Chapter 1394
After absorbing the Spirit Turtle’s core, the eighth-rank grandmasters must have begun ascending the Skyward Stairway. As James had never fought against grandmasters at such a level, he could not be sure of their strength. He only knew that their existence alone was terrifying.Even for Callan Maverick, James would feel a shiver down his spine whenever he was reminded of the strength Callan demonstrated as a grandmaster who had ascended the second stair of the Skyward Stairway.During the Mount Thunder Conference, Callan was first ambushed by Lucjan Owen, an eighth-rank grandmaster. After being ambushed, he was struck by eight other powerful martial artists. However, despite being gravely injured, he was still able to fight to a standstill against Lucjan. He even participated in the battle against the Spirit Turtle and seized its core. Only after a series of battles did he finally exhaust himself. Such power was truly unparalleled.After absorbing the Spirit Turtle’s core, James cro

“An ancient martial artist from Sol?” James’ appearance attracted the attention of many. A long-haired monk wearing a red tunic walked over to James and scanned him from head to toe. “What is it?” James looked at the strange man before him puzzledly. “Rumors say that the ancient martial artists from Sol are impressive and their martial arts are unparalleled. Before the conference begins, I’d like to warm myself up.” The man clenched his fists.James now understood that the man was trying to pick a fight with him. A crowd formed around the two. Everyone was watching the show in anticipation. The elderly man before James was a martial artist on the Elysian Ranking. Although he was at the bottom of the list, having one’s name listed on the Elysian Ranking was a symbol of strength. “Young man of Sol, know that you will die in my hands. I’m the King of Ozora who’s ranked ninety-eight on the Elysian Ranking,” The elderly man said with a mischievous grin on his face. James

“The Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect?” James momentarily froze before turning around and staring at Thea’s retreating figure. Furrowing his eyebrows, he murmured, “She’s the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect?”He did not think much about it.Then, he turned and looked at Lucjan, who seemed to be in high spirits. His hair was no longer white, and he seemed to look much younger.Wearing a solemn expression, he muttered silently under his breath, “Looks like Lucjan has completely refined and absorbed the Spirit Turtle’s core. Before that, he was already an eighth-rank grandmaster. Who knows which Skyward Stairway stair he’s ascended?”After momentarily freezing, James recollected himself and looked at Lucjan, saying coldly, “I heard I was pursued by your men after being knocked unconscious by Yaakov Johnston.” “Is that so…? Did that happen?” Lucjan looked at his subordinates. They immediately shook their heads. Lucjan said smilingly, “James, don’t allow an individual’s accus
Chapter 1397
As the sun rose, a group of people approached. In their lead was an elderly man wearing a golden robe. He wielded an illuminating two-meter-long sword with mysterious-looking patterns carved on it. Behind the elderly man were eight knights in golden robes. As the elderly man neared, many stood up and gazed at him. He was Koehler Keyes, the leader of the Knights and the wielder of Excalibur, the faith of all knights. He was also ranked second on the Elysian Ranking. Koehler appeared at the summit. Then, in the blink of an eye, he appeared on the empty plot of land in the middle of the summit. Scanning his surroundings, he searched for the man who defeated him a hundred years ago. However, Callan Maverick was nowhere to be seen. There were only a few Solean ancient martial artists in sight. He was dismayed. It seemed that he would not be able to settle the score before his impending death. Although Callan was absent, the International Martial Arts Conference had to go on.“Tha
Chapter 1398
This was the summit of Mount Olympus, a place more than ten thousand meters above sea level. There was an empty and flat land on the summit, which was surrounded by powerful martial artists from all over the world. Some came for Excalibur, while others came for the Elysian Ranking. Some, however, came here to watch the show.On a rock at least twenty meters in height, an elderly man was seated. Wearing a white robe and holding a staff in his hand, he had the appearance of a wizard. At that moment, everyone fixed their gaze on this elderly man. Though the elderly man’s hair was white, he looked spirited and youthful. “Are you Archbishop Polaris?” “Can’t you see the words on my robe?” “That’s the guy ranked third on the Elysian Ranking. Rumors say that he’s been in a closed-door meditation in the Polaris Sect and hasn’t wandered outside for a century. Though he looks older than he did a hundred years ago, he still seems to be much more youthful now. Looks like his strength h
Chapter 1399
“Did you not?” Furrowing his eyebrows, James took Delilah’s photo out and tossed it to Archbishop Polaris, saying, “Take a good look at this.” Archbishop Polaris caught the photo and scrutinized Delilah’s appearance, shaking his head. “I’ve never seen her.” “Impossible,” James argued. “The Archbishop of St. Anne’s Castle told me that you were the one who took them away. He even specifically mentioned that it was Archbishop Polaris, ranked third on the Elysian Ranking, who took them away.” “I am Archbishop Polaris, alright. I’m also ranked third on the Elysian Ranking. However, I have no idea what you’re talking about.” “You have no idea?” James’ face darkened, and he clenched the Blade of Justice, saying coldly, “Maybe you’ll be reminded of something when you’re beaten to a pulp?” “Hahaha…” Archbishop Polaris burst into a peal of laughter. “How insolent of you, young man! No one has dared speak to me like that in a hundred years. Beat me to a pulp? How impudent! If you
Chapter 1400
James had come here in search of someone. He followed the tracks all the way to Mount Olympus and found Archbishop Polaris of the Polaris Sect. However, the Archbishop did not know anything about Delilah. From his expression, he did not seem to be lying. However, since the Archbishop promised he would search for Delilah if James could beat him to a pulp, James brandished the Blade of Justice. This was the first time he was facing an opponent after crossing into the eighth rank.Looking at Archbishop Polaris who was wearing a mischievous grin, James said coldly, “Cut the crap and fight already.” “I’ll go easy on you, kid. If you can approach me, I’ll consider this my loss.” Polaris was confident. To him, James was only an impudent child who needed to be taught a lesson. As an elder, he should not go all out to prevent harming James. After all, everyone was watching. His reputation would be tarnished if he did so. He simply tossed the staff in his hand to the back, which landed

James’ reaction was so swift that it caught Polaris off guard. Polaris froze. By the time he recollected himself, it was already too late. Since his arm was grabbed, he could not dodge James’ attack. He could only raise the other arm and blocked James’ attack forcefully. Boom! Two powerful True Energies collided, and the sound of an explosion reverberated throughout the mountains. At that moment, unable to withstand the blow, Polaris staggered backward. Even the rocks on the ground were shattered into a million tiny pieces. Polaris retreated by about thirty meters before he could finally deflect James’ blow. His arm was numb, unable to exert even a single ounce of strength. The Blood Energy inside his body churned. Though he hurriedly catalyzed True Energy, he could not completely suppress it. Blergh! He vomited a mouthful of blood. Meanwhile, James remained standing at the same spot, unmoving. The crowd fell silent. Before the battle, no one believed James could win. T
