The Tale of the Void Emperor

When it was time, Athan and others went to the venue as everyone entered the stadium.

Mike and Qerin were called to the guest mansion, so they went there while Athan, Tiana, Avelia, Shiromi, Sen, Linci, Tealry, Arcued, and Theo went to the stadium.

Athan and Linci got the notification that they won't be allowed to participating in the tournament, but in compensation for that, they will get one entry into Sky Force Pagoda.

In Sky Force Pagoda, one can get rewards based on how many floors they pass. This Sky Force Pagoda was especially for those who are at the peak of Orderic Catastrophe. The final goal of all those people in Orderic Catastrophe is to gather Monolith Credits to buy one entry into Sky Force Pagoda before they break through to the Zen order stage.

But Athan and Linci got this entry free, and this compensation is considered a lot compared to tournament rewards. This shows their favoritism towards Athan and Linci, but that is expected because they are both talented with very high potential. Both broke All-time high records of all newbie events, and their combat power is also comparable to zen order elites despite being in Orderic Catastrophe.

....

The two hill masters and two elders from Great Bridgade Palace were sitting on the top of the stadium on four special seats.

Since it was time, Hill Master Sabod stood up and said with his thundering voice, " The tournament is a 1v1 battle. Many of you should already know that It is between the top 10 ranks of our Newbie leaderboard versus the top 10 Newrecruits from Great Bridgade Palace. "

The goal of this tournament is simple. Hahaha, through this tournament, we can check which organization managed to get more talented individuals before their full potential is unearthed. There are also rewards for the top 5 winners: The champion gets ten Curiazat fruits and five Torquis Bound Pills. The second and third rank gets seven Curiazat fruits and three Torquis Bound Pills, while the fourth and fifth rank gets five Curiazat fruits and two Torquis Bound Pills. "

After that, Top 10 from both sides walked into the ground from opposites pathways leading into the stadium.

The twenty people introduced themselves before Hill Master Sabod commenced the tournament by calling out rank ten persons from both sides.

" Wait for a second, Elders! There seems to be some mistake! "

At this time, The rank one from Great Monolith Hills spoke loudly and attracted everyone's attention.

Rank 1, Garujaa. He was humanoid but had two crystalized horns on his forehead that shone with a crimson luster, and his body also had faint crystalized scales and a crystalized tail.

After attracting everyone's attention, He continued speaking as his voice reverberated across the stadium, " Dear Elders, I have gone to check the top 10 newbie leaderboard, but I don't see rank one and rank two from the ten people standing in front of me. What is the meaning of this? "

Hill Master Sabod was a bit startled before he spoke with his loud, wild voice, " Oh, that? Hahaha. Since those two are a bit special, they won't be participating in this or the next team fight competition. Because If they participated, then there wouldn't be suspense in the championship and second rank. "

Hearing the words of Hill Master Sabod, Elder Hoblet coughed as a thunderous voice resounded. With a smile, he said, " Actually, we also have some very talented individuals, they mostly remain low-key, but if they get serious, those two will definitely take the champion and 2nd rank spot; there's no suspense in it.

The rank 8 and rank 9 from Great Bridgade Palace looked at each other and smiled wryly. They were Qerin and Mike. They stay low-key most of the time and just focuses on training. But those two elders who came with them knew their true power.

The Great Bridgade Palace didn't have things like a newbie leaderboard, but they had many trials, and one can get rewards based on their performance. Basically, those trials have several levels, and they can clear the trials every month on different levels to get rewards. The higher the difficulty level, the better the rewards. The most important rewards they get from those trials are Bridgade credits which allow them to buy anything.

Elder Seria nodded in agreement with Elder Hoblet and said with a smile, " That's right, Sabod. Everyone doesn't feel good about this arrangement. It's as if you are looking down on our geniuses. "

" That's right! Bring out those two. "

" Yep. This is totally looking down on us. Humph. "

At this time, The ten people from Great Bridgade Palace started speaking as they demanded rank 1 and rank 2 on the Newbie leaderboard to participate in this competition.

Seeing this scene unfurling, Athan, Linci, and others were speechless.

" What now, Athan? " Linci asked with a wry smile.

Athan shrugged and said, " I don't care what they arrange. If th-"

Suddenly, He paused as he received a voice transmission from Hill Master Nesia.

" Athan. You and Linci have already been granted a better reward, so you can't participate in this competition. But the current situation is also a bit tricky, and there is only one way to prove that our decision was correct. "

" What way? " Athan asked, but he had already guessed it.

" Come to the stadium and defeat all ten of them with your strange soul move that makes them unconsiousness. Linci's power is unstable, so if she goes and someone dies, it would be terrible. So, you should display your power and prove that our decision was correct. "

Athan grinned after hearing that and said, " Sure, but I have a condition. If you can accept this condition, then I will go and shut them up. "

There was a silence for a brief moment before he heard Hill Master Nesia's voice again, " What condition? "

" The condition is very simple. Lower that one requirement to register a faction for me. That one which requires the leader to have 200,000 BDP, please lower it to 100,000 BDP. "

" Only leader BDP requirement? What about members? "

" No need to change the requirement for members. They will likely reach 100,000 BDP before me. "

" Alright. Since you are the leader, and the BDP card does not gauge your real battle power, there is a possibility to change the requirement. Condition accepted. "

Athan stood up and said with a grin, " It looks like I will have to go there and calm them down. "

" Did they call you, Athan? " Linci asked.

" Yep. And I got a benefit in exchange for this work. We will have our own faction earlier than expected. Hahaha. " Athan laughed as he flew up and moved into the stadium.
