Chapter 168 - End Of The First Four Rounds, Next Lot Was Empty? (1/2)
The believers had officially defeated the four-star divine puppet and they were finally done with the ninth divine pillar!
The moment they finished the fight, Sullo's believers were immediately sent out.
Seeing Sullo's own abilities, as well as his believers' strengths, caused the rest of the Gods to be extremely shocked!
Even the sovereign experts who were looking on were shocked as well by the state of events!
It was also during this time that a large portion of the geniuses on the throne list were already eliminated!
After all, the guardians of the seventh and eighth divine pillar had already possessed the power of a peak demigod.
It was definitely not something that ordinary demigod believers could compare to!
It could be seen that many believers were suffering from heavy injuries and had even died during the battle in the eighth divine pillar!
As they looked toward the ninth divine pillar, the genius gods began to break out in a cold sweat.
It was one thing if they could pass the test, but they weren't sure if they would be able to suffer the potential losses such as losing their believers for this competition!
In the end, these believers managed to advance, but a huge price had been paid.
They had even sacrificed a lot of their believers!
It was truly a double loss!
However, Sullo's own reputation has truly been turned around after the events of this competition.
After all, his believers were simply too powerful despite Sullo himself only being a five-star God!
His believers had actually joined forces and annihilated a four-star divine puppet!
This was almost inconceivable for a space-splitting god!
This was an existence that could shock even a sovereign expert!
After the believer trials ended, the sovereign experts who were maintaining order transported the qualifying Gods to a completely new area!
The sovereign expert casually waved his hand as a terrifying divine power instantly exploded forth!
The entire spacetime was continuously fluctuating as a Spatial Gate was instantly opened!
This was the power of a sovereign expert that far surpassed that of ordinary Gods!
Seeing this display of abilities caused Sullo and the rest of the Gods to become excited.
After all, although they possessed the innate talent of a sovereign expert, they were still far from being at that stage.
In the future, they would most likely become sovereign experts at some point in their life as well.
After the sovereign expert opened the Spatial Gate, he sent all of them to a different starfield and began to explain the rules to them once they arrived.
”Since your believers decided the first half for you, you'll now have to be the ones fighting for your position in the second half!
”The rules of the second round are actually quite simple. It's a battle between gods! You need to draw lots to determine the opponent. This will be a single elimination battle where only the winners will advance! Of course, because there are nine of you, there should be one empty round. Now let's go!”
After the sovereign expert announced the competition rules, all the gods began to draw lots!
When it got to Sullo's turn, he realized that he had actually managed to draw the empty lot. He could skip one battle!
Seeing that Sullo had gotten a battle exemption, the other Gods were unhappy at his outstanding luck and skills.
”Aiya, your luck is really good! You actually drew the empty lot! It seems that you'll be able to escape a part of this havoc!”
”Damn, how did he manage to obtain the empty lot to skip a battle? He's only a five star god. Even if he has powerful believers, so what? The difference between a middle god and a High God is not something he can bridge through that alone!”
”I'm so angry. It was this weakest one amongst us who was actually able to pull out the empty lot. Dammit, his luck is really good. I guess he'll live a bit longer. Once I kill him, all his believers will be mine!”
After a moment of dissatisfaction, the genius gods decided to start their battle. After all, they still had to continue fighting despite their dissatisfaction!
Furthermore, the person in charge was a sovereign expert, an entity that they did not dare to offend!
