The rest of the fights went on uneventfully. No other duel was fought between two members of Iewah’s children, leading to a boring and predictable spectacle. After the last of these two hundred fights, the old explorer concluded the event for the day, and teleported the remaining participants into a pocket dimension that contained a small scale city. He then invited the observers to a banquet. More than two days had passed since the beginning of the One Above All, and even for the standard of a…-

After receiving the permission to begin the fight, Nilo and the female humanoid beast stood still, and observed one another. "So, whose chosen one are you a follower of?" she asked with curiosity. Just like the students, Nilo’s group, and the others, she had felt that her opponent was different by the common participants. He was being affected by a familiar, and yet different power than the one that was affecting her. Nilo did not know much about Daniel’s circumstances. What he knew, however, was…

The fights went on one after the other. The power that these young cultivators possessed was beyond that of any of the participants who had abandoned the competition, and the spectacle that their fight caused, was on a different level of entertainment. However, not many were able to shock the observing cultivators. After all, they had seen these young men and young women compete against one another more than once in the past. After every fight, the old man was forced to repair the stage, which despite…

The moment the remaining participants were teleported away, numerous portals appeared within the various illusions. Each one led to the location where the final test would take place, which instead of being only projected in the form of an illusion by a large formation, was in fact a real place. When this portals appeared, Daniel threw a small pebble that he was holding in between his fingers with the flick of his thumb, then walked through the portal along with the old man Golden Cauldron, the Silver…

The amount of cultivators stuck within the tower quickly began to decrease, to a point where only a few hundred participants were left climbing up. In most of the other towers, only a few tens of cultivators per island had managed to gain access, and once their numbers reached fifty, the test would end. Now that a full day had passed, only the tower where Nilo and the others were being tested was still active, with hundreds of participants stuck on the numerous floors, or trying their best to fight…

The objective of the tower was to make the participants test themselves, be it mentally or physically, and possibly break their limits. All of the participants had to go through similar tests, and were advancing at their own speed. From the outside, the observing cultivators were looking on nervously. The tower was the first test which they were unable to observe, as it contained things whose existence the Universal Government was not willing to share, or at the very least, not with those who could…

The moment the cultivators entered the smoke barrier, they found themselves alone. Their enhanced sight could only give them a view of a few meters, and the lack of natural light that was supposed to come from their backs, showed that they had been teleported somewhere else. After the murderous sense disappeared, a path made of white colored smoke formed in front of them. This path was only a few meters long, and at the end of it, was a white colored campfire, and a doorframe. Carved on the doorframe,…

"It has to be an illusion! It is not possible to create these types of golems with the immortal essence of a peak immortal! Don’t be scared! ATTACK!" Shouted Kenno to the large army that had momentarily stopped their march towards Finn and Fyro. It is important to understand that a cultivator would only be able to create a golem that was limited by the amount of immortal essence that its creator possessed. After the creation of one of these golems, a cultivator would need to wait for more immortal…

After committing these few rules to memory, the two groups moved towards the base of the tower, where they encountered one another. The group of participants that had come from temple island was much bigger than the one from Volcanic island. In their own island, during the first test, they had found themselves inside an old temple placed right in the middle of a forest. Since they did not appear to be in danger, they had taken much more time to explore their starting point, and had remained long enough…

"Everything alright?" Asked Nilo to Cynna, which had just stopped walking in their direction, and began to take off the damaged parts of her armor in order to put on one in better conditions. After taking off the damaged leather chestpiece, she turned to look back at Nilo casually, and said, "I am alright. Nothing too serious. What did you guys find in the other two paths?" "Two beasts." Responded Finn while casually cleaning his sword from what appeared to be a dense dark-colored blood-like…
