“I will take good care of myself.”
Lis fell silent, merely nodding slowly in response.
At this time, Mil approached respectfully and said:
“Lord Lis, all the elves in attendance have arrived.”
“Good.”
Lis turned his head and spoke to Igley:
“Shall we head over now?”
“No problem.”
Igley readily agreed, following a step behind Lis towards the elves in the Martial Arts Arena.
“Silence!”
Bella saw Lis approaching and spoke sternly.
As her voice fell, all the murmurs vanished instantly; the entire Martial Arts Arena became silent.
The warriors of the Jade City Elf Guard naturally maintained silence; they were, in a sense, the most elite elf soldiers and were unlike those disorderly privileged elves.
Moreover, their leader Igley was there—no one dared to make unnecessary noise at that moment.
The other younger elves felt the same.
Before coming, their elders had instructed them to obey the commands of this human and had informed them of Lis’s identity as a World Tree’s Favored and Elf Sage.
Perhaps Lis might be concerned about the Jade City Elf Council, but even a high-level elf or council member alone wasn’t enough to concern him.
Even the “troublemakers,” when they first saw Lis, behaved rather well.
After all, it was best to see how things unfolded!
Take Xia Zuo standing beside Erik, for instance.

Seeing Lis walking over, while he dared not speak, he still made eye signals to Erik next to him.
Erik, who had grown up with Xia Zuo, naturally understood the meaning behind his smirks and gestures.
That human doesn’t seem that great at all; is he really a World Tree’s Favored?
Although Erik understood Xia Zuo’s gesture, at this time, he really wanted to knock him on the head.
You are a Silver Level Professional, yet you haven’t sensed any aura—doesn’t that tell you something?
However, the always composed Erik wasn’t able to “speak” with expressive gestures like Xia Zuo, remaining silent instead.
Xia Zuo, getting no response, felt it uninteresting and turned his head back to scrutinize Lis further.
Lis slowly entered the Martial Arts Arena, gradually walking toward the elves.
His steps at first were like a gentle breeze in the woods, soft and barely noticeable. However, as he walked deeper, a subtle and indescribable atmosphere began to quietly spread through the air.
Gradually, the aura emanating from Lis began to harmonize subtly with the surrounding natural environment, carrying a weight that seemed to transcend nature.
Each step he took was not just a change in position but more like an echo of ancient power on the ground, each contact releasing a wave of invisible vibrations that slowly spread outward.
All the elves in the arena began to feel an unusual sense of oppression, causing slight disturbances that soon calmed down, with all eyes focusing on the approaching Lis.
Around Lis, spots of emerald and light green light began to circle, emanating an atmosphere that was both tranquil and solemn.
HIs steps had now transformed into an invisible heavy hammer, each strike landing precisely at the hearts of the elves. This was not just a mental oppression but also a physical heaviness, as if an unseen force was compressing their chests, making their breathing less smooth.
Some of the weaker elves began to sway slightly, their legs trembling as if they could be overwhelmed by this sudden force at any moment.
Even beads of sweat quickly gathered on their pristine foreheads, sliding down their delicate faces to drop onto the ground below, where they were instantly absorbed, leaving only tiny moist rings.
Xia Zuo, being stronger, naturally was not so disheveled; yet even so, he wasn’t faring much better, as the dense sweat on his forehead indicated the heavy pressure he was enduring.
At this moment, gone was his previous relaxed demeanor; all his focus was on resisting the increasingly immense pressure.
This World Tree’s Favored truly is a monster…
Xia Zuo bitterly smiled within his heart, wondering even the nearby Gale Sword Saint couldn’t have made him so disheveled merely through the pressure of his presence, could he?
Yet for some reason, the terrifying aura exuding from Lis, though it put immense pressure on Xia Zuo, held no malice.
Instead, it made Xia Zuo feel a desire to draw closer and even a sense of reverence and holiness.
By the time Lis walked up to the three hundred young elves, the oppressive aura he emitted had climbed to its peak, causing forty to fifty elves in the troop to succumb to the immense pressure, kneeling on the ground of the Martial Arts Arena.
Lis looked around at all the elves, nearly everyone bowed their heads in respect.
Three Gold Rank elves in the troop were not so disheveled, but their faces were tight.
Even they felt an extreme terror from the pressure, knowing they couldn’t possibly contend with Lis.
Above all, Cendelle appeared the most shocked.
When she had first met Lis, although she sensed that Lis’s strength was extraordinary, she hadn’t asked further.
At that time, wasn’t Lis a warrior? But now, what was this Magic Power emanating from him that was far stronger than hers, even though she was a Golden Mage?
For a moment, Cendelle was thrown into confusion.
If not for the fact that Lis’s appearance hadn’t changed and Cecil also stood behind him, she would have suspected the Lis she knew earlier might be another Human of the same name.
Lis didn’t pay any attention to Cendelle, for what was more important to him now was dealing with the young elves sent from the Jade City.
He had absolutely no time to get to know these elves individually, so to quickly establish his prestige, he chose this straightforward and simple show of force.
Lis stood in front of all the elves, silent for several minutes.
For all the elves present, each second was excruciating. Although the pressure didn’t continue to increase, the mental and physical oppression was extremely unpleasant for them.
Igley, standing behind Lis, also watched him with a bit of surprise, but he suspected what Lis intended to do.
Lis looked at all the elves in front of him and nodded slightly, then withdrew the Extraordinary Domains “Nature” and “Life” that enveloped the Martial Arts Arena.
Feeling the pressure on their bodies suddenly disappear, many elves breathed a sigh of relief, and a few even staggered forward a few steps.
“Everyone!”
A calm voice rang out, and the elves, with pale faces, looked up at the Human who had just subjected them to terrifying oppression.
“My name is Lis Kain, and you should all know the name Ward already.”
“There’s no need for too many words, you are here today because you obviously know what this place is.”
Lis looked around, seeing the awe in the elves’ eyes, yet he showed no signs of arrogance or pride.
His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every elf.
“The formation of Nature’s Wrath is to prevent another tragedy like that of the Elf Royal Court.”
“I can tell you all that the destruction of the Elf Royal Court is not the end, but just the beginning of an even more terrifying and bloody future!”
“Many are curious as to why I could become a Favored of the World Tree?”
“It’s because the World Tree, too, was tainted by the power of the Endless Abyss, and I merely did my best to rectify this dire situation!”
What?
The World Tree Yggdrasil was tainted by the Abyss Power?
Xia Zuo and Erik stared blankly at Lis in front of them, their minds filled only with astonishment.
“What?”
“That’s impossible!”
“How could the World Tree…?”
…
This time, even the soldiers of the Elf Guard couldn’t contain their shock, and noisy voices rose again.
“Quiet!”
