Meanwhile, Severin stood on the stage after dealing with Thorold and sensed an intense gaze fixated


    on him. It seemed to be a gaze emanating a will to fight. Possessing remarkable perception as a level


    nine royal saint, Severin swiftly identified the source of the gaze as Jangar, who was seated with the


    Lischalts.


    Severin looked at Jangar and perceived thetter to resemble a sheathed sword, Swordwill seemed to


    resonate within him, and Severin acknowledged it before nodding thoughtfully in Jangar’s direction. He


    knew that his victory over Thorold had likely attracted Jangar’s attention.


    As Severin retracted his gaze, he murmured to himself, “You must be a swordsman prodigy? I’m quite


    curious to know just how strong you are.”


    Severin had encountered numerous prodigies in his journey of attainment. For instance, Frederick of


    the Horizon Sect became a royal saint at a young age, yet Wuhlricht–the strongest in the Skyblue


    Sect–was merely a level five royal saint. In the end, Frederick was pushing up daisies after dying at


    Severin’s hands.


    Severin shook his head and left the arena to return to the Chorteaus waiting area. Upon his return, his


    wives swarmed around him in concern.


    Gilda


    wiped Severin’s forehead with a handkerchief and asked. “Were you injured?”


    Diane took a fifth–grade high–rank pill from her spatial ring and gave it to Severin so he could restore


    his spiritual energy. “Eat this! Your spiritual energy needs some replenishing”


    She and Sofia were each busy checking to see if Severin was unhurt.


    Their concerned reaction prompted him to reassure them with a bright smile. He waved his hands and


    said, Tm fine. I wasn’t hurt.”


    The women sighed in relief upon learning that he was unscathed.


    On the other hand, Rourie and the Chorteaus looked at Severin with a mix of admiration, shock,


    surprise, and excitement. When Severin first revealed himself as a level nine royal saint, they


    expressed shock and surprise at his true attainment. Though they gradually became ustomed to


    Severin’s strength after seeing his disys, they were still taken by surprise when Severin defeated


    Thorold. After all, none of them expected Severin to be stronger than Thorold. Shock and joy were


    evident in Rourie’s expression as he served some hot tea to Severin. He then used some telekinesis to


    pull a chair over to Severin and invited him to sit down.


    “P–p–please have a seat and drink some teal” Rourie said respectfully to Severin.


    “You don’t have to do all this for me.” Severin said, smiling.


    .


    He took the tea and sat on the chair, silently restoring his spiritual energy while observing the ongoing


    tournament. As the subsequent rounds unfolded, the intensity of thepetition grew.

    Wuhlricht and the elders had been called up to the arena for their respective matches, which they


    secured victory with after disying their resounding strength. Severin had already expected them to


    advance, as their veteran status during their time at the Skyblue Sect bore testament to their talents.


    Though they might find it tricky to transcend their level and defeat a stronger opponent, they could


    nheless win against those on the same level.


    Jangar concluded thest round of matches with a crushing victory against his opponent, and the


    second round of the tournament came to a close.
