Chapter 423 - Prelude To A Fierce Competition



---

During one afternoon in the Azure Sun Great World, a huge commotion thrown people into hubbubs of discussion.

An enormous shadow almost covered the entirety of the Azure Sun Capital without any warning, effectively alarming a lot of people.

"Look! What in the world is that!?"

"Is that a freaking ship?"

"No, its actually look more like a floating continent."

"Who are these people? Are they here to go to war?"

"You fools! That\'s no enemy! Look at the flag!"

"Oh shit! They\'re here! The Envoys of Ancient Elysium Sect are finally here!"

"Wow! What a grand show of power! Ancient Elysium Sect really deserves their reputation."

"The Twin Star Academy are opening up their arrays."

"Could this ship even fit in there?"

"Maybe it can shrink like most abodes?\'

"Yeah, it should be like that."

A crowd of people from the Twin Star Academy flew up in the skies and formed a line to welcome the arrival of envoys. And just like what people guessed, the ship carrying the envoys started shrinking and shrinking at an alarming pace until it turned small enough to fit on one\'s palm. 

As soon as the ship shrank, three people emerged from it. Each of them carried a deep and unfathomable aura, causing many people to be unable to look at them directly. The three of them wore unique uniforms. A deep maroon robes with black-golden linings. All uniforms had an eye-catching crest on its back and every single one of them were wearing a badge that looked just like the one the most people below are scrambling to get.

"We Elders of Twin Star Academy, welcome the Envoys from Ancient Elysium Sect."

The rumbling voice of the elders caused the people below to be stunned. Hubbubs of whispers emerged soon after but none of the people below were paid attention by those who were flying above. 

"Elders are too polite. This junior appreciates your warm welcome." The man in the middle spoke with a calm voice. 

His face was that of a gentleman who\'s at the peak of his youth, he carried a bit of a scholarly aura yet he also emanated an unfathomable aura just like the older people beside him. 

"This junior\'s name is Henry, to my right is Elder Felton and to my left is Elder Norman. We are tasked by the sect to preside over this years disciple recruitment."

"Welcome to Azure Sun Great World, Childe Henry, Elders Felton and Norman. I am the Deputy Head of Twin Star Academy, just address me as Philip. You three must be exhausted from a long trip, please follow me inside, I\'ll arrange rooms for you."

"Thank you Sire, we appreciate it." Henry smiled warmly, the three of them then followed the Elders of Twin Star Academy inside and disappeared from the view of the people below. 

As soon as they disappeared, the crowd once again descended into a fit of discussions. 

"Those people are formidable!"

"Really? I don\'t agree actually. I think they\'re just putting on airs on the Twin Star Academy."

"No, you don\'t understand." The other glared at his companion, "That is called confidence brought by bearing and background."

"He\'s right. If we were on the same shoes as that guy, we will act the same, heck we might even be more overbearing compared to him."

….

"See that child? The one called Henry?" A old man secretly whispered to his student. "Whatever you do, never take him as an enemy."

"Please enlighten me Master." The student replied with a blazing gaze.

"I\'ve told you this many times didn\'t I? Never judge a book by its cover." The old man sighed, "Not to mention you, even I, your Master wouldn\'t able to endure five full-powered strikes from him. Be good, and just follow my orders."

Hearing his Master\'s words shocked the student deeply. "How can that be? Master must be jesting with me. You\'re an almighty expert, how could someone like him be your match? He\'s not even an Empyrean!"

"That\'s why I told you to never judge a book by its cover!" The old man sigh, "Forget it. Just listen to me and don\'t offend that guy. You can take him as an ally but never as an enemy, do you hear me?"

The youth was still a bit unreconciled but he still nodded his head. 

"What do you think?" A man with a long grey beard, asked the man beside him. 

"Formidable!" The man replied with eyes shining, "Extremely formidable! Specially that guy called Henry. It\'s as if he\'s a slumbering God Beast!"

The gray bearded man nodded and said: "I have confidence on you. So long as you pass their test, then it won\'t be hard for you to reach his stage."

"Thanks for your kind words Master. Don\'t worry, this disciple won\'t let you down. I am aiming for the top after all."

"Mm!"

"I\'m afraid that just one of those Elders could raze our entire planet into shambles. What a sect though!"

"Mm! This is why we have to get in no matter what! So long as we passed the tests, then our faiths will be reversed. If we perform well, then the problems facing our home will be fixed."

"Right! We must do our best Sister."

"Hmph! How arrogant! Hmph!"

"Right, right! How dare they become arrogant in front of young master!? They didn\'t even extend their greetings to you! What audacity!"

"Hmph! It doesn\'t matter! Isn\'t it just some test? Watch this young master pass it with flying colors! Hmph! Let\'s see if he dares to be arrogant once this Young Master ranks first!"

"Right, right! Young Master will surely prevail! Hail Young Master! Allow this servant to congratulate you for getting the top ranking!"

"Hmph!"

"I have to get in!"

"I will get in!"

"This is my last chance! I have to be accepted as a disciple! Damn! Damn it all! I don\'t care anymore! I\'ll get in no matter what!"

"Wait for me Junior Sister! I\'ll free you from the hands of that demon even at the cost of my life! Hang on just a bit longer!"

"I\'ll keep my promise no matter what! We\'ll be together once more!"

"Hehehehe. What a good Ancient Elysium Sect! You even sent a living War God right here!"

"Hehe, how kind. I wonder what kind of face you will make once you will make once you realizes that I\'m here? Hehehe."

"I can\'t wait."

"How\'s your preparations?"

"All nice and ready. In fact, I can hardly wait for it to start!"

"Mm! Glad to hear that. Remember to not bite more that what you can chew. Its fine even if you fail, you\'re still young after all."

"Well, don\'t jinx it!" The youth groaned, "Whatever. I\'ll do my best, but seeing the ones who are participating really gives me confidence! I think I can make it pretty far."

"Yeah, yeah. I hope that those won\'t be your famous last words."

"Hmph, this is why no girls wants to be with you."

"What did you say!?"

"Nothing!"

Inside one of the inns in the Azure Sun Capital, Raven and his group just came back from watching all of the commotion outside. Seeing the Ancient Elysium Sect\'s display of power somewhat shocked Raven inwardly.

\'They brought a freaking war ship with them! Weren\'t they afraid of being misunderstood by the Empyreans of Azure Sun Great World?\'

\'And those people they sent.\' Raven\'s mind recalled the faces and demeanors of the men from the famous sect, his heart couldn\'t help but be startled. \'I thought I was already overestimating Ancient Elysium Sect\'s power, but who would\'ve thought that I\'m still underestimating them.\'

\'That guy called Henry. If I\'m not wrong, then he should be a War God. He\'s not an Empyrean at all but I\'m afraid that some Empyreans couldn\'t even match him. He\'s too formidable.\'

"How is it, Nephew Raven? Eye-opening right?"

"Very eye-opening Uncle." Raven nodded emotionally, "That ship of theirs should be a War Ship right?"

Raul blinked and smiled, "I didn\'t expect you to know about it, but yes. It is a War Ship. I believe it\'s called the Almighty Olympus War Ship. It is rather famous due to its speed and defensive capabilities. I heard somewhere that the ship can travel to even the most dangerous places in the Divine Realm. However, this ship is actually just one of the inheritances of the sect, its not even ranked at the top."

"Really? Then what is in the top then?" Albert asked with wide eyes.

"I\'m not sure as I\'m not a disciple of the sect, but if the rumors are true, then it should be extremely valuable. If Nephew could pass the tests and become a disciple, then you should do your best to get hold of that."

"Well, I\'ll think about it once I managed to pass. There\'s no use on yearning for it if its not meant to be." Raven replied solemnly.

"True. Anyway, you shouldn\'t go out until the start of the recruitment." Raul advised. 

Raven nodded to his words and went back to his room in order to calm down his excitement.
