Chapter 819: Luck
"Defeated?"
The gathered Sacred Monarchs and Heavenly Emperors were slightly surprised as they saw Emperor Ara being teleported out from the Supreme Ladder. But shortly after, they each revealed expressions of realization that the situation made sense.
"The ninety-third step is equivalent to the level of a top-tier Sacred Monarch. Emperor Ara is, after all, merely a Tyrant. Even though he's armed with divine weapon configurations far beyond his rank due to the Ten Thousand Tributes Dominion War, his defeat is only to be expected."
"Looking at Tyrants across the eras, Emperor Ara has already performed quite well."
"Clearly, Emperor Ara was provoked by Yao Ji and Li Pin and overestimated his strength, leading to such a dismal outcome. Judging by his wretched state, it seems he was killed by the simulated Sacred Monarch on the ninety-third step. Who knows if this will dampen his spirit and affect his performance in the upcoming Ten Thousand Tribes Dominion War?
"Realistically, had he advanced steadily, he would've had a decent chance at clearing the ninety-second step. What a shame."
As the Sacred Monarchs and Heavenly Emperors spoke, regret was written all over their faces. Among them, a few Sacred Monarchs even harbored a trace of epicaricacy.
He just had to challenge the ninety-third step of the Supreme Ladder? That step corresponded to the level of a top-tier Sacred Monarch.
Did he truly believe these Sacred Monarchs amounted to nothing, that any random Tyrant could defy fate and leap across several tiers to challenge them?
Now he ought to know better.
Of course, they concealed their epicaricacy well, showing not the slightest hint on their faces, lest they offend this young prodigy with immense potential.
With a flash, Gu You appeared beside Emperor Ara with a hint of concern in his eyes. "Junior Brother."
