out how strong the major guilds were. It was his first time competing with the large guilds, so it was a good chance to find out. “Let’s go to the registration office to sign up.” Philip had customized uniforms for them. As a large guild, they should have their uniforms. Their clothes looked different from others because of certain modern fashion elements. Philip had found a high-end designer to customize the uniform, so it was not comparable to the clothes of normal people. As soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of many people. The women were envious, and everyone was curious about th
The guild leaders sat down in their respective positions. Philip knew that no one recognized him. As everyone chatted with each other, Philip had no intention of joining them. He thought they were too noisy. Although Philip ignored them, they were curious about Philip and wanted to talk to him. “Which guild do you represent?” “You don’t look familiar. I don’t think I’ve seen you before.” “Why don’t you introduce yourself?” Everyone asked Philip to introduce himself and seemed curious about him. At this time, the leader of the Pill Guild smiled with disdain. Since Philip had offended him, he wanted to teach Philip a lesson. “Hehe, he’s not as strong as you think. He’s just an ordinary guild leader of a small and unknown guild. His personal strength is not bad, but that doesn’t apply to the members under him.” Donald bad-mouthed Philip in private. He thought Philip would never find out. As the leader of the Pill Guild, his status and position were higher than other guil
How could some ordinary members come up with such powerful treasures? Donald was confused and at a loss for what to do. Philip stood aside, unfazed and unmoved. His members were responsible for their own pills and weapons. It had nothing to do with him. Philip simply provided them with the necessary practice resources. The leaders of other guilds were amazed by their strong performance. They looked at Donald in confusion, wondering what he was up to. “I think you need to explain this or else…” “Who said they were lousy? They're better than I imagined.” “From the looks of it, Guild Leader Philip should be very powerful too.” As they discussed it, they felt a sense of crisis, and their moods became somber. They thought that the winner would emerge among the major guilds, but this powerful guild popped out of nowhere. Everyone had a bad feeling about this dark horse. They were nervous. If this matter escalated, things would not be so simple. Everyone was determined to ge
“You should hurry up and check that guy’s background. Besides, why are you here when your guild has ended up in that state?” someone mocked Donald in disdain. Donald looked at the person who spoke. “My guild is just not interested in this event. As for that mountain, I’m not very keen about it either!” Donald said arrogantly, feeling upset. “Is that so? As far as I know, you’re currently facing a big problem. I heard that you’ve lost several guild elders recently, and your elite members have suffered major casualties. Is that true?” The major guild leaders gathered around, curious to hear about it. Donald was usually very cautious. How could he make such a big mistake? Donald was upset to hear everyone talking about him, trying to dig for information on the pretense of showing concern. He wished he could drive them away. However, he could not do that given his status. His position was not enough to compete with everyone. “You must be kidding. This is no big deal to me. I
“You won’t have to be so angry if you agree to work with me.” Donald turned around doubtfully for a look and found that he did not know that man. Moreover, this man appeared behind him without his knowing! How bizarre! Realizing that, Donald was filled with both fear and anticipation. He was clearly curious about this guy. “What do you mean by working with you? Can you kill him? I doubt so.” Donald was not looking down on this man, but Philip was too strong—not someone anyone could deal with. “I know his background. He’s not from around here. I know many of his secrets, unlike you.” Hearing that, Donald was startled. Philip’s background was baffling, indeed. “If he’s not from around here, is he from that mysterious place he mentioned…” Donald pondered, wondering what was going on. The man smiled to himself as if waiting for Donald’s reply. “If you want to be trampled under his feet forever, I don’t mind if you reject me outright.” Donald frowned at his remark but fina
“I’ll take care of his guild members next. You have to believe that I can kill him easily with my strength,” the mysterious man said smugly. He could not deal with everyone at once, but he could take care of a few at a time easily. “In that case, take down the championship this time and show me how good you are,” Donald bargained with the other party. If this person was really that good, he could get first place for Donald. Donald was very interested in the legendary Warble Mountain. “Warble Mountain is mine.” Donald looked in the direction of Warble Mountain with resentment. If not for Philip, things would not have turned out this way. “I can’t help you with that. You’re too weak. Even if I can help you deal with Philip, you have other opponents to deal with. I said I can help you deal with Philip, not other things.” Donald rolled his eyes at this guy’s nerve. “If you're refusing to help me, forget it. Just deal with Philip, then. If you can solve this problem, I won't
Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.
It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not
Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S
“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family
“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
