Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 77: End Of The Preliminaries

Time passed as it was almost the end of the preliminaries.

Davis was in a good mood these four days. He felt ecstatic as he thought that he managed to leave an impression on her. But most importantly, he felt that their relationship would move forward a little as well.

After that, he thought that seizing the first position was a drag, so he and Ellia stopped hunting for tokens altogether.

It didn't take them long to realize that their positions stayed stable as all the weak opponents had been eliminated from the preliminaries so far.

So they explored the Island and enjoyed the scenery as if they were on a vacation. It was a refresher as they didn't have to see blood and kill people. And of course, during this time, they encountered a little stronger opponents than the usual teams, but they still didn't opt to fight them but instead, chose to steer away.

"Brave youths of the Grand Sea Continent Meet, I hereby announce the end of the preliminaries. The Top 100,000 positions will move on to the next round. The others will have to return to their designated ships if they are alive."

A solemn voice echoed throughout the Island as it marked the 10 day period of the preliminaries come to an end.

It continued, "Those who have passed the preliminaries will move onto a ship that holds the flag of the Guardian Alliance and hand over your tokens."

The Guardian Alliance Ship flag was yellow in colour with a shield of different colours in the centre. It sailed from the First Island to the Twelfth Island picking up the contestants who were in the Top 100,000.

It was pretty quick as everyone knew their own rankings, and the ship released a signal, indicating its position to the participants, making it easier for them to head over to the ship.

They then handed over their tokens to the staff on the ship as they went to their designated rooms.

The ship was big as the first ship they came in, so there was plenty of space to accommodate the remaining Top 100,000 participants. They were all satisfied as this was a luxurious ship with plenty of delicacies and services.

The youths who were in the ship started to imagine their glorious future as the ship sailed to a new Island.

"I wonder what the second round entails?"

"Hey look at that, she's hot, go talk to her."

"No way man, she's way out of my league!"

Various conversations ran through the ship as everyone started to either give up and enjoy the ride or get nervous and stayed in their room, preparing to compete for the Top 1000 positions. Only a few who had faith in their abilities were carefree as they knew that they would advance into the Top 1000 positions.

Suddenly, a voice echoed in the ship solemnly.

"Victors of the preliminaries, I will now explain the second round of the Grand Sea Continent Meet!"

"The second round is to hunt magical beasts!"

"What!?"

"Magical Beasts! I knew it!"

"Whatever, it is better than killing people…"

Everyone had different reactions when they heard that they have to hunt Magical Beasts.

But most people felt happy as they didn't have to needlessly kill anymore due to survival.

Somewhere in the ship, in a certain room.

"Isn't that good?" Davis asked

"Yes! But a beast? I've never fought them before…" Ellia replied meekly, totally different from the way she used to behave during a battle.

"Don't worry, I haven't fought them before as well. We'll stick together as we try to kill them one by one!"

That solemn voice which waited for the youngsters to digest its words, echoed again as if mocking Davis's words, "I will explain what exactly the second round involves. Each of you will hunt for the magical beasts individually, so if anyone of you is found hunting a magical beast with another participant, you will be immediately disqualified without any delay. Robbing is also forbidden as this round only depends on your ability to hunt magical beasts!"

A clamour broke out in the ship as everyone who tried to get lucky through their teamwork felt dejected. But no one can change the rules, so they continued listening.

"After you arrive on the island, each of you will be given a spatial bag, in which you will store the cores of the Magical Beasts you personally hunt!"

"The cores of the magical beasts also contain fixed points. A Low-Level Mortal Beast Stage Core will give you 5 points."

"A Mid-Level Mortal Beast Stage Core will give you 10 points."

"A High-Level Mortal Beast Stage Core will give you 20 points."

"A Peak-Level Mortal Beast Stage Core will give you 50 points."

"A Low-Level Earth Beast Stage Core will give you 100 points."

"A Mid-Level Earth Beast Stage Core will give you 200 points."

"A High-Level Earth Beast Stage Core will give you 300 points."

"A Peak-Level Earth Beast Stage Core will give you 500 points."

"A Low-Level Sky Beast Stage Core will give you 1500 points."

"A Mid-Level Sky Beast Stage Core will give you 3000 points."

"A High-Level Sky Beast Stage Core will give you 5000 points."

"A Peak-Level Sky Beast Stage Core will give you 10000 points."

"A Low…*cough* That island doesn't have a 4th Stage Beast so you can relax."

Everybody had black lines on their face as they heard the voice continued speaking even more after a Peak-Level Sky Beast Stage Magical Beast. But after they heard the voice comforting them, they couldn't help but laugh and relax.

'That voice made their nervousness go away in an instant' Davis thought as he sensed the atmosphere in the ship visibly relax.

A Sky Beast Stage Magical Beast can possibly kill them even when they work together as a team. So what is the possible result when they confront one individually? It is almost certain death. This made them nervous and sent them panicking before the voice made them relax again.

Magical Beasts are inherently stronger than humans!

Unless one trains in at least two of the Cultivation Systems, one cannot hope to fight equally with them unless their battle prowess is higher than the norm.
