Supreme Emptiness

How to see?

With your eyes!

Who dares to mention killing young human clan members to establish prestige?

If word gets out, it would truly become a joke.

If it's about killing a Sect Master of the Nine-Sect or a Supreme Elder.

That indeed would be something worth talking about.

But killing a youngster...

At this moment.

Among the Five Demon Kings, the Sky-Devouring Tiger spoke:

"Demon Emperor, let the youngsters handle the matter of youngsters."

"Since receiving notice of the Beihai Demon Clan's visit, the youngsters have been diligently training, determined to erase the humiliation of ten years ago."

"Right now, they need a sparring opponent they can fully engage with."

"Why not let Jiang Fan be this sparring partner? If he's injured, it doesn't matter, but if he's killed, it would be a vindication for our Demon Race."

Upon hearing this.

The eyes of many demon race experts brightened.

One Demon King nodded slightly: "Good idea."

"Since we cannot kill young human clan members, it should be no problem for our youngsters to kill him, right?"

Another Demon King agreed:

"Demon Emperor, the Beihai Demon Clan has always looked down on us, the Land Demon Clan."

"Ten years ago, several powerful youngsters in their visiting group defeated our youngsters without challenge."

"Since then, they have even more disdain for us."

"So much so that the Beihai Demon Clan unilaterally halted the exchange study between the two demon clans."

"This is our chance to vindicate ourselves, we must not miss it."

"Jiang Fan is a human, using spells. Having our youngsters spar with him would increase their adaptability and perhaps enhance their chances in this battle."

The Demon Emperor's already greenish face became even more ashen.

The Beihai Demon Clan is a sea demon clan.

Although also called the Demon Clan, they are a different group from the Land Demon Clan.

A thousand years ago, during a great war.

Under the mediation of the sages from both clans, they formed a solid alliance.

Their exchanges were very frequent.

One of the exchanges was sending outstanding members to study within the opposite clan.

Due to time, distance, and other factors.

These exchanges gradually decreased.

In the past century.

The only remaining exchange is the fixed, once-a-decade study exchange.

However, ten years ago, something humiliating happened to the demon clan.

The visiting prodigies from the Beihai Demon Clan proposed a competition with the prodigies of the Land Demon Clan.

The Demon Emperor agreed on the spot.

But the result shocked both the Demon Emperor and all the strong demon clan members present.

The Beihai Demon Clan, having experienced some profound fortune, had an outpouring of geniuses.

Each one was like a mythic prodigy.

The prodigies nurtured with great effort by the Land Demon Clan all faced complete defeat.

The best performance was.

The strongest prodigy of the Land Demon Clan barely lasted three moves in the hands of the opponent before being defeated.

The others couldn't even withstand a single strike.

The Beihai Demon Clan, disappointed, announced that the Land Demon Clan was not worth their prodigies' time for further study.

The exchange meeting was suspended.

Ten years later, they would send another batch of prodigies.

If the Land Demon Clan remained as weak, the exchange study between the young generations of both clans would be completely terminated.

The Demon Emperor had just taken control of the Land Demon Clan at that time.

Such conduct was a slap in the face.

So, the Demon Emperor had been holding back his anger, diligently nurturing young demon clan members.

Now, the battle between humans and demons was in full swing.

The young generation of humans had all emerged, but not a single young demon had appeared.

Why?

Because they were being nurtured.

Not wanting their time or lives to be wasted in the battles between the two races.

Their goal was to defeat the visiting prodigies from the Beihai Demon Clan, to vindicate the demon race, and restore the Demon Emperor's face.

Now.

The ten-year period was near.

A month ago, the Beihai Demon Clan had already sent a message.

The visiting group was already on their way.

They could arrive at the Demon Emperor Court at any time.

The younger generation of the clan was making final preparations.

Returning to the present.

The Demon Emperor, watching Jiang Fan, thought that letting Jiang Fan be a sparring partner might not be a bad idea.

"Yun Xia, what do you think?"

He needed to listen to the opinions of his subordinates.

The opinion of a close confidante needed even more consideration.

Concubine Yunxia glanced at Jiang Fan and shook her head slightly:

"I think this may not be a good idea."

Several Demon Kings looked puzzled.

The Demon Emperor, too, inquired with a surprised look: "Why not?"

Concubine Yunxia said: "Except for the Four Outstanding Heroes of the demon clan, none of the other youngsters are Jiang Fan's match."

"Using Jiang Fan as a sparring partner, I worry they won't be able to handle it."

Uh—

Many demon clan experts looked at each other in astonishment.

The demon clan's elites of the past decade were brilliant, far surpassing those of the human clan.

Jiang Fan was only at the Second Level of Core Formation, wasn't he?

The number of demon clan elites stronger than Jiang Fan had to be at least in the hundreds, right?

Why would Concubine Yunxia say such a thing?

One Demon King said: "Concubine Yunxia, our contemporary youngsters are exceptionally talented, far surpassing us in our days."

"How could they lose to a mere human clan youngster at the Second Level of Core Formation?"

"Such words seem to undermine our own prestige and boost the enemy's morale!"

Except for the Sea Charm.

The other Demon Kings also showed disbelief.

If Jiang Fan were at the Fifth Level of Core Formation, they might reluctantly believe such words.

But only at the Second Level, how could the demon clan's youngsters not handle sparring with him?

The Demon Emperor's eyes flickered: "Yunxia, isn't this statement a bit exaggerated?"

Concubine Yunxia said: "I am speaking the truth."

"Apart from the Four Outstanding Heroes of the demon clan, it's best not to have Jiang Fan as a sparring partner."

"To avoid damaging their mindsets."

She smiled bitterly in secret.

Having exchanged blows with Jiang Fan countless times, did she not know Jiang Fan's prowess?

Even she had suffered greatly.

What about the youngsters of the demon clan?

Saying apart from the Four Outstanding Heroes was her conservative statement to save face for the demon clan.

If the Four Outstanding Heroes of the demon clan and Jiang Fan were to fight freely.

She didn't think the Four Outstanding Heroes stood much chance of winning.

Upon hearing this.

Many demon clan experts were upset.

Concubine Yunxia was belittling their own, while elevating Jiang Fan, wasn't she?

Who praised the opponent like this?

"Since that's the case, why not call a few youngsters to spar with Jiang Fan and see?"

The Demon Emperor, too, didn't quite believe Jiang Fan possessed such ability.

He nodded slightly: "Summon the Ten Stars of the Demon Clan!"

Upon hearing this.

The Sea Charm Demon King's eyes flickered, and she bowed:

"Demon Emperor, starting with the Ten Stars might be too dangerous."

"If they seriously injure or kill Jiang Fan, the other youngsters won't have a chance to spar."

She believed in Jiang Fan's strength.

But didn't believe Jiang Fan could match the Ten Stars of the demon clan.

What are the Ten Stars of the demon clan?

New stars of the demon clan to avenge the humiliation of a decade ago.

Each one was personally trained by one of the Four Great Demon Kings.

Even the Demon Emperor occasionally provided personal guidance.

Their lowest strength was at the Fifth Level of Core Formation, and the highest might even reach the Sixth Level!

How could Jiang Fan easily handle that?

He might even perish at their hands.

"Sea Charm Demon King, you're mistaken."

The Demon King who initially suggested said: "Concubine Yunxia clearly stated."

"Other than the Four Outstanding Heroes, no one fits to spar with Jiang Fan."

"Calling the Ten Stars of the demon clan is just right, isn't it?"

The Sea Charm Demon King wanted to plead further.

But noticed Jiang Fan subtly signaled her to stop.

If she continued, the Demon Emperor might become suspicious of their relationship.

Jiang Fan perishing here was one thing, dragging the Sea Charm into it wasn't necessary.

The Sea Charm Demon King's eyes showed reluctance.

But realizing that her pleas would be futile and might expose her connection with Jiang Fan.

Which would not only harm her but also leave Jiang Fan with no escape.

She sighed slightly: "Alright."

"I just have faith in Concubine Yunxia's judgment."

"I don't want the Ten Stars to get hurt."

Injured?

These words caused a burst of laughter.

A human capable of injuring the Ten Stars didn't exist!
