If he was too conspicuous, the ancient Heavenly Court and the Beelzebub royal family
might notice him. Although Tanner Lowe helped him to conceal his deeds in the Beelzebub
royal family, the Beelzebub
royal family might still target him.
Soon, Philip arrived at a huge square in the center of Cirrus City.
It was packed with people, but it was quiet in the middle. Except for a huge stone and
dozens of nine-star powerhouses, there was no one else.
A middle-aged man wearing a golden robe with cloud patterns embroidered on it stood in
the forefront. The man's eyes were sharp, and his demeanor was a little cold as he
casually glanced at the people around him.
As the number of people increased, the man finally spoke coldly.
"The ancient ruin will open in three days. Now, anyone under the age of 50 can step

"This test is for your own good. If you don't want to die a tragic death in the ancient ruin,
it's best to test your strength here."
With that said, the man stopped talking and quietly waited for qualified people to step
forth.
Everyone looked at each other. Although the man did not say much, he had revealed two
crucial pieces of information.
Firstly, the ancient ruin would open in three days!
Secondly, the ancient ruin was full of danger!
In fact, everyone was aware of the second point. After all, good things came with a price.
Practice in itself was a death-defying act!
The same held true for the opportunities in the ancient ruin. However, no one wanted to
take the lead.
After half an hour of silence, a drawling voice sounded.
"What a bunch of trash. No one dares to take the test? In that case, the Cumulus Guild will
set an example for you."
With that said, a man in a white robe stepped forward nonchalantly, his eyes full of
laziness and disdain. His words also made the eyes of many people present turn cold.
"Outrageous!"
"How impudent!"
"If I can enter the ancient ruin this time, I'll kill everyone from the Cumulus Guild!"
Hearing this, the man who was walking forward turned around and glanced at the man
who said that with a strange smile in his eyes.
"Do you want to kill the people of the Cumulus Guild?"
With that said, his energy surged and turned into a snow-white sword with cloud patterns
flickering. It had a sharp aura.

The next moment, the sword rushed toward the speaker.
The man said, "You first need to ask if I, Neal, agree!"
With that said, the sword pierced through the man's head, and blood gushed, splashing on
the onlookers. Many were stained with blood.
In the middle of the square, the man in the golden robe looked interested but made no
move to stop him. As a practitioner, watching one's words was the most basic.
How could one get stronger if they did not even know how to mind their language?
Of course, if one was strong and talented enough, one did not have to abide by this
principle.
Neal glanced at the dead body and shook his head lazily.
"You're really useless. You're already in your 40s and have only reached seven stars, but
you dare to speak so brazenly?"
