LOGINJavier was incredibly fast, and his movements were as fluid and elusive as a venomous snake's, making it impossible to pinpoint his exact position.Lethal currents of venomous killing intent constantly surged from his body toward Ashton, aiming to inject these deadly toxins into Ashton's system and subject him to agonizing torture."Be careful!" Lucia exclaimed, her features growing taut on the elevated platform. She clenched her fists tightly as she murmured under her breath. She couldn't bear to see Ashton get hurt."You're nothing but a venomous insect, yet you dare to behave with such insolence in my presence!" Ashton scoffed, his Drakeborne lineage coursing violently within him. He quickly clenched his fists as he unleashed an immensely potent, scorching energy. He then used his draconic vision to instantly lock onto Javier's position as he threw a powerful punch. With a loud crash, the vast power of the fist surged forward, shattering the surrounding space as it went and
In that instant, Javier's gray poisonous energy spread across the sky, shimmering with a sinister, deadly glow. In the blink of an eye, it swept over Ashton, swallowing him from all sides.Ashton was completely enveloped, becoming one with the gray poisonous energy. "He's done for! He was just asking for death by getting onto the stage! He was just a shameless attention seeker!""It's such a shame since he's pretty good-looking!""It seems that no one can prevent Lucia from becoming Javier's bride now!""Hold on! That venom isn't breaking through his defenses!"Then someone gasped in shock and pointed at Ashton, exclaiming, "He's blocking all of Javier's killing intent outside his domain! How is he doing that? That's an incredible feat!"The winds howled, and once the enveloping energy cleared, the crowd discovered to their horror that Ashton remained standing exactly where he had been. His expression was fierce and unyielding as he regarded Javier with a look of pure scorn.
"I hereby sentence you to death!" Ashton was the one who spoke up. He appeared on the stage in a flash and stood face to face with Javier. His black robe rustled against the swift wind, his imposing demeanor already completely overshadowing Javier's momentum."W-Who is this?"In that instant, an uproar broke out all around, with countless gazes focused on Ashton, revealing shocked expressions."He's actually stepping onto the stage right now? Does he really have a death wish? He's facing an expert from the Heavenly Medical Pavilion who has reached the semi-otherworldly realm! Where on earth does this man get his confidence?""He's actually a peak divine realm expert! He's evidently an exceptional prodigy, but at this moment, mere talent is entirely futile. He won't be able to stand against Javier without breaking through the divine realm. "Javier's control over poison is terrifying as well, making him far more dangerous than a standard semi-otherworldly realm expert. Thus, defe
Javier's distorted features contracted violently, resembling a malevolent spirit from purgatory. He swiftly manipulated his semi-otherworldly realm energy, directing a devastating, lethal attack toward Theo.In that instant, Theo's sword momentum was swallowed by waves of energy and rapidly turned to dust. Within just a few breaths, the venomous killing intent fueled by the semi-otherworldly realm power completely overwhelmed Theo, leaving him with virtually no room to fight back.A deafening explosion like fireworks erupted, and Theo's body blew apart, killing him brutally right before everyone's eyes. His blood splattered everywhere, dealing a devastating shock to everyone present.Up on the elevated platform, Xavion and Lucia both rose to their feet in utter shock, a wave of pure panic washing over them.Someone muttered, "It's over! Javier actually broke through the shackles of the divine realm and attained the strength of the semi-otherworldly realm! Who among our Central Re
In that instant, the domains of two experts collided, producing an ear-piercing crash."It's actually Theo Guzman! He's the top swordsman in Central Region and a pinnacle of the divine realm expert! There are rumors that he was raised and trained by Xavion himself!""It appears that Lord Mott intends to personally intervene to prevent Javier from laying claim to Lucia!""That's more like it! Lord Mott had a backup plan all along!""Excellent! Theo's going to teach Javier a lesson for sure and stop Ms. Mott from marrying him. There's no way we can let that ugly freak defile my goddess!"The crowd started buzzing with chatter all over again.Up on the stage, Javier's expression barely changed. He merely swept a cold glance over Theo and scoffed, saying, "I wondered who it was. It turned out you're Mr. Mott's backup plan. It's a pity, really, as you won't be able to stop me from taking Lucia as my wife.""I'll spare your life if you surrender now and step down from the stage, Javie
"Rowen was one of our top talents in Central Region! Did you really have to kill him? You didn't show even a shred of mercy, Javier!" Xavion barked."You've got it all wrong, Mr. Mott. I had no intention of killing Rowen. He was just too weak to hold his own against a casual blow. You ought to know that once experts step onto the stage, accidents are bound to happen. You get that, don't you, Mr. Mott?"Javier continued indifferently, "If they don't want to die, they can just stop fighting me. I'll be honest, I don't think there is a single genius in the entire Central Region more qualified to marry Lucia than I am. You can rest assured about handing Lucia over to me, Mr. Mott. I'll definitely treat Lucia well."Upon hearing that, Lucia shuddered all over, her eyes brimming with horror. She looked at the toxic growths covering Javier's face and his repulsive features. Her stomach churned violently. She would rather die than marry a man like Javier.Xavion glared intently at Javier
"Do you find me beautiful, Mr. Gray?" Elise inquired abruptly, her eyes taking on a deep, shimmering quality. Her voice, dripping with seduction, issued forth as her Bewitching Gaze bore down on Ashton. It was an apparent attempt to overwhelm his senses and claim him completely in that instant."

"Did you have fun last night?" Sylvia's voice carried a hint of teasing, mixed with jealousy.Ashton panicked and hurried to change the subject. He cleared his throat.
