Nevertheless…
“Yes.” With a smile on his face, Honorable Elder Mihangel Evans answered, “You can still participate in the other two segments even if you fail as we are aware that there are cultivators who are strong in body or soul cultivation but is weak in Essence Gathering Cultivation.”
Everyone couldn’t help but turn to look at the Soul Palace as they were a classic example of being strong in Soul Forging Cultivation but fairly weak in Essence Gathering Cultivation and weaker in Body Tempering Cultivation.
Evelynn nodded before she moved her lips again.
“Then do we need to seal our higher cultivation base?”
“No need.” Honorable Elder Mihangel Evans shook his head as he smiled, “Age is the sole factor deciding who can be matched with whom. If you’re below a hundred years old and are an immortal somehow, you can still take part in the Seventh Stage Young Expert Segment and the other two segments as you like. However, the cultivation you use should only be limited or lower to the segment. If you use a higher cultivation base, you would automatically be disqualified.”
Evelynn nodded before she looked behind.
“Tina?”
“I’m not interested in fighting…”
Tina Roxley wryly smiled as she felt that her current prowess couldn’t compare to the ones who entered.
“But if you need me to- “
“It’s not a problem.” Evelynn shook her head, “I’m not forcing you. There are a few spots left from our power to fill up that if it isn’t, I feel that there are so many whose going to get jealous.”
Tina Roxley couldn’t help but giggle at Evelynn’s words before the latter turned to look towards the other side.
“Natalya, are you sure that you don’t want to go?”
“Evelynn, I’d feel quite embarrassed to be battling with Law Dominion Stage Experts with my current strength even if they possess a Perfect Domain.”
Evelynn couldn’t help but smile at Natalya’s confidence before she turned to look at someone else.
“Tanya Frostblight, you can head down to participate.”
“…”
Tanya Frostblight blinked before she nodded. She took a deep breath before she flew down the stairs.
The Falling Snow Sect wasn’t recognized as a hegemon anymore, but the Falling Snow Sect Territory was still theirs as the Emperor of Death allowed so after he claimed the three western-most Territories for himself. Basically, the Falling Snow Sect was under the Emperor of Death’s protection although, they still haven’t returned to their Territory since the upcoming days can be dangerous due to the Calamity Light.
Evelynn recognized that there was only one spot left for their power. She thought of going by herself just to fill up the number but decided against it as she sensed a particular gaze fall on her. She simply smiled before her lips moved again.
“I’m not participating.”
“…”
Suddenly, it was as though a heavy wind of relief brewed in the battle arena, causing the people to look at each other as though they had escaped from a disaster.
“Still… wouldn’t the Earth Dragon Queen or the Emperor of Death still basically win all the segments with their overbearing prowess if they are allowed to participate?”
Someone in the crowd suddenly couldn’t help but ask when everyone saw it was a scrawny youth from the Twilight Physician Hall. He already looked scholarly and weak enough, but everyone, especially the youths, couldn’t help but ponder as they turned to look at the two arbitrators above.
The two arbitrators didn’t know what to say as they didn’t want to offend the Alstreim Family easily by saying something they shouldn’t.
“Yes, but rest assured.”
However, Evelynn spoke at this moment, causing them to turn to look at her again.
“The Earth Dragon Queen, my third sister, is pregnant with the Emperor of Death’s child while the Emperor of Death, our husband, has still not arrived as he is secluded in cultivation.”
“Ohh!!”
“Congratulations to the Emperor of Death and the Earth Dragon Queen!”
A chorus of well-wishes echoed as most people turned towards the west and wished the Alstreim Family, causing the people from the latter to become surprised. They didn’t expect such intensity of emotion from them, and even though it is possible that they’re mostly opportunists trying to earn good favor, it still felt good to be congratulated by millions at the same time.
“But what if the Emperor of Death finishes his seclusion and comes here?” That same youth couldn’t help but ask.
“Then blame your luck.” The Mandate Emperor suddenly spoke, causing everyone’s ears to perk up with attention, “Or, you can plead and convince the Emperor of Death not to participate. As the hosts who set the rules before this competition started, we can’t stop the Emperor of Death from participating, not to mention that he’s younger than you all, which brings the question that if you have thick enough skin to stop him from participating.”

The one who asked turned crimson from embarrassment, quickly filled with shame as he felt like the Mandate Emperor berated him while Fiora and the others giggled, looking prideful of their husband. He wasn’t even here, but the Mandate Emperor held him in high regard.
As for the Twilight Physician Hall and their Ancestor sitting amidst the hegemons, they couldn’t help but hide their faces in shame as they inwardly cursed their dumb top disciple. They were already disadvantaged in terms of battles, so couldn’t he have kept his mouth shut, lost, and come back without bringing shame!?
Inside a spacious yet veiled palanquin sat Isabella and Shirley as they kept giggling. However, Isabella turned to look at Shirley as she asked.
“Don’t you want to reveal your current status?”
“It’s fine.” Shirley’s smile turned wry, “Getting pregnant before marrying is a disgrace. Everyone would know that if I reveal myself.”
As she spoke, she patted her big tummy.
“Didn’t our husband tell you not to care about that?” Isabella narrowed her eyes, “I think it is important to let people know that you truly have his first child instead of just rumors.”
Shirley bit her lips before she shook her head.
“Still, it is- ah, I felt a kick…”
“Hehe~ Yours is certainly lively but mine…”
“Don’t worry. Yours will start kicking soon enough…”
“So, is it a boy or a girl?”
Isabella raised her brows before Shirley smirked as her cherry lips curved.
“Not telling… What about you?”
“Not telling either.”
“Hehehe~” They both laughed, keeping it a secret before Shirley suddenly spoke.
“Somehow, I miss him more at these times, wanting him to be with me when I laugh…”
“Me too, but don’t worry. He’ll be here as soon as he finishes absorbing the three drops of immortal blood essences.”
Isabella consoled, to which Shirley nodded.
As pregnant ladies, they bonded well after some time. When Davis was in the Spirit Lands with the others, they had many things to share, having heart-to-heart talks most of the time while Evelynn and Nadia took care of the house and defense.
Once the participating youths all made their way to the battle arena, the edge lit up as an enormous wave of transparent white light covered them. It was a Spatial Dream Extending Formation that drastically enlarges the said space within its field and also had the ability to cast an illusion terrain.
The youths in the battle arena were looking at the formation in awe before a voice echoed.
“Wait! You are not supposed to come here…”
Suddenly, the same youth from the Twilight Physician Hall looked at a white-robed woman who suddenly appeared from the northern part of the battle arena, which was mostly empty.
Feeling confident even after experiencing shame, he put his hands behind his back, straightened his chest, and spoke.
“Youths, no matter their age, they are not allowed for this segment if they are from the Large-Sized Territori- uh… maybe you can… I don’t know…”
His body abruptly froze as he recognized the beauty in front of him. Her purple eyes shocked him to the core while the indifference that radiated from her aura pierced his heart that his pupils almost turned into the shape of a heart.
“I’m here to represent the Alstreim Family.”
“Alstreim… what? Alstreim Family? You…”
He had a second look that saw her features instead of her raw beauty before he noticed her blonde hair and purple eyes as his eyes became wide.
“What the… you do indeed have the features of the Alstreim Family. However, who are you? Are you not the successor to the Heaven Mandate Temple?”
In fact, not only him but everyone looked at her with confusion.
The white-robed woman narrowed her eyes with hesitation before she spoke.
“I don’t care about being a successor to the Heaven Mandate Temple. I am Davis Alstreim’s younger sister, Clara Alstreim.”
“#$%^&*”
‘Davis Alstreim? Isn’t that the Emperor of Death!!!?’
He screamed internally, but it was not only him as millions of mouths opened agape while expressions of shock became prevalent.
