Chapter 470 Strict Traditions

The peculiarity of Arena's moons was that while they once were uninhabitable rocks that orbited Arena, thanks to many centuries of work, they had been terraformed into inhabitable miniature planets

The fifth moon was known as such because it was the fifth in size, and on it, were built a dozen cities inhabited by the main branch, side branches, and servant families of the warrior who had defeated the patriarch of the for family

But now, the fifth moon was completely empty

A battle for the control of a moon was not a rare event, but there were lied once every ten years, aa war of attrition against a single defending warrior This lie whenever one was issued, causing the entire fa owner to abandon the moon, so that they could witness the battle that would either grant the as one of the ten major families of the faction, or force the with the rest of their family

Now, ten years had passed, and after a harsh selection conducted through constant conflict, a warrior had risen fro planets to fight for the fifthhonor to hi faht that would take place in the Amphitheatrum, a structure built on Arena specially built for this kind of bouts A building which the War God would need to personally enhance with his own ki to keep it fro parties This was one of the roles of the War God, and worked as a constant rereatest power in the whole domain

Warriors such as the two contestants, ell over what corresponded to the hundred and fiftieth phase of high i the whole planet with a single punch It was only thanks to the peculiar formation placed on the amphitheater, that the impact of their bloas unable to reach the spectators, or affect anything that went beyond the fighting stage

This was possible thanks to a for that ki cultivators were usually unable to do, and that, was to take control over the space of the stage, and turn it into a pocket diinal universe, and only penetrable by light, and sound essence

After more than an hour since the arrival of the last of the spectators and family patriarchs, the spectators started to become restless But then, the ninean unnatural silence to the entire Amphitheatrum A few seconds later, the War God walked out of the dark corridor present behind his elevated seat, and sat down onto it Then, without even acknowledging the spectators or the nine warriors that sat just half a meter below hiin”

No one took offence to this behaviour, after all, the figure of the War God was never one that others saw as soest individual at the tiht to be cocky If sost the ten families, his role would be quickly usurped, but until then, his strength was all that was needed for him to be respected

This kind of harsh reality was the reason why no one under the War God would expect any form of appreciation from their leader, nor would they care for it There was no need to pledge loyalty to soht have to cole as spoken, massive amounts of ki were injected into the stone seat of the War God, which quickly spread through the entire stage, reinforcing it with the power of the strongest e was full of the War God's power, the challenger, aclothes that appeared to be in his late thirties, and the defender, a slightly chubby old man dressed in a spotlessly clean set of clothes, disappeared fro, and turned into two flashes of red light

The demeanor of the two ki warriors was drastically different The challenger was extreressiveness that had allowed hiest individual underneath the War God, and the moon holders, while the chubby old man was more composed and relaxed
