“Brother Duan…” Huang Jia Long looked at Duan Ling Tian incredulously. He thought he knew Duan Ling Tian rather well. However, it seemed like what he knew was comparable to a drop in the ocean. He sighed inwardly. ‘No wonder he’s able to defeat me with a single strike before he even comprehended the profundity of the law.’

When the people from the Supporting Fall Nation regained their senses, they looked at Duan Ling Tian with eyes br.i.m.m.i.n.g with disbelief.

“H-how’s that possible?!”

“Did Duan Ling Tian comprehend two profundities of the law of earth?”

“I think so. Otherwise, how did he defeat the Second Prince of the Southern Qi Nation so easily? Moreover, he’s not even injured!”

The people from the Southern Qi Nation were similarly shocked and in disbelief.

Xue Ming Cai, the Emperor of the Southern Qi Nation, looked at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully after he made sure his son was fine. His expression was dark; he did not expect to lose the bet that he had taken the initiative to propose. Most importantly, he had proposed the bet to humiliate Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation. He planned to rub his victory in Hu Lin Yi’s face. He did not care if he would lose a King Grade Celestial Weapon, but his reputation was a different matter.

In the end, Xue Ming Cai gritted his teeth and said, “Emperor Hu, I have to say you’re really lucky to have such a talented young man representing you to enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.”

Hu Lin Yi laughed heartily as he looked at Xue Ming Cai and said, “Emperor Xue, I’m flattered. In any case, you and the Southern Qi Nation have lost the bet…” He was beside himself with delight.

“Indeed. I’ve lost the bet. However, you have to admit that your son is no match for mine, right?” Xue Ming Cai smugly said.

Hu Lin Yin’s expression darkened as he scoffed. “That’s irrelevant! You better hand over the King Grade Celestial Weapon now!”

“Sure, I admit defeat,” Xue Ming Cai said scornfully. He raised his hand, and a King Grade Celestial Sword appeared in his hand. Then, he handed it over to Hu Lin Yi.

Xue Ming Cai then smiled amicably as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Are you interested in representing the Southern Qi Nation to enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm? If you represent me, I’m willing to give you the Golden Light Celestial Armor.”

The crowd gasped at Xue Ming Cai’s blatant attempt to poach Duan Ling Tian from the Supporting Fall Nation by offering the defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. They instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian before they began to fervently discuss among themselves.

“Emperor Xue is really generous!”

“The Golden Light Celestial Armor is the Imperial Family of the Southern Qi Nation’s one and only defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. Such a Celestial Weapon is worth at least 1,000,000 prominent Celestial Crystals in the black market! It’s 10 times the price of an ordinary King Grade Celestial Weapon!”

“Seems like Emperor Xue really admires Duan Ling Tian…”

“With Duan Ling Tian’s capabilities, it’d be easy for him to survive the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. If he manages to rank in the top 30, which is very likely, the emperor of the nation he represents would be handsomely rewarded. In comparison, a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon is nothing.”

“In my opinion, Duan Ling Tian has a chance of ranking in the top 10.”

“If Duan Ling Tian ranks in the top 10, the rewards would be a few times greater than the value of a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon!”

At this moment, Xue Jing Yu, the Second Prince of the Southern Qi Nation, wordlessly removed the Golden Light Celestial Armor from his body and put on a new robe. Not a hint of dissatisfaction could be seen on his face at all.

“You…” Hu Lin Yi’s expression turned unsightly. He did not expect Xue Ming Cai would shamelessly and openly try to poach Duan Ling Tian from him. He took a deep breath to calm down before he handed the King Grade Celestial Sword he won from the bet and Celestial Talisman glowing with a green light to Duan Ling Tian. Then, he said, “This is a Gale Talisman inscribed by a Seven Stars Celestial King. It’ll grant you speed comparable to a Celestial King for 15 minutes, but it can only be used once. In fact, your speed would be faster than most Celestial Kings!”

The Gale Talisman was the additional reward Hu Lin Yi had promised Duan Ling Tian earlier if Duan Ling Tian won the duel.

“Faster than most Celestial Kings?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as he took the Gale Talisman. “Is the speed granted by the talisman faster than yours, Your Majesty?”

“Even if I try my very best, I won’t even reach half of its speed…” Hu Lin Yi smiled bitterly.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened even more upon hearing Hu Lin Yi’s words. Based on his knowledge, such a Celestial Talisman was almost equivalent to the price of a King Grade Celestial Weapon even if the talisman could only be used once.

At this moment, Xue Ming Cai said with a sneer, “Emperor Hu, you’re really stingy… ” Then, he turned to Duan Ling Tian and said, “Duan Ling Tian, as long as you’re willing to represent the Southern Qi Nation to enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, not only will I give you the Golden Light Celestial Armor, but I’ll give you two additional Celestial Talismans. One of them is also a Gale Talisman, but it’s superior to the one Emperor Hu gave you. The other Celestial Talisman is an offensive Celestial Talisman. It’ll grant you the powers of a One Basic Celestial King for one attack. Under the right circ.u.mstances, it’s capable of killing a Ten Directions Celestial Duke! This offensive Celestial Talisman is worth more than the total price of three Gale Talismans.”

In the Devata Realms, the more powerful the Celestial Talisman, the more difficult it was to inscribe. Therefore, an offensive Celestial Talisman that could grant one the strength of a One Basic Celestial King was more valuable than a movement Celestial Talisman even if the movement talisman could grant one the speed of a Five Elements Celestial King.

The crowd inhaled sharply when they heard Xue Ming Cai’s offer. If Duan Ling Tian managed to rank in the top 30, the rewards Xue Ming Cai would obtain from the Profound Nether Mansion would probably only be equivalent to the price of the items he offered Duan Ling Tian.

“You!” Hu Lin Yi was at a loss for words; he was thoroughly enraged by Xue Ming Cai’s words. He knew Xue Ming Cai was so generous with his offer to Duan Ling Tian because Xue Ming Cai was betting on Duan Ling Tian ranking in the top 10. Most importantly, if Duan Ling Tian defected to the Southern Qi Nation, Xue Ming Cai knew it would annoy him to no end!

Eventually, Hu Lin Yi inhaled deeply to calm himself down before he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian. Then, he extended his left hand as a red vest appeared. The vest was woven with glowing red scales; not a single st.i.tch was in sight. One could tell that it was not an ordinary item. At the same time, a dull object that looked like an iron bead with pits all over its surface appeared in his right hand.

A few people among the crowd quickly identified the red vest as a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon.

“I-is that a defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon?!”

“The Imperial Family of the Supporting Fall Nation has a defensive King Celestial Weapon as well? Why didn’t I hear about it before?”

“I-is he really planning to give the defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon to Duan Ling Tian?”

“It seems like Emperor Hu is being forced to take out more valuable items because of Emperor Xue.”

Meanwhile, Hu Jin Yong, the Fourth Prince of the Supporting Fall Nation, was equally as shocked as the others when he saw the red vest in Hu Lin Yi’s hands. It was clear he was not privy to the existence of the defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. ‘Father has a defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon?’

‘A purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon?’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as he looked at the red vest in Hu Lin Yi’s hand. The power of a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon would certainly boost his defenses more than a double-trait offensive-defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. Even the defenses of the umbrella in his hand, a King Grade Celestial Weapon, was no match for a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon. ‘My defenses will definitely rise to another level with a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon!’

“Duan Ling Tian, you’re free to choose one of these two items. This bead may look inconspicuous, but it’s extraordinary. No matter how hard I tried to destroy it, I couldn’t even leave a single scratch on it. Its price should be roughly the same as a purely defensive King Grade Celestial Weapon,” Hu Lin Yi said.

Duan Ling Tian was about to choose the red vest when the Chaos Divine Earth’s childish voice suddenly rang in his mind! “It’s a first-form Profound Divine Metal!”
