The Immortal's Wine Store

Chapter 396 - Announcement Of Winners



The tournament resumed even with the unexpected death of Prince Amon. This time, the participants dared not act leisurely anymore. They were careful as they fought with their opponents. The officials monitoring the battles also observed the fights with keen eyes. They didn't want any unnecessary deaths to happen again.

The Demon Ancestors of the Great Demon Empire even encircled the battle arena of Princess Cornelia. They didn't want anything to happen to her since she would be the next ruler of their empire.

After a few more days, the tournament finally concluded. Everyone cheered for the winners, while the losers were feeling down.

"The tournament is now officially over! Now, I will announce the top three participants of the Earth Battle category." Blue said with a loud voice.

"Top three is Grayrock!" Blue read the name of the top three.

It was a warrior from the beastmen race. His skin was covered by gray fur and he had a humanoid face. If not for his long canine teeth and beast-like eyes, he would be mistaken as a human.

Grayrock walked towards the battle arena under everyone's sonorous cheers. He felt overwhelmed by the crowd's enthusiasm that he could not mask the smile on his face.

After that, Blue also announced the second and first place. The second place was a huge demon who stood four meters tall. He had bulging muscles and a ferocious face.

"The first place is Elyk Silveria..."

Elyk calmly walked towards the arena. He was the smallest among the top three winners, but no one dared to underestimate this human. He triumphed over all the other competitors and remained undefeated. Even Grayrock and the second-placed demon both looked at him with respect.

Blue smiled at the three warriors and said with a gentle voice. "The three of you can get your rewards from Sister Theia."

At the mention of the rewards, the three revealed joyous expressions, while the others could only glance at them in envy.

"Now, let me announce the top three participants of the Heaven Battle category."

"Top three, Cornelia Bloodfallen!"

Princess Cornelia walked up the battle arena with graceful steps. With her early stage Demon Lord strength, she managed to clinch third place which was very surprising. After all, most of her opponents had higher cultivation than her.

"Top 2, Leaf!"

The young and handsome elf jumped into the arena with a calm expression. He had the highest cultivation among the participants and many placed their bets on him. However, he was defeated by the experienced and seasoned fighter General Nangong!

"First place, General Nangong!"

A stoic and composed demon wearing heavy battle armor leaped towards the arena.

The spectators erupted into a frenzy as they cheered for the three. They were the strongest among the Demon Lord level and they deserved the respect of everyone!

Blue stared at the winners with a beautiful smile. "Sister Theia will take over me. You can get your rewards from her."

Hearing this, the winners of the Earth and Heaven Battle nodded their heads eagerly. Even the calm-faced General Nangong had a look of excitement.

The results of the tournament surprised the whole continent. They never thought that such talented fighters were living among them. Everyone was also intrigued by the rewards given to the winners, but no one made things difficult for them. After all, the rewards were provided by the 'legendary wine store'!

A day later.

Outside the lotus building, Jiu Shen was calmly sitting on a chair, basking under the sunlight with a bottle of wine in his hand.

Ding!

Mission: Organize a tournament successfully.

Mission complete!

You receive x5 Fruit of Cultivation!

Jiu Shen ignored the notifications on his head. He leaned comfortably on his chair and muttered. "With this, I should be able to reach the Void God Realm..."

"I should go to the Spirit World and proceed to breakthrough there. Hm, how should I tell Balmond that his usele- his beloved son is dead..." Jiu Shen cupped his chin while looking at the group of ladies who were cleaning the garden.

Since Yue Bo wasn't around, Jiu Shen asked the sisters of Blue to become the temporary cleaners of the garden.

Jiu Shen calmly stared at their lithe figures as they weeded the spiritual garden.

"I didn't know that the legendary Wine Master Jiu Shen actually likes watching women cleaning his garden." An amorous voice suddenly echoed behind, but Jiu Shen acted as if he didn't hear anything.

After seeing that she was ignored, Cornelia pouted in dissatisfaction. Was her beauty not enough to charm this man?

Just as Cornelia was about to move closer to Jiu Shen, she suddenly felt a chill on her back. She turned her gaze and saw a cold-faced Theia standing at the entrance of the lotus building.

Looking at her, Cornelia chuckled nervously. Although their cultivation level was almost the same, she felt that she wasn't as strong as this blonde-haired beauty. She didn't why she felt this way, but it was what her instincts told her.

"Hello, Sister Theia! It's good to see you!" Cornelia greeted her with a bright smile.

Theia gave a sidelong glance at the succubus before she ignored her. She then walked towards Jiu Shen and stood beside him like a protective hen.

There was a brief period of silence and it was Cornelia could who spoke first. "Wine Master Jiu, can I ask where my father is?"

"Why are you looking for Balmond?" Jiu Shen asked without even looking at her.

Cornelia's face turned serious as she replied. "I want to tell him about the death of my brother Amon. Don't worry. I will explain everything to him..."

Hearing this, Jiu Shen inwardly sighed in relief. Luckily, he didn't have to explain things to Balmond personally. It would have been awkward for him since Elyk could be considered his follower. "Alright. I will bring you to him."

Cornelia nodded her head gratefully.

Jiu Shen stood up from his seat and summoned the door to the Spirit World.

Om!

Looking at the huge wooden door, Cornelia had a stunned look.
