Chapter 871: Chapter 871: Battle of the Five Peaks

"It’s time to end this."

Wyatt Barnes glanced at Brady Yellow, who was still buzzing around like a headless fly, gave a faint smile, and then soared into action.

In a moment, he was at Brady Yellow’s side.

Yet Brady was completely unaware, still punching the air with the force of a collapsing mountain, unleashing waves of power like earth dragons bursting forth from their burrows.

Boom!

Wyatt casually struck with a palm, hitting Brady Yellow’s back and sending him flying.

As Brady Yellow was sent flying, his face turned red, and he couldn’t help spitting out a mouthful of congested blood. Then, turning around, he yelled, "Who?! Who is helping Wyatt Barnes?!"

Watching Brady Yellow looking towards him, Wyatt shook his head with a smile.

In the illusion where Brady was, there was no one on Wyatt’s side.

Seeing Brady Yellow looking around, apparently trying to find who had ambushed him, Wyatt shook his head with a smile, then withdrew his Soul Technique ’Thousand Illusions,’ causing the space of the illusion to disintegrate.

At the same time, he appeared right before Brady Yellow’s eyes.

"You... how can you be here?"

Brady Yellow saw Wyatt Barnes as if he had seen a ghost.

Then, in a panic, he looked back, only to find that there was no one behind him.

"Impossible! How can you be so fast?! Unless you’re a Transforming Void Realm powerhouse, your speed couldn’t be this fast!"

Brady Yellow continually shook his head, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

"Ha-ha... Brady, are you convinced now?"

At this moment, Noel Walton stepped into the Martial Arts Performance Field and stood beside Wyatt Barnes, grinning at Brady Yellow, "I have to say, you’re indeed quite strong..."

"But you should know, Wyatt Barnes once single-handedly killed eight formidable bandits! Among those eight, there were three at the ’Cave Void Realm Sextuple’ level."

Noel Walton recounted Wyatt Barnes’s past ’achievements.’

"What?!"

Brady Yellow’s pupils shrank, his face showing shock, and then he looked at Wyatt Barnes, taking a sharp breath, "You... you couldn’t possibly be a ’Transforming Void Realm powerhouse,’ could you?"

"Do you think... if I were a Transforming Void Realm powerhouse, you could be a match for me with just a single move?"

Wyatt Barnes shook his head with a smile, finding this Brady Yellow to be incredibly naive.

To put it bluntly, he was simple-minded!

"Brady, Wyatt Barnes is just like you, a warrior at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’ level,"

Noel Walton said with a smile.

"Impossible!"

Brady Yellow decisively shook his head, "He can’t be at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’ level! To defeat me on the ground, at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’ level, he would need to have understood a ’Middle Stage Earth realm’ of the sixth level or above, or other ’Middle Stage Ninth Level realms.’

Brady Yellow was still very confident in his own strength.

"Moreover, the speed at which he moved from there to here was very fast, so fast that I couldn’t react in time... Only a Transforming Void Realm powerhouse could achieve that in front of me."

Brady Yellow stated confidently.

Noel Walton was somewhat speechless at Brady Yellow’s stubbornness.

Yet he still stated the truth, "What if I told you that just now, Wyatt Barnes confused you with an ’illusion’ before striking you?"

"That is to say, the ’Wyatt Barnes’ you’ve been attacking wasn’t the real Wyatt Barnes at all, but a figment created by the illusion... In the world we saw, you were attacking thin air,"

Noel Walton said in one breath.

"Illusion?"

Brady Yellow furrowed his brow and then looked at Noel Walton skeptically, "I didn’t sense any fluctuation of Inscriptions or Inscription arrays just now... It couldn’t have been an ’illusion’!"

"Unless this Wyatt Barnes is a transformed Odd Species with the power to construct ’illusions’ with mental abilities,"

Brady Yellow added.

"I’ve said before, Wyatt Barnes’s true cultivation is only at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’... Have you ever heard of ’Odd Species’?"

Noel Walton shook his head and finally revealed Wyatt Barnes’s ’identity.’

"Odd Species?!"

Brady Yellow frowned, muttering to himself, "I think I’ve heard of it before... Wait, let me think."

As he spoke, Brady Yellow fell into deep thought.

"What a dizzy big guy!"

Daisy Wood stuck out her tongue playfully and couldn’t help but snort.

Wyatt Barnes shook his head and then walked out of the Martial Arts Performance Field, only to realize that Elder Sun, Ableton Sun, had arrived at some point. He smiled and greeted him, "Elder Sun."

"Wyatt Barnes, you’re at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’ level, and you created an ’illusion’ with your natural Divine Ability that could affect a Cave Void Realm Sextuple level warrior?"

Ableton Sun asked in disbelief, clearly having heard Noel Walton’s explanation just now.

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded with a smile, "Although my cultivation is at the ’Cave Void Realm Quintuple’ level, my spiritual power is higher because I’ve consumed a spirit fruit that enhances the soul."

"Ha-ha..."

Ableton Sun laughed heartily, "It seems that this time the ’Battle of the Five Peaks’ is going to be quite a spectacle."

"The Battle of the Five Peaks?"

Hearing Elder Sun’s words, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but be stunned, "What’s that?"

"The Battle of the Five Peaks is an upcoming competition for the younger generation within the Five Elements Sect, quite different from the usual ones... In the Battle of the Five Peaks, we not only decide individual strength rankings, but each peak will also send out their three strongest young talents to compete in team battles with the other peaks."

"Eventually, the rankings of the peaks will be reordered, based on the rankings of individual as well as team strength!"

Briggs Colby explained with a smile.

In his view.

This time’s Battle of the Five Peaks, for Niklaus Woodson, was an opportunity, an opportunity to reclaim glory.

"I’ve decided to join you guys for the fun,"

Ableton Sun said.

At the same time, his eyes were fixed tightly on Wyatt Barnes, flickering with ’expectation’, hoping that Wyatt would secure a good position for Niklaus Woodson in this ’Battle of the Five Peaks’.

"I remember now!"

Suddenly, a voice like thunder came.

It was Brady Yellow in the Martial Arts Performance Field who had recovered his senses, looking at Wyatt Barnes as if he were seeing a monster, exclaiming, "So you’re an Odd Species! That means the ’illusion’ you created before to affect me, was that your talent’s Divine Ability?"

Divine Ability?

Wyatt Barnes smiled without confirming or denying.

Some matters, being misunderstood, aren’t necessarily a bad thing.

However, Wyatt’s smile, in Brady’s eyes, was undoubtedly an acknowledgment.

"How old are you this year?"

Before long, Brady came up beside Wyatt, his piercing gaze on him, "You look to be only around twenty-five...Your real age must be over thirty, right?"

"Twenty-eight,"

Wyatt Barnes said with a shrug.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Brady Yellow was shocked, "You...you’re younger than me? I’m thirty-one already. Monster! You are the true monster!"

By the end, Brady Yellow cursed with a grin.

Wyatt Barnes smiled and shook his head.

He was used to these reactions.

However, what Wyatt Barnes was used to didn’t mean Daisy Wood was, and upon hearing Brady Yellow’s ’curse’ at Wyatt, she immediately became unhappy.

"You’re the monster! Your whole family is full of monsters!"

The current Daisy Wood was entirely like a mother leopard defending her cub.

Seeing this, Ableton Sun and Briggs Colby laughed heartily, amused by Daisy Wood.

Wyatt Barnes and Noel Walton couldn’t help but smile as well, both turning to look at Brady Yellow, curious about how he would respond.

Brady Yellow was left speechless, at a loss for words.

In his view,

The way he ’cursed’ Wyatt Barnes was also a kind of peculiar compliment, right?

Knowing that when people called him ’monster’ in the past, he was always pleased, because it meant he was outstanding and unique.

"When do you plan to depart?"

Ableton Sun looked at Briggs Colby and asked.

"Tomorrow, I guess,"

Briggs Colby said.

The next morning, a group of people set out from Andington headed for the Five Elements Sect.

No sooner had the five left the city than a middle-aged man emerged from a hidden spot and returned to Andington, going straight to a vast estate, entering a backyard garden.

"Elder Don,"

The middle-aged man stood outside the arbour in the backyard, respectfully saluting the elder inside.

"Have you found their whereabouts?"

The elder, who was playing chess by himself, Earth Peak’s Elder Matthew Don, slowly lifted his head and asked in a deep voice.

"No,"

The middle-aged man shook his head, then added, "However, Briggs Colby brought people back to the Sect today... the two of them didn’t return with Briggs Colby, I’m afraid it’s more likely to be bad news."

Whoosh!

Matthew Don suddenly rose from his seat, his eyes flashing with a cold light, speaking in a grave tone, "Niklaus Woodson, what a bold move! To dare touch my Earth Peak disciples."

Seeing Matthew Don losing his composure, the middle-aged man felt speechless inside.

You’ve sent someone to infiltrate Niklaus Woodson as a spy, and yet you don’t allow them to clean up their own house?

Of course, these were thoughts he dared only keep to himself, never voicing them out loud.

"The ones traveling with Briggs Colby... aside from Noel Walton, was there another young man who looked around twenty-five years old?"

Matthew Don took a deep breath, his piercing gaze on the middle-aged man as he asked.

"I didn’t dare get too close, I didn’t see his face clearly... Also, it wasn’t just one person traveling with Briggs Colby and Noel Walton, but four."

The middle-aged man replied further.

"Four people?"

Matthew Don frowned. "Who else was there?"

"One of them is Elder Sun, the person in charge of the Niklaus Woodson outpost in Andington... As for the three others, all were new faces, one of them quite tall,"

The middle-aged man recounted what he had seen.

"Elder Sun, that old fellow?"

Matthew Don’s expression darkened. "That old fellow actually left ’Andington’ and went back to the Sect with Briggs Colby? Could it be he thinks that just with the help of Wyatt Barnes, Niklaus Woodson can turn the tables in this ’Battle of the Five Peaks’?"

"Hmph! Elder Sun, Briggs Colby... I’ll make sure you understand that all your efforts with Niklaus Woodson will only end up benefiting us, Earth Peak, in the end!"

Matthew Don snorted, mumbling to himself, and then, in a flash, he vanished from the arbour in the backyard.

"I’m going back to the Sect... You will take charge of things here in Andington."

At the same time, Matthew Don’s voice reached the middle-aged man’s ears.
