Chapter 1147: Rounds
There weren’t many issues in their flag battle. Rean and Milina were indeed stronger than their opponents. Regio also joined in on the attack as there were three people defending the flag. Samanta stayed on the sides, providing support to those three. Then again, she was basically supporting Regio as Rean and Milina had little to no trouble dispatching their enemies.
Nevertheless, part of the reason why they lost was that their opponents hadn’t fully recovered from the last match. Rean’s group noticed that their reserves of Divine Energy weren’t full, so that helped with their demise. Not too long after, all three of those guys had their protective devices activate, officially being out.
Of course, this was a demon beast forest, so the demon beasts nearby heard the commotion and came out to attack. In any case, it was well within what they could manage.
Rean then took the flag before using his Light and Divine Sense bending skill to move back to Roan’s place with his group. Back where their flag was located, they saw two more cultivators with activated protective devices and Roan sitting on top of a demon beast’s carcass. There were a few more demon beast bodies in the surroundings, all cleaved in half. “Is there a need to transform this place into a gore scene?” Rean could not help but ask.
Roan glanced at him in response and said, “I simply killed them as fast as possible. Since there were quite a few, it turned out like this. Anyway, just bring the flag here already.”
Samanta, Regio, and Milina couldn’t help but feel a chill on their backs. Roan not only dealt with the enemy’s group, but he also fought several demon beasts on his own. Not to mention that he didn’t look tired at all. Milina had a lot of confidence in her strength in this test. However, even she didn’t know if she could do what Roan did.
Rean’s group then came out of their spatial door while the Sacred Land took out the enemy team away to heal them. They were also the first team that got outside since the match was over the moment all Waxsia Country participants were defeated. Bringing the flag back to their flag wasn’t really necessary.
However, it was then that Rean noticed something. “Milina…aren’t you somewhat slimmer?”
Samanta, Regio, and Roan looked at her and had to admit Rean was right.
Milina then laughed before explaining through a Divine Sense Message. ‘Hahaha! Of course! After all, I’m using my body’s Divine Energy to fight at the Saint Realm level. Don’t forget that this is my race’s special ability. However, it takes very long to recover the Divine Energy used, so I’m obviously becoming slimmer. Don’t worry, though. I’m pretty confident that I have enough to last until the end of the battles.’
Milina then winked at Rean, Roan, and Regio. ‘Just don’t fall in love with me after seeing how I look without Divine Energy inflating my body.’
Roan completely ignored the last comment, and so did Regio. Rean just laughed in response since he found that funny. “Alright, alright. Look, someone else is coming out of the spatial doors.”
The next group to appear was Klacks Country, with Hedoi leading them. Hedoi also looked at Rean’s group and smirked at them. “I’ll see you guys later.”
Following that, the five cultivators of his opposing group were brought outside. Just like Rean’s group, Hedoi’s group had defeated all their opponents. Of course, they were all alive and didn’t receive any lasting injury due to the protection device. It’s just that they had terrified expressions on their faces.
Milina couldn’t help but tremble a little after seeing that. “That guy is really creepy.”
Everyone agreed with her.
The second round continued as the scoring board took form. With their quick victory, Rean’s group shot up in the rankings, stabilizing in 15th. At the moment, 179 countries had 6 points. Tenke Country was still in first place, though. They won their matches faster than anyone else, after all.
The third round wasn’t any different. Liana’s Tenke Country smashed their way through the enemy and got another swift victory, keeping their first position in the ranks with nine points now. Venali’s Huring Country group wasn’t any different but was still a little slower than Liana’s. With that said, they kept their second position with nine points as well.
Rean’s group didn’t find any issues during the third round either. They fought group number 98, Kembit Country. The environment for this match was an island, with both flags being located on opposite sides on the beach. Using the same strategy, Roan defended their flag while Rean and Milina overpowered their enemies. The only difference was that Kembit Country wasn’t feeling tired like Wasxia was. Because of that, the battle lasted a lot longer, especially because they kept four people defending their flag.
The leader of Kembit Country was very confident in his strength, so he was the only one to go after the enemy’s team flag. Roan understood why the guy came alone. He had a similar cloning ability, just like the twins. The guy used a clone to catch Roan’s attention while his real body tried to capture Roan’s flag.
The plan failed, but he still fought Roan in the Death World for several moves, showing that he wasn’t just a common cultivator. He could also use his clones to fight Roan’s clones. Roan won in the end, but it was definitely not a walk in the park as in the previous matches. Well, for Roan, that was a lot better. He stopped in front of the guy’s protected body and nodded in satisfaction. “Your cloning ability is very well-refined. However, you’re wasting too much Divine Energy to have them follow your commands. Try to set up some patterns beforehand next time, and you should improve even more.”
The guy’s eyes moved a little in the protective barrier, but he couldn’t answer Roan at that moment.
In the end, Rean’s group had to bring the Kembit Country’s flag back to their own position as their enemies tried to escape. Pursuing them would be a waste of time and Divine Energy, so they simply won the match by capturing the flag.
