Adair swallowed the second half of her sentence when she met Jaime’s unwavering gaze.
Gently pushing the shocked Adair aside, Jaime pointed at Zared again. “In the Jademora Empire, we despise those who rely on connections. Here, your strength is everything. My actions today are not to show off but to claim your ignorant and shameless head.”
After making his declaration, Jaime turned and bowed deeply to Wyot, who hovered in the void above them. He then knelt and said, “As the victor of the Wyrth Selection, I have a request. I hope you will grant it, Dravon War King.”
Adair watched in panic, her heart racing as if she knew Jaime’s intentions.
Wyot, observing from the void, frowned slightly.
“The victor of each world’s Wyrth Selection indeed has the right to make a special request. However, it must be supported by a token, not mere words.”
Jaime swiftly summoned the Marciais Token and tossed it into the void.
Wyot caught it, scrutinized it for a moment, then nodded and asked, “What do you desire?”
Jaime pointed at Zared. “I wish to challenge him and am willing to sign a life-and-death contract.”
A collective gasp arose from the assembly, and everyone’s eyes widened in shock.
Powerhouses from the Greater Realms quickly surrounded Jaime, their voices a chorus of concern.
“That old man is at least at the Soma Daeclon Rank. Are you sure you can handle this?”
Wyot took a deep breath and said, “Very well. You’re heroic and bold, with a spirit that reminds me of James.”
He turned to Zared and asked, “Do you accept the challenge of Skynet’s Young Master, from the Jademora Empire?”
The question hit Zared like thunder, causing him to tremble.
“Accept it! Accept it!” The assembly erupted into a chant. Their cries grew louder, becoming a tidal wave of sound.
Zared, feeling a sudden surge of fear, swallowed hard. His eyes darted around, and his confidence wavered. He couldn’t muster a response, the weight of the challenge pressing heavily upon him.

"Good things take time" Lol yeah, a hundred and fifty trillion years, apparently....
How was Sheldon Jame's first disciple? Wasn't the Black Eagle King the first? Where has he disappeared to all this time?...
Unbelievable... I thought James was rid of the annoying "honey, darling" Thea by going to the Demonic Realm, but now she's gone there too *puke*...
This Thea is the most narcissistic woman of all, constantly interrupting James's cultivation, getting in the way of his plans and slowing him down. He was well rid of her but the author went bonkers a few hundred chapters into the story and decided to pair her back with James.. Yuck!...
Thea doesn't deserve James, it so sad he loves her...
Thank you so much for all the effort. I love all the stories I've read. I hope to continue reading "The Almighty Dragon General" story. 😊...
