Chapter 254 Xavier's Recommendation



It seemed as if they were waiting for this, with a surge of Spiritual Energy, their figures also shot forth, the dozen gathered figures also pretty eye-catching.

In a short span of a minutes, numerous figures landed on the lowest stone platforms. However, with the exception of a tiny handful, most did not linger for even a second, instead using the platform as a foothold to propel their bodies forward again, heading towards the higher platforms.

Everyone knew that the higher the platform, the better one would be able to show one's abilities. The rankings would also be different, enabling one to receive better treatment in the future.

Hence, everyone wanted to climb as high as they could instead of dwelling at the bottom of the pyramid.

Of course, not everyone had the courage. Disciples that were satisfied as long as they could become outer mountain disciples stayed behind, standing at the centre of the stone platforms, indicating their determination to vie for it.

Anyone that was also interested in competing would step onto the same stone platform and begin the fight to decide who would ultimately have the right to occupy it.

Hence, in a short few minutes, bouts of berserk spiritual energies were already exploding on many stone platforms, the figures within engaged in battle.

The world around them was filled by the sounds of clashing.

On the spiritual energy tree and high above, numerous gazes were cast down, watching the clashes on the stone platforms.

Master Antero gazed at the 6 individuals around him as he smiled and said, "I wonder who will end up as the champion."

On the 5th branch, the youthful-looking Blood Slaughterer Peak master, Tarar, whose face gave off a healthy jade-like glow, let out a gentle chuckle as he said.

"I've heard that the Tubble clan's Drake Tubble has been recognized as the head of the ten great outer mountain disciples. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the greatest contender for first place."

On 2nd branch, Colleen Evil Peak's master, Bisma Vermidov's long and narrow phoenix eyes swept over as she said with an implicative tone, "I've heard Drake Tubble has already received much attention from peak Master Tarar.

I believe he will likely join the Blood Slaughterer Peak after the ceremony, right? The Blood Slaughterer Peak has managed to snatch quite several excellent seedlings over the years."

Tarar smiled slightly. "My Blood Slaughterer Peak has relatively weaker foundations after all, giving me no choice but to recruit more disciples. We're still far from being able to match you all, that's why I am sitting on the 5th branch."

Antero smiled and said, "The Blood Slaughterer Peak's current accomplishments cannot be separated from peak master Tarar's efforts.

The Spirit Devouring Mountain is where I was born after all. I naturally want to do my part." Said peak master Tarar with a smile.

Upon hearing these words, peak master Antero continued to smile faintly, while Bisma Vermidov's eyes narrowed slightly without anyone's notice.

At this moment, a figure suddenly stepped forward from behind the tree and respectfully reported, "Peak master, though Drake's chances are indeed great, there is someone that should be able to compete with him."

If one looked over, one would discover that the person who had spoken was the one who had brought Ezra to the Spirit Devouring Mountain, Xavier.

"Oh?" Peak master Antero chuckled upon hearing this. "Is it the one from the Heavenly Fiend master's clan?"

Upon hearing peak master Antero's words, the Heavenly Fiend Peak master, Uxama Ingale's lips cracked open as he laughed, before he said in a booming voice, "Those little lasses are quite talented, but they are still lacking a little compared to Drake. If they fought, their chances at winning will not be high."

Xavier also chuckled and said, "Ravina does have astonishing talent. If given more time, no one would be her match in the peak selection ceremony.

However, the one I'm referring to is not her, but… another fellow called Ezra Zephyr."

He pointed towards a certain spot below as the hegemons' gazes followed. They saw Ezra leading a group of disciples as they climbed to higher platforms.

"Oh, that mysterious one!?" Mumbled Antero.

A distance ahead was Drake Tubbles and gang of Shiyan disciples.

One look was all it took. Anyone could see that these two groups were the elites amongst this batch of outer mountain disciples. Going forward without stopping a bit.

"This one only has the strength of the 2nd Level Core Formation stage. How did he make so many people submit to him?" Colleen Evil Peak master Bisma's tone was one of interest.

"His body is not weak and have reached an astonishing stage. No wonder." However, she soon sensed the abnormally strong body of the prince.

The white brow elder also looked down, a trace of interest appearing on his seemingly miserable looking face. "I told you before he has something special, his perception is not bad, he should be pretty decent in illusion spiritual techniques."

Xavier said, "Ezra comes from this Naran Continent, where he distinguished himself in the Spirity Bailiwick and obtained the the greatest gifts."

These words immediately caused the eyes of the seven hegemons to widen a little. Soon after, all of them fell silent.

Master Antero slowly said, "There has been a cabalistic and deep connection of Spirity Bailiwick and our Spirit Devouring Mountain. I heard Supreme Leader talk about it. However, for many past years, distinguished disciples of Spirity Bailiwick chose to join other sects.

For the first time, we will witness the chronicles of someone who ranked 1st in Spirity Bailiwick."

The Heavenly Fiend master Uxama Ingale's eyebrows raised as he pondered something. His expression was mystic as an old voice filled with curiosity sounded, "I always wonder, just what is Spirity Bailiwick!?"

The muscular one on 4th branch sighed. "I am seeing hope for the upcoming war against those Duo-Mountain mongrels."

The atmosphere turned grave.

They knew that their demotion from 1st degree sect to 2nd degree sect occurred due to new existence of Duo-Mountain Peak.

The newly Duo-Mountain Peak was steadily rising in power, and there was also the powerful Holy Law Sect behind them. Hence, even the Spirit Devouring Mountain could only bury their hatred deep in their hearts.
