Chapter 205 - Breakthrough On The Spot!
Wells handed over a small box.
“This is the sacred grass our ancestors obtained from the Alps in Europe. It can instantly heal all the wounds on the body. It is rich in pure energy, and there are no side effects. If it is used by a ninth rank martial artist, there is even a possibility of breaking through to the Ultimate realm.”
After Andrew took the box, the sound of a system notification rang in his ears.
“Congratulations on obtaining 600,000 strengthening points.”
Andrew nodded. It seemed that this was indeed a good item.
Its value had already surpassed the corpse of an Ultimate realm demon beast.
Andrew opened his mouth and asked, “Diana is from your family?”
Wells nodded.
“Diana is a descendant of our family. She advocated integrating into the new world, so she went to New York University to receive martial arts training.”
Andrew smiled. “I finally understand why she would surrender. But with Annie’s temper, I don’t think she would agree.”
Sure enough, Annie raised the sword in her hand.
“I don’t need you to surrender. I can use my own strength to prove that I’m stronger than you!”
As soon as she finished speaking, her mental strength suddenly underwent a qualitative change.
Annie directly broke through to the seventh stage grandmaster realm.
“Not bad, as expected of my woman,” Andrew said with a smile from the audience seats.
Wells and Clayton, who were at the side, didn’t say anything.
With their vision, they could naturally see what kind of state Annie was in.
Annie’s strength had already reached the peak of the sixth stage. Because she had consumed two stalks of sword intent grass, her sword intent had reached 50%, which greatly increased her spiritual power.
It could be said that Annie had always been at the edge of the seventh-grade grandmaster realm.
Even if she didn’t break through in the arena right now…
She might suddenly reach the seventh grade the next day when she was sleeping or eating.
Coupled with Diana’s words just now, it caused her some excitement.
It was very reasonable for Annie to break through to the seventh-grade grandmaster realm.
Diana’s fierce fighting spirit also rose.
Previously, Diana’s surrender was not her original intention.
At this moment, both of them were of the same seventh rank. She naturally wanted to see if she was a match for Annie.
Annie’s strength foundation was not stable. From the fourth rank onwards, she relied on pills to forcefully increase her strength.
However, compared to Diana, her battle experience was richer.
Although Diana had relied on herself to train, she had always been in the Dupont family and had never experienced a battle with monsters.
Annie’s equipment and sword intent were still slightly better.
After a minute of the battle, Diana’s long sword left her hand and landed on the ground not far away.
She panted heavily and nodded at Annie.
“It’s true that I lost today. But the next time, I will definitely defeat you!”
After Diana left the stage, she flew directly to the audience.
She first saluted Andrew and Clayton, then knelt down in front of Wells.
“Third Uncle.”
Wells was expressionless as he asked coldly, “You ran out of the Holy Land without permission. Do you know your mistake?”
Two years ago, Diana sneaked out of the Holy Land when the rest of the family was not paying attention. She went to the outside world and joined New York University.
“I know my mistake,” Diana said. “But I came to the outside world. In these two years, I realized what kind of character the warriors here have. The martial arts and moves they practice are very simple and crude. But their battle experience and willpower are something that our family warriors can not achieve.
“I am sure that when a family warrior of the same realm fights with a warrior from the outside world, the warriors from the outside world will definitely win!”
Wells fell into silence after hearing this.
He could not deny it.
Before he came out, he had always looked down on the warriors from the outside world.
These warriors’ techniques had only been passed down for twenty years, and their cultivation methods were crude and primitive. How could their moves be compared to a Holy Land family, which had been passed down for a thousand years?
But after coming to the secular world for a period of time, he found that the situation was completely different.
The warriors from the outside world risked death every day to fight with the demon beasts.
This kind of martial will was far superior to that of the descendants of the Holy Land.
Seeing that Wells did not speak, Diana gritted her teeth, stood up, and said sternly, “Third Uncle, if our Holy Land does not make any changes, we will definitely be eliminated by martial arts in a few decades!”
Finally, Wells nodded.
“This matter needs to be discussed by the higher-ups of the family. However, I will make the decision for you to escape without permission. You will be exempted from all punishment, and you will continue to study martial arts at New York University in the future.”
Hearing this, Diana’s face was full of surprise.
After thanking him, she left happily.
Andrew and Clayton looked at each other.
Wells had given her the sacred herb again today, giving her the advantage to admit defeat. He had even agreed to let Diana continue to stay at New York University.
This was sending a signal.
It was very likely that the Dupont family would choose to stand on the side of the outside world.
After the competition ended, the reporters gathered around Annie for an interview.
As the champion of the martial arts competition, Annie naturally could not lack these things.
Andrew was not interested in this and left first.
Very soon, he received a call.
It was from Bennett.
“Sir Andrew, my father replied to my letter. He took a few photos and said that he didn’t know if this is the material you want.”
“He doesn’t know?” Andrew was stunned.
Wasn’t this thing very simple?
Actually, it wasn’t.
“I’ll send you the photos. Because there are more demon beasts over there, my father didn’t dare to stay for too long.”
Andrew soon received the photos he sent.
“It’s actually the crimson flame stone!”
Andrew was pleasantly surprised.
The crimson flame stone contained very rich fire elemental energy. It could be used to refine some fire elemental artifacts.
Such a large piece should be enough to refine three flying swords.
“These are the materials I need. When I get my hands on them, I can give you a ninth-grade demon core and an eighth-grade demon core.”
When Bennett heard this, he was delighted.
This reward was extremely rich.
After all, these materials weren’t of much use to them.
Bennett quickly sent over an address. It was in California.
Andrew flew on his sword and quickly rushed over.
There was a Death Valley Park in California. It was very famous.
The crimson flame stone that Bennett’s father had discovered was here.
After meeting Bennett’s father, Andrew found that although this person was in his forties, he was cultured and looked young.
“Hello, King Thunderblade. My name is Casia,” the middle-aged man said with a smile.
Andrew nodded.
“Where is the specific location of the crimson flame stone?”
“Do you really what that?” Casia asked with some doubt.
“Why do you ask?”
“Because…” Casia said hesitantly, “Because I found too many crimson flame stones.”
