Supreme Tamer - Chapter 625
Chapter 625: Chapter 496: Xia Guanghan, Tenfold Retribution
Below the Tian Shou Mountain, in a courtyard with a spring pool.
Four high-ranking officials from the Soul Alliance, Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Hall, and Spirit Beast Hall are leisurely sipping tea in the yard of the spring pool. These four elderly men each exhibit their own distinct demeanors.
However, outside this courtyard, the competition guards, dressed in gold, silver, and copper armours of different materials, stand solemnly. They’re lined up one after another, numbering up to a hundred. Their cold solemnity exudes an invisible pressure.
These nearly one hundred competition guards are responsible for maintaining the entire Eighth Realm competition. They are all middle-aged strength bearers selected from the four major powers, and their strength is enough to cope with the prisoners released to Tian Shou Mountain.
After the first day, these guards of the Eighth Realm competition will enter Tian Shou East Mountain. They can command their spirit pets to fly over Tian Shou Mountain and patrol within Tian Shou Mountain. In this way, as soon as a competitor opens their help signal bottle, they can rush there to save their lives as soon as possible.
Of course, if the competition guards do not arrive in time and there are some extremely evil criminals who do not follow the rules, then these guards are helpless. All competitors, since they choose to challenge the Eighth Realm, should be prepared for the possibility of losing their lives at any time.
The World Decree itself is a brutal competition!
“Who came up with such a tortuous idea for the younger generations? Those are all seventh-level prisoners and eighth-level prisoners. If one or two of them stick to their nature, some youngsters will suffer immensely.” Finally, the elderly man representing the Spirit Beast Hall spoke.
This elder is named Hai Qiu, the elder of the Spirit Beast Hall. He is one of the highest responsible persons in the World Contest and has served as the main judge for more than a decade. He is a truly respected strength bearer.
Sitting next to Hai Qiu, the elder of the Spirit Beast Hall, is a middle-aged man. This middle-aged man has a cold expression, serious, and sharp, almost daunting. Those eyes always seem aggressive, making people dare not look at him.
This middle-aged man is a powerful man from the Soul Alliance, Tian Ting. He is one of the Soul Emperors who chased the Azure Sky Hidden Dragon in Henghai. His strength is among the top in the entire World City. Being able to sit here with three major powers at the elder level speaks for itself.
Tian Ting is responsible for World City, he is also the chief of the World Contest Soul Alliance. He once competed with Li Hong, the strongest man in the world, for the World Throne. His statue may not be placed in the highest glory Hall of the World Throne. Still, his name is engraved on the highest golden staircase!
The World Throne is replaced every ten years, and those who are eligible to participate in the throne dispute are undoubtedly the peak strength bearers in the World Realm!
“If one can’t even deal with prisoners who have had their dual spirits sealed, what qualifications do they have to compete for the world’s glory? Although it’s a bit cruel, it’s only in this cruel fight that more powerful ones can emerge.” The elder of the Nightmare Demon Palace dismissively commented.
This Elder from the Nightmare Demon Palace is Princess Jinrou’s uncle, named Ye Tao. The assassination attempt on Princess Jinrou in the Seventh Realm was due to him and his firm attitude towards the World’s primary Contest Organizer, demanding justice. Princess Jinrou got a substantial compensation. This old man from the Nightmare Demon Palace is extremely protective, especially towards his niece, Princess Jinrou. Most of the time, the matters related to Princess Jinrou are resolved by him.
As the four were talking, suddenly a guard walked over and semi-kneeled before them.
“What’s the matter?” Tian Ting asked indifferently.
“The level eight prisoner, Duan Xinze, is a dangerous person. Several main judges unanimously believe that he cannot be released onto Tian Shou Mountain. Therefore, they specially asked me to ask the chiefs for instructions.” The guard spoke.
“Duan Xinze? Who is that? Let’s hear about it.” The elder of the Spirit Beast Hall, Hai Qiu, asked.
“Duan Xinze and his brother Duan Xinhe are dangerous fugitives who are wanted throughout the World Realm. Duan Xinhe has committed countless acts of robbery and abuse, and was once imprisoned in Mysterious Tracks Prison. After his inexplicable release, his strength was reduced, but he still persisted in his wicked ways. His last atrocity was in Li city of Zhanli Realm, where he killed countless civilians with his Mother of a Hundred and Gluttonous Insect monsters. His current whereabouts are unknown, but it is said that he was killed by a strange Soul Pet that appeared in Li city at that time…”
“Duan Xinze is Duan Xinhe’s younger brother by ten years, and has followed his brother in committing various crimes from an early age. He has always been held in Mysterious Tracks Prison. Like his brother, he controls a mother-species insect Soul Pet that can continually reproduce. When he was imprisoned, he was a Level 8 Prisoner, but in reality, his level of danger is comparable to a Ninth Level Prisoner. The youths of the second-tier find it hard to deal with him. Most importantly, Duan Xinze has a strong desire to kill and abuse, and is likely to cause significant harm to the contestants.” The guard said.
“Why is this kind of prisoner not detained in the Xuanjie Prison, but kept in Mysterious Tracks Prison?” the elder of the Soul Hall raised an eyebrow and asked.
“I… I don’t know, the judges hope the chief judges can make a decision.” The competition guard said.
“Seal his Triple Spirit, if he is singly controlled he can’t do anything no matter how evil he is, take this opportunity to let the contestants of the second tier solve him, so as not to waste prison rations.” Ye Tao of Nightmare Demon Palace waved his hand and made the decision in place of the other three.
The guard first looked at Elder Ye Tao of the Nightmare Demon Palace, and then sought the opinions of the other three chiefs.
“Let’s do it according to Elder Ye’s words, seal his Triple Spirit, and also seal the derivatives whose power exceeds Ninth Rank Lower Stage – Mid Level Monarch, limit his power afterwards and then throw him in, let him survive or perish.” Tian Ting said.
Neither the elder of the Soul Pet Palace nor the elder of the Soul Hall had any objections. All the prisoners who entered Tian Shou Mountain were of the middle-aged generation. These middle-aged prisoners were not considered strong among the middle-aged generation, and each prisoner had their Dual Spirit sealed, so they posed a certain degree of danger, but not to the extent that the members of the second tier could not handle them.
“Yes.” After performing a salute, the guard withdrew from the courtyard and conveyed the decisions of the chiefs to the main judges of the Eighth level.
…
“It seems about time, send the guards into Tian Shou Mountain.” The elder of the Soul Pet Palace, Hai Qiu, glanced at the sky and spoke slowly.
“Yeah, give the orders.”
Tian Ting of Soul Alliance went outside the courtyard, where more than a hundred guards for the Eighth Level of the contest were already lined up neatly before him…
“Move out, be sure to ensure the safety of the contestants.” Tian Ting swept his gaze across the all eighth level guards and spoke casually to everyone.
All the competition guards performed a neat salute and summoned their respective Soul Pets.
Soon, all the competition guards were dispatched and entered Tian Shou Mountain to perform their rescue and escort duties…
Among them was a guard clad in golden armor. As this guard entered Tian Shou Mountain, a cold smile crossed his face, and his gaze turned somewhat malicious!
“Chu Mu, don’t forget what I, Xia Guanghan, said about returning the favor tenfold…”
(Being a student and taking exams is tough, but being a fourth-year student and taking graduate exams is even tougher. I wrote this chapter next to the exam room on a classroom desk, can anyone understand this hardship?… The final judgment is today, everyone bless Little Fish to pass it smoothly. Four years of university can’t be wasted, so today will concentrate on the examination, update will only have two chapters, can’t update in the evening because I have to take a bus back, and an additional chapter will be updated later in the evening. Also, please vote for recommendations, give some tickets. If I accidentally fail, these votes would at least provide some comfort…) (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian to cast recommendation and monthly votes, your support is my biggest motivation.)
