Chapter 1026 Opinions
The martial world was taken by storm as they watched God Anak clash with an unknown masked man.
Many were completely shocked by this first release. Some unknown man really dared to antagonize one of the eleven True Gods?
At this point, many couldn’t believe it. This was because these individuals had paid for the basic services and didn’t have access to the videos those who paid 10 profound stones did. But, after reading the article, the couldn’t hold back their curiosity any longer.
The number of premium subscriptions shot upward, each person more eager to see the videos that the last. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the Sapientia profit margin increased by ten times that very day.
When they laid eyes on the video, many couldn’t believe what they were watching. This was the very first clash Dyon had had with Anak, and from what they could tell, it was a dispute over a woman.
This led to many speculations. Was the masked man really just overly sensitive, thinking that Chrysanthemum was taking a swipe at his wife? Or did he want to take Madeleine as a wife as well?
Many fell in line with this second line of thinking. If think man dared to antagonize God Anak, why wouldn’t he dare to antagonize God Sacharro? Because of this, the SNN coined the term ‘The Masked Wife Stealer’, labelling Dyon as a man who feared nothing, even when it came to stealing the wives of Gods.
The opinions were mixed. Some believed that Dyon was in over his head because he was a complete unknown. 𝘪𝑎.𝒸𝘰
To this, many pointed out that he survived the first interaction, so maybe not. But, that was when others said that he only survived because Anak didn’t want to miss his entry into the valley.
Some of the more astute individuals analyzed the video further. What they found shocked them.
From what they could see, the members of the Emperor God Clan behind Anak were actually trembling, some of them were even bleeding from their fists. At this point, they deduced one thing: this masked man’s Presence had to be otherworldly!
Just when people were beginning to recognize the same thing, the SNN released the second half of the video and sent the martial world into another uproar!
When the realized that Dyon’s mask was actually capable of easily blocking Anak’s Presence, and the fact it was actually a peak level heavenly tribulation type treasure, they couldn’t help but begin speculating on his identity. What level of clan could afford to give such a treasure to their young genius?!
The mix of opinions ran rampant. Some sided with Dyon, while others were a bit more cynical. It took more than a single clash for the legend of the eleven True Gods to slip from their minds.
However, the second day was yet another blow to their egos.
News of Dyon claiming to be a 6th stage Comet Level Expert shook the world. Under normal circumstances, no one would believe his mere word. But, the problem was that those words were spoken while he was answering a question of the 25th White Mother! Those who understood just what the White Mother title represented knew that lying to her about something involving array alchemy was absolutely impossible.
Those who witnessed this particular video couldn’t help but tremble in shock. The age cap of the saint floor was 1000 years old. To reach such a level within that time was absolutely mind boggling!
For context, it wasn’t too surprising for a genius to step into the 1st stage Comet level within 200 years or so. Under normal circumstances, taking 100 years to reach the Celestials soul stage was impressive beyond belief. This was why Alidor, despite being an innate aurora genius, was still a step away from breaking into the Saint soul stage. He was simply too young.
Then, another 100 or so years would be needed to begin to align your soul strength with the knowledge of your secondary profession. There was simply too much an expert on that level needed to know for it to be done in a short time.
This said, the record for a youth stepping into the 1st stage of the comet level was 79 years old. Many hoped that Clara would become the first to challenge this record in a long time since she was only 32 yet already at the peak grandmaster level. In fact, rumor had it that her soul had already stepped into the celestial ranks.
However, simply breaking into the comet level and being a step away from the moon level were two completely different concepts. Even taking a single step forward should take decades, if not centuries. For Dyon to already be at the 6th comet level… It simply didn’t make any sense!
The most world-shaking part of this was that a 6th comet level expert could already forge weapons, create pills and form formations capable of effecting, slowing down and helping dao formation level experts. This was how outstanding they were, yet here was one less than 1000 years old?! It was no wonder he was so arrogant!
It was only now that everyone remembered that a few months ago, the masked man had told Alexandria that he’d help her break into the celestial level. At that time, it was met with a mixture of jealousy and doubt, but now, there was no questioning it.
Almost as if to give the public a break from Dyon news, the news of the next day focused on Clara, but was just as shocking.
Everyone was under the impression that soul cultivators were weak in battle, but Clara actually beat Chrysanthemum single-handedly!
When her fight was analyzed, those with sharp eyes came to the astute conclusion that Clara could actually form her will attacks away from her body. Such a realization shook the martial world, sending it into yet another uproar.
Clara’s origins were completely mysterious. Even the Sapientia had no idea who she was despite collaborating with her. Some even began to speculate that she came from the outside world just like the Star Clan, the current number one quadrant, had.
Many young men and their clans began to prepare to court Clara. To have such a woman marry into their families, wouldn’t that be the greatest thing imaginable? But, that was when they got reports that she was already married, which made them hesitate. 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝑚
That said, this hesitation didn’t last long. This was due to speculation that Clara made her husband up in order to get rid of annoying young men who tried to court her every day in the Sapientia Quadrant. In the end, they could only tell their best young men to not annoy this young woman and slowly try to win her heart. If they could learn the secret behind attacking with wills from a distance, their clans could all abruptly rise!
That aside, there was also the matter of Ri claiming the Legacy of the Water Mist Sect’s ancestor. In response, the Water Mist Sect weren’t so shameless as to demand recompense. After all, it was their disciples that were too useless to claim it for themselves, they didn’t want to become the laughing stock of the martial world. Instead, they actually extended an invitation to Ri to be directly admitted as one of their core disciples!
Even the top three quadrants became interested at this point, some of their young princes boldly declaring that they would be the ones to win Clara’s heart – some of them even included God level characters, however, the True Gods remained silent. Luckily, a woman with power the level of Clara’s wasn’t one they could disrespect easily. None of them dared to cross a line especially since Clara had the silent protection of the Sapientia Family.
However, it was this shift that made the top three quadrants change their policy toward the Sapientia. The information they had access to had never been this important before. So, although they didn’t allow the Sapientia to relocate any branch clans here, they did allow construction of communication towers that would allow the Internet to reach them. They had no choice but to keep tabs on the information in case anything else of interest occurred.
Almost as though it was meant to happen, the top three quadrants were quickly rewarded for their decision.
The next day, the second half of Dyon’s video was released. It seemed that after he stated he was a 6th stage comet level expert, a battle had erupted, seemingly instigated by the kitsune clan.
Even while facing 5 Emperor level experts and more than a dozen King level expert, the masked man was arrogant enough to tell the 25th White Mother to continue with the resonance, stating that it wouldn’t be fun unless he gave them a handicap.
Then, under the shocked eyes of everyone in the martial world, he proceeded to embarrass the best geniuses many top ranked quadrants had to offer even while under a severe disadvantage.
However, no video was more shock than the one released on the fifth day.
While the video of the fourth day sent the kitsune into a complete rage… The video of the fifth day brought down the ire of the Emperor Giant Clan… Never had they been so embarrassed…
The image of God Anak kneeling before a masked man, radiating outward with golden wings didn’t cause an uproar… In fact, it was almost as though a dreary silence had overtaken the Martial World. A silence louder than any commotions
