Is that a Wisp?
550 Top 16
The competition continued. Surprisingly, the eleventh group's seeded participant lost in the very first battle. The winner was a cultivator from Enan Universe, a relatively remote one that almost no one knew about. His name was Fabio Koltem, a Heavenly Divine Soul Owner at the peak of the Divine Path Realm.
In the thirteenth Group, Krune first battle was about to happen.
"Thirteenth Group, Luvile Universe, Krune."
"Thirteenth Group, Lowaz Universe, Vasto."
Krune's first opponent turned out to be a demon beast as well. For the participants that had no access to the broadcast, none of them knew about Krune that much. They only knew that he was a wisp, but that was basically everything. Still, a wisp was selected as a seeded participant, so Vasto did not lower his guard. As much as Vasto might think low of wisps, he knows that the Dalin Universe wouldn't select a wisp if he didn't have the strength to back his position.
Both Krune and Vasto returned to their original forms as soon as they went up in the arena. Vasto turned out to be a Dark Spiked Spider, a rare type of insect demon beast from the Lowaz Universe. Before becoming a Heavenly Divine Soul Owner, he had a Death Heavenly Fragment and Major Divine Soul. As one can imagine, Vasto is proficient with Dark Laws.
"Begin!"
Vasto didn't dare to be negligent and immediately released his Domain.
"Dark Web Domain!"
Immediately, the world around him turned dark, death energy could clearly be felt, and the Dark laws spread everywhere. Not only that, but one could also see very thin strings of Dark Colored Energy that spread inside his Domain like a real web.
Suddenly, thousands of small spiders looking exactly like Vasto began to crawl on the webs inside his Domain.
Krune looked at that and released his Domain as Well.
"A fire domain it is."
Krune released the very first Domain he had ever created, the Fire Domain. It's just that he had never given it a name up to this day.
The world around him went totally red. Different from the past, Krune's Fire Laws were in another league altogether. With four fire sub-laws at culmination, it simply couldn't be compared anymore.
Krune hasn't used his Tribulation Lightning Domain until now, let alone the Rainbow Domain. That being said, he decided to keep them hidden for fiercer battles in the future. Besides, his Fire Domain has the support of his Myriad Energies Technique, Soul Power higher than anyone else in this competition, and his master's Element Regulation Technique. In strength alone, he would only lose to someone who already merged all the fire sub-laws into the Major Law of Fire.
Both Domains clashed as Krune and Vasto began to launch their own attacks. As it turned out, the two were long-ranged attackers. Vasto's Domain acted more like protection, which helped to keep others outside. Of course, it also supported Vasto's attacks.
Dark and Fire laws and elements clashed against each other without stop. Blades, Rays, Explosions, Decay, Shattered Space, you name it. In the end, Krune and Vasto entered in a battle of attrition. Of course, Krune hasn't released a single Purple Tribulation Lightning attack so far. He only controlled his Shields, which were majorly covered with Light Laws/Elements, to defend against Vasto while using Fire Laws/Elements to counter-attack.
It turned out that Krune and Vasto's battle became the most prolonged, extending for over 20 minutes. Both Vasto and Krune reached the conclusion that they were very confident in their Spiritual Energy reserve, so they hoped that the other would run out of it first. Of course, for those who knew about the Elemental and Chaos Meridians, the result was evident the moment this attrition battle started.
Finally, after the battle underwent for 33 minutes, Vasto's Domain collapsed. He simply didn't have more energy to keep it running. He looked at Krune's Fire Domain, which was still shinning like a bright sun.
"I give up."
He knew that he had made the wrong call. He didn't expect that a Wisp, especially one with lower cultivation, would have so much energy available.
Krune's Fire Domain and attacks all dispersed when he heard that. As one can imagine, he was still far from being exhausted. First of all, his Universe Foundation is incomparable in size to anyone else, so his pool of energy is indeed much bigger than Vasto's. After all, Krune began its expansion when he was still in the Soul Forging Realm. The second part is that his Elemental and Chaos Meridians are both at their max capability of conversion, so Krune can get more energy than anyone else.
If fact, thanks to the Tribulation Meridians, Krune went a step further, which increased the amount of Spiritual Energy that it could absorb for conversion at once. In a certain way, one could say that Krune's absorption speed is basically on par with Cinty. As everyone knows, Cinty has a Blackhole Major Divine Soul, Krune doesn't. For him to be on par with Cinty in absorption, he can only thank the extra Tribulation Lightning Meridians.
With that, Krune's first battle was over with his victory.
In the Fifteenth group, Hanan also passed through his opponent without many problems, mostly since his first battle was against someone with lower cultivation. Sure enough, Krune and Laka weren't the only ones under the 9th Stage of the Divine Path Realm.
In the end, Fabio Koltem was the only one that defeated a seeded participant in the first round. Of course, the winners from battles without seeded fighters might have someone hiding their strength. So the spectators couldn't throw away the idea of other seeded participants losing in the next few rounds.
On the second round, Iem Turo was once again the first on the stage. His opponent was a demon beast this time. However, everyone could see that the demon beast didn't seem that confident. The news about Iem Turo being a Heavenly Race member quickly spread between the competitors, so many thought that the first group's winner has already been decided.
In fact, even the seeded participant of the second group, Tirande, was feeling gloomy. After all, there are 16 seeded participants in 16 groups, but only the top 8 would advance into the next phase. That means Tirande will have to defeat Iem Turo as his last obstacle. Difficult, too difficult! That's what Tirande felt.
Most of the demon beasts are close-quarter fighters. Iem's opponent this time was no different, so he pounced at Iem just like Horune did. He used all his laws and Domain from the very start. Iem, of course, took this head-on! The result was not surprising to anyone. Iem won once more.
But the thing that people didn't like was the fact that he only showed his physical prowess so far. As a Heavenly Race member, he definitely was much more than a melee fighter. Unfortunately for the others, no one was able to force him into doing something different.
The rounds continued. Iem, Laka, Hanan, Krune, Fabio, and the others kept winning their battles one after another. In one Iem's matches, he fought against a long-ranged cultivator. Thanks to that, others could finally see Iem's skills.
Well, the result was the same, nonetheless. It's just that the battle persisted for a few minutes since Iem's opponent was adept at running. But there was one thing that no one has seen yet, Iem's Domain! He was basically the only participant that hasn't used a Domain Yet. All the participants, especially Tirande, which that they could have seen it beforehand. As the winner of the Second Group, Tirande is the guy who will fight Iem Turo to see which one of them would enter the top 8.
Well, in a certain way, Krune hasn't shown his real Domain either. For each of the five battles, Krune used one of his Elemental Domains. Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Lightning. He didn't use a Space, Time, Dark, or Light Domains, though. Between those four, the only one that Krune could possibly create a Domain was Space, but he wasn't used to it. He hasn't even tried before either.
The spectators outside were still amazed, though. After all, Krune had five different types of Domain. Others could also create other Domains if they wanted, but they wouldn't use the extra ones as proficient as Krune. But the majority already knew about the Myriad Wisps Technique. Not to mention that Krune is an Elemental Major Divine Soul Owner. His Major Divine Soul is perfect to get used to all the Elements, so they could at least accept his proficiency somehow.
Each group had 32 participants. That being said, the winners of the 16 groups had been decided. The next battles would be between the strongest 16 to determine the top 8.
Iem Turo vs. Tirande;
Waka Ulin vs. Tiango;
Sara Qanze vs. Karen Zetial;
Romerio Botfue vs. Sule;
Jovlare vs. Vork Hergando;
Laka vs. Fabio Koltem;
Krune vs. Unan Cesenlal;
Hanan Frunkan vs. Mala.
