The Chaos Dragon Prince

Heaven Sky Planet, Azure Lightning City.

Time gradually moved on until two weeks passed since the Crypt Grave was unsealed. During the midst of this week, the whole City was actually embroiled in budding excitement.

Every Martial Sect, Class-level Family, and Clans were all fervently anticipating the Spirit Annual Exchange Event! This is the only time within several years where all across the City can witness the mysterious techniques World Spirit Masters learn and crafted.

All Spirit Arts shown are incomparably mystical, providing outstanding benefits that seemed straight-up magical to some.

Martial Cultivators may have their own high perception, allowing them to grasp profound traits unavailable to ordinary mortals.

But not even they can perceive the type of Spirit Energy that goes into each Spirit Arts.

The only way to understand is to become a World Spirit Master themselves. And accomplishing such a task is near impossible, even for the Sage Core powerhouses.

Even for the people who were born with an innate Spirit Space, awakening their Spirit Core is still an immense challenge.

With all this secrecy surrounding World Spirit Masters, it was inevitable many wanted to see their means up close.

The excitement permeating the City was no less than a grand Martial tournament! Typically excitement would always run this high. But for this specific Spirit Annual Exchange event, everyone was hype to see the performance of the two newest World Spirit Masters.

These two World Spirit Masters had an immense rise to fame within only the short duration they came to Azure Lightning City.

And, of course, they were Cain and Kali.

Because of the words from official, high-ranking World Spirit Masters, everyone expected to see outrageous results.

After all, these two were directly quoted to be the most outstanding Spirit Talent since 10,000 years ago!

Such a statement couldn't be treated lightly at all.

Along with the simmering excitement to see a spectacular show, there was another critical reason Martial cultivators alike anticipate this event.

That is, forming direct connections to the World Spirit Masters who managed to make it on the top 100 Spirit Rankings!

These World Spirit Masters would be the cream of the corp, nearly the best the rest of the City have available to them.

Below the Senior World Spirit Masters, these top 100s would be all Martial Cultivator's next best option. After all, wanting to simply gain in contact with a Senior World Spirit Master takes an astronomical sum of resources.

These Senior World Spirit Masters aren't quite like top-tier Martial powerhouses. They weren't common as clouds, and it takes an immense amount of time to correctly foster one.

This is why if one wanted a request from a Senior World Spirit Master, they better be prepared to use a deadly cost of funding.

Furthermore, it wasn't even guaranteed if one could see a Senior World Spirit Master no matter if they have the correct amount of resources.

Nearly all Senior World Spirit Masters have a domineering temperament that they forged from within their Souls after hundreds of years of rigorous practice. Their time was precocious and couldn't be wasted for even a single moment.

And with the strength of Senior World Spirit Masters plus their powerfully mystical means that are very useful to all Martial Cultivators, there wasn't anything that could be done about their rigid attitudes.

But of course, not all World Spirit Masters can or will have this attitude.

The eager World Spirit Masters who participated in the Spirit Annual Exchange event wanted to prove themselves to the higher Seniors and the whole City.

This way, depending on their results, these World Spirit Masters can receive favorable treatments from the higher-ups and form direct business connections with various Martial organizations.

For them, it was like killing two birds in one stone. Not only will they gain better resources from their Seniors but they can also make a name for themselves and receive unique resources from Martial organizations.

In a way, the Spirit Annual Exchange event can be considered a turning point for any aspiring World Spirit Masters.

And for such enormous magnitude of an event, numerous World Spirit Masters fervently threw themselves to Spirit practice.

Many World Spirit Masters were feeling a significant deal amount of pressure because of Cain and Kali.

Even when knowing and personally witnessing Great Spirit Master Bellax's energy projection of their Spirit test, these World Spirit Masters weren't content in simply letting the sibling duo overtake them.

Just like Martial geniuses, each of them has their engraved pride, wanting to surpass all of their fierce rivals. Many believe the time that Cain and Kali started the Spiritual Road was far too short compared to them.

In the future, they may be surpassed, but as of now, the results are unknown!

After all, it wasn't like either Cain or Kali displayed any monumental feats concerning Spirit Energy.

Most of their feats come from their Martial prowess, and the only Spirit feat they have is their Spirit test.

Under this vague veil of uncertainty, many World Spirit has high hopes to take the 1st place spot!

…

On this day, the Spirit Annual Exchange Event was mere hours away from occurring.

Azure Lightning City was in bustling excitement; everyone was gearing to hand to the Spirit Central Grand Plaza.

And at this time, far into the northern district, was the behemoth of all Martial Sects in the City, the Azure Lightning Sect.

The Azure Lightning Sect was luxuriously designed in a shimmering Azure glow that seemed to emit a dangerously sharp sensation.

If one were to carelessly peer into the building's Azure glow, any weaker cultivator would feel a sharp, sudden pain in their eyes, as if they were gazing upon a flashing Lightning strike.

Even just the general Aura of the Azure Lightning Sect would be enough to ward off anyone unworthy to step foot here.

At this time, deep within the Azure Lightning Sect, inside one of their imperial chambers, two extraordinary men were meeting.

One was a young, domineering-looking youth who practically oozed a proudful air.

This young man carried a sharp, indifferent expression as if he could look down upon the whole world. Combined with his devilish sharp looks and luxuriously azure-colored robes, this young man naturally exuded an extraordinary presence.

No Profound Soul genius would be able to directly look him in the eye.

Across from this young man was an older man who seemed a bit average compared to most other Martial cultivators.

His face only looked a bit better than the average one; his Aura was calmly reserved, barely letting anything leak out from him.

If one didn't have a Spirit Sense, they could easily mistake this man as someone just completely average.

However, this man was the farthest thing from being average.

Even the Azure Lightning Sect Master has to pay deep respect to him. For as this man was Senior Elder from the World Spirit Master!

His clothes were a unique combination of the World Spirit Master uniform and the Azure Lightning Sect's unique robe.

This man was referred to by all as Spirit Elder Jiang.

And as Spirit Elder Jiang stared at the domineering-looking youth across from him, an appraising light shimmered within his eyes. His lips curled in the faintest of smiles, obviously satisfied with this youth's progress.

"Joel, in just a few hours from now, the Spirit Annual Exchange event will begin. And as you know, the number of people watching will be unfathomable. So tell me, how far has your Azure Lighting Arts come along? I already sense that your foundation is deeply solid." Spirit Elder Jiang immediately asked upon starting the meeting.

The young man, Joel, took a moment to order his thoughts before saying, "Thanks to the training realm, I've managed to touch upon the threshold for the third level. And my Lightning Law is nearing Large success. Against any other Early Stage Innate Lords, I can hardly find a match."

"Mn. That's perfect." Spirit Elder Jiang proudly nodded. "Out of all Talents here, the only thing limiting you is your age. At the same age and cultivation, even the likes of Qian Lu would be eventually surpassed."

At such high-level praise, any genius should be incredibly excited and proud. Gaining the recognition of a Senior World Spirit Master is a monumental task as they all have such high-level standards.

Furthermore, the Azure Lightning Sect represents the very top of Martial prowess within the City. Whether it's combat strength, Martial perception properties, or Law comprehension and perception, nearly all of the time, the Azure Lightning Sect simply couldn't be suppressed.

Even if places like Crimson Sea Academy, the Martial Immortal Valley, or the Jade Sword Palace produce a rare genius that can eclipse a majority of the Azure Lightning Sect talents, they would soon fall behind their peak-tier talents!

Undoubtedly, Joel's level of Martial Talent is worthy of immense pride.

However, Joel didn't seem happy or even prideful at all over this acceptance. His mind was instead entirely focused on two topics that neither he nor anyone else could forget.

When thinking about these two, his indifferent eyes shone in a vague cold light.

After a moment, Joel asked, "Thank you for the praise, Uncle. But…are you sure those two will show up to the event? And will I be able to challenge at least one of them?"

Spirit Elder Jiang smiled, his eyes also flashing in a curious light. "Make no mistake, they will be there. Great Spirit Master Bellax is personally training them. No matter how early they came upon the Spiritual Road, under her guidance, the disparity can easily be made up. As for challenging, I'm positive at least the boy will accept. Compared to his sister, he seems far more open to socializing with others. Furthermore, their Martial prowess feat is only known to Crimson Sea Academy. Today, for both Martial and Spiritual, we shall see how far their talent extends."

As Joel listened, his indifferent face started to slowly form a smirk full of unwavering confidence. His head stayed held up high as he could already imagine challenging the so-called heaven-defying geniuses in front of the whole City.

"To think those two can go so long and practically ignore everyone. Everything known about them is getting so glorified by the rumors. They're even coming to believe that they're far better than our Azure Lightning Sect! When I beat him, I hope that supposedly cold woman will accept my challenge."

The will to face off against the supposed highest Martial Talent in the City was Joel and many other Azure Lightning Sect's disciples' deep desires of their Martial Hearts.

As the number one sect for centuries, these geniuses have pride engraved deep into their bones.

To be so ruthlessly surpassed by two unknowns who haven't even displayed any true feats yet is simply unfathomable to accept!

But no matter these genius disciples' desires, it wasn't easy at all to gain contact with the sibling duo. After all, their masters were the terrifying Discipline Lord Alisha and even the more terrifying Great Spirit Master Beallx!

They can be unwilling to accept, but they all have to admit their status is faintly suppressed by the sibling duo.

Thus, the Spirit Annual Exchange Event became the golden opportunity to see if the so-called great heaven-defying talent can really fight a great realm above.

As Spirit Elder Jiang saw the blazing fighting spirit and confidence in Joel's eyes, his smile just slightly tightened.

Slight concerns ran through his mind, and he cautiously warned, "Do not underestimate either of them. When you fight, you must bring out your full force. I've personally witnessed their Spirit test and felt their Spiritual Might. It is legitimately something that no regular special genius can have. As for Martial Prowess, I'm not entirely sure. But from my sources, I can confirm that the boy managed to beat one of Hiyashi Estate's strongest geniuses within just two moves. And that Vampire boy was a peak Stage Profound Soul genius."

"Just two moves and peak Stage, huh?" Joel didn't feel the faintest of ripples. His lips still confidently curled. "At best from a High-Class level Family, their geniuses wouldn't have outrageous combat prowess. But even if he did, that is still just within the Profound Soul Realm. The power of Innate Qi and the Power of a Minor Law, it isn't something that they can hope to match."

Spirit Elder Jiang just gave a simple smile in encouragement. But deep within his Martial Heart, he couldn't quite say why but he felt a strange sensation bubbling about the upcoming battles.
