Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 1970: Breaking News

’Black Tortoise Armor,’ is an advanced defensive divine ability, not only the signature ability of the Black Tortoise Altar but also the foremost defensive divine ability of the Fire Worship Sect!

As the top defensive divine ability of the Fire Worship Sect, throughout the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, the reputation of ’Black Tortoise Armor’ is immense, making it a household name!

Of course, this divine ability is extremely difficult to master successfully.

Currently, within the Fire Worship Sect, those who have successfully comprehended the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor’ do not exceed ten individuals.

It is for this reason that when Mats Davidson displayed the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ a group of Four Symbols Altar disciples present was stunned.

Because it’s a truly astonishing achievement!

Once this news spreads, it will certainly cause a sensation within the Four Symbols Altar!

"Brother Mats actually just comprehended ’Black Tortoise Armor’?"

Upon hearing Mats Davidson speak to Wyatt Barnes, many Four Symbols Altar disciples were taken aback again.

"I figured... If Brother Mats had already comprehended ’Black Tortoise Armor’ before, he wouldn’t have remained here, nor would he have gone down the mines today to excavate the Holy Stone! Turns out, he just recently comprehended ’Black Tortoise Armor’."

Many Four Symbols Altar disciples were suddenly enlightened.

"Listening to Brother Mats speak... It’s true that Wyatt pushed him to find the right ’opportunity,’ enabling him to succeed in comprehending ’Black Tortoise Armor’!"

"Sometimes, pressure can transform into ’motivation’... and Brother Mats, precisely under Wyatt’s pressure, found a suitable ’breakthrough,’ which allowed him to successfully comprehend ’Black Tortoise Armor’!"

"Brother Mats successfully comprehending ’Black Tortoise Armor’ also means he no longer needs to stay in the first mining area... Truly enviable."

"Not only does he not need to stay in the first mining area... Having successfully comprehended ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ he can even bypass the Holy Land exam and directly enter the Holy Land, becoming a ’Holy Land disciple!’"

...

A group of Four Symbols Altar disciples chatted away, their gaze towards Mats Davidson filled with admiration and envy.

Becoming a ’Holy Land disciple’ is the goal of every Four Symbols Altar disciple!

And for those Four Symbols Altar disciples expelled to serve in the first mining area:

Becoming a ’Holy Land disciple’ not only fulfills their long-cherished goal but also exempts them from punishment, allowing them to leave the first mining area of the Four Symbols Altar.

They can even go to the Fire Worship Sect Holy Land, becoming a ’Holy Land disciple’!

Thus, they are very envious of Mats Davidson.

"Congratulations, Brother Mats!"

Listening to Mats Davidson speak, Wyatt Barnes immediately realized the implications and congratulated Mats Davidson with sincere admiration.

"Brother Wyatt, now that I’ve mastered our Black Tortoise Altar’s signature divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ it means I can avoid punishment, leave the first mining area of the Four Symbols Altar, and proceed to the Holy Land to become a ’Holy Land disciple’... Starting today, the ’A-character Room’ in the Punishment Zone of the first mining area of the Four Symbols Altar is yours!"

Mats Davidson said to Wyatt Barnes with a smile.

However, towards the end, he added with a wry smile, "Of course, even if I didn’t leave, I definitely couldn’t keep that ’A-character Room’ in front of you, Brother Wyatt..."

"I’m aware: Although I’ve now mastered the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor’ and blocked your previous strike, Brother Wyatt, you didn’t use your full strength!"

"Once you deploy an advanced attack divine ability, even if I use ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ it’s impossible for me to block your attack!"

Mats Davidson spoke candidly, recognizing his limitations despite mastering the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ admitting he wasn’t a match for Wyatt Barnes!

After hearing Mats Davidson’s words, the disciples of Four Symbols Altar deeply agreed.

"Brother Mats, your words are too kind, your strength is formidable too... Without the ’support divine ability,’ I wouldn’t be a match for you."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, speaking politely and modestly.

"A support divine ability is also a part of one’s strength... Brother Wyatt, I look forward to meeting you again in the ’Holy Land’!"

Mats Davidson shook his head as well, saying this, he bid farewell to Wyatt Barnes and turned to leave.

Having successfully comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s signature divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor,’ he no longer needed to stay in the first mining area of Four Symbols Altar.

He could directly enter the Holy Land, becoming a ’Holy Land disciple’!

"Certainly."

Watching Mats Davidson’s departing figure, Wyatt Barnes squinted, whispering to himself.

"However... Today’s personal witness of Brother Mats deploying the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor’ was an unexpected gain indeed!"

Thinking about it, Wyatt Barnes felt a rush of excitement.

Although Mats Davidson managed to master the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Armor’ due to his pressure,

Mats Davidson’s execution of ’Black Tortoise Armor’ afforded Wyatt Barnes a chance to personally experience ’Black Tortoise Armor.’

Now, witnessing Mats Davidson exhibiting ’Xuanwu Protection’ with his own eyes, he gained some insights, "I have confidence... within half a year at most, I will grasp the Fire Worship Sect’s foremost defensive Divine Ability, ’Xuanwu Protection’!"

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes was filled with confidence.

Soon after, under the gaze of a group of Four Symbols Altar disciples, Wyatt Barnes entered the ’Alpha Room’ that originally belonged to Mats Davidson.

From now on, this would be his residence!

"I initially thought I would need to stay in the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area for half a year before heading to the Holy Land... After all, the ’Holy Land Assessment’ is six months later."

"However, now having seen Brother Mats Davidson use the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’, there is no need to wait for half a year... As long as I comprehend the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’ as Brother Mats Davidson did, I can directly enter the Holy Land and become a ’Holy Land disciple’!"

Upon entering the Alpha Room, Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

Murmuring to himself, his gaze became incomparably determined, "Keer, I will soon enter the Fire Worship Sect ’Holy Land’... I know you’re in the Enforcement Hall of the Fire Worship Sect Holy Land! Wait for me... it won’t be long before we meet. And our daughter... this unfit father will soon be able to see her."

In his whispered murmurs, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes revealed a gentle look.

Within the gentle gaze, there was a hint of anticipation.

"From now on, wholeheartedly comprehend the altar-guarding Divine Ability of the Black Tortoise Altar, Fire Worship Sect’s foremost Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’!"

With this thought, Wyatt Barnes directly entered the fourth layer of the Jewel Tower, fully immersing his spirit in the comprehension of the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’.

Having witnessed Mats Davidson showing the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’ today, Wyatt Barnes’s comprehension of this Divine Ability was much smoother...

Many past confusions were easily resolved one by one.

One could say, in the inadvertent aid he provided Mats Davidson in mastering ’Xuanwu Protection’, he also aided himself.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t know where to observe someone else using ’Xuanwu Protection’!

Witnessing Mats Davidson exhibiting the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’ was like divine assistance for him!

Relying on the heart forged through hundreds of trials from Supreme Heart Sword, he was confident of successfully comprehending ’Xuanwu Protection’ in a short time!

Wyatt Barnes was cultivating inside the ’Alpha Room’, completely unaware that the group of Four Symbols Altar disciples had not dispersed for a long while outside.

These Four Symbols Altar disciples clustered together, and in their conversations, the topic never strayed far from ’Wyatt Barnes’.

"I never thought Wyatt Barnes’s strength would be so formidable!"

"That’s right. Even Brother Mats Davidson, who has mastered our Fire Worship Sect’s foremost defensive Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’, is no match for him... and you know, Brother Mats Davidson is a formidable Heavenly Saint Realm mid-stage expert! Now he’s about to head to the Holy Land and become a ’Holy Land disciple’!"

"Hmph! His innate talent root is merely a ’yellow root’, and his pinnacle Earth Saint Realm cultivation is already the limit of his innate talent... his life is destined to be like this!"

"’Advanced Divine Abilities’ are indeed frightening... an Earth Saint Realm peak Martial Artist, relying on three advanced Divine Abilities, his strength is as strong as a regular Heavenly Saint Realm late-stage expert!"

"If only I could grasp an ’advanced Divine Ability’ too!"

...

As the saying goes, ’all banquets eventually come to an end’, after a while of discussing, the group of Four Symbols Altar disciples also dispersed and returned to their respective residences.

The next day, an astounding news swept through the Four Symbols Altar’s Fire Worship Sect!

This astounding news was:

The Black Tortoise Altar disciple ’Mats Davidson’, exiled to serve in the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area for twenty years, was absolved from his past punishment for successfully comprehending the Black Tortoise Altar’s altar-guarding Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’, and directly entered the Holy Land to become a ’Holy Land disciple’!

"Someone actually successfully comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s altar-guarding Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’?"

Everywhere in the Azure Dragon Altar, White Tiger Altar, and Black Tortoise Altar, similar discussions abounded, putting some pressure on the disciples of the three altars.

To know, the altar-guarding Divine Ability of the Black Tortoise Altar was acknowledged as the hardest among the Four Symbols Altar’s four altar-guarding Divine Abilities!

With the hardest Divine Ability successfully comprehended, if the Azure Dragon Altar, White Tiger Altar, and Vermilion Bird Altar still have no movement, wouldn’t they be looked down upon?

Wouldn’t it make people feel they are inferior to the Black Tortoise Altar?

For a moment, the vicinity of the ’altars’ in Azure Dragon Altar, White Tiger Altar, and Black Tortoise Altar saw quite a crowd.

Each with all their strength, striving to successfully comprehend the altar-guarding Divine Ability of their respective altars!

"Brother Mats Davidson did well!"

"Haha... Our Black Tortoise Altar has produced another person who has successfully comprehended the altar-guarding Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’! Brother Mats Davidson truly brought honor to our Black Tortoise Altar!"

...

Unlike the other three altars, the Black Tortoise Altar was noisy and bustling.

Many people were competing to celebrate, congratulating the emergence of another who successfully comprehended the altar-guarding Divine Ability in their Black Tortoise Altar!

At the same time, another piece of news from the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area also swept through the Four Symbols Altar like a bombshell:

Wyatt Barnes, upon being exiled to the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area on the very day, defeated ’Mats Davidson’, who had mastered the Divine Ability ’Xuanwu Protection’, and whose cultivation had long entered the Heavenly Saint Realm mid-stage!
