“Pretty good, not bad at all, not embarrassing for Ether Mountain!” Opal’s face showed a rare expression of contentment. Billy’s display of combat strength today indeed surprised her greatly, especially Billy’s level of spiritual power, which exceeded her expectations by a great margin.
“Thanks for your recognition, Opal!” Billy smiled again.
“Boss, how should we deal with those surrendering people from Northfortia? We seem to temporarily lack a reason to take action against them.” Azure Dragon walked over and spoke up. He knew that Billy’s goal this time was to leave no one behind.
“No need to bother with them!” Billy replied casually, “They won’t see the sun tomorrow!”
“Alright!” Azure Dragon raised an eyebrow. Fabian Mills’ figure involuntarily appeared in his mind. Obviously, Billy had made arrangements for this matter long ago.
“Billy, how should we handle that princess from Northfortia?” Ivy looked at Billy and asked.
“Lord Dragon, Northfortia has sent quite a few strong individuals to the extreme polar snowfield in recent days. If we kill their princess as well, I’m afraid they will…” Before Billy could respond, Milo Guzman spoke up.
“Let her live!” Billy nodded slightly. He had already made up his mind about this matter. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have let Bob spare the other party earlier. He still didn’t know much about the situation in the Polar Domain, feeling a bit wary. He would deal with everything once he arrived there.
“Got it!” Ivy nodded.
“Lord Dragon, are you alright?” At this moment, Princess Eligina of Aquilandia walked over. As she spoke, her admiration for Billy rose once again. In her eyes, not only did Billy possess extraordinary combat power, defeating four hundred heaven-defying enemies on his own, but he also did it so effortlessly. Moreover, she was well aware that today’s events were orchestrated by Billy on purpose, with the aim of eliminating personnel from the other nine countries. And now, it seemed that everything was going according to his plan. She couldn’t help but submit.
“Thank you for your concern, Princess Eligina. I’m fine.” Billy smiled faintly, “Are your people okay?”
“Yes! They don’t have any major problems.” Eligina nodded in response.
“That’s good! Leave the rest of the competition to Aquilandia. Try to improve your score as soon as possible.”
“Thank you once again, Lord Dragon, for your generosity!” Eligina’s eyes lit up, and she bowed respectfully.
At this point in the competition, the points for the top three positions were as follows:
Glavale had already secured first place without any suspense. Aquilandia and Northfortia were relatively close in points, with a difference of thirty to forty points between the two countries.
And since Northfortia had no more participants, as long as Aquilandia could earn another forty to fifty points, they would be able to secure second place.
“This is what you deserve, go on!” Billy waved his hand.
“Thank you once again, Lord Dragon!” Eligina bowed deeply before turning and leaving.
Ten minutes later, the competition resumed. Apart from the participants from Aquilandia, most of the remaining contestants from other countries were at the War God-Emperor realm, so Aquilandia easily secured second place.
Around four o’clock in the afternoon, the World Martial Arts Championship came to an end. Although the organizers were bleeding inside, they still distributed all the prizes for this competition. Looking at the pile of millennium spirit fruits and rare treasures that Glavale and Aquilandia had acquired, the organizers felt like crying. These generous prizes were specifically prepared for Northfortia and its allies. But now, they had become the wedding dress for others, and to make matters worse, it was for two countries with deep enmity against Northfortia. It was truly heartbreaking.
“Tsk tsk, these prizes are really not bad!” Stout’s eyes gleamed, almost drooling.
“Elder Shepherd, let’s distribute the items to everyone!” Billy looked at Ernest Shepherd and spoke.
Before they set off, Urban Woolery had specifically told him that if they won the championship, all the prizes given at the competition venue would be distributed by Billy.
“Lord Dragon, we haven’t contributed at all, so it’s not appropriate for us to take these prizes. You can keep them for yourselves!” a participant from Glavale said loudly.
“That won’t do!” Harleen responded, “We are a team, so everyone should have a share of the prizes!”
“Thank you, Lady Dragon. But these spirit fruits are obviously precious treasures, even if we receive them, it would be a waste.” Another man replied.
“Lord Dragon, it does seem a bit wasteful to distribute these millennium spirit fruits to everyone,” Ernest Shepherd said, looking at Billy. “Maybe we should keep these fruits for ourselves, Lord Dragon.”
“After we return to Glavale, I can take out a batch of century-old spirit fruits from the cabinet storeroom to give as prizes to everyone. What do you think?” he proposed.
“No need for that. There are plenty of spirit fruits in the SHADOW storeroom that can be distributed to everyone.” Billy replied after a brief moment of thought, relenting on his initial suggestion. In that way, they could maximize talent and make the most of resources.
Millennium spirit fruits were indeed wasted on martial artists below the Sovereign Realm; they simply could not digest them, not much different from century-old spirit fruits.
“Elder Shepherd, the millennium spirit fruits would be of great use to you and Lord Hum. Don’t refuse them.” Ivy chimed in, looking at Ernest and the others.
“We don’t need them,” Ernest smiled and declined.
“If you don’t accept, then we won’t either.” Harleen added.
Ernest Shepherd and Otis Hum were about to refuse again, but with Billy and the others insisting, they reluctantly accepted. Just as Ivy had mentioned, these spirit fruits would greatly aid their cultivation. It was highly likely that they would be able to advance to the next level.
Next, Harleen intended to give Opal a share of the spirit fruits as well. However, Opal straightforwardly declined, stating the simple reason that the millennium spirit fruits were of no use to her.
By late evening, around 5 o’clock, everyone from Glavale returned to their hotel, packed their belongings, and prepared to head back home. After about half an hour, they gathered in the lobby on the first floor. Just as they were getting ready to depart, dozens of incredibly formidable auras swept towards the hotel, all of them at the Sovereign Realm level or above. The entire area was enveloped in a horrifying aura of pressure.
“Boss, just as you suspected, they have indeed arrived!” Casey approached Billy and spoke in a low voice.
“We initially planned to let them go for now and deal with them in the Polar Domain. But since they seek death, let’s grant their wish!” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly. After saying that, he took out his phone and sent a message.
“Lord Dragon, who exactly are these people?” one of the Glavale participants asked Billy.
