Lightning Is the Only Way

"No, thank you, Senior," Gravis said evenly.

The Immortal Kings were shocked. An Immortal Emperor had invited Gravis personally, but he declined! What gall!

"Why not?" the Immortal Emperor asked.

"Let me counter that question with a question of my own," Gravis said with a polite smile. "Would I get better benefits if I joined the Nine Elements Sect after winning this tournament?"

The Immortal Kings felt that Gravis was arrogant. Winning? He wished! He had only won because his enemy had taken him lightly!

Meanwhile, the Immortal Emperor smiled for the first time. "Oh, I see. Yes, you would," he said. Gravis had only asked a question, but the Immortal Emperor immediately assigned an intent to Gravis' question.

In the Immortal Emperor's mind, Gravis wanted to win the tournament to directly join the Nine Elements Sect with a higher standing. He sure was smart!

Because of that, the Immortal Emperor stopped questioning Gravis and let the tournament continue.

Obviously, Gravis wouldn't join the Nine Elements Sect.

The other Immortal Kings still ignored Gravis while the fights continued. Most of the fights were intense and took several minutes. One had to remember that Immortal Kings moved with insane speeds. A fight that took a couple of minutes was already incredibly long for Immortal Kings.

Fortunately, thanks to the Immortal Emperor's impatient mindset, the fights were constantly happening without any downtime. Because of that, in only a single day, over 500 fights had been finished.

Now, there were only around 600 Immortal Kings left.

The second round of fighting commenced immediately, and Gravis was the first again.

However, this fight was very similar to the first one. Apparently, this Immortal King had also taken Gravis lightly. He had sworn that he wouldn't make the same mistake, but as soon as he entered the arena, he just couldn't help himself.

He just felt so confident and sure of himself. It was like he was in full control.

Of course, this was the effect of Gravis' Law of Control and Safety. The Immortal Emperor wouldn't be able to notice these Laws, and Gravis wanted to appear as low-key as possible. He decided that he would win his first couple of fights like this, making it appear like the enemy had underestimated him.

Instead of seeing Gravis' power, the other Immortal Kings only grew angrier. This guy had such insane luck! Two Immortal Kings in a row had taken him lightly!

They felt that it was unfair that Gravis was still in the tournament. They had to fight with everything they got, while Gravis got two easy victories!

This was so unfair!

It took around half a day for the second round to end, and the third one began.

Gravis was the first one again, but just like the previous two times, the Immortal King just couldn't take him seriously. He just couldn't help underestimating Gravis.

Because of that, this fight also ended very quickly.

The Immortal Kings were seething in anger. What was this dogshit luck!? Did he suck Heaven's dick or something!?

Nearly all the Immortal Kings felt bloodlust as they saw Gravis return to them. They would humiliate him thoroughly to vent their anger! This weakling didn't deserve to stand amongst them!
