Chapter 1533: Niera's Domain

"!!!"

The Dragon Families' powerhouses, who were about to take a step forward and shamelessly invite Mu Bing, were utterly dumbfounded at this moment.

How under the heavens does the Alstreim Family have two youths who could create a Perfect Domain?

Since their Dragon Families specialized in Body Tempering Cultivation, even they would have difficulties in producing a genius of that caliber, so how could the Alstreim Family?

On top of that, both of them were women. The only common point that they could see between the two women was that they sat together with that hateful Davis Alstreim, seemingly in love with him, although they weren't sure about this woman whose name was yet to be known.

Their doubt also echoed with the audience with the voice of her identity being asked into question before a voice echoed.

"Name yourself first."

Mu Bing coldly spoke, different from the time she addressed Sophie.

It could be seen that she was a bit annoyed by Niera's blatant disrespect.

Niera blinked before she finally recalled.

It had been a long time since she had to introduce herself to a crowd. This type of audience didn't intimidate her. Instead, it was quite common that in their cave back in the sealed space, experts would gather around to conduct battles amongst the younger generation like this to keep the atmosphere from falling into despair.

Watching the young ones grow stronger did give them hope, but they were still shrouded in a fog of bleakness that limited their happiness until Davis arrived... her man arrived.

Niera took a breath before her lips moved behind her crimson veil.

"Niera Alstreim."

Her words ignited a spark in the audience again, creating a fresh rush of discussions that focused on unveiling her identity. They had never heard of such a woman in the Alstreim Family. At least, they had heard of Sophie Alstreim, but Niera Alstreim?

They could only wonder, 'Niera who?'

"Ancestor Dian Alstreim. I take it that you have been hiding her from the public's eyes?"

Sect Master Bing Luli's voice echoed out with uncertainty.

"You could say that..."

Ancestor Dian Alstreim chuckled before he panned his gaze.

"Everyone. Although you may feel suspicion towards her true identity, the fact is that Niera Alstreim belongs to my Alstreim Family."

"True." Ancestor Krane Parazen nodded, "I almost mistook her for Nora Alstreim and can only hope that it isn't an illusion artifact at the High-Level Emperor Grade that can fool even our eyes and senses. She doesn't have the Illusory Yantra King Bell that was said to have caused that traitorous Elizar Yantra to have become desperate to target you, right?"

"Ahaha! Of course not!!"

Ancestor Dian Alstreim laughed as he threw his head.

While most looked at Niera Alstreim with suspicion, some others also believed that she was from the Alstreim Family. However, a certain few individuals looked at Nora Alstreim and sneered at her, believing that they were sisters and were secretly trained by the Alstreim Family until this occasion revealed her.

However, they still couldn't understand why she would be seated with Davis Alstreim, who belonged to the mysterious Dragon Queen's power. It didn't seem like she belonged to her and wasn't even introduced before from the intelligence they had gathered.

"Don't worry. You'll soon breakthrough into the Law Dominion Stage..."

Dalila Leehan encouraged Nora Alstreim, but she who received the sneers sneered herself.

There was nothing more proud than seeing her little sister become stronger than her. If it was before, she might've been competitive or even jealous, but after gaining a family that she had believed to have died, Niera was nothing more than the amalgamation of the love her parents shared when she wasn't there with them to assure them that they can get out of the sealed space.

Fortunately, Davis brought them back. And she believed that her decision to let go of her anger towards the abuse she received from Claire when they were none the wiser about Yantra's plans brought about this miracle. Otherwise, she couldn't have imagined Davis bringing them out.

"Don't worry. I'm not blind."

At this moment, Niera's voice echoed out.

"I am aware that you have exhausted maybe half of your essence energy to defend against Sophie's Perfect Domain. Therefore, I will only attack three times. If you can defend against all three and not reach out of bounds, then I will admit defeat and accept that your Ice Laws are the best I've ever seen."

Mu Bing's eyes narrowed.

Was she looking down on her?

However, looking at the size of Niera's domain and her words, she perceived that she must be fairly confident in her powers.

Davis looked at his arrogant Niera, slightly having his mouth parted.

In truth, he never saw Niera battling against other opponents, but recalling those youths who were her peers and afraid of her, he also remembered that she was a proud woman.

She was only shy when she was with him because he fulfilled her fantasy of coming from the outside to save her before inevitably falling in love with him after that trial he gave her family.

Moreover, despite knowing that the trial was something he forced upon them, she still couldn't forsake her love, making him inevitably fall for her self-sacrifice.

"Very well."

At this moment, Mu Bing's voice echoed, "Your challenge... I accept it."

"Yesss!!!"

The crowd's eyes lit up before they began cheering again.

To witness the birth of three Perfect Domains in their lifetime made them feel like that their horizons had been widened even if their cultivation was higher. At the same time, they couldn't help but feel inferior because they had only created lower-tier domains like the Flawed Domain and the Mediocre Domain.

Quite a few of them who were considered geniuses had conjured an Impeccable Domain in their young days, but then, in front of these three youngsters from the same Nine Western Territories, they felt like they had no face left and could only feel a bit of envy which they could only suppress.

Mu Bing seemed to be conversing with her Sect Master Bing Luli while Niera Alstreim waited patiently, still having her domain active for the people to see. It was as if she had done a service, instantly making the people like her and her arrogance.

"I've kept you waiting."

Mu Bing turned around and moved towards her position in the battle platform as her voice echoed.

"It's fine." Niera shook her head, "I'll say it again. Three attacks. If you can withstand my three attacks, then it's my loss."

Mu Bing couldn't help but lightly giggle.

"Then I take it that I have to only defend?"

"It's your wish. I'll take an offensive stance, as I said, but if you want me to go into a defensive stance, then you need to display something much stronger than your Ice Smiting Aurora."

"...!"

Everyone became flabbergasted at Niera's clear provocation.

Was she implying that the defense that completely froze Sophie's mighty and imposing hundred-meter-long broadsword inscribed with numerous inscriptions was not enough to defend against her? That defensive technique unique to the ice domain that defended against a fire attack of low-level eighth stage prowess?

At this point, some people began to think that she was unquestionably bragging and overly arrogant.

Their domains were clearly of the same size, so how could she overwhelm Top Disciple Mu Bing?

"Bring it on."

*Bzzz!~*

Mu Bing's voice echoed as an icy-blue domain extended from her and covered a part of Niera's domain. It was a repeat of the previous situation where neither domain failed to hold against the other.

"Although my domain may be a defensive-type domain, its offensive prowess is also nothing to laugh at. However, I'm curious. I'm willing to let you take the first shot, so we'll see if you could back up the words that left from your own mouth."

"You're going to regret uttering that..."

Niera smiled with confidence before the both of them turned their heads to look at the referee.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's brows twitched.

'You two already have your domains out! Why are you waiting for my signal to start the battle!?'

Despite complaining in his head, he steadied himself and raised his hand.

"Let the battle begin!"

His hand dropped before a melodious voice echoed.

"Ice Smiting Aurora~"

Resplendent blue light shone in Mu Bing's domain as the front became instantly covered with that aurora. The mere sight of it was otherworldly and garnered many praises from the crowd.

However, Niera pointed her hand and finger up, appearing to condense a ball of flame on the tip of her finger. It quickly began to grow, inflating to a massive supernova that radiated immense heat.

The moment the aura of the flames became relevant, everyone could feel that it belonged to the Alstreim Family's Energy Cultivation Manual as it had a similar aura to Sophie Alstreim's flames.

However, everyone shuddered as they looked at Niera.

She dared to close her eyes at this moment!? Was she not afraid that Mu Bing would attack!?

But contrary to their thoughts, Niera believed that Mu Bing would not attack.

Instead, she descended deep into her thoughts as she recalled back to the time when she was stranded in the sealed space, looking at the never-ending night sky that haunted even the day.

There wasn't a day that passed by without her wishing to see the sun and feel its warm light she had heard so much about from other people until she one day finally got to see the sun when she got out of that sealed space. However, the moment the light of the sun fell on her face, her eyes reflecting the wonder of its light, boundless inspiration began to appear in her mind.

At that moment, she felt as if she was holding the sun.

Niera's eyes shot wide open at this moment!

The ball of flames on top of her finger seemed to have already condensed into a tiny spherical wisp that had a radius of no more than an inch or two. However, it radiated an overbearing light that made the Peak-Level Eighth Stage Experts narrow their eyes. It was as if the whole Grand Wedding Hall was enshrouded in light that would scorch into flames if released!

The people held their breaths as they watched Niera swing her hand at Mu Bing!

"Burning Sun...!~"

A solemn voice echoed out from her as the tiny spherical wisp of flame shot towards Mu Bing with an unreasonable speed!
