Chapter 5699
- After an hour... The rankings on the scoreboard stopped changing; there was no movement for 15 minutes. Following that, the scoreboard was refreshed. Then, those who ranked in the top 100 were sent to their respective secret realms according to their ranks. ... Those who ranked in the top 10 were transported to a huge cave. It did not take long before they discovered there were only nine of them instead of ten. “There are only nine of us here... Where’s the other person?” After a short moment, someone said, “It’s Jace. He’s not here.” A grey-clad middle-aged man said, “Jace appeared out of nowhere... He even managed to kill the Bodhi Zen Sect’s Edmure.” “Olaf, Edmure’s your senior brother... Did he manage to send a message back to the Bodhi Zen Sect before he was killed by Jace?” A handsome young man dressed in a white robe and holding a fan asked a young monk dressed in black and white kasaya. The white-clad young man had an elegant and noble bearing. He was none other than the inner disciples from the Tao Scholar Profound Sect, Faiz, who was ranked at the top. He was the person who had defeated the pride of the 10,000 Battles Heaven Sect and became the new peerless genius in the upper realm. “No. Senior Edmure didn’t manage to send a message before he died.” The young monk, Olaf, shook his head and sighed. “If he had time to send a message, he would have been able to crush his Identity Jade Token and escape. It’s likely that he didn’t expect that he’d die.” At this moment, a handsome young man asked with a smile, “Faiz, you’re the strongest among us now. Do you think you’re capable of defeating Jace?” The handsome young man seemed rather familiar with Faiz. He was Sam, the son of the Sect Leader of the Hundred Flowers Celestial Sect and a core disciple of the sect. He was also one of the few male disciples in the Hundred Flowers Celestial Sect. At this moment, a beautiful woman with a curvaceous figure could be seen holding Sam’s arm. She was even more eye-catching standing among the crowd of men. She was known as the most beautiful woman in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, Brian. Similar to Sam, she was also from the Hundred Flowers Celestial Sect. In fact, she and Sam were fraternal twins. “I’m not confident.” Faiz waved the fan in his hand and shook his head. “Although I’m confident I’m stronger than Edmure, due to his defenses, it’s impossible for me to kill him...” Many people nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Edmure’s defenses were the best in the upper realm... Even if we were stronger than him, it’d be impossible for us to kill him...” “Where did Jace come from? Why is he so powerful?” Many people were curious about Jace and could not help but wonder about his origin. As time passed, the topic gradually changed from Jace to something else. At this moment, a tall and muscular young man looked at Brian and said with a smile, “Junior Brian, I heard those who had seen the woman, Sia, said that you’re not a match for her. She has to be quite strong to be able to rank 15th on the scoreboard. Moreover, it was her first time entering the upper realm. I’ve also heard that the man by her side, David Bishop, is actually quite useless. He only managed to rank so high because of her.” The muscular young man was Ubbe, a core disciple of the Wind Thunder Dao Sect. “Given the chance, I’d love to meet her.” Brian smiled as her eyes narrowed imperceptibly. “I’d love to see if she’s as strong as the rumor says.” Meanwhile, Faiz shook his head as he looked at Ubbe. “Ubbe, it’s a mistake to underestimate David Bishop... He’s not a simple person. Thirty years ago, he was invincible in the middle realm. This was his first time entering the upper realm, and he has already managed to rank 13th. Do you really think someone like that is a pushover?” Among the people present on the scene, no one knew David Bishop as well as Faiz did. He had long heard of David Bishop before David Bishop had joined the Duncan Mansion and was still in the Simplicity Celestial Sect. However, at that time, he did not think much about David Bishop. David Bishop was just someone who would occasionally come up in his conversation with his good friend, Zack, who was the son of one of the Vice Leaders of the Blood Skull Gang.
