Before long, Yaâs body completely transformed into light. On the cubeâs screen, only a humanoid figure could be seen. If he moved slightly, the dazzling light would change, preventing anyone from seeing his appearance.
Instead, because Primordial Immortal Sword had yet to reach the Terror grade, it remained in Yaâs hand.
âThe Guardian you fused with was already at the Terror grade?â Night Thearch asked as he admired Zhong Ziya who had transformed into the Terror form.
âYes,â Zhong Ziya answered.
âWith your strength, it should be impossible for you to absorb such a Guardian. How did you do it?â Night Thearch continued asking.
âA betting contract,â Zhong Ziya answered.
Others might not understand what a betting contract was, but Night Thearch knew very well. When he heard that, he asked with a heavy expression, âWhat did you bet with him?â
âFirst on the rankings,â Zhong Ziya answered.
Night Thearch laughed. âDo you know how difficult this path is? Itâs impossible for the alien races in all the worlds to let even half a human become the final victor.â
âOnly with difficulty will there be fun.â Zhong Ziyaâs hand that held the sword glowed brightly. The Primordial Immortal Sword and scabbard in his hand slowly lit up before finally turning into a body of light.
âInteresting. Then let me see if you have the qualifications to walk to the end.â Night Thearch took a step forward and Evernight descended on the arena again, turning everything into darkness.
All the humans in the world felt extremely uncomfortable. It was like watching a boring crappy movie in a movie theater. After enduring it for an hour and finally seeing a beautiful woman about to take a bath, the screen suddenly turned black. Only the sound of water splashing could be heard. It was so uncomfortable that it made one want to go crazy.
Zhou Wen didnât feel good either because he couldnât see what was happening inside.
However, this state didnât last long. Soon, a point of light appeared on the dark screen. The point of light became brighter and brighter before it lit up the dark area like a volcanic eruption.
In the end, the light was just too powerful. It made it impossible to look straight at it. It was so blinding that one couldnât even open their eyes.
When the light faded, the cubeâs screen finally returned to normal. Ya and Night Thearchâs figures appeared. The two of them looked at each other from afar as though nothing had happened.
âWho won?â
âI donât know. I didnât see anything at all.â
âItâs too terrifying. We canât even see a battle at that level. If such experts want to slaughter humans, we wonât even have the chance to resist.â
...
Everyone discussed spiritedly as Zhou Wen wore a puzzled look. He didnât know who had won or lost.
âI hope you can walk to the end.â After Night Thearch said that, he turned around and vanished into the night.
âI will,â Zhong Ziya answered.
The cubeâs screen went black before returning to the rankings. Ya remained in first place. Night Thearch didnât appear on the rankings, so it was obvious that Ya had won again.
After Ya won this time, the Guardians didnât swarm over to challenge him like before. There wasnât even one challenger.
This was because the Guardians knew very well that only a Terror grade could defeat a Terror grade. If they were to challenge him again, it wouldnât be a challenge, but suicide.
There are less than forty hours left on the countdown. If this continues, Ya should have a chance of getting first, right?
Zhou Wen muttered to himself.
âItâs impossible for him to obtain first place.â A palm-sized humanoid puppet walked over, but the sound emitted by the puppet belonged to Moon Goddess.
âWhy not? Heâs already at the Terror grade. Even if he encounters other Terror grades, he should have a good chance of winning, right?â Zhou Wen didnât know why Moon Goddess was so certain that Zhong Ziya wouldnât come in first.
âJust as Night Thearch said, itâs impossible for the dimension to let even half a human obtain first place,â Moon Goddess answered.
Zhou Wen pondered for a moment and said, âIf humans obtain first place, it means that no dimensional race can obtain control of Earth for a year. I can understand that. However, Ya can only be considered half human. If he wins, doesnât it mean that the race of the Guardian that fused with Ya won? Why canât they accept that?â
âIf he is not of our kin, he is sure to have a different mind. Itâs the same for dimensional creatures. If Ya finds the strongest Companion Beast in this year, do you think he will hand it over to the dimensional creatures?â Moon Goddess paused before continuing, âMost importantly, that Dimensional Wheel canât be handed over to a creature with human blood. Otherwise, even if those dimensional experts personally descend, itâs impossible for them to defeat a human with a Dimensional Wheel in this world.â
âThe Dimensional Wheel is created by dimensional creatures. Could it be that they canât deal with it?â Zhou Wen asked suspiciously.
âWho told you that the Dimensional Wheel was created by dimensional creatures?â Moon Goddess asked.
âIsnât that so?â Zhou Wen was slightly taken aback.
âOf course not. The so-called Dimensional Wheel is actually a Companion Beast,â said Moon Goddess.
âCompanion Beast? What level is it?â Zhou Wen was somewhat puzzled.
âItâs hard to say what level it is, but the owner of that Companion Beast was the person who had the strongest Guardian in that horrific era. In that era, they fought countless powerful opponents in the world and ultimately obtained first place. That Dimensional Wheel played a role of inestimable proportions.â
Moon Goddess paused for a moment before continuing, âAfter all, Guardians in that era werenât as weak as they are now. This is because the Battle of Guardians took a long time. All the Guardians had enough time to become stronger. Furthermore, in that era, the various races of the dimension had just reached an agreement. The regulations werenât too strict. Many terrifying dimensional creatures descended and secretly controlled the Battle of Guardians. The expert who could defeat all his opponents in that era and stand at the peak of the world was an unimaginably powerful existence.â
âWhich era is the horrific era you speak of? Whoâs the Guardian who obtained first place? Whoâs his contractor?â Zhou Wen was puzzled.
âThat humanâs name is Xuan Yuan. The Guardianâs name is Mystic Thearch,â Moon Goddess answered.
âXuan Yuan! Could it be Yellow Emperor!? Then, is Chiyou among his opponents?â Zhou Wen was alarmed as he hurriedly asked.
âThere was indeed such a person. He was also an existence that was very likely to win first place at that time. His Guardian was the Weapon Lord. I still remember that if Xuan Yuan hadnât taken the Dimensional Wheel back then, the human who clinched final victory in that horrifying era might have been Chiyou,â Moon Goddess said.
âWhat do you mean? Didnât you say that the Dimensional Wheel is Yellow Emperorâs Companion Beast?â Zhou Wen was even more puzzled when he heard that.
âThatâs right. Yellow Emperor picked up the Dimensional Wheel Companion Egg, so the Dimensional Wheel naturally became his Companion Beast. However, Chiyou originally had a chance of obtaining the Dimensional Wheel Companion Egg. No, it should be said that the dimensional wheel originally belonged to Chiyou and Weapon Lord,â Moon Goddess said after some thought.
