King of Titans and Dragons
Chapter 400 - 400 395 Chickens Pecking Each Other

Chapter 400: Chapter 395 Chickens Pecking Each Other Chapter 400: Chapter 395 Chickens Pecking Each Other “Duke Mureya, according to the latest data, we now have more than ten thousand human competitors who have registered and qualified. Furthermore, this number is still rising.”

One day after the registration had begun, an officer tasked with counting the number of competitors stood in the spacious hall, reporting the data he had gathered from various places to Mureya, who sat high upon his throne.

“Hmm, keep monitoring it. During the registration period, report to me the number of qualified competitors every day.”

“Yes, sir.”

“During the competition, no matter who these registered competitors are or who they have offended in the past, no one is allowed to harm them. Whoever disobeys will be considered my enemy.”

Mureya sternly looked at another group of ministers, restating the rules he had set prior to the competition.

Any talented youth will naturally be proud and arrogant, and these traits make them prone to offend others. Truly, a genius who can stay quietly at home and do nothing is a rare creature indeed.

According to Mureya’s research, almost every genius has offended someone. Excluding noble geniuses, every common-genius has made enemies, with many having eschewed people chasing after them.

Practicing requires resources. Whether it’s meditation methods or breathing methods, at the very least, one must have a full stomach to maintain physical consumption during practice. If one wishes to speed up their practice, more resources are required.

How do geniuses born into common families obtain practice resources? Most people can only strive, snatch, or kill. Only a small number of geniuses with side jobs can support their own practices through their abilities. Therefore, it’s not surprising that almost every common-genius would have a batch of enemies and chasers.

If Mureya wants them to participate in the competition, he must ensure their safety, especially for those unfortunate geniuses who are currently in troubled times. Without someone to protect them, they wouldn’t dare reveal themselves.

“Duke Mureya, your requirement has been announced to all nobles and lords. They will surely obey your command,” a minister stepped forward to report.

“Heh.” Mureya chuckled dismissively. The nobles, who control most of the kingdom’s practice resources, are the group that the common-genius offended the most and are the ones who most often hunt them down.

“I have dispatched all my Cloud Giants and three hundred Storm Giants to various places across the kingdom.

I’ve issued a notice that all qualified competitors can seek the protection of the Cloud Giants. I’d like to see which great noble would dare to touch them during this competition.”

Mureya informed the gathering of nobles and ministers of the orders he’d issued yesterday. In the present Lockman Kingdom, who didn’t know that behind the Cloud Giants stands the ruling Duke? The Cloud Giants are an extension of Mureya’s will in the Lockman Kingdom.

“This…” The nobles and ministers looked at each other, feeling helpless. This ruling Duke often summoned them just to inform them of his orders rather than let them pass on and execute them, which they considered quite excessive.

“BOOM!” Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded, followed by the continuous noise of collapsing buildings. The nobles in the council hall looked bewildered. It clearly was the sound of a battle, but why would there be a fight in the royal palace?

“Two unruly brats.” Mureya massaged his temples after hearing the sound, not giving the curious nobles and ministers the chance to ask questions, his figure disappeared in an instant.

“All of you may leave. Report to me tomorrow about the competition’s arrangements.” Hearing the last sentence Mureya left before leaving the Council Hall, the nobles could only sigh and leave reluctantly.

Although curious, they didn’t have the guts to wander around the palace and find the source of the noise. Although the Cloud Giants had been dispatched, some of the more powerful Storm Giants were still stationed within the palace.

As the nobles and ministers left, Mureya appeared at the location where the explosion and collapsing buildings were heard. He then saw two lolis battling each other: Yingdila and Remilia.

Remilia, wielding Gungnir, the Spear of Absolute Hit, and the bare-handed Yingdila were engaged in intense combat in the air, ten meters above the ground. Between each of their movements, they unleashed trails of spear light and fist shadows, exhibiting their powerful physical strength.

Around them, more than twenty Storm Giants watched the two lolis, who were enjoying the fight, with a bit of hesitation. They seemed to want to stop the fight, but because of their identities, they didn’t know how to intervene.

“Another one broken!” Mureya looked at the nearby circular arena that had been clearly damaged by some great force, a look of helplessness on his face.

Since the night that Yingdila and Remilia became “friends” through a common fight, they’ve been constantly together every day, “playing” in ways that ordinary people couldn’t imagine.

Fighting! This was the only common activity when the two lolis were together. As soon as they met in the palace, they would fight without a word, using all their strength and all the ways they had to attack each other, aiming to hurt the other one and make them cry out first.

Their constant fighting irked Mureya, so he assigned people to build an arena where several palaces inside the palace had been leveled. He let the two lolis fight in there as they pleased, as he no longer worried about them.

Yingdila, a mysterious creature from the void with strong vitality who could resist legendary attacks, and Remilia, who had inherited the incomplete True Ancestor bloodline and possessed strong healing abilities— at least Yingdila couldn’t harm Remilia without using her strange devouring ability and transformation ability.

Therefore, it didn’t matter to Mureya whether these two lolis, who were strong in defense and health but lacked attack power, fought each other as he had forbidden Yingdila from using her taboo-like devouring ability and transformation ability.

“Enough!” As Mureya pondered, the two entangled lolis demolished another palace. This darkened Mureya’s face, and he immediately stepped in to stop them.

To Mureya, the fights between these two lolis were like chickens pecking each other—chaotic and without any skill or technique. They simply relied on their powerful bodies to brawl, so Mureya referred to it as “playing.”

But neither of the two lolis paid any attention to Mureya. Therefore, under the watch of many Storm Giants, Mureya walked into the palace, which had turned into ruins. He then walked out with a loli in each hand. Amid the muffled sounds, Mureya could be heard chiding lightly,

“Have you forgotten all the combat techniques I taught you? If you want to fight, be serious. No messing around.”
