Initially, Alf Andres intended to withdraw if faced against anyone among the three besides Julius. Alf Andres was well aware that he was far below the level of the other three cultivators. He had already assessed their abilities. Besides facing Julius, Alf Andres would not continue the match. Even with Julius, he believed the youth wouldn’t harm him.Alf Andres himself was satisfied enough with his current achievements. Actually, he only wanted to settle his score with Renshin Higashi. After he could eliminate his enemy, he felt it was enough for this competition. Especially since he received a reward that he wouldn’t necessarily get without Julius’s help. The king of spiritual beasts, the White Gorilla.The competition guides even asked him if he would continue to the next stage of the fight or not. Because they also considered Alf Andres the weakest cultivator among the four. They were certain he would lose if he faced any of his three opponents. But when the draw declared that he w
“It’s not always that we must see things with our own eyes. There are times when we must see things with our conscience so that we know the truth in front of us. Sometimes what we see is not necessarily what truly happens,” said Magnus Raven, the head of the Tower of the Gods Academy, trying to impart understanding to his two subordinate masters.For a moment, the two masters fell silent, pondering the headmaster’s words. Their gaze was fixed on the screen displaying the battle in the dimensional arena. The fight intensified with attack after attack launched by Alf Andres. However, something seemed off to them. In the midst of the battle, it seemed more like a practice session than an actual fight.“Ah! I think I know what’s hidden in this match! It seems they’re not really fighting,” exclaimed Master Lin Duano.All eyes from the Tower of the Gods Academy instantly turned to Master Lin. His small exclamation piqued their curiosity, drawing their attention to him. It seemed like Master
For other cultivators and for those guiding the battles, witnessing the fight between Julius and Alf Andres was an extraordinary spectacle. What Julius demonstrated left them profoundly impressed. They believed Julius was teasing Alf Andres by utilizing his techniques to counterattack. Only cultivators with high cultivation and above-average intelligence understood what was truly happening between Alf Andres and Julius.“I surrender and admit defeat!”Suddenly, Alf Andres admitted his defeat and surrendered to Julius. Indeed, at that moment, he seemed overwhelmed by Julius’s relentless attacks using his techniques. However, judging from Alf Andres’s condition, he could still hold his ground. Yet, he had decided to withdraw and admit defeat.To those cultivators who witnessed the event and didn’t know what actually happened, they assumed Alf Andres intentionally stopped the fight because he didn’t want to incur losses from battling Julius. They thought the young man didn’t want to risk
Almost simultaneously, Arnel Cortés and Javari Parks entered the portal that transported them to the dimension of the battle arena. Upon arrival, they immediately positioned themselves facing each other. Both sides seemed to know that their opponents were not ordinary foes they had faced before. This was evident from their attitudes, which showed no signs of underestimating the opponent before them.“The battle begins!” shouted the competition guide.Hearing the command, they began to attack each other. This time, both cultivators attacked each other using only half of their power, indicating that they were still gauging each other’s strengths. Neither of them seemed to stand out or surpass in this battle yet.Attacks and defenses continued between Arnel Cortés and Javari Parks. They exchanged blows and blocked attacks at close range. The fight still relied on physical strength, without the use of high-level techniques to defeat the opponent.After some time had passed, during which t
Crackkkkkk!The protective array set up by Javari Parks shattered instantly. The strength of the array couldn’t withstand the assault launched by Arnel Cortés. The golden-hued mother sword and its thousands of offspring swords continued to surge forward, pressing against Javari Parks’s power, who was then exerting her strength to hinder the opponent’s attack. However, Javari Parks’s power was not strong enough to hold it back. The sword’s attack grew stronger and more ferocious. Javari Parks’s life was now truly in danger.“Soul Contract Technique of the Demon Goddess Union!”Javari Parks shouted loudly, invoking the technique of uniting her soul with the Demon Goddess. Feeling that she had no other choice but to unite her soul with the Demon Goddess, she reluctantly did so. Fortunately, Javari Parks had previously performed this technique. Thus, the subsequent transformation process took place very quickly; in just a moment, her body had already transformed into that of the Demon God
“Today we were supposed to witness the final match between Julius from the Tower of the Gods Academy and Arnel Cortés from the Red Poison Sect. However, up until now, Arnel Cortés from the Red Poison Sect has yet to appear to confirm whether he will continue to participate in this competition or withdraw. If he still hasn’t shown up, then this competition will automatically be won by Julius. The time specified by the emperor is about to end,” said the leader of the match guides.The leader of the match guides, who was also the leader of the biennial competition of the central kingdom palace of the earth, sat back in his place. He gave Arnel Cortés a few moments to appear and declare his readiness to participate in the final stage of the competition. He sat for quite some time, but there was no sign of Arnel Cortés appearing. He stood up again and faced the audience who were waiting for a decision.“Cultivators, it seems that Arnel Cortés will not come. Therefore, this competition will
“Wait!”Before Julius could launch his attack on Arnel Cortés, his intention was halted as his opponent suddenly restrained him. Julius withdrew his attack, ceasing to channel his energy, as Arnel Cortés did the same. It seemed the young man wanted to discuss something with Julius.“What is your relationship with the Tiberius family in the city of Luminae? Do you know Tiberius Tiberius Achilles?” Arnel Cortés asked straightforwardly.Julius furrowed his brow at such a question. He felt there was something extraordinary behind Arnel Cortés’s inquiry. Instead of immediately answering, Julius tried to figure out what his opponent was truly thinking.“I am the young master of the Tiberius family in Luminae. Tiberius Tiberius Achilles is my grandfather,” Julius replied.“Hmm, is what you’re saying true? As far as I know, Tiberius Tiberius Achilles’s grandson is already dead. I met him on the bridge to reincarnation. I could tell because he had a lineage connection with me, also bearing the
“Let’s go inside, Julius! Let’s see what you can find in there. Whatever you’ll discover depends on your luck in this God’s Palace!” said the Emperor of the Central Earth Palace.Julius nodded in response to the emperor’s words. Then they both began to enter the portal that connected them to the God’s Palace. The palace’s walls were almost entirely made of crystal, while the pillars were made of precious gold. However, unfortunately, the palace, as magnificent as it was, no longer had any furnishings inside, just empty rooms.“Your Majesty, what can we find here? I don’t sense anything in this place except for empty rooms along the way we passed. Is there really a valuable treasure in this place?” Julius wondered, feeling there was nothing in the God’s Palace.“Be patient, Julius, just follow where I lead. I assure you; you will gain great benefits by being in this palace even if you don’t find anything here. Haven’t you already benefited from this God’s Palace? Just check what happen
