It was as if it was blocked by something. 'How is this possible?' Nek is a Pre-Saint, and David is just a Ruler Ranker. The power gap between the two sides was miles apart. Even 1% of Nek's strength was not something David could bear, let alone 10%.
If word got out about Pre-Saint failing to destroy Ruler Rank's skull with 10% of his strength, Nek would definitely make many people laugh out loud. Nek will also be Star Kingdom's biggest joke and laughingstock.
Despite this, Nek uses 10% of his strength but David is still intact. The impossible has happened. As Nek let out that voice, the other women in the room also opened their eyes. What they saw was not the bloody scene they had imagined. David and Nek remained in the same position as when they had just closed their eyes.
'What the hell is going on? Has Nek changed his mind about David?'
Once this idea got into their minds, it was immediately rejected. Judging from Nek's look just now, it was completely impossible for him to forgive David.
'Then why didn't he kill David?'
Everyone has this question in their mind. Nek couldn't kill David with 10% of his power. Nek froze for a moment before he regained consciousness. All eyes were on him and David. It made Nek feel a little embarrassed. As a dignified Saint, he failed to kill David the ant after yelling 'dead'.
To him, this was simply a great shame and humiliation. Anger appeared again in his mind. Nek increased his strength instantly.
Bumm!
A sudden surge of energy threw Celeste and Nova into the air again. The middle-aged attendant and the seven elves in the distance were also affected. They were not even in the Eternal Realm. Hence, it only took a slight shockwave from a Saint to kill them completely.
They had no choice when they faced a death crisis. Hence, they could only show an expression of horror as they watched the impending doom. Fortunately, Nova was currently landing in front of them.
It's too late for Nova to think about anything. Nova took out a bead from his chest and crushed it. Then, a shield appeared, covering the middle-aged attendant and the seven elves and blocking the shock wave of Nek Saint Realm energy. The crisis of their deaths was temporarily averted.
“Huff...” Nova breathed a long sigh.
He finally saved the seven fairies. If the seven elves died, the Iridescent Sect would be hot news. After a moment of relief, Nova continued to stare at Nek.
"Dead!" Nek roaring.
At the same time, he increased his strength from 10% to 30%. How strong is that?
Under Nek's energy, the collapsed room instantly broke apart. Several powerful defensive formations were also destroyed.
Bum Bum Bum!
The building where the entire VIP hall was located disappeared in the blink of an eye. All that was left was countless rubble and shards. The scene was a mess. Nova and the middle-aged attendant, as well as the seven fairies, remained on the shield. Thankfully they did not suffer any injuries. It seemed that the bead Nova had put out was also a rare treasure.
Celeste rushed out of the rubble in a panic. His condition was much worse than Nova, who was on the shield. Her clothes were in tatters, revealing the delicate skin underneath. There was also blood on the corner of his mouth.
After Celeste came out, she immediately looked towards Nek and David before having a chance to examine herself. He knew that David must be dead by now, but he couldn't help but expect a miracle. When he looked at the two of them, there was a shocked expression in his eyes for a moment. David is not dead. Both are in their original positions.
'Huh?'
Celeste was not the only one who showed a surprised expression. The nova in the shield was also beaming. Indeed, he knew David was not a simple man because Elder Red valued him dearly. He was just a rookie Ruler Ranker, yet he faced the Pre-Saint head-on twice.
This was no longer something Eternal could accomplish. Even Nova, a Peak Sovereign Ranker, would die if he faced Nek, a Pre-Saint. Whatever tactics David used, what he created was simply an unprecedented miracle. The others on the shield all showed expressions of disbelief.
Nek, a powerful Pre-Saint, fails to kill David twice. Sure enough, the people who could enter the VIP Hall of the Iridescent Sect were all incredible. David is able to fight Nek, the Pre-Saint, at a young age, so his future is definitely limitless!
The seven fairies looked at David. Although Nek gripped the top of his head and he could not move, David's calm expression was very respectful in the hearts of the seven fairies. They even felt that David would not die today. He would become the first Rank Ruler to survive a Saint attack.
Nek was shocked at this moment as well. He uses 30% of his strength as a novice Pre-Saint, but he is unable to crush David's head and kill him. This is totally unacceptable.
'When did Ruler Ranker become so difficult to kill?
Has the world changed?
Or am I too weak?’
Nek hesitated.
Then he looked around. The aftermath of his own attack flattened the room of the Iridescent Sect, so it proved that there was no problem with his strength.
The VIP Hall of the Iridescent Sect was no ordinary building. Not only was it built using the strongest wood, but it also had some powerful defensive formations etched into it. However, David who was in the middle of the attack was not injured.
Nek's eyes were fixed on David, and he saw David's calm expression. There was a cold light in his eyes.
‘This is the problem! This is totally unacceptable.'
The VIP hall of the Iridescent Sect was flattened to the ground and became a ruin. The loud noise also alarmed the members of the Iridescent Sect. Countless figures flew towards the scene quickly. Many space cracks appeared as well, with senior members of the Iridescent Sect coming out from there.
“Lady Dreams! What the hell is going on here?" A senior member asked.
Nova walked out of the shield, looked at the senior members who had arrived, and said to the approaching ordinary members, "You all have to retreat first. Stop the others and don't let anyone get close."
Someone still wants to ask. But Nova immediately kicked them out.
"Yes, Lady Dream!"
The senior members of the Iridescent Sect retreated quickly to stop the other members flying over. Nova did this because he was afraid that if Nek went crazy and did this again, the Iridescent Sect would suffer many casualties.
“David, I don't know what technique you're using, but you think you can survive just by doing that? You're too naive. I'll smash your head today!" Nek said with clenched teeth.
In reality, if he changed his technique after he failed for the first time, David would not be able to fight back. However, Nek did not want to, and he could not . He insisted on killing David this way.
"Sir, I have to say that you talk a lot. There's a saying in my hometown that assholes die from talking too much. If you speak so much nonsense today, you are destined to suffer in the future" David said calmly.
"It's time for you to die!"
He looked at David and stopped talking. Every time he was the first to speak, he ended up boiling. On the other hand, David still looks calm and focused.
Hence, Nek continued to increase the strength of his hand. This time, to make sure nothing went wrong, Nek planned to kill David directly with 80% of his strength. However, at this moment, the air suddenly froze. Nek was surprised, and his hand stopped as well. Then there was a cold voice from all directions.
"Sir, this is the Iridescent Sect. How long are you gonna be acting? Do you really think no one in the Iridescent Sect can conquer you?"
After hearing this voice, Celeste cried happily.
'We're saved!'
Celeste knows this voice. Although this was not his teacher Eira, he was still one of the leading elders of the Iridescent Sect in the Saint Realm. With her around him, Nek would not dare to do anything.
Celeste was not the only one who was overjoyed, Nova and the others were also very happy to hear this voice. The honored elder finally appeared. They were finally rescued.
"Esteemed chief, I have something to say! I did not cause the current situation because I caused a commotion. Rather, it was because someone had gone too far. One cannot insult a Saint in Star Kingdom, but I have been greatly insulted here today. You are also a Saint, so I'm sure you can understand me. If you were in my position, you'd do the same as me." Nek explained out loud.
Judging just from the voices of others, he knew that this person was definitely not his opponent. The strength of these older Pre-Saint, who had accumulated their strength for tens of thousands of years, was completely unfathomable.
"They can't insult you, but you can insult us? You hurt our people and destroyed our buildings. Aren't you insulting us by doing that?"
“Famous Elders, let's be reasonable! You have not asked the details of this matter clearly, so it is inappropriate for you to be arbitrary!"
"Considerate? Is Star Kingdom a place to reason? This is a place for powerful people. Whoever is strongest makes the rules. What if we duel and whoever wins will make the rules?"
“Leading Elder, you must be kidding. How could I, a junior, fight you? Isn't that the same as bullying me?"
"Since you don't dare to fight me, I will give you a month to return this place to its original state. You are not allowed to use any resources from the Iridescent Sect. If you can't do it, my sister and I will take a trip to your family."
When Nek heard that the four leading elders of the Iridescent Sect were going to visit the Simmons family, he panicked. He couldn't even defeat one of them, let alone four. Even if he asked the grandmaster for help, they still could not win.
He could not let them go to the Simmons family. However, Nek refused to directly bow his head and admitted defeat. It was stipulated in the Universal Convention that Saints could not act at will in the Star Kingdom.
Especially if it was between two Saints because the destructive power would be too great. Once both sides fought for real, it would cause immeasurable losses for Star Kingdom.
In the past, two Saints fought too intensely during their battle and as a result alone destroyed a continent inhabited by hundreds of millions of people. It caused the continent to disintegrate, and over 9.9% of the life on the continent to die.
The battle was described as a disaster. The people of the continent also experienced what seemed to be the end of the world. Countless lives died in fear and despair.
From then on, to avoid a repeat of that dire situation, the Convention of the Universe added one more rule. Saints were not allowed to take action in Star Kingdom. Otherwise, they would be collectively punished by all of Saint Star Kingdom.
If they wanted to fight, they would have to leave Star Kingdom and fight in the void outside. No one would care if they did that.
Of course, this is not absolute. Nek managed to limit his strength to a small distance and did not cause any damage, so everyone also closed their eyes and did not pay much attention to him. Saints should have the rights they deserve. Otherwise, they would not be able to fight back if they were scolded.
Perhaps no Saint would agree with that. Everyone nearly died through countless hardships and worked hard to become a Saint only to become superior to others and enjoy the respect and admiration of many.
If the results they get are more restrictive, no one will accept this. Moreover, all life in the Star Kingdom, whether it was humans or other races, would be added to the organization automatically once they reached the Saint Realm.
The name of the organization is The Saints Association. The Convention of the Universe was created by The Saints Association. All Saints in Star Kingdom were managed by The Saints Association. However, The Saints Association did not have as many strict rules and regulations as the other powers in Star Kingdom.
The Saint Association was actually a very relaxed organization. Their greatest role was to gather all the Saints in Star Kingdom as Star Kingdom faced a crisis and worked together to fight a crisis together. At the same time, it would also limit the Saint's mistakes in Star Kingdom to avoid serious internal friction in Star Kingdom. As for the other trifles, The Saint Association would not care about them.
"Famous Elders, you are outrageous! Anyway, I am! Also a Saint, and in the Star Kingdom, a Saint was insults. It is recognized by everyone. This kid David immediately scolded my family. Shouldn't I fight? As for what I did, I was blinded by anger. So please, Prominent Elder, forgive me" Nek said with a frown.
"Are you saying it's right to act so recklessly in the Iridescent Sect because you're angry? Let me tell you, Grandma, fortunately, today's incident didn't cause any casualties. Otherwise, you won't be able to get out of here safely. We sisters haven't been out for a long time and everyone has almost forgotten us. Don't force us to use you as a way to show our strength" the elder from the Iridescent Sect said in a hostile tone.
During this period, their plan was temporarily suspended as Celeste's alluring body was activated.As a result, the four sisters were in a bad mood.
Then, Nek accidentally caused a problem. If Celeste had not brought back Lorraine to calm the atmosphere of the Leading Elder, Nek would have suffered today. The Saints Association would not allow a Saint to fight inside the Star Kingdom because they were afraid that after the battle it would cause enormous casualties and impact.
However, as long as everything was kept on a small scale, The Saints Association would not care.
