Everyone simultaneously looked at Remus with astonishment.What kind of nonsense was this guy spouting? One-on-three? They had never seen such an arrogant guy! The other three contestants weren't ordinary disciples but geniuses.Richardo was the young saint master of Shenington, so his strength was apparent. Sera was Kenington's secretly trained saintess. The strength she had displayed was impressive.As for "Remus Clayton" from Monington, she was a peerless genius who had attracted 999 Tribulation Thunder. But how about the stray practitioner, Remus Clayton? He couldn't even compare with them! "Do you guys think it's unfair?" Remus asked with a smile. He chose to do so because he had no choice. If they conducted one-on-one matches, either Glinda or Seraphine would compete with Richardo. Given Richardo's current state of mind, the consequences would be even more unpredictable. After much thought, Remus believed it would be better for him to take all the risks and ta
"Shenington agrees!" Richardo immediately spoke up, confidently smiling. He assumed Remus had already shown a clear intention to join Shenington, so the latter would let him win."Mo... Monington agrees!" Grandmaster Aurelius spoke with difficulty. He desperately wished to disagree. The more he thought about it, the more he assumed the stray practitioner resembled Remus Clayton from Monington. Their only difference was a significant gap in their stages. He even suspected Remus was here for revenge! But there was no evidence.Grandmaster Burke nodded and turned to face Remus, forcing a smile. "Remus Clayton, now that all three sides agree. What do you think of my proposal?"Remus looked at the numerous gazes upon him and replied casually, "I agree too!" Not only did he agree, but he was also rejoicing. Why hadn't he thought of this earlier? Grandmaster Burke had just done him a huge favor. This way, he could entirely control the outcome!The disciples on the surrounding bo
Those words were like an unseen tremor that instantly swept across the entire venue, plunging it into silence.Forfeit?It was understandable if a contestant forfeited in the first round, as many were merely there for experience.It was also understandable for Xavier and Valerie to forfeit in the second round, as one was afraid of dying and the other was unconscious.But in the third round... It was the final round. If the finalists got into the top three, they would get enormous benefits. Forfeiting in this round was akin to giving up a great opportunity for a better future!Of course, what astonished everyone even more was that the forfeiture came from Remus Clayton, who had just declared he would fight three at once.They wondered if he wasn't being arrogant anymore. "Uh..."Seraphine's mouth remained open, full of disbelief. She had intended to forfeit. But before she could say it, Remus had interrupted her.He gave her a slight smile before looking around and saying loud
Richardo smiled as soon as he heard that. Remus was blatantly implying that he would forfeit again in the third turn!If that were the case, Sera would be his only opponent. With only one opponent, he could easily win the championship."Alright!" Richardo declared arrogantly, "I agree to Remus Clayton's forfeiture. It follows the rules and is not excessive!""No, he can't!"Grandmaster Aurelius spoke up again, also catching Remus' hint. If that was indeed the case, Glinda's only way to make the top three would be to defeat him. Although defeating him would be easy, the problem was that even if she won, she would only be third. It was too much of a loss!Furiously, he shouted, "Monington firmly opposes the forfeiture, absolutely opposes it!""Opposition is invalid!" Grandmaster Burke spoke calmly and unperturbed.Since they weren't friends and had reached this point, he had no fear of being more straightforward. "The minority ought to obey the majority. Currently, the other three
The venue fell silent. It was as if the entire world had fallen silent.Everyone heard what he said, but nobody dared to believe it.Just now, Remus was at odds with Monington and claimed he wouldn't join Monington. He even urged another Remus to come down. But then, he suddenly forfeited.Was he joking? Was he fooling around? He must be crazy!Remus smiled as he turned to face Grandmaster Burke. "Grandmaster Burke, please announce it. Don't waste time. If you can't hear clearly, I'll repeat it. I forfeit!"Grandmaster Burke was still confused, unsure what Remus was doing."What are you doing!" Richardo couldn't help but shout. He was unhappy to see Remus forfeit again because that meant he would have one more opponent! How could Remus let go of Remus Clayton from Monington?"That's right! What are you doing? How can you forfeit?" Grandmaster Carlex was likewise confused. Originally, he thought Remus had only let go of Sera. But unexpectedly, he showed mercy to Monington as well
Richardo abruptly yelled. He was unable to bear his anger any longer and cursed, "You've successfully provoked me. Not to mention if you want to join us. Even if you beg, I won't let you!"Because you'll die miserably!"When his words fell, he suddenly charged downward. As he descended, a phantom suddenly appeared behind him. It wasn't his body but a towering tree.Everyone present changed their expressions when they saw this scene."I-is this the heavenly style of Shenington, Eternal Life Tree?" Grandmaster Burke exclaimed in astonishment.Grandmaster Aurelius and Grandmaster Carlex looked over simultaneously. They also felt the horror of the tree shadow, but they had no idea what it was."That's right!" Grandmaster Merlion spoke arrogantly, "You're worthy of being the first grandmaster of Ryunington! You're truly knowledgeable!"That's indeed the heavenly style of Shenington, Eternal Life Tree! It's also known as the Eternal Life Technique. Once the practitioner uses it, he'll
Watching Richardo charge down, Remus naturally wouldn't retreat. He soared into the sky once again.Everyone witnessed the two collide again in the blink of an eye.It was another deafening bang like before. The bursting spiritual energy once again surged outwards.The sea around the small arena had already formed towering waves, and the boulders that had just been shaking were swaying even more visibly.With this strike, Remus was pushed back into the arena again. The cracks in the arena grew larger.Richardo was blasted upwards again. But as soon as he stabilized himself, he roared ferociously, "Come again!"He charged down once more!Seeing this scene, the people of Shenington became infected by his momentum. They all stood up in high spirits!That was their young saint master! Richardo would never admit defeat and always forge ahead!Remus felt his entire arm go numb. Seeing Richardo charging again, he didn't retreat either, soaring into the sky once more.However, his sp
How could Remus fight against Richardo?Remus frowned. Watching Richardo charge again, he soared into the sky once more."You're seeking death!" Richardo's eyes flashed with a frigid light.They were evenly matched in the first collision; the second collision caused Remus' spiritual energy to ripple slightly; the third collision put him at a disadvantage.This time, Richardo believed Remus would be heavily injured even if he didn't die!He fiercely pounded down his fist.Remus also raised his fist. At the moment of impact, he shifted to the left, narrowly avoiding the attack. At the same time, he quickly rose upwards and struck at the Eternal Life Tree.That was crucial!As long as the Eternal Life Tree existed, Richardo would always be in peak condition, making it impossible to defeat him. The only chance was to destroy the Eternal Life Tree!Richardo was caught off guard and couldn't stop in time. He slammed into the ground, causing dozens of cracks to appear on the small ar
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.Before this, Darsia's citizens were unaware of the immortals descending to their realm. However, by nightfall, it became impossible to hide this fact, as 15 bright stars appeared in the sky.Darsia's citizens had all witnessed the past battle between Remus and the Upper Realms, so the current scene felt both familiar and not to them.The familiarity came from the unusual phenomena in the sky that night. The unfamiliarity came from the fact that there were no other unusual signs apart from these 15 stars, making it much smaller in scale compared to that night.Among these 15 stars, 13 of them were white and evenly distributed across various locations in Darsia. Another was gold, hovering directly above Centuria, while the last one was only faintly visible.The gold star was a Golden Immortal leading the 13 white stars, who were Celestial Immortals. And the last one was a heavenly official.The Golden Immortal an
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
Kaiser couldn't help but sigh when he saw them.This was his first time seeing them since Remus died. Judging by the state they were in, it seemed they hadn't finished mourning Remus.It makes sense. After all, he was their fiancé, as well as the greatest hero from ancient times to now. How could they easily move on from that?The ten women took their seats and turned to look at Kaiser.Gabriela said slowly, "Mr. President, you should consider dyeing your hair."At this point, his hair was completely white.Kaiser waved his hand and managed a smile. "In the past, I had to maintain Darsia's image, so I couldn't have any gray hair. Now that things are like this, there's no point in worrying about it. It's good to just let things be."Even with a head full of black hair, it could not change the impact caused by Remus' death, so there was no point in making a fuss about it.Kaiser paused and said, "I invited you all here today to discuss an important matter. Just this morning, the
The energy in the Underworld was currently in high demand, and the supply couldn't keep up. It was essential to reclaim the Pathic Energies to ensure the energy would continue to be released, and no one could stand in their way.Roman simply said, "I'm not asking what you would do if it was taken from you. I'm asking if there's a possibility it could be taken."The ghost kings couldn't help but look at him. If it were possible...Roman didn't give them much time to think and continued, "Let me put it another way. Even if Remus shows up, would anyone believe it was the Celestial Sovereign who saved him? Would the Celestial Sovereign admit that he was the one who rescued him?"Everyone, have you ever considered that the Celestial Sovereign has never publicly acknowledged that Remus carries his bloodline? If he suddenly denies it and claims that it was the Underworld that saved him, how should we respond?"The other fice sucked in a sharp breath.Paul was frustrated again. "Does he
Roman did not respond immediately and instead thought deeply about it with a serious expression.At this point, what happened to Remus no longer mattered. In fact, it might be better to say Roman would love to see Remus hurry off to fight the Upper Realms.But the issue was that people in the Upper Realms didn't know that Remus was still alive. What would they do if they saw him appear again? Would it affect Roman?It was like what the ghost kings initially thought—within the Three Realms, the only ones who could save Remus were Roman and Francis.Once Remus was exposed, Francis would naturally deny being the one who saved him, leaving Roman as the only one who could have done so. By then, he would become the target of everyone's criticism.So, before figuring out how to handle the aftermath, there was no way he could let Francis find out about this."Your Majesty?" Noticing Roman was hesitant to speak, the ghost kings couldn't help but urge him for a response.Roman took a deep
Remus didn't want to admit it, but he had to—here, he felt like he was immobile while the world around him was in constant motion.In other words, he had no control over what was happening and could only passively accept everything the world presented to him, without any right to refuse. The simplest metaphor was being forced to watch a movie while you were tied to a chair.Remus was feeling frantic again. It seemed he was truly trapped with no way out."Is Limbo really like this?" He felt powerless over the current situation. In his current state, he couldn't affect the Mortal Realm or the Underworld and was simply stuck here. If this wasn't Limbo, then what was?It was like how when a person died, it was not necessarily a complete disappearance. It could also be understood as being separated from friends and family, no longer able to meet, forever existing in different realms. Wasn't it the same case right now?Remus slowly descended into the forest, coming to a stop without any
Remus was shocked, staring blankly at the scene.Under normal circumstances, after reliving his life once, he should have just faded away. That was how it usually was for ordinary people. So, why hadn't he disappeared, and why were the scenes starting to repeat?As expected, after Remus snapped out of it, he heard voices coming from the mountaintop. It was once again the scene of Tyson holding a ruler, disciplining a sobbing Remus."Why... Why is this happening?" Remus muttered to himself, growing more and more shocked. "Is this what the so-called Limbo looks like, or did something go wrong?"For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel happy or worried. Naturally, he was happy because he still existed, but he was also worried because the current situation felt too unfamiliar.Remus remained calm and continued to look ahead. The scene shifted to the front of the prison, then to Kylie calling off their engagement, and then to various moments shared with the other women from his pas
"No!" Remus roared, feeling a bit panicked.According to human processes, after reliving one's memories, the spirits would depart the body as a farewell to the Mortal Realm, and the physical body would begin to decay and turn to dust.If that was the case, wouldn't he fade away into nothingness after revisiting all his memories as a specter?"No, no!" Remus started shouting, trying to stop it, because this was the final act of his specter. Once this moment passed, he would completely vanish into nothingness, and he was doing everything he could to prevent that.Unfortunately, the situation in front of him wouldn't change just because he willed it to. The result would be the same as from the start, continuing to unfold bit by bit."Candace Nightingale!" Remus shouted once again. Seeing Candace nearly being squashed by the Pathic Energies, he couldn't help but wish he could lend a hand in it. If she had been killed then, he wouldn't be filled with such regret now.The scene was sti
When Remus saw this, he suddenly started laughing.This scene was from when he first arrived at the prison. He was indeed nervous and worried outside the gate. After all, it was his first time coming down from the mountains and entering the outside world, especially since Tyson said this was the most dangerous place in the world.Because of that, he was extremely cautious when going in, afraid of getting beaten up. It was also here that he parted ways with Tyson, and he hadn't seen him since then.Remus looked at Tyson, wanting to take a closer look at him, but the scene changed once again.It was three years later, when Kylie came to break off their engagement. Adorned in luxurious designer brands, she arrogantly said, "We belong to different worlds. Give me the marriage contract!"If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, Remus would have definitely given her a rough time. Why bother putting up an act?The scene shifted again. This time, he was at the Bowen family's luxur
