Seeing the corpses becoming “alive” again caused many full-shift contenders to feel their blood run cold. Nevertheless, Farron merely sneered. “Phantom King, foolish trick!”

After Farron huffed contemptuously, he wielded a shapeshifted arm and slammed down. A terrifying aura descended and mashed the corpses into a sludgy flesh mix. This way, no matter how powerful the Phantom King was, it was impossible to manipulate a pile of sludge.

“Hehe, it’s indeed Farron. Doomsday, Farron is your old friend, I’ll leave him to you.”

The Phantom King’s silky voice resounded. Following that, a black shadow appeared in the great hall as if “walking out” of the void.

Farron fixed his sight. This was the opponent whom he had battled several times before – the so-called “old friend”, Doomsday!

Doomsday was here. Farron looked behind Doomsday. There was no one there but Farron knew that the Shadow King must have concealed himself once again. The Shadow King’s strange ability it difficult to track where he was.

“Hehe, leaving already? Since you dare to enter the palace, you’ll never leave...”

Suddenly, a taciturn but faintly elderly-sounding voice resounded. An old man with a head full of white hair and bursting with energy emerged from behind the king. A murderous aura flared from the old man.

“Show yourself!”

The old man snarled. His body gave off a white light that shrouded the entire great hall. At the same time, a dark shadow appeared not too far away from the king.

“Found you!”

The old man jeered. This shadow was most likely the Shadow King. He was trying to approach the king but his plan was foiled when the old man revealed his whereabouts.

The old man immediately shapeshifted. His entire being seemed to be shrouded in a layer of holy light. However, this holy light seemed to be burning. The brilliance drove a violent slap at the shadow.

“Crash.”

There was a loud noise as the shadow was broken. Four people appeared in the great hall. They were the Shadow King, the Phantom King, the Liberator, and the Nine-lives Werewolf.

The Shadow King narrowed his eyes. “It’s the old folk hidden away by the royal family. Impressive, truly impressive, he managed to break my Shadow Incarnation!”

The so-called Shadow Incarnation was the Shadow King’s shadow form. No one could detect his tracks so he could lay an ambush or escape unnoticed.

Right now, however, the Shadow King’s Shadow Incarnate had been destroyed by this mysterious old man.

“Hehe, no matter how impressive he may be, it’s four against one. Kill!”

The person who spoke was the Liberator. His most powerful skill was his arm. Even his Supreme Talent was contained in this arm.

“Liberate!”

The brilliant rays in the air formed a huge arm that could draw people from the deepest abyss. A tremendous pressure immediately descended on the old man.

Each member of the royal family, upon becoming an ultimate contender, was extremely formidable. This was because they possessed a top-tier almighty beast bloodline. Nonetheless, this top-tier almighty beast bloodline was one that was forcefully induced from the the Sacred Lion Beast’s head a long time ago.

Compared to other full-shifters, they were almost invincible but compared to the ultimate contenders, the royal family had a fatal disadvantage. Since their bloodline was birthed by force, their Supreme Talents, even at the ultimate limit, were not far superior to ultimate contenders from high-tier almighty beast bloodlines.

Their Supreme Talents might even be a little worse off than some of the ultimate contenders who had a more unique high-tier almighty beast. This was the natural balance of strength and weakness present in all creatures. Prior to becoming the ultimate contenders, the royal family had an absolute advantage over everyone else. However, after becoming ultimate contenders, they no longer gained any edge.

“Bang.”

The Liberator and the old man from the royal family collided violently. For an instant, the entire palace shook as if it would collapse at any time. The collision between ultimate contenders was truly fearsome.

“Haha, old pal, can’t hold on anymore? I guess both of us still have to chip in.”

Behind the king, another two old men emerged – both ultimate contenders as well. The auras emanating from these two old men seemed to complement the first old man.

The three ultimate contenders of the royal family was confronting the four rebel army leaders.

“Today, none of you will escape!”

Although the three old men were outnumbered, the auras on their bodies complemented each other. The radiance on their bodies seemed to merge.

“Hum.”

Suddenly, a frightening aura arose in the air. A layer of light shrouded the entire Holy Dragon City. Every person in the city was suppressed, and in the air, an apparition of an enormous head appeared.

“This... This is the Sacred Lion Beast’s head?”

Instantly, all the rebel army leaders’ heart sank. They might have underestimated the Holy Dragon royal family.

...

In the Princess Royal’s palace, following the emergence of a trepidation aura, Merlin jumped to his feet and looked at the enormous head hanging in the sky.

“An apparition of the Sacred Lion Beast’s head? It looks like the battle has begun...”

Merlin mumbled under his breath. He did not know why an apparition of the Sacred Lion Beast’s head would appear but he knew that Doomsday and the others must have arrived.

“So, the rumor is true?”

Seeing the apparition of the Sacred Lion Beast’s head in the air, the Princess Royal appeared shaken to the core.

“Lisa, what rumor is that?”

Merlin also gazed at the Sacred Lion Beast’s head in the air. He could feel a slight suppression.

The Princess Royal pointed at the Sacred Lion Beast’s head. Gently, she said, “The Sacred Lion Beast’s head is the foundation of the royal family. According to rumors, the royal family has a technique that is mastered exclusively by the ultimate contenders, which are the old folks. They can mobilize a portion of power from the Sacred Lion Beast’s head. Originally, I thought that it’s merely an exaggeration but surprisingly, it’s true.”

The Princess Royal stared at the Sacred Lion Beast’s head in the sky, obviously astounded.

“The battle must be in full swing now. Lisa, we should go there at once. If we’re late, something might happen...”

Merlin squinted his eyes. Most probably, the situation in the Holy Dragon Empire would change drastically from today onward.

The Princess Royal considered for a moment but quickly raised her head. Her eyes were filled with conviction.

“Let’s go, Leon. No matter what, I’m first and foremost the Princess Royal of the royal family. So, we should get rid of Doomsday and the others first.”

The Princess Royal stared at Merlin with a pair of doe eyes. At this time, the Princess Royal was still able to sort out her priorities. The royal family must remain standing for her to fight for the throne.

If the royal family no longer existed, then her fight was meaningless.

“I understand.”

Merlin nodded. Together with Lisa, he strode toward the king’s palace.
