Wang Teng activated his Spiritual Sight and looked at the 12 palaces. He realized that there were indeed 12 extremely strong balls of light sitting in the palaces.
The weakest is at the 11-star low-tier general stage. The strongest is… 13-star high-tier general stage! Wang Teng gasped and sighed in his heart. Mount Saint has a strong foundation!
“Bang!” A dull and strong bell tone from a clock echoed in the mountain.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound but couldn’t see the clock.
The high priest’s voice came from the front. “Everyone, the time has come. We will be starting the duels. Please come forward to draw lots.”
The martial warriors from all the nations entered the large colosseum and scattered in the different corners. Then, the representatives of the various countries went to the high priest to draw lots to decide the sequence of the first round of duels.
After some time, Dan Taixuan came back. Wang Teng asked, “What’s the result?”
“We will be the third in line for the first round. Our opponent is Country Raf.”
The duels were random. The most important aim was to let the nations display their power. Hence, all they had to do was fight. No one cared about fairness. The strongest would last until the end.
This was the principle of the duels in this exchange event.
Ji Xiuming and the others looked in Country Raf’s direction. The other party was watching them too. Their gaze collided in mid-air before they looked away silently.
“Who’s the first to go?” Dan Taixuan glanced at everyone and asked.
They all looked at one another. Ren Qingcang stood up suddenly and said, “I’ll go.”
Dan Taixuan turned to Wang Teng.
“There’s no hurry. Let’s see who our opponent sends out first,” Wang Teng contemplated before saying.
Ren Qingcang frowned, but he didn’t say anything in the end. Wang Teng was right. He wasn’t being biased, so he couldn’t object to his decision.
However, the arrogant Ren Qingcang still felt unhappy because Wang Teng was a level higher than him.
The first match started in the colosseum.
Both parties entered the arena. This was a competition between the White Eagle Nation and the Large Eagle Nation.
This was interesting.
The White Eagle Nation and the Large Eagle Nation were related in certain ways. The White Eagle Nation was an immigration nation. Towards the end of the 15th century, the first batch of immigrants headed to the current location of the White Eagle Nation and built a colony there.
As time progressed, the immigrants were unhappy with the governance of their original country, so an independence war occurred. To the Large Eagle Nation, the White Eagle Nation wasn’t a real country. It wasn’t legit.
No one expected the White Eagle Nation to be able to ride on the wave of the era and progress at an unexpected speed to become one of the world’s most powerful nations. It caught everyone off guard.
The Large Eagle Nation couldn’t do anything to them. However, whenever both sides met, there would always be conflict. A good show was about to start.
The White Eagle Nation sent an 8-star soldier-level martial warrior while the Large Eagle Nation sent a 9-star soldier-level martial warrior.
None of them chose to send their brigadier-general-stage martial warriors in the first round. It seemed like everyone had the same thought. They wanted to test the waters first before going all out.
Anyway, there was a difference in level between the competing martial warriors. The White Eagle Nation was at a disadvantage.
“It looks like the White Eagle Nation will lose. Losing the first round will affect the morale of the team greatly,” Qu Fei said.
“Hmph, the people from White Eagle Nation are still as stupid and ignorant as ever.” Parick scoffed. He didn’t seem to have a good impression of them.
“I can sense your strong bitterness.” Wang Teng glanced at Parick and continued, “It’s too early to judge. One’s level doesn’t represent one’s ability.”
“Do you think he will lose?” Parick asked.
Everyone looked at Wang Teng and frowned. Did he notice something?
Wang Teng didn’t reply to them and just stared at the arena.
The duel started soon after.

Both sides didn’t waste any time and attacked instantly. The martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation was of the fire element while the one from the Large Eagle Nation was an earth-element martial warrior. The Forces on their bodies exploded. When they collided in the center, an eruption occurred.
Boom!
The martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation was a level lower, so he suffered a defeat after the first round of exchange. He retreated a few steps from the collision.
The martial warrior from the Large Eagle Nation laughed. He increased his speed and dashed towards the martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation.
His weapon was a crusader sword, which was covered by thick earth Force. At the same time, earth Force sword conscious erupted.
Ground Breaking Slash!
A loud roar escaped the mouth of the martial warrior from the Large Eagle Nation. The crusader sword gave off a frightening sword glow as it slashed towards the martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation.
The martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation suddenly sneered when he saw this attack.
Roar!
A beast-like howl came from his mouth abruptly, and flames intertwined around his body. Then, an astonishing change occurred to his body.
His body suddenly expanded and grew longer. Scales started to appear on his skin, and he even grew… a tail!
His entire human form had changed. It was… disgusting! The ferocious aura of a wild beast spread in the air. At this moment, the martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation was a wild beast!
Dan Taixuan stood up from her seat suddenly. “What is this?”
She wasn’t the only one. The people from the other nations stood up too and stared intently at the martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation. There was bewilderment in their eyes.
The martial warrior from the Large Eagle Nation squinted when he saw the change in his opponent. He felt a sense of danger instinctively, but his sword conscious was already released. It was too late to retract it.
His gaze turned sharp as he released more Force. He slashed his crusader sword down viciously.
Boom!
The martial warrior from the White Eagle Nation didn’t dodge. The flames on his body gathered into a blade glow, which crashed into the crusader sword.
Light exploded. The collision of the Force swept throughout the arena.
To everyone’s surprise, the powerful attack didn’t cause much damage to the ground of the colosseum. Only some rock fragments and dust on the ground were blown into the air.
Of course, no one dwelled on the sturdiness of the arena. All their attention was focused on the fight currently taking place. This was just an exploratory duel, but the sudden mutation of the White Eagle Nation’s martial warrior had attracted everyone’s gaze.
The attention on this match was exceptionally high.
Both parties separated amidst the fluctuation of Forces. Then, they clashed once again.
Two rays of lights kept colliding violently in the arena. The red and yellow rays of light set off loud explosions…
Suddenly, a figure flew out.
It was… the martial warrior from the Large Eagle Nation.
The crusader sword in his hand was destroyed in the collision just now. His body had suffered a serious injury in the onslaught of fire Force attacks from his opponent. He was vomiting blood continuously.
Gasp!
Everyone was dumbstruck. The mutation of the White Eagle Nation’s martial warrior had given him so much power!
He won against someone who had a higher level than him!
8-star soldier level versus 9-star soldier level. The 8-star soldier level won!
Everyone’s gaze was flickering. They looked at the mutated form of the martial warrior in deep thought.
Wang Teng’s eyes were shining as he picked up the attribute bubbles in the arena.
