"Nonsense," Minos muttered as he felt a level 98 Demigod acting without restraint against him, a clear sign of respect from his opponent, who knew that Emperor Stuart was not to be taken lightly.

Even before stealing Ayla's cultivation to reach level 93, Minos was strong enough to escape the level 98 elder's attack. He quickly dodged the many trees that tried to reach him with their branches and roots.

He flew at high speed and quickly arrived where Ayla was.

Standing behind her without giving her a chance to react, he grabbed her neck, making her weaker as he became more powerful.

"I would have fought you differently, fairly. But since your elder is interfering, I'm afraid I'll have to be a little rough with you." He muttered before throwing her to the ground, giving her no chance to react, defend, or prepare.

"Aaaaagh!"

 After Ayla's long, high-pitched cry of pain, Minos pushed her aside to take care of the level 98 elder.
