Chapter 699: Chapter 699: The Struggle of the Top Six

"Miss Winnie receiving a thousand lower grade original stones without any reaction is to be expected. After all, she comes from a prestigious background, and isn’t wanting for original stones."

"But Walter Simmons and Kase Dragonsmith, who both hail from a small empire, being able to remain this calm in the face of lower grade original stones is quite surprising."

...

Many people exclaimed.

Of course, there were others who refuted this viewpoint with strong grounds, "Humph! You all don’t forget, whether it’s Walter Simmons or Kase Dragonsmith, they each possess a ’Third-grade spiritual device’!"

"Exactly! That’s a third-grade spiritual device, which even in our Great Turdo Dynasty, apart from Miss Winnie, the most stellar among the youth probably don’t have."

"Compared to a third-grade spiritual device, lower grade original stones are essentially insignificant."

...

In the Great Turdo Dynasty, there is a vein of original stones, producing ’lower grade original stones’ in abundance.

And prior to this day, there was only one third-grade spiritual device on display in the Imperial Family of the Great Turdo Dynasty.

As for which of the two is more valuable, it’s clear at a glance.

Soon, this topic was concluded.

"The other six Ninth-level Void Realm young prodigies should be getting ready for their final ’Ranking Battle’... this is so exciting!"

"Indeed, the main event of today is about to begin! Six young powerhouses of the Ninth-level Void Realm are set to fiercely battle each other."

"It’s a pity about Miss Winnie, she announced from the start that she wouldn’t compete with the six Ninth-level Void Realm prodigies...and now after understanding the ’Ninth-level Fire Realm’, she could’ve had a chance to contend with Seventh-level Void Realm prodigies, butit’s a missed opportunity."

"We can’t blame Miss Winnie for this. Not even she could have known that she’d successfully comprehend the ’Ninth-level Fire Realm’ during her fight with Walter Simmons."

...

The atmosphere of the Arena became lively once again.

Everyone’s attention shifted to the six Ninth-level Void Realm youth, including Wyatt Barnes.

Of course, there were a fair few who mentioned Winnie Romero, conveying their sympathy for her.

"Miss, do you regret it?"

From the Romero clan’s private viewing stand, Elder Kane asked Winnie Romero, a smile on his face.

Winnie Romero lightly shook her head, "I have no regrets. The Decennial Martial Meet is the ultimate ’stage’... Today’s ranking battle, compared to the Decennial Martial Meet, is actually unimportant. The ranking doesn’t matter."

Upon hearing Winnie Romero’s words, a rare smile of relief appeared on the face of Taoi Romero.

His daughter, had grown up.

"Now, we invite the final six young prodigies to take the field."

An elder’s voice echoed clearly in the ears of everyone present at the Arena.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With the elder’s announcement, three figures flew onto the battlefield, obviously prepared in advance.

These three were Prince Matteo Buckingham, Hal Buckingham of the Turdo Dynasty’s Imperial Family, and Serenade Nicholson, the eldest young master of the Nicholson Clan.

"Wyatt Barnes, bring home ’first place’."

Walter Simmons looked at Wyatt Barnes, grinning as he encouraged him.

Walter’s words resonated with the majority of the young talents from the Blackstone Empire, their eyes falling on Wyatt Barnes, "Exactly, Wyatt Barnes, bring home ’first place’! Just think about how much glory it would bring to the Blackstone Empire."

"If Wyatt Barnes were to really secure first place in today’s Dynasty Martial Ranking, that would be a truly exciting scene."

"Wyatt Barnes, keep going! We have faith in you."

...

In response to the impassioned encouragement from the young talents of the Blackstone Empire, Wyatt Barnes shrugged his shoulders and chuckled, "I can’t guarantee I’ll take ’first place’...but I’ll definitely give it my all!"

Just as he said, he couldn’t guarantee it.

After all, on the stage of the Dynasty Martial Ranking, with so many pairs of eyes belonging to Cave Void Realm powerhouses watching him, he dared not carelessly use his spiritual power.

Otherwise, by using his soul technique ’Illusion’, none of the other five would even be able to touch the corner of his clothes.

Now, he had to use his actual strength to contend against the other five young powerhouses.

"Wyatt Barnes, they’re only joking; don’t feel any pressure."

Prince Yakim addressed Wyatt Barnes.

"Yes, we were just joking."

It seemed that they had realized their words might’ve put pressure on Wyatt Barnes, the young talents from the Blackstone Empire hastily remedied their statements.

However, they were just overthinking it.

Wyatt Barnes wouldn’t feel any pressure from their words, after all, when he participated in the ’Dynasty Martial Ranking’, he had never considered gaining glory for the Blackstone Empire.

Wyatt Barnes lived for himself and those closest to him.

"Elder Brother Ling Tian."

Valiant Charlesworth turned to look at Wyatt Barnes, his eyes filled with encouragement.

After Wyatt Barnes responded with a smile, he left the viewing stand and flew to the midst of the arena.

"At this moment, ’Brian Graham’ of the Graham Clan and ’Marshall Tyler’ from the Royal Family of the Great Turdo Dynasty also took their places one by one.

Including Wyatt Barnes, six youth prodigies of the Ninth-Order Enter Void Realm, positioned themselves separately, their eyes focused on the two elders, awaiting the announcement of the rules.

Soon, one of the elders spoke: "The six of you will determine the top six rankings in today’s ’Dynasty Martial Ranking Battle’. The higher the rank, the more rewards you will receive!"

"There are no specific rules in the battles among you... just like the previous ones, you can choose your opponent freely! Whoever chooses the opponent shouldn’t challenge either of the two who have just battled."

"Furthermore, killing is not allowed in the battles among you... this is not to say that we don’t want you to give it your all, just a reminder that once anyone’s opponent is in a mortal danger, we will both step in immediately! Of course, those rescued by us after facing a life-threatening situation will be deemed as defeated."

The two elders supplemented each other’s statements.

Upon hearing this, Wyatt and the others nodded in agreement.

The prohibition of killing in the top six was not surprising for Wyatt.

After all, the top ten youth prodigies selected today are to participate in the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’ a year later.

The performance of these ten youth prodigies at the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’ is linked to the interests of the Great Turdo Dynasty.

It is said that the ’dynasties’ belonging to the top-performing youth prodigies in the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’, can receive third-tier spiritual instruments and precious Tier-Three Pill Medicines bestowed by forces from outside the territory after the meeting concludes.

That’s the reason why each dynasty is eager to participate in the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’.

If there were no benefits, no dynasty would be willing to participate in the perplexing ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’.

For this reason, the Great Turdo Dynasty cannot allow any mishap to occur during the ’Dynasty Martial Battle’, as every one of Wyatt and the others has the potential to contribute to the glory and interests of the Great Turdo Dynasty in the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’ next year.

As for the youth prodigies of the Eighth-Order Enter Void Realm who were killed earlier, they may be outstanding in the ’Dynasty Martial Battle’, but when it comes to the ’Ten Dynasties Martial Meeting’, they are often insignificant.

Their death is unimportant to the ’grand plan’ of the Great Turdo Dynasty.

"Now, the ’Top Six Competition’ begins... who among you will be the first to start the challenge?"

One of the elders raised the question to Wyatt and the others.

Almost at the moment when the elder finished speaking, a figure darted out, arriving at the central area of the arena’s airspace.

It was none other than ’Serenade Nicholson’ of the Nicholson Clan.

Serenade, the son of the Clan Chief and the eldest prodigy of the Nicholson Clan, is also recognized as the leading genius of his generation in the Nicholson Clan.

It was not only that, Serenade was even recognized as the first genius of the Nicholson Clan in the past century.

It can be seen that he is extraordinarily powerful.

Apart from this, Serenade, along with ’Brian Graham’ of the Graham Clan and the second Prince’ Matteo Buckingham’, was also acknowledged as one of the three strongest figures within the current youth generation of the Great Turdo Dynasty.

"Serenade!"

As Serenade was the first to enter the field, the eyes of the other five youth prodigies flashed, aside from the tranquil expressions on Wyatt and Hal Buckingham’s faces.

At this moment, they were all curious as to who Serenade would choose as his opponent.

Serenade’s gaze lingered on the five including Wyatt, seemingly contemplating who to select as his opponent for the first battle.

"Who do you think Serenade will choose?"

At this time, the people around the arena started buzzing.

"Considering his current look, it seems he’s somewhat hesitant... however, I think there’s a bigger chance he’ll choose Wyatt Barnes from the Blackstone Empire."

"I think so too. After all, Wyatt just beat their Nicholson Clan’s second strongest youth, ’Nick Nicholson’."

"Serenade should be seeking revenge for Nick."

...

Many people were speculating.

Most of them believed that Serenade would challenge Wyatt.

Even Wyatt, hearing the increasing speculation around him, felt that Serenade was quite likely to challenge him.

Soon, Wyatt noticed that Serenade’s gaze was fixed.

"Not me?"

When he noticed that Serenade wasn’t looking at him, he couldn’t help but startle, feeling a bit surprised.

At this moment, Serenade’s gaze was fixed on a youth not far away.

"Brian Graham... back then, I fought you twice in succession and lost both times. Later, when I wanted to defeat you and wash away the shame, you left the Capital City and disappeared."

Serenade’s gaze was locked on Brian, he slowly said.

"Today, I will fight you for the third time! I want to defeat you and clear my previous disgraces."

Serenade was brimming with a will to fight.

Whoo!

Brian Graham remained composed, and swiftly moved to the central area of the airspace above the arena, standing opposite Serenade as he was challenged.

"Serenade."

At last, Brian spoke, "Do you know why you lost to me the previous two times? The two times, your strength, just like today, was not weaker than mine."

"Hmph! I don’t need your lectures."

Serenade snorted coldly, raising his hand, a blade shaped like a bright moon appeared in his hand.
