Chapter 1765: Chapter 1765: Battle Between Two Warriors

On the fourth floor of the Brilliant Moon Restaurant, a robust proving godly warrior coldly snorted as he reached into his pocket to take out a divine might coin.

The black divine might coin rolled downward and began falling from the fourth floor. Simultaneously, the proving godly warrior shouted, “I, Steve Sun, accept the challenge!”

With that, the divine might coin that was falling to the ground was suddenly stopped in mid-air, caught by a mysterious power.

It was at that moment that Steve jumped down from the fourth floor. He tapped the divine might coin with his toe, using it as a stepping stone. With his newfound momentum, he landed in the Brilliant Moon Restaurant's patio.

Whoosh!

The divine might coin that had been hovering motionless in the air circled on itself a little before flying up toward the sky, zooming past the tall buildings in the Six-Burden Divine City and finally landing in front of a slate. In front of the slate, the densely packed divine might coins formed a small mountain, and there were at least ten thousand divine might coins.

“That divine might coin... It has been taken away by the power of the Thousand Commandments Slate, right?” Zen asked Master Evil in his mind.

“Of course, once they've paid two divine might coins, the two warriors can fight each other, but still, they cannot make any move against others,” Master Evil said.

The delicacies that Zen had ordered were yet to be served, but at least now, there was an interesting show to watch.

Although Zen felt very confident that there wouldn't be much of a problem with his entering the Heavenly Han House, he still felt the need to know the abilities of the talents of the divine land.

“The Sun and Qian Clans have begun fighting each other once again...”

“They fight against each other almost every year. I wonder why these two clans never get bored!”

“You wouldn't understand. Victory or defeat between these two great clans is very important to them.”

Zen's ears perked up as he heard people chatting a little further off, and his face displayed a hint of curiosity. He stuck to the conversation at hand, and said, “Sounds to me like there's a grudge between the Sun and Qian Clans. Am I wrong?”

“The grudge between these two clans has probably existed for a very long time. In fact, I had already been aware of that when I was still in the Vast Sky Region seven divine eras ago,” Master Evil laughed.

As it turned out, the Vast Sky Region was controlled by the three great clans and each clan occupied two of the divine cities.

The divine city was very important to all the third-tier clans across the divine land. The vast majority of the divine might coins were obtained from these divine cities. The Sun, Qian, and Yang Clans each respectively owned two divine cities. More so, there was a central divine city in the Vast Sky Region, which was known as the Heavenly Canopy Divine City.

The Heavenly Canopy Divine City had a Hundred Commandments Slate. Regardless of size or area, this slate was much bigger than those of the other six divine cities, and the amount of divine might coins it could earn was only naturally much higher.

Back in the day, the Han Clan hadn't declared which clan owned the Heavenly Canopy Divine City, and thus, the Sun, Qian, and Yang Clans were constantly arguing over the issue. Most of the time, this constant quarreling led to a battle.

In the end, the Yang Clan couldn't hold on any longer and left the raging battle for Heavenly Canopy Divine City instead. By doing so, the Sun and Qian Clans' battle became even more intense.

Overall though, the two great clans had still alarmed the Han Clan, and the Han Clan ultimately settled this dispute. Furthermore, they were also obligated to create a new rule: Every year before the Heavenly Han House admitted disciples by examination, the Sun and Qian Clans should each send three warriors to battle one another for the ownership of the Heavenly Canopy Divine City.

With such a rule, it was only natural for the Sun and Qian Clans to understand the importance of nurturing their juniors, and thus poured many resources into their disciples. In the eyes of these two clans, entering the Heavenly Han House was only their secondary objective. Actually winning the control of the Heavenly Canopy Divine City was first and foremost.

And this explained why Zen would have the chance to watch such a scene play out today.

“In other words, the two chosen ones should be the most powerful proving godly warriors from the Qian and Sun Clans?” Zen asked.

“Two of the most powerful, yes,” replied Master Evil, with a chilling smile.

As Zen and Master Evil discussed, the battle in the patio before them had already begun.

Steve took a single step forward and headed straight for Holt. In his hand was a shining golden spear. This spear's shape was a bit strange, though. It was curved like a snake's body, and it looked like a triangular golden snake's head had been embedded into the spear head. ṛаℕỘ𝖇ËȘ

“Coiling Dragon Spear,” Steve shouted.

Although they were only sparring here in the Brilliant Moon Restaurant, it still remained a duel once the divine might coins were paid up. Generally speaking, it was normal for warriors to die in a duel, especially when one of the two didn't hold back.

That curved long spear stabbed outward like a snake launching out at its prey. His spear appeared to be aimed directly at Holt's head, but with a gentle twist of his wrist, it was actually aiming at his chest.

“Wow! What an excellent move!”

“The Sun Clan's Coiling Dragon Spear is famous for its strange shape which makes it extremely difficult to dodge its attack.”

“Look! With Steve's momentum, I'm afraid that the Sun Clan will remain in control of the Heavenly Canopy Divine City...”

Upon hearing such comments, Zen couldn't help but roll his eyes in annoyance.

Although he had just arrived at the divine land, he had already had the chance to see the strength of the divine land's martial artists in the Misty Mountain Village.

Thomson and Woolley were from the Misty Mountain Village, which was considered a remote mountain village, thus making it reasonable for them not to have practiced high quality martial skills.

However, in Zen's opinion, the warriors of the Sun Moon Village were also extremely weak. They might all have the cultivation of the Spirit Supreme Realm, but that was all they had. In terms of martial skills, they weren't even close to the level of those of the Soul Sea Realm in the Evolutionary Universe.

Now that Zen had arrived in the Six-Burden Divine City, the people he had to face were easily considered the elites of the third-class clans. However, Steve's move still left Zen feeling disappointed.

Although the Coiling Dragon Spear was exquisite, Zen thought it was much too gaudy. He knew he could easily break through the spear with his great speed. How could the spear be considered so 'excellent'? Zen wondered.

What Zen didn't know though, was that in the universe, martial skills actually progressed much further and even much faster than those in the divine land. This was because the divine citizens of the divine land would have the capacity of surpassing the Soul Sea Realm, the Spirit Supreme Realm and the Spirit Transformation Realm in a shorter period of time, thus becoming proving godly warriors at an early age.

And after becoming a proving godly warrior, one would immediately step into the Godly Way.

The cultivation period of those below the True God level was very short. It was therefore only normal that no one was willing to put much time and effort into studying these martial techniques. After all, once they became True Gods, they were bound to have higher-level cultivation methods to study.

Steve's spear pierced the air and sped toward Holt. Holt, on his behalf, was already prepared for the attack. He suddenly flipped his body into the air and dodged Steve's spear strike with an ingenious movement technique. At the same time, Holt rolled forward in an attempt to get closer to Steve.

The longer a weapon was, the stronger it was considered. That said though, the longer a weapon was, the more fearful it was of being too close to the target. The closer the target was in proximity, the harder it was for the weapon to unleash its full power.

There was no way Steve would allow this to happen.

He held the snake shaped golden spear in his hand tightly and shook it lightly. The head of the snake came to life at once and coiled around the golden spear, all while continuously thrusting toward Holt.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three consecutive thrusts all hit the ground.

The materials in the divine land were far more solid than those found in the universes. If they had been in a universe, then Steve's three thrusts would have been capable of destroying three massive mountains in their entirety. However, here in the divine land, the thrusts only created three small holes in the floor.

As Zen watched, he equally noticed that the floor actually had a healing function. As soon as the small holes appeared, they began to squirm inward on themselves and disappear.

Other people were used to seeing such details, but this was a first for Zen, and he still felt all this was very interesting. Over in the Evolutionary Universe, there was no 'floor' that could withstand the attacks of world lords. In fact, even if such a material existed there, no one would dare waste it like this and transform it into a floor.

Despite the fact that Holt had already gotten quite close to Steve, none of the three thrusts given just moments ago had actually hit Holt. In Holt's hands, a blue light flashed. An icy blue sharp sword appeared in the blink of an eye.

And with a twist of Holt's short sword, a blue ray of light unexpectedly shot outward. The sound of tearing cloth could be heard as the short sword came to a sudden halt right in front of Steve's neck.

Zen raised an eyebrow. “Now that wasn't a bad move!” he exclaimed.

Steve was short of breath and heaving as he stared at Holt.

If the icy blue short sword had continued moving upward only slightly, there was no doubt that Steve would have died right here, right now. Today would have been the last day of his life.

“You give in?” Holt asked in a calm voice.

Steve glared hatefully at him, his eyes shinning. In front of so many people, he had no desire of staying here any longer. He cupped his hands together, extending them toward the crowd and retreated out of the patio.

Holt bowed in victory and smiled at the crowd as he prepared to leave himself.

But before Holt could set foot outside the patio, a divine might coin was tossed down from upstairs. It bounced a few times on the ground, spun on itself and landed with a barely audible thud. From somewhere in the crowd, a faint voice sounded out, “Holt, how about I challenge you?”

As the voice faded further away, the divine might coin on the ground suddenly jumped again, as if controlled by magic, and hovered in the air. When the voice issued its challenge, the power of the Thousand Commandments Slate appeared anew, allowing the divine might coin to float in the air.

“I have something more important to do, so I think I'll skip my turn this time around.”

In all honesty though, Holt's only desire was to challenge Steve. He didn't want to accept any challenge from anyone else. Once he finished speaking, he turned around and left the patio at once.

Zen looked at the floating divine might coin indifferently.

Of course, he had no intentions of fighting. Even if he won, he would still lose a divine might coin just for a battle. Such a terrible deal meant absolutely nothing to him.

However, what Zen saw next made his eyes widen and brighten with excitement.

Divine might coins were suddenly raining down from the fourth floor!
