Chapter 1852: Second Day
Sunlight dawned as the solar star rose and heated the chilled deserts. However, it was nothing but an illusion. The spatial formation still expanded the battle stage, and every environmental change was nothing but a high-level illusion that played on ones mind.
However, the youths in it were pretty much used to it, almost never having doubts that this was a actualized space.
Everyone, we live in a society that demands that we are in an unending fight to stay relevant. its time to rise and shine, fellow cultivators!~
A golden-robed man appeared as his voice resounded throughout the area.
It was none other than Drake Blackburn.
Ahh, its been a long time since I slept...
Logan came out of the tent and yawned, stretching out his body while Claire and Nora came out.
Me too~
Same~
I didnt think I would actually have a good sleep in a competition....
Everyone began to echo as they came out of their tents, causing them to have amused smiles on their faces.
Wait, if we were all sleeping, who was on watch...?
Abruptly, their bodies went stiff when they heard Sophies question.
I was on watch...
Clara then spoke, causing them to raise their heads and see a beautiful white-robed figure, after which they relaxed.
Sweet little sister, were sorry...
Yes, were apologetic that we didnt come interchange positions with you.
Sophie and Niera appeared beside Clara as they consoled her, but Clara remained unmoved.
Not a problem. Drake Blackburn established a defensive perimeter around us that helped me keep a better eye on the surroundings. Well done.
Everyone turned to look at Drake Blackburns whose nose seemed to be extending out of the horizons in pride, while the others were astonished to see Clara actually praise someone. However, people who were her subjects would know that she merely praised Drake Blackburn out of duty as though she was still the empress.
However, Drake Blackburn wondered why they were still looking at him with narrowed eyes.
Whats going on?
Why are they so protective of this little sister?
He hadnt even thought about doing anything yet!
Drake, do you think the crowd outside was hurling curses at us while the others couldve been possibly fighting while we were wasting time by resting?
Logan couldnt help but laugh and defuse the situation as he could understand that the young man was not at fault.
I dont think so. Drake shook his head, The competition this time is short, so theyd be rather pleased that they have time to make acquaintances, perhaps even with you people.
I dont think so... Logan smiled.
Why...?
Youre really asking us that?
Oh right, the Hex Demoness.
Drake Blackburn clapped his hand in understanding but then inwardly cried, feeling the intensity of the hostile gazes again.
Its not like Im calling her that for the massacre she did. In fact, Im proud for my friend that she did as her actions ended up letting the world know how much she cared for him, enough to end the world if necessary. Davis truly fortunate to have such a companion.
After uttering that, he saw their gazes become amicable, making him inwardly sigh.
Damn you, Davis. You have a powerful harem that looks so tight-knit and easily offended towards almost everything. How are you even surviving there? Is that why you almost died?
His women were easygoing and soft towards him, and contrarily, these girls truly embodied their elemental natures, either being fiery like fire or cold like ice.
However, he genuinely meant what he said, and little did he know that they were half-playing with him, not really looking at him with a hostile gaze but just letting him know that he should maintain a respectful distance from Clara, at least until Davis could come and say that hes still the same Drake Blackburn that he befriended.
After all, it was a long time until they had talked, and people were frightening, able to change in a short span of time when neglected or overlooked.
It wasnt like they didnt trust Mo Mingzhi, but they couldnt allow any mishap to happen as long as they were around. Or, it could be said that they didnt want to disappoint Davis by being careless.
Lets go.
Clara uttered with conviction before she took off.
Wait. What about my formations? Drake Blackburn asked.
You placed them, so pick them up yourself.
Mu Bing coldly uttered before she left along with the others.
Im done collecting them~ Kara Moonridge came from the side, causing Drake Blackburn to smile at her.
Well, at least you are still sticking with me.
Of course, and its obvious theyre going to treat you like a stranger. Kara Moonridge rolled her eyes, We shouldve met up with Davis first if we wanted to be closer with them. After all, nothing happens without asking the man of the house. Dont be disheartened if you dont know these rules. Were not in the Dual Lotus Manor, after all.
Drake Blackburn looked amused.
Right, but why would I be disheartened?
Hehe~
Kara Moonridge giggled as she knew that her husband was quite the baddy, acting like a sheep to hunt the wolf, or in this case, acting amusing to appear amicable when he had killed so many fellow disciples in the mini-realm secretly, including conniving and ruthless women whose figures could even melt the hearts and brains of many men, including the so-called righteous elders who were present outside this day.
In fact, most of them probably had visited the Dual Lotus Manor for some... extracurricular activities.
Nevertheless, what they had to face was excruciating that they couldve almost died many times. Fortunately, they survived the dangers and strengthened their bond.
Even if he could not measure to the current Davis, so what?
The person she loved was none other than the man in front of her.
They headed in a random direction, hoping to meet their opponents. It was unknown if the other groups had set up fortresses. To them, their combined prowess of twenty or so people alone was enough to take them all out. With such confidence, they blindly approached the seventy-five remaining opponents in the battle stage.
Heavens, theyre going to clash with them!
The crowd was completely shaken with excitement.
Was this going to be an ardent exchange of energy attacks or just those one-hit kills again?
Chances are that they felt that this was going to be the former because...
Two groups joined hands just a while ago to counter everyone else!
In the distance, in an area surrounded by many crevices that led to the abyss known as elimination, the alliance between two groups took off. They were just about to leave their respective camp zones in this isolated area before they suddenly noticed many auras approaching.
Ahaha!
A crimson-robed man laughed with amusement visible on his face.
How easy could this have become? We thought the other group would be a team of thirty-two, but it seems like they both have fewer members. There was no need to have formed this alliance, and it looks like the other group should be made up of Emperor Sword Sect and Jade Lotus Valley at the very least, as I dont sense their aura here.
When he said it, the expressions of the two sects outside changed as they felt humiliated even though he complimented them.
Or, they are hidden somewhere else, waiting to attack, Ulyzen.
A white-robed woman shot a look of scorn at him.
Hidden? Heh! Kritika When we number sixty-four, how could they afford to hold back, approaching us with twenty-two or ten people alone? This could be equated to committing suicide.
Hmph!
Kritika narrowed her eyes as she looked into the distance before her eyes went wide.
Theyre from the Alstreim Family, Burning Phoenix Ridge, and Mystic Ice Sect.
The others had their brows lift in astonishment as well.
Dont underestimate them. Especially Young Miss Sophie, Young Miss Niera, and Beauty Mu Bing. They both revealed Perfect Domains around four kilometers last time.
So what? We have eight people with Perfect Domains and fifty-six Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage Experts with Supreme Domains. They wont be able to do anything against us!
Hearing Ulyzens voice, everyone in their two groups couldnt help but reveal a confident yet amused smile as they agreed. Maintaining a holier-than-thou attitude, they waited for the incoming youths to arrive.
