No sooner had the words left Alan’s mouth than the head of the Green family raised his hand at once and said, Master Alan, I’ll bid 21 million US dollars!Jace was instantly dumbfounded when he heard this.He turned to the head of the Green family and asked coldly, Grandpa Green, are you deliberately sticking up for this Alan and trying to pick a fight with me?I came to the Green family this time with full sincerity. If you’re going to be this uncooperative, don’t blame me for turning hostile!The head of the Green family wore an embarrassed expression. He wasn’t bidding just to defend Alan—he genuinely coveted the Rejuvenation Elixir.As someone who had personally experienced the miraculous effects of the elixir, no amount of Rejuvenation Elixirs would ever be enough for him.But Jace’s words made him hesitate. He had no desire to openly offend Jace, for doing so would be tantamount to making a powerful enemy for the Green family.At that moment, Alan smiled and said, Head of the Gr

Even Blair at the same table was left tongue-tied in shock!As the richest man in Persian Harbor, his net worth was not far behind that of the Green family.Now that he had entered his senior years, he could distinctly feel that his physical condition had deteriorated significantly compared to his younger days.This was something no amount of money could reverse.So he dreamed of getting his hands on a Rejuvenation Elixir—he would not regret spending one-tenth of his fortune for it, even for a single dose.Because he knew that beyond the Rejuvenation Elixir, not even a billion US dollars could buy him twenty years of his youth back.At this moment, what everyone saw in front of them was no longer money, but something far more precious than wealth.Things like time, youth, health, and longevity.To them, nothing in the world was more desirable than the Rejuvenation Elixir.One pill could instantly turn back the clock by twenty years; even a dying man could regain his health and prolong

Jace frowned and said, Master Alan, what if your gift isn’t more expensive than mine?Alan smiled and replied, If it isn’t, I’ll eat this entire set of tableware right here.At this, Jace burst out laughing and said, This set of tableware is all bone china. What if you can’t finish it?Alan said calmly, If I really lose, I’ll smash this tableware to pieces and swallow every last shard—no exceptions.When Lucia heard this, she hurried to dissuade him: Master Alan, why bother stooping to his level? Even if you gave me a mere scrap of paper, it would be worth a fortune in my eyes.Alan smiled faintly: Miss Lucia, there’s no need to worry. When I do things, I always have absolute confidence.Seeing how fiercely Lucia was defending Alan, Jace seethed with anger inside.Then he slammed his hand on the table, stood up and clapped, saying, Bravo! Truly the bearing of a master. With so many people here today, let them be our witnesses. If the gift you gave Miss Lucia really is more expensive t

Only after thanking Alan did he get around to acknowledging the Third Young Master of the Devinsire family.Seeing that he had been upstaged for the spotlight by some nobody like Alan with an unknown background, the Third Young Master of the Devinsire family was seething with rage.Just then, the head of the Green family finished his speech and asked Lucia to step forward and express her gratitude as well.Elegant and poised, Lucia, just like the head of the Green family, thanked Alan first when addressing the guests.Her big eyes gazed at Alan affectionately as she said earnestly, I’m truly honored and flattered that Master Alan took time out of his busy schedule to attend my birthday banquet.After thanking Alan, Lucia added, Besides expressing my gratitude to Master Alan, I’d also like to thank all the friends who are here today. Thank you for coming to celebrate with me.With that, Lucia bowed to the crowd.The Third Young Master of the Devinsire family was so angry that his nose

Everyone craned their necks to look into the box, where lay an exquisitely crafted necklace inlaid with a crystal-clear ruby—one almost the size of an egg.Gasps of astonishment escaped many lips on the spot.These were all connoisseurs; they knew a gem of this caliber was priceless.Seeing the crowd stunned by his ruby necklace, the Third Young Master of the Devinsire family smiled triumphantly and said, I’m sure you know this as well, Miss Lucia—rubies are the most precious of all gemstones. Their international market price alone runs into tens of thousands of US dollars per carat. Especially a specimen as flawless as this one—it weighs a full 26 carats. I even commissioned the top master jeweler at Tiffany to personally cut and set this gem. The piece alone is worth over 20 million US dollars. I do hope you like it.Many onlookers were green with envy, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.Receiving a 20-million-US-dollar gift for one’s birthday was simply mind-boggling.

Alan said, A marriage alliance is just like Tian Ji’s Horse Racing Strategy. The fact that the other party is stronger overall doesn’t mean every single one of their ‘horses’ is better than your best one. Their inferior ‘horses’ might even be no match for your superior ones.Claude nodded repeatedly. Young Master, that makes perfect sense. I’m truly enlightened!Alan waved his hand and smiled. You’ve been deeply rooted in Plass City for years. I’m sure you can see the logic in this. Even if you didn’t figure it out immediately, a small nudge is all it takes to make it clear.At this moment, not far away, Paul was standing idle, holding a wine glass. He truly had a newfound respect for Alan.He felt that Alan had once again surpassed his expectations.Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that all the upper-class figures of Plass City would hold Alan in such high regard.Right now, the man whispering to Alan by his side was none other than the Smith family’s representative

And all these changes had come about since Albert took command of the First Courtyard Legion.Everyone knew full well that the First Courtyard Legion’s complete transformation was entirely due to Albert.You really are something, kid! Your First Courtyard Legion is now ahead of the Second Courtyard Legion in progress! Isabelle arrived with her entourage to offer congratulations, clapping Albert on the shoulder, her pretty face lighting up with delight.Just the previous day, Dale’s Second Courtyard Legion had also made an attempt on the fortieth level. Yet even now, they still hadn’t managed to break through. Clearly, it would take them a bit more time to wear down the fiend chieftains. With the six Fiend Demon Chieftains being gradually worn down, success was all but assured—it would simply be a matter of time.Dale, can’t you show a little ambition? With the four legions of Dragon Fang Vein now, your Second Courtyard is about to become the dead last! Isabelle glared at Dale as he ap

Even Albert had not anticipated such a sneak attack. As a result, the First Courtyard Legion suffered heavy casualties almost instantly—over a thousand legionnaires were severely wounded and eliminated from the battle. Fortunately, Albert finally fought with ruthless ferocity, exerting every ounce of his strength to take down one of the Fiend Demon Chieftains in a desperate last stand.Nevertheless, the First Courtyard Legion was left with no strength to continue fighting afterward. Albert made the decisive choice to retreat. After resting and recuperating for most of the day, they rallied and charged back into the fray once more.Five False God-Tier Fiend Demon Chieftains—when they join forces, their combined power is no less formidable than that of a One-Star God-Tier powerhouse. Standing beside Albert, Pamela stared gravely at the five ferocious creatures lurking deep in the forest, her pretty face set with solemnity as she sighed.The fortieth level is a major hurdle, so its diffi

Albert’s heart jolted. His eyes locked onto the three thick tails of the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf—and nestled right among them were clearly two slimmer, brand-new tails.It evolved?! The Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf had turned into a Five-Tailed Heavenly Wolf?Was it because of the Heavenly Dragon Essence Blood he’d given it?Moreover, Albert could distinctly sense that the energy rippling off the wolf was far more formidable than ever before. Its glistening fangs seemed sharper, deadlier than ever.An overwhelming aura of oppression swept over him like a tide, stealing his breath away in an instant.Shock surged through Albert’s mind. The wolf’s power level had broken through its previous limits—this beast was now definitely a God-Tier Greater Spirit Beast!Its progress during this slumber was simply beyond imagination.As Albert reeled from the shock, the Five-Tailed Heavenly Wolf fixed him with its vicious gaze. A low growl rumbled in its throat, saliva dripping from its jagged fan

Yet Albert paid little heed to these discussions, for during this period, he could feel that his Aqueous Light Elemental Soul, tempered repeatedly by soul liquid, was drawing ever closer to evolution.His Aqueous Light Elemental Soul currently stood at the Upper Seven-Star rank; one more step, and it would ascend to the Eight-Star tier.This was a moment Albert had long awaited. For an Eight-Star soul was already considered a top-tier soul— the rank that the vast majority of geniuses’ souls would ultimately reach.Back when Albert had resolved his soul problem, his greatest wish at the time had been to nurture his Aqueous Light Elemental Soul to the Eight-Star level.And now, this simple yet earnest wish was finally on the verge of fulfillment....Inside a cultivation chamber on the plaza.Albert stared at the vial of Seven-Star Soul Liquid placed on the table before him. Ever since he had awakened his soul, he had lost count of how many vials of soul liquid he had consumed. If he ad

Did Babel invite Elvis for a drink? Albert raised his eyebrows slightly at the news, then smiled faintly. Is this White-Clad Golden-Armor Grand Legion Commander trying to poach talent from our First Courtyard?Elvis was all but sidelined by Albert now. For Babel to reach out to him at this moment was a blatant attempt to lure him away—and with good reason, for Elvis’s strength was considered top-tier among all the legions.Pamela analyzed the situation calmly. Babel must be making preparations for next month’s Profound Yellow Dragon Aura Pool. Taking in Elvis, who’s just entered the Colored Soul Body Realm, would be a solid boost to the Fourth Courtyard Legion’s strength.Should we stop them? she asked.Albert paused to think, then shook his head. Elvis staying in the First Courtyard will always be a hidden danger. His heart is not with us at all. Even if I were to let go of my grievances eventually, I’d never fully trust him. Rather than keeping him here, it’s better to let him leave

Angel mused aloud, But your sudden acquisition of the Grand Dean’s voting right has disrupted the decades-long setup Kenton has painstakingly built within the First Courtyard. In the past, he always relied on such tactics to push through dean-level resolutions. So I’m certain he will never give up this decision-making power easily.What do you think he’ll do, Aunt Angel?Angel paused to think, then said, I believe he will double down on scheming for the soon-to-be-established seat of the Sixth Dean in the First Courtyard.Albert’s eyes narrowed slightly. The position of the Sixth Dean of the First Courtyard was one he intended to reserve for Uncle Joseph. Uncle Joseph had helped their family so much over the years—this kindness was far too great to repay with a mere seat as Sixth Dean, but Albert still wanted to do something for him.He spoke slowly, I mentioned this matter to Grandpa earlier. He agreed to let Uncle Joseph run for the position. But Uncle Joseph is still severely injur
