Chapter 1835 - Who Is Worthy As Him?

"I wonder if Davis saw this technique of mine..."

The meeting of the two spherical flames was supposed to signify the pa.s.sion the two stars displayed to each other when they collided and imploded. Hence, she named it a tryst amidst the descending sunset and wondered if Davis would understand that was her feelings for him.

Niera slightly blushed as she thought, wondering if he was already here, seeing her in action.

She had devoted the past few months to creating self-made techniques and finally made two more. Her first creation was Burning Sun Lights The Skies, in which all the flame energy was condensed into a tiny spherical wisp that was extremely dangerous even to her because if it went out near her, even she wouldn"t come out unscathed and would be gravely injured even though it was her own energy.

Nevertheless, she wondered if he would at least praise her for this technique even if he did not find its meaning.

As for the five youths who faced against her, they finally fell into the sandy plains like debris burning like it was falling from outer s.p.a.ce. They crashed into the desert and appeared to be unmoving, making the outside arc into an uproar.

Niera didn"t even bother about them and left in a direction that didn"t lead to the edge. The two arbitrators then summoned the five youths. The spatial formation quickly threw them out before the two arbitrators checked for their life and death. A few moments later, they looked relieved and confirmed that they were alive to the others.

However, when the Twilight Physician Hall Elders came to see, they saw that fires of the explosion had seeped into their meridians and destroyed them! Even their dantians were on the verge of crumbling! They were all gravely injured.

"How ruthless! She thinks she can go scot-free just because she is under the Emperor of Death"s protection."

The Ancestor of the Twilight Physician Hall spoke with anger, but he didn"t dare to look at the Alstreim Family but looked as though he was lamenting.

"Ridiculous."

Evelynn"s cold voice resounded in the battle arena, causing everyone to look at her.

"As Niera said so herself, no one with a brain would throw themselves into the heat of the sea of flames. It"s their fault for wanting to corner her when she fairly warned them that they were overconfident."

"Warned them? I don"t think so. Instead, she even insulted her opponent"s name!"

"Do you want her to sit and talk as though she is talking to a baby instead?"

"…!"

The Twilight Physician Hall Ancestor"s expression changed before he could hear snickers and giggles all over the battle arena, making him feel embarra.s.sed. However, having thick skin, only his expression twitched before he got back to treating his disciple as well as the others he recruited.

As a hegemon, he had nine spots, but five of them had already been ousted! He thought that his youths were lucky to have sp.a.w.ned near each other as they ousted eight opponents, working together before meeting this Niera, which ended their lucky streak in an instant. He believed they were off to a good start, but this kind of scenario, although not unexpected, was certainly aggravating, making him almost descend into madness.

On the other hand, Evelynn couldn"t believe that he had the gall to complain after his youths ganged up to battle her.

Was it just her imagination, or were they being targeted because she certainly didn"t see any Jade Lotus Valley"s beauties being bullied? If the others were afraid of the Emperor Sword Sect, how could they not be afraid of her husband?

Were they targeted just because they were powerful and wanted to eliminate them as soon as possible? What"s going on here?

Numerous questions arose in her mind, but she didn"t think too much as she turned to look at the other projections.

At this point, no one other than Niera was moving alone. Each of the partic.i.p.ants had allied with another person or a group, and certain groups, when they met, further allied themselves shortly or defeated the other group.

Their numbers steadily grew, and before long, the groups started to consist of five or more people.

Niera also met up with Mo Mingzhi, who was with Drake Blackburn and Kara Moonridge. Then they met up with Sophie, Logan, Claire, Nora, Clara, Fiora, and Tanya Frostblight, who seemed to have already regrouped after eliminating plenty of opponents they came across. Furthermore, even Esvele and her group of Burning Phoenix Ridge disciples joined them.

Not one of their opponents managed to survive their onslaught; even a group of twelve wasn"t able to defeat them when they were nothing but four people and when they all gathered one by one, even a group of eighteen foes scrammed at first sight of them because word already spread from group to group.

They were now the ones who were chasing other people, eliminating them with ease, while some even honestly gave up even before a fight because they knew that the odds were stacked against them and didn"t want to embarra.s.s themselves.

As for the ones who survived as they weren"t caught, they quickly spread the information about the menace and stayed clear from them, eliminating the stranded ones, the groups with a small number of people.

"Half of the partic.i.p.ants are eliminated as of this moment. The remaining consists of 216 partic.i.p.ants."

Honorable Elder Julian Kruse"s voice echoed in the battle arena. Both the partic.i.p.ants and the crowd heard it, causing them to widen their brows. Only thirty minutes had pa.s.sed, but half were already eliminated.

They thought it would be a long way to 32 partic.i.p.ants remaining on the battlefield. However, at this rate, wouldn"t the first-round end sooner than they expected it to?

At this moment, people were concentrating on a particular group of people and their projections. However, it was not the ones who cleared the most partic.i.p.ants but the ones who hadn"t fought much yet because almost no one dared to bother with them.

"This is mad..." Someone couldn"t help but blurt out loudly, "Thirty-two people and eleven of them are youths with Perfect Domains… They… they"re going to win no matter how I see this playing out..."

"Forming groups to thirty-two partic.i.p.ants? Look at them. Not only are there thirty-two people, but they are all from four mid-sized hegemons: Glorious Pill Palace, Emperor Sword Sect, Jade Lotus Valley, and Dual Lotus Manor. Is this allowed?"

The Twilight Physician Hall"s Ancestor couldn"t help but worriedly ask, not really expecting an answer when suddenly an authoritative voice echoed.

"Indeed. It is allowed."

Everyone turned to look at the Mandate Emperor.

"The youths who have gathered here are all prideful, pompous, and powerful. However, are they charismatic enough to lead their powers, even the others? Are they sincere enough to place trust in? Are they righteous enough to be held responsible?"

"…"

The millions of people in the battle arena became silent, thinking they had forgotten this obvious fact in this half an hour.

The Mandate Emperor nodded before he continued.

"This isn"t merely a compet.i.tion but something that decides the fate of our human race. Therefore, the ability to be a charismatic leader, align the similarly strong others under their lead and breakthrough many obstacles are checked and conferred upon with rewards."

"If the values I mentioned are lacking, then I find it very difficult to bestow them the rewards, although if they could prove that they"re a legend who could single-handedly flip the human world like the Emperor of Death once did, I would be more than glad to welcome them with additional rewards. However, such a miraculous individual would show up only once in an era, not to mention-"

Abruptly, the Mandate Emperor"s speech cut off as everyone saw his pupils dilate while his mouth parted.

They wondered where he was looking before they turned to see a projection. However, what they could see was nothing but an icy world that had been frozen.

Before they could even realize what was going on, resplendent white light flashed, and thirty-two people were thrown out of the spatial formation. The people"s eyes shot wide in shock as they recognized this group. It was none other than the group that they were just talking about!

The sharp and confident youths of the Emperor Sword Sect. The callous yet prudent cultivators of the Glorious Pill Palace. The licentious yet caring couples of the Dual Lotus Manor. The mysterious yet gorgeous beauties of the Jade Lotus Valley.

Most of them were s.h.i.+vering as ice covered their body while some had even fainted, their life and death unknown.

"Quick! Heal them!"

The Mandate Emperor"s heavy voice echoed, and only then did the four mid-sized hegemons move as it shook them out of their reverie. Instantly, many turned to the remaining projection where that ice world could be seen, and they saw the culprit was none other than a single woman. However, her figure was not quite visible in the icy atmosphere, and they had not paid attention to this woman"s projection before who hadn"t defeated anyone before.

"A single attack!?" The Starnova Emperor"s eyes were wide with shock as he instantly realized.

"Who… who is that?"

Even the Karmic Guardian Emperor could not hide his shock.

Taking down thirty-two of them with a single attack when they were essentially at the same level was not a simple feat!

"Myria of the Mystic Ice Sect."

Abruptly, a female voice echoed, and everyone couldn"t help but turn to look at the source of the voice, which turned out to be the gorgeous and voluptuous Mystic Ice Sect"s Sect Master, Bing Luli.

In the Alstreim Family"s seating area, Evelynn narrowed her s.e.xy eyes as a curve appeared on her lips.

"There you are, Ellia...."
