Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Larry, with an aura of a supreme king, floated down leisurely and scanned the surroundings with a piercing gaze. As he sauntered, he exuded unparalleled pride that overshadowed even those of top clan heads like Jaxon and Holy Phoenix.

Although Jaxon was also a Sage Level warrior at the premium stage, Larry was still far stronger. Jaxon was mainly able to develop the Xiao Clan and help them thrive through his extraordinary wisdom. In comparison, Larry created the Xuanyuan Clan by himself. The other Sage Level warriors in the Xuanyuan Clan had been defeated by Larry before. And they decided to work for Larry because of his mighty strength.

Needless to say, Holy Phoenix was no match for Larry, especially having just risen to the premium stage of Sage Level. Moreover, it had only been a decade since the Phoenix Pavilion was entrusted to her. If the former head hadn't retired early, she would still be the vice leader.

Several other clan heads were equally accomplished, but possessed power only on par with Holy Phoenix. To them, looking at Larry was seeing a warrior above and beyond. The entire audience, including the senior leaders from the Shura College, stared in awe as Larry appeared. The only people able to keep calm and composed were Marvin and Zachary; the latter couldn't be bothered to make a fuss about such things.

Shortly after, Larry landed smoothly on the ground, just in front of Marvin and the Shura College senior leaders he led.

"Long time no see, Dean Marvin!" Larry said arrogantly.

"I thought the Xuanyuan Clan was not interested in this meeting. I certainly didn't expect you to personally attend," he replied. Even though the man in front of him was the Devil Kingdom's number one Sage Level warrior, Marvi

ongest Sage Level warrior in the Devil Kingdom was not something to be taken lightly. Zachary was, no doubt, very talented.

"I appreciate the flattery, Master Larry." Zachary smiled, still calm.

"Then you don't have to think about your last choice," Larry replied, his face dead serious.

"Of course, I know that if I don't agree, any future attempt to gain a foothold in the Devil Kingdom will prove difficult." Zachary knew exactly what Larry meant and chose to respond with kind acceptance.

For the other clans, these words were tantamount to a death sentence. After all, the Xuanyuan Clan occupying the last choice meant a competition among the Devil Kingdom's three strongest forces.

Jaxon's and Holy Phoenix's faces contorted with frustrated grimaces. It was already bad that the Devil Kingdom's top clan was the Xuanyuan Clan. Having Larry as their leader made it even harder for Zachary to resist the temptation and reject his proposal.

However, just as chaos was about to unfurl in the arena, a figure among the crowd came out of the shadows and started to mosey towards the stage. "Since Master Larry is here, you won't mind if I join, right?"
