"What is its name? And what are its effects?" Davis asked with a faint amount of curiosity.
Evelynn avoided his gaze but then turned to look at him with a provocative gaze, "It’s a secret..."
Davis turned confused but he still asked, "At least, tell me what is its name..."
Evelynn blinked as she hesitated but then spoke, "True Vitality Pill."
Davis nodded his head and searched for any pill with this name in his memories but couldn’t find one.
In the entire 52 territories, there were too many pills that were capable of giving numerous effects. It wasn’t anything surprising that he couldn’t find it in his memories, especially when one considered that this pill is from an Immortal Inheritance.
He garnered that they were sealed from an ancient era, maybe maintained to this state from millennia ago, or maybe even millions of years ago.
As for the effects of the pill, so what if she chose to hide it now? He believed that she would eventually reveal it at a later date or a specific time.N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.
"Let’s go, we have kept them waiting too long!" Evelynn spoke and was about to dash off but was then held by his hands.
"I forgot to mention that Wilmark Ruth had died, you know, that youth who was at the Peak-Level Iron Stage..."
Evelynn’s eyes shot wide open in disbelief. How? He was way stronger than her but then she remembered how those youths talked about Wilmark participating in King Grade Trial.
She inadvertently spoke, "He really did enter the King Grade Trial..."
Davis also nodded his head as her words made sense.
The previous youths who had entered the trial in the first batch went in blind and had to make strategies to counter the opponents on the spot!
Even though they were stronger than Evelynn, they had still suffered from encountering the unknown which gave them a massive disadvantage at the start.
It was a miracle that Evelynn had passed the trial in the first place. Even with the simple strategies he told, he knew it was impossible to win that trial.
From this, he could see that it was with her own effort of making spontaneous actions and decisions during the battle that she managed to win.
Davis and Evelynn headed above and met Emperor Ruth and the others.
Everyone was flabbergasted even though they knew the results beforehand.
Their standing and opinion of Evelynn increased and they even started seeing her as someone worthy of them.
But once they instantly realized that she had already belonged to Prince Davis, they no longer dared to have any thoughts on her.
But still, the atmosphere was quite dim since the Ruth Empire just had witnessed the death of their strongest younger generation member.
"Apparently, he had chosen the King Grade Trial, otherwise he would in have no way died..." Emperor Ruth lamented as he looked at Wilmark’s dead body.
"Compared to me, who still had the power to challenge King Grade Trial at that time but backed out to challenge Sky Grade because I was scared for my own life... Wilmark is a full-fledged warrior..."
Davis nodded as he let Emperor Ruth pour out his emotions.
Suddenly, he saw Idric Ruth walk up to them with a determined glint in his eyes.
"Royal Father, I’m willing to give my spot to Prince Davis!"
"What?" All of those who were present in the hall were stunned, including Davis and Evelynn.
"Idric! What are you saying? Are you giving up? You and Yemiz have the most credibility to clear the Sky Grade Trial right now!" Emperor Ruth turned disappointed, thinking that this son of his was backing out because of fear.
But he sighed, thinking that it was understandable since the strongest of them had died from overestimation. However, he wasn’t opposed to having Davis have a go at the trial as well, because he knew it would enrich the relationship between the two Empires in the future, further establishing a concrete foundation for the Ruth Empire.
"Royal Father, I believe that I can obtain more benefits through this method..." Idric shook his head as he turned to Davis.
"Prince Davis, I believe that with your strength that you will be able to clear the King Grade Trial with ease... This isn’t just my opinion but my elder sister Isabella’s as well."
Davis knew this was the case since the Ruth Family had already tried to employ various methods to know the contents of the trial.
He wasn’t surprised and said as he tried to look for the source of the voice but couldn’t find, "I won’t give up..."
"Very well, let the Immortal Grade Trial begin..."
Instantly as the voice disappeared, ten armored figures appeared on all sides of the cliff, surrounding him as they closed in on him.
Each of them wielded weapons corresponding to their cultivation, Low-Level Earth Grade Weapons, meaning that their cultivations were at Low-Level Iron Stage.
A sword user quickly came in front of him but before it could even make a move, Davis’s arm jolted as a Scythe appeared in his hand.
The next second, the head of the sword user flew as it landed in the ground with a loud thud.
Davis shook his head as he thought that this was too easy.
An axe user came towards his back and swung heavily at his shoulders, intending to sever his arm.
Davis raised the poke and blocked it with his Scythe but his arm trembled a little, making him widen his eyes in shock as he thought, ’It’s true... They are probably utilizing Immortal Level Manual to release this much strength... just as Evelynn guessed...’
Even so, his arm jolted again deflecting the axe away as he swung it once again.
The axe armored figure’s head rolled away to the ground as it turned into a speck of light, disappearing into the void.
Davis noticed it before too but couldn’t tell where the speck of light was disappearing to. This made him extremely curious.
He looked at eight armored figures who surrounded him and came forward at the same time since Davis didn’t opt to move one bit from the place he arrived upon.
Seeing numerous weapons coming at him, he swung the Scythe in a full circle, destroying both their weapons while slicing their bodies into two sections.
Ten of the armored figures who had arrived just ten seconds ago disappeared like they never existed, but one would say they existed seeing that only their weapons were left on the ground.
’All of them were at Low-Level Iron Stage... I’m only 18... Evelynn is 28, but she still had her first level opponents at Peak-Level Bronze Stage... Hmm, this is confusing...’ Davis rubbed his chin as he thought, wondering how the strength of the opponents was distributed against the trialists.
’Well, since I took the Immortal Grade Trial as well as considering my age, I think my first level opponents are scaled to one stage higher rather than one level lower opponents that Evelynn had to battle...’
Davis suddenly had an epiphany, "Taking in the information provided by the Ruth Family as well as with what I’ve seen here... the opponents are undoubtedly decided by the age and the grade of the trial chosen by the trialists."
Davis did a quick calculation, he understood how the Earth Dragon distributed the cultivation level of the opponents depending on the trialist, although he couldn’t be even 70% sure of his speculation.
By the time, he arrived at an answer, the Earth Dragon announced the start of the second level.
And soon, fifty opponents of High-Level Iron Stage surrounded him as they all ran towards him in a frenzy.
Bolts of spears came zooming in on him thrown by numerous armored figures surrounding him.
Davis jumped away and disappeared from their view as he wreaked havoc by diving into their ranks.
Every move he made brought him near to an armored figure and every swing he made claimed either ahead or split their body into two.
It didn’t take long as only two minutes passed before there were no armored figures currently standing on the battle anymore.
"Let the third level begin..." The Earth Dragon’s voice appeared quite excited, even nervous.
A single figure strode out from the cliff and moved towards Davis.
Davis checked out the battle aura the opponent was giving off and sighed, ’Low-Level Silver Stage? Too easy...’
It wasn’t that Davis was too strong but his cultivation was too high for his current age.
For example, he figured that if he were to have the same age as Evelynn while still being at Peak-Level Silver Stage, he figured that he would face an opponent at the Fifth Stage of Body Tempering Cultivation; Gold Stage!
An opponent at the Gold Stage using Immortal Grade Manual to deal with him? Davis extremely doubted his chances of winning even with the advantage of possessing the artificial Tyrant Physique.
