He Started A War, Conquered The World novel Chapter 2518

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 accepting my challenge,” Karsten replied with a smile.

“Are you worried that they would become 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'll come back to challenge them once they have completed their solitary training. I'll skip them for the time being,” Karsten laughed 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 similar organizations would notice easily.

Consequently, Zoey and her comrades 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 or later, 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 preoccupied 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.
