My Substitute CEO Bride

He had used his true energy to shout, and the ripples of his sound waves washed over the Western camp.

All the King Realm cultivators were terrified and did not even dare to look Ryan in the eye.

Meanwhile, the Legendary Realm cultivators gritted their teeth, wishing they could storm down to the arena to teach this good-for-nothing Eastern cultivator a lesson. However, they had witnessed what happened to John from the Radiant Guild. Without the protection of the Temple of Frey, no one knew whether the Radiant Guild could make it out of the secret realm alive.

Bobbit swept his gaze over everyone standing behind him, and a sad smile tugged on his lips when he realized no one else was going to stand forth. "Are we really going to have to hand over the Sacred Sword of Ice?"

A gloomy look settled across Maidee's features. "If we give up the Sacred Sword of Ice, Frey will have us kicked out of the temple!"

Bobbit had a rueful expression on his face. "So, what should we do now? Who else can we put our hopes on?"

Maidee was at a loss too. Their King Realm cultivator had already received a great shock, and it would not be right to shove him into the arena, right?"

Bobbit suddenly turned to stare at Maidee, a smile glinting in his eyes.

Maidee frowned. "Why are you looking at me?"

Then, he immediately realized what was happening. He was a King Realm cultivator as well!

Bobbit had a half smile on his face as he said, "Ryan was aided by a secret technique previously. He may look awe-inspiring now, but it's all an act. Given your skills, there's no doubt you can defeat him!" After a moment's deliberation, Maidee nodded. "Alright, I'll go!"

Once he finished speaking, he grabbed his staff and leaped toward the arena.

"Fuck, do you have no shame? How could you participate in this competition when you're one of the organizers?"

Eric nearly leaped into the air himself.

He knew the extent of Maidee's powers.

His mastery of witchcraft meant he could easily defeat even someone who had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm. Ryan was in such bad shape now and was no match for Maidee.

Maidee gave a slight smile. "I'm a King Realm cultivator, which means I'm eligible according to the arena's rules, aren't I?"

Dante and Dallas had solemn expressions on their faces. Memories of the firestorm Maidee had caused were still fresh in their minds.

Could Ryan be able to hold up against such powerful witchcraft?

Yanna said in a low voice, "Ryan's spirit is extremely weak right now. He can't engage in another battle!"

Upon hearing that, Dallas immediately said, "Dante, please bring Ryan back to the ground!"

As Dante waved his arms, a gentle but firm gust of wind brought Ryan back to the ground.

"Gosh, what are you doing?" Ryan glared at Dante.

"Your current condition leaves you unfit to engage in further battle!" Dante said calmly.

Ryan tried to discreetly channel some of his spiritual energy but realized his energy center had run completely dry. Not even a single drop remained within his spiritual and mental realms.

"That's on me!"

Ryan grinned bashfully before he turned to Eric and said, "Eric, why don't you go and fight him!"

Eric was just about to say no when Ryan continued egging him on, "Come on, you're a Golden Amulet Master. Are you really going to chicken out?" Fuck!

Was Ryan trying to incite him?

That would not work!

He was very well-assured of himself!

Eric was still trying to think of an excuse he could give when Dermott got to his feet. "I'll fight him!"

Eric was stunned.

The others were flabbergasted as well.

He had only achieved early stage Mystique Loyalty Realm!

What gave him the confidence to fight Maidee?

Also, who was he?

Dermott gave a composed smile. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dermott, and I'm one of Drakonia's four Golden Amulet Masters!" Dante frowned slightly. "You've only just achieved early stage Mystique Loyalty Realm. Are you sure you want to fight him?"

Dermott fidgeted with a jet-black

thumb as he said confidently, "Get a cup of hot water and watch as defeat Maidee before the water cools!"

en

The temperature was still freezing right now. Dante immediately retrieved a cup of hot water from his storage ring. Dermott leaped toward the arena.

Maidee glanced at Dermott. A genial

smile spread across his face as he said, "My dear child, was there no one else they could have sent?

You've only achieved early stage Mystique Loyalty Realm, yet you're here to battle a King Realm cultivator?"

Dermott clasped his hands behind his back. "Cut the crap and unleash your skills!"

Maidee did not bother saying much else and drove his staff to the ground.

Everyone watched as the ground transformed into a swamp and the sludge weaved its way up Dermott's legs as if it were a living creature.
