"You think you would become the Greatest in the world by playing by the rules? This Cruel world will eat you up." Melia questioned with a smile on her face.

"And you think you would become one of the Greatest in the world by always playing only when you are 100% assured of your victory? This Cruel world will eat you up."

Nux questioned back.

Melia chuckled.

Nux smiled as well.

In the end, Melia took a deep breath,

She looked into Nux's eyes and then gave in.

"You said it yourself, Nux.

You are special.

And you are,

You can defeat 8 Star Beasts when you are just an Emperor Stage Cultivator.

This is not something I can even dream of doing.

Therefore, I am not going to limit my power to Emperor Stage to fight you just to make it fair, because I know, that I have no chance to win against you.

Just like that, I will not limit my power to Sage Stage either, because, as I said, you can already defeat 8 Star beasts.

As a leader, I cannot foolishly put myself in a position where I am at a disadvantage when I hold the higher ground. However, at the same time, I, as a recruiter, also need to show you who you are going to work with, so bullying you with my strength is not an option either.

So the best I can do here is I will limit my power to Early Great Sage Stage while the two of us duel.

The battle will last for 5 minutes.

If we both stand till the time runs out, I lose.

You defeat me before the time runs out, I lose.

The only way I win is for me to defeat you within 5 minutes.

The conditions will be the same.

The loser joins the winner,

So how about it?

Are you up for it?"

"I have to say, Lady Melia, you are quite shameless."

Nux glanced at Melia and spoke.

I am willing to go to achieve my goals," Melia replied with a small smile
