BXBX NOVEL Chapter 258 Reaching Top
On the 2nd platform
Xyr gave him a final look and jumped above.
Paul Channa saw a man with a long sword on his waist coming towards him in armour.
He spoke. "What's your name? I haven't seen you be-"
"Please, be quiet and fight, I am already in a bad mood." Before Paul could ask his question, Zulfi declared his side of the words.
On the way towards the top platform, when Ezra and Xyr reached the 2nd platform. Ezra signalled Xyr to not land on 2nd platform and keep going upward.
~ZAAPAAKK~
A strange sound resounded, that forcefully brought Xyr onto the 2nd platform.
Countless gazes looked over, only to find a fiery-red figure proudly standing on the edge of 2nd platform, a red whip wrapped around its wrist like a circle of fire.
It was obviously Ravina Ingale. "Hey, did you guys forget about me?" Ravina Ingale smiled in annoyance
Xyr was taken aback, evidently not expecting Ravina to suddenly hit an ally. Given the latter's ability, no one else would dare to snatch any of the top ten spots she occupied.
"Ravina!" At this moment, the expression of Ezra, who had originally been heading towards the tallest golden stone platform, turned serious when he saw this, and angrily said, "Ravina, I was letting you have this platform, what the hell do you think you are doing?
Ravina shot a smile at him and retorted, "In my eyes, there is no difference between friends and foes during a competition, I do not want a seat that I don't deserve. Leave this one here, I will consider him as my opponent. Don't worry, I won't hurt him bad."
Ezra shook his head and said. "I am not worried about that straw hat, I am worried about you missy. He is stronger than you, you should accept our kindness."
These words hit proud Ravina as arrows. "How dare you belittle me! This stupid-looking man is stronger than me? Your words have made me angry Ezra, I will vent my anger on your subordinate."
Ezra sighed. "Women are sure dogged creatures."
Ravina ignored him, her bright eyes turning towards Xyr as she said, "Go and fight for first place, I'll test your so-called 'stronger than me' subordinate."
Xyr, who was silent finally opened his mouth. "Red girl, you have made a terrible mistake."
The killing intent he released shocked Ravina Ingale, her pulse beat faster. "What is this!"
"Xyr, if you kill her, I'll kill you." Ezra said before he set his eyes on the golden platform.
"Yes, master." Xyr calmly replied.
With a deep breath, Ezra's foot suddenly pushed downwards. Black and red chaos lightning danced around his body, transforming him into a flash of black and red that dashed towards the sky.
Ravina for the first time was awed by Ezra Zephyr. "Who exactly is he to command such a terrifying bunch of people?"
In a few dozen minutes, he stood at the same height as Drake Tubble.
Drake's handsome face was currently ominously stormy. He stared at the prince for a long time, before gradually suppressing the churning rage in his heart.
Drake frostily remarked, "You really are like a lingering ghost."
The prince grinned, before lifting his head to look towards the golden stone platform. "If not because you provoked me time and time again, I would not have had much interest in the first place and have remained a low profile."
It was indeed as he had said. His original goal had been top ten so that he would qualify for the right to choose his peak. As for number one, he never really gave it much thought, because it would reveal his potential.
But who would have expected the petty and narrow-minded Drake to repeatedly target him, one more thing that pushed Ezra to aim for the first rank is the reward, the Divine Spirit Ablution.
He also figured out that the disciple and elders here believe in the concept of 'Might is Right' so Drake's provocation was a blessing in disguise.
Drake's expression had already fully returned to normal. He stared at Ezra, a faint trace of disdain hanging from the corners of his mouth as he uncaringly said, "Are you saying this to make me feel regretful? Peasant wolf, you overestimate yourself.
Do you truly believe that you are any threat to me? In my eyes, you're just a dirty and disgusting mud mutt. All you are is an eyesore, but since you've now truly angered me, I can only stomp you to death!"
A chilling light flitted across Drake's eyes.
"You're such an ignorant fool that does not know the immensity of the realms, I will beat you till you wake up from your delusions, and let you know that compared to Shiyan geniuses like us, you're ultimately just a peasant that has never seen the world!"
When the final word left his mouth, powerful spiritual energy exploded from Drake's body like a storm. The spiritual energy carried him straight into the sky, before landing him on the golden stone platform.
At the same time, Drake's intensely chilling shout sounded across the area,
"Ezra Zephyr, get your ass up here! I will make sure that you will no longer dare to appear before me ever again!"
Ezra Zephyr in return was laughing, unusual to his evil smirk he was laughing quite loudly as if he heard a good joke or expecting a nice comedy show.
A split second later, black and red bolts of lightning formed wings behind his back and shot forth.
~SWIISH~
His figure also slowly landed on the highest golden stone platform under the attention of countless watching eyes.
Two figures faced each other on the golden stone platform.
It was akin to the confrontation between a tiger and a lion in the forest.
Even the sky above seemed to have been affected, turning dark and stormy.
The innumerable gazes in the area converged onto this very location.
Without a doubt, the battle here would decide the champion of the peak selection ceremony.
On the spiritual energy tree, even the 7 hegemons and numerous higher echelons of the Spirit Devouring Mountain cast their gazes downwards, stopping on the two young figures.
