    Chapter 1859


    Severin’s decisive defeat of Janik sparked an immediatemotion among the crowd. It was


    particrly noticeable on the mayor’s side, as well as the sect elders who were sitting on the viewing


    tform.


    Among them was a handsome, salt and pepper–haired, middle–aged man who was d in luxurious-


    looking clothes. He smiled warmly, and stroked his beard as he remarked. “Your city seems to have


    produced a prodigy who can kill his peers with rtive ease, Mayor Kiyu!”


    The man’s name was Fend, an elder of the Grandiuno Sect, one of the four major sects in the whole


    of Southsky state. He was a level mine supreme saint, and he was in charge of the present edition of


    Nontwo City’s sacredke tournament.


    Elders from the four major sects were entrusted primarily with managing the tournament to ensure


    fairness. Their other aim was to identify anyone who had potential. Many disciples were nurtured by the


    sect from a young age, but others were recruited by the sects after excelling in the tournament. Most of


    the people who were recruited through the tournament had above–average talent or strength–a


    testament to their abilities as level nine royal saints. As long as they entered the sacredke and


    became


    supreme saints, they would rank around the mid–level in terms of the sect’s hierarchy.


    Kiyu then responded respectfully, “Oh, but the Grandiuno Sect has numerous disciples capable of


    effortlessly defeating opponents of the same level.”


    The subtle ttery elicited a smile on Fend’s face, and he immediately directed his attention back to


    the ring.


    Meanwhile, Rourie was more relieved than anything when he observed Severin’s easy victory over


    Janik


    from the Chorteaus‘ waiting area. Despite the enthusiastic exmations of his family members,


    Rourie’s


    mood was not quite aligned with the celebratory atmosphere. His family members were discussing


    heartily among themselves.


    “He won?! Elder Severin won?!!”


    “He was up against Janik, the Gahrrs‘ great elder! Who would have thought that Severin could kill Janik


    with barely a couple of moves?”


    “Haha, it’s finally time for our family to stand proud!”


    The tournament moved on to the next match after Severin’s triumph, but the subsequent contestants


    lacked the same ease and confidence that Severin disyed. Not everyone possessed the ability to

    Mayor Kiyu’s voice soon echoed as he announced the next round. “Jangar Lischalt, please take your


    ce on the arena!”


    The announcement elicited surprised exmations from the audience.


    *Jangar is the Lischalts prodigy! He’s an inner disciple of the Purevoid Sect!”


    “Who will be the unlucky opponent selected to face Jangar?”


    “He has fullprehension of swordwill despite being only twenty years old. I don’t think anyone in


    Nontwo City can hold their own against him, other than Thorold and Severin perhaps.”


    “Severin? I’m not so sure about that! I’d ce my bets on Thorold, though, given that he’s a disciple of


    the Deifirm Sect, and his lightning–basedbat techniques surpass even Janik’s. Severin can’t be on


    the same level as they are!”


    The mayor soon revealed that Jangar’s opponent was an honorary elder from a second–tier family


    known.


    as the Roaldes. The contender opted not to enter the ring and surrendered without a fight. No one


    made fun of him despite the somewhat farcical situation that seemed to have resulted, as Jangar’s
