"You're next."

Those words stunned the entire hall because they never expected that someone actually dared to challenge the Spirit God.

Like the Spirit God said, if they competed earnestly without offending him, they would get away even if they somehow won the competition.

Yet, Roy was brave enough to challenge the Spirit God. Fear struck their hearts when they saw the cold expression on Alex's face, wondering what would happen here. They just hoped that Alex wouldn't drag them into this hatred.

On the contrary, Alex's cold expression came from Roy, not because of his challenge, but the power inside him. No one would have the will to challenge him, especially without proper armies, so he thought this must be related to the power inside his body.

He then looked at his surroundings, finding four Rank 2 Gods watching the competition. The first one would be William. There were two elders with the same cultivation. However, he had no knowledge about the fourth one, so he wondered if he came with Roy.

'I still don't have enough proof, but I can safely assume that this guy is an enemy. I can even kill him without staining my reputation because of my words earlier. However, I will try to force him to use that power to confirm my assumption.' Alex thought and sent a thought transmission to William. 'Get ready to move at any moment's notice. I have a suspicion that there will be a Rank 2 God that will attack me in this competition.'

'I understand. I shall position myself, so I can react to anything that comes your way.' William nodded and changed his position.

He then turned to Firia and nodded his head, signaling that they would go last.

"You are just a fool." Alex shrugged and shook his head in disappointment. "Do you think you have the right to order me around?"

"Hmph. Just said if you have no confidence in beating me. To think the Spirit God doesn't have the courage to take up the challenge. It's pathetic."

The people in the hall were seriously screaming in their hearts. 'Just shut the f*ck up, you idiot. We don't want to die because of you.'

It was a pretty cheap challenge that a fool could only think of and there was no way Alex would buy it.

Alex simply smiled and said, "You don't even understand what I mean. I won't bother myself with you."

"Haha. You are just scared." Roy kept taunting him until an elder stood up and shouted. "If you continue this harassment, we're going to expel your qualification and disqualify you immediately. This is a competition, not a place for you to say anything. Please keep it professional."

When he saw that even the elder helped Alex, he snorted and returned to his own position.

Alex simply waited for all the people to get the test, resulting in sixty percent of them failing. Of course, not a single person actually reached Roy's high score, so he got even more contempt, waiting for Alex to go on the stage.

Finally, after the long wait, Alex entered the stage. He was the last person to reach here, so he soon became the focus of attention, not only as the last pair, but also the most important one.

Alex then brought Firia to the stage with a calm expression under everyone's stare.

After Firia was ready, he placed his hand on his back and channeled his element inside her body.

The energy gradually flowed to her hand as she released the flame stronger than her Sacrificial Fire. However, its shell was still a Sacrificial Flower, so it didn't suppress anyone.

He pointed his palm toward the ball and released her flame like any others.

However, this time, Alex had improved her type, purity, power, and temperature with his Godly Pure Fire. To add the control, he channeled his Space Element around the crystal, shaping it like a crystal.

The moment the fire entered, it looked like there was something covering it to match the crystal's shape. It completely baffled everyone, but they soon realized that Alex was the one controlling the fire or whatever that helped the fire to form something like that.

"This…"

"This is a Space Element?"

"Spirit God has a Space Element?"

"You just knew it? I have known about it since the big war between Eulja and the alliance, you know."

"Really? How come I don't have the news?"

"Who knows?"

"Wait? Doesn't this mean the Spirit God also has the Pure Fire since he channeled his element to Firia Merona's body?"

"That's right. It means that her Sacrificial Fire actually came from the Spirit God."

"Doesn't this mean the Spirit God has both Pure Fire and Space Elements at the same time? Not only that, I've heard that the Spirit God once came out with a nine-pointed star golden badge. Considering his Pure Fire, it's no wonder."

"But you forget something, the Spirit God is acting as her supporter in this competition. In other words, he also has an affinity in Array Mastery."

"Pure Fire and Space Element, Alchemist, and Array Master… The Spirit God is insane."

"How come you don't know about it yet? It's been revealed already after the war."

"Maybe it's due to your place closer to the battlefield. We don't have that information yet."

"Really?"

The people discussed Alex's power, astonished by his immense power. This was the first time they could observe Alex's power from this close without dying, so everything was worth it even if Alex won this tournament.

The entire hall turned into an uproar. Even the elders couldn't help but talk with each other, wondering what they should do after this.

However, it turned out that the main thing in this event had yet to come. The crystal projected a number that signified Alex and Firia's power.

500.

Although it reached the highest point recorded, the fire didn't stop there. Because Alex enclosed the space, the fire's temperature increased significantly to the point it had enough heat to melt the crystal.

The number slowly disappeared from the people's eyes, shocking everyone in the hall once again. They simply couldn't believe that Alex and Firia just burned the crystal. If Alex and Firia's position reversed, they believed that Alex would get more points even without Firia's help.

Yet, that man actually gave up that glory and let his wife become the main instead, showing to the world how much he loved Firia. He didn't mind even if he was just a supporting character. As long as people recognized his wife, it was enough.

Those who realized it couldn't help but fall silent, watching Alex with admiration. No wonder that Firia would follow him as his wife. If they could get such a caring husband, they would offer themselves without hesitation.

Meanwhile, someone was actually gritting his teeth after getting flustered by that power. With how he talked this whole time, he simply had become a joke of this tournament.

Even people began wondering whether Alex would kill him because of his disrespect earlier.

Roy, who couldn't accept this, shouted while raising his hand. "You got maximum points just because you hit it together. I was alone when I took this test. I haven't lost yet."

Alex only shook his head in disappointment. He looked at the ceiling and sighed. "You're truly a fool. You haven't realized anything yet… No matter if you were a human, a dragon, an elf, you would need other people. Even without the others, I won't be able to become the way I'm now.

"You should respect other people first if you want the others to respect you. Unfortunately, you can't even understand it and you're older than me. Such a shame."

Alex's voice struck deep inside their hearts as they could somehow understand what he was saying.

"Bullsh*t! Other people are just my weakness. I don't need them!" He shouted in denial.

"The moment you were born, you needed a mother to give birth to you. After that, you needed other people to take care of you until you started taking care of yourself. Then, without other people, you wouldn't have a home for you to live and cultivate.

"I can give more examples if you want, but I won't waste anyone's time. I just want to say that the people you think are just an ant that you can crush with your finger actually helps you in one way or another. Whether you realize it or not, it completely depends on you."

They began understanding why the Spirit God was loved by those under him. As a ruler, he respected no matter how low you were without demeaning the people above.

Even them couldn't help but have their heart touched by Alex's words. They fell silent for a while to think about it. Since the Spirit God, the most terrifying but respected God King in the past, had this kind of insight, why would they be embarrassed to start it themselves from now on?

Alex smiled and looked at Roy with a mocking smile. "That's all I want to say. You're truly foolish. A bad but silent person is actually better than you."

"Bullsh*t! They are not even worth the shit on my boots. And you think they are worthy of my respect."

Alex shrugged. "That's your view. I don't have the intention to force my ideal into yourself, so deal with it yourself."

As he uttered those words, he looked at the elder and clasped his hand, slightly lowering his head. "I apologize to the elders. I have melted your crystal. I will properly pay it back with Spirit Crystal."

The elders looked at each other before one of them stepped forward and shook his head. "Please don't lower your head, Spirit God. You don't need to worry about the crystal because we can simply make another one. Instead, I would like to give my thanks for your deep insight. This old man has realized the true essence of bonds."

"I understand. Then, since we all have finished, why don't we continue to the next round?" Alex smiled with confidence.

After thinking for a while, the elder announced. "The first round is Alexander Sirius's victory."

"Uoh!" All people cheered as they knew he deserved it.

Alex smiled and nodded, returning to Firia's side.

The elder then announced. "For the next stage, what we are going to test is speed. In other words, you're required to create a Rank 9 Pill as quickly as possible. There are only ten spots for the last round. Because all of you come from different worlds, we can only ask you to provide the ingredients yourself and refine them as quickly as possible.

"Of course, any technique is allowed, so you don't need to worry about it." The elder finished explaining about the next stage and returned to his position.

Alex and Firia exchanged looks, albeit they realized both of them had a different plan.

"Rank 9 Rejuvenation Pill?" Alex asked. "It's the easiest pill so far."

"No. I'm going to make a Mid Rank 9 Pill, Divine Bone Pill."

"Why?" Alex tilted his head in confusion.

She then sent a thought transmission to him, explaining what she planned to do. He was surprised to hear that it was related to what he had shown earlier.

After contemplating the process, he finally agreed to Firia's suggestion and trusted his judgment.

"I'm not going to lose again! After talking that big in front of everyone, I'm going to beat you and humiliate you." Roy pointed his finger while gritting his teeth.

Alex only frowned as he thought that Roy would be using the hidden fire. He also prepared for everything to happen because he couldn't afford someone to make a sneak attack.

'How should I rile this person up again? Well, Lin Xingzhi will be aiming at his home, so the moment that flame is out, I will know about the situation. I wonder if he has a parasite in his body…" Alex frowned his eyebrows.

The elder, on the other hand, ignored that remark and announced.

"Second Round starts!"
