The void was split open at that moment, echoing with dragon roars and the thunderous rush of surging currents. In the next instant, a pitch-black river billowing with bone-chilling cold surged forth from the rift. Towering waves churned atop its surface, and a black dragon burst out of the water, unleashing a deafening dragon’s roar.Grand Completion Stage — Black Dragon Netherwater Banner!Murderous glints swirled within the dragon’s lifelike eyes. It drew in a deep breath and swallowed the entire black river whole. Instantly, its claws and scales deepened to an inky black, a corrosive aura rippling along its razor-sharp talons, amplifying the black dragon’s imposing momentum tenfold.Fueled by his vastly amplified soul force, the Grand Completion Stage Black Dragon Netherwater Banner Albert conjured now wielded far greater power than it had in all prior uses.The black dragon streaked through the sky, its corrosive claws billowing like a roiling black cloud as it bore down to crush

Albert gripped the Dragon Tooth Blade, and the five brilliant astral stars floating behind him burst forth with blazing radiance. He slashed downward with a sharp streak of blade light that sliced through the air and collided with the wind orbs.The blade light cleaved the wind orbs apart, yet the endless tempests sealed within erupted forth in an even more ferocious outpouring. A deafening dragon roar reverberated from the Dragon Tooth Blade in Albert’s grasp. He channeled every last trace of soul force within his body to its absolute limit, steadily dissipating the raging storm’s assault.Even so, the sheer force of the blast sent his figure sliding backward against his will.Thanks to his three souls, Albert’s soul force reserves rivaled those of Seven-Star Astral Realm powerhouses despite only standing at the Five-Star Astral Realm—provided those foes did not wield Nine-Star souls.Osmond’s wind-element soul was clearly not a Nine-Star variant.Nevertheless… while Osmond lacked a

Meanwhile, high up in the air not far away, Osmond led his squad steadily closer and called out, Friends from Heavenly Flame High-Grade Academy, have you made up your minds?We’ve decided! We’ll join you to eliminate Albert first! a loud voice echoed over.A faint smile tugged at Osmond’s lips. They had acted sensibly. Though Albert boasted three straight victories and carried imposing momentum, he would hold little advantage within this multi-academy arena.Excellent. Then come with us and—Osmond never got to finish his sentence. He watched the Heavenly Flame squad suddenly dart into the woods and streak rapidly toward the distance.Osmond froze for a split second before his face darkened sharply.He could not fathom why they would make such a foolish choice.They had picked Albert’s side instead of aligning with his two academy squads?This decision was nothing short of an insult.I’d forgotten—Heavenly Flame High-Grade Academy hails from the Eastern Divine Continent. They must sha

Albert suddenly drew the Heavenly Dragon Sun-Chasing Bow in his grasp. A majestic luminous arrow split the sky, wrapped in raging gales, and shot straight toward a spot amid the mountain woods.Surging energy ran wild, snapping every towering ancient tree in that area clean in two.The four-man squad hiding within was exposed at once.They belonged to Holy Alliance High-Grade Academy.When the squad saw their hiding place uncovered, all their faces paled, and they hastily scrambled backward. They had witnessed Albert’s fearsome prowess across his three prior matches and knew their four-man team stood no chance against him.Yet fleeing seemed futile against Albert wielding the Heavenly Dragon Sun-Chasing Bow.Albert’s expression remained calm as he drew the bowstring taut. The five brilliant astral stars floating behind him blazed with dazzling radiance, drawing in heaven and earth spiritual energy nonstop. Meanwhile, an energy arrow took shape atop the string, coiled with winding drag

She clearly still remembered the devastatingly powerful Divine Tier Art Albert had unleashed within the Cavern Secret Realm—its might far surpassed that of the Grand Completion Black Dragon Netherwater Banner.Witt felt a flicker of discontent hearing Sweetie heap so much praise on Albert, yet he kept his emotions hidden and merely replied, Then I suppose I shall wait and see how he fares when he crosses paths with those formidable foes at the Intermediate Heavenly Spirit Realm.As murmurs rippled across every section of the stands, the arena referee snapped back to his senses and loudly declared Albert the victor. The instant the referee’s announcement echoed out, a jade-green leaf drifted gently down toward Albert. He stretched out a hand to catch it, and the leaf dissolved the moment it touched his palm. A warm, pure surge of energy flowed into his body at once, replenishing the soul force he had expended while also mending any lingering wounds.Albert had sustained no injuries in

York was confident that even another Seven-Star Astral Realm foe would have no choice but to evade the edge of this strike.Yet beneath his gaze, Albert made no move to dodge.Albert gripped the hilt of the Dragon Tooth Blade tight in his five fingers, his gaze as calm as a still dark pool. Though he only stood at the Five-Star Astral Realm, bolstered by three souls, his innate soul force was in truth no weaker than that of many Six-Star Astral Realm cultivators.Dual Soul Power.A halo forged from dual soul power bloomed across the blade of Albert’s Dragon Tooth Blade. Twin surges of soul force churned within it, countless mysterious luminous runes swirling through the energy, lending the soul force a vivid sentience.Albert’s eyelids drooped slightly, and the nine-scaled dragon mark on his forehead blazed with radiance.Nine-Scaled Heavenly Dragon Battle Physique · Nine-Dragon Might!Every fiber of Albert’s flesh and blood blazed as hot as molten lava in that instant. A staggering s

Alan had not expected Mia to embrace him openly right in front of Caroline. It seemed his wife’s affection for him had deepened, which was a promising sign.After Mia exchanged a gentle hug with Caroline, she noticed several Hermès shopping bags in Alan’s hands and asked in surprise, Alan, why did you buy so many Hermès items?Alan smiled. I picked up some gifts for you and your parents.Mia quickly said, There’s no need for such an expensive luxury brand. Some local specialties would’ve been more than enough.Alan chuckled. I’ve made good money lately; it’s only right I spend some on my family.Mia said earnestly, You’ll spoil Mother rotten. You know exactly what she’s like. If you get her such pricey things this time, she’ll only expect more next time.Alan smiled faintly. I mainly bought a limited-edition handbag for you. The pieces for Mother are just ordinary allocation merchandise.Mia looked a little distressed. That must have cost you a fortune.Alan laughed. Stop worrying so

Caroline let out a soft huff. Whether it was a coincidence or not, I still know a secret about you that Mia doesn’t!She fixed her gaze on Alan’s eyes and asked, Hey Alan, how many secrets are you hiding anyway? You’re so mysterious, I feel like I can never figure you out.Alan did not want her to keep digging into this line of questioning, so he teased her lightly to change the subject. What’s there to not figure out? When we went to the hot spring resort together, I only had swim trunks on. You saw everything there was to see. Everything left is off-limits.Caroline’s cheeks flushed bright red instantly!Her mind instantly flashed back to that day at the hot spring hotel—the sight of Alan’s toned, flawless physique in swim trunks, sending her heart fluttering wildly.Though blushing furiously, she murmured shyly in a low voice, Why can’t I see the rest?Alan looked awkward. Do I really need to explain? We’re just friends, and you’re my wife’s best friend. Of course the rest is off-l

Back then, Kazuki Yamamoto, Japan’s national treasure-level martial arts master, had only acted arrogantly in front of Alan, yet Alan crippled him for life. How could Koichi ever dare to defy Alan?If he upset Alan even slightly and got crippled too, he would have to return to Japan confined to a bed.The woman was utterly stunned to see Koichi suddenly drop to his knees and beg the man for forgiveness. She quickly reached out to pull him back up, speaking angrily, Koichi, have you lost your mind? You’re the most promising young subordinate under Chairman Ito, with an incredibly bright future ahead of you—how can you kneel before some random stranger?Koichi shot out an arm in fury and yanked the woman hard, sending her crashing to the floor. He roared sharply, Insolent! Who told you to speak rudely to Mr. Alan? Get down on your knees and apologize to him at once!The woman tumbled onto the ground with a sharp yelp, her knees stinging fiercely. She whimpered in hurt confusion, Koichi,

Yet Hermès is shrewdly calculated when it comes to the allocation rule: customers cannot pick the brand’s best-selling items as allocation goods—only slow-moving stock is eligible.These slow-selling products are utterly overpriced. Take certain 18-karat gold rings for instance. Their manufacturing cost is roughly around five hundred US dollars, yet once stamped with the Hermès logo, they retail for ten thousand, eighty thousand, even upwards of one hundred thousand US dollars.No one would be willing to buy such rings secondhand, unless you sell them at a steep loss with a massive discount.After figuring out Hermès’ unspoken rules, Alan did not fly into a rage. If the brand set these terms, he would simply play along.He then said, If that’s the case, I can purchase this bag once I pick out one hundred thousand US dollars’ worth of other merchandise, correct?The sales associate’s eyes lit up the moment she heard this. She had never expected Alan to be a secret tycoon, ready to comm

After finishing his words, he glanced at Juliet and said awkwardly, The patriarch also said that if the Bruce alliance falls through, Miss Juliet would be the perfect alternative.Juliet’s cheeks instantly flushed crimson with embarrassment.Alan, however, spoke in a frigid tone: When my father was condemned by everyone, instead of shielding our family from hardship, he drove us away. Now he expects me to lift the Smith Family to new heights? It is nothing but a fool’s fantasy!Kendall nodded and said, Young Master, the patriarch’s actions were indeed excessive, yet you need not let anger consume you.
