Hail the King

Chapter 988: We Are Brothers from Now On (Part One)

This technique named [Righteous Lord of Body] had a tough condition; only a peak Burning Sun Lord could cultivate it. However, the masters who reached this level were all proud; why would they turn to cultivate a body-tempering technique? It was like telling the CEO of a Fortune 500 Company to start new and build a local small business. Therefore, in the late stage of the Mythical Era, this technique was gradually lost.

However, in this era where people’s bodies were much weaker compared to the races that dominated the Mythical Era, this technique could make many warriors fall over themselves trying to obtain it.

Fei wanted to create a good relationship with Cassano since his impression of this man was great. Therefore, he didn’t hold back and told [Strange Being] the cultivation method and the tips; he didn’t alter anything.

“Ah! Splendid! This is amazing! Excellent!”

Cassano was on the List of Young Lords, so his vision and comprehension were on another level. As soon as he heard the technique and the key points from Fei, he knew that this was an amazing technique, and he was so elated that he clapped his hands and danced.

When all the different techniques were cultivated to the peak, they would boil down to the basics.

Cassano was known for his delicate movements and combat techniques, but he was lacking in terms of physical strength, and it had been troubling him for a long time.

For all these years, Cassano had been trying to reduce this shortcoming, but he wasn’t able to do so. One factor was that he was more talented in speed and an agility-based combat style, and the other factor was that he lacked a good body-tempering technique.

The body-tempering techniques on the continent were all low-tier. They were useful for Star-Level Warriors, but they were meaningless for a supreme master like Cassano.

For any master, if they wanted to aim for the supreme godly throne, having a clear shortcoming in one’s martial system was a crucial setback.

However, completely different from Cassano, the Human Emperor of the North had a unique warrior path where his physical strength was insane.  Although he didn’t cultivate warrior energy or magic energy, the king’s physical strength was powerful enough to rival those two energy forms; this was no longer a secret in the circle of supreme masters. As a result, many people estimated that the Human Emperor of the North obtained a unique body-tempering technique.

This was why Cassano couldn’t hold back and wanted to test Fei as soon as he saw the king.

This childish man wanted to see if Fei’s physical strength had reached the peak realm, just like the rumors had said.

After the brief practice battle, Cassano knew that the rumors were all true, and he couldn’t hold back his desire for Fei’s cultivation method. The good thing was that despite his recklessness and willfulness, he was a righteous man who never resorted to evil practices. Therefore, he grabbed onto Fei and wanted the king to take him in as a disciple so that he could learn this technique the proper way.

Now hearing Fei teaching him everything there was to know about the [Righteous Lord of Body], Cassano waved his arms and jumped around like a monkey; he was too excited.

When Fei finished teaching, Cassano calmed down and stood still for one minute as if he became dull; he only woke up after the explosions from the battles further away startled him.

This young lord of the Central Region who was known for his pranks and his attitude of not taking things seriously put away his playful smile, and he bowed at Fei three times with an earnest expression as he said, “Thank you, Alexander. From now on, you are my brother. Regardless of what you need, I, Antonio Cassano, will help you without hesitation, even if it is torturous!”

Fei was pleased, and he thought, “I have been waiting for you to say that! This man sure knows what is going on!”

After Cassano bowed, the two looked at each other and laughed; their appreciation of each other was shown through non-verbal cues.

When they finished laughing, Fei looked up and was surprised. He wasn’t sure when, but Pato, Milito, Shaarawy, and Palacio were standing not too far away and looking at them.

It turned out that the two battles were over a while ago, and Execution Oracle Collina and Execution Oracle Henning got what they deserved.

“We heard long ago that the Human Emperor of the North is a grandmaster and created many cultivation techniques, raising more than ten saints himself. Now seeing this, we know that the rumors are true,” Shaarawy laughed and sighed.

He still looked aggressive, but his attitude toward Fei turned from appreciation to admiration.

The battles were over when Fei was half-way through teaching Cassano.

Seeing Cassano almost dancing over here, the four’s curiosity was piqued, and they slightly listened in. However, they were stunned by the delicate technique. After listening to Fei explaining the technique for a few seconds, the four young lords felt like they were back to when they were young and listened to their masters’ lectures.

These four were all proud masters, and they had strong discipline. After listening for a while, they knew that the Human Emperor of the North was teaching Cassano a rare body-tempering technique that could be listed as a Mythical Technique.

The four young lords looked at each other and put away their playful attitude. Then, they stood further away and temporarily cut off their hearing in the case that Fei misunderstood them as stealing.

“This crazy Cassano sure got lucky today!”

Although these four young men moved away, they couldn’t help but think back to the portion of [Righteous Lord of Body] that they heard. The genius of this technique was hard to describe. To supreme masters like them, it felt ticklish as if tens of thousands of kittens were lightly scratching their hearts

For a moment, the four looked at Cassano almost in ‘jealousy, envy, and hate’.

“Mr. Shaarawy, that is an overstatement.”

Hearing the praise from a young lord, the king’s vanity was greatly satisfied, but he still had to act humble on the surface.

“Hehehe,” Shaarawy suddenly laughed cunningly and said, “Alexander, seeing what Cassano got, I’m a little tempted to practice with you. Hehe, how about we have a practice match as well?”

Before Fei could respond, Shaarawy dashed forward and punched out while purple flames gushed out.

“Eh…” Fei didn’t know what to say, and he could only raise his fists to respond.

Boom!

The two fists collided, and terrifying power splashed into the area. Instantly, purple heavenly flames engulfed the surroundings.

On the side, the four young lords looked at each other and flashed, guarding the main battlefield from four sides. Then, they slightly released their power and created an invisible energy sphere, blocking all the residual energy that was spilling over from the battle of the two masters. This way, the lake, surrounding forests, the Chambordians, and the demon beasts on the south side of the lake wouldn’t be harmed.

“Hahaha! This is thrilling!” Shaarawy laughed, “Now, we can battle without holding back!”

Seeing this, Fei was also no longer worried about the effect that this battle was going to have on the surrounding areas. Without holding back, energy fists bloomed like golden lotuses and battled Shaarawy’s purple heavenly flames.

Both preferred the close-range, violent combat style, and their battle was like an iron pot meeting a metal scrub.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Space shattered, the ground cracked, heavenly flames fell from the sky, and the soundwaves looked like dragons.

After they exchanged ten strikes, both laughed heartily and backed away for about ten meters
