Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1332

Chapter 1332 Royal Palace

"How dare you look down on me, a mere human!" Royal Guard Basar's countenance seethed with anger, incensed by Yuan's suggestion that he take a break.

Yuan shrugged and remarked, "Why do giants obsessively look down on humans? If I recall correctly, giants used to be humans."

"..."

The entire venue fell into an abrupt and eerie silence as if Yuan had uttered something he wasn't supposed to disclose.

After a moment of chilling silence, Royal Guard Basar erupted with extreme anger, roaring, "Blasphemy! The audacity to compare a giant's bloodline to that of a lowly human! I will not let this slide!"

Royal Guard Basar's eyes turned red, resembling that of a wild beast, and his aura gushed with immense killing intent.

However, no matter how angry he got, he was still below Yuan in strength, and after another hour of brawling, Royal Guard Basar exhausted his spiritual energy and mental strength.

Eventually, Royal Guard Basar succumbed, dropping to his knees with a broken arm that no longer recovered.

"Victor—Tian Yang!" The judge declared a few seconds later when he could not sense any will to fight in Royal Guard Basar's eyes.

Yuan took a deep breath before walking off the stage.

Despite winning the fight, he was not satisfied with the results, as it had taken him everything to defeat Royal Guard Basar.

'I won't be able to win the future matches at this rate. I have to find a way to further strengthen myself before the next match begins!' He thought to himself.

Just as Yuan walked off the stage, Giant Emperor Kulas stood from his seat and spoke, "We will stop here for today and will resume in 48 hours."

'This is perfect!' Yuan smiled inwardly.

Seeing how he was given so much time, Yuan realized that the Stairway to Heaven already anticipated that he would lose the next match and gave him some time to prepare.

'The Stairway to Heaven expects me to grow during the trials. After all, this place is also a training ground for me.'

For most, the Stairway to Heaven is perceived merely as a bothersome wall one must climb to reach the upper heavens. Few pause to ponder its true purpose—a training ground, offering an opportunity to surpass one's limits.

"What are you waiting for?" Giant Emperor Kulas asked his daughter when he noticed that she wasn't following him back to the palace.

Princess Meiya replied with a smile, "I'm going to stay with my new friends for a little longer."

Giant Emperor Kulas looked at her gaze that was directed in Yuan's direction and laughed out loud, "Why don't you invite your friends to the palace?"

"Are you sure, father?"

"When have I ever doubted myself?" Giant Emperor Kulas said before disappearing from the scene.

A few moments later—

"Look! Princess Meiya is coming to the crowd!"

"I wonder what she's going to say?!"
