Chapter 1212

After the banquet, the list of Holy Kings who signed up for the sparring match was released.

When Grandma projected the list, everyone was a little surprised because Gu Ding's name was not on it, nor was the name of Kou De who came out of the King's Path.

Many people signed up for Gu Ding and Kou De because there were several Holy King powerhouses in the Gu Ding Pirate Crew. This was because there were several Holy King Level powerhouses in the Gu Ding Pirate Crew. As long as they defeated Gu Ding, it would be enough to prove that they were stronger than the other Holy Kings in the Gu Ding Pirate Crew. As for Kou De, he might have finished the King's Path. If they defeated him, they would also prove that they were stronger than the other Holy Kings in the Gu Ding Pirate Crew.

After seeing the list, even King Celestine could not help but ask, "Why didn't the captain of the Judgment Pirate Crew sign up?"

Kou De stood up and bowed to the King. "I just came out of the King's Path a few days ago and haven't had time to adjust my physical condition. Also, I haven't sorted out the Holy King's inheritance in my mind. So, I asked Sonya to take my place in this sparring match. "

The King nodded and turned his gaze to Gu Ding.

"Why didn't the captain of the Gu Ding Pirate Crew sign up?"

Gu Ding was stunned. He felt more and more that he had become Celestine's target. However, he still stood up and nodded at the King. "I've had some enlightenment recently and have been deducing it in my mind. If it wasn't for the King's Feast, I might have been in seclusion and wouldn't be able to fight."

"Then … the kid in your pirate crew with the guitar case has also broken through to Holy King, right? Don't you want to take this opportunity to spar?" The King glanced at Becca again.

"Becca just recently advanced and hasn't familiarized himself with the memories of the Holy King's inheritance. Moreover, he doesn't cultivate combat skills, so he doesn't want to embarrass himself," Gu Ding explained with a smile.

"Oh, I see. That's a pity. I was looking forward to seeing Gu Ding fight." The King's words made many people envious.

"Sir King, there might be another chance in the future. This time, forgive me for not being able to fight because my current enlightenment is related to whether I can break through Holy King and reach a higher realm. Although I don't know what that realm is, I can vaguely feel that there's a realm above Holy King. I want to try and see if I can break through. " Gu Ding's lie also hinted that he had not broken through to the level of a True Sage King. He deliberately said it for the King and Grandmother to hear.

"There's a realm above Saint Ruler?"

This was the first time most of the participants of the Path of the King had heard of it.

When the feudal lords of the major forces heard Gu Ding's words, they looked at Gu Ding with slight fear in their eyes.

Sovereign King and Granny both had a strange look in their eyes.

"Gu Ding, have you become stupid after cultivating so much? How can there be a realm above Holy King? The super monstrous geniuses who reached the level of Holy King all had the potential to cultivate to the level of Sovereign King. If there's an even stronger demon, does that mean there's someone even stronger than the King? "A Holy Lord level demon mocked Gu Ding.

"I'm not sure if there's a higher realm above Holy King, but are you sure there's no higher realm above King King?" Gu Ding retorted.

"An existence stronger than the Sovereign King? If there is, why haven't we heard of it before? "That person was still stubborn.

"Alright, stop arguing. Gu Ding is right. There's a higher realm above Holy King, and there's a stronger existence above King King. You youngsters might not know this, but we're not the only ones on the Main Plane. "The King finally spoke. His words shocked all the participants present.

In fact, only the higher-ups of the Seven-star Holy Lands knew about the existence of other Main Planes. Even the Six-star Holy Lands did not know about it, let alone the other smaller forces.

Among the younger generation of powerhouses, almost no one had the authority to come into contact with secrets of this level.

When the King revealed this, it naturally shocked everyone, including the people of Gu Ding's pirate crew.

Gu Ding did not expect that the words he had said to mislead the King would lead to such a secret.

"Alright, let's call it a day for today's banquet. I look forward to seeing everyone's performance tomorrow. "The King did not intend to say anything more. Instead, he got up and walked out of the main hall.

Grandmother said to everyone, "Everyone, disperse. We'll gather again tomorrow morning. Other than the participants who signed up, everyone else is free to come. "

Everyone quickly left the reception hall of the King's Palace and returned to their respective hotels.

…

In a study in the King's Palace, Celestine sat behind a desk while Grandmother stood in front of it. The two of them were having a conversation.

"Your Majesty, can you rule out the possibility that Gu Ding has broken through to True Sage King just based on what he said?" Grandmother was still skeptical about this.

"I don't think he has broken through. If he had, he wouldn't have said what he said today." Celestine nodded. "There are a few other conditions that confirm this."

"First, he's not the last person to come out of the King's Path. Moreover, he came out more than half a month earlier than Kou De. To a certain extent, it's unlikely that he's completed the King's Path. Second, no participant of the King's Path can remember what happened on the King's Path. Only those who have reached the end of the King's Path can remember the inheritance they received. However, on the day he came out of the King's Path, you asked him if he remembered anything. He said he did not remember anything. If there really is an inheritance in his mind, it's unlikely that he's hiding it because we're the ones who invited him into the King's Path. He's not wary of us. Third, if he has really become a True Sage King, it's impossible that he hasn't reached the end of the King's Path. "

"So, we're only targeting Kou De now?" Grandmother asked.

"Kou De was the last person to come out of the King's Path. Moreover, the time he stayed on the King's Path was longer than all the previous participants. I suspect that it's very likely that he has completed the King's Path. Regardless of whether he has become a True Sage King or not, at least he has a True Sage King inheritance. "Celestine nodded.

"What about Gu Ding?" Grandmother hesitated for a moment before asking again.

"According to Gu Ding himself, he should have a certain chance of breaking through, although the chance is very small. Make him a target for observation. If he really breaks through, he'll be the best vessel for me. "Celestine was slightly looking forward to it.

"According to Gu Ding's description, the chances of him breaking through should be very high, right?" Grandmother could not help but ask.

"It'd be good if the chances of a successful breakthrough were 1%." Celestine shook his head and smiled.

"Such a low probability?! But didn't he already feel the True Sage King's realm? "Grandmother was a little puzzled.

"Feeling it is one thing, whether he can break through or not is another." Celestine still shook his head. "It's not that easy to break through to the True Sage King's realm. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been only two people who had broken through to the True Sage Monarch Realm since the Immemorial Age until now. "

"Alright, you don't have to ask so many questions. Spend the next few days perfecting the plan to capture Kou De. Don't give yourself away."

"Yes!" Grandmother slowly walked out of the study.
