"Tian Yang! Get your ass out here! I won't move a single inch until you come out and fight me like a man! Or have you become a coward since our last duel?!" Giant Emperor Kulas roared when Yuan didn't respond to his callings.

The giants in the city were baffled by the Giant Emperor Kulas' words.

In their eyes, Giant Emperor Kulas was the strongest giant in their race. He was a proud warrior with a godlike physique that has never lost a fight before. While many giants would challenge him, they don't recall the last time he personally challenged another person to a fight.

And judging by his recent words, it seemed that Giant Emperor Kulas was desperate to fight this individual known as Tian Yang.

However, nobody there knew of a giant by that name.

"Do you know of a Tian Yang?"

"No, I don't."

The giants in the city mumbled to each other while Giant Emperor Kulas stood before their city, his gaze sweeping through it.

"Just who is this Tian Yang, and why does the Giant Emperor want to fight him?" Huang Xiao Li mumbled in a dazed voice as she stared at the massive giant standing outside the city.

"Who knows…" Yuan shrugged.

Despite being very confident in his own strength, Yuan knew that he was not an opponent for Giant Emperor Kulas, who appeared to be above Spirit Sovereign.

Therefore, he decided to ignore Giant Emperor Kulas' entire existence by pretending to not see him.

"I'm going to cultivate." Yuan said as he returned to his room.

However, he would soon realize that was an impossible feat with the Giant Emperor shouting his name every few minutes.

"Tian Yang! You dare ignore me?!"

"Get your ass out here!"

"Tian Yang!"

"I have all day!"

"I will stand here until you leave!"

Giant Emperor Kulas made it impossible for the residents of the city to have a peaceful mind and impossible to cultivate. However, none of the giants complained. They wouldn't dare to complain even if Giant Emperor Kulas decided to erase their city from the continent.

In the Giant's Continent, Giant Emperor Kulas was nature and the law. Whatever he says goes.

However, while the giants could not do anything about Giant Emperor Kulas, they could do something about this Tian Yang.

"This Tian Yang is ignoring His Majesty's summoning and making His Majesty wait! The audacity!"

"Yeah! Let's find this bastard for His Majesty!"

"Drag out this Tian Yang from whatever rathole he's hiding in!"

Eventually, all of the giants in the city began looking for this Tian Yang.

"I think this Tian Yang is a human!"

"Yeah! No giant would ever disobey His Majesty so openly!"

"Gather all of the humans in this city! We must find this Tian Yang at all cost!"

The giants in the city began gathering all of the humans they could find outside the city, where Giant Emperor Kulas was waiting.

"Yuan! The hotel staff are telling us that we need to gather with the other humans outside the city!" Huang Xiao Li called for him outside his room.

"Seriously?" Yuan rubbed his eyes in a stressful manner after hearing her words.

'Is it impossible to avoid the Giant Emperor? Do I really have to fight him?' He wondered as he opened the door and went outside.

"It's alright, you guys can stay here." Yuan said to the Huang Family after leaving his room.

"Huh? Did you not hear me? They want every human in the city to gather outside the city! They could kill us if we refuse! This is all because of Tian Yang who's been ignoring the Giant Emperor!" Huang Xiao Li gritted her teeth in frustration.

"I'm telling you that it's fine. Nothing will happen. Because I am Tian Yang." Yuan revealed this fact to them.

"Y-You're Tian Yang…?" They all stared at him with shocked faces.

"Well… I am Yuan, but I am also Tian Yang. It's a nickname." He said with a bittersweet smile.

"Isn't this your first time to the Giant's Continent? Why would you know the Giant Emperor if that was the case? And why are you avoiding him?" Huang Chen frowned, becoming suspicious of Yuan's identity.

"This is really my first time coming to the Giant's Continent. As for the Giant Emperor… I met him outside the Giant's Continent. And the reason I am avoiding him is because I don't want to fight him." Yuan shrugged, making up all sorts of excuses.

"Anyways, since they're going through this much trouble to bring me out, I will go have a chat with the Giant Emperor."

"Yuan! Whatever you do, do not offend the Giant Emperor! He is literally 'Heaven' to the giants! You don't want to offend someone like him, especially not in his territory!" Huang Xiao Li warned him.

"I won't." Yuan said before flying out of the window and towards the giant outside the city.

When Giant Emperor Kulas saw Yuan flying towards him, he started laughing out loud, "There you are, Tian Yang! Did you not hear me calling for you? Why were you hiding from me? Did you not want to fight me?!"

The giants in the city stopped their movements after hearing Giant Emperor Kulas' words, and they all silently spectated the situation.

"I'm here on private business, so of course I don't want to fight you. I don't want to attract too much attention, after all." Yuan said.

"Hahaha! That's a load of bullshit! If you didn't want to fight me, why would you use that technique?! You're clearly provoking me!"

"Technique? What technique?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Still acting dumb? Or do you believe that I had forgotten about it? Too bad for you, I have never forgotten about that golden aura of yours since our last fight! I came here the moment I sensed it!" Giant Emperor Kulas said.

Yuan's eyes widened with surprise after hearing the true purpose of Giant Emperor Kulas' visit.

'He came here because he sensed my golden aura? Does he know something about it? If he does, I must ask him!'

This is the first time that someone besides Tian Yang knew something about his golden aura, and this could be his opportunity to learn something about it.

"Since you seem to know so much about the golden aura, why don't you tell me everything you know about it? If you do, I will fight you."

Giant Emperor Kulas did not immediately respond to him.

After a moment of silence, he spoke, "I didn't notice it at first due to my excitement, but what happened to your cultivation base? Why are you so pitifully weak? I wouldn't enjoy beating you in your current state."

Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking, "I was injured not long ago, and that affected my cultivation."

Giant Emperor Kulas narrowed his eyes at Yuan.

"Forget it then. I don't want to fight you in your current state. Come back when you're stronger."

And without saying anything else, Giant Emperor Kulas turned around and walked away, leaving Yuan utterly speechless.

'This fucker! How can he leave things like this?! He came here so suddenly and even caused such a commotion! Is the Stairway to Heaven trying to tease me?!'

However, Giant Emperor Kulas stopped after taking a few steps.

He turned around and looked at Yuan.

"My family is hosting a tournament next month. If you win it, I will tell you everything I know about the golden aura. See you there."

After saying such words, Giant Emperor Kulas leaped into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.

'The tournament? Unless it's going to happen in the next trial, I will most likely have to wait until I ascend to the Fourth Heaven…' He sighed inwardly.

Yuan returned to the Huang Family shortly after.

"Are you okay? What happened? Why did the Giant Emperor leave so suddenly?"

"It's nothing much. He wants me to participate in the tournament next month— the one Sorgi talked about. However, that isn't possible since I will be leaving this place with your family before it can happen."

Huang Xiao Li immediately began pondering.

After a moment of silence, she turned to look at her father and spoke, "Father, I have a request!"

"I think I have an idea about what you're going to ask me, but ask away anyway…"

"Let's stay in the Giant's Continent for a little longer! We can leave after the tournament! I really want to see Yuan fighting against the other giants, especially after what I witnessed today! It's going to be amazing!"

Huang Chen sighed after hearing his daughter's request.

He turned to look at Yuan and asked him a moment later, "What do you think? Do you want to participate in this tournament? Since the Giant Emperor is expecting your presence there, I cannot be the reason why you miss it."

Yuan nodded, "I would like to participate in the tournament."

"Then it's settled. We'll stay here for a couple more weeks." Huang Chen declared.

"Thank you, Senior Huang." Yuan said to him.

"There's no need to thank me. You saved my family's lives more than once, after all. And I also want to see how you will fare against the strongest giants in the continent. However, since the location of the tournament is a little far away, we will need to start making our way there right now if we want to make it there in time for the tournament. As for my business, it can wait until we reach the capital. I will have a higher chance of acquiring more valuable treasures over there than here." Huang Chen said.
