Chapter 585: Chapter 584: Fated Calamity

Most of her time was spent in improving herself, in diligently cultivating, striving to make herself stronger, all to protect her mother, and to one day no longer be the subject of ridicule. The surrounding cold gazes and mockery were her motivation to move forward; she wanted to show everyone with her own capabilities that humans were not weak, that humans too could be powerful.At this moment, she stood at the pinnacle of the young generation in Demon Monster Land, and it seemed as if all the repression and frustration accumulated over the years were being completely released. Tears uncontrollably streamed down her fair cheeks. Were it not for the warm large hand holding hers, she feared she might break down and weep aloud.

Tang San just stood quietly by her side, smiling as he watched her. To him, neither the cheers nor the glory mattered. All he wanted was for her to be well and happy; that was his greatest joy.

In his eyes, there was only her, only that one figure. In his heart, she had long been filling every corner, both in his previous life and in this one.

He could feel that her palms were somewhat cold, but her emotions were being released, her brows seemed to have lifted, and although she was crying, there was a stubborn pride in her eyes, her red lips pressed tightly together, her delicate body trembling slightly.

"Congratulations to you both," a gentle voice drew their attention.

Despite the waves of cheers from the audience, this soft voice could not be concealed.

Tang San bowed slightly, paying respects to the formidable Great Demon Emperor in front of him, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox looked at him tranquilly, "You have a tribulation in your fate, do you know that?"

Tang San was slightly startled but felt a chill in his heart.

The Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox said, "You are strange. The moment I first saw you, I felt it. Your fate is odd, one of the rare instances that even I can't see clearly. However, I can sense that the calamity in your fate is approaching. All I can see ends here. Tribulation precedes fortune, and if you overcome the tribulation, fortune awaits. It seems like a path leading straight to heaven. It all depends on whether you can overcome this tribulation."

Pretty Girl had also come to her senses by now and couldn't help but ask eagerly, "What kind of tribulation is it?"

The Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox smiled and said, "I only control fate, but I do not spy on the Heavenly Mechanism. That should be your role! However, your fate is also strange, he is like your twin flame; when you are by his side, your fate will soar."

"It's rare for someone to obtain a double crown, consider this as an extra reward I give to you both."

With that, his gaze returned to Tang San, "I hope to see you again in the not-too-distant future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Tang San said, nodding slightly as he paid his respects once more.

Without a doubt, the words of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox had stirred up a great commotion in his heart. This Dominator of Fate, an existence capable of controlling destiny, would never speak without purpose.

What Tang San couldn't determine was whether the tribulation mentioned by the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox was something he himself would bring upon them, or if it was something that already existed in his fate.

Though Tang San himself possessed the ability of the Heavenly Fox Eye, he was completely unaware of it. But now, he was fairly certain that the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox had no intention of manipulating his fate.

The words of this Dominator of Fate had left Pretty Girl visibly pale; the legends surrounding this figure were too numerous, and even though his words were vague, no one would disbelieve them.

What kind of catastrophe was about to befall Asura? All the excitement of just having won the championship was like a bucket of ice water had been poured over it. Pretty Girl grasped Tang San's hand, clearly tightening her hold a few notches.

Tang San gave her a slight smile, "Nothing will happen. For you, I will make sure to stay alive."

Pretty Girl took a deep breath, "After the award ceremony, we'll leave immediately, immediately have my father take us back. Once we return to Jiali City, we should be safe."

"Okay," Tang San softly agreed, a faint glimmer of light flickering in his eyes.

He had actually already guessed what kind of catastrophe the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox was talking about. He was too conspicuous; as a human, he truly stood out too much.

Despite his efforts to remain low-key. But being in the top four in the individual competition and champion of the pairs competition, no matter how low-profile, still caught people's attention. Moreover, unlike Pretty Girl, Pretty Girl was after all a representative of the Peacock Demon Clan, but what about him? His registered identity was as a human, yes, a human.

A human achieving such success, was that something Ancestral Court accepted? A human getting this far could not help but evoke envy in others.

He originally hadn't planned on competing, even if he did, he just wanted to see how strong the young generation of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan were. However, Pretty Girl's arrival changed his mind; he decided to accompany her, to protect her, to escort her throughout the competition.

Therefore, he deliberately avoided thinking about the consequences that a good ranking would bring. Now that the competition was over, the consequences were finally about to come.

Let it come, if it's going to come, then let it come. Now he was no longer without the power to resist.

Guided by the staff, Tang San and Pretty Girl arrived at one side of the competition stage to wait. Next, it was time for the players who had participated in the individual and pairs competitions and finished in the top sixteen to take the stage. The awards ceremony was about to begin.

The presider of the awards was still the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox.

This Dominator of Fate once again arrived at the center of the competition stage, gently pressing his hands together, and instantly, the audience fell silent.

"This Ancestral Court Elite Competition concludes here. As with every year, this event is a grand occasion for Ancestral Court and the whole Demon Monster Land. We have witnessed the younger generation's brilliance gradually unfold, seen many stars of the future. Especially those of you currently on the competition stage. I hope that in the near future, you will all continue to climb to higher peaks."

"In this competition, in addition to the usual individual competition, we also purposively set up a pairs competition, with the intention of encouraging our clans to set aside their prejudices and cooperate with each other. We are delighted to see that there have been many cross-clan pairs, and they have demonstrated that the combined effect is greater than the sum of the parts. Over these years, Ancestral Court has been conducting research aimed at integrating cultivation among different clans. When individual strength reaches its limit, perhaps collaborating with a complementary partner might lead to even higher peaks. In the future, Ancestral Court Elite Competitions will gradually introduce pairs and even group competitions. I hope all clans will make continuous progress."

His calm voice filled the entire Ancestral Court Square, invisibly stirring the audience's blood to boil, even making them feel uncontrollably emotional.

"The next Ancestral Court Elite Competition will continue to reform, starting with the addition of group competitions. The specific number of participants is yet to be determined, and will be decided after the Ancestral Court Council's research. However, what has been decided is that the next Ancestral Court Elite Competition will no longer set a Bloodline Level threshold. Any level of bloodline will be able to participate. The selection will start from the major cities. Each main city will decide a certain number of places, which will then come to Ancestral Court for the final competition. So, no matter what your bloodline is, as long as you have powerful strength and the means to defeat your opponents, you can register. The future Ancestral Court Elite Competitions will be renamed Demon Monster Land Elite Tournaments. Becoming an opportunity for the rise of all young people from our two races."

Upon these words, the audience erupted; it was known that the Ancestral Court Elite Competition had always been dominated by high-ranking races, with only bloodlines of second level and above qualifying to register. Even those who considered themselves exceptionally talented had no chance if their bloodline level was insufficient. This opening up was no doubt an excellent opportunity for lower-ranked bloodline races, at least giving them a chance to showcase themselves.

How could this not make the lower-ranking races ecstatic? The honor of the Ancestral Court Elite Competition was far too important for the younger generation.
