Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1345 - Esvele Steps Up

Most of the disciples had perplexed expressions on their faces. However, the ones who were in the know had amused expressions as they knew that this Core Disciple Esvele had received numerous benefits from senior sister Shirley as she was the sole follower.

Davis had thought that she had offended most people with their actions, but looking at the Elders and Grand Elders maintaining an indifferent face except the top disciples who seemed to be provoked, especially the one who opened his mouth before, now had a hideous, offended expression from being challenged.

It ultimately conveyed the meaning that Esvele was looking down on him for her to challenge him for a simple insult!

”To challenge a top disciple at this battle exchange, I assume you want to be acknowledged as a top disciple?” Sect Master Lea Weiss spoke in a calm tone, seemingly not offended by this small interruption, ”In that case, you should have a top disciple or a grand elder recommend you, or else, you should forget about today and try your chances in taking the next top disciple trials.”

”I recommend Esvele Zelte to the status of a top disciple!~”

”Very well, this challenge is now official.” Without missing a beat, Sect Master Lea Weiss replied as if she knew that Shirley would bellow out at this moment.

Everyone could see that Top Disciple Shirley had one of her hands raised, seemingly supporting her follower to become a top disciple. The eyes of many female disciples instantly became envious as they turned their heads towards Esvele, but looking at her having those covetous goods that had the male disciplesʼ eyes wide, their eyes practically began to spit flames.

Davis couldnʼt help but chuckle at Shirley and Esvele.

These girls definitely did not tell him their plan, so he felt that it was an impromptu one, but looking at Esvele, he reevaluated her as he didnʼt expect that she would have that much courage to openly land on the battle stage and challenge a top disciple to a battle.

She was rather brave when compared to how timid she acted in front of him, running away from him the moment Shirley leaves his sight.

ʼOr maybe, she was just a bit scared that my powerful claws might accidentally reach her...ʼ

He casually mused as he looked at Top Disciple Arno Schatz, knowing that he was somehow related to Grand Elder Artur Schatz, who was in Grand Elder Valerianʼs camp. From this, he could infer that this top disciple was not friendly.

At this moment, Top Disciple Arno Schatz stood up from his seat while Davis and Shirley moved to their seats. As they moved to their destinations and arrived, an annoyed voice suddenly echoed on the first floor of the northern direction.

”Hey protector, donʼt you know that you are required to be seated amongst the elders and not among us?”

Davis looked at the source of the voice and saw a red-haired young man who was obviously also a top disciple. However, it was just a momentary glance as Davis didnʼt stop and seated himself comfortably beside Shirley.

The expressions of the top disciples abruptly became hideous as they saw him sitting beside Shirley a meter away. The seats were all a meter away from each other, but that was not the point.

They were mad because they saw him be seated between the two topmost beauties of the Burning Phoenix Ridge!

Davis looked to his side and saw another crimson-veiled beauty. Only her side profile, mainly her right eye, was visible, but the fragrance he could smell, no, sense from her was extremely attractive.

ʼTop Disciple Verona Stein...ʼ This name came to Davisʼs mind, making him think that she might be related to Grand Elder Newgate Stein.

She did not turn to look at him while her crimson eyes were serene, her gaze and focus on the battle stage where Esvele and Top Disciple Arno Schatz were present, who were seemingly looking at each other at the moment.

”Do you want me to show you the way to your place?”

The earlier person who spoke up could no longer take it and stood up.

”Thank you for your hospitality, Top Disciple Vito Rein...” Davis oddly smiled, ”However, Shirley was just attacked by the dead Top Disciple Lauren. Iʼm sure you heard what had happened, so I will remain here to protect Shirley even if it costs me my life.”

As he said these words, he cast a shady glance at Top Disciple Verona Stein, causing the top disciples to fiercely look at him, their hostile intent blazing like a volcano.

ʼF.u.c.k! This... bastard! Heʼs looking down on us...!ʼ Top Disciple Vito Rein possessed an angered expression when suddenly an Elder Soul Stage soul force appeared from the side and suppressed him, causing him to stop in his tracks.

”Elder brother...?”

Vito Rein looked to the side and saw his elder brother, who turned to look at him before removing the suppression.

”Calm down, little brother. Heʼs on Shirleyʼs side, and if she hired him with that much trust as it has been spoken, then it definitely means that she has told everything about us to him, so it is entirely possible that he is trying to merely provoke us into battle.”

A soul transmission fell on Top Disciple Vito Reinʼs mind, but he was reluctant.

”Still...”

”You are not a match, nor is your protector. If you want to be humiliated, go ahead. Elder brother can only help you this much, but remember, Shirley is mine!”

”I know... We agreed that Verona is mine...”

”Indeed...”

Vito Reinʼs lips curved as he sat back, but he still radiated a hostile intent against the so-called Elder Chu Feng, warning him to not look at Verona Stein.

Davis looked at these two brothersʼ talk using soul transmission. He had no idea what they were talking about, but he could see that the elder brother placated the younger brother from making a move. He felt that it was a pity as he wanted to extremely humiliate them like he caused Grand Elder Valerian to be humiliated.

After all, they were none other than Grand Elder Valerian Steinʼs two remaining sons.

Top Disciple Vito Rein, the second brother, and Top Disciple Azzuren Rein, the first brother. They were right before him, trying to plot against his woman so that they could obtain her, so the amount of killing intent he possessed against them could be imagined, and yet, he held it in as he merely smiled.

”Shirley, can I kill them...?”

Shirleyʼs expression froze before she sent him back a soul transmission.

”Of course... not! I mean, I want to, even more than you, but theyʼre so close right now. We would definitely be suspicious even if we could not be traced back. What are you thinking?”

Shirleyʼs heart abnormally pounded as she asked him, feeling part excitement and part anxiety. If he made a move on them right now, she would have to definitely escape, but that was more desirable to her than staying here to train.

Her maidenly feelings were begging for romance!

Killing enemies and escaping before hiding somewhere like a cave, slowly igniting themselves in a sensual atmosphere before they begin to make love in that narrow space!

How wonderful!

*Pop!~*

However, it was like a bubble had been popped as she came back to reality, realizing that he was in his soul body.

Shirleyʼs eyes looked unamused as she turned to look at Davis before they narrowed. Noticing that his attention was taken by something else, she looked towards the source and saw that Esvele was about to begin her battle.

======

Esvele remained floating, her slim, pretty feet embraced by high heels a few feet away from the surface of the pristine white battle stage. She was on the north side of the arena while her opponent went south. Even though the other party was a top disciple, she drew the most gazes from the crowd because of her big bosoms, making her conscious.

However, she ignored those unneeded feelings at this moment and glared at Top Disciple Arno Schatz, looking moderately offended, even vexed.

”You little, big wench. Youʼre not actually bad... Sigh, if only you would allow me to embrace you tonight, I promise that I would give you my entire wealth...”

Soul transmissions like these kept falling on her mind, making her almost fume in rage. But she remained composed, not giving in to her opponentʼs provocation as she waited for the referee to arrive.

Abruptly, she heaved a sigh, looking at a middle-aged man appearing on the outskirts of the battle arena, raising his hands to signal the battle. The moment the refereeʼs hands fell, she burst into action at the same time as the refereeʼs voice echoed.

”Let the battle begin...!”

”Ahahah! Thatʼs right! Come to papa!”

Top Disciple Arno Schatz evilly laughed and spread his hands as he echoed. Along with his extended hands, burning phoenix flames erupted from his back, forming the impressive sight of a long wingspan that took him to the skies a bit before he stopped, seemingly waiting for his love to arrive as he possessed a blatant grin on his face.

Some of the Elders and Grand Elders had an unsightly expression. To be this crass to a woman in public, their faces couldnʼt help but twist, but it wasnʼt like these youngstersʼ twisted nature would change anytime soon unless their own elders taught them a lesson.

Esvele seemed unperturbed as she made her way to Top Disciple Arno Schatz, still not seeming to have put up a defense. It was almost like she was readily preparing herself to fall into her opponentʼs embrace, making the spectators bewildered as they watched with curiosity when she suddenly jumped twenty meters into the air when she closed the distance, aligning with him as her figure projected the silhouette of a burning phoenix before it shot towards him with a blinding speed!

”You... Thatʼs...!”

Top Disciple Arno Schatz hurriedly propped up a crimson barrier made of burning phoenix flames before he used the defensive flaming wings he had conjured earlier to enclose it, creating an additional layer of barrier in an instant.

Esvele shot towards him as her entire body was clad in her burning phoenix flames. Her black hair turned red from the illumination of the flames as she crossed her hands into an ʼxʼ and waved, a low mutter escaping from her mouth.

”Burning... Phoenixʼs... Dual... Talon Blades!”

*Ripp!~*

Space did not tear apart, but the two barriers erected did as they shattered into feather strands before dissipating into the void! However, her slicing flames that seemed to become a burning blade did not disappear and headed towards Top Disciple Arno Schatz, who currently seemed stunned like a fool who could not believe his eyes.

He jerked and reacted an instant later, but the Burning Phoenixʼs Dual Talon Blades were already upon him so he became scared shitless and screamed.

”I surre-!”

*Bang!~*
