Legend of Wyatt

Wyatt Barnes is not a fool.

When the Thirteen Prince, ’Crue Dragonsmith’, opened his mouth to the Emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, saying he wanted to exchange the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, Wyatt realized that Crue Dragonsmith was trying to secure a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace for him.

"Brother Barnes, there is still some time left before the ’Desolate Territory Event’... My mind is set, you need not persuade me further."

Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, Crue Dragonsmith shook his head lightly, simultaneously looking at his father, the Emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, ’Leif Dragonsmith’. He said in a clear voice, "Father, my mind is set, so please exchange the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace for me."

"Since your mind is set, I will fulfill your wish!"

After gaining Crue Dragonsmith’s confirmation, Leif Dragonsmith didn’t say much more, and directly agreed.

Originally, he was quite reluctant to grant a Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact to his son. He had previously announced he would bestow the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact as a reward to the prince behind the young powerful individual who achieves ’the Prince’s First’ title.

As the Emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, once his words were spoken, it wouldn’t do to take them back.

And now, upon hearing that Crue Dragonsmith wanted him to exchange the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, he was naturally very happy.

To him, although a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace is precious, it is far inferior to a Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact.

The most important thing is that a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace is just an ornament in the hands of the Imperial Family of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, serving no real purpose.

While a Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact is entirely different.

Now, it wasn’t just that his son wanted to exchange the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace; even if his son wanted to exchange it for two Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnaces, he would agree without hesitation.

With Leif Dragonsmith speaking up, the matter was settled.

The Thirteen Prince ’Crue Dragonsmith’ proactively proposed to exchange the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact, which was supposed to be his reward as a prince’s first, for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace.

Following Leif Dragonsmith’s words, the Glory Palace erupted in another commotion:

"Oh my! The Thirteen Prince... actually exchanged the Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact reward for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace?"

"I thought he was just saying it casually, and he would change his mind when His Majesty asked him... but I didn’t expect that he indeed confirmed exchanging that Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace."

"I really don’t understand what he’s thinking... a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace seems useless to him, doesn’t it?"

"Could it be that he wants to use a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace to attract a ’Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master’ to serve him?"

"Are you overthinking? A Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master is such a high-status existence... Can a mere Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace attract a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master?"

"Exactly! Even a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master who has just acquired Top-grade Immortal Fire and become a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master wouldn’t serve anyone for just a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace. It’s too easy for a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master to acquire a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace."

...

The people in the Glory Palace could not comprehend the actions of the Thirteen Prince ’Crue Dragonsmith’, thinking only that Crue Dragonsmith must be crazy to make such a decision.

From the beginning to the end, no one believed that Crue Dragonsmith wanted the Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master’s pill furnace because of a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master.

Because, in their view, even if Crue Dragonsmith obtained a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, he still couldn’t attract a Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Master, no matter how many Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnaces he had.

If they were Top-grade Alchemy Immortal Masters, they would at least join one of the three great immortal sects of the Desolate Territory, and hold titles such as ’Honorary Minister Elder’ or ’Honorary Minister Sacrificial Officer’.

By that time, if they still didn’t have a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, the three great immortal sects of the Desolate Territory would gladly present them with one.

In their eyes, a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace is still somewhat precious, but in the three great immortal sects of the Desolate Territory, it amounts to nothing at all.

"Incomprehensible... Incomprehensible..."

"Hmph! What foolishness... Does he think he can curry favor with Father by doing this and get a chance to vie for the throne? Childish!"

Currently, both the Fourth Prince Judson Dragonsmith and the Seventh Prince Kye Dragonsmith believe their Thirteenth Brother is too foolish.

However, even though they think their Thirteenth Brother is foolish, they have never intended to remind him, and even feel a bit gleeful about it.

"What does he need a Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace for?"

If there is anyone still clear-minded in the hall, it would be the Third Miss of the Campbell Family, ’Annie Campbell’. Annie Campbell is watching Crue Dragonsmith intently, her eyes full of doubt.

With her understanding of the Thirteen Prince, she knows he isn’t the type to act recklessly and impulsively, and logically wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.

"Could it be... he has some use for the Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace?"

Thinking carefully, Annie Campbell can’t come up with an explanation, but subconsciously believes that the Thirteen Prince must have a reason for his actions.

The Thirteen Prince ’Crue Dragonsmith’, facing the questioning gazes around him, is in a state of clarity amidst a drunk crowd.

He naturally knows that he is at a disadvantage by doing this.

But, he does not regret it.

First, he had previously promised Wyatt Barnes to find him a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, but he failed to deliver, so he could only make up for it in this way.

Secondly, regardless of whether he promised Wyatt Barnes before that he would find him a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, just to further strengthen his relationship with Wyatt Barnes, he had to do this.

In his opinion:

A Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact to further improve relations with Wyatt Barnes is well worth it.

"This Third Brother..."

Wyatt naturally could guess some of the thoughts of Crue Dragonsmith, but even so, he still had to accept this favor from Crue Dragonsmith.

However, it was just as Crue Dragonsmith had said.

Now there was still some time before the Desolate Territory Competition, and even if he could obtain a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace later, he would still have to wait for some time, unless he went to the Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect now and revealed his identity as a ’top-grade alchemy Immortal Master.’

"Perhaps... I chose the wrong path from the start. I really don’t need to participate in today’s selection, nor do I need to join the Desolate Territory Competition."

Suddenly, a light flashed in Wyatt Barnes’ mind:

"Even if I don’t participate in today’s selection, I can rely on my identity as a ’top-grade alchemy Immortal Master’ to directly join the Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect... As long as I speak up, I can not only obtain a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, but even nine out of ten, the Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect would be willing to give me a few Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts."

"Moreover, wanting to enter the ’small world’ left by the Immortal King to fulfill the agreement with Brother Patel is not difficult."

Of course, the reason he hadn’t thought so much at first was because Wyatt Barnes hadn’t expected to become a ’top-grade alchemy Immortal Master’ in such a short time.

"Forget it... Since I have chosen the path of the Desolate Territory Competition, let’s continue down this road. Anyway, now that I have the top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, I can officially begin refining top-grade Immortal Pills."

Thinking of this, Wyatt Barnes felt at ease and stopped thinking too much about it.

As Leif Dragonsmith, the Emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, spoke, the selection continued, and after the first prince, the ’First of the Palace’ was quickly determined as well.

The First of the Palace was seized by a young expert from a palace called ’Sky Song Palace,’ and this young expert was also today’s strongest Golden Immortal under a hundred years old who appeared on the scene.

However, compared to ’Pole Wind,’ he was still far outclassed.

"Damn it! Had I known the Third Brother had such a ’trump card,’ I wouldn’t have lent Pole Wind to the Seventh Prince... Now it’s great, I didn’t secure the first prince, and the first palace was also lost."

The lord of the Kingston Majestic Royal Palace, a middle-aged man with a full beard, looked as if his face was so dark it could drip water at this moment.

He had initially lent Pole Wind to the Seventh Prince, hoping Pole Wind would help the Seventh Prince seize the ’first prince’ in this selection, to build a good relationship with the Seventh Prince.

Now that Pole Wind didn’t seize the first prince, his plan to build a good relationship with the Seventh Prince naturally fell through.

But the problem was, Pole Wind, who could have secured the ’First of the Palace’ for their Kingston Majestic Royal Palace, lost the qualification to help them compete for the first palace because he went to the Seventh Prince’s side.

This made him feel extremely depressed and aggrieved.

With the ’first prince’ and ’first palace’ successively decided, today’s selection quickly came to an end.

Before leaving Glory Palace, the Third Brother ’Crue Dragonsmith’ obtained the top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace and immediately handed it over to Wyatt Barnes.

"Thank you, Third Brother."

Wyatt Barnes accepted the top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace without hesitation, as it was indeed what he needed at the moment.

After obtaining the top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, Wyatt Barnes had no desire to stay on at Glory Palace and only wanted to return to the Third Brother’s pavilion to attempt refining top-grade Immortal Pills as quickly as possible.

However, before leaving, someone stopped him.

"So, the Third Brother exchanged a Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact for a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace for you."

The one who stopped Wyatt Barnes and his group was none other than Annie Campbell, the third young miss of the Campbell Family, and Annie Campbell stood alone in the path of Wyatt Barnes and his group.

When Annie Campbell spoke, her eyes were fixed intently on Wyatt Barnes.

"Are you so focused on me because, like your sister, you have a special hobby and want to take me back to the Campbell Family, or even take me back to the Thousand Spider Celestial Sect to be your ’male pet’?"

Wyatt Barnes gave Annie Campbell a deep, meaningful look and asked.

"Pah!"

The originally serious Annie Campbell was infuriated, her face turning red upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, and she gave him a hard glare.

"A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory!"

After angrily snapping, Annie Campbell looked at Wyatt Barnes and said, "Wyatt Barnes, after the Desolate Territory Competition, I hope you consider joining the Thousand Spider Celestial Sect."

Annie Campbell immediately attempted to poach talent from the Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect.
