Chapter 2221
James and Wendel were engaged in a fierce battle inside the Moonlit Ridge Painting.
As their powers collided once more, it was apparent that there was a power disparity between James and Wendel.
Even though James possessed great strength, he was much lower in rank compared to Wendel. He would not be
able to emerge victorious without using Sacrilegious
Ascension.
However, he had no plans of using Sacrilegious Ascension. After all, he was targeted by the Divinity Sect precisely
because of this cultivation method.
“You’re strong.” James looked at Wendel and said, “I’m no match for you.”
James did not overexert himself but instead concealed his true strength.
Wendel said, “I can tell that you haven’t used your full strength. Fight with me seriously.”

Since you have already accomplished what you came here for, please leave.”
He did not act rashly. Even though he would gain the right to head directly to the central region by defeating
Wendel, there was no point in doing this.
Since James was reluctant to fight, Wendel had no other choice. He said nothing and simply turned to leave.
After Wendel left, Melany walked over to James and asked puzzledly, “James, why didn’t you go all-out and defeat
him?”
James smiled bitterly and said, “Defeating him is near impossible for me. After all, he possesses far greater
strength than me. Besides, as a disciple of the Welkin Academy, he must have cultivated many powerful cultivation
methods. If we fight seriously, I won’t stand at chance against him.”
“Is that so?” Melany was doubtful. To her, James was strong enough to remain unscathed after withstanding
Wendel’s blows.
“Let’s get going.”
Then, James turned to leave.
In the outside world…
After leaving the Moonlit Ridge Painting, Wendel approached Yoan and said respectfully, Master, he refused to
continue the battle. I can tell that he hasn’t used his full strength.”
Yoan nodded slightly and said, “I see… You’ve done well, Wendel. Go take a rest.”
“Understood.” Wendel nodded and turned to leave.
In the Moonlit Ridge Painting, James and Melany continued in the direction of the central region. However, they
proceeded at a snail’s pace. That was because James wanted to secure more tokens for Melany.
The cultivators they encountered along the way posed no threat to James. Regardless, James did not act ruthlessly
by seizing all of their tokens. As long as the examinees did not lose all
their tokens, they would have the right to continue the examination.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Three days later, James and Melany arrived at the central region.
This was a spacious piece of land, on which an arena was constructed. The arena was several kilometers in both
length and width and shielded by a mysterious Magic Circle formed using unique scriptures. It glimmered a dazzling
white light.
When they arrived, there were no other examinees at the spot. Only a few disciples of the Welkin Academy could
be seen.
“We finally made it.”
When they arrived at the central region, Melany breathed a sigh of relief. By then, she already had more than 20
thousand tokens in her possession. It should secure a pretty solid spot in the rankings.
“Thank you, James.”
She was grateful for what James did for her.
James smiled and said, “No trouble at all, Melany. If you hadn’t saved me, I wouldn’t have recovered this quickly.
Perhaps I’d have perished in the wilderness.”
Hearing this, Melany smiled.
