"What..." Cosimo was momentarily stunned. He could feel the movements from the other side of the Beast Fighting Arena growing increasingly intense; initially, it was merely like the tide rising in the sea, but eventually evolved into something akin to a tsunami about to arrive. The heavens and earth subtly shifted colors, the dust and sand within several dozen meters got swept up into the wind and snow!
The endless wind and snow instantly wrapped the sled and reindeer into a blaze white giant serpent.
At the same time, the giant serpent moved.
It slithered forward at an unprecedented speed, causing the entire Beast Fighting Arena to tremble as if in an earthquake.
The Cerberus charging head-on and the Octave Prism speeding along were simultaneously engulfed by the giant serpent, losing all motion in an instant, like climbers falling into a bottomless valley without a trace of echo.
Cosimo’s eyes reflected the avalanche-like incoming serpent, his pupils shrinking to the size of malt. His golden hair and robes were blown high, and his body trembled as he stepped back, yet no matter how he retreated, he couldn’t stop the approaching giant creature.
"Impossible... this is impossible..." Cosimo hoarsely murmured.
He staggered, fell onto the yellow sand, propped his elbows against the sand trying to stand up but couldn’t... The enormous snow serpent drew closer, casting a shadow that blanketed the entire arena, engulfing Cosimo’s figure within it.
Cosimo’s fearful scream was drowned out by the roaring wind and snow. He hugged his head with both hands and closed his eyes.
The next instant, a dark golden tower suddenly stood tall in front of the snow serpent, revealed to be Lewis’s wonder "Tower of Babylon."
The frenzy serpent created by the sled roared and crashed into the giant tower; at that moment, it was like a thousand bronze bells rang simultaneously, the tower’s body trembled violently amidst the roar, and a massive crater gradually formed on its surface.
Several seconds later, the snow and wind covering the reindeer and sled slowly receded, and the gigantic shadow of the Tower of Babel also vanished from the arena.
Lewis breathed a sigh of relief, bitterly smiled while scratching his brown long hair, eyes flickering as he murmured, "Really remarkable... this Third Prince."
Li Qingping was stunned: "Did Prince Cezar almost breach the Tower of Babel’s defense?"
The rest of the Royal Court Team members also appeared amazed.
The shadow that covered the sky and sun faded away, exposing Cezar’s figure to everyone’s view.
He stepped down from the sled, his feet touched the yellow sand.
In the silence, he walked expressionlessly toward the kneeling Cosimo, his lowered bangs shielding his expression.
After a moment, Cezar stopped in front of Cosimo, looking down at him with a gaze that seemed almost pitying, then stretched out his hand:
"Brother... you lost."
Cosimo followed that slender hand, dazedly looking up. The white-haired youth was backlit by the sun, his face indifferent in the shadow, azure pupils shining brightly. His eyes were so cold they seemed capable of capturing souls, resembling a beast poised to devour.
In the next second, scattered applause broke the silence first, quickly followed by an overwhelming cheer erupting in the stands.
Cosimo gradually regained his composure, reached out to take Cezar’s right hand, and slowly stood up.
Cezar suddenly smiled at him, just like the usual gentle youth, "I was only joking, how did brother get so scared..."
He paused: "Yikar should have been more frightened when you chopped off his head."
Having said that, he withdrew his right hand, boarded the speeding Christmas Sled, and urged the reindeer toward the royal stand.
In the twilight glow, he lifted his azure gaze, quietly gazing at Lorenzo sitting in the stand.
Under the blood-red skies, their gazes met, as applause and cheers were about to drown the entire world.
