King Tryfon and his ministers had been witnessing the entire Heavenly Dragon Battleground''s Tournament.


    They knew who was the winner of this time''s Heavenly Dragon Battleground''s Tournament. It was purely dominated by Noah.


    And the feat they had just witnessed proved that fact.


    Noah attacked a camp where the other top 7 warriors of various factions had gathered. He killed two of them and subdued one of them!


    King Tryfon soon announced in the Hall, "It''s time to announce the winner of this Tournament.. The tournament will still go on to get second ce and third ce. But the Heretical Pdins will be recalled from the tournament."


    "Wouldn''t it dissatisfy the other groups that Your Majesty is not giving them a chance to reim their honor?" A minister from the Fourth Prince''s faction asked.


    King Tryfon showed a disdainful sneer as a minister asked this particr question, "They had lost all their honor when they outnumbered the Heretical Pdins so greatly yet were forced to flee in defeat."


    "The Heretical Pdins have proved that they are indeed the strongest faction in this Tournament. Individually, their leader is a bit na?ve, but his strength covers up those defects. H is an unpolished gem that can be trained to bring out the best in him. Those rough patches can easily be filled and be turned into precious polished gems."


    "Moreover, the core group he brought to the Heavenly Dragon Battleground''s Tournament had more or less survived and showed good fighting spirit and ability even against disciples from top sects and soldiers. I do not see why they need to prove themselves any further," The King exined.


    "I have made up my mind. The next morning, the Heretical Pdins will be announced winners of this Tournament and recalled from the Crarian Forest," The King announced at the end.


    His authoritative voice appeared topel everyone to ept his choice. The King knew he had to use this tone, or these ministers would continue to extend this issue by giving some mindless arguments.


    "Prepare the reward for the victors of the Heavenly Dragon Battleground''s Tournament!" The King gave out another order.


    The ministers knew that they had to prioritize this task above anything else. Else, the king would grow furious.


    He was quite picky about the timing. If he had specified a deadline for something, he required it to bepleted by that time.


    Otherwise, blood would flow within the Hall. None of the ministers dared to test the King right now.


    They knew that since the King hadn''t specified a minister, it meant he was ordering them all.


    If they didn''t get the reward ready before Noah stepped into this courtroom, anyone among them could have had his neck severed by the King''s de.


    To some, dying at the hands of the King could be an honor, but it was a frightening ordeal for these ministers. They didn''t want to die now that they''d gotten to this position after years of hard work.


    Many of them were dissatisfied with presenting the reward to this unknown individual. He didn''t belong to any of their factions, and his victory meant their loss.


    The next day, the King''s voice suddenly resounded in the Crarian Forest, "The winner of this Tournament had been chosen."


    This announcement immediately caught everyone by surprise. All the warriors who were asleep were woken up by hisrades.


    "I-It''s the King! He is speaking to us all at the same time!" Someone within Noah''s group exined with an excited look.


    "The Heretical Pdins have performed wonderfully in this Tournament. Needless to say, they have impressed me greatly. Thus, I am using my right as the Sovereign of this Kingdom to dere them the winner of this Tournament. I am aware of their abilities, and no other group can indeed be equated to them, let alone surpass them in terms of ability. I order the Heretical Pdins'' leader to lead his men out of this forest to the Royal Pce," King Tryfon spoke.


    Noah''s entire group was extremely excited. They didn''t think that they would suddenly be announced winners like this.


    Noah frowned slightly as he didn''t want this tournament to end. He was nning to ''convince'' more people to join his group and expand it. Well, he wasn''t actually convincing them but more like giving them no choice other than to join his group.


    The two individuals who were the most shocked were Luna and Aria. Unlike Noah, they knew quite a bit about the Heavenly Dragon Battleground''s Tournament''s history. This was the first time the King was using his authoritative power to announce the victor before the proper end of this tournament.


    "The rest of the groups are going to continue as it is," The King responded at the end before his voice faded in this ancient forest.


    Many warriors lost their motivation to continue this tournament as they held a strong desire to win. They weren''t satisfied with the second or the third position. They wanted the first position.


    They knew the difference between them and Noah was quite wide. However, they were still slightly hopeful as they thought that many warriors would gang up on Noah and they could fish in troubled waters. Maybe they could get lucky.


    But the king had prevented that situation from urring.


    However, many warriors were also relieved. They knew that they didn''t stand a chance against Noah and his group.


    So, they were happy that Heretical Pdins were dered victors and removed from this tournament altogether.


    This would allow them to have a better chance of surviving in this tournament.


    In the meantime, Noah led his warriors outside the Crarian Forest. He met up with a few warriors who were seemingly waiting for Noah.


    They spoke respectfully, "Please follow us, Young Master Noah."


    "Alright," Noah and his entire group of more than 400 warriors were taken to the Royal Pce.


    The Royal Pce was divided into three buildings.


    Each one of these warriors was assigned a room in the nearby mansion of the Main Pce while Noah was taken to the Main Pce.


    He was assigned a room within the Main Pce and also given some formal clothing. Soon, he would have a meeting with the King and his ministers, so he had to be in a presentable form.


    Noah first removed his clothes and decided to take a bath in the bathroom next to the room.


    His eyes shone in excitement as he saw therge pool in the bathroom filled with hot water. He jumped in the water and began to swim inside it.


    Soon, a couple of maids entered the bathroom as they were tasked to clean Noah''s body and then help him wear those formal clothes.


    Noah was startled to see those maids. The maids noticed his shock and immediately exined themselves, "We have been ordered by the Ministers to help you clean up, Young Master."


    These maids didn''t know of Noah''s identity. They were only told that Noah was a special guest. Any more than that was something they didn''t need to know.


    The maids were somewhat surprised that Noah was so young. They had nned to use their beauty and some assets to seduce Noah and grab some benefits.


    But since Noah was so young, their n failed. They knew they had to change their approach. It would be best to appear like a kind woman to this boy.


    Unfortunately, Noah could see greedy expressions on their faces, so their schemes were unlikely to result in anything.


    After almost an hour, Noah was fully clothed and ready to see the King.


    The maids soon left his room. And a few minutester, a servant knocked on the door as he asked, "Are you ready to meet the King, young master?"


    "Yes," Noah spoke.
