"I too hope that you will not provoke me." He said in a loud voice, his eyes narrowed slightly, a certain sharpness appearing on his slightly pursed lips.
Drake stopped and looked back at him.
"Or else, Shiyan Continent will lose a precious genius." He replied with a wicked grin.
The eyes of Shiyan's disciples widened and they moved towards Ezra. However, just at that time, hundreds of Naran Continent geniuses gathered behind Ezra Zephyr.
The tension rose, every eye was on these two groups who have been at each other's throats from the start.
"Let's go." Drake calmly said as the rest gritted their teeth and followed him.
The prince giggled and looked at his subordinates. "Who is hungry?"
Thousand Meal House.
This was an eatery in the outer mountains area. For the numerous outer mountain disciples, it was a place with extremely good service. The wide range of delicacies available was only second to the high grade ingredients used. Not only would the food satisfy your appetite, but it would also benefit your cultivation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOf course, one needed to pay Spirit jade to enjoy the services here. Hence, extremely few disciples could afford to come here during the initial period.
At this current moment, Ezra had brought Xyr, Zulfi Dimitry, Argue, Theor and the rest of the Naran geniuses here, and booked a table to celebrate his breakthrough to the 2nd Level Core Formation stage.
"Woah! I saw this place yesterday but did not even dare to step in. Thanks to his majesty, I can finally have a taste of its delicacies today." Gill Subzi chuckled, his face practically gleaming.
After arriving at the Spirit Devouring Mountain, everyone had become rather poor, no longer the doted and pampered geniuses they were before.
Hence, they were initially unable to afford to come to such a place.
Ezra smiled, a smile filled with raw physical pain. When he ordered earlier, he had discovered that the main component of practically all of the dishes were 1st and 2nd tier Martial Animals. Even for the soup, numerous rare spiritual resources were used to enhance its flavour.
"His majesty was so cool today. Let's see if they still dare to look down on our Naran Continent." By the side, a rather pretty young girl with a goose egg shaped face grinned widely.
She was called Amalia and her house was also a noble house in a human kingdom.
The others also smiled and nodded.
One could see that they had completely put down their previous mental block and started to truly treat Ezra as their core.
Over the past two days, they had clearly felt how intense the competition was in the Spirit Devouring Mountain. If they did not group together, they would only be bullied and trampled on by others.
As the only five first class disciples from the Naran Continent, Ezra, Xyr, Zulfi, Argus, Shifa and Theor were the strongest among them. Thus, they naturally became the central pillars of the group with Ezra as the supreme leader.
Ezra looked at Theor and asked. "How does it feel like to have the 6th-grade martial spirit?"
"Haha, very powerful, your majesty." Theor answered with a grin.
The cubic pill that he got on the Spirity Bailiwick as the reward was given to Theor by him. Theor was the brains of his little army, however, he lacked in prowess compared to the other three of Bloodfang Kingdon. With the cubic pill that has a 6th-grade martial spirit, that gap was filled.
The prince turned at everyone and said, "Theor told me that the other disciples have begun forming their own groups and factions during the past two days, while we Naran disciples were the only ones that were left out. In hindsight, it was due to me that you guys were implicated."
He gently smiled, before continuing, "I'm honestly interested in forming a group, but since we are all from the Naran Continent. I will naturally try to take care of you guys."
Gill Subzi lifted his cup and declared, "These words of his majesty are enough already."
As he spoke, he suddenly nudged the silent Cen Zutton beside him.
The latter's expression was somewhat rigid. He lifted his head and glanced at Ezra Zephyr, hesitating somewhat before he finally said, "Before we left the Naran Continent, my father told me that he has sent an envoy to the Bloodfang Kingdom to seek an alliance."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEzra calmly nodded. It was not hard to believe that the wealthy merchandise owner of the human empire had done such a thing.
One must know that Zutton Merchandise was amongst the big traders of the human empire and in terms of trade, no one could surpass the human race. This will open up a lot of doors for Bloodfang and will give its economy a huge boost.
The reason why Cen Zutton's father had done so was likely because he knew about the grudge between his son and Ezra Zephyr. Was this how the former planned to resolve it?
"What a tactic, he's a clever man." Ezra secretly thought to himself. The Zutton Merchandise lord had chosen to ally with the Bloodfang Kingdom because of him.
The prince of Bloodfang Kingdom could not help but sigh inside. No wonder Zutton Merchandise was growing increasingly powerful under the current lord's leadership.
Ezra picked up his cup, and was silent for a moment, before he lifted it towards Cen Zutton and said, "Let all our previous grudges end here."
The main reason why Cen Zutton had made things difficult for Ezra in the auction was due to Emily Jomez's egging. However, the former had ended up gaining nothing, and instead made Ezra, a genius amongst geniuses his enemy.
After leaving the sovereignty side of Naran Continent and arriving at the Spirit Devouring Mountain, Ezra's view of the world had changed, and the likes of Cen Zutton no longer posed any threat in his eyes.
Since the merchandise lord wants to resolve the grudge between the two of them, there was no reason for him to make a fuss, as he was a calculating man.
Cen Zutton's lips moved, but did not say anything in the end, merely lifting his own cup and downing it in a single go.
Following the closure of their grudge, the atmosphere immediately eased up, turning noisy and lively. Everyone present was a youngster and had come a long way from home to this unfamiliar place. Hence, they soon warmed up to each other.
