ONE HOUR LATER.GRAND ARENA - RIGHTEOUS DRAGON SECT.The Grand Arena was a magnificent structure standing firmly at the center of the Righteous Dragon Sect's territory.Shaped like a giant circle with a diameter of over three hundred meters, this arena was surrounded by rows of towering stands—capable of accommodating millions of spectators.In the center of the arena was a battle platform made of very hard white jade stone—special stone that could withstand the impact of high-level cultivator powers.And most importantly...This arena was protected by a very powerful array formation.That array emitted transparent golden light, forming a giant energy dome covering the entire arena from top to the platform base.This formation was specially designed by the best formation masters of the Righteous Dragon Sect, with a single purpose—to contain the impact of Divine Realm power.No matter how fierce the battle inside, energy wouldn't leak out and injure spectators.And right now...The Gra

Hundreds of miles above the Grand Arena, beyond the white clouds floating calmly, there were two figures sitting casually on top of dense clouds they had formed themselves.A man and woman, both appearing to be around twenty-six years old.The man had a handsome face with long black hair tied neatly. The woman beside him had stunning beauty, her long black hair flowing gracefully.Both wore white-gold robes with embroidered red-eyed dragons coiling on the chest and back—symbols of the same sect.Their gazes were cold, radiating superiority that couldn't be hidden.Both had extraordinary auras—auras far surpassing Divine Realm.This was the aura of cultivators from the Upper World.The man looked down with a gaze full of interest, observing the battle between Kael and Jian Wuying at the Grand Arena which looked like a small dot from this height.The woman beside him turned, looking at the man with a confused and slightly annoyed gaze."What's so interesting about watching two ants figh

Jian Wuying stood in the center of the platform, his breathing heavily labored, blood still dripping from the corner of his mouth.His robes were torn in several places, his body trembling—not from fear, but from anger and... desperation.He looked at Kael with eyes full of deep hatred."This bastard... this bastard is truly surpassing me...""I... a first-level Divine Realm...""Have cultivated for hundreds of years...""I've also used all the best techniques of the Eternal Shadow Sword Sect..."He looked at his trembling hands."Even the Heaven-Destroying Shadow Dragon—our sect's best ultimate technique—still couldn't defeat him..."He clenched his fists tightly, so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, creating small wounds that bled.He couldn't accept this...He couldn't accept the fact of being defeated by a tenth-level Eternal Realm...HE COULDN'T!Desperation began creeping into his heart."What should I do? What can I do? All my techniques... all my power... aren't enoug

Jian Wuying looked at Kael with a gaze full of killing intent.Then...Without warning—WHOOOOSHHH!!!He moved.Incredible speed.Far exceeding before.Even Kael...His sharp eyes trained very well to capture speed...Couldn't react in time.WHAM!!!Jian Wuying's fist wrapped in purplish black energy mixed with blood-red struck Kael's stomach with terrifying force.CRAAAACKKK!!!The sound of cracking ribs was clearly audible.BOOOOMMMMM!!!Kael was thrown flying like a meteor, his body soaring through the air at high speed.CRAAASSSHHH!!!He crashed into the protective array at the edge of the platform hard.That array shimmered with intense golden light, withstanding the impact, not breaking.But Kael...SPURT!!!He vomited fresh blood from his mouth—so much, flowing heavily to his chin, neck, and robes.His body fell to the platform floor hard.THUD.He coughed, blood continuing to come out of his mouth.Extraordinary pain spread throughout his body—especially in his stomach, in his

Throughout the VIP stands, leaders and elders from the Ten Great Sects looked with pale faces, not believing what they witnessed."Breakthrough to Divine Realm in the middle of battle...""This... this is something that only exists in legends...""Li Xin... he's destined to become the greatest.""I'm so envious of the Grand Healer for having a grandson as amazing as Li Xin."While everyone fell into admiration, Jian Wuying looked at Kael with widened blood-red eyes, his face showing fear."No... impossible..." he whispered in a trembling voice. "You... you made a breakthrough... at the edge of death?!"He stepped back, his body trembling.He sensed the aura flowing from Kael's body.Divine Realm aura.Same as his.No!It was even... stronger."How... how is this possible?! He who was almost dead before, and now... he's at Divine Realm?!"Extreme fear began creeping into his heart.Kael stepped forward slowly.THUD.Each of his steps created cracks in the platform, showing extraordinar
