Chapter 1395
They did not know how powerful Jared was, so it would be risky for Edgar to pit himself against Jared.
“This, of course, I understand. All participants go to the Trial with the mental preparation that they might
get injured or even face death,” Mr. Sanders said nonchalantly.
Ryker could not find any more excuse to reject Mr. Sanders' request, so he nodded and replied, “In that
case, Jared is welcome to participate. However, should anything untoward happen to him, I hope you
will not fault the Deragons, Mr. Sanders.”
“Don't worry about that!” Mr. Sanders promised. Then he threw the document back to Ryker. “Your
application is approved.”
With that, he waved Ryker off. Ryker retreated and left.
After he left the premise of the Department of Justice, a worried look appeared on Ryker's face. With
the unexpected inclusion of Jared as a participant in the Trial, he had to relook into his plans and make
sure nothing would get out of hand.
After sailing for two days, Zion finally arrived at the fascinating Encanta Island in the Southern Sea.
Encanta Island had only tens of thousands of inhabitants, but every one of them was a powerful fighter.
Rumors had it that even the weakest among the residents on that island was a Grandmaster!
Encanta Island was located far from other land masses and was right in the middle of the vast ocean.
As such, the spiritual energy on the island was more vibrant compared to other places.
Gradually, it attracted more and more energy cultivators, and as the words spread, it became known as
the island of the immortals.
Most people imagined life on Encanta Island would be perfect and heavenly, but people in the know
knew it wasn't so. The residents of the island were not immortals with superpowers, and they lived just
like normal people there.
Encanta Island was ruled by Diego Duncan, who was effectively the king of the island. Everything on
the island was under his control.
Diego and Zion were old acquaintances. As such, when Zion found out Jared was an energy cultivator,
he immediately thought of Diego.
Zion knew that many energy cultivators could not adapt to life in a society whereby spiritual energy was
scarce. Many such energy cultivators could not make much progress in such an unfriendly
environment.
Jared, who defied the norm and suddenly made miraculous progress within a short few months, must
have possessed something special. Zion was hoping to make use of this fact to entice Diego, so he
would agree to help him deal with Jared.
“Who are you?” Two guards stopped Zion as he approached the palace grounds.
Zion was exhausted after a tiring two-day journey. Without an arm and looking haggard fromnovelbin
exhaustion, he looked like a beggar.
“I'm here to see Diego. Do you mind informing him?” he requested politely.
One of the guards scrutinized Zion, then yelled harshly, “How dare you? The nerve of a beggar like you
to call King Duncan by his name!”
“You must be mistaken, my friend. I'm not a beggar. I'm your King Duncan's friend, and I've come
specially to visit him,” Zion said patiently and humbly.
The usually high and mighty President Zeigler of Warriors Alliance could only behave deferentially in
the face of the two guards.
That guard threw him another glance before saying coldly, “Come with me.”
Zion followed the guard and walked through the palace grounds. When they reached a stone wall, the
guard activated a secret switch, and a door opened up on the wall.
Beyond the wall, it was a beautiful and scenic place, filled with cheery sounds of chirping birds and the
sweet scents of beautiful flowers.
Zion was impressed by what he saw, and he was secretly envious of Diego's seemingly comfortable life
on that faraway island.
Soon, the guard led him to a place full of spiritual energy and reported, “King Duncan, a friend of yours
is here to visit you.”
“Must be Zion! Let him in!” A loud and powerful voice boomed from a distance.
Upon hearing that, Zion immediately marched in. “You have such a heavenly place here, Diego!”
“Oh, this is nothing! How can I compare with the president of Warriors Alliance? In Jadeborough, all the
sects and families have to bow to you, my friend,” Diego said, smilingly returning the compliment.
Upon taking a good look at Zion, he frowned and asked, “What happened to you, Zion?”
