    Chapter 2518 Research Results


    Karsten, the heir to the Divine Extraction Technique, arrived in North Hampton as he worked his way up


    the list.


    However, he was told that Kirin and the others were all in solitary training.


    “They can continue with their training after epting my challenge,” Karsten replied with a smile.


    “Are you worried that they would be stronger after their solitary training and defeat you? Is that


    why you insist on challenging them first?” Wynona, who was keeping watch, sneered.


    “Fine. Forget it. I’lle back to challenge them once they havepleted their solitary training. I’ll


    skip them for the time being,” Karstenughed before leaving.


    In truth, there wasn’t much point in challenging them other than to absorb their powers.


    Hence, if he insisted on extracting their powers, something untoward might happen and draw


    unnecessary attention to him.


    Given that it wasn’t worth the risk, Karsten only dared to absorb the powers of those whom he


    challenged.


    If he randomly extracted the powers of someone else, The Cardinal Hall and other simr organizations


    would notice easily.


    Consequently, Zoey and herrades managed to dodge a bullet.


    Or else, they would have been killed during Karsten’s challenge.


    As for Wynona and the others, none of them expected someone so ordinary-looking to be on the cusp


    of shocking the world.


    Meanwhile, Karsten’s next step was to continue challenging the warriors on the Provisional


    Leaderboard.


    Naturally, he too was challenged every so often by other warriors. With his good results and consistent


    wins, Karsten was soon one of the top fighters on the Provisional Leaderboard.


    Furthermore, all his opponents met the same fate.


    They too had their lives sucked out of them.


    Cognizant that he would be exposed sooner orter, Karsten knew that he had to make hay while the


    sun still shone.


    He had to build a solid foundation before his secret was revealed.


    At the same time, Lab of Gods was providing him with support in the shadows.


    They had sent hundreds of warriors to challenge those on the Divine and Provisional Leaderboard,


    wreaking havoc everywhere.


    In truth, their main purpose was to provide cover for Karsten’s actions.


    That way, everyone’s attention would be diverted away from him. It then allowed him to stay under the


    radar.


    Hence, Levi was the only one who could possibly notice him.


    Unfortunately, Levi was too preupied with saving Kirin and the others that he didn’t have the time.


    Furthermore, it wasn’t like Lab of Gods had made their move. Hence, he wasn’t bothered about getting


    involved.


    After all, he had no interest in the change in ranks of the Divine Leaderboard.


    No matter how much turmoil there was on the leaderboard, his alter egos still upied the top three


    ces.


    And that wasn’t going to change.


    No matter how strong the opponents are, there’s no way they can be stronger than the Gods of


    Restricted Area 76. If one punch isn’t enough, I’ll send a second one.


    Levi, who was the only person to potentially notice the problem, wasn’t even bothered with it.


    Consequently, Karsten had a lot of time and space to let his strength mature properly.


    Meanwhile, the Dark Web was likely aware of what was going on. However, given their neutrality, they


    wouldn’t reveal the extent of Karsten’s true power.


    Furthermore, the change in ranks was determined by the challenges and not based on their true


    strength.


    In other words, the Dark Web had only coted the names of all the elite fighters.


    However, the changes in actual ranks were being determined by therge organizations instead.


    After every challenge, there would be a reshuffling of names.


    Ten dayster, Karsten had defeated everyone listed on the ny-ninth step. Thus, he was only one


    step away from being promoted to the Divine Leaderboard.


    Fifteen dayster, Karsten’s name was officially added to the bottom of the Divine Leaderboard.


    From that moment on, he couldn’t avoid being noticed no matter how hard he tried to keep away from


    the public eye.


    Nevertheless, he still hadn’t caught the entire world’s attention yet.


    Therefore, he still had time to continue growing stronger and elevating his skills.


    Also, Lab of Gods had sent men to help him divert the public’s attention, allowing him to continue with


    his n.


    They had expected him to only begin attracting attention once he reached the top hundred of the Divine


    Leaderboard.


    However, that wasn’t Karsten’s goal.


    He wished to only be noticed when he was in the top ten of the Divine Leaderboard.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    The reason was that he wanted to absorb more energy from his opponents first.


    Consequently, he needed Lab of Gods to help him buy more time while he went around doing that.


    In fact, he could absorb all sorts of energy from his opponents, not just their powers.


    While Karsten was working hard toward his goal, Kirin and hisrades were also doing the same.


    In fact, they were about to reach the peak of their powers.


    Meanwhile, Azure Dragon had spent half a month on his research and finally had the results.
