210 Second Stage of the Great Tournamen

While Liu Yang and his group made another trip through the Golden Desert.

Let's go back a year and a half in time ...

The first stage of the Great Alliance Tournament was over, those who passed had received a token with the name and identification number, only the owner could use. If someone loses this token, it was necessary to pay a small amount of money to get another.

The second stage would begin a month later, this was to give time for those who passed have a short rest before the next step.

The location of the second stage was within another secret realm, however, the entrance was in the same place as before. When the first stage ended, those who passed and those who were still alive, all were transported out. They went back to the entrance from which they came.

The only difference was that those who passed will automatically receive the token ID for the next step.

A month had passed quickly ...

The locations of the secret realm entrances were crowded again, despite the large loss in the number of participants, there were still tens of millions of participants if all four tournaments were added.

When the clock came to 00:00, those who had the token were allowed to enter the secret realm. There were some who stole the tokens of the others, but it was useless, the moment someone tried to use a stolen token, the portal would expel that person immediately.

It took several hours for all participants to enter the secret realms.

The goal this time was not just to reach the central zone again, but also to steal a thousand tokens of opponents to go on to the next phase. A thousand tokens were the minimum to go to the third phase, the higher the amount of stolen token, the higher the rank. The higher the ranking, the fewer fights you will have to fight in the third stage. The time limit this time would also be different, the maximum limit to stay within the secret realm was one year.

This was the goal of the alliance, to eliminate as many participants as possible. That would leave only the strongest and most talented for the next phase. But there was also another variable, the level of danger this time increased several times compared to the previous step.

The secret realm this time was a gigantic forest the size of a great country. The locations of the secret realm were different from the previous one, this time there were forests mixed with volcanoes, ice mountains, extremely large lakes with clouds of thunder within, and strange yet extremely powerful creatures.

In this secret realm, everything that existed in the place was the combination of two or more elements, that is, the trees, stones, rivers, plants, the ground, creatures and among other things. Everything had at least more than one element, this would increase the difficulty of the participants several times.

It took a few hours before the portals stopped opening.

This time there was no waiting time to begin, those who came first would have an advantage over others. This was to show that sometimes life was unfair. To give more excitement to the tournament, the fighting between the participants was only allowed after twenty-four hours. This rule was made to avoid confrontation in the initial area.

Somewhere several miles from the initial zone, it was possible to see a person wearing a black cloak that completely covered the body, there was an object larger than the person's body and was hanging on the back. This person did not feel like running, she just walked away with ordered steps.

Along the way, it was possible to see corpses of other competitors who were killed by the beings inhabiting this secret realm, most of them killed by the natural traps that existed or by living plants.

The black person only checked if there was anything of value in the bodies after destroying what killed the other participant, when she did not find anything, the person in black just continued the walk.

In the first twenty-four hours, it was difficult to see anyone in the part of the initial zone, ninety-nine percent had already run towards the middle zone, the remains were exploring the place and did not want to be the first to be killed after twenty-four hours.

After several hours of walking, the sky was getting dark, there was no light like the day. Only total darkness, those who could see in the dark had advantages over others in this kind of situation.

The person in black was trying to find some great tree to set up a camp. Since the skills that made it possible for one to see in the dark were basic to all who fought, it was easy to find and prices depended on the degree of ability. Anyone with money could buy it.

The person in black was no exception, she also had that ability. After several hours of searching, the black person finally managed to find a huge tree with several thick branches and large leaves around the trunk, it took ten people hand in hand to get around the tree.

Jumping from branch to branch, the person finally managed to climb to a reasonable height, after creating a large hole in the trunk and entering. The person in black covered the entrance with the bark of the tree and a few leaves, before taking out a stone of light to illuminate the place.

Finishing things, that person finally sighed and began to remove the cloak, the image that appeared was a young girl of 24-25 years, her appearance was beautiful with reddish skin and scales on the neck, there was a small horn on the forehead, the figure was curvilinear with the right proportions in the three measurements. This person was Zi Jiao, she managed to move to the second round after much suffering and heavy fighting.

In her arms were two tattoos, a snake in each arm, the two tattoos shine and a ball of light leaves the arms, the light began to grow bigger and giving the shape of two two-meters snakes in length and the thickness was like the arm of an adult man. These two snakes were the cub of the World-Destroying Snake.

During the first stage, after Zi Jiao got the two small snakes, she began to kill the creatures that inhabit the secret realm madly. As the levels of the snakes were only 1, and the level of the creatures was between 200-500, the small snakes leveled very fast.

In just one day, the small snakes leveled from 1 to 150, of the two snakes even suffered the first tribulation, after passing successfully, its bodies increased a little. The size of a palm was up to the size of an adult arm.

After several days of bloody slaughter, the snakes leveled to level 300 while Zi Jiao was at level 420. She endured the damage of tribulation with her own body and the weapon, the two snakes had gone through the third tribulation.

Getting to level 500 was fairly straightforward, you just had to have time to kill creatures long enough that someone would reach that level. But everything would change in the transition at level 500, the fifth tribulation was considered the most difficult of all because it was the starting point for the true difference between a common elite and a specialist.

If someone at level 499 and Rank 4 fights someone at level 500 and Rank 5, the winner will be the person with level 500, no matter what items the level 499 person would be using, that person will lose.

Even though it was only the difference of a single level and single rank, but it was an abyss that separated billions of people. Because the skills someone gained by reaching level 500 and rank 5, could completely suppress anyone below it.
