The Chaos Dragon Prince

The surrounding audience didn't dare to jeer or doubt Cain. Seeing is better than hearing. Cain's explosive power taught everyone in the audience that this seemingly ordinary duo wasn't anything to scoff at.

Already, many had a high anticipation of Amber's battle.

...

Only a few minutes needed to pass.

At battle stage 3, another duel was on its way.

This battle arena had a similar jam-pack crowd just like Cain's duel. Intrigued plagued everyone's expressions and not a single person dared to jeer at the proceeding duel. Their expectations were truly thrown for a loop.

On the battle stage was a muscular, tall man with an intimidating face. A big broad sword was tightly gripped in his hand. Slight stress veins could be seen on the man's palm, showcasing just how much tension he felt before the duel even started.

His gaze was graver than the night of the abyss. He stared with the utmost vigilance at his foe only a mile away from him.

The foe in question was the complete opposite.

It was only an ordinary woman with unassuming looks. But her presence was incomparably calm and steady. She was like a calming sea, never wavering or disturb by any event around her.

Her deep black eyes indifferently stared at her tall, imposing foe.

Naturally, the ordinary woman was Amber and her muscular opponent was 160th-ranked Jao.

Jao is a Middle Great Divine Sea warrior who managed to reach previously reach the 4thfall stage.

Among the Middle Stage, Jao could be considered quite powerful. He utilizes Divine Earth Laws and is known to have greatly powerful defensive cultivation arts.

Even if his foe has a higher striking power, they would feel hard-pressed to actually cause any lasting damage to Jao. His reputation built up considerably.

But at this moment, his previous feat and reputation mean absolutely nothing.

Jao had also been in the audience when witnessing Cain's overwhelming might. Naturally, he heard his last words and treated them very seriously. He didn't have any plans of foolishly challenging the duo.

But, to his utter dismay, his battle badge notified him that Amber issued a challenge!

To reject or not was a complicated choice.

Nobody could simply reject a challenge in the battle arena. Doing so automatically lowers one's rank, causes a loss in battle points and hampers their reputation.

The higher one rank is, the greater the rewards one can obtain after a battle or when searching the battle trade center.

Furthermore, one's reputation can even extend outside the Ming Family, letting other powers in Sky Bless City be aware of their considerable force.

As for the battle trade center, when one either kills their opponent or they admits defeat, their badges will automatically obtain a number of battle points. Through the means of a World Spirit Master, the badge system requires little input from a Martial cultivator beyond them, simply engraving their soul energy into their battle badge.

The battle trade center holds plenty of great resources. To powerful weapons, potent cultivation resources, talismans, or even Spirit Artifacts, it had it all.

Each and every one of these items is highly valuable to a cultivator. Nobody wants to miss out on numerous great opportunities, thus, even if it's a losing battle, nearly all would accept the challenge.

At least losing doesn't greatly decrease one's ranking, unlike rejecting a challenge.

Moreover, one can't repeatedly reject challenges. If one goes over the limit, they could face complete expulsion from the Ming Family with no chance to ever join again.

All of this is why Jao was stuck between a rock and a hard place. The disadvantages of losing are overwhelming. Plus, he already neared his rejection limit for battle.

Not wanting to take expulsion, Jao decided to risk it all against Amber. At the very least, he felt confident in his defense. If he could hold out long enough, Jao spring out of the battle stage at the first sign of impending death.

No matter how shameful it is, scurrying away in defeat was much better than being dead.

Jao stood strong, like a mountain, while trying to quell his nerves.

Energy already revolved out of his Inner World. The first moment of battle, he would erupt with all of his strength!

A fight for a Middle Great Divine Sea warrior would rarely gather this much attention and anticipation. But for geniuses showcasing their might, it was a foregone conclusion it would be a big event.

The audience had even greater anticipation now that they know to set their expectations high.

"Ready...Begin!"

The gong went off as the referee in the skies called the match.

Amber instantly made her move. Red Spirit energy fused into her Inner World, and the power from her soul space connected throughout her body as she activated her Divine Seal Art.

An overwhelming aura of pressure gushed out onto the battle stage. It washed over Jao and the entire audience like an oceanic wave.

In that instant, many faces tightened. Though most hoped Amber wasn't as special as Cain, reality betrayed expectations.

This power, while not as overwhelming as Cain, is still enough to suffocate Middle Great Divine Sea and pressure Late Stage warriors!

Jao violently clenched his teeth. All the strength within his Inner World erupted!

"Earthen Dome!"

His cultivation art revolved at full force. Brown energy crazily rushed out of Jao as his Divine Earth Laws descended upon the area. As Divine Earth essence rapidly forms into a sturdy earthen dome, his s Divine Aura reached its very peak!

That wave of Divine Aura was certainly powerful, but everyone could sense how much more dominating Amber was.

This display of power couldn't even make Amber's face twitch. Boundless energy continued to pour out of every inch of her body.

Faint shadow essence shrouded Amber like a vampire of darkness. A single finger of hers stretched out.

With this finger, all light within a 10 meters radius was drowned out by a black shadow field. The shadow field pulsated, trembling like a beating heart.

The power of Divine Shadow Laws caused tiny spatial cracks to appear in the air.

Indifferent as she can be, Amber flicked her Shadow-encased finger. Several Shadow tendrils speedily burst from the shadow field and pierced straight towards Jao's earthen dome.

'Bang!'

Under Amber's overwhelming strength, the Shadow tendrils easily drilled into the earthen dome!

The mighty defense of Divine Earth Laws was only able to resist for a mere split before the earthen dome completely shattered apart.

The thickness and density of Amber's energies only continue to increase with each proceeding breakthrough. It wasn't on the same level as a Divine Mortal like Cain. But because of the sliver of Chaos energy within her bloodline and the mysterious black tribulation lightning within her cells, the amplification of Amber's energies will only continue to grow!

"What?!"

Jao was beyond horrified. A violent force from the dome shattering smashed upon his body like a mountain. His protective Divine Aura burst into nothingness.

He vomited blood and his body was nearly sent flying.

But before the shock waves sent him away, the Shadow tendrils moved even faster. Blood recklessly spewed out of Jao as the Shadow tendrils penetrated all of his vital organs.

All of his innate Divine defenses were nothing but fragile glass against the Shadow tendrils.

There wasn't even a need to seal Jao's Inner World. The overwhelming force from the Shadow tendrils smashed all of Jao's vital organs into mush, causing his body to violently spasm.

As the Shadow tendrils recalled back to Amber, Jao's corpse smashed to the ground.

'Suuu~!'

The audience couldn't help but take in a cold breath.

"This was just complete slaughter!"

"Calling this a fight would be merciful to Jao..."

At least Luo Shi was able to showcase an attack. Jao was pierced through like he was a mortal facing a god! That great defense of Divine Earth Laws was basically tofu against Amber.

At this moment, another genius has been cemented into the battle arena.

Zhou Ping, who was watching calmly, nodded as if he had already expected this outcome.

While an unreadable expression crossed Zhou Pei's face. He truly couldn't take his eyes off Amber. The thoughts within his Spiritual Sea were an utter mess.

...

After Amber's battle, she quickly met right back up with Cain, Zhou Ping, and Steward Que. No words needed to be said between them. They all knew that today's actions were inevitable.

Zhou Ping had only nudged his head in a specific direction, saying, "Since it is your first time, let me show you to the trade center. For your first wins, you actually have a choice of a Top-grade True Spirit resource!"

Without needing any further convincing, Zhou Ping led the group down through a few long corridors.

The Zhou Family's manor was extremely huge. But thankfully, everything relating to the battle arena was contained within one space.

This also means that a majority of faction members linger in the battle arena area.

Only a few minutes passed since Amber's duel. And words of her and Cain's mighty prestige spread at a wildfire pace.

All battles that occur on any battle stage are secretly recorded by the higher-up Elders. Furthermore, there are also audience members in the crowds who take it upon themselves to record the battle if the excitement runs high.

These recordings weren't anything shabby either. Most had recording rings crafted by a decently powerful red-class World Spirit Masters.

While the higher up has recording rings done by gold-class World Spirit Masters!

This all means that the recordings are authentic as possible. It would feel as if they were there in the audience watching the duel.

The faint sensations of their aura's power could even be traced from the energy recordings.

Thus, in just a mere short time, the bloodline descendent factions were thrown into a wild storm of news!

This time, there was no confusion. No words of mouth or he says, she says. Everything was entirely foolproof because of the recording ring.
