No, he should say that Zayn was even more powerful than Paxton!If someone were to claim that Zayn was an invincibilis powerhouse, he would believe it. Indeed, the fact that he had yet to reach invincibilis was the most terrifying part. Moreover, he took a peek earlier and noticed that Zayn had already acquired six fruits!How could he have acquired so many? It had been so long since he arrived in Shangri-la yet he had only managed to find one fruit, and he had struggled just for that!If Zayn were to consume those six fruits, he would certainly be able to reach the invincibilis state right away. On the other hand, Zayn was already so incredibly powerful when he was still half a step away from the invincibilis state, Bjorn could not imagine how powerful he could be when he finally reached the next step. At last, they left the fortified city. Bjorn could not help but ask, “Zayn, have you already acquired six fruits?“Hmm.” Zayn nodded nonchalantly without any intention of hidi
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and all of Shangri-la turned extremely restless in that time.The remaining supreme powerhouses used everything they had in search of the fruits. Meanwhile, Shangri-la’s Fruit List on Earth was constantly changing as well!Even so, Zayn never fell from his position at the top of the list.Many people were already used to seeing his name and already acknowledged Zayn’s capabilities. Besides his earlier success when he obtained two fruits before Zayn acquired three, King never managed to surpass Zayn again.They watched as Zayn’s number of fruits increased. They were quite shocked at the beginning , but they grew used to it eventually.At that point, Zayn’s number on the list was eight already!Eight fruits!How would they make sense of it? Even the powerhouses who visited Shangri-la in the past had not acquired that many, had they?They remembered that the highest record in the past was seven fruits and it was set by Regicide Heofon’
There were many experienced veterans in hiding whose interest had been piqued.They found it shocking that Zayn was still continuing his search for more fruits after acquiring eight!It changed the perceptions of those who visited Shangri-la in the past even more. Given their experience with them in Shangri-la, they knew how strange the fruits were. The vast majority of them had only managed to obtain two fruits, and they could not keep themselves from consuming them after finding the third. On the other hand, Zayn had actually managed to acquire eight. This signified that his willpower was much stronger than theirs!They had a hard time accepting that. In fact, they were jealous of Zayn, and they hoped he would die from the side effects immediately. Otherwise, they would be embarrassed if Zayn consumed ten fruits successfully and became the most powerful person in the world. Meanwhile, King Erik had acquired his seventh fruit. He also chose not to consume any and continue
Back on his home planet, Bjorn breathed Earth’s air. He sensed the familiar surroundings and gravitational force. It was as if he had been reborn. In truth, it had not been long since he entered Shangri-la, but it felt like he had been gone for ages. All that he experienced there left a profound impression on his mind, and he was sure he would never forget it for the rest of his life!He remembered Zayn’s terrifying abilities very well. He admired and respected the man more than anything else, but he also felt deeply inferior.He was once a very proud and arrogant man. He had assumed that he had the most potential and would become the most powerful man in the world with time. Instead, he had abandoned such beliefs!Zayn was like a slap in his face. Meeting him showed Bjorn that no matter how perfect things seemed, there was always something, or someone, better.Compared to Zayn, he was nothing but an amateur. They were on two completely different levels!He cracked a smile w
Next, Bjorn swiftly narrated the incidents that took place in Shangri-la to Paxton. He talked about how nothing dangerous happened in the first week and how the natives from some tribes he encountered were not so powerful. In the second week, he walked out of the forest and arrived at the area around a fortified city. It was there that he encountered native warriors who were as strong as fighters half a step away from the invincibilis state. The native powerhouses attacked him, and if not for his quick reaction and superior fighting skills, they would have killed him.Paxton was astonished to hear that and exclaimed, “I didn’t expect that Shangri-la could have powerhouses half a step away from the invincibilis state after all these years. That’s impressive! When the people of our generation entered Shangri-la, it was very rare to encounter master fighters there.”Bjorn replied emotionally, “Yes. The natives there have already begun to become civilized, and they’re learning about
In the past, Bjorn would certainly refute and express his contempt when he heard that remark. In his eyes, not anyone could uphold the title of most powerful man in the world!There were way too many powerhouses on Earth. Though few were known to the public, there were many more formidable powerhouses in hiding. They were known as the old powerhouses!After getting acquainted with Zayn and witnessing his terrifying power firsthand, Bjorn had come to agree with Paxton’s statement. He nodded and said, “You’re right. Zayn is really something. If he has enough time, he will certainly stand a chance of becoming the most powerful man in the world!”Paxton asked, “Where is he now? Why didn’t he leave with you?”Bjorn replied, “He hasn’t left yet because he’s continuing his search for more fruits.”Paxton’s eyes widened in surprise as said, “He already gathered eight fruits, but he’s still not satisfied?”Paxton said with a bitter smile, “Yes. He still isn’t satisfied after acquiring eig
A car was heading toward the man at full speed, but he allowed the vehicle to crash into him rather than trying to dodge it. Even so, the man remained completely unscathed. Indeed, it was the car that was blasted away by the impact, and the crowd gasped in astonishment. At that point, more people showed up in midair and came crashing down. If they had been normal humans, falling from that height would have been fatal, but it was nothing to invincibilis fighters.In the club’s world, people like Bolt and Gautama returned to their clubs and began to announce their safe return. At the same time, many people were monitoring Shangri-la’s Fruit List and discovered that the vast majority of people had already returned to Earth. Their names on the list turned gray. Still, there were two people whose names remained lit. They were Zayn and King Erik!Beside their names, one of them had the number 8 displayed while the other had the number 7. This signified that Zayn had eight fruits
“If that’s the case, Zayn is quite remarkable. He’s definitely not just bragging, the way the rumors claim.”“That’s right. If he’s capable of surpassing King Erik in Shangri-la, that signifies that he has real skill.”“Moreover, just having real skill is not enough. He’s also blessed enough to be able to surpass King Erik in Shangri-la all this time!”“Could it be that Zayn is the chosen one of this generation too?”“But King Erik is already the chosen one. I thought there can only be one chosen one for each generation. Shouldn’t it be impossible for there to be two?“Perhaps King Erik is not the chosen one of this generation, and Zayn is the real thing? Have you considered that?”“But that can’t be, can it?”Many people discussed this in the club’s world. They lost their contempt for Zayn because they could tell that he had to be genuinely capable if he could surpass King Erik in Shangri-la. They were even more astonished that the topic of the chosen one was up for discussion.
