Chapter 553 - Reem's Offer
Arthur was tired but he couldn't succumb to rest especially now. 'Take everything and leave only five pills out there.'
'Ding! Five? Not one?'
'Nah, five is a good number,' Arthur laughed while pushing his body with some difficulty to stand. He didn't want to receive the praise and success he just worked so hard to achieve while being on the ground like this.
"The pill is ready," he said before waving his hand and the next instant all the pills disappeared and only five appeared in his palm.
"What's the name of this pill?"
This was the question Reem asked when she descended again after a few minutes of receiving his pill.
She wasn't alone as the other three envoys were there. Only the lycans' envoy wasn't.
"What do you think of it?" Arthur didn't directly answer the question as he asked with some pride over his tired face.
"It's… simply amazing," Goden laughed before adding, "the only issue here is the form of energy used to make it. if you are willing to hand over the formula, then our master is preparing something huge to suit your taste."
Arthur laughed while saying, "What? Is he planning to invade the world and crush anyone against me here?"
"If you want so then he simply can do that," Goden was speaking out of complete trust while Arthur didn't speak but moved his gaze towards the fifth tower.
And Goden didn't change his words or even glance at the lycan tower.
"The formula?" Antony suddenly muttered, "that's interesting. Sure having the formula will allow us to upgrade it and do it more properly. Our master also extends his offer for the formula."
"My master too," Sam said.
"And of course my master is participating," Reem chuckled before adding in a playful tone, "do you want to be my direct disciple? It's a privilege that will get you access to the higher realms instantly."
The other envoys turned their gazes instantly towards Reem while Goden objected:
"You can't do that, it's against the rules."
"Only if I take him as a lover will it work, right?"
The eyes of everyone here got widened while she laughed as she added, "it's a privilege of being a girl and single y'know, hehehe."
"Oh I'm honored for that," Arthur suddenly spoke, "but I prefer to earn my place with my two hands, even you."
He winked and his words made her face stiffen up but the next moment she shook her head while saying, "it's a long road, a pumpy one ahead of you to achieve that."
"I know," he simply said, "but if I wasn't strong enough to be up there and protected with strong backing, then I shouldn't be."
"The kid is speaking good words," Antony suddenly laughed, "I like you kid. This is how a man should behave."
Other two envoys only nodded before Reem sneered as she said, "Then how do you plan to make a deal about the pill?"
"Like the previous deal," Arthur smiled, "all will be done after winning here."
"Winning?" Dolan suddenly appeared while sneering, "you can't be dreaming of achieving such a thing. Our top teams are still out there untouched yet by you."
"Humph," Reem answered with an arrogant glance over him while adding, "your teams who were crushed by ours? Do you want them to exit the competition?"
Dolan sneered and turned his face towards Arthur before saying, "I came just to deliver one message…" he paused before pointing towards the ring in Arthur's hand as he added, "did you like our ring?"
Arthur felt a wave of rage welling up inside him but he maintained his outer calm as he cracked a smile and responded:
"I love it, just can't wait to collect my other things as well."
"Then you should try your best," Dolan laughed before glancing at others, "as no one will be able to help you in this."
The next instant he vanished while Reem and others felt there were hidden things they didn't know about going on. "What was that just now?" she asked and Arthur simply smiled.
"It's just an old unfinished business between me and the lycans," Arthur said before adding, "thanks for your support so far, your generosity and support won't be forgotten by me."
"At least you have some consciousness for a lower plane kid," Antony said before he left and others followed as they nodded to Arthur and Reem winked at him.
"I'm so tired," he muttered before sitting on the ground and watching the fog coming out of the gigantic five towers writing his name big and clear.
"Next is the array test," he muttered before thinking about his odds there. "I can simply crush them there and then recede the special ability test."
'Ding! This way you'll have three wins and one loss,' the system said.
'Are you planning on winning the individual fight and winning the challenge?' the golden dragon muttered.
'Sure, it's simply foolish to waste more energy here while winning.'
He then closed his eyes and the lead master didn't speak again until he opened his eyes. The other normal teams continued to battle and he only remained for the second day in his challenge with those lycans.
He took pills and ate meat in the process. Despite regenerating his energy fast, he didn't hurry to start the next round.
'Let me waste one more day,' he muttered to himself while continuing to train his cultivation energy. 'I still couldn't feel the aura of the tribulation around,' he thought before adding, 'the real test hasn't started yet.'
After the passage of day two he opened his eyes and went again on foot to continue part three of the competition.
"Finally ready," the leader of the lycan team sneered as he moved to face him, "this turn will be my win."
"I highly doubt it," Arthur simply stated what he believed and strangely everyone who heard his soft answer didn't have a doubt in his words.
