Chapter 1058 Challenge

"So… are you going to see your new friend or will you go to compete as well?" asked Klea in a teasing tone as soon as she read the message.

Her eyes slowly narrowed when there was no immediate response from the other side, but fortunately, Emery only needed a second to think of an answer and say it with determination.

"I will go to compete."

Since returning to Hyperion planet, Emery had been waiting for the time he would be able to challenge the top 10 privileged acolytes. And now that he had just made another breakthrough in his cultivation, coupled with the recent body tempering, he had no reason not to go.

Moreover, it was as if both his body and mind wanted to fight, to release the pent-up frustration they had accumulated throughout the past few days.

With that thought in mind, Emery accessed his privilege bracelet to see the privilege ranking data.

[Emery Ambrose]

[Privileged acolyte member ID: 83192008]

[Privilege Ranking - Rank 9]

[Test Ranking - Rank 5]

With his current ranking, Emery was able to forcefully challenge four names whose ranking was below his test rank. The only thing he needed to do was choose a name, and because tomorrow would be the day of the monthly arena, the ones who were chosen were forced to come otherwise they would lose their rank to him.

[Rank 5 - Shatter Cross]

[Rank 6 - Anzi Tamasi]

[Rank 7 - Jai Strider]

[Rank 8 - Tyler Haze]

"Which one do you want to challenge?"

Hearing Klea's question, Emery looked at the list of four names and fell into contemplation. Then, when he thought about the strength of Zetto the Titan bloodline who was ranked 11th and Zach who was ranked 4th, he couldn't help but say his inner feelings.

"I want to fight all of them. One by one."

A gasping sound rang out from the side. "That's my man…" Klea said "Unfortunately, you can't do that."

Klea reminded Emery that not only could he send out one challenge at a time, these acolytes were the top 10 acolytes of the privileged class, meaning they were comparable if not stronger than himself. Challenging them in one go not only would put him at a great disadvantage but would also bring him unnecessary harm.

To put it simply, what Emery had just said was pure recklessness.

Therefore, Emery's best way to deal with this matter was to send the challenge to the rank 8 Tyler Haze and fight him tomorrow in the arena. As for the others, they should be challenged at another time.

Hearing Klea's reasonable proposal, Emery nodded in agreement and once again accessed his bracelet, sending the challenge as discussed.

[You have challenged Rank 8 - Tyler Haze]

Unexpectedly, just a minute after Emery sent his challenge, the answer from the other side arrived.

[Tyler Haze - Rank 8 has accepted your challenge]

"That's it. All settled," said Emery in a casual manner.

Klea however asked with a smile "So what are you going to do now?"

Emery was slightly confused by her question and asked in return. "What's wrong? Do you need something?"

Klea chuckled and said, "No silly. What I mean is you!. Tomorrow you are going to fight one of the geniuses of the Magus Alliance. Aren't you going to prepare something to ensure your victory?"

Emery scratched his cheek as he fell into thought. "Well… there's not much I can do in one day. Or.. should I rest instead?"

Hearing such an answer, Klea turned irritated saying, "Huh! This is why you couldn't beat that dragon Zach, silly! Give me an hour... Meanwhile, You can go to rest if you want!"

After saying those words, Klea took out an apple-sized dark cube from her spatial ring; it looked similar to the one provided in the academy residence. Ignoring Emery who was puzzled by her fiery reply, she was busy accessing some information.

An hour later, Emery was once again acknowledged by Klea, who proceeded to show him some visuals. Although he was still confused by her actions, Emery obediently saw what was shown to him.

"This is the person you will be fighting tomorrow!" Klea said, to which Emery finally came to a realization.

[Tyler Haze]

[Battle power: 185]

[Spirit force: 1000]

[Wind Spirit: 5 Pillar]

[Ice Spirit: 4 Pillar]

[Remark: Dual dagger Master, specialized in body enhancer spell]

There were also a few notes on the person's historical battle.

Seeing the data, Emery was surprised and asked, "How did you get this?"

When Klea saw the look of utter astonishment on her boyfriend's face, she slightly puffed out her chest and explained. "I compiled this from many sources such as news, forums, gossip and other similar things. With so many references used for cross-checking, this data should be fairly accurate."

She added that with more time, she would even be able to figure out the exact type of spells his opponent had and use as well as identify their weaknesses.

Emery was inwardly bedazzled by how brilliant the girl in front of him was. After all, for those who came from the lower world, most of these things were something that was not easy to follow.

Unaware of Emery's thoughts about her, Klea continued.

"Now that you know he's someone who wields dual daggers, I think you should spend the next few hours training with the combat puppets."

She then gave Emery the schedule for the day that she had just prepared for him, from weapons training to lessons on the wind and ice elements she had an affinity for. All in order to prepare Emery for tomorrow's fight.

Emery couldn't help but think that this was the real way to handle a duel, something that he had never really done before. Therefore, he felt very grateful to Klea who was clearly trying hard to help him in this matter.

Seeing Emery's facial expression, Klea smiled and said, "Don't worry, Emery. With me by your side, you don't even have to worry about that dragon boy anymore. I will make sure you become the number one acolyte!"

Emery was certainly happy hearing her say the word with such confidence. However, a piece of memory surfaced in Emery's mind.

Those same words were said by that person and made him think about her.

"What's the matter, Emery?" the girl asked, noticing his changing expression.

"Hmm, nothing." Shaking his head, he said, "Let's start the training."

Emery quickly emptied his mind and focused his attention on the girl in front of him, following her training schedule to the tee.

The next day, he came to the arena prepared.
