Cornelia was still on the second floor together with the other participants. She could already feel the tense atmosphere enveloping the whole room. Some people were observing the others since they might be opponents in the matchups.

Looking at this scene, Cornelia scoffed in her heart. Only those who are unsure of their own strength would act like this.

Cornelia scanned the entire second floor as if she was searching for someone. Not long later, she saw a familiar face among the crowd. It was General Nangong, a veteran in their Great Demon Empire's army. From what she remembered, this old veteran was already a peak stage Demon Lord for more than several decades. It seemed like he still failed to breakthrough after so many years.

As if sensing Cornelia's gaze, the old demon dressed in heavy metal armor nodded at her with respect.

Cornelia returned the greeting with a sweet smile on her face.

Tap. Tap.

Suddenly, everyone heard a series of footsteps at the entrance of the second floor. They saw Blue who was holding a piece of document walking at the center of the room with elegant footsteps. After scanning the crowd with a professional smile, she then said. "Everyone, all the slot for the Heaven Battle has been filled. The battles will start tomorrow and all the matchups have already been decided randomly, but before that, let me announce the rewards for the top three participants."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard her words. They adjusted their posture and listened attentively.

"The third place will receive 10 God Stones, the second place will receive 20 God Stones, first place will receive 20 God Stones and one Dao Enlightenment Pill." Blue announced as she read the document in her hands.

"God Stones? What's that?"

"I don't know, but it sounds impressive..."

Cornelia furrowed her eyebrows. Even a well-learned individual like her didn't know what a God Stone is. As for the Dao Enlightenment Pill, she also didn't have any idea about it.

"Young Miss Blue, do you really have God Stones?" A handsome-looking elf who had a long green sword behind his back stood up with a look of surprise. This elf was Leaf. An elf who was driven out of his own home after he had provoked a High Elf.

Blue stared at the elf with a smile as she nodded her head confidently. "Of course. The God Stones will be provided by Wine Master Jiu Shen himself."

Leaf was stunned, but when he realized that everyone was looking at him, he immediately returned to his seat.

"Young Miss Blue, can you tell us what this God Stone is? Also, the Dao Enlightenment Pill that will be rewarded for the first place." General Nangong stood up and asked.

Blue smiled at the old demon and answered him. "A God Stone isn't a man-made resource, but something that is made by nature after many years of nurturing. It is similar to the True Crystals of the Profound Dragon Continent, but a God Stone is even more precious than that. After all, it can help those at the Demon Lord level increase their cultivation progress. As for the Dao Enlightenment Pill, it is a medicine that can help those at the peak stage of the Demon Lord level have a higher chance of breaking through the Demon Ancestor level..."

"What?! There are actually such treasures?!"

Among the participants, there were a few individuals who had been stuck at the peak stage of the Demon Lord level. Their eyes flashed with excitement when they heard about this. A pill that could help them reach the next realm!

General Nangong clenched his fists tightly. He must get his hands on this pill!

Cornelia who had just ascended to the Demon Lord level shook her head in regret. She might be strong, but even someone as strong as her couldn't defeat the likes of General Nangong who had lived on the battlefield for centuries.

Even though she was truly wanted to get the Dao Enlightenment Pill, she didn't have the ability to win it, so she could only try to get second or third place.

"Are there more questions?" Blue scanned the crowd.

After seeing that no one had any questions, she continued. "In that case, I will announce the matchups for tomorrow. To those who are not here, they will receive a letter from our messengers. Alright, the matchups will be:

Wally Kalbo vs Jiao Badong

Cornelia vs Frazer

...

"Those are the matchups for tomorrow. Any questions?" Blue asked.

"What happens if someone is defeated? Will they have a chance to fight again?" Someone asked.

Blue shook her head lightly. "Once you are defeated, you will lose your chance to continue the tournament."

"Anything else?"

"Is it fine if we accidentally kill our opponents?"

This time, Blue was stunned and she could not help but laugh. "A Void God Realm expert and a few Demon Ancestors from the Great Demon Empire will personally oversee the fights. I think it would be difficult if you want to kill your opponents."

Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. It would be a pity if they accidentally died from the battles.

"If there's nothing else, then please excuse me. Oh! By the way, everyone on the second floor will get a bottle of Deep Sea Spring Dew. I hope everyone will enjoy their wines..." Blue smiled at everyone before she left.

Cornelia stared at Blue's figure, lost in her own thoughts.

'God Stones, Dao Enlightenment Pill... Just how many more good things are you hiding, Jiu Shen?'

***

Outside the lotus building.

Meimei who was responsible for announcing the rewards for the Earth Battle had just finished her announcement. She stared at everyone with a brilliant smile on her face.

Among the crowd of participants, she saw a figure dressed in luxurious garments. From what she could remember, this man was an emperor of an empire in the Profound Dragon Continent. His name should be Elyk Silveria...

At this moment, Elyk was looking at a young demon with a calm look on his face. 'Now, I finally have the chance to kill you, Amon!'
