Chapter 1283: Chapter 489: Victory Without Fighting_4

"This round should involve not just the people on the trays, others can also help answer."

The National Master’s face turned solemn as Sang Island was one person short, putting them at a disadvantage at the onset. If his estimation was correct, the upcoming palaces would also include such confrontations.

North Pool Shore roared,"What are you guys good at? I have the most confidence in solving divine skill problems." The other Sangdao Monks chimed in, and coincidentally, three out of the five of them were most adept at divine skills. North Pool Shore didn’t hesitate to choose the "Divine Skill" option and pressed it.

The situation on the side of Wood Dynasty was not so good. The six people each excelled in one field, with two of them being good at cultivation. However, their two-versus-three advantage wasn’t good enough, leaving Edgar indecisive. After the selection on Sang Island’s side, the massive scale made creaking sounds and slowly sank on Edgar’s end.

"There’s no more time, hurry up and pick one!" The Wood Dynasty cultivators outside grew anxious, and suddenly Owen Bertram sent a message to Edgar, "Alchemy."

Edgar hesitated but still clenched his teeth and pressed the "Alchemy" option. "Boom—" The sinking of the scale stopped, but Edgar’s side was still one foot lower than North Pool Shore’s side.

The radiance flickered before them, and a cultivation problem emerged for both sides. On Sang Island’s side, it was divine skills, while on Edgar’s side, it was alchemy. The first problem was relatively simple, and both parties answered it correctly. However, the difficulty increased with each subsequent problem. Both parties relied on their partners for help in solving the problems.

Edgar’s situation was even worse because his expertise was in Arrays! He could only rely on another partner who excelled in alchemy. When it came to the fourth question, his partner got stuck. Meanwhile, North Pool Shore and his two partners were quickly discussing the fourth question and were about to answer it. Edgar was anxious but didn’t dare rush his partner when Owen Bertram’s voice reached his ears, relaying the answer to the question. Edgar heaved a sigh of relief; Owen Bertram indeed had something up his sleeve when he suggested Edgar choose "Alchemy."

He quickly selected the answer, overtaking Sang Island by a step.

Creak Creak Creak...

The scale started moving, lifting Edgar’s side by a foot, leveling it with North Pool Shore! North Pool Shore was taken aback, but he steadied his mind and remained unaffected, continuing to solve the problems.

However, Edgar immediately received the answer for the fifth alchemy problem from Owen Bertram right after the question surfaced.

Creak Creak Uh...

The scale moved again, leaving North Pool Shore’s side a foot lower. The National Master glanced at Owen Bertram unhappily and messaged, "Listen to my command!" North Pool Shore’s spirits soared, and he thought, ’With the backing of the National Master, we can’t lose!’

Owen Bertram indeed had confidence on his end. Although he wasn’t good at alchemy, it didn’t matter; he had Alexia! He communicated with Alexia through the Communication Talisman. Alexia solved the problems while snacking.

If you asked Alexia what alchemy was, she would guarantee a blank expression: ’I have no idea.’ But when the problems were presented, she just knew the answers!

The National Master thought Owen Bertram was unscrupulous, as this duel had essentially become a showdown between the two of them. Did he think she was afraid of him?

In the blink of an eye, they had gone through twenty problems. At this point, the difficulty of the questions made even the National Master furrow her eyebrows and ponder for a moment before providing the answers. However, Owen Bertram still provided the answers as soon as the questions appeared.

Creak Creak Creak...

North Pool Shore’s side continued to sink. With their answer to the thirtieth question, their pace slowed considerably, leaving Edgar’s side taking the lead with a whopping five-question advantage! North Pool Shore’s remaining tray was only five feet away from the True Dragon Treasure Flame, and he could already feel the terrifying heat from the Tire-8 Pure Fire beneath him.

Nevertheless, the National Master remained calm and collected, with a state of mind that was hard to surpass. While she considered Owen Bertram a once-in-a-generation prodigy, she was also a once-in-10,000-years genius from Sang Island. She didn’t believe she would lose to Owen Bertram. She thought Owen Bertram took the lead only because the previous questions coincidentally happened to be his forte. However, she believed that his luck would eventually run out, and he would also encounter problems that would require him to ponder and crack. And that would be her chance to catch up.

But what she didn’t know was that she was dealing with Alexia, who didn’t play by the rules...

The alchemy problems flashed rapidly, and Edgar answered them according to Owen Bertram’s provided solutions. Every time, he got the answer right. Finally, when Edgar answered the forty-second question, the scale creaked, and amidst a series of gasps, North Pool Shore fell into the True Dragon Treasure Flame.

Whoosh—

Flames surged, and North Pool Shore’s miserable scream turned into a pile of ashes. On the giant flying ship, all Sangdao Monks were left speechless.
