"!!!"

Not only Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect, but the people from Mount Hua Sect and Zhou Kingdom were also surprised by what they saw.

They saw eight people appear near them and they immediately recognized them the moment they saw the blue-haired man. His clear brown eyes looked very calm but cold, like the calm before the storm.

He stood out easily among others, despite his delicate frame. It was just like he had experienced something terrifying that made his aura feel horrifying.

All of them immediately recognized him.

"Theo from the Southern Kingdom!"

Evelyn immediately sweatdropped. She never expected that the Southern Kingdom really showed up at this time.

She immediately knew their plan would be a failure if this were the case.

Different from her, Erol smirked with an evil intention. He had met him before the tournament.

…

A few minutes before the tournament,

After visiting Hazel Kingdom and Thiveapia Kingdom, Erol immediately went to Southern Kingdom. He knew they had a deep grudge toward Alex. So, he wanted to incite their rage and made them join his group to kill Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect.

Although he knew their royal family had been wiped out, they did not know who it was. So, they wanted to take advantage of this and made Alex as the perpetrator. This way, he would get the support of Southern Kingdom.

He came together with Nash from Hazel Kingdom.

"It has been a while, Theo," Erol said with a friendly tone. He was also surprised by Theo's transformation. He remembered the last time they met, Theo was one of the waste young masters. They were often hanging out in a brothel every time they met.

But when he saw Theo's cold gaze, he was shocked. Even so, he could not back down to manipulate this competition. This was the mission the sect masters gave them. Because of that war, they had lost too much to Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect. So, they were planning to have their revenge the moment they heard the guarantee of Honda Sana.

Their sect master and the elders wanted them to destroy Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect thoroughly. Only this way, they could appease their anger.

"Erol, it's been a while since our last meeting." Theo greeted him back without any expression.

"I hear your family, Aestas Family, has become the new royal family from Southern Kingdom. I am sorry that because I have been busy with this tournament, I can't meet you to celebrate this." Erol smiled.

Theo only shook his head. "You don't need to mind it. So, what do you want by coming to this humble place?"

"Hoho…" Erol was truly surprised by his transformation. Back then, he was always talked for a long time, but This Theo only wanted to end this conversation. Erol did not mind it though, since it was convenient for him. "Well, then I will also cut to the chase. One month ago, I got information about the murderer of the previous royal family."

Theo narrowed his eyes when he heard that. Even his teammates were bewildered by that.

Erol then continued, "Yes. It is Alexander Sirius from Heavenly Sword Sect."

"Alexander Sirius?" Theo looked at Erol coldly as killing intent started filling his eyes.

Erol thought he had succeeded in inciting him, he would just need another push. He said, "Yes. I have got information from the sect master. It seems Alexander Sirius is a rank 4 Array Master. They know about it because Alexander Sirius took his advancement test in the town in front of Mount Hua Sect.

"That's why we have confirmed it was really him. Do you remember the massacre of the Kasmanan Family? If yes, then you must know about the Jadeite Mirror Array."

"Do you mean…" Theo's eyebrows twitched a little bit.

"Yes. When he took his advancement test, he used the Jadeite Mirror Array." Erol nodded. "After some investigation, we had confirmed that he was the murderer of the Makmur Family as well as the royal family."

"..."

"I know. My Mount Hua Sect also lost too much because of the war. After we investigated it, the reason why Thiveapia Kingdom did not join the war and why Zhou Kingdom retreated, it was because of him."

Of course, Erol was lying. He did not know whether Alex was the one who did it or not. He only told Theor the truth about Jadeite Mirror Array, as for the rest of them… he made them up. It was so that he could incite Theo's anger. And seeing Theo's eyes filled with killing intent, he thought he had successfully made him angry.

"That's why. In this tournament, I… no, Mount Hua Sect wants to make the Heavenly Sword Sect miserable. I have contacted Zhou Kingdom and Thiveapia Kingdom, and Nash from Hazel Kingdom also agreed with me in this.

"Four of us might already be enough to deal with Heavenly Sword Sect, but since you are my friend, I want to invite you to this operation." Erol smiled evilly. In fact, he asked them this was just to make the Thiveapia Kingdom obedient.

After all, he knew if the Southern Kingdom did not join them, Thiveapia Kingdom would defect from their alliance and help Evelyn. That way, they would be fighting them equally. So, to keep manipulating the Thiveapia Kingdom, he decided to invite the Southern Kingdom.

Erol remembered that Theo was a fool and was easy to manipulate, so when he heard Theo would be the captain of the Southern Kingdom, he was so surprised beyond belief. But, this also gave him confidence in manipulating the Southern Kingdom.

Theo looked at them without saying anything. "I need time to think about it."

"Come on. You don't need to think about it. I mean, you need to pay that Alexander Sirius back for the humiliation that your kingdom gets. And according to my information, Alexander Sirius is the one who teaches Thiveapia Kingdom Princess Evelyn.

"Although I have promised Thiveapia Kingdom, we won't kill Evelyn, but a few injuries should be fine. As long as she does not die, then we have fulfilled the agreement between us." Erol explained.

Theo did not say anything about this.

Erol was cursing him inside. He never expected he needed so much effort just to make him say yes. He remembered how easy it was to manipulate him back then. With just a single word from him, Theo followed him like his lackey.

"Look, it seems that the sect master is planning to kill him in this tournament. Since he is going to participate in this tournament, as soon as he meets my Mount Hua Sect elder, they will kill him.

"If you are going to accept this, I can even put a word to the elders on how you want him to die. If you want him to be tortured first before he dies, I can put a word to the elders for this. So, how about it?" Erol said smugly.

"I still need time to think." Theo shook his head.

Erol was starting to become impatient. He needed another push for him. "That's right. We also want to attack Rainbow Flower Sect, and I am going to humiliate them. How about we rape them in front of their sect? Those elders from both sects would be able to see it, and I am wondering how much they would suffer just by watching it?

"We are talking about Rainbow Flower Sect here. So, I am sure all of them are beautiful. We can enjoy them together like what we usually do." Erol added in his heart, 'Just accept it, you bastard!'

Theo looked at his teammates. All of them looked very unsure. Suddenly one of them came to him and said, "Captain, Princess Evelyn is the successor of Thiveapia Kingdom after they lost their crown prince. So, I assume the Thiveapia Kingdom would not be easily persuaded. I am afraid they might join this alliance as a spy."

When Theo heard that, he looked at Erol for an explanation. Erol was cursing that person on the inside, but he could not show it in his face for this alliance.

He just smiled and explained it to him. "Of course. This is why I visited Thiveapia Kingdom first. If we have you, we can manipulate Thiveapia Kingdom to act according to our bidding. After all, even if they defect from this alliance and help them, it will only be a 3 versus 4 fight.

"As long as we attack Evelyn continuously, those folks from Thiveapia Kingdom would worry and surrender as long as Evelyn is not harmed. This way, we can suppress all of them at once."

Theo then asked, "But this way, we would invite the wrath of Alexander Sirius. That person has massacred three great families in our kingdom, including the former Royal Family. If he comes again, then our kingdom and my family will be massacred again."

"As I said before, we will take care of Alexander Sirius in this tournament. The reason why he could massacre those three families was that he had made a series of preparations. He made many arrays just to kill them.

"But, in this competition, he would not be able to prepare for it since this competition will be observed by a peak Martial King. If you think about this, then this will be the biggest chance to kill him. Are you going to live under the terror of that person? Is the new Royal Family of Southern Kingdom could only live in fear?" Erol tried to taunt his pride.

Theo hesitated a little bit. What Erol said might make sense, but it was also this reason he hesitated. "Are you sure you can kill him in this tournament?"

"Of course. That Sect Master Xiang Bai would not be able to protect him since he would be killed by that peak Martial King if he makes a move in the tournament." Erol said cunningly.

After a series of explanations, Theo finally said, "We are going to help the one that is likely to win. After the greatest setback our kingdom experienced, we need to rely on this Spirit Stone Mines. So, we still have the intention to win."

"Of course, of course." Erol nodded. "With Evelyn as our hostage, we can even make Thiveapia Kingdom surrender this Spirit Stone Mines. Then, since you have agreed, I need to go back to my teammates so we can prepare our plan."

…

Back to the present,

"Haha… all of your plans have gone to smoke now the Southern Kingdom appears in this place. I will surely humiliate all of you. You can only blame that bastard, Alexander Sirius, for making enemies everywhere!" Erol shouted with confidence.

Erol snorted as he remembered how Theo answered him in a roundabout way. He just needed to say yes and helped them. But since they had come with this perfect timing, he did not care anymore as he wanted to see the demise of Heavenly Sword Sect and enjoyed the beauties from Rainbow Flower Sect.

Evelyn and the others wanted to escape, but at this time, Theo took out his staff and raised it above his head.

Evelyn and the others took out their weapons and were ready to escape while under the onslaught. While Erol and the others looked at them smugly. They were convinced that they would win with the addition of Southern Kingdom.

Theo's staff suddenly became longer and longer. It was a Martial Art. Evelyn immediately raised her sword as she wanted to use her Seven Stars Cut to block this attack then escaped with the others.

Theo then swung his staff down. Erol was laughing as he shouted, "Haha… Kill the man and rape the woman! We need to humiliate Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect!"

Evelyn clenched her sword as she swung it. The overbearing energy that surrounded her sword was ready to shoot out.

"Seven Stars-!" But, just before she managed to fully swing her sword, the staff already landed.

"Gah!"
