The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin took out three black and white fruits and handed them to Prince Reuben.

All the other princes, who were just standing close, instantly shifted their gazes to Austin as soon as they heard about the Soul- recovering Fruit.

Shock flooded their faces when they caught sight of the fruits on Austin's palm. Their eyes were all wide open and their mouth gaped in disbelief.

It was the Prince Reuben who recovered first. He looked dull and lifeless just minutes ago. However, his mood changed after realizing what happened. He was suddenly thrilled and couldn't even hold his excitement well! Even his chest began to heave heavily as his breath quickened.

"T-The Soul- recovering fruit... Y-you... Austin... You are... You... You are so awesome! Goodness! Are these Are these really the Soul- recovering fruits!" stuttered Prince Reuben as he was overwhelmed with joy.

He still couldn't believe what he was seeing. He then looked at the old man beside him and exclaimed, "Milton, look at what we have here!" Looking at the old man, Austin could tell that he was at the premium stage of Mysterious Realm.

It was possible that he was a master who cfrom the underground world and worked for Prince Reuben.

"The fruits are authentic, Your Highness. They contain powerful spiritual energy coming from heaven and earth. They can't be fake.

These are indeed the soul-recovering fruits!" Milton's shock was clear on his face. Clearly, it seemed that this was his first tseeing such a rare and precious treasure too.

"Ha! Oh boy! Austin, you are unbelievable! | can't believe that you really brought the soul-recovering fruits! This is such a big surprise! How could you be this naughty? You didn't even tellabout this until now! You gaveno clue! Ha-ha!" Prince Reuben roared with laughter.

Having confirmed that everything was real before his eyes, he was glowing with happiness as his laughter echoed in that place. He was even teary with joy! "Soul-recovering fruits! How could it be you who got them? You are nothing but a hateful bastard!" The grand prince's face grew furious as he cout of shock and realized what was happening. He was suddenly turning purple with rage as he glared at Austin. This turn of event was like a slap on his face.

He was more than sure earlier that he was the one who would win the throne. He was even boasting about it. However, Austin cin with the soul-recovering fruit! How dare this man shhim! The situation made the grand prince so upset that he let out a bloodcurdling cry. His eyes were bloodshot when he shot Austin with disdain. He was even worse than a gambler who lost all his money.

"This is impossible! You are not even qualified to have the soul-recovering fruits, Austin! They are mine!" the grand prince said. He was already losing his mind. Suddenly, he rushed towards Austin like a hawk that pounced on its prey. He clawed at the black and white fruits that were still on Austin's palms.

As someone who was at the medium stage of Mysterious Realm, the grand prince's bodily movement skill was good. He was fast and precise while attacking Austin. He wanted to take Austin by surprise.

"How dare you!" cried Prince Reuben upon seeing what happened.

However, Austin wasn't the type of person who would just let the grand prince snatch the soul-recovering fruit that easily. His cultivation base and powerful spiritual sense would help Austin to stop him anyway.

He glared coldly at the grand prince who mindlessly attacked him and snorted, "Huh! In your dreams!" Waves of powerful vital energy force burst out from his body. He then counter-attacked the grand prince in one swift move.

The grand prince felt like he was struck by lightning the moment Austin's vital energy force hit him. He was thrown at the air in an enormous speed.

In reality, Austin didn't really want to hurt the prince since the emperor was within the ssquare. Thus, he just used one-third of his real strength in that strike.

Nonetheless, the grand prince was still thrown thirty meters away before falling to the ground. A deafening thud echoed when his body hit the floor face down.

"Protect Austin!" Prince Reuben immediately ordered as soon as the grand prince fell. His men quickly surrounded Austin to protect him. Milton also joined the other men and stood before Austin. They were all alert as they guarded for all possible dangers that might come.

On the other hand, Austin found this funny. He didn't need these people to protect him since his cultivation base was higher than any of them. However, he did understand that this was for the sake of the soul-recovering fruits. It was apparent that Prince Reuben couldn't afford to lose them.

"Austin, as long as you give the soul-recovering fruits toand join my forces, | will appoint you as the prminister or the protector general of the army when | becthe emperor. You will be only second toand stand above anyone else." shouted the grand prince as he quickly got to his feet. He was determined to get the throne. He would never yield. He couldn't just allow Prince Reuben to have it.

"Austin. Don't listen to his bullshit. | can give you what he has promised." Prince Reuben blurted out, fearing that Austin might be tempted by the grand prince's offer and change sides.

"Ha! Thank you for your goodwill, Your Highness. However, I'm a man who likes being carefree," replied Austin as he looked at the grand prince.

Nothing mattered more to Austin than his cultivation base. It was the martial arts that decided everything in the PrMartial World. Thus, only with solid cultivation could he establish himself in this world. A position in the royal house wouldn't make Austin lose his determination in pursuing martial arts.

Meanwhile, Prince Reuben already sent someone to report the news to the emperor.

A few moments more and Austin's spiritual sense observed the emperor coming at a lightning speed.

Frankly, Austin didn't care about who would be the next emperor. The only reason why he took the soul-recovering fruit from the Mysterious Nether World was because of his promise to Prince Reuben. He said he would help him.

He basically didn't want any involvement in this war for the throne. This problem was within between the emperor and his sons.

Sensing the emperor coming, Austin quickly took Prince Reuben's hand and pressed the soul-recovering fruits into the prince's palm.

"These soul-recovering fruits are yours, Your Highness. | have fully fulfilled my task. Now excuse me. It is tforto leave." Austin immediately left as soon as he finished his words. One second after and he was already over two hundred meters away. He strode forward and disappeared in an instant.

"Hey, Austin!" Prince Reuben yelled as he tried to stop him for leaving. Nonetheless, it was too late.

It didn't take long after Austin disappeared from the square that the emperor arrived. He immediately spotted the three soul- recovering fruits in his youngest son's hand. The emperor reached out his hand, and even before Prince Reuben knew it, the fruits flew to the emperor's hand.

"Ha! They are really the soul-recovering fruits! So good! My dear queen, you can be saved now," said the emperor emotionally. He then turned to Prince Reuben and smiled.

"I didn't expect you to get these for me. It's really a surprise that someone was able to find the soul-recovering fruits in the Mysterious Nether Word and bring them back to me.

Well done, Reuben! Let's go to Doctor Hua's place and have him make the soul-recovering pill immediately. The top priority now is to cure the queen.

Other things can wait." The emperor was trembling in excitement as he held the soul-recovering fruits in his hands. With one wave of his hand, he dashed to the queen's palace.

Prince Reuben felt overjoyed at the emperor's praise. He was so carried away with his achievement and felt light-headed. He almost jumped and laughed out in joy! It was just that he still needed to behave in the presence of the emperor that he controlled himself. Thus, he looked rather composed as he followed the emperor behind.

"Your Majesty, | believe that my mother will recover from the illness as soon as Doctor Hua gets the soul-recovering fruits and refines the pill." Prince Reuben didn't waste a chance to impress the emperor.

"Ha! Of course, she will! Her illness can only be cured by the soul-recovering pill in the first place.

You have made an outstanding contribution to this, Reuben. You have done a great job!" praised the elated emperor.

"It is my honor and my duty, Your Majesty," responded Prince Reuben immediately.

The other nine princes were all dejected as they watched Prince Reuben win the favor of their father.

The grand prince looked worst among them. He had worked so hard for the past few years just to get the throne. He had recruited people to form cliques and actions. He had built his networks by his own effort. He even gathered a large group of masters from the underground world of martial arts.

All his efforts went in vain in the end. It was still Prince Reuben who got the upper hand. It wasn't even hard to see that Prince Reuben would be the next emperor.

That was a heavy blow against his ego. He couldn't just accept all these things easily. He stood there dumbly as his eyes lost their luster. He then muttered to himself insanely, "How could it be possible? It should have been me! I'm the rightful one to get the throne.

Austin! You ruined all!" The grand prince's expression suddenly turned murderous. He firmly gazed at the direction where Austin fled and then screamed, "Austin, | swear that | will make you pay!"
