In actual fact, anyone who had lived in the Holy City for a period of time would have heard that the relationship between Cadillana and Bilro was relatively good, and that both of them intended on working together to get rid of Wang Zheng, who was an outsider.
On the outside, Wang Zheng was undoubtedly the most famous, but here, Wang Zheng was merely a normal person. If not for the physical techniques used by Wang Zheng, which made use of the inner universe, he would not have any reputation here.
The five core Sons of Saint each had their own pride. As the martial techniques practiced by everyone originated from the Saint, regardless of background, talent, or luck, the techniques they received would be 128 Points. However, for the five core Sons of Saint, they would receive 200 point techniques. This was accomplished through the efforts of the Saint after more than a hundred years, developing the strongest techniques suited for the Five Elements Spiritual Body. One’s spiritual body determines their talent, and the martial techniques determine their strength. To fight against the five of them, it would require some courage.
Sarah, Tan Yuyang, and Mo Ling were watching the show. They did not mind Cadillana attacking Wang Zheng, and in the best case, it would end in mutual destruction, enabling them to reap the benefits.
On Oracle Star, the damage done by Ability X was far too weak against those who understood the inner universe. Unless Ability X had strength which was beyond comprehension, the effects were minimal.
The inner universe had two separate stages. The initial stage was to have enough energy to produce five element energy, and absorbing external energy for one’s own use. In the second stage involved the true mastery of the universe, which was mastering the power of atoms. This was the strength of truly mastering the “inner universe”. Using external strength was merely a means. Wang Zheng’s performance in SIG was decent, and was exceptional in various aspects, but how strong were his ancient arts physical techniques?
Over here, the distinction was different. Those whole failed to enter the inner circles of the five core Sons of Saint thought of striking it out their own or to serve others. However, it was a difficult decision to make.
The few of them watched Wang Zheng as if they were watching a show. His ego may have been inflated in SIG, but it was indeed interesting for him to be full of himself on the Oracle Star. They watched to see who would entertain him.
Before anyone had said anything, a figure appeared.
“Wang Zheng, you came a bit late. I didn’t expect to be able to fulfill my wish so soon, to fight alongside you.” Jondi Lilick smiled. Lilick was not a nobody. He was well known in Manalasuo, and in here, there were at least five people from Manalasuo, or with relations to Manalasuo. Many times, the Saint was unable to separate itself from all these relations.
“Us as well.” Arbiter’s Van brothers, Olivios and Mars, came as well. Olivios had mostly recovered together with Mars. They were both interested in this place. If the Saint had known this, they would not have wasted so much effort to get them here.
Xie Yuxin and Yuan Jing came too. Seeing Xie Yuxin was a pleasant surprise for Wang Zheng. When their gazes met, with no words exchanged, they understood each other.
Some people moved, but stopped halfway. These people were indeed famous. If this were the outside, it would be the utmost honor to be on the same team as them. However, over here, it represented danger.
Wang Zheng did not care, as the people he had were enough.
The explanation of the rules had ended, and the battle of the Oracle had officially begun. However, the temple was not a good place to fight. Wang Zheng and the rest left under the watch of everyone.
Cadillana and Bilro did not start attacking immediately, as no one wanted to reveal their trump cards in front of their rivals. Wang Zheng and the rest would not live past three days.
When they were outside, Jondi Lilick and the rest were exceptionally excited. For experts like them, they were quick to adapt to their environment, and their understanding of battles was well above average. They had the ability to learn fast, and when they started using their brains, they would improve rapidly. However, they did not dare to act carelessly. No one knew what the five of them were capable of. It was a pity they did not have their mecha, or the few of them would have turned the Holy City into ashes.
Xie Yuxin smiled. “This is not the place for us to talk, let us go there. The next few days will be busy for us.”
This team has Wang Zheng, Xie Yuxin, Mars, Olivios, Jondi Lilick, with Yuan Jing, Mengha, Kang Siqi, and Huo Dong tagging along, which was pretty decent, and at least much better than what Wang Zheng had in the past.
The crux of the issue was how to break through!
The human world was in a mess, and Atlantis was not doing any better. Turmoil like this could result in a reshuffle of power, which would not be good for Atlantis, but there was nothing they could do, as one of the sources of this turmoil was Aslan.
The Empress sat on her throne, with Hao Lin sitting on the left, on the seat for the crown prince. On the right, on a slightly higher position, was a quiet, and as beautiful as a painting, Atlantean girl, just like an elf, with eyes clear and shining like jewels, as well as clear and pristine skin.
The tall and slender figure, wearing the attire of an Atlantean princess, revealing slender and white legs, made people exceptionally excited. This was a godlike beauty, elegant and proper, at the same time keeping her innocence.
This was Atlantis’ true royalty, the one and only princess, Xin Yue Atlas.
Beneath them was Atlantis’ nine main governors, which represented the inner circle of the Atlantis Empire’s power.
“Your Highness, as the prophecy has predicted, the humans have begun to fight. Please tell us what to do.”
Slovk’s governor bowed respectfully to the Empress. The Atlanteans did not know if they should remain neutral or join the battle, as there was no such thing as remaining truly neutral. As the war progressed, allies of the past would have requests, and the Milky Way Alliance would have requests as well. Being stuck in the middle and not taking a stand was simply escaping from reality.
“The future remains unknown. We have summoned everyone here today to use our wisdom to determine the future of Atlantis.”
Empress Atlas spoke gently.
In the huge discussion hall, it was so quiet that all that could be heard was her voice. “The Oracle can confirm that his every single decision will change the future.”
Erfusalu’s governor stepped forward and said, “Since the Oracle has been decided, for Atlantis’ future, shouldn’t we do something?”
“Hao Lin has already begun. If we were to do any more, it would be too much. The Oracle may descend, but it could vanish as it is too weak. We can’t risk Atlantis in a gamble,” the Empress said. Since the beginning of SIG, the Atlanteans had been watching Wang Zheng and maintaining their distance, but although Wang Zheng had grown stronger, it was not enough.
“But if we do nothing, once the Saint gets the Oracle… it will be a disaster!”
Eternal life? That was the simplest, most basic, and most meaningless pursuit.
The enlightenment of the whole civilization!
This was the true pursuit, the grand ambition, a grand wish!
In the book from Atlantis passed down for generations, this person would be able to solve Atlantis’ problems and help save Atlantis from destruction. For this, Atlanteans would provide unwavering support. The problem was that Wang Zheng was far from strong enough to meet the Atlanteans’s expectations. If they were to go against the principles they had all along, their position would no longer be the same.
“We do not need to be directly involved in the war, what I mean is to…”
Erfusalu glanced towards the Empress’ right.
Joint marriage!
This was a method used by the Atlanteans, but it caused a discussion, with some supporting it and others opposing it.
