"That''s quite a big line."
Stephen, a man who was excited to see today''s duel spoke with a surprised look on his face.
"I told you to move quickly, you idiot!
I don''t think we will be able to see duel anymore.
Ugghhh!! I heard all the women of the ExceedoGenesis are unparalleled beauties! I can''t believe I won''t be able to see them just because I waited for an idiot like you. I should have juste here myself."
Stephen''s friend, Kaisel, spoke with an annoyed look on his face.
Hearing his words, Stephen frowned, he didn''t like being med like that,
"It is 1:30, we are one and a half hours early, how am I supposed to know that the line would be this big?"
"What did you expect!?
The Destiny n promoted this match all over the City, heck, they even halved the prices for the first 1000 people and are paying all that money out of their own pockets.
Did you think the Arena would be empty?"
"Tsk, they are really promoting it with everything they have huh…
But why are they going so far to humiliate a new n?" Stephen couldn''t help but question.
"From what I heard, the Sword Girl he wanted to recruit in his n is a member of that n."
"Wait, the Sword Girl? The one who recently defeated a Sage in the Battle Arena against all the odds? She is part of that n?"
Stephen''s eyes widened in surprise.
"That is correct."
Kaisel nodded.
"They say that when they were registering their n, they met Graner, he wanted to talk to the Sword Girl, but her husband interrupted and publicly humiliated Graner."
"Wait, Husband!? The Sword Girl has a Husband!?"
"Mhm, I was shocked as well. That man is not only her husband, but also the leader of the ExceedoGenesis.
They say he is the one who will be fighting against Graner today."
"But didn''t they say Graner would be fighting an Emperor today?"
"That is correct, Sword Girl''s husband is an Emperor Stage Cultivator."
"Wow… I didn''t expect that…
With her looks and talent… I thought she would only go for a Great Sage… I never thought she would choose an Emperor.
You think I had a chance as well?"
"You are only a King Stage Cultivator. Also, she is already married to him."
"Heh, it''s not like the Husband would live any longer.
Graner, who had spent so much effort in this duel would definitely not make end it simply, he may not go as far as killing him, but he would definitely humiliate him to the extent where that man wouldn''t be able to show his face to anyone, that''s same as dying honestly.
Honestly, Graner is quite cruel, they have barely registered their n, but he is already going to humiliate the leader of their n in front of so many eyes. He is making them aughingstock.
This is no different than crippling their n''s growth."
Stephen analyzed.
"…"
Kaisel didn''t say anything. His focus had shifted somewhere else.
"Oi, why aren''t you saying anything?" Stephen questioned.
Kaisel, however, didn''t answer, he just pointed in a certain direction, Stephen turned into the direction he pointed at and frowned,
"What are they doing?"
His eyes then fell on 2 Mortal Men who leisurely pasted a poster on the Wall.
"Recruiting Members.
ExceedoGenesis.
Interested cultivators cane to…
Only Emperor Stage or higher cultivators are allowed.
Huh? They are recruiting members?
Right now? <novelsnext></novelsnext>
Hahaha~ What are they thinking?
And what''s with this stupid condition?
Only Emperor Stage and higher?
Why would any Emperor Stage Cultivator join a n that is already crippled?" Stephenughed out loud.
Of course, the two mortals didn''t care what they said, honestly, they didn''t know anything about the matters rted to cultivators, they were just given these posters and were ordered to paste them all over the ce, the money they were given for this simple task wasn''t less, so they quickly epted it.
"Hahaha~
I can''t believe they are trying to recruit members right now?"
Many other Cultivators who knew the truth startedughing.
Soon, the word started spreading over, and within a matter of minutes, everyone learned about events that happened inside the Ancestral Hall.
…
1 hourter, inside the Battle Arena''s High Viewing Box,
"Oh ho? Sword Girl? We meet again."
A man spoke with a big smile on his face.
The man was 2 meters tall and had a huge build, he had a bald head and a brown mustache and beard, he had golden eyes and his tanned skin showed the amount of hard work he had put in. He had this ''easy to get along with smile'' on his face and looked quite approachable,
If one could ignore the Aura around him, that is.
The Aura the man unconsciously released was heavy.
This man was strong.
He was a Great Sage.
"The Vice Leader of the Destiny, Aiden."
Astaria called out as she narrowed her eyes.
Aiden''s eyes then fell on the women standing behind Astaria and he smiled,
"So these are your n mates."
"That is correct."
Astaria nodded.
"Hahaha~
It is good that you finally joined a n. There were so many ns who wanted to recruit you, to think you would be a part of apletely new n.
It is amusing indeed.
But I didn''t know the ExceedoGenesis was rich enough to buy 12 High Viewing Box Tickets."
"Sister Astaria, didn''t you say this was something like a VIP Seat, why didn''t they give us a separate room?
I thought I could enjoy the duel in peace without anyone bothering me.
I honestly expected better."
Suddenly, Melia spoke up.
"I am… bothering you…?"
Suddenly, the aura around Aiden changed as he nced at Melia.
"…"
Melia, however, just looked back into Aiden''s eyes without an ounce of change in her expression, her expression seemed so indifferent that, Aiden, who was acting like a ferocious lion unexpectedly stepped back.
''W-What?''
And the moment Aiden realized that he had stepped back, his expression changed. He couldn''t believe what happened.
He looked into Melia''s eyes again, and seeing those Crimson eyes, his heart skipped a beat,
This woman…
Just who in the hell was she?
"You people look confident."
Meliamented.
