Chapter 1004: Not So Small
Chapter 1004: Not So Small
Foley felt death approaching him, prompting him to immediately go all out. His Divine Energy burst out of his body as Earth Element gathered around him to form a barrier. However, the attack he was expecting to come didn’t arrive. In fact, the moment his Earth Barrier appeared, Roan’s Death World disappeared, shining light in Foley’s eyes once more.
*Clang…*
Foley was left confused for a moment. What was that sound he had just heard? Only then did he look at it to see what it was. “M-My Anti-Soul Power Plate…”
He then looked at Rean and Roan, who had returned to their previous position as if nothing had happened. Their Anti-Soul Power Plates were still in the air, floating as if nothing had happened.
How could Foley not understand what happened? Because he felt the threat of losing his life, he completely ignored his own plate. After all, what use would it be to keep the plate floating if he died while doing that? Naturally, his plate fell as a result. It’s just that the twins never intended to hurt him from the very start.
“You!” As one could expect, Foley’s mind was filled with anger, seeing how he fell for the twins’ trick. “Let me see how you can escape now!”
Without caring about anything else, Foley launched himself against the twins once more. However, neither Rean nor Roan moved a single muscle until…
*Bang!*
Foley was hit by something that sent him flying far away from the twins. He vomited blood straight away and almost died from the impact. Obviously, the one who attacked him was several times stronger. Foley then looked at who it was before hitting the ground. It was none else other than Erfalis, the one responsible for this test.
“You piece of shit! Your plate has already fallen to the ground, yet you’re still trying to cause trouble? Consider yourself lucky that I didn’t kill you right now.” Erfalis then looked at his subordinates, ordering them, “He is disqualified from this and all other categories. Send this piece of trash to the elders of the Ostrao Sect.”
“Yes, Senior Erfalis!” Sure enough, they quickly brought Foley away.
However, Foley wasn’t the only one to fail in this test. As mentioned before, several cultivators also attacked other groups. Some succeeded, others didn’t. It’s just that once their plates fell to the ground, they understood that they got disqualified and didn’t do anything else. They could still participate in the other categories later since they respected the rules of not intervening with those still in the competition.
Sansa, Oglico, Ancel, and a few other top participants were all targeted by other cultivators, just like Rean and Roan. Nevertheless, they seemed completely fine as they kept their plates floating. Each of them defeated their opponents without much issue.
However, Rean and Roan were still the only ones who won their fight so easily. They didn’t have to hit their opponent at all before they forced the enemy to be disqualified. That’s why Foley was so angry. Rean and Roan had the lowest cultivation between those in the second test. However, he lost so shamefully because of his fear of death.
In the elders’ room, everyone tried to understand what Rean and Roan did. Unfortunately, their Divine Senses couldn’t enter the testing room. Not to mention that Roan’s Death World turned everything around him and Rean into pure darkness. It was simply impossible to tell what happened inside that forced Foley to drop his Anti-Soul Power Plate.
In the competition, they had a bad feeling about it, be it Sansa, Oglico, Ancel, or the remaining ones. Divine Sense was much more restricted in the Divine Realm. Since Rean and Roan had purposely stayed far away from the main group, their Divine Sense couldn’t reach the dark area Roan created with his Death World.
The only ones who saw what happened were the cultivators around the twins, Erfalis and Fabio. Of course, Erfalis and Fabio wouldn’t tell others about how the events played inside the Death World. Then again, nor would the cultivators close to the twins do so since they didn’t want to help others to start with.
There was a problem, though. Rean, Roan, and Sansa were far ahead in points. Oglico, Ancel, Difran, Samu, and the others had to find a way to get rid of those three, or they wouldn’t be able to catch up to their points.
Naturally, they understood that they would need to join hands to make those three fail. Then, they could use the third test to try and take the first position in the Soul Power competition.
Of course, they weren’t the only ones to think of that. Sansa and the other Soul Guild’s disciple, who was called Hudi, understood that as well. There were more Soul Guild members before, but they were already disqualified. At first, they intended to defend themselves alone. However, after seeing Rean and Roan’s display, they thought that perhaps joining hands with them wouldn’t be too bad. The only question was whether it was safe or not since they also didn’t understand Roan’s Death World.
Hudi then looked at Sansa and told her, ‘We need to act now. Oglico and the others will definitely come to an agreement soon.’
Sansa narrowed her eyes but could only nod. Surprisingly, however, she didn’t need to move to where the twins were staying. That’s because Rean and Roan suddenly moved in their direction at full speed. ‘What?! Are they planning to take us down?!’
They weren’t the only ones thinking that. The only problem was their cultivation difference. Others thought that it was the right decision, though. If their trick could work on Sansa and Hudi, Rean and Roan would eliminate their main competitor. After all, Oglico’s group was far behind them in points.
Sansa and Hudi prepared to defend themselves. At the same time, Roan activated his Death World, which made everyone conclude that the twins really wanted to take Sansa out of the picture.
Oglico, Ancel, Difran, Samu, and a few others also got close, preparing to take action against the ones who survived that aftermath.
Unfortunately for them, Roan had never been the type to stay on the defensive. Besides…even with the Realm of Gods ‘ restrictions, Roan’s Death World had never been so small as twenty meters. It was definitely several times smaller than what he could do in the Realm of Mortals with his actual cultivation. However, twenty meters would just be an understatement. Even in the Realm of Gods, Roan’s Death World could reach up to… 110 meters!
