Outside the cave, three youths were engaged in a hot chatter.
Ash continued. "In the face of this power, the disciples from the other continents are merely akin to a plate of scattered sand. Who would dare to object? After all, once the other party is provoked, they can easily join hands in the peak selection ceremony to make things difficult. Let alone the top ten, one might be hard-pressed to even obtain a decent ranking. Even if we fight, they have Drake Tubble."
"And you have me and Naran Continent disciples." The prince retorted
Ezra indifferently remarked, "In the end, it depends on whose fist is harder."
He looked towards Ash Bekham as he continued, "I do not know whether the others will acknowledge his allocation, but with regards to my ranking, I'm afraid that they don't have the qualifications.
Moreover… I'm not interested in the other spots either, the only thing I want in the peak selection ceremony is the first place."
His tone was ordinary, but the words he spoke stunned Ash Bekham, but Gill knows the terror of his prince. It's just that being apart from the rest of Naran's disciples and working on an information network, the uninvited rumours haunted his heart and mind, causing some doubts.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo one did not know that Drake had already declared first place was his. In the face of his overwhelming might, no one dared to have any opinions. Hence, practically everyone felt that Drake taking number one in his batch was already set in stone.
Who could have expected Ezra Zephyr to also declare he wanted first place?
As such, would this not mean that he would have to compete with Drake?
Ash Bekham sighed, before he said, "Brother Ezra… Drake will not be easy to deal with. I suspect that he has already reached the 4th Level Core Formation stage."
Most of the first class disciples were at the 3rd Level, and Drake was likely the only one who had reached the 4th.
The prince laughed in a carefree manner. "Whether or not he's easy to deal with, I'll find out when we fight."
Ezra grinned, he wanted to see how grotesque Drake would look when the first place he coveted so much will be taken by him in the peak selection ceremony.
Drake had repeatedly used various methods to make things difficult. If the prince bore with all this without counter-attacking, he would not be The Atrocious Werewolf Prince.
Upon hearing this, Ash knew that Ezra had already made his decision. Looks like things were no longer going to be peaceful during the peak selection ceremony.
However, Ash felt a little apprehensive. Although no one had a good grasp of Ezra's abilities except Naran's disciples, the one he was facing this time was not the likes of Moshi or Roshi, but Drake Tubble, a ruthless individual that was known to stand at the top of all the unofficial outer mountain disciples.
"Brother Ezra, if you're really planning on viewing for first place with Drake, I advise you to cooperate with some of the other continent disciples. They have already been enraged by Drake's overbearingness, and only lack someone to step up and take the lead. If Brother Ezra can get them on your side, you will not have to face the Shiyan and Rhiyan disciples alone. Even thou Naran disciples are powerful but there is a limit." Ash Bekham suddenly suggested.
Gill Subzi fell into thought for a while, before he said, "I know some first class disciples that are also unhappy with Drake. They will be a considerable force if you manage to recruit them."
The prince fell silent for some time. In the end, he nodded. Drake had already gathered a huge group of two continents' disciples, an alarming powerful force indeed. Although Ezra Zephyr did not feel that numbers meant victory, it was true that going alone would at times be more physically and mentally exhausting.
The thing that stopped Ezra from throwing tantrum was the connections of Shiyan and Rhiyan continents in Spirit Devouring Mountain.
If he could recruit these other continent disciples to his cause, he would not lose to Drake in presence and position.
When Ash saw Ezra nod, he continued to speak again, "However, all of them are elites amongst the unofficial outer mountain disciples, the proud individuals who will not easily submit to anyone. Without sufficient strength, it will be very difficult to convince them."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDrake had been able to become the leader of the Shiyan disciples due to his strength even Rhiyan disciples came under him and left the side of Ravina Ingale. In contrast, there was no one amongst the other continent disciples like him who could sweep away everyone else with power.
This led to the current situation in the unofficial outer mountains. The other continent's disciples formed their various groups and factions. Though they may seem to have the advantage due to their superior numbers, they were completely unable to match the Shiyan and Rhiyan disciples.
The only group who have defeated them is yours, Naran disciples.
Ezra intended to caution Ezra as well as to inform him that only he is capable. After all, the former was worried that Ezra would be unable to control the situation after recruiting these proud and untamable individuals. If the situation turned into a farce, Ezra Zephyr would lose all face.
Who amongst those who could come to the Spirit Devouring Mountain was not a prided genius? Everyone was full of pride, making it an uphill task to make them all voluntarily acknowledge a single person.
At the very least, such a person had never appeared during the past two months.
The prince naturally understood this. He softly chuckled and said, "Brother Ash need not worry. You only need to call them over, and I'll handle the rest."
With these words from the prince, there was nothing much for Ash to say, and he could only nod.
"We'll depend on Brother Ezra's methods when the time comes."
