Chapter 3329
The First Heir
For a god-tier sword practitioner to die of serious injuries, it went to show how ridiculously powerful his
enemy must be. That opponent must surely be a god-tier too!
âMany forces have been keeping an eye on the sword tomb ever since its inception, and now the sword
coercion surrounding it is slowly fading. We must quickly take the lead before it completely dissipates.â
âThe briefing is over. Letâs start the combat assignment.â
Elder Whitmore turned off the projection behind him, took a sip of water, and continued, âI, the alliance
master, Philip, and Mr. Carter Marsden sent by the royal family will form the first team. Weâll be located
in the center of the main troops to conduct the battlefield commandâ¦â
âThe second teamâ¦â
Philip did not pay attention to the details but narrowed his eyes at the man sitting opposite him.
He was wearing a tight-fitting silver combat uniform with a metallic luster, looking extraordinary at first
glance. His face was quite handsome too.
When he realized that Philip was staring at him, Carter smiled, and his gaze sharpened.
Seeing that the other party had a certain degree of hostility toward him, Philip did not back down and
stared back at him with a slight smile in the corner of his eyes.
âThis is the end of the combat meeting. Everyone will gather in the central square this afternoon. Bring
your equipment along, and the consumables will be provided by the alliance.â
Elder Whitmore placed his hands on the table and said to everyone.
Everyone quickly left, except for the four members of the first team.
âIâm tired.â Elder Whitmore was first to break the awkward silence.
Claire looked back and forth between Philip and Carter, who were staring daggers at each other.
She whispered, âAre you going to fight it out?â
Hearing Claireâs nonchalance, Philip rolled his eyes at her and said, âIâm not interested in fighting a boy
toy.â
Carter slapped the table and stood up while shouting, âWho are you talking about, you low-class
citizen?! Claire and I are childhood sweethearts. If you dare harbor any thoughts about her, Iâll skin you
alive and break every bone in your body!â
âOh? What thoughts should I harbor about her?â Philip propped his chin on his fists and said with a
cheeky smile.
Next to him, Claire went red as she called Philip a creep under her breath.
âYou! How dare you?!â
Seven rays of light glowed behind Carterâs body.
A seven-star talent!
His aura was stronger than any seven-star practitioners Philip had ever met before. It seemed that he
was not easy to deal with, so Philipâs gaze became serious.
âDonât fight here. I have to pay for the repairs if the meeting room is destroyed!â
As he spoke, Elder Whitmore held back the red-eyed Carter.
Carter was furious at being held back. He flung his hands, opened the door, and marched out.
âSo thatâs your little boyfriend?â Philip tilted his head and asked the flushed Claire with a smile.
Claire hurriedly waved her hands and said, âHe and I were just playmates when we were young. â
Seeing the good relationship between the two in just a couple of days, Elder Whitmore laughed and
said, âLetâs go to the cafeteria. Lunch should be ready.â
The three walked out of the meeting room.
Philip suddenly thought of something and said to Claire next to him, âAre you the alliance master of
Montana Alliance?â
âWhat? Donât I look the part?â Claire pouted.
Looking at Claire, who had just come of age, Philip replied with a face full of disbelief, âYeah, definitely
not.â
Claire slowed down and became depressed.
Her voice also became lower as she said, âMy father was the previous alliance master of Montana
Alliance, but not long after its establishment, he died on the battlefield.â
Philip was startled and said, âIâm sorry to have reminded you of something sad.â
âItâs okay. I heard from the others that my father was a very hardworking and imposing alliance master
during his time, and his every action could inspire everyone. I want to lead Montana Alliance like that
too!â
Claire wiped her tears, and her gaze seemed more determined as she looked at the busy members of
Montana Alliance around.
âThe previous alliance master entrusted her to me before he died and asked me to help her become a
qualified alliance master. The alliance master is also working very hard to become stronger, and she
can already take charge of many things.â
With a kind smile, Elder Whitmore looked at Claire, who was walking in front, and said to Philip, who
was beside him.
After a simple lunch, everyone had just assembled in the square when a surprising figure landed
steadily beside Elder Whitmore from a hover car.
What an imposing demeanor and fearsome strength!
