Chapter 5335
Gannon had not been trapped inside the Sword World and only watched from the
sidelines. He was unaware of its actual strength and wanted to fight James to experience it
firsthand. However, Yuvin had already sent him an order. Thus, he immediately dropped
the idea.
He stood in the arena's central region, looked at James, and said smilingly, "You're very
strong, and your Supernatural Power is impressive. I don't think I’ll be able to withstand it
and come out unscathed. I admit defeat."
After speaking, Gannon quickly left the arena.
With the three challengers forfeiting the battle, the bets placed by their respective races
were added to James’ previous prize pool.
"I can't believe he won."
"His opponents underestimated him. Forty-nine would not have defeated them if they had
joined forces in the beginning."
"I agree. Although his Sword Formation is powerful, he couldn't have possibly trapped all
three of them. If either of them could distract Forty-nine from outside the formation, the

other two trapped inside would’ve been able to escape much easier."
Many powerhouses gave their opinions of the battle.
James stood in the arena, a little shocked about winning so easily. Before he could go all
out, his opponents chose to concede defeat.
He did not overthink it and quickly sat in a lotus position to recuperate.
Halianor smiled and commented, 'That kid is quite talented. He'll have great achievements
in the future and is a seed worth investing in.”
"It doesn't look like he intends to leave yet. Does he still want to continue?" Yuvin frowned.
The other powerhouses were also startled by his decision.
Halianor disappeared from the spot and appeared in the arena. He stood before James and
asked smilingly, "You've already won quite a lot, young man. Aren't you planning to stop?"
James looked at the prize pool and replied, "Just one more. I'll stop once I win one more."
"Haha." Halianor chuckled and said, "According to the rules, your opponents for the last
round were supposed to be at the Great Celestial Rank’s early stage. However, two races

chose to send challengers at the Petit Celestial Rank. Regardless, your next round's
challengers will be at the Great Celestial Rank's middle stage. You have another option to
fight opponents at the Great Celestial Rank's late stage. But if you choose to do so, your
challengers will have to place bets much higher than your current prize power to
participate."
Intrigued, James asked, "How much higher do they have to bet?"
Halianor fell into thought. The disparity in strength between someone at the Sovereign
Sixth Rank and the Great Celestial Rank’s late stage was vast. A battle between
powerhouses with such a huge gap in cultivation ranks unheard of.
After a while, he replied, "Logically, a challenger at the Great Celestial Rank’s middle stage
will have to take out twice the amount of your prize pool. The higher one's cultivation
rank, the stronger one is. Your cultivation rank is really low. If you choose to take on
opponents at the Great Celestial Rank’s late stage, the challenger should at least place a
bet three times higher than the prize pool."
Halianor was going through the procedures and explaining the rules to James. He never
expected James to take on opponents at the Great Celestial Rank's late stage since the
strength difference between the Great Celestial Rank's middle stage and the late stage
was enormous. Moreover, James' previous opponents were at the Petit Celestial Rank's

late stage.
'Then, I want to fight opponents at the Great Celestial Rank's late stage," James said
without hesitation.

Halianor was taken off guard by James’ words. He chuckled and replied, "Alright. I’ll make
the necessary arrangements."
James suddenly raised his palm.
Halianor was dumbfounded.
The powerhouses watching from outside the arena were also startled.
Halianor asked uncertainly, "Do you want to take on five challengers?"
James responded calmly, "Yeap, five. I’m going to stop after this round."
'You should think twice about this. You're only at the Sovereign Sixth Rank, and your
opponents will be at the Great Celestial Rank’s late stage," Halianor could not help but
remind him.
"I’ve already decided. Please proceed with the arrangements," James replied, then refused
to continue speaking, i
Countless prodigies and powerhouses from major races were watching him. Everyone was
astounded after hearing that he wanted to challenge five opponents at the Great Celestial
Rank's late stage.
