All Gods: I Became a God by Loading Templates

A calm, shallow pool was now surrounded by people.

The elders of all the tribes in Wakanda gathered here.

Of course, the main characters are only the people from the five major tribes; the other tribes are just spectators and witnesses.

This is the venue where kings have challenged each other in arena matches for thousands of years.

The seemingly calm shallow pool is flanked by mountain walls with carved-out platforms on one side, and a canyon on the other.

The seemingly calm water surface actually has a rapid current.

The continuously falling water forms a curtain-like waterfall.

Below the waterfall flows a roaring river.

If you accidentally fall in, you'll either be swept underwater and hit a reef, or you'll drown. The water level is so high that it's almost the same as falling from a five or six-story building; the only difference is between grass and concrete.

Originally, the elders of the five major tribes should have gathered together.

However, due to Azuri's capture, the Black Panther tribe was temporarily placed under the responsibility of Ramanda.

The same applies to the white apes of the White Ape Tribe, who are in charge of the tribe's second-in-command, Tam.

The five tribes stood in one corner, and these elders either planned to go up themselves or had strong tribal warriors standing behind them.

Their gazes swept back and forth aggressively, while they waved their arms, trying to tell others that they were not to be trifled with.

But on this rare and auspicious day, who can be fooled by such tricks?

Today is the day to elect a new king. According to Wakanda's rules, the king can only be born from one of the five tribes, because only the people of these five tribes have royal blood.

Chapter 172

"Woooooo~"

As the horns sounded, the tribal warriors who could not participate in the struggle for the throne could only strike with their spears.

It splashes water, or it hits the rocks.

He was shouting.

Amidst this solemn and respectful atmosphere, five warriors slowly emerged from the crowd.

Even the Black Panther tribe had no choice but to submit to this long-standing tradition, but unfortunately, there were hardly any people left in the Black Panther tribe to use.

The one who emerged from the border tribes to vie for the throne was Kandam.

No one was particularly surprised, after all, Kandam had already defected. And Kandam was in his prime.

Everyone initially thought that Kandam's audacity meant he was absolutely certain of victory.

But now we see Kandam wearing only a pair of underwear.

I haven't exercised in a long time, and now I have a belly. It wasn't noticeable when I was wearing clothes, but now it's not.

Haha~

The elders looked at Kandam with disdain.

Kandam was still there, raising his hands and cheering, completely oblivious to the fact that he was doing so.

His opponents, on the other hand, were all seasoned veterans who trained every day.

You can tell just by looking at their muscles.

If a fight really breaks out...

Will Kandam get killed?

Among everyone present, Ramanda was the one who most hoped that Kandam would die in the match.

At this moment, Lamanda was whispering to her tribal warrior.

"Kandam, let the throne be passed on to the successor!"

The elder of the river tribe, with a strange expression, kindly offered his advice.

Everyone knows Kandal covets the throne; who wouldn't be eyeing it? But when he personally steps in, things become uncertain.

These elders then dispatched the strongest warriors from their tribes.

Anyway, they won, so we didn't lose anything.

Wouldn't it be better to be an emperor emeritus?

It would be better to give the opportunity to young people, so they don't get beaten to death on the spot and embarrass themselves in front of everyone.

Although the banquet was a very enjoyable experience.

The other two elders had watched Kandam grow up.

"Don't worry about it, I will be the next king of Wakanda." Kandam grinned maliciously, applying face paint as he went.

A physique achieved through neglecting exercise is merely an illusion.

The five tribes each have their own beliefs; the Black Panther tribe worships the Black Panther God, while the Border Tribes worship the Lion God.

Kandam knew his own strength and that he could not possibly compete with these carefully selected tribal warriors, but he was unwilling to give up the opportunity to become king.

When they were still playmates, the two had a very good relationship, you could say they were friends who peed and played in the mud together.

But things started to change as they grew up.

Azuri became king.

When his brother was doing better than him, the disparity in their status made Kandam feel so bad that he wanted to cry.

In particular, Kandam, who was being crushed in many ways, such as in terms of love, wealth, and power, longed to take his place.

Kandam had been quietly waiting for his opportunity all along.

The only way for him to become king is to succeed his eldest nephew in his succession ceremony.

Kandam made many preparations for this.

In order to make oneself strong and not let one's strength decline with age.

So he commanded the Lion Cult of his tribe.

They secretly killed a legendary black panther, and through an ancient ritual, consumed its flesh and blood to gain the beast's power.

He now possesses superhuman strength, endurance, and reaction speed, and his lifespan has been greatly extended.

This immense power is the source of Kandam's confidence; he's confident he's in the right to claim the throne.

The bugle calls grew more urgent, and the shouts of the warriors became increasingly intense.

Finally, amidst the cheers of the crowd, all sound abruptly ceased.

This also signifies the official start of the battle for the throne, with the last one standing becoming the new king of Wakanda.

The King's Challenge uses a ring match rule, where being the first to enter the arena doesn't necessarily give you an advantage; finding an opening is also an art.

The challenge has officially begun.

Kandam, holding a wooden spiked club, stood directly in the middle of the pool.

"Ahhhhhh!"

Kandam roared, displaying a lung capacity far beyond his years.

The crowd frowned slightly.

Although the noise was impressive, a fight isn't about who shouts the loudest.

The warrior of the Black Panther tribe, wielding a long spear, pushed aside the challengers around him and stood opposite Kandam.

Kandam's lips curled into a disdainful smile. Although he didn't know the specifics of Ramanda's earlier whispers, he could guess what they were.

Kandam bent his legs and kicked out hard, leaving a splash of water behind.

He rushed towards the warriors of the Black Panther tribe with great speed, and in just two seconds, he was already in front of the warriors representing the Black Panther tribe.

"Lie down!" Kandam shouted, swinging the spiked club he was holding.

The speed was too fast. The Black Panther tribe warrior only had time to raise his spear to block before he was hit by the spiked club that came whistling like a cannonball. He was sent flying backward and crashed heavily against the rock wall next to him.

Kandam's unexpected performance left everyone speechless. Except for the border tribes who cheered and danced, the hearts of the other tribes sank.

“How is that possible? This power is definitely not something Kandam could possess. He must have secretly taken the heart-shaped herb.”

“He has broken the rules; one must never take heart-shaped herbs in the competition for the throne.”

Several elders did not want Kandam to ascend the throne so easily, and they all accused him of violating the rules and wanted to disqualify him from running for the throne.

"You bunch of idiots, it's not only the heart-shaped herb that can make people powerful, the Lion God is the most powerful god." Kandam sneered.

The elders had no choice but to send their tribe's warriors to challenge the challenge.

Unfortunately, these three tribal warriors were no match for Kandam and were taken down one by one before they could even withstand a single round.

Like bullying a three-year-old child, the three were defeated very quickly, completely unable to resist.

"From this day forward, I am the new king of Wakanda!" Kandam roared with laughter. "My first decree as king is that the Lion Cult shall become the sole faith of Wakanda."

"This is impossible!"

The Black Panther tribe was outraged, and Ramanda directly accused them: "The Black Panther God is the symbol of Wakanda's unity. The Lion God you speak of is just an evil god who brings war. He has no right to replace the Black Panther God."

The other three elders were also furious. Wakanda's main religion was the Black Panther God, but that did not mean it was a single religion. There were also many who worshipped crocodile totems, lion totems, and hyena totems. Kandal's attempt to wipe them all out immediately provoked a strong backlash.

"Hahaha, I knew you wouldn't accept this!" Kandam laughed loudly. "My second order as king is to exterminate all of you rebels. Warriors of the tribe, the time has come to fight for the Lion God."

As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of warriors from the border tribes rushed out from all four sides of the breach, and a massacre ensued.

No one expected that Kandam would be so unruly as to lead his troops to ambush this sacred place.

These elders didn't bring many men with them, and the tribal warriors responsible for air defense numbered only a dozen or so. They couldn't hold them off at all and could only cover the elders as they fled back to their tribe to gather more men.

And they spread the news of Kandal's rebellion.

But Kandam wouldn't let these elders escape so easily.

Kandam had prepared ample manpower early on and surrounded the area.

"call out!"
