Chapter 118 Spirity Tower
"Thank you for allowing us in the scaled pool," said John Stark.
"I don\'t know what are you talking about." Replied the prince.
The Fair Sword smiled and gestured towards a certain cub, Ezra looked and it was Skoll.
The prince understood and turned his sight back to John Stark
John Stark\'s wounds were almost healed, and from the spiritual energy undulations spreading from his body, it was clear that he had benefited greatly from the scaled pool too.
John Stark shook his head and said, "However, a storm has been gathering in the Spirity Bailiwick over the past half a month. You\'ve missed several major events."
Upon hearing this, something clicked inside Ezra Zephyr as he immediately raised his head to look at the Spirity Tablet high up in the sky.
Next, astonishment and amazement flooded out onto his face.
"To think that such a huge change has happened to the Spirity Tablet..."
Light still flowed on the Spirity Tablet, but an enormous change had occurred to it when compared to half a month ago.
The most eye-catching change was the greatly increased number of names on the tablet.
Originally, there had only been a handful of people. Such as Ezra Zephyr, Shifa Pista, Victor Brownmane, Rolo Aur, Salom Uqually and the rest. But now, the number of names had reached 391!
"391 people have gotten their names on the Spirity Tablet?" Ezra was rather surprised.
Since when had it become so easy?
Argus raised his face as he explained, "You may not know this, your majesty, but during the past half a month, blessings and gifts continuously appeared in the Spirity Bailiwick. After an intense struggle, they were ultimately won by several fortunate individuals.
The clear outcome of obtaining such blessings was the rapid increase in strength, allowing one to ascend to a higher level in a single step.
Numerous geniuses that had been stuck at the 7th level of the Qi Brightening stage had managed to use this opportunity to step into the Core Formation stage!
What\'s more, the Spirity Tablet\'s rules seemed to not be limited to battle accomplishments. Anyone who can obtain blessings and reach the Core Formation stage will be able to leave their names on the tablet.
In other words, the 391 individuals on the tablet all possess the strength of the Core Formation stage except... you!"
Amazement surfaced in Ezra\'s eyes. One only needed to step into the Core Formation stage while obtaining any blessing to leave your name on the Spirity Tablet.
However, only a handful of geniuses had been able to reach the Core Formation after entering the Spirity Bailiwick. Now, however, that number had increased to 391. From this, one could see just how beneficial the Spirity Bailiwick was.
Ezra Zephyr sighed and began to earnestly inspect the Spirity Tablet.
"Hmm!?"
While he was looking, his eyes suddenly widened. He had seen a familiar name.
Zulfi Dimitry, his very own subject.
He looked at him and Zulfi chuckled, "I succeed, your majesty."
"Very good, you have impressed me" praised the prince.
Said Ezra as he gazed at the Tablet again, his eyes widened and widened because he saw many of the other Bloodfang Kingdom\'s martial masters. Apart from them, the other names he recognized were of elf princess, Farrie Holaleth and Stripe Beast Empire\'s Bearman, Ixtal Molarch.
The prince read the details.
"1st Level of Core Formation stage, Ixtal Molarch.
Battle Accompolishmemt: Injured 1st Level of Core Formation stage, Leomord Tigerian."
"Who is Leomord Tigerian?" The curious prince asked.
"He is the youngest prince of Stripe Beast Empire."
The shock occurred in Ezra\'s mind. "He beat the prince? I heard the prince was quite strong."
"He is, but those upper realm bastards intervened."
"They intervened! Did Ixtal join them?"
Zulfi nodded his head and said: "They say that Rolo Aur\'s group collided with Leomord\'s, it was a terrifying fight, said those who witnessed it.
However, Rolo\'s group was clearly too powerful, and Leo ended up retreating. It was that time when Ixtal attacked him from behind and injured him.
Argus piped in, "Although Ixtal defeated Leomord, he later encountered Akkar. It is said that Akkar almost killed Ixtal but Rolo saved him, that fight resulted in Akkar\'s victory."
"Who the fuck is Akkar now?" Ezra was irritated by many new names.
"A battle loving dwarf from dwarven kingdom, an apex genius no less than us."
Ezra continued to look. Sure enough, he saw another name.
"Upper Realm, 1st level Core Formation stage, Carlo Aur."
Ezra\'s eyes widened, "Rajah Indarapatra" he murmured, his eyes moving towards the next row of words.
"Battle Accomplishment" Defeated Akkar Boldheart in a single move."
Ezra frowned slightly. "These upper realm people are purposely targeting the apex-level geniuses in hopes of weakening the morale of the other geniuses, making them no longer have the courage to contest.
Simply put, they have made an example. Carlo Aur is indeed very powerful."
Ezra Zephyr had come into contact with Rolo Aur before and knew just how strong he was. He was someone that could escape from Hati and trapped Skoll in space. And the one called Carlo Aur is stronger than that younger brother of his.
Ezra Zephyr continued to look downwards. After a while, his gaze suddenly paused
"Xyr went 53 rounds with Carlo Aur but ultimately lost."
"I can\'t believe he was able to push Carlo Aur so far." Ezra was rather amazed.
Carlo\'s strength was immeasurable, and even though they have never met, Ezra could feel that the latter was holding a tremendous amount of power. He never imagined that the next Djinn, Xyr would be able to last so long against Carlo Aur.
He had finally finished reading the entire Spirity Tablet. Practically every person on it had become the greatest benefactor of this batch\'s Spirity Bailiwick.
"You also seemed to have formed your 3rd Sorcery Circle?" Ezra Zephyr\'s gaze turned towards someone. A certain female came out of the crowd, she moved like the wind, beautiful like nature itself.
"Hehe, how could I stay behind." Farrie Holaleth chuckled.
The prince of Bloodfang could feel that the spiritual energy inside her body had grown much stronger. Those undulations belonged to the true Early 3rd Circle Sorcerer.
"We\'ve at last managed to take that final step thanks to the blessings of this scaled pool." A raspy voice sounded.
Ezra pivoted his head, only to find a 5 feet tall man, he had thick curly brownish hair and a braided beard. It was none other than the battle maniac dwarf, Akkar Boldheart. He swung his axe hammer as he smiled at Ezra, even though his thick facial hair refused to reveal his lips.
Besides him stood another unique figure, his attire was bestial, and his dark yellow hair and vertical slit pupils showed he was a beastman.
"You must be Leomord Tigerian!" Said, Ezra.
"Correct!" Leo replied.
Baron cut in "The Core Formation stage has the ability to connect the formation of the core with spiritual energy, drawing density inside the core, from within to refine more powerful spiritual energy. However, we only advanced recently and do not dare to make any rash attempts."
The Formation of the Core stage was said to be an extremely mysterious phenomenon.
However, one would only be able to sense it after reaching that realm.
This was also how the Core Formation stage had derived its name.
Ezra nodded as he sighed. It seems that he was the only one that has yet to break through into the higher realm. The apex-level geniuses had borrowed the blessings in this place to rapidly upgrade themselves.
It was likely that Victor, Rolo and their groups had also made substantial progress over the past half a month.
If they were to meet again, there would surely be an epic earth-shaking battle.
"When does the Spirity Bailiwick end?" Asked Ezra Zephyr.
Argus and Zulfi shook their heads.
A familiar voice came. "Every batch is different, so no one knows what will happen. Normally speaking, however, once the greatest blessing is taken, the Spirity Bailiwick will change..." it was Theor Galearms.
"The greatest blessing?"
Ezra pondered. Just as he was about to speak again, a faint stabbing pain was suddenly felt between his brows.
An ancient imprint seemed to appear and flicker for a split second. It was at this moment that every genius in the Spirity Bailiwick heard a strange rumbling noise emerge from the Spirity Tablet.
Millions and millions of light rays slowly blossomed from the Spirity Tablet.
Rays of light extended as a giant tower slowly emerged from within, appearing within everyone\'s sight.
Light also gathered in front of the tower, forming a platform.
Meanwhile, an ancient voice that seemed to have travelled through time echoed across the land, filled with indescribable dignity and mysteriousness.
"Those whose names are on the tablet may enter the Spirity Tower.
The strongest one shall be spared, the rest must fight, and only 16 can move to the next floor."
The entire Spirity Bailiwick instantly exploded into an uproar. Countless geniuses wailed because they had yet to leave their names on the tablet. All they could do now was watch, unable to vie for the greatest blessing.
~BZZZ~
The names on the Spirity Tablet suddenly started glowing brightly one by one, transforming into a pillar after pillar of light that descended from the sky.
The light pillars landed, enveloping 391 figures. The fight for the ultimate blessing of the Spirity Bailiwick had finally begun at this moment.
