That was his current attribute after integrating with Zowen. His attribute forcefully broke through to Ancient Rank. Tang Shaoyang looked down toward his total mana.
Mana: 5,080,000
He had a little over five million mana, an additional 2,100,000 mana after integration, and that was an insane number for sure. He then cast [Attribute Shift] and shifted his Magic Power to Agility.
Magic Power: Ancient (70-Star) -> Magic Power: Ancient (30-Star)
Epic (60-Star) was the same as Ancient (40-Star). He did not lose that much Magic Power as he managed to max out Agility. As the flame dismissed, Tang Shaoyang was twenty meters away from Allan and Alton.
"No! At least let me beat Allan! He has to pay the price for killing Crystal. Not only has he wiped out the Ambrose Family and caught her in the past, yet he dares to kill her in front of me! This is unforgivable!" Rosalie was angered by the fact that Allan directly killed Crystal without any hesitation.
"I command you to stay back. It's not you who should punish them for what they have done to Crystal. It's me! Silly of me to believe you two!" Tang Shaoyang shook his head as he remained expressionless. Before Rosalie could say anything, he forcefully summoned her back to the Spiritual World.
"I don't know if there's someone who has reached Legend Rank aside from the two Guardians of the Lionax Kingdom in the Ortis Continent. My name is Alton, ex-commander of the Fotia Legion!" Alton bowed his head slightly.
"There's no need for a formal introduction. This is not a duel but a war!" After saying that, Tang Shaoyang rushed toward Alton, and he did not activate a movement skill, a pure speed from his attribute.
Alton expected the opposing party to be fast, but not this fast. He barely saw the man's movement and reacted in time. He raised his shield and blocked the incoming battle-ax that came from above him. 'Did he focus on Agility?'
Bang!
Alton's eyes widened in shock. If Tang Shaoyang's speed surprised him, Tang Shaoyang's pure strength shocked him. He knew the man did not use any skill but just pure strength. However, he was still getting pushed back by Tang Shaoyang.
"You are not the only one with a bloodline, kid!" At this moment, Allan ambushed Tang Shaoyang from the back, and Allan also used his bloodline transformation. Light green fur covered his body, holding a spear with both his hands, and he aimed the spear toward the back of Tang Shaoyang's head.
Of course, Tang Shaoyang saw the man coming from behind him. As the spear was a few centimeters away from his head, Tang Shaoyang activated his movement skill, [Mirage Stride]. Under normal circumstances, he would split into eight mirages. But this time, he split into twenty-one mirages.
The spear hit the empty air, and Allan yelled at Alton. "I told you, this dude is good with his illusion skill. Throw away your hesitation and fight, Alton! Do you want to throw away your hard work for years!?"
Allan knew that Alton was still hesitating after Queen Rosalie's illusion and their best friend's illusion. "You can't get away with a cheap illusion!"
Allan summoned five tornadoes around him and swept most of the mirage. "Huh!?" He then noticed the remaining five mirages kept running away from him, and he could tell that all five mirages were fake.
"Above you, Allan!" Alton shouted at his friend. Allan immediately turned around and crossed his spear horizontally to block the incoming attack.
Tang Shaoyang activated his [Thousand Blast] and purposely clashed his battle-ax against the spear. He was testing the water, wanting to know the two knights' actual rank, and if both of them were Legend Rank, he needed to use his [True Dragon] to fight them. However, if they were Primordial Rank, he thought [Grand Dragon Transformation] should be enough to face them.
There was a reason for him saving the [True Dragon]. He was wary of the other two tribes, The Elven and the Moonlight Tribe. After his battle against the Green Sky Serpent and the Dark Tribe, these two tribes guessed his plan and came for him. Again, he was not that confident to face all of them at once. A precaution was needed in this scenario.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Allan received the [Thousand Blast] with his spear. He was getting pushed back by the [Thousand Blast], and his hand was trembling as the blast bombarded him. At this moment, Alton came to help his friend. He stood in front of his friend and used [Pyrolis Shield] to block the blast.
"I am sorry, my friend. You are right, I can't hesitate, or else my hard work for years will be in vain." Alton calmly received the [Thousand Blast]. This time, he stood still without getting pushed back. The same as Allan, he also used his bloodline transformation.
Tang Shaoyang watched Alton receive his [Thousand Blast] without budging. From this, he could tell that Alton was Legend Rank, just like the Guardian Beast. He recalled the old man's early words.
"I don't know if there's someone who has reached Legend Rank aside from the two Guardians of the Lionax Kingdom in the Ortis Continent." That was what the old man said, and he should realize that the old man was Legend Rank as well based on that.
—Be careful. Alton's bloodline is a top-grade, Divine Blazing Ox. It might be weaker than your Dragon Bloodline, but he has reached Legend Rank while you are still Epic Rank.
Rosalie warned Tang Shaoyang not to underestimate Alton.
As the dust settled down from the blast, Tang Shaoyang saw the two old men standing side by side, unscathed. Alton's dark eyes met with Tang Shaoyang's gaze.
"Before we proceed to our battle, are you willing to listen to my proposal, Young Man?" Alton calmly looked at the man who was hovering above him.
"I don't mind hearing your last wish." Tang Shaoyang replied flatly.
"Thank you for willing to hear this, old man." Alton bowed his head. "This is a war between The Beast Coven and The Tyrant. However, I have a proposal to minimize the casualties for both sides. Let's change this into an honorable duel where the winner takes everything. If you win against me, then The Beast Coven will follow you, and if you lose, you and your force must join the Beast Coven? What do you think?"
