Chapter 843: Chapter 837: Alliance and Balancing Strategy
“Bella Wanton!”
Seeing a familiar face appear, a trace of surprise flashed in David Jones’s eyes.
At this ti, Bella Wanton should be busy refining the Purple Fire Pill, how could she have the ti to co to Blunt College.
He was counting on the Purple Fire Pill to co into his hands quickly, so he could start refining the Void Calamity Crystal to enhance his Arcane Star Cultivation.
“Auntie, that’s David Jones,” Bella whispered.
In fact, no introduction was necessary; Camilla Wanton spotted David Jones’s extraordinariness in the crowd at a glance.
After all, there were very few strongn who could have the high-ranked officials of both Glazewater and Blunt Colleges personally receive them.
Setting aside Audrey Harvey, whom she knew, the identity of this young man, surrounded by stars, spoke for itself.
“Interesting, that Flood Dragon actually managed to put so pressure on the Eternal Fla Emperor Phoenix. It seems the recent rumors about the Destruction Tyrant Dragon in Rosewood City are true,” Camilla’s gaze swept over David Jones’s wrist.
As one of the high-ranking officials of Phoenix College, she was privy to many insider ssages from the Federation of Trainer Guild.
For instance, the Emperor Dragon that David had slain only had a Strength Level of Class VII apex, but its dragon bloodline was so noble it could exert the formidable combat strength comparable to an ordinary Level VIII Emperor Dragon.
Therefore, Camilla was not impressed by the so-called Dragon Subduing Deity.
A Class VII apex Emperor Dragon, no matter how noble its bloodline ranking was, could only fall reluctantly under the flas of the Eternal Fla Emperor Phoenix.
The only thing she truly feared about David was the Destruction Demon Dragon that existed only in legends.
After all, a pet from the Annihilation type had never appeared dostically, and the evolution of the Destruction Tyrant Dragon was a research project that even Dr. Lee had not managed to complete!
No matter how much of the Destruction Demon Dragon’s might that Dark Flood Dragon inherited, she could not afford to take it lightly.
Camilla certainly did not want to be defeated by a junior who didn’t even add up to the fraction of her own age because of carelessness.
“Should we go up and say hello?” she asked her niece.
Bella nodded slightly and then walked towards David Jones with Camilla leading the way.
“Long ti no see, how is the preparation of the Purple Fire Pill?” David asked bluntly.
Upon hearing this, Bella was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, “It’s almost ready.”
“Step!”
“Step!”
“Step!”
At that mont, crisp footsteps ca.
The doors of Star Moving Hall slowly opened, and in walked a middle-aged man dressed in a simple gray robe.
He had a solemn face, deep-set eyes, and a wrinkle etched between his brows, his striking silver-white hair shimring with a faint cold light like silverware, which, along with the grueso scar on his chest, sent a chill down one’s spine.
David’s brows furrowed slightly, and he instantly rembered this was a key figure ntioned by his teacher, a threat just behind Pratt Goldsmith, the Deputy Director of the Beastmaster Departnt at Glazewater College: Bond Grant.
He was the Beast Tar who broke through to Legendary status the fastest within the last thousand years of the Star Calendar. His iconic Emperor pet, Azure-eyed, was trendously powerful; it once used the vast power of the sea to block a blow from an Eighth Order Quasi-God, earning the title of “Sea-covered Deity” from the holy spirit!
It was only because there was no vast ocean inside Buried Land, which caused Azure-eyed to lose the ho ground advantage, greatly diminishing its strength. Otherwise, Bond Grant’s threat could have even surpassed Pratt Goldsmith to be ranked first.
Bond Grant looked around the hall and spoke, “Good, all the competitors are basically here except for Pratt Goldsmith.”
“Before we enter Buried Land, shall we have a little sparring first?”
After he spoke, Bond Grant’s gaze swept over phisto Ken, Leonid Roland, David Jones, and Camilla Wanton one by one.
“You can choose to co at one by one, of course, or you can choose to team up. It’s all the sa to .”
No sooner had these words been spoken than the epic strongn in the room all widened their eyes in disbelief, their faces showing incredulity.
Arrogant!
Utterly arrogant!
To boldly challenge four Legendary Beast Tars all by himself, even as the Sea-covered Deity, he surely couldn’t have the slightest chance of winning!
The crowd exchanged looks, all of them deeming Bond Grant’s move ill-advised.
“The path to becoming an Overlord opens tomorrow; can’t you even wait that long?” Leonid Roland said sternly.
As a fellow deputy director of the Beastmaster Departnt, Leonid Roland wouldn’t allow Bond Grant to be so reckless in front of everyone.
Otherwise, others might really think that Blunt Colledge is afraid of Glazewater College.
“It’s just a friendly spar,” Bond Grant said calmly.
Camilla Wanton chuckled lightly, interrupting the confrontational atmosphere between Leonid Roland and Bond Grant.
“This concubine isn’t so idle. When fate leads us to the Buried Land, then I will look forward to witnessing Sir Bond’s Azure-eyed prowess. I hope you won’t disappoint .”
After speaking, she turned and left with the students from Phoenix Colledge.
“Let’s go, Audrey,” David Jones said.
He wasn’t very interested in sparring; he’d rather spend his free ti to further strengthen his Dragon Crystals so that Lolo could evolve in the best possible condition.
…
Under phisto Ken’s guidance, the two of them arrived at a bottomless canyon.
Within the canyon, space was chaotic and twisted, refracting strange colors in the sunlight. Through these mysterious and unpredictable glimrs, David Jones felt as though he could see a gateway to another dinsional world.
This place was the outskirts of the Buried Land.
“Whoosh!”
Hearing the occasional sound of flowing water nearby sparked a curiosity in David Jones’s eyes.
“Roar.” (The water of the Life-giving River flowing deep within the Buried Land is an eighth-order legendary resource. If pets successfully consu it, it can greatly stimulate their potential.)
The Gluttonous Beast’s voice echoed in David Jones’s mind.
“And if it fails?” David Jones raised an eyebrow.
The effect of this Life-giving River water sounded sowhat similar to dragon-wielding power.
“Roar.” (Direct demise.)
The Gluttonous Beast replied.
“The two of you will be staying at Round Valley,” said phisto Ken.
As phisto Ken’s voice rang out, the ground began to tremble. Great waves of sand rose from the earth and converged into two Quicksand Crystal Birds with apparent sentience.
“I have an urgent matter to attend to. These two crystal birds will take you to your accommodations,” he said, pausing for a mont. “The path to becoming an Overlord will officially open at nine o’clock tomorrow morning. Missing the ti will be viewed as forfeiting your spot, so please be mindful, Deity Jones.”
With that, phisto Ken’s figure disappeared from sight.
“It seems Blunt Colledge really values this session of the path to becoming an Overlord,” Audrey Harvey said with a smile. “They even omitted the usual welcoming banquet.”
“Roar.”
The Gluttonous Beast’s eyes widened, feeling as though it had missed out on a rare feast.
“Squeak.”
Rainbow took out a Flaless Dragon Scale and stuffed it into the Gluttonous Beast’s mouth, using force to ensure its silence.
…
Blunt Colledge’s office.
phisto Ken looked at the dust-covered Leonid Roland and asked, “How do you feel?”
“I’m no match for Bond Grant; he does have so reason to be arrogant,” Leonid Roland said as he glanced at his Star Ring.
“You’ve misunderstood; I’m asking about David Jones. Bond Grant can be handled by Pratt Goldsmith,” phisto Ken shook his head.
“I’m confident I can defeat David Jones, but if he chooses to evade, it would be difficult to finish the battle quickly,” Leonid Roland said cautiously.
“For safety’s sake, it’s best we join forces to eliminate the weakest, David Jones, first, then deal with Pratt Goldsmith together with Camilla Wanton.”
“Agreed, I’ll communicate with Camilla Wanton,” phisto Ken exhaled deeply.
