Chapter 1574 It’s Not A Battle Royal 3
[Your spirit, Muri the Helion Cyclop was killed!]
Tang Shaoyang stopped his steps, furrowing his brows. He never received a notification when his spirit died. The only way for him to know was when his spirit returned to the Spirit World and reported to him. That was how he found out if his spirit died during the summon.
He was about to speak to Muri through his telepathy, and then it was followed with another announcement.
[Your spirit, Suri the Helion Cyclop was killed!]
“Muri! Suri! Are you there!?” He called out, but there was no response.
[They are not here, Master!] It was Vandir who replied to him, not the two killed spirits.
Tang Shaoyang opened his status and checked the list of spirits to confirm the situation. With much less spirit in the list, than he originally had, it was easier to find if there were missing names. Muri and Suri were no longer on the list. Those announcements meant they were actually killed as a spirit. He was struck with a realization.
[Your spirit, Zuri the Elemental Cyclop was killed!]
[Your spirit, Nuri the Elemental Cyclop was killed!]
Hearing the two succession announcements, he immediately recalled the remaining spirits. Fortunately, the remaining spirits could be recalled.
[Why do you recall me!? We are in the middle of a fight! You are no—] Doombringer immediately protested, but Vandir cut him off.
[This is serious, Doombringer! Tell us what happened there!?]
Doombringer might see how the other spirits died, but he had not yet noticed those who died were not in the Spirit World. The behemoth was confused as it was unusual for Vandir to get this serious. The skeleton usually ignored his antics.
[You lost four spirits from your team. Do you see them here?]
Only then Doombringer realized four spirits were missing from the Spirit World. Those four spirits were the spirits in his team, the four one-eyed creatures, Cyclops. He realized why the atmosphere was so tense. That was the reason why his Master was not in the mood right now.
Doombringer shared what happened before he was recalled to the Spirit World. At first, he encountered one party at a time. It was smooth sailing from the start. They handled a party of four pretty easily with their number. Everything was fine until they could not find anyone for four hours. They could not find a single soul for seven hours, just like what happened to Tang Shaoyang’s side.
It was not until they were surrounded by hundreds of people. Doombringer was excited when he found this massive group. As a spirit, there was no consequence for him dying. He would return to the Spirit World even though he would be weakened for one week. That was the reason he did not report back to Tang Shaoyang and fought the group.
They were getting overwhelmed, but they managed to kill a lot of people. It wasn’t until too much for them, that he noticed one spirit was killed. He did not think that much until he was recalled back.
“How many are they?” Tang Shaoyang asked. The behemoth had not told him how many people were there.
Doombringer fell into silence, not because he did not want to answer his Master. It was because he did not know the actual number, and he was not bothered to count them, at all.
[It should be around six hundred or maybe even seven hundred.] Jovrick the former knight helped Doombringer. As someone who spent his life in the war, it was his habit to observe his enemy. His estimation should be around five to seven hundred people.
[They are from different races. While they conducted themselves like an army with a formation, they still lacked teamwork. That means they are not familiar with each other, which is why we could still kill more than a hundred of them. It seems like they are uniting for Your Majesty.]
Tang Shaoyang nodded as he finally figured out why he could not find any participants. It seemed the people from the Divine Church gathering the participants to kill him. The bounty was not enough, and they planned something else for him.
“Do you remember how Muri, Zuri, Nuri, and Suri get killed? Are they using specific weapons or skills?” That was the most important thing. It was to find out how they killed a spirit.
[Unfortunately, I didn’t pay attention to how they died, Your Majesty. We are being overwhelmed by numbers, so I can’t afford to split my focus.] Jovrick replied apologetically.
“Alright. I will talk with you later, Doom. For now, we have to think about how to fight them. I don’t want to lose any of you.”
It was no longer a battle royal, but him against all participants in the trial. Based on Jovrick’s estimation. They clearly failed to convince all participants, but it was still an army of God Ranks. He could not underestimate them even though he might be stronger individually compared to each of them. But this was not a duel, but a war. It was not just about him this time.

Meanwhile, on the other side, a massive group led by Bran, Donis, and Vitali. The three were the leaders of the killing Spirit Contractor operation. Bran and Donis were from the Nirvana Alliance, but they were not from the Divine Church.
Bran was from The Celestial, one of the strongest younger generations from the Nirvana Alliance. Donis was from The Metarnian Dragon Clan, one of many half-dragon clans from the Dragon Realm. Vitali was from The Lafreser Clan. The Clan was associated directly with one of the Guardian Dragons from the Dragon Realm.
Vitali joined them for a different reason, for excitement. But he used the excuse because of Tang Shaoyang’s bloodline. The cursed dragon was one of a few dragon species that got kicked out of the Dragon Realm. It was common knowledge, and even the people not from the Dragon Realm knew it.
The three were looking at the map in front of them. That was right, they had access to a map, and they could see Tang Shaoyang’s location. Not only that, they also had live surveillance on Tang Shaoyang all the time. They could see what Tang Shaoyang was doing right now.
