Chapter 1986 Earth Strongest

Emery made his way to the Moon base hangar and carefully selected one of the five available ships. To avoid unnecessary entanglements with the magus alliance, he opted for the smallest vessel, the [Dragonfly]. This two-person scout ship was designed to cater to the magus' need for swift reconnaissance around Earth.

Leaving the rest of his team behind at the Moon base, Emery took off for Earth along with Morgana. The ship gracefully descended, its nimble design ensuring a smooth journey.

As the ship descended, Emery observed the alterations made by the grand magus Fuxi's formation array—manifested in the form of thick clouds covering most of Earth's seven continents.

Over the past four years, the Eastern sage had successfully implemented this vast array. Without a secret seal, anyone approaching these clouds would be enveloped in a mist that interfered with their spirit reading. Even if they managed to forcefully breach the clouds, a potent energy restriction within the formation's area would limit their abilities, rendering them unable to unleash their full strength.

The ship approached the atmospheric barrier with a warning, signaling a potential obstruction ahead. Almost immediately, a new message appeared.

[Dragonfly 02, you are cleared to enter]

Having been granted access by Moon Base, the ship descended through the barrier into Earth's sky. At the same time, the seals on both Emery and Morgana's arms emitted a radiant glow, shielding them from the restrictive effects of the formation.

Their destination came into view—the Bodhi temple, where the much-anticipated tournament was set to take place. Employing the ship's cloaking technology, Emery carefully descended, choosing a location miles away from the temple to avoid any interference. All these meticulous measures were in accordance with the guidelines laid out by the magus Alliance.

"Good, i am proud of you" Klea said, satisfied with the report.

"Let's go, you came at the right time," Klea announced, steering the two towards a secluded area on the elevated grounds of the Bodhi temple. The vantage point offered an unobtrusive view of the entire tournament, allowing them to observe without drawing much attention. As they reached the special private area, Emery spotted Ashaka, Chumo, and the esteemed Eastern Sage Fuxi already present, attentively watching the unfolding matches.

"Glad you two can join us," greeted the Eastern Sage, Fuxi, as Emery acknowledged the senior with a gesture of respect before settling into a seat among the group.

The anticipation in the secluded area was palpable as the six strongest individuals on Earth gathered, their camaraderie evident from an unspoken bond formed over the years. Emery, having been occupied for the past two months, was now eager to catch up on the tournament matter.

"So, are we still looking for our tenth participant?" Emery inquired, referring to the ten participants needed for the upcoming duel against Kronos. With the six present, plus Julian, Thrax, and Fjolnier who were still away, they already had nine confirmed participants. The confusion stemmed from the assumption that the young monk, Damo, might be the strongest candidate for the tenth spot.

Klea chuckled in response, "No, no... it's not fair if Damo participates in this. We don't want to disrupt his studies at the Magus Academy."

"Ah, just a friendly tournament then?" Emery queried.

With a cunning smile, Klea replied, "I promise you, it will be more interesting than that."

As the sun rose high in the air, casting a golden light on the Bodhi temple, thousands of spectators and hundreds warriors filled the temple yard. The Earth's strongest had gathered to showcase their prowess, and the atmosphere buzzed with excitement and anticipation.
