It would be a blatant lie if Emery said he had it easy. In fact, the previous fight could be considered one of the most difficult duels he had ever fought.

It took Zetto a minute before he was able to get to his feet again. He sharply stared at Emery, as if he was ready for another round. But in the end, he only snorted in anger, before turning around and walking out of the arena.

[Rank 10 Emery Ambrose (9)]

Even though he had somewhat expected it, Emery did not imagine it would be this hard to reach the top ten rankings. After all, his body had undergone such a tremendous upgrade at Ouroboros, while his spirit force had reached rank 9.

Once again, he was reminded that these top 10 were the top talents from ten thousand acolytes selected from thousands of planets. They were the best of the best of the generation.

The crowd cheered and applauded loudly for such a great fight. It was only at this moment that Emery realized the arena stands were actually almost filled to the brim by people. It was quite a rare sight, as Hyperion was after all a restricted place to outsiders.

Among those seen in the stands, Emery once more noticed the Dragon bloodline protege, Zach, who still seemed to be watching him with rapt attention.

Once again, Emery's fighting spirit burned like a blazing fire. Rank 10 was simply not enough. He wanted to climb higher on the leaderboard. At least, he had to defeat that prodigal young dragon.
