Begin Chapter 99 of "The Rise of the Black Plain" with: Another five days passed quickly, and at this point, Minos and Ruth had already crossed... Find out more!

Another five days passed quickly, and at this point, Minos and Ruth had already crossed almost all the forest where they were. This place was one of the last where they would be able to fight and train with wild spiritual beasts. After this point, they would reach the most urbanized region of the Cromwell Kingdom, where there were practically no more natural forests. Practically all-terrain after the point where the two youths were, it was a great plain. And with that, the population of these areas took advantage of almost all the terrain between the cities to cultivate spiritual plants. After all, that was the specialty of the Cromwell Kingdom. And because of that, Minos and Ruth would spend less time training and more time traveling on this final part of their trip to the kingdom's capital. At this moment, Minos was sitting in the middle of a mountainous area, in that forest where they were. There were several large trees, not far from where Minos and Ruth were cultivating, at this very moment. The two of them had another round of fights just a few minutes ago, in which Minos had once, again, lost... This was something the two of them had been doing whenever they didn't fight spiritual beasts. This was an excellent way to increase the two youngsters' mastery of their respective techniques since they could understand new ways of fighting with so much experience. Minos then finished cultivating and looked for Ruth. She, too, had already finished her cultivation and was massaging her great eagle, which was lying near a tree. Seeing Minos looking at her, Ruth smiled and teased him. "Are you just admiring me, or do you want to be beaten up again?" "Hmph, if it was a fight worth anything and I could use my sword, these results would not be so one-sided." Minos pouted and said in a playful voice while holding his grade-2, low-grade sword. Upon hearing this, Ruth smiled gracefully and said. "Haha! This is just an excuse!" The two then started to talk, but soon a voice sounded not far away when someone said. "Oh! A grade-2, low-level sword! I don't have one, brat. How much do you want for it?" Upon hearing this, Minos and Ruth looked in the direction where that voice came. Shortly after a few seconds, a young man with long green hair, wearing noble clothes in white and black colors, appeared in that place. There was also a two-meter-tall man beside this young man, wearing blue armor and holding a spear in one of his hands. He had a rustic look, which would surely make people stray from the sight of him. When probing these newcomers, Ruth frowned and whispered to Minos. "This young man is at level 42, and the man who appears to be his guard is at level 50." "Oh? Can you fight someone like that?" Minos asked carefully. "I can hold it for a while. But I can't beat it." She said seriously. If this man were a subordinate to some noble family in this part of the Central Continent, then the probability of him having Silver-grade techniques was almost zero. And even if he were a member of one of these families, he would at most have one of these techniques. So, Ruth was very confident in holding someone of that level for a while. But that was the most she could do. After all, the difference between her cultivation and that of the man was huge. Just to give you an idea, someone at level 50 had almost twice as much spiritual energy as someone at level 46! Meanwhile, the two newcomers got a little closer to Minos and Ruth when the young man said with a smile on his face. "And then? Tell me your price, I, Leroy Chambers, will pay a good price!" Minos then said. "It is not for sale." After hearing this, Leroy looked at Minos for a second and said with a confident smile on his face. "Brat, you must be going to the Spiritual Tournament, right? Let me tell you, you have no chance of getting a good position in this competition, and you cannot use this weapon either." "If you give me your weapon now, I can think of taking you to the Flaming Empire as my subordinate in the future!" Leroy said out loud as if there was no chance he would lose the Spiritual Tournament. Upon hearing this, both Minos and Ruth had a strange look on their faces. 'How much arrogance! This guy thinks he is already the winner even before the competition starts!' The two thought with a mixture of pity and contempt for this young man with green hair. Such a person never made it to the top! In fact, this young man would probably die prematurely since being arrogant and rash at that level would only cause him to face disaster, sooner or later, by underestimating strangers. Minos then said simply. "If I wanted to go to the Flaming Empire, I wouldn't need your help for this..." Meanwhile, Leroy's bodyguard, Jeff, was getting more and more irritated on hearing Minos refusing his young master's kindness. He then said it out loud while using his cultivation level to pressure Minos and Ruth. "This worm does not seem to understand the situation he is in. Young master, there's no use talking to ignorant people. Let's just take what we want!" "Hmm, on second thought, this is the best way. In fact, I really liked that girl. After we kill this brat, I will destroy her cultivation and make her my slave!" The young man said with a luxurious gleam in his eyes. Already on the side of Minos, when he heard someone saying such a thing about Ruth, Minos felt hatred for that person. He did not know what could happen between him and Ruth in the future. Their relationship was still very premature. But regardless of what happens, she would still be his friend, considering everything they had already been through together. And as for Ruth, she had never heard anything so disgusting as what this young man with green hair had just said. She was always a person who valued her sexuality and her freedom. In a single comment, Leroy had irritated the beautiful Ruth deeply, to the point that she wanted to take his head off. Shortly after that, Minos told her in a low voice. "Try to hold on to this guard. I will deal with this bastard quickly." After hearing this, she nodded and prepared to fight. Even if she wasn't going to deal with Leroy, Minos doing it was enough for her. At the same time, on Leroy's side, he looked at how Minos and Ruth acted, and then a thought crossed his mind before he prepared to attack Minos. 'These two seem to be more than a guard and a young master... I think it would be better to keep this guy alive while I rape his girlfriend! Hahahaha' Leroy then said. "Jeff, deal with this beauty quickly, but be careful not to damage her body excessively." "Hahaha, alright, young master." Jeff said with a smile on his face. Minos then held his sword tightly with both hands and started to move towards Leroy. Devouring Art! Indestructible Body! Spatial Sword! His three techniques were activated at the same time when he had come close enough to Leroy. Simultaneously, when a black ring began to circulate around Minos a few meters high in the sky, Ruth, who was a few meters far from the young Stuart, activated her techniques and continued to attack the guard Jeff, with much of her strength. Instant Steps! Fists of Pain! And, at the same time that they saw Minos and Ruth coming towards them and activating their techniques, Jeff and Leroy did the same thing. They both used Black-grade techniques for all their techniques, so they were very confident! 'Let's get this over with quickly!' Leroy thought with a smile as he simultaneously activated his moving and attack technique. Jeff did the same, too, as he started running towards Ruth. He was attacking directly on the girl's neck, where he wanted to destroy her cultivation, to resolve this problem quickly. Devil's Claws! Black claws appeared in the hands of Jeff and Leroy as they moved quickly. At the same time, Minos made some movements with his sword, sending several blades of air towards Leroy, while he used a large part of his energies. Swooish! Swooish! The sound of the air being cut sounded, and a fist over 2 meters long and 1 meter high kept traveling through the skies, going towards Jeff's chest. This was Ruth's attack, which she wanted to use to hold this person, while Minos dealt with Leroy! Rumble! Feeling the power of Minos and Ruth's techniques, the two enemies had suddenly changed their expressions when they finally began to understand why these youths had disobeyed them!
