Chapter 401 401-Starts Of The Event



Dave displayed his arrogance, causing even the emperor to feel suffocated, resulting in an abrupt silence.

"Please, Young Master Dave, restrain yourself,"

Wendy suddenly interjected, her gaze conveying anger.

Her unexpected show of bravery shocked everyone, including the emperor, who sensed the potential danger in her words.

Dave smiled playfully at Wendy\'s intervention and complied with her request.

He reigned in his aura and addressed everyone, saying, "Well, I\'m not here to cause trouble. We came to watch, but if they offend my woman again, I won\'t hesitate to confront them."

"Furthermore, the demonic sect will cease to exist, so there\'s no need for concern,"

Dave added, his words carrying a weight that left others astounded.

Karina\'s lack of visible emotion only added to the conviction of his statement.

Dave then extended greetings to the emperor and others, his demeanor notably different from a while ago.

He appeared respectful, yet everyone sensed an underlying, terrifying aura about him.

He also exchanged greetings with Lilia, who wore a bitter smile, seeming reluctant to interact with him, as if she felt her clan\'s treasury had been in danger once more.

Despite his smile, an air of danger surrounded him, making everyone uncomfortable.

Observing Dave\'s non-confrontational approach, the emperor and others decided to let the matter rest.

They withheld any hostility toward Karina, seeing her behave like a proper lady, and refrained from causing any further issues with Dave.

Even though Dave had declared that he didn\'t require his clan\'s support, uncertainty remained about whether the Alexander Clan might intervene.

Dave winked at Wendy and walked toward her seat, an action that didn\'t go unnoticed by the crowd, leaving them stunned.

Wendy hadn\'t anticipated his approach and looked at him with a frown, questioning, "Why?"

Dave smiled and replied, "Nothing much, I just missed you. I thought maybe we could hang out again. And I had a feeling you might be missing me too."

As Dave\'s words spread, an uproar erupted among the onlookers.

They couldn\'t believe that he was openly engaging with their royal princess, who, if not for her gender, might be the heir to the throne due to her exceptional talent.

Her abilities far surpassed those of others, granting her the freedom to avoid being forced into marriage with members of other clans.

Wendy hadn\'t anticipated that Dave would openly declare his feelings in front of everyone, leaving her both surprised and angry.

The emperor, however, saw potential in Dave as a suitable candidate for his daughter and didn\'t seem to mind the situation.

"Hmm, who would miss you? I don\'t even know you,"

Wendy retorted angrily, though she managed to restrain herself from launching a more direct attack.

Dave smiled in response and teased, "Hmm, you\'ve broken through to True Saint, and now you\'re getting disobedient with your boyfriend."

"What?"

The emperor, along with everyone else on the platform, was taken aback by Dave\'s revelation.

Those in the vicinity overheard their conversation, causing the news to quickly spread among the crowd.

Their surprise was evident, and upon scanning Wendy, they realized her strength had become difficult to gauge.

"Is it true?" Warren looked at his daughter, astonished.

Wendy was seething with anger towards Dave, but she reluctantly nodded and explained, "I was just lucky."

Dave knew that she had already surpassed True Saint but he didn\'t intend to reveal it to others.

The Crown Prince\'s expression darkened. He hadn\'t expected his sister to have already reached such a level of power.

Dave then turned his attention to the Crown Prince and a nearby princess, asking casually, "Mind if we take these seats?"

Dave\'s request was akin to a slap to the Crown Prince\'s face, leaving him furious.

The princess, on the other hand, blushed due to Dave\'s charm and was perfectly fine with it.

"You," the Crown Prince began, but Dave\'s smile disappeared as he coolly challenged, "What about me?"

An immediate wave of unease washed over the Crown Prince.

However, a message from the emperor prompted him to hold his tongue.

"You may," the Crown Prince acquiesced, his face red from embarrassment.

He held a respected position due to his strength and status, but Dave\'s power and standing clearly overshadowed his own.

Even his father backed down in the face of Dave\'s influence.

"Hmm, I thought that you want to force me"

Dave smiled, taking Karina\'s hand as they took their seats together.

"Hubby, you\'re bad, flirting while I\'m right here,"

Karina playfully scolded, adopting an adorable expression.

Dave held her hand, knowing she was just playing around.

He had already mentioned his history with various women, including the royal clan\'s princess, to Karina, so her reaction wasn\'t one of surprise.

For Wendy, witnessing their flirtatious interaction irritated her to no end.

Her desire to punish Dave intensified, fueled by the sight of the two of them behaving so intimately near her.

......…

The commotion gradually subsided, and Dave\'s arrival left others feeling excited, as they hoped to catch his attention.

The women were filled with admiration and eager to showcase their skills, hoping that Dave would take notice of them.

The event had begun, and the 10,000 selected geniuses now occupied the stage. The first test was simple—a test of willpower.

Standing on the stage, the participants awaited the signal. A True Saint stepped forward, preparing to release his aura.

The challenge was clear: those who remained standing after enduring the pressure for a minute would pass this stage. It was designed to weed out a significant number of contenders.

"Get ready," an old man announced, his appearance signaling the imminent release of his aura.

Boom!

With the release of the True Saint\'s aura, numerous geniuses found themselves unable to withstand the intense pressure, collapsing to the ground.

Eliminations were swift and relentless, with participants dropping out by the second.

The process was brutal, but it ensured that only the strongest would progress.

Although the top clan geniuses displayed considerable resilience, many still struggled to maintain their composure in the face of such a formidable aura.

Venice, Jiang Chen, and some exceptional geniuses from top clans managed to maintain calm expressions despite the overwhelming aura.

Even the second prince, participating in the event, displayed a composed demeanor.

After a minute of enduring the pressure, only 1,000 geniuses remained on their feet.

A staggering 90% of the initial participants had been eliminated in this first round.

This outcome was considered favorable, especially when compared to a previous event where only 700 had made it past the first round.
