However, the Saint did not answer Zayn’s query and simply said, “I’m tired. You may go.”Zayn felt that there was something very strange about the Saint. It felt as if the man was hiding something from him, but he could not figure out what someone like the Saint would want to hide from him. In the end, he could only hold back his questions and left the palace after bowing to the Saint. When he exited, he heard the Saint’s resonant voice coming from the sky above. He said to all the members of Sicut In Caelo, “Southern Highlord Zayn Larson is not the traitor of Sicut In Caelo. It was the Eastclub who framed him, so you’re not allowed to treat the Southern Highlord with hostility.”When his voice faded, Zayn could clearly feel the numerous members of Sicut In Caelo looking toward him in a much kinder manner. They were no longer as hateful and hostile as they were in the beginning. Ezra let out a grunt as well. Even though he was still very ill-mannered, he did not doubt Zayn anym
He had already gotten some ideas about Shangri-la. The so-called Shangri-la was an underground world filled with danger but also plenty of opportunities. However, no one knew how this underground world came to be, and there was still no accurate explanation as to what it was. The people of the world only knew that Shangri-la would open at predefined intervals. Moreover, invincibilis fighters were not allowed to enter because there was a unique, mysterious force at the entrance of Shangri-la that would block them. The path to Shangri-la was not huge, so few people could access it. It was only accessible by twenty people at a time and that was why Shangri-la’s slots were so precious and limited. Zayn was qualified to enter because he was the champion of the Martial Arts Cup. As for the rest of the people, they qualified through other methods. In truth, not everyone wanted to go to Shangri-la willingly. Even though the place was filled with opportunities, meaning there was
Zayn could clearly sense that he had turned into the focus of the entire scene immediately. Everyone was looking at him. Even though they were all perfect-class master fighters yet to achieve invincibilis state, the pressure from their gaze was no weaker than that of ordinary invincibilis powerhouses. It was because they were all outstanding geniuses from renowned organizations. Zayn could feel the energy of people he could call peers. It was a feeling of confidence and reluctance to yield different from the rest. All of them had strong beliefs and were convinced that they were supremely powerful. Even if they were not the most powerful ones yet, they firmly believed that they would train themselves until they were most powerful sooner or later. The confidence did not come from their act of convincing or hypnotizing themselves but an entrenched belief. Even though Zayn was renowned, they did not feel any fear or grimness when they were in his presence. They only felt intens
“That’s me.” Zayn nodded nonchalantly. The fatso took a seat next to him as if they were close acquaintances and said, “I’ve been watching you for a long time. Do you mind me taking a seat next to you?”Zayn said, “Go ahead.”Zayn sized the fatso up briefly earlier and he was rather surprised because he could tell that the fatso was absolutely powerful. The fatso was already half a step away from invincibilis state. Even though the fatso appeared to be harmless on the surface, he exuded an intensely malicious presence with strong bloodiness. It was very apparent that he killed quite a number of people. The fatso pulled out a whole leg of pork ham from his bag after he took a seat and began munching it. He suddenly remembered when he was halfway chewing it so he passed the leg of ham to Zayn and said, “Would you like some? I cured the ham myself and it’s really good.”Zayn shook his head and said, “It’s fine, have it yourself.” “It’s really good.” Fatso stuffed the leg of ham i
“How did it go? Did you manage to sound out his capability?”When Fatso was done eating, he dusted off his buttocks and walked to another spot in a seemingly natural manner. He made his way to a lanky scrag and the person asked in a deep voice. Fatso lost his good-natured expression earlier, but he assumed a brilliant expression. He shook his head and said, “Deep beyond fathomable. It seems that the rumor out there is true. Zayn is not as simple as he seems.”The scrag let out a grunt and said, “It’s possible that he’s just sensationalizing this! I’ve looked into him and found that he’s only a little over thirty years old this year. How impressive can he be even if he’s gifted in martial arts? Moreover, I watched the video recording of his performance during the Martial Arts Cup, and it’s nothing impressive.”Fatso said, “That’s not for certain. He exerted an immense pressure on me when he was infuriated earlier. If I were to engage him in a fight, it’s possible that I’m no match
“How did you do that?” He stared at Zayn closely as if he was finding it hard to believe the truth. From his point of view, Adam was his target. He risked his life to go to Shangri-la this time just so he could make a breakthrough in his training to invincibilis state. Then, he would go to Murica and beat Adam to death. However, Zayn had actually done it and became famous across the world for it, which made Bjorn feel uneasy!In his opinion, the glory was supposed to be his!Sensing Bjorn’s reluctance to concede, Zayn smiled nonchalantly and said, “It was very simple. You’ll know when you watch the live broadcast later.”Bjorn was very displeased with Zayn’s answer, but he was not foolish enough to start a fight with him either. He let out a grunt and said, “Just wait, I’ll challenge you to a fight one day!”Bjorn was so competitive.Zayn chuckled but did not mind it. He said, “I’ll wait respectfully.”His action was seen as arrogant in Bjorn’s eyes, but he could not help ack
It was coincidentally at this time when King Erik cast his gaze upon Zayn and their eyes met. Zayn could immediately feel as if his vision was sucked into a powerful blackhole. It was a brand-new experience. He felt as if his consciousness and soul were being sucked into it as well! His train of thought was actually disrupted for a brief moment. The atmosphere turned even more ghastly. Everyone noticed that King Erik and Zayn were looking at each other, so they watched with their interest piqued. It could be said that Zayn was in the limelight recently. Not only was his reputation known in the common world, his fame had even traveled to the club’s world. In fact, there were even people who compared him to King Erik. Hence, they were pleased to see King Erik flaunting his prowess as soon as he arrived. They would be even more delighted if King Erik could cripple Zayn just by showing up. The trip to Shangri-la was destined to be ruthless and cruel. There was no telling how
The young man was named Javier Grande, and he was from Eastclub as well. He was King Erik’s fellow trainee and ranked fourth on the Olympian list. He had a rather mediocre figure, and his face appeared slightly feminine. He had a pair of snake-like eyes that gave him an untrustworthy gaze. When he narrowed his eyes, he looked like a serpent in the body of a man that would sneak out from the shadows and deliver a fatal blow.King Erik nodded gently and said nonchalantly, “It’s unnecessary. It will be an achievement if he survives Shangri-la.”Javier nodded in agreement with King Erik’s statement. The truth was, this was not their first time going to Shangri-la. They had been there before and knew what awaited them inside. They almost did not make it out alive the last time!Meanwhile, Bolt said, “Erik, what did you think of Zayn after getting into a fight with him before?”Gautama also turned to King Erik in anticipation, eagerly waiting to hear his appraisal of Zayn. King Erik
