“To anyone who wants to take the sword, step forward and take it!”

Leander’s gaze swept across the four century–old King Phase masters. His eyes carried open dominance and cold battle intent as he held the broken sword upright before his chest.

“I know all of you want this sword. Now that it is in my hands, the rules are simple!

“Whoever defeats me gets the sword!”

The auction hall instantly fell into silence as countless shocked gazes turned toward Leander.

Everyone knew how powerful Leander was. His battle against an entire army in the Middle East had already shaken the world. No one doubted his strength, yet no one expected him to say something like this directly in front of four century–old King Phase

masters.

Anyone who could defeat him would claim the sword. Those words were effectively an open challenge to all four masters at once. With a single statement, he had offended four of the most powerful figures alive.

Originally, the four King Phase masters might not have wanted to openly clash with Leander and completely sever relations. But now that Leander had spoken those words in front of fellow Astrian martial artists, silence would mean fear. Even if unwilling, they were now forced to respond.

Claire showed a gentle expression and lightly shook her head.

“His temperament really has not changed.”

She was no longer surprised.

Back at Southern Shore, Leander had faced every Transcendent Realm expert from both the Arbitration Office and the War God Sanctum alone. That blazing scene remained vivid in her memory.

The only difference now was that his opponents had become four far more terrifying King Phase masters.

Violet, however, frowned slightly.

From the energy domains surrounding the four King Phase masters, their Primordial Energy had already reached complete unity between thought and power. Even her own master would stand only on equal footing with them.

That meant four opponents equal to her master.

Yet Leander openly invited all four to attack at once. In doing so, he had instantly made four overwhelming enemies. She could not help but doubt whether Leander truly possessed the confidence to face all four simultaneously.

Julian had witnessed Leander eliminate the Twin Ghosts of Blightwood alone and understood how strong he was. Still, seeing Leander deliberately draw all the hostility toward himself filled him with both gratitude and worry.

The broken sword originally belonged to the Lowell family. Handing it to Leander in front of four King Phase masters had already caused dissatisfaction. The Lowell family could easily have become their target.

But by stepping forward now and drawing all attention onto himself, Leander had effectively shielded the Lowell family from retaliation.

Julian was grateful.

Yet facing four century–old King Phase masters alone was another matter entirely. Even someone as powerful as Leander faced danger far greater than confronting an army.

Leonard’s eyes turned icy as he stepped forward.

“Jeff, you truly are arrogant!”

A single step caused the space at Leander’s left side to freeze into an icy blue domain.

“You are forcing my hand!”

Eldon extended his withered hands from his sleeves. Gray energy surged forward, pressing toward Leander’s rear left side, ready to

strike at any moment.

Wilbur’s expression darkened as crimson energy formed a solid barrier, sealing off Leander’s rear right side.

Aciel still wore a calm smile, refined and composed, yet as he stepped forward, violet energy waves covered Leander’s front right

side.

Four streams of energy formed impenetrable walls, sealing every direction around Leander. The four King Phase masters clearly intended to trap him and prevent him from leaving with the sword.

Leander stood confined within an area smaller than four square feet.

Yet within that space, none of the surrounding energy could touch him in the slightest.

His expression remained relaxed as he shook his head with a faint laugh.

“If you are going to attack, then do it properly. Do you really think tricks like this can hurt me?”

As his words fell, a blue light flashed deep within his eyes.

A sharp, explosive sound suddenly tore through the air.

Brilliant blue light erupted beneath Leander’s feet. A force sharper and heavier than the combined pressure of the touring Dave masters exploded outward like starlight bursting through the night sky.

Everyone present possessed cultivation above the Martial Sovereign level and could see clearly in the darkness, yet at that moment, all they saw was dazzling starlight filling their vision.

“Hm?”

The instant the starlight erupted, the four King Phase masters and even Julian froze.

The energy net formed jointly by Leonard, Eldon, Wilbur, and Aciel collapsed under the seattering starlight. A shockwave burst outward from the center, violently tearing their combined suppression apart.

All four century–old King Phase masters were forced backward simultaneously.

Each retreated three full steps.

As the light faded, many Transcendent Realm experts, including Violet and Claire, finally saw clearly what had happened,

Every one of them was shaken beyond words.

The four masters‘ combined barrier had been as solid as reinforced steel, something even heavy tank artillery would require sustained bombardment to break through.

Yet Leander had shattered it with a single strike.

Compared to the crowd’s shock, the four King Phase masters themselves felt even greater disbelief.

They could not comprehend how Leander had dismantled their joint suppression instantly and forced each of them back three

steps.

For the first time, grave expressions appeared on their faces.
