Chapter 740: Chapter 389: As You Wish

This Blood Dragon Paste was just as Gary had mentioned before, truly beyond reproach.

However, Song Chi sighed because the amount was too little. Additionally, since he had already taken many resources for strengthening his physique in the past, this small portion of Blood Dragon Paste had a very limited effect on enhancing his body.

About this, although he showed no unusual expression outwardly, he couldn’t help feeling somewhat disappointed deep down.

At that moment, Gary leaned closer to him and whispered in his ear,

“Feeling unsatisfied is normal, if you want more Blood Dragon Paste, it all depends on your own ability from here on out!”

Song Chi: ???

Song Chi was puzzled, but the next moment, the voice from the high platform quickly provided him with an answer.

“Ladies and gentlemen, as always, my Mitchell Family will contribute another box of Blood Dragon Paste as the prize for the last combat segment of this banquet…”

Upon hearing this, Song Chi understood that there was always a combat segment at the end of every Fire Dragon Banquet.

The production of Blood Dragon Paste was never easy, and for the Mitchell Family to offer a small portion to each attendee was already quite generous. But if one wanted more, they would have to fight for it on the stage.

Of course, this segment was only open to Third Rank Torch Captains, somewhat an indirect investment from the Mitchell Family for their most excellent juniors.

Although it required combat, the Blood Dragon Paste was still provided by the Mitchell Family, and the eventual victor should remember to be grateful to the Mitchell Family in their hearts.

With this statement, several Third Rank Torch Captains down below were already gearing up, eager to take the stage and try their luck.

But then another voice was heard.

“It’s not fair to always let the Mitchell family provide the prize, so let me personally add something as well.”

As she spoke, Amanda Frandy produced two palm-sized crystal stones.

“These are two Antimatter Energy Crystals, also quite rare items.”

As Amanda Frandy made her contribution, several Sixth Rank powerhouses seated with her naturally could not remain without responding.

Soon, several prizes were brought forth, among them Medici Vladimir contributed a Low Level Space Law Crystal, adding even more value to the competition.

Crack Crack Crack!

The sound of mechanical gears turning resonated in the hall, and to everyone’s amazement, a mechanical platform with a diameter of a kilometer suddenly lowered from above.

Inside the platform, the voice of the Mitchell Family Head resonated once again.

“Today’s theme is celebration; let’s skip the warship bombardment. For this battle, no participant should summon warships or use any capabilities of their flagships; this battle will solely belong to the Torch Captains!”

Suddenly, the whole hall was abuzz. A battle between captains? This was indeed unexpected.

Even Song Chi furrowed his brow subconsciously. If it was a battle of warships, he feared no one, but the thought of fighting personally made him hesitant.

Yet thinking of the Blood Dragon Paste, the Antimatter Energy Crystals, and the Low Level Space Law Crystal, his gaze became resolute.

After all, he had to give it a try.

It wasn’t long before the first Third Rank Torch Captain ascended the mechanical combat platform.

According to Zhou Li, this person was the legitimate heir from a Ducal Mansion of the Frandy Kingdom.

And what was a Kingdom’s Ducal Mansion? It was a force with a Sixth Rank Fearless Ship at its disposal!

When the second participant took the stage, the battle between the two Third Rank Torch Captains erupted instantly.

This second person was also a legitimate heir from another Sixth Rank power, and both of them pursued the Law of Fire.

To ordinary spectators, the two combatants wielding flame swords seemed well-matched, but through Song Chi’s double pupils, it was entirely different.

Under his enhanced vision, Song Chi could discern a substantial difference in their Comprehension Degree of the Law of Fire; one had reached about 0.7% while the other was only at 0.6%.

Although the difference was only 0.1%, whether it was the Might under the Law Enhancement, the proficiency of using the Law, or the effects after activating secret techniques, the disparities were significant, and naturally, the one with a Comprehension Degree of 0.7% in the Law of Fire was the first to claim victory.

In the following moments, one after another, over a hundred Third Rank Torch Captains took the stage, but none stood out excessively; the strongest in Law Comprehension barely reached just over 0.8%.

At that time, a voice suddenly came from behind Gary. It was the indomitable Elisa Frandy, who took the initiative to step onto the mechanical platform herself.

For a moment, the entire castle hall fell eerily silent.

As the princess of the Kingdom and the gem in the palm of the entire Kingdom, although her strength was not weak with over 1% in Law Comprehension, who would dare to challenge her on stage?

Should any mishap occur, what then?

In the end, it was Duke Ackerman Frandy who spoke up, which led the reluctant Princess Elisa to step down.

However, her act seemed to ignite a fuse.

Successively, legitimate heirs of first-rate and super first-rate powers of the Kingdom began to take the stage.

These participants all had Law Comprehensions typically above 1%.

“Roar roar roar!”

Above the high platform, the illusory shadow of a colossal beast made entirely of Fire Attribute Laws roared skyward, resembling a mythical Flame Dragon.

At this moment, on the mechanical platform, the battle was between Christa from the Mitchell Family and another legitimate heir of another super-first-rate power of the Kingdom.

With the foundational secret technique “Flame Dragon State” of the Mitchell Family enhancing her, the opponent could no longer withstand Christa Michelle’s ferocious assault and was ultimately blasted off the mechanical platform.

“Yes!”

In the hall, guests cheered; the duel was indeed spectacular. Christa Michelle’s comprehension of the Law of Fire had already exceeded 1.5%, making her technique, “Flame Dragon State,” extremely potent.

As this duel ended, only a few guests in the entire hall had yet to participate.

At that moment, the gaze of every guest in the hall suddenly shifted to Feike Vladimir, who had stood up on his own.

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, the legitimate heir to the true Immortal Clan of the kingdom clenched the Spectral Energy flames around him, and the next second, he dramatically leaped up.

“Thud!”

A dull thud was heard as the legitimate heir of the Immortal Clan landed on the mechanical platform.

“Please enlighten me!”

Across from him, Christa, who had become solemn the moment Feike Vladimir stepped onto the mechanical platform, initiated the conversation, but the attitude of the Immortal Clan’s heir seemed somewhat condescending.

“Enlighten? Perhaps not quite!”

Christa furrowed her eyebrows slightly, taking a moment to understand his remark.

Below, loud cheering from Elisa could be heard.

“Christa, go for it!”

Soon, a signal sound came from the side, indicating the official start of the duel.

Christa, fully focused, immediately summoned the ethereal Law Flame Dragon again. Aware of her opponent’s identity, she dared not underestimate him.

Only when she was fully enveloped by the phantom of the conjured Law Flame Dragon did Christa slightly relax. At the same time, she raised the red flame longsword in her hand, believing she had made the most suitable response.

However, upon seeing the fiery giant snake condensed atop Feike’s head—more solid and larger than her own Law Flame Dragon—her clear pupils briefly flashed with the shadow of vertical pupils, a momentary lapse.

Feike Vladimir, enveloped entirely by flames, seemed to dissolve on the spot, and all the guests in the great hall saw a fiery long snake piercing through the platform; the next second, Christa was sent flying back.

Eventually caught by Elisa, disbelief still filled her eyes.

On the other hand, at the center of the high platform, the head of the Mitchell Family shook his head gently.

“She’s still lacking in battle experience, daring to look directly at the Fire Cotton Snake initially…”

Hearing this, a Sixth Rank Torch Ship Captain from the side explained:

“You say that, but the Fire Cotton Snake is among the top three Starry Sky Behemoths of the Fire Attribute. Their Fire Cotton eyes are always unexpectedly defensive. We’re all so; how much more so for the younger generation?”

Someone added:

“Medici, congratulations. It seems the Vladimir Family has produced another prodigy. Judging by the Law of Fire comprehension degree, it must not be less than 2%!”

This flattery brought a smile to the face of this core figure of the Vladimir Family, darkening the expression of Amanda Frandy nearby for a good while.

Several seconds later, seeing no other challenger coming forward, the Fourth Rank Torch Ship Captain from the Mitchell Family took charge:

“Are there any more challengers? If no one enters the platform in the next 10 seconds, the victory of this duel will belong to Feike Vladimir.”

“Oh!”

As soon as these words were uttered, they instantly caused an outcry throughout the entire hall.

…

“Do you want to try? If you really don’t want to, I can take you away, and no one will say anything!”

By his side, Gary spoke softly, although his low tone still drew the gaze of Zhou Li, Ke Lin, Elisa, and others.

Before Song Chi could reply, Feike’s indifferent voice from the mechanical platform preempted him.

“Come up then. This is the battle everyone here has been expecting, isn’t it? It will also give me a chance to see what the official members of the ‘Big Dipper Seven Stars Hall’ are made of!”

His words didn’t specify anyone, but all the guests in the hall turned their gaze to the same spot, everyone keenly aware whom Feike Vladimir from the platform referred to.

“As you wish!”

Song Chi didn’t say much else, as four calm words left his lips. The next moment, a slight spacetime fluctuation passed under his feet, and in the blink of an eye, his figure had appeared on the mechanical platform.

One on the left and one on the right, both men stood on opposite sides of the platform.

Though no one spoke, the entire castle hall could vaguely see the sparks flying between their gazes.

“The Space Law, huh… truly formidable youth!”

Watching the abundance of Space Law power surrounding Song Chi on the mechanical combat platform, the Mitchell Family Head and several Sixth Rank Torch Ship Captains couldn’t help but exclaim. Even Medici Vladimir, ever so elegant, had ripples in his eyes.

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

Flames spread, baking the upper airspace of the entire castle hall with boundless high temperature, and in this domain of flames stood an enormous Law Flame Giant Snake.

It was the Vladimir Family’s fundamental secret technique “Fire Snake Form” that had condensed into the massive Fire Cotton Snake.

Across this domain of flames, a severely warped space crackled with dark, sharp fractures, and similarly immense, an ethereal Dragon Whale swam and chanted.

It was the Law Dragon Whale, condensed by Song Chi’s secret technique “Dragon Whale State.”

At this moment, a considerable whirlwind had risen in the entire castle hall, born from the collision of the two domains of Law powers.
