Chapter 317: The Divine Sinner’s Blood (2/2)

A group of people claimed this was the beginning of mana. Whereas, many also claimed that it was false. After all, each race had its own history for the root of mana.

Those living beings who were hit by a drop of it gained an unimaginable power be it animals, plants, insects, or humans. But it also caused a hideous side effect to some of them who failed to control the power.

Thus, turning them into hideous-looking monsters. This is said to be the origin of magical monsters and the start of mutation to all the living.

Nonetheless, such cases and gossip were of no value to Kiko.

He stared at the item for a couple of seconds. He could tell that the liquid inside it wasn't the real thing. Kiko didn't mean that it was a fake, however. It wasn't the pure Divine Sinner's Blood.

To prove his assumption, the person in a black robe spoke once again. ”Yeah. It is as you see. The Divine Sinner's Blood. Don't worry, it's purified to at most 75 percent. So it is safer to consume. With this, I can't fully imagine just how far your power will leap. Hehe. You might either advance your level faster than your peers.”

Kiko produced a pouch of gold. The main currency used in the Outerworld was Virtual Gold Points. But in some parts of the Innerworld, they were still using gold coins.

Kiko threw the pouch of gold points towards her, in exchange she did the same to the item. the Divine Sinner's blood. She threw it towards Kiko.

The person in a black robe disappeared into the shadows after receiving the payment. Kiko also left the place and went back to the Waiting Hall with a huge grin on his face.

When he arrived, there were only three remaining participants that had yet to battle. However, the match that was currently on the stage had just ended.

Two of the remaining three went up on stage to fight.

The fight ended after one of them was cornered in a cage-like wall that was made of hardened wood.

The winner was a student from section A, whereas his enemy was from the lower section. The difference in mana capacity and fighting capability was too broad. So it was understandable that he won.

Now, it's time for the last participant to choose his desired opponent.

”Calling the last participant to come up on stage!” A loud call using a mic resounded.

The last participant was called on stage to be given the privilege to choose his opponent, not to the defeated participants, but to those who'd won their match, except for those who were injured to fight.

However, many of the remaining participants had their feelings sink after knowing the last participant's identity. Especially those in lower sections.
