Chapter 90: The battle begins Ethan asked, "Who is the leader of the Generation of Chaos?" Remond replied, "The leader is Neo Astralith. He comes from the direct bloodline of the Grand Supreme. You will see him here,he’s also the supreme commander of this battlefield." Ethan nodded thoughtfully. He then spread his mental domain. With the power of his clone body, he could only cover the human side of the battlefield,not the enemy side. Suddenly, his mental senses picked up an enormous power fluctuation. It was equivalent to nearly 100 Earths. "This must be Neo Astralith, the leader of the Generation of Chaos," Ethan thought. "Worthy to be called an Astralith." Ethan sat down in a corner, quietly planning for the upcoming battle. Should he make his 29 clones play the battlesong? He shook his head slightly. No, not this time. He didn’t want to enter the battlefield late like before, just to look cool. This time, he wanted to join from the very beginning. 20 minutes later A deep voice echoed in everyone’s mind like thunder: "All warriors, ready for battle. March toward the battlefield." It was the command of Neo. Remond walked over to Ethan and said, "Let’s go, Mr. Hunt. It’s time we take our positions." The battle among the Planetary Realms was considered less deadly, mainly because most of the combatants were geniuses. Most battles ended in draws. Only a few died,usually those who weren’t core members and came from B-level or A-level contracted civilizations. Ethan’s thirty clones began marching toward the battlefield alongside everyone else. Ten minutes later They arrived at the battlefield. A massive warzone spread before them. Neo stood in a commanding position, overseeing the formation. Ethan didn’t hesitate. He went straight to the front lines with the others. As he took his position, Neo suddenly looked straight at him. And Ethan immediately sensed a deep hostility burning in Neo’s eyes. "What the heck? Did I steal your wife or something? We don’t even know each other. Why would you be so hostile?" Ethan kept his face calm, though his mind was full of sarcastic thoughts. Remond noticed the silent tension. Not just him,many others had also picked up on it. They could only smile wryly. What could they even say? Neo had always been the undisputed leader of the new generation of the Primordial Humans. Everyone always showered him with praise. He always heard that this time maybe him,Neo Astralith would become the next supreme. But Ethan had appeared out of nowhere,like a tidal wave and stole most of his fame. From the very beginning when he defeated all the enernal prodigies from the primordial tower to the battlefield of the vampire. Ethan’s path was created by changing the page of history again and again and he became a legend overnight. Everywhere Neo went, all he heard was one question: "How long will the Young Supreme take to surpass the leader?" Though Neo still held the official title, he was practically becoming a stepping stone for Ethan. No genius would tolerate that. Moreover people are even calling him "Young Supreme", what a grand title. He wanted that title for himself. Besides, back in the Primordial Tower, the Grand Supreme Odin,Neo’s ancestor had been defeated by Ethan in hand-to-hand combat. That loss had stung the Astralith bloodline deeply. So he despised Ethan with every fiber of his body. Remond leaned closer to Ethan and whispered, "Just ignore him, Mr. Hunt. He wasn’t like this before. But ever since you arrived... well, you know." Ethan raised a brow and said, "So he’s just a jealous brat, huh?" Remond’s mouth twitched. How could Ethan say that out loud like it was nothing? He glanced nervously at Neo, whose face was turning red with both embarrassment and fury. If the battle weren’t about to start, Neo might have already challenged Ethan to a personal duel just to prove himself and let everyone know who was the boss. Ethan shook his head and said, "Whatever. I’m not interested in a child’s story about looking for attention. Where are those Celestials?" Just as he said this, a massive aura surged from the opposite direction. Ethan’s mental domain had already covered the battlefield. He could feel one million of the strongest Planetary combatants marching in perfect synchronization. They moved as robots. Very precise and unified. The aura they were radiating,Ethan could tell that they were at least 1.5 times stronger than the average humans. Only the core human members could compare to them and even then, not equally. For instance, Neo, the commander of the Primordial Humans, had the strength of 100 Earths. But the Celestial leader, a handsome two-meter-tall young man, had 105 Earths worth of raw strength. On paper, the difference seemed small but in battle, this 5 Earth gap was a massive chasm. Neo didn’t stand a chance against this leader in a one on one combat,he would be crushed in a direct physical fight unless he had some hidden techniques. The Celestials were also very handsome and beautiful like the Vampires. But unlike the Vampires who radiated darkness and gloom, the Celestials radiated a blinding light. All Celestials were born with light elements. Some even had multiple elemental affinities. Remond explained, "The leader of the Origin Generation is called Cassian Thornevale, a direct descendant of the Thornevale bloodline from their Progenitor." Ethan nodded. It made sense. Most generation leaders were likely descendants of Progenitors. That was understandable, as the bloodline of the progenitor was extremely potent. Cassian let out a soft snort as he took his position,but the sound cracked like thunder across the field. He said, "Neo, you came here again just to lose? Have you no shame?" Leo replied calmly, "We were at a draw until the last battle. Don’t worry,we’ll win this one, and every battle after that." Cassian’s eyes narrowed with disdain. "You won’t taste victory ever again in your life,we will crush you pathetic humans in every battle from now on." Ethan,who had grown bored of the exchange between this two commander,suddenly yawned and asked, "Is there a ritual to start the battle? Why the hell are these guys wasting time with so much nonsense?" Remond looked a little awkward. "This has become their ritual before every battle. The real fight will start any moment now." Cassian turned his attention to Ethan and sneered, "You’ve got guts, boy. They call you the Young Supreme, and you think you actually deserve the title? You came straight here just after your breakthrough? What do you think we Celestials are?" Ethan yawned again. "Nothing much. Just some pesky bugs who like to make a lot of noise." The entire battlefield murmured in shock. Had he really just called the leader of the Origin Generation a bug? That took serious guts. Some humans started praising him out loud. They had always wanted to scold Cassian but never dared. Their leader was not good at scolding people. So they always had some regrets in their heart. Now Ethan had done it effortlessly. Even Neo felt oddly satisfied. But then he remembered Ethan was his rival and he immediately composed himself. Cassian’s face turned crimson with rage. Blinding light began pouring out of his body. Ethan looked surprised by this show and when Cassian saw the surprised look on Ethan,he felt a bit proud. This could be called his innate ability,he was known as the Son of Light. Whenever he felt extreme emotions, divine light poured out from his body. Ethan turned to Remond and asked with a straight face, "Look, he could be used as a bulb.The light he’s radiating is insane. If I captured him and placed him in a park or something, children would surely enjoy it. Don’t you think so?" Remond looked away instantly. Even he felt bad for Cassian at this point. The proud leader of the Origin generation of the Celestials was being humiliated so brutally. A light bulb? What dignity did the man even have left? Cassian let out a roar filled with rage. "Attack! Bring me the head of that bastard! If anyone can do it, I,Cassian Thornevale,will owe him ten times!" That was no small promise. If Cassian owed someone ten times, that person could easily become a powerhouse within the Celestial race. The Celestials responded instantly. They charged like lightning, moving at nearly the speed of light, all heading for Ethan. Neo also raised his hand. "Attack!" All the humans surged forward,except Ethan. He stood there like a log. Neo gritted his teeth in fury. Ethan was blatantly disregarding him. Then suddenly— Boom! Ethan’s thirty clones vanished from their position. In the next instant, all thirty avatars reappeared in front of the thirty most powerful Celestials. Cassian’s heart suddenly dropped. A chill ran down his spine. He shouted, "Carefu-!" Before he could even finish the word, BOOM! Ethan slapped all thirty of them. They exploded into meat paste instantly. The battlefield fell silent in horror. This didn’t happen in the battlefield for a long time, killing 30 most powerful geniuses instantly. Cassian roared like a mad beast, light bursting from every inch of his body. "No! You bastard! I’m going to kill you!"
