Chapter 2250
The other people in Harolds’ group took a few steps back. They were fully aware of who Harold was and did not
want to go against him. Choosing to fight him was akin to basically forfeiting your match.
“I still want to choose him.”
Harold pointed at James.
James’ brows furrowed together. He was slightly incensed by Harold’s decision.
“There are so many other people. Why does he insist on choosing me?’
James said in a discontented tone, “Do you take me for an easy opponent?”
Harold replied earnestly, “No. I chose you because you’re strong. I like fighting against strong opponents. Most
importantly, you’re from Welkin Academy.”
James nodded and said, “Alright. Since you chose me, I won’t back down from the match. Is the strength of the
Immortal Ascension’s Seventh Stair really that amazing? Watch me put you in your rightful place.”
James sneered spitefully in his heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe decided to secretly use the Sacrilegious Ascension in his next match if Harold overpowered him.
If he exploited the Sacrilegious Ascension technique in battle, his actions would not escape unnoticed by the more
powerful people in the room.
However, he would slip under their radar if he were to only cast a portion of the technique.
Not everyone knew of this ancient signature martial art skill.
“Haha, I’m looking forward to it.” Harold smiled faintly.
After Harold selected his opponent, the people behind him continued to make their choice.
Following the order of yesterday’s matches, the remaining participants chose opponents from their own group.
Since James’ battle was the first the previous day, his bout was also arranged to be today’s starting match.
Harold stood inside the arena wearing a golden robe with his hands behind his back. His handsome face was calm
and confident. In contrast, James stood opposite of him with a frown. on his face.
Truthfully, if this had been a life-or-death situation, James would not be afraid of Harold. Unfortunately, it was not a
fight to the death but simply a mere contest.
Yoan furrowed his brows as he stood below the arena. He uttered softly, “I didn’t expect James to go up against the
Grand Supernatural from Divinity Sect. The outcome of this battle was already determined.”
Standing beside him, Quintina said, “The Divinity Sect disciples bear a lot of animosity toward Welkin Academy
disciples. He had the opportunity to choose a different opponent but insisted on James. He’s determined to defeat
and swipe away James’ right to enter the Pagoda of Flames.”
Yoan nodded lightly and said, “Yes… Perhaps it was an order by the Divine Holy Emperor. We can only wait for the
outcome of this battle.”
“Huff.” Yoan sighed.
Although he had confidence in James, his opponent this time was no regular person. James’ opponent was a young
savant as well as an unquestionable powerhouse in this era. Harold was considered peerless even amongst the
Three Thousand Worlds.
Some of the elders watching from outside the arena also felt a twinge of pity for James.
James demonstrated great strength in the previous match. He would have definitely ended up in the top ten and
earned a spot to enter the Pagoda of Flames had he not gone against Harold. Unfortunately, the reality was cruel
and so was his opponent, Harold.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarold was one of the strongest among the youths in the Ancient Realm.
If not for how young he was, he would have gone to Earth to compete with the other bigshots there over the boons.
In the arena, Harold calmly looked at James’ glowering face. He smiled faintly and said, You’re really strong, James.
It’s a pity you ended up with me as your opponent. I hope you don’t hold this against me. I simply love fighting the
strong.”
James’ expression relaxed.
“So, I should feel honored to go against you?”
Harold nodded and said smilingly, “Indeed. It’s an honor for you to be my opponent. Not everyone is qualified to
fight me.”
After taking a deep breath, James said, “If that’s the case, go ahead and make a move.”
James was prepared to go all out.
‘It’s just a Grand Supernatural at the Immortal Ascension’s Seventh Stair. There’s nothing to be afraid of.
‘Even if I don’t use the Sacrilegious Ascension, I still have other tricks up my sleeve.
‘I possess the Infinity Stele, which I obtained from Infinity City.
‘If I attack him with one hundred and eight of the Inifity Steles, I’m sure it’ll be too much for even an Immortal
Ascension on the Seventh Stair to handle.
“The only thing I’m worried about is the someone recognizing the Infinity Stele. It’ll definitely cause a number of
issues for me.”
