Divine Emperor of Death

Davis also arrived within the inner hall of the Zyrus Family's Palace that hosted the twenty-seven powers who were joining the alliance and also some other powers that arrived from individual characters being present.

He saw that the fifth segment, Essence Prowess, was over already in the brief time he went to 'shit'.

Of course, he also brought back Drake, Panqa, and Lanqua along with him, causing his borrowed construct to be left empty and secured.

Nonetheless, he saw the scoreboard, and his eyes widened a bit in astonishment.

[Cyan Soul Rat Clan - 4 wins]

[Blazing Thunderlight Sect - 1 win]

[Starlight Jade Wolf Clan - 2 wins]

[Zyrus Family - 1 win]

[Obsidian Crystal Turtle Clan - 1 win]

[Golden Crow Clan - 4 wins]

[Goldlust Rat Clan - 1 win]

[Dark Void Flame Tribe - 1 win]

[Evernight Phantasm Spirit Tribe - 1 win]

[Lumin Family - 3 wins]

[Bloodcloud Family - 1 win]

[Minn Family - 6 wins]

His gaze then fell on a power, looking at the silver-haired battered figure whose white robes were bloodied but also made him appear staunch.

That silver-haired man was none other than Haijin Minn.

Davis couldn't believe that Haijin Minn had defeated six heavenly geniuses at this stage. This made him think that the latter has probably unlocked the full potential of his darkness variant yang-attributed physique.

Even the way he healed made Davis feel quite taken aback as four beauties surrounded him, extending their hands towards him as they shared their light energy with him.

"..."

It made many people envious.

"Is he my rival...?"

Drake muttered under his breath as he rubbed his chin, causing Davis to silently laugh before he shrugged, "Perhaps, but you are nowhere near him in cultivation in the first place."

The two of them returned back to the Starlight Jade Wolf King and unceremoniously sat beside him, causing the Starlight Jade Wolf King to blink as he thought that youngsters surely do take a yard when given an inch.

Nonetheless, he couldn't help but smirk at Mo Tian.

"Did you do something to the twins?"

"We had a good talk."

"Hmph! Be more of a man and embrace them."

The Starlight Jade Wolf King slapped Mo Tian's shoulder, causing the latter's expression to twitch while Panqa and Lanqua went deep red, looking at the Starlight Jade Wolf King as though they were going to bite his head off as this was embarrassing them publicly.

However, with the Starlight Jade Wolf King's words, everyone came to know that nothing happened between them.

'Perhaps, he really just went to shit and wanted some disposable guards who could die in his stead in case of being attacked by assassins...?'

Many people couldn't help but think, wondering if Mo Tian was a calculative person.

Still, they didn't doubt his intentions much as it was becoming more pronounced that he was a potential Saint. Such a person couldn't be evil even if they were calculative. They imagined that Saints would only be calculative in order to heal more people.

Nonetheless, Davis saw that the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan didn't win the top three in this segment, which meant they essentially failed in this segment as they wouldn't be receiving any votes. However, the Cyan Soul Rat Clan didn't seem to gain an edge either, as they were actually sitting in second place, which only gave them two votes.

With these two votes, the Cyan Soul Rat Clan could not possibly surpass the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan even if they end up coming first. Utmost, they could only tie for first place.

But still, looking at the Starlight Jade Wolf King, Davis saw that he was completely at ease. He also noticed something else.

"Wolf King, you didn't send your Clan Lord to battle?"

Davis saw that there the Clan Lord of the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan simply sat while possessing an indifferent expression on his face. It was like he didn't care about losing at all, which made Davis think that he wasn't sent to battle.

"Indeed. You're very perceptive, Mo Tian." The Starlight Jade Wolf King praised him, "You already got us to the top, so why bother revealing our young Clan Lord's prowess, wasting his trump cards like all others did? I also don't want to reveal our immortal inheritors' prowess, so I'm thinking about whether to send them or not."

"But that would mean you could possibly fall to the second place..."

Currently, the number of votes the powers possessed were: Starlight Jade Wolf Clan - 11, Cyan Soul Rat Clan - 8, Lumin Family - 6, Zyrus Family - 4, Bloodcloud Family - 4, Minn Family - 4, Golden Crow Clan - 3...

If the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan failed the sixth segment, then it was possible that they could possibly fall to second place. After all, there was the possibility that the Cyan Soul Rat Clan could always buy the votes of their subordinates or some powers!

However, looking at the Starlight Jade Wolf King remaining calm, Davis wondered if he had already made some kind of agreement with the Lumin Family and the Minn Family. After all, the latter two powers had combined votes of 10, leaving them a force to be reckoned with as they could trade their votes with each other.

Still, if this was the case, then the Cyan Soul Rat Clan and the Zyrus Family, not to mention their subordinate powers, would also surely have a big amount of votes in their hands, essentially making them have the most say.

"..."

The waters ran deep here, causing Davis to feel that it was dirtier than mud.

"Now then, we had an unexpected performance from a provincial power. Once again, I would like to make it clear that although Haijin Minn belongs to the Aurora Cloud Gate, he is still a member of the Minn Family, so the rules state that his battles are valid."

Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus arrived on the stage and started delivering his speech.

"However, moving forward, I would like to propose that in any such battles in the future, a power is only allowed to use one outsider who belongs to their power but is affiliated with some other power currently, a single time. They cannot use such a person for any other battles in order to maintain fairness unless a provision is made and accepted by all powers in the alliance, like the exceptional case of Mo Tian."

As Patriarch Yinakin Zyrus mentioned Davis, he turned to look at him.

"Mo Tian, I'm aware that you wouldn't be able to experience the thirst you need from battling these youngsters with your superior prowess, but you could definitely be quenched by the immortal inheritors present here. However, since you're not an immortal inheritor and aren't an Immortal King, I'm afraid that you would have to, unfortunately, sit the next segment out."

"Ah, I'm so glad that I don't have to publicly lose face for losing with my lesser cultivation."

"Ahaha~"

Mo Tian sighed loudly, causing many to laugh, but many also got his meaning as Mo Tian was stating that if they still wanted to battle him when he had a lesser cultivation base than the youths present here, which made the others burst into laughter as his humorous statement on unfairness was on point.

After all, Mo Tian was always the weaker cultivator in terms of cultivation base, no matter the battle he fought. However, despite laughing at his joke, they still did think that Mo Tian wouldn't be able to beat the immortal inheritors.

After all, the weakest of them did say to possess that was five levels higher in the Immortal King Stage! That was not a small feat. After all, the term heavenly geniuses were also used for Immortal Kings whose prowess was four levels higher.

"..."

Once they realized this again, their hearts shook, knowing these monsters were created from millions of years of nurturing sleep in the Heavenly Ice Stasis Valley!
