Albert said calmly, Many years ago, Joseph escorted the Head Dean of the First Academy from the Tianyuan Divine Continent to the Outer Divine Continent. Along the way, he fought bitter battles and was gravely injured, shattering his God Platform. His strength stagnated for more than a decade. Does this not count as merit?Many high officials in the Council Hall exchanged glances.Kenton froze, then his face darkened. Albert was indeed sharp and cunning. The incident years ago had started when Andrew and Charlotte offended the Supreme Bruce Clan. Even the Supreme Martin Clan had chosen not to intervene, meaning it had been Andrew’s private affair. How could Joseph’s involvement count as official merit?But the problem was… Albert had not named Andrew directly, only his title at the time.Back then, Andrew had still been the Head Dean of the First Academy. With that status, Joseph’s protection of him could strictly be counted as service to the First Academy.Could anyone deny Andrew’s p

Right now, the First Academy has no Head Dean, with only four Deans—the smallest number among all four academies. If a new Dean were to be added now, Kenton naturally hoped it would be someone on his side. That way, he could completely suppress Angel, and the First Academy would become his domain alone.Angel flicked a glance at Kenton at that moment, her eyebrows furrowing almost imperceptibly. She knew full well that Kenton was eyeing the newly created Dean position, and he had made thorough preparations for it.The requirements to compete for the Dean position were quite strict: one must not only have a record of service within the First Academy’s territories but also possess strength that commanded the respect of all. Few within the two realms under the First Academy’s jurisdiction met these criteria.The only two qualified city lords had already pledged their loyalty to Kenton.So under normal circumstances, the new Dean would most likely end up in Kenton’s hands.Angel understoo

And in the Tianyuan Divine Continent, Joseph could now be considered a powerful figure in his own right. No matter which faction he joined, he would be revered as a honored guest and well‑treated.It was fortunate that Thomas had sealed the hall’s space; otherwise, the appearance of the seven God Platforms would have triggered a celestial phenomenon and stirred the energy of heaven and earth.The seven God Platforms did not remain for long, however. They soon turned into streams of light, sank down, and vanished directly into the top of the burly figure’s skull.At that moment, Joseph slowly opened his eyes.In that instant, a blade light of monstrous ferocity seemed to burst forth from his eyes. As it appeared, the void before him was instantly torn open.Albert and Euphemia’s expressions changed. Neither dared to look directly at Joseph’s overwhelming, unrestrained aura.Although they had seen many god‑level powerhouses in the Dragon Tooth Vein, to those at their level, the might of

Not to mention that under the pressure of the Dragon Ascension, he had broken through and advanced to a colorful soul body at the 40‑meter Colorful Cloud realm. After that, he had also obtained the Nine‑Scale Heavenly Dragon Battle Body, which had greatly boosted his combat power.According to Albert’s estimation, even though he was only at the colorful soul body stage now, with top‑tier techniques like the Dragon Tooth Sword Formation, he was completely unafraid of any powerful enemy at the Two‑Star Primary Heavenly Spirit Realm.But that was clearly still not enough. After all, the Cave Heavenly Secret Realm would surely gather numerous prodigies from the Primary Heavenly Spirit Realm—many of them would be at the Five or Six-Star level, or even higher. If he had to compete with such opponents, he would still be outmatched.So before the secret realm opened, he had to raise his strength as much as possible.Three days later, Albert finished his secluded training and headed for the ma

Back then, all factions fought fiercely, locked in an all-out struggle. Even powerhouses like us at the Holy Spirit Realm stepped in. Only when the Cave Heavenly Secret Realm showed signs of collapsing did everyone rein in their attacks. After lengthy negotiations, the top forces agreed to seal it off and explore it jointly—no single faction could claim exclusive control.Albert was secretly astonished. Even Holy Spirit Realm powerhouses had been mobilized; that showed just how much all forces valued the Cave Heavenly Secret Realm.The Cave Heavenly Secret Realm naturally generates many talismans every once in a while. These talismans serve as keys and passes to enter the cave. Most of these keys are seized by the powerhouses stationed there by the major factions. Still, by agreement, the factions do not take everything—some are left scattered for loose cultivators with good fortune. This avoids resentment over us monopolizing the opportunities and barring others.Thomas went on:Thes

Albert’s eyes widened in surprise. Now that he had come to the wider Inner Divine Continent, his vision had long since expanded, so he had heard of this so-called Twin Purple-Eye Treasure Tool.It was a higher-grade form of Purple-Eye Treasure Tool, formed during the forging process when the tool merged with heavenly energy more intensely and perfectly, resulting in the dual-eye pattern.Among Purple-Eye Treasure Tools, the twin-eye form was not the highest level—it was said they could reach up to Three Purple Eyes.A Three Purple-Eye Treasure Tool, if advanced further, would become a true God-Rank Treasure Tool. Such treasures possessed the genuine power to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, and were relied upon by countless god-level powerhouses.This Twin Purple-Eye tortoise-shell treasure tool was extremely valuable. If placed in the Newhurst Empire, it would be a rare treasure indeed.Especially for those below the God Realm, possessing a Twin Purple-Eye treasure tool would bo

Alan waved his hand. Kara is not my disciple. She is my friend, or strictly speaking, the daughter of my friend. I’ve only been her temporary coach these past few days, giving her some guidance.Ito Keiko asked in surprise, Mr. Alan, you’re not a professional coach?Alan smiled. Of course not. I’m just an unemployed man with no occupation.Unemployed?Ito Keiko’s face was filled with shock and disbelief.Alan, whose power was beyond imagination, was actually an unemployed man with no job?Just as she was about to ask further questions, the referee stepped onto the ring and announced, Thirty seconds countdown for the second round!Alan said to Ito Keiko, Focus on your match. I’ll be leaving now.You’re leaving, Mr. Alan?A sudden sense of loss welled up in Ito Keiko’s heart.Alan added, Oh, by the way, the bet with Ichiki Yamamoto is over. Once he’s discharged from the hospital, he is free to leave Pless City.With that, Alan did not stay any longer and turned to leave without looking

Ito Keiko forced a bitter smile and murmured,Tanaka-san, you saw how terrifying Mr. Alan’s power was. The gap between him and me is just too great.Koichi Tanaka’s expression was heavy with emotion.He did not know how to comfort his young lady.For he could understand how she felt at this moment.Alan’s power was simply monstrous. Ichiki Yamamoto was a national treasure-level master in Japan, yet he could not even withstand a single palm strike from him. If he were in her place, he would have lost all will to fight as well.Even this small match before them, let alone the Olympic Games, seemed to have lost all its luster.Even the so-called path of martial arts had become a joke.He had served Ito Keiko for many years, and now he could not help but feel sorry for her. He could not hold back and said,Young Lady, if you have truly lost faith in this match, then let us return to Japan!Ito Keiko asked hurriedly,Tanaka-san, what about my master? How is he right now?Koichi Tanaka hesi

That’s right! Ichiki Yamamoto shouted sharply. If you forfeit like this, I’ll act as if I never took you as my disciple in my life!Hearing this, Ito Keiko clenched her fists and said through gritted teeth, Master, don’t worry. I will win!With that, she stood up at once, hurried out of the waiting area, and headed straight for her ring.Meanwhile, Kara’s match had already begun.Her opponent this time was the 3rd seed of the entire tournament, Joanna from Brazil.Joanna was tall, muscular, and possessed explosive power. Even though she was only the 3rd seed, most observers expected her to defeat the 2nd seed and take second place.Because of this, no one believed Kara could beat this top contender for the runner-up position.Yet a shocking scene soon unfolded!In the ring, Joanna launched a fierce attack on Kara right from the start.She thought Kara’s strength was nothing to fear. If she wanted to conserve enough energy for later matches, her best move was to defeat Kara as quickly

With that, Alan gently patted Kara on the back and instructed, Fight well in the match later. Don’t let me down.Kara nodded quickly. Don’t worry, Master Alan. I will do my best!Alan and Kara then turned and walked out of the waiting area toward the competition ring, leaving Ichiki Yamamoto lying on the ground and Ito Keiko beside him with red, tearful eyes.Ito Keiko stayed by Yamamoto’s side and asked anxiously, Master, let me call an ambulance and take you to the hospital!Ichiki Yamamoto quickly waved his hand. The match is about to start. Go at once. Don’t worry about me. Don’t let me ruin your competition.Kojiro Kobayashi beside them also hurried to say, Yes, Miss Keiko. If you don’t go soon, you might be disqualified for being late. Then you’ll lose your chance to win the championship.Ito Keiko said anxiously, But I can’t just leave my master here alone! He can’t move at all!Ichiki Yamamoto blurted out, Keiko, leave me be. This match means everything to you. You must win th

With that, he stepped forward to Ichiki Yamamoto, looked down at him, and said calmly:I didn’t want to cripple you, but you insisted on coming to me and begging for it. I had no choice.Besides, don’t think this is over. Our bet has only just begun. I’ll give you one minute to stand up. If you can’t, then I win the bet.Since I’ve won, I will carve the four words Sick Man of East Asia onto your forehead!At that moment, Ichiki Yamamoto trembled all over with fear.It was the first time in his life that he felt terror deep from his soul.He had never seen such a master—this was far beyond anything he had ever imagined a master could be.What kind of expert could possess such terrifying power, that a soft, gentle palm strike could turn him into a complete cripple?The worst part was that even after reducing him to a useless wreck with one palm, he was still not satisfied, and wanted to carve those four humiliating words into his forehead.Panicking, he begged:Sir, I am no match for yo

Ichiki Yamamoto was left speechless for a moment. He had no idea whether the story Alan had told was true or not.Kojiro Kobayashi, however, turned pale with terror.He knew exactly who those Japanese karate experts that Alan was talking about.His own brother, Ichiro Kobayashi, had always kept a team of bodyguards, all of whom were top Japanese karate masters.But he already knew their fate all too well.Ichiki Yamamoto, however, knew nothing of this. He sneered,Young man! How dare you compare your so-called Tai Chi and inner energy with Japanese karate? Let me tell you — karate is the strongest fighting skill in the bar none! It is infinitely better than your fake Tai Chi magic performed by actors!Alan smiled,Mr. Yamamoto, I’m no expert, but I have learned a little Tai Chi and inner energy. If you don’t believe me, dare you stand here and take one single palm strike from me with both hands ready to block?Ichiki Yamamoto said arrogantly,Why wouldn’t I dare? But if I withstand yo
