Adam, Angela and Wayde used their Disguise Illusion Stones as they headed over to the arena with Cole and William. Although Advanced Cultivators could see how they really looked, if they were an Advanced Cultivator they would be able to sense the powerful aura around them anyway.

Most of the cultivators heading towards the arena were also using the Disguise Illusion Stone just so that they didn't cause a commotion in the public, which was something that most cultivators agreed was taboo.

"Cole, calm down, take deep breaths, be confident and remember you aren't only doing this for your parents and because it is your destiny. That is bullshit. Do it because you want to and because you want to be able to live a happy life where you don't have to worry about anything and can get rid of anything that is threatening your happiness and the happiness of those that you cared about" advised Adam as he placed his hand on Cole's shoulder and gave him a reassuring smile.

"Thanks, Adam, and you are right. I am doing this for myself and because I myself want to get revenge for my mother, grandfather and father, not because it is my destiny" stated Cole, who needed Adam's advice to help him take ownership of his aims.

The arena was filled with hundreds of Advanced Cultivators and individuals in high positions within the Epstein Family, all excited to see who would win the battle and become the next family head.

In the crowds were Damian and Martha who had front row seats and were VIP guests that were authorised by Mason, and the great elder was also excited to finally be able to get rid of the loose strings.

Once Mason became the family head, everything that he had worked towards for the past decades would have been worth it, but it wasn't over until it was over, so he didn't relax until both William and Cole were exterminated.

Cole arrived with Adam, Wayde, William and Angela behind him and upon entering the arena, they deactivated their Disguise Illusion Stones and revealed themselves, but only Cole and William were actually showing their face, as they had already shown themselves to the family.

As soon as they took down their disguises, Damian and Martha instantly recognised the figure in all-black that had a demonic mask. Seeing him, the beautiful masked female beside him was clearly Angela and the tall and strong male figure that was wearing a mask was clearly Wayde.

"Mason, the 3 with Cole are Angela, Wayde and that other male that I told you about," said Damian.

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter who they bring, they will still lose and we will both get what we want in the process" laughed Mason who with the support of his father and some of the elders felt invincible.

Jumping from the stands with incredible speed and power, Mason landed in the centre of the arena that had been emptied and flattened out in preparation for the battle.

"Welcome Cole, this will be the grounds for our battle to the death and it will be a three against three match that was no restrictions" announced Mason who had taken control of the crowd and shown his power and authority within a few seconds.

"Yes, and it will be where you and your father are executed publically for your sins" declared Cole confidently, feeling adrenaline coursing through his veins.

"So, who are the two that you have decided to join your team," asked the great elder who jumped down to join his son and interrupted Mason before reacting to Cole's declaration.

"I have a final condition for the battle before I answer that" stated Cole.

"The match has already been agreed on, what other conditions do you have?" asked the great elder who was feeling sceptical and wasn't sure about what Cole was going to request that might ruin everything that he worked towards.

"My condition is that this battle should be between youths and not old men like you. The age limit should be 18 years of age" stated Cole, without any respect towards the great elder.

"That is outrageous, the conditions and rules were already set before the match and you cannot change the rules as you please" bellowed the great elder furiously.

"Is your son that much of a coward that he cannot accept a fair battle, I am merely setting conditions that make the battle for family head fair. It should be a youth battle as we are the future of the cultivation world and I am sure that the audience thinks my conditions are reasonable" said Cole.

The crowd began to cheer wanting to be entertained by the battle and most of the crowd were in support of Cole and agreed that it should be a battle between youths, which would be much more entertaining.

"Mason, do you want us to be part of your team?" offered Damian, who was confident in his own strength.

Seeing Damian and Martha in the crowd and knowing of their incredible power that was one of the highest out of the youths in New York, he was still confident that he could win, especially since he was confident in his own power.

The great elder felt pressured to accept and he didn't really want to accept as he didn't want any risks on the final part of his son's inheritance of the family head, however looking down at his son, he still seemed confident.

"Father, it's fine, either way, I will win and become the next family head, no matter what conditions he requests to add" stated Mason.

"If that is the case then who are the two others that will be joining your team?" asked the great elder.

"My companions will be the two people stood beside me" answered Cole as Angela and Adam stepped forth to stand beside him.

Cole was confident and ready to battle with his two mysterious masked companions, which made the great elder anxious, while the rest of the crowd were enjoying the show and excited to see who would come out on top.
