Celestial Bloodline

Zron began floating, and everyone immediately followed him, and together they all left the area. After a while, they arrived at the base of a mountain.

Instantly, they extended their senses to survey the surroundings. Only after confirming no one was nearby did they settle on the ground to ignite a fire.

The bright day was gradually darkening, even though there was no sun in the sacred divine land. If there was light in the sky, it meant it was day, and if dark clouds gathered, it meant it was night.

After everyone settled down, all eyes shifted to the old dwarf, as if urging him to continue his unfinished words.

Zron motioned for them to gather around him with a serious expression. The fire grew brighter as he exhaled and looked at the people seated across from him.

"I want all of you to join the Gladiator Arena. Its gates will open in two and a half years, and anyone below the suprrank can participate, regardless of their age."

He then turned to Yon and Susan.

"You two as well. Susan is already at the divine rank, and Yon achieved divine rank just a month ago. I want both of you to join in. I can also participate since I haven't surpassed the transcendent rank yet but, well, I am too old, and my bones start to ache if I move too much."

"So... I will keep an eye on all of you from the audience seats as a guardian who will always be there to protect you if something goes wrong in the Gladiator Arena."

Right away, confusion flickered in everyone's eyes because it was the first tthey heard about the Gladiator Arena. They all had numerous questions in their heads after hearing the old dwarf's words, but before any of them could voice their questions, Zron himself began to explain about the Gladiator Arena.

He went into the specifics of the powerful ancient tomb named the 'Lost Treasure Tomb', which could only be accessed once every hundred years, with its entrance situated in the Sacred Divine Land. But because the number of people who could enter the tomb at a twas limited, the Gladiator Arena was set up to provide every individual a fair chance to compete for an opportunity to enter the tomb.

After Zron finished explaining, he paused for a few minutes so everyone opposite him could digest the information.

Surprisingly, he had no prior knowledge of the Gladiator Arena, despite being familiar with the sacred divine land. Perhaps his memory had faded over time.

He only heard the details about the Gladiator Arena a few days ago when he overheard selves discussing it and their plans to participate.

He was immediately interested, and after noticing that the elves were weaker than him, he made them sit in front of him and politely asked them to tell him everything about the Gladiator Arena.

Of course, after he obtained all the necessary knowledge about the Gladiator Arena and discreetly removed their storage rings, he allowed the elves to leave.

Zron tossed a storage ring toward Susan and told the old man that later he should share the treasures with the youngsters. Then he ended his words with a few more sentences that immediately made everyone's eyes light up.

"All across the universe, everyone who wants to becstronger will surely cand participate in the Gladiator Arena so they can secure a place and gain entry into the Lost Treasure Tomb."

"I'm sure that if the silver-haired lad you all are searching for is on the sacred divine land, he will definitely participate."

"After all, entering the Lost Treasure Tomb means he will get a chance to reach the transcendent or maybe even the suprrank if he encounters an otherworldly opportunity inside the tomb."

Zron took a brief pause and observed everyone's expressions. From their bright eyes alone, he could sense all of them were ready to participate in the Gladiator Arena right this instant simply because there was a chance Kyle would also join the Arena.

"Nevertheless, even if Kyle and the others are not here on this land, I am confident that wherever they may be, they would hear about the Gladiator Arena because currently, nearly everyone in the universe is getting ready to send their people to join the battles that will begin soon."

There was a moment of silence before a heated discussion erupted as Alec, Sinon, and Regius bombarded Zron with many questions about the Gladiator Arena and the Lost Treasure Tomb.

Carcel, Lara, and Mia also had squestions, but unlike the enthusiastic trio, they stayed mostly quiet and simply listened to what else Zron shared. As the youngsters got busy with the old dwarf, Yon and Susan exchanged glances before Yon sighed and placed his arm on Susan's shoulder.

"Old man, it looks like it's tfor us to show our strength to the world. I want to reach the transcendent rank, so I will give it my all to secure a spot.... Haha, maybe its possible my opponent would be Kyle?"

Susan clicked his tongue at his joke and slapped his arm away.

"I might be old, but that doesn't mean I can't fight. Besides, I really want to see that kid again... So, countin. In the end, if I find myself overwhelmed in a battle, I know when to admit defeat."

Then suddenly, the two gazed at Zron. The duo couldn't believe that the oldie, who was the strongest among them all, was backing away and planning to watch everything from the audience. A sudden realization struck them, and the duo locked eyes.

They were aware that Zron had a tendency to steal, but now that he would be seated among thousands of people in the audience, they were unsure whether to be concerned about those sitting around Zron. After all, those individuals are definitely going to lose their precious belongings if they don't have a mind space.

After stime, Alec lifted his sword towards the sky. He didn't hide the back of his hand anymore because he had learned to conceal the dark petal within his body. He raised his voice as everyone else around him also raised their fists toward the sky.

"Our next stop is the Gladiator Arena! We are not just going there to search for Kyle and Jian but also for Nine and Yue! So, all of you, prepare yourselves because for the next two and a half years, all of us are going to train like crazy!"

Zron grinned at their enthusiasm.

"Good! Very Good! I will watch and make sure all of you train like crazy... haha!"

If before hearing Alec's exclamation everyone was feeling excited, now after hearing Zron's words, they all lowered their fists and let out dry laughs, thinking the old dwarf was joking. However, Zron's pleasant expression told them that their next two and a half years are going to be filled with nothing but training.
