Some of the geniuses' stares, full of disdain aiming at Ezequiel, also focused on Zatiel.

They detected the Neo-Demon's bloodline power, and although they had no idea about its origin, that did not stop them from considering Zatiel a bloodline thief.

??

The Neo-Demon's Ancestor could not care less about what these so-called "geniuses" thought of him, but he noticed Ezequiel's thoughtful expression.

"There is no need to reveal our power just to quiet down their pathetic complaints." Zatiel knew the Supreme Neo-Demon would not succumb to something so insignificant like group pressure, so he didn't know what passed through his mind.

They never intended to depend on anyone else during their time in the Prima-Eldritch Universe Final Battlefield, so their fame did not matter. Not to mention, it was not sure whether Ezequiel could defeat Hirko.

"I know, but this is an excellent chance to test my strength in a one-on-one battle. Besides, we could obtain some gains from the spectacle they created."

After that short conversation between the Neo-Demons, Ezequiel focused on the Titan and smiled.

"I am open to a battle, but the stakes are wrong. I don't give a crap whatever you drop off the matter about my bloodline or nor. If you want to challenge me for the chance of obtaining the information about my Titan Bloodline, then you need to hand four Earth Grade Chaos Stones if you lose."

The moment the term Earth Grade Chaos Stones came out of Ezequiel's mouths, everybody, including the Royal brothers, stared at the Supreme Neo-Demon as if he was a madman.

Chaos Stones were superb cultivation resources that even Law Overlords desire. They are a crystallization of the powers unleashed during an Epoch Explosion and contain fragments of the truths, laws, and ancient forces that give birth and allow a universe to grow and evolve.

These sacred objects are divided by how pure are the Epoch forces inside them. Some carry a mere wisp while others are so potent that they could help stabilize and grow a Law Overlord's inner universe.

Unfortunately, there is a finite number of Chaos Stones due to the unique event that created them. The Prima Universe once contained them, but they had long gone run out due to the insatiable hunger of the powerhouses.

It is incredibly hard to price a Chaos Stone since no one would want to sell them, as their help to cultivation is second to none. However, you could easily buy a Pseudo Rank 7 Artifact or Rune with one Earth Grade.

"Hmph, why would I agree to such a ridiculous bet! Since when the words of a thief can compare with four Earth Grade Chaos Stone?" Hirko's immediately rebuked Ezequiel. There was no way he would accept such a bet.

"Aren't you a proud member of the Titan Race? Shouldn't you be one hundred percent sure of victory against me, or are you telling me a thief can make better use of your race's Law Bloodline?" Ezequiel's voice was loud enough so all those focusing on them could hear it.

Anyone could see the goal behind Ezequiel's words, but that did not prevent some geniuses from looking at Hirko with disdain for his fear and hesitation.

They were proud members of races with some of the most potent Law Bloodlines in the universe. How could anyone even think they could lose against a bloodline thief, especially if they are in the same cultivation level.

"If the resolution of those following you is so weak, you don't deserve the Dawn Titan Bloodline. Why don't you hand it over to someone else, so you can stop shaming your race?"

This time, Ezequiel spoke to Tksar and completely disregarded Hirko, making a nasty expression appear in the Titan.

Tksar's eyes burned with wrath and killing intent when he heard those words. He wanted nothing more than to shred Ezequiel to pieces and burn his soul, but there was nothing he could do within the Dark Tower.

The idea of chasing him down within the Earth Ring crossed his mind, but he knew that would be a futile chase.

Each Ring was more than ten times larger than a Principal Plane, and with the laws hindering their perception, trying to find someone from whom they know nothing would be impossible.

The only reason they would see each other again within the Earth Ring would be if both went to the same stronghold or by luck. One was unreliable, and the Dawn Titan was sure Ezequiel would not be so dumb as to enter a place controlled by the Titan Race.

If he did not handle things right now, the fact he was insulted by a bloodline thief would spread, affecting his reputation and standing within the Titan Race.

Even if he had the Dawn Titan Bloodline and powerful backing, the competition within the young geniuses of the Titan Race was fierce. However, the Earth Grades Chaos Stones were too valuable. In all his time within the Earth Ring, Tksar had amassed less than fifty.

As he thought about what to do, the Dawn Titan detected the people's eyes focusing on him, and he glanced at Hirko with anger. Due to the circus the Titan provoked, there was no way he could back down now.

Of course, he was not just going to let Ezequiel take advantage of him.

"I agree, but if you want my side to bet four Earth Grade Chaos Stones, you must..."

"I won't bet anything else other than the information on how I obtained the Titan Bloodline. If you are too afraid to take what should be a safe gamble, say it and let this be over. My time is precious."

Before Tksar could finish speaking, Ezequiel interrupted him and ended the discussion. The Supreme Neo-Demon knew nothing about this group or the man he would face.

Ezequiel was not so arrogant as to think he could not lose, so he found no reason to bet anything of value only to satisfy his curiosity.

The information on how he obtained the Titan Bloodline was worth nothing, so he did not mind revealing it.

"Aren't you a coward? Asking us to change our bet but refusing to modify yours!" Hirko yelled at the Supreme Neo-Demon, and his voice was full of viciousness and disdain.

Unfortunately for the Titan, unlike their side, who cared about the opinion of the Dark Tower's geniuses, Ezequiel did not mind if they stared at him with contempt and scorn.

"If I am a coward or not, it is not something people whose opinions have no value to me can decide. Are we going to fight or not?"

The Supreme Neo-Demon understood that Zatiel never calculated the support of the other races or powerhouses in his plans.

Whether they helped him or stood in his way did not matter to the Neo-Demon's Ancestor. He only needed the Neo-Demon Race, and there will come a day when the other races will have to accept Chaotic Core in their hearts or face oblivion.

Hirko saw the complete disregard Ezequiel had of his reputation and that only angered more. He was going to continue his yelling when the Dawn Titan spoke.

"Let's go to the Arena and finish this," Tksar said nothing else, and after giving a meaningful glance at Hirko, he flew toward a giant black square.

Hirko's heart trembled for a second when the Dawn Titan's eyes landed on him, and he understood failure was not allowed. The Titan glanced at Ezequiel with pure coldness and flew after Tksar along with the rest of his comrades.
