Eventually, all 100 participants died once at the trio's hands and some twice, which nailed their coffins.
After a while of no one coming, Rin and Erix got a message instead and saw two familiar people approaching them with the clear intention of talking.
Those two were none other than Meimei and Lania, the two beauties from Celestial Bell cosmic faction.
"Hey, why don't you let people pass?" Meimei asked with a weak smile. "Stop bullying other people."
"Over thirty people left, but the rest have banded together," Lania wryly smiled. "With those many, you two will die and revive at the half point...so, how about letting everyone pass? You've reduced competition enough already."
"Haha," Erix laughed and crossed his arms. "We've yet to die once, and I don't think we will die even once."
"So, don't worry about us," Rin smiled. "You all can either come and die or surrender."
"That's not going to bode well," Meimei sighed. "All the remaining players have background, and if you remain stubborn, there's a high chance they will attack you outside."
"The blessed island you will win can easily get destroyed," Lania said in a plain tone and raised eyebrows. "Are you sure you don't want to back down?"
"Knock yourself out," Erix grinned. "Every single one of you will die in a single attack of ours."
*Hoooonnnn*
A loud sound echoed before Meimei and Lania saw a giant one-hundred-meter-long whale manifest behind the duo with Aria sitting on it.
"No one will pass today," Aria grinned.
Hundreds of exotic Animated Spirits, all cute and cool looking, but deadly appeared around Aria.
Meimei and Lania looked at each other, helplessness evident in their eyes.
'Damn it. These three together are a hopeless situation for us.'
'Let's return and tell the decision. We can surrender after that,' Lania said. 'Let others court death if they want to.'
'Sigh, if only we could use one-time use items and potions here.'
'Nah, these two, no...these three freaks can still kill us. It's the difference in spirit stat, and those crazy skills of their Super Exotic Elements.'
'And I feel like they still haven't gone all out. Didn't you see they had some sort of battle form when we watched them in some Mirage crystals? They haven't used it yet.'
'Tsk.'
...
Outside, Lilith, Lily, and Maleina went to the Unbound Star cosmic faction and had long started preparing to create catalysts to awaken Erix's bloodline.
"No Royal-order is currently powerful enough to match them, especially after these," Tenebria smiled and waved her hand as four pills appeared before Lilith.
"These pills..." Lilith was astonished, especially at the description of the pills.
"This effect," Maleina was speechless. "Although this pill seems useless for Rin and Erix since they can farm crazily and get stat points,...."
"Yeah," Lily burst out laughing, "If we eat these, it's over for everyone."
The pills were highly valuable and hard to acquire, but obviously not for Tenebria.
And...they had a straightforward effect.
Eating that single pill would fundamentally boost their progress to the peak of Royal-order.
In other words, their fundamental stats would reach the ceiling of Royal-order, reaching 5000 points in each.
Including Magic-stats.
"They are here."
A group of twenty powerhouses exited, one of them was Addler too, his face utterly ashen.
The event portal glowed colorfully before a blast of firecrackers and designs spread in the sky.
[The event has concluded! The winner is Erix, Doom Fist of the Abyss!]
A huge five kilometers diameter circular island appeared in the sky, with a kilometer of thickness from top to bottom.
It was completely white, made of some mysterious material carved with eccentric and strange arrays of patterns and symbols.
Lilith didn't waste a breath and quickly flew towards the island.
"Let's go. We have to be quick!"
Rin, Erix, and Aria met up with Lilith and others soon and immediately flew away as Erix controlled the island with his thoughts.
'Crazy!' Erix was currently hyper-excited as he read the description of this Blessed Island.
"Erix! Snap out, honey. Absorb these three catalyst," Lilith flicked Erix's forehead as his eyes regained focus on the outside away from the description panel.
"You won't believe what this crazy island can do! It has so much potential, hahaha."
"Alright, but absorb these quickly and assign the island's control to me."
Lilith sharply smiled, "It's time for you to awaken the most awesome bloodline this Abyss has ever seen."
