214 Chapter 214:- Southern Region War [III]; Begining
Millions of troops approached the central plain from the north and the south direction. From both directions, more than ten thousand Wyverns toward the battlefield. There were 10 soldiers sitting on the Wyvern’s back.
Each wyvern was 10 meters big in size. The Wyverns belonging to the Southern Fire Dragon Empire had Black Skin while the Wyverns belonging to the Northern Frost Dragon Empire had White skin. The Wyverns were powerful 3rd-order powerhouses. In fact, some of the Peak 3rd-order Wyverns had the power to even defeat beginner 4th-order mages.
In the entire Dying Isle continent, the southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire, are the only two Empires that breed Wyverns and use Wyverns to fight. No one knew how both Dragon Empires were able to tame Wyverns and breed them. The secret was never shared with anyone. Not even to the closest friends of both Empires.
Aditya can control any dragon species whether Wyvern or Leviathan with his Divine Crimson Dragon Bloodline. The Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire use a secret technique to make the Wyverns submit to them.
In fact, if one looked closely enough then one would see black and white collars around the Wyvern’s neck. The Wyverns are one of the strongest Dragon species that were being treated like mounts. Such things can only be found in The Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire. The collars had some strange runes drawn on them. The collars were made from a special metal.
“Sir Lucas, can you please give us an explanation?” The commanders of both Ageless Islands and the Storm Empire looked at the sky in deep shock.
Lucas did not reply. He looked at the sky with a smile. “So His Majesty has decided to send the Wyverns in this battle.”
“These black Wyverns are raised by our Empire. Don’t worry, these Wyverns won’t attack us. Now let’s not waste any more time.” Under Lucas’s command, the army of millions began to charge. This time, their marching speed was much faster than before.

“These Wyverns look a bit different from the Wyverns that we have in our Istarin empire.” Although the sizes of the Wyverns were bigger than most Wyverns that Aditya bought from the wild, these Wyverns looked weaker than the wild Wyverns. Wyverns had this powerful Aura around them. Wyverns are arrogant, proud, and strong by nature as they possess dragon bloodlines in them. But these Wyverns lacked the very thing that made others fear Wyverns.
“This may be because these Wyverns are being suppressed.” Even Aditya wasn’t sure. But from what he can tell these Wyverns lacked the very essence that linked them with Dragons.
Looking at those Wyverns that covered the sky, Watson couldn’t help but frown. “Your Majesty, I feel both Dragon Empires have too many secrets. I wonder what other thing both Dragon Empires are hiding.”
“Let’s observe the battle for now.” Aditya was hoping that both Dragon Kings would fight in this war. He also hoped that both sides would fight using their full power without holding back anything. But Aditya knew this was very unlikely to happen. But if it did happen, it will be beneficial for the Istarin Empire. Just like Aditya, others who also had similar intentions also hoped that both sides would use their full power in this fight. Once that happens, it would become very easy to take over both Dragon Empires.

Around 5 minutes later, even before millions of troops from both sides could come facing, all the 5th-order cultivators from both sides had come facing each other. Both the Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Fire Empire had sent 5 of their 5th-order cultivators. Right now 10 strongest cultivators who stood at the very top of the continent had gathered here.
“Lucas, we meet again. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Today, you’re going to die under my foot.” The one who spoke was Albert, one of the White Dragon King’s sons. Albert had Lucas both were of the same age. Albert was a few years older than Lucas.
Lucas arrogantly folded his arms on his chest while looking at Albert with a smirk. “Albert, what a surprise. And here I thought that my dear cousin had died from the beating that I gave him last time.”
Lucas’s mocking words had turned Albert’s face red from anger. Albert couldn’t wait to kill this bastard.
“Lucas, you bastard, I will kill you.”
“Now, that’s some harsh words. I can’t believe my own cousin is saying these words to me.” Lucas pretended to look sad. Seeing this, Albert felt even more humiliated.
“Sir Lucas, have you met this man before?” The commander of the Ageless island asked while staring at Albert.
Albert was a young man who was 37 years old. Albert was 6 feet 5 inches tall. Albert had a slim muscular body. He had white pale skin which made some mistakenly think that Albert was a vampire but in reality, Albert was a Frost dragon which made his skin pale. The son of the White Dragon King had white snow hair. Albert kept his beard which made him look very handsome. Just like Lucas Albert was a beginner 5th-order cultivator. Albert was wearing a white full-sleeved robe that had the face of the white dragon on its back.
Lucas looked at Albert with a mocking smile. “Every 25 years, a tournament is held by the all Kingdoms, Dynasties, and Empires of the Southern region. In this tournament cultivators who are 25 years old or younger are allowed to join to fight for the title of the youngest genius of the southern region. The Winner of the competition is given 10 million royal gold coins, 1 ton of mana stones, and other cultivation resources which are decided by the Kings and emperors.”
“12 years back, I had the opportunity to fight my dear cousin Albert. At that time, both of us were Peak 3rd-order cultivators. Both of us fought in the finals. Although my cousin is stronger, as the son of Black Dragon King, I was stronger. In the end, I kind of overdid it and ended up sending my cousin to coma.” In reality, it was the no kill rule of the tournament kept Albert alive to this day. In fact, Lucas would have killed Albert if he wasn’t stopped by a the 5th-order referee.
The more Albert listened the more anger he looked. In fact, right now his entire body was trembling as he looked at Lucas. The temperature around Albert was rapidly falling. Cold mist was coming out of his body.
“I still remember that pleading face of yours. You were begging me to stop beating you. Hahaha!” Even though Lucas mercilessly kept beating Albert, he never begged anyone. Albert rather die than beg. As dragon, Albert and Lucas both had immense prides. Both of them were born arrogant and always has looked down on others. While Lucas was able to hide it, Albert couldn’t hide his disdain gaze.
“Shut up!!!!!!!!!!!” With a loud roar, the Aura of beginner 5th-order was released from Albert’s body. Without caring about anything, Albert charged Lucas with the intention of killing him.
Seeing this Lucas smiled. Lucas purposely provoked Albert so that he would attack him first. Seeing Lucas also charging at Albert, others also moved. Both Peak 5th-order commanders who belonged to both Dragon empires started fighting each other. The commanders of the Ageless Island and the Mist Ocean charged at each other. At the same time, the commanders of the Storm Empire and the Cloud Earth Empire also started fighting.
The southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost dragon Empire both had sent two Mid-5th-order cultivators. The job of both cultivators is to keep both princes alive. So both 5th-order cultivators did not start fighting immediately. Instead, both looked at Lucas and Albert for a second before turning their attention to each other.
“Albert, do you know that you’re a loser? Without your royal family, you are nothing.” Even after the battle started, Lucas kept on mocking Albert so that the Frost Dragon would make an irrational decision that would give Lucas the opportunity that he needs. Both Lucas’s and Albert’s powers are equal.
“Shut up. You piece of shit.” Albert started to condense his mana in his mouth. He then took a deep breath and released a beam of blue light from his mouth.
“Hmph! Your pathetic attacks are of no use.” Lucas also did the same and released a golden beam of light.
Boooom!!!
Both attacks collided before exploding. The explosion had caused black smoke to appear which temporarily hide both Lucas and Albert’s figures. However, both beginner 5th-order cultivators were more than strong enough to sense each other’s location and continue fighting even when their visions are blinded by the black smoke.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
Metal clinging sounds were heard from the sky. All the 5th-order cultivators were engaged in fierce life and death battles.
