Chapter 1741: Chapter 1741: He Is Wyatt!
"None of them got the quotas?"
Upon hearing Ebba King’s words, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but furrow his brows. He hadn’t considered this possibility before.
Now that he thinks about it, it’s indeed possible.
However, his brows quickly relaxed, and he said calmly, "If none of them get the quota to enter the Saint Martial Secret Realm, then I can’t help them... As for the favor I owe their elders, I’ll find an opportunity to repay it later."
Ebba King heard this and her eyes immediately lit up.
"I hope those two guys can’t get the quota to enter the Saint Martial Secret Realm this time."
Ebba King silently thought to herself.
In her opinion, even if Enoch Mullins and Isaias Tasker could get the quota, their strength would surely be at the bottom among the disciples of the Mysterious Void Residence entering the Saint Martial Secret Realm. Following her and Wyatt would only be a burden.
Of course, the main thing is that she and the man beside her rarely have the chance to be alone, so she naturally doesn’t want to be disturbed.
This is the focus of all focuses!
The expectation in Ebba King’s eyes was naturally noticed by Wyatt Barnes, who could completely guess her thoughts.
However, he didn’t say much.
Since he agreed to cooperate with Ebba King, he would cooperate with her till the end.
As for Enoch Mullins and Isaias Tasker, it depends on whether they can pull through.
If they’re not competent, he can’t help them; if they are, he can lend them a hand inside the Saint Martial Secret Realm, giving them a chance to comprehend advanced Divine Ability relics as much as possible.
Of course, he can only say that he’ll try his best.
After all, he himself is not very familiar with the situation inside the Saint Martial Secret Realm and doesn’t dare make any promises.
"We’re here."
As they flew up and reached the peak, Ebba King’s voice came to Wyatt Barnes’ ears.
Soon after, the two stepped out side by side, landing on the vast platform at the peak.
Their appearance naturally attracted a lot of attention, like a golden boy and jade girl pair, walking side by side, resembling an immortal couple.
Feeling the eyes around them, Ebba King’s face rarely showed a few rosy hues, revealing a shy demeanor typical of a young girl.
"It’s Ebba King!"
"It really is her! I’ve seen this young lady from Tyrant Saber Manor once before, but I never thought she’d really join our Mysterious Void Residence and even enter our Heavenly Palace."
"Just as the rumors say, besides having martial talents and strength that match those of her male peers, this young lady of the King family also has the beauty of a goddess... Heaven indeed favors her, giving her all the good things."
"Other girls of the same age, facing her, might rarely not feel inferior."
...
Soon, many recognized Ebba King, and in their words, they praised her to the skies, almost saying ’such a lady should only exist in heaven.’
If it were the usual days, hearing such praise wouldn’t faze Ebba King.
But now, there’s an extra person beside her, especially a man she has quite some feelings for, making her feel a bit elated while subconsciously turning her head to glance at the man beside her.
Quickly, Ebba King became disappointed.
Because she noticed that the man beside her didn’t react even slightly upon hearing people praise her, which quickly engendered a considerable sense of frustration.
"He’s such a blockhead!"
Ebba King silently cursed, "I really don’t know how his three women were coaxed into his hands... Can such a blockhead even pursue girls?"
Someone recognized Ebba King, and shortly after, more people learned of her arrival.
"Ebba King, the young lady of Tyrant Saber Manor, reportedly a Middle Saint Realm early-stage Martial Artist at such a young age... Among the young female Martial Artists in our Mysterious Void Domain, she’s considered the first!"
"This young lady of the King family not only has strong martial talents but is also as beautiful as a flower, with considerable status... Whoever marries her can save thirty years of struggle!"
"That’s right. It’s just a pity that though she has many pursuers, it’s said she never gives those men any attention, her standards are extremely high... Men who can catch her eye are few and far between in the entire world."
...
As time passed, more and more people approached, paying attention to Ebba King.
"Oh? This young lady of the King family actually came with this man... Who is he?"
"Young lady King is so close to him... Oh my! Is this really the young lady King who keeps men at arm’s length?"
...
Soon, many noticed Wyatt Barnes beside Ebba King, several gazes landed on Wyatt.
Yet, Wyatt Barnes seemed unaware of these gazes, continuing to walk forward.
Ebba King noticed the surrounding eyes, and seeing Wyatt Barnes’ calm demeanor, her eyes shifted, and a conspiratorial smile played at the corners of her mouth.
Immediately, under everyone’s gaze, Ebba King swiftly reached out, linking arms with Wyatt as they walked forward.
"What are you doing?"
Feeling his arm hooked, Wyatt Barnes momentarily halted, frowned, and looked at Ebba King.
"I say, you’re not going to be petty, are you? It’s just hugging your arm, is it necessary to be like this?"
Ebba King hadn’t expected Wyatt Barnes to stop because of her little gesture, and asked her in a questioning tone, making her feel somewhat aggrieved.
Thinking of herself as the dignified noblewoman of Tyrant Saber Manor, with countless suitors, she voluntarily hugged a man’s arm today but was treated like this—when had she ever suffered such grievance?
Ebba King at this moment rarely showed the posture of a little girl’s grievance, which softened Wyatt Barnes’ heart somewhat.
"If you like hugging, then hug."
Shaking his head, Wyatt didn’t say anything more, lest this little mistress burst into tears if they continued.
Watching Ebba King hugging Wyatt Barnes as they walked along, the group of people around them was dumbstruck.
"That...who is that guy? Miss King is actually hugging his arm? Am I seeing things?"
"You’re not seeing things, I saw it too... Oh my God! When did Miss King stoop to being so proactive? Countless young, talented men tried to pursue her before, and she refused them all... but today, she’s voluntarily taking a man’s arm. I’m so envious; I wish I were that man."
"Stop dreaming! With your ugly looks, it’d be surprising if Miss King even glanced at you!"
...
One blade-like gaze after another fell on Wyatt Barnes. If looks could kill, Wyatt Barnes would have died countless times already.
To the men of the Mysterious Void, Ebba King was undoubtedly the ’dream girl,’ lofty and untouchable.
Yet today, right in front of them, Ebba King was voluntarily embracing a man’s arm.
"Who is he?"
"Never seen him before."
...
Although Wyatt Barnes’ alias ’Wyatt’ had long been renowned in the Mysterious Void, few had seen him, so many people didn’t recognize him.
"Isn’t that ’Wyatt’?"
Finally, after confirming several times, someone recognized Wyatt Barnes and couldn’t help but exclaim.
His words were like a stone dropped into a tranquil lake, causing the surface to explode with ripples and waves of astonishment.
"Wyatt? He’s Wyatt?"
"Is he the one who tied with Lumi Clifford in battle, and absorbed all the Spiritual Energy in the spirit pool within just twenty days?"
"I would never have thought that Wyatt had not only great skill but looks so handsome as well."
"I realize...my heart is beating so fast. I might have fallen for him."
...
The gazes once again fell on Wyatt Barnes, filled with surprise and shock, with many female disciples continuously sending secretive glances his way, as if they were ready to be swept off their feet at his slightest wish.
Upon realizing that Wyatt Barnes’ ’identity’ was unveiled and completely overshadowed her, Ebba King surprisingly found herself not unhappy but rather in a good mood.
Ebba King, unless the disciples of the Mysterious Void were particularly isolated from news, almost everyone had heard of her.
Wyatt, though he had only recently risen in the Mysterious Void, his deeds were enough to astonish everyone.
"Wyatt is here?"
"Let’s go! Over there and take a look! I’ve yet to see this genius demon of our Heavenly Palace."
"Same here, I’ve only heard of him before but haven’t seen him yet."
...
In the distance, as more Heavenly Palace disciples learned that Wyatt Barnes was here, they immediately flocked towards him.
Their purpose, naturally, was to see Wyatt Barnes in person.
To be precise, to behold the true identity of Wyatt’s alias.
Within a moment, Wyatt Barnes unwittingly became the center of attention, with more and more people gathering from all sides, including disciples from the other three halls who came to join the spectacle at the Mysterious Void.
They were curious about the genius disciple of the Heavenly Palace, wanting to see what kind of person he was.
With so many people aware that Wyatt Barnes had arrived, Lumi Clifford naturally knew as well. He rushed over and provocatively glanced at the Cox Family brothers not far away, as if to say:
"The main guy’s here, dare you challenge him?"
Noticing Lumi Clifford’s provocative gaze, the Cox Family brothers both had a somewhat unsightly look on their faces.
At the same time, whether due to getting heated-headed or truly wanting to challenge Wyatt Barnes, after Lumi Clifford withdrew his gaze, they too began to move, proceeding in the direction of the crowd.
"Wyatt Junior Brother."
Unlike others who stood by and whispered, Lumi Clifford moved through the crowd and approached Wyatt Barnes, smiling and greeting him.
"Lumi Senior Brother."
Wyatt Barnes had a good impression of Lumi Clifford and responded with a smile.
"Wyatt Junior Brother, in a bit, the Cox Family brothers will probably challenge you... You should spar with them individually, and if they team up, you should directly refuse. When they team up, they have defeated many Middle Saint Realm peak experts! As twins, they have a telepathic connection and perfect coordination with each other."
After greeting him, Lumi Clifford immediately whispered advice to Wyatt Barnes.
