Dawn approached. The sight of sunrise nowadays gave new hope to the people present in the New Era Battle Arena since they were assured that they were going to have young geniuses take the helm and protect them in the future.
Soon, the Eighth Stage Segment was going to begin, and they were anything but calm.
The overseers kept the Seventh Stage Segment's age limit to a hundred, but that was increased to five hundred for the Eighth Stage Segment.
Originally, it should've been two hundred to three hundred by all right for young geniuses, but it appears that it has been set like that to not discriminate against people who had little resources to increase their cultivation but are talented enough to do wonders. They didn't want to accidentally miss young experts from being screened properly as what they were after was talent at the end.
That's why every Law Sea Stage Expert below five hundred years old are welcome to prove that they have conjured an Abundant Sea and join the competition.
The competition was extremely simple: it was a five-way battle.
Five competitors would be pitted against each other in each battle, and the emerging winner will proceed to the next round.The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
If it were the small-sized Territories, the number of Law Sea Stage Experts below five hundred years could be counted on a scale, but when it comes to Law Sea Stage Experts with Abundant Sea, even a single hand was more than enough.
A Law Sea Stage Expert Cultivator could create five types of seas: The Scarce Sea, Expansive Sea, Abundant Sea, Vast Sea, and Immeasurable Sea.
With the Four Great Righteous Sects also participating, the number of talented Law Sea Stage Experts exponentially grew, and it was mused long ago that the competitors who were going to be entering for the Eighth Stage Segment were able to conjure Abundant Seas with ease and even had Vast Seas.
Rumors that the rumors back then were true were floating around, making people dumbfounded and excited.
They thought that it was already a blessing from the heavens that they had seen many youths with Perfect Domains appear in one place from all over their human race, but now, were they also going to see extraordinary Law Sea Stage Experts, possessing Abundant Seas and above?
However, no one talked about Immeasurable Seas. The moment the topic came up, they could only laugh and brush it off. After all, when have they seen anyone create an Immeasurable Sea or even heard of one?
It was practically non-existent.
But suddenly, they looked towards the Alstreim Family, feeling suspicious.
While Tanya was full of thoughts and recollections, Davis walked towards the room where they dined.
Although the little banquet had ended, his women were still socializing with each other on this rare occasion, although Nadia had entered his soul sea to stay cozy while Lea Weiss had already left because staying longer was dangerous for her reputation, especially when her relationship with him was still unannounced.
Davis had his own thoughts on Lea Weiss. Nevertheless, he pushed open the door and entered, looking at the mess his women were.
The long dining table was no longer there.
Some were chatting, some were running around as though playing tag without using their cultivation, some were reading, and some were sleeping. He saw Evelynn conversing with Isabella, Shirley, and Zestria at a table. Mo Mingzhi, Sophie, and Niera were playing tag while Tina and Dalila were reading alchemy records solemnly.
Tanya was stunned to see them before she saw that Natalya and Fiora were sleeping on the bed as they held hands. She turned to look at Davis, asking him with her eyes about exactly what was going on here as she was confused.
However, the moment the awake ones saw Davis, their eyes lit up before a teasing smile emerged on their faces.
"The fact that you're here with Tanya after all this time means that she has become yours in body and soul...!"
Sophie clenched her teeth.
"I told you so." Mingzhi giggled, "He's been in that room for hours. How can he not take her?"
"Not fair..."
Niera pouted, looking at him with a wronged gaze similar to Sophie. However, knowing that they had a promise that he would never forget, it assured them inside as the sliver of jealousy instantly faded.
"Hehem~"
Davis awkwardly coughed before he shamelessly wrapped his hand around Tanya's waist and pulled her closer. Even Tanya tightly held his sleeves and placed another hand on his chest, afraid that she would be ostracized and hurled curses as they already began shooting a glare.
Facing this many women, his loved women, she was overwhelmed with anxious feelings.
"My undying beauties, I have brought you all a lovely sister."
