Lightning Is the Only Way

Eventually, the four of them arrived at the meeting place for the Eternal Fire Sect.

Aris and Exar wouldn't be the only Cultivators from the Eternal Fire Sect that would take part in the tournament.

The four of them were the last ones to arrive, and they saw 15 other people hovering in the sky.

14 of them were level one Ancestral Gods, while the last one was a level six Ancestral God.

Obviously, these 14 people were the participants, while the more powerful person was a Vice-Sect Master that would accompany them.

The two groups looked at each other with interest.

Some of the members had already heard of Aris and Exar. After all, the powerful people in their Sect were not unknown to them.

They had already anticipated that some people from Manuel's faction would join, and they hadn't thought much of it.

However, when they felt Aris' and Exar's Battle-Strength, a deep shock went through their beings.

So powerful!

The members didn't even look at Gravis and Mortis as their full attention laid on Aris and Exar.

Yet, there was one person that didn't look at Aris and Exar.

The Vice-Sect Master looked at Gravis with furrowed brows.

Gravis looked at the Vice-Sect Master and grinned. "Long time no see!" he said.

This was the same Vice-Sect Master that had summoned the Sect Master when Gravis had requested permission to visit his friends.

The other members were shocked when they saw how casually Gravis greeted the Vice-Sect Master.

Yet, as soon as they actually noticed Gravis, they took a deep breath.

Who didn't know about Gravis?

Everyone had heard what Gravis had done in the headquarters of the Eternal Fire Sect.

He would also take part!?

Then, what was even the point of joining!?

"Will you also take part in the tournament?" the Vice-Sect Master asked Gravis.

"Nope," Gravis answered. "I'm only here as insurance and emotional support for these two."

The Vice-Sect Master looked at Gravis for a couple of seconds.
