"Hahaha!"

Edgar Alstreim laughed like a madman as he kept punching his way through the Streaming Crimson Flamewind Technique! Sometimes, the crimson flames engulfed him, but since the gloves he wore were a Mid-Level King Grade Armament that came in a set, and his body itself possessed the average defense of a Low-Level King Grade Material, he remained unharmed.

*Boom!~*

He ripped his way through the Streaming Crimson Flamewind Technique, many times even kicking it aside!

"That's the usage of an earth-attributed Body Tempering Cultivation Manual?" Logan asked in curiosity.

"Didn't I say that the Alstreim Family used a Peak-Level King Grade Body Tempering Cultivation Manual to go hand in hand with the fire-attributed High-Level Emperor Grade Cultivation Manual?" Claire asked in doubt.

"I asked because it's different, or should I say weak from the one we train in..." Logan frowned with a smile.

Claire rolled her eyes. He dared to compare the intensity of an authentic Immortal Grade Cultivation Manual with a mere King Grade Cultivation Manual. She didn't mind him and instead looked at her father sweep his way through the crimson flames with his fists.

Her eyes were glazed with deep emotions.

'How many years has it been since father acted like that?' She had never seen, but she could imagine his prideful self from the tales she heard as a child from other people.

*Boom!~*

Crimson flames were blown apart by the mighty force!

However, no matter how Edgar Alstreim suppressed his way through since Weiss Alstreim kept retreating. He wasn't able to cover the distance as it remained the same with both of them moving.

Knowing that it is counterproductive after having his fun, Edgar Alstreim promptly stopped his attacks and retreated to a distance.

Weiss Alstreim also took back his attack instead of attacking on without a break. His meridian channels were a bit strained because of the continuous surge of essence energy, so he took this chance to recover instead. However, one should know that he only spent two percent of his essence energy in this single minute.

The Streaming Crimson Flamewind Technique he used was a Low-Level King Grade Battle Technique! If an average Law Manifestation Stage were to use this technique, it was inevitable that they would end up spending more than ten to thirty percent of their essence energy!

But as Law Dominion Stage Cultivators, they rather possessed a large amount of essence energy in their dantians, so if they used their essence energy frugally while using no techniques, it was possible for them to keep battling for weeks!

Nevertheless, Weiss Alstreim's expression became sore.

He didn't expect Edgar Alstreim's Body Tempering Cultivation to be on par with him, able to match his prowess of being able to battle against Mid-Level Law Dominion Stage Cultivator!

"Hahaha! I missed this feeling of being able to battle for a long time, thanks to you! If I don't return the favor ten times by making you die a gruesome death, I'm not an Alstreim!" Edgar Alstreim seemed to be in an elated mood.

"When I was at the Law Manifestation Stage, I'm sure you know that I manifested a Grand Law Manifestation and was able to cross three levels to battle at the Sixth Stage! If I was able to reach the Law Dominion Stage, I am sure that I would be able to cross two levels to battle!"

"But, to think that your Essence Gathering Cultivation's prowess only amounts to this... capable of reaching Mid-Level Law Dominion Stage. As expected, you are still a trash even after bring silver spoon-fed all those resources."

"Edgar Alstreim... Provoking me is useless..." Weiss Alstreim echoed, but his lips seem to be slightly quivering.

Edgar Alstreim sneered before he spoke again.

"There was a rumor going around that after you became the Young Master, you tried to absorb a Peak-Level King Grade Flame Essence cockily but was instead counterattacked by it!?"

"If it weren't for your cherished grandmother helping you, perhaps you wouldn't have survived that!" Edgar Alstreim cheerfully mocked as he laughed. "Hahaha!"

"Ahh!!~ Bastard, Edgar!!! I shouldn't have left you alive!"

...Edgar Alstreim grinned as he saw Weiss Alstreim rush at him like the anger incarnate of flames. His scream of rage was music to his ears.

However, looking at him rush towards in a frenzy, Edgar Alstreim still remained cautious.

*Rumble!~*

He stepped forwards and launched himself at Weiss Alstreim.

*Whoosh!~*

His figure flew through as it grazed past the air while Weiss Alstreim launched an attack.

"Regal Flame Gust Technique!"

Abrupt fumes of crimson flames emerged from Weiss Alstreim's body before it transformed into scorching flames that roared through the air with intensity!

The flaming gust was different than the last one. The force was comparable to a hurricane rather than a strong breeze of wind! After all, this was a Peak-Level King Grade Battle Technique!

Edgar Alstreim, who remained right above the platform, placed a step again and launched himself upwards!

*Rumble!~*

He took his hand back and clenched his fists! The surrounding heaven and earth energy trembled from the very might of the fist! Combined with the might of the Mid-Level King Grade gloves he wore, the intensity of the technique that he was about to unleash increased by three folds!

*Rumble!~*

Edgar Alstreim launched his fist against the Regal Flame Gust Technique, and the surrounding air in front of the punch's way was ripped apart even before the yellowish-brown martial energy could reach!

*Boom!~*

The gust of crimson flames and the extraordinary might of the two powers clashed! A gust of crimson flames quickly engulfed the entire space that they were in while the earthen attack was flying straight towards Weiss Alstreim! However, Weiss Alstreim quickly withdrew the gust of crimson flames that spread and attacked it from the sides!

The two attacks clashed again before the flames exploded from the brunt of the earthen attack!

"Whoa!!!" The crowd became heated!

They quickly moved to the nearby flying betting hall, intent on gambling on the person they think would win or lose!

Edgar Alstreim and Weiss Alstreim simultaneously retreated.

Davis, who was hovering in the air, possessed a contemplative expression on his face as he watched the battle come to a short pause, but his concentration was on something else. His eyes that flashed with an ominous crimson glint returned back to an ocean sapphire pearl.

'Alright, when exactly did Weiss Alstreim's lifespan change?'

He had seen Weiss Alstreim's lifespan in the Grand Welcoming Hall. The lifespan thread made him realize that Weiss Alstreim would live for more than five thousand years. It was unknown what he died too, but that didn't matter anymore as it now changed to almost nil!

Weiss Alstreim didn't even have a day to live anymore!

That meant Edgar Alstreim was mostly going to win this battle! Or he fails to kill Weiss Alstreim, letting him deal the killing blow!

Davis sneakily used his Death God Eyes to check every single youth in the Purple Guest Palace when they arrived. However, Weiss Alstreim's fate had now changed somehow, sealing his fate.

He felt that it was too bad because if he were near Weiss Alstreim all the time, he would've had the chance to find out the underlying reason for the change in his lifespan being shortened as his death god eyes would've reacted.

But since he wasn't near Weiss Alstreim when the change took place, he missed the opportunity to know the underlying reason concretely.
