Roan snorted in response. "Hmph! And what makes you think you can ask for conditions here? We can simply steamroll your defenses easily now that there's no one above the Nascent Soul Realm."
Zangron didn't deny that, saying, "That's true. But even if that's the case, we'll use everything we can to delay your advance. It's indeed a meaningless defense, but I can't just give up on my objectives."
Havek pondered over it for a bit before asking, "Does it have something to do with your family?"
Zangron nodded, replying, "My plan was to win the continental war and use the advantages I got as the leading disciple to help me look for my wife. My friends here also have some people they wish to look for, so it would be best if you could help them as well. If you can use your influence from this victory to help us investigate, our region will surrender straight away."
Rean shrugged his shoulders as he told him, "You know? If you had simply asked me that, I would have helped you either way. There was simply no need for all this preparation of yours."
"This..." Zangron was taken aback to hear that. "Aren't you friends with Havek? That guy doesn't do anything that doesn't benefit himself. He isn't exactly a bad guy, but he's not the most helpful either. I thought all of you would be pretty much like him."
"Ahem..." Havek immediately intervened when he heard that, saying, "I'm very happy with my personality, thank you. Now, whether Rean wants to help or not, that's not my problem. Well, he would probably be the only one between us to do that."
Luina and Roan nodded in agreement. If it was them, they wouldn't have listened to start with. Rean had always had that kind of weak spot.
"So what?!" Rean didn't care. "He wants to find his family, and so do we. Can't you empathize with him a little bit? It's not like it's a big problem to ask the higher-ups to help us with it later. We already planned to ask them for help anyway." For Luina and the others, the twins were still looking for their parents. It wasn't completely wrong since they didn't know where their mother could be found.
Zangron and his friends looked at each other before looking back at Rean, asking him, "How can we trust your words?"
Rean's expression changed in response as he told them, "Unfortunately for you, it's not like you have much choice. All I can do at the moment is promise that I'll ask the Jamai Sect's elders to help you with it as thanks for the new continent my group and I got for them. If that's not enough, then we'll simply attack and take down your region. It's just as Roan said, we already won this continental war. Any extra struggles are just a waste of time."
Hearing that, Roan nodded, satisfied. "At least you aren't that helpless."
Zangron, Frinke, and Zlois then had a small discussion through Divine Sense. In the end, Zangron was the leader of the Hatisphere Region's disciples, so he could call it off if he wanted. Also, due to the monitoring formation, his elders knew that this war was already done, so surrendering now or not would make no difference whatsoever.
Eventually, Zangron nodded at Rean. "Alright, I shall hold up to your promise."
Soon after, Zangron moved to a higher point before using his Divine Energy to spread the news. "We have reached an agreement with the Walfure Region, so there will be no need to continue this meaningless battle. The Hatisphere Region is now under Walfure's control."
Immediately, this message was passed to all the battlefronts around Hatisphere Region, making all their forces drop their weapons. No one felt sad because of that, though. After all, they knew just how big the difference between them and the Walfure Region's forces was. Well, of course, there were a few sad ones, the disciples of the Lanstreo Continent. They obviously came to this competition as one of the fan favorites to win but lost to an unnamed continent in the end.
As soon as the message was received by everyone, the sky suddenly changed color. A blue hue covered the entire Free Continent, making even the monitoring spheres of energy change with it. After that, everyone heard the voice of Fosleve, the Rambram Sect Master.
"Congratulations to the Jamai Sect. From now on, the Jamai Sect will be joining the Center of the Realm of Gods and can rename the continent as the sect sees fit. For the previous residents who survived during the competition, you will receive compensation from our Rambram Sect, so just return to your homes. As for the participants who came from outside, several spatial gates have been prepared for you. We shall meet on the other side."
It was a short message but conveyed the necessary information for the moment.
Rean and Roan looked at each other and nodded. "Let's go back and take our sect back."
With that, the Walfure Region's forces were dispersed, with most of them teleporting back. Rean, Roan, Luina, Havek, Olly, etc... all returned to Butiva Country, where the System Sect was located. Naturally, the sect members were all cheering when they saw them return as they also heard the news.
However, Roan had never been the type to celebrate, so he made things simple. "We're returning the System Sect back into the Dimensional Realm. Be ready to move out."
Well, everyone knew his personality, so no one was surprised that he didn't want to waste more time there.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The real System Sect disciples returned to the sect while those who weren't were sent out. After that, the twins placed their hands on the sect building's core and sent the entire sect into the Dimensional Realm. It's just that the sect now had a lot more members who decided to join it during the competition. It wasn't a problem, though. It had been years since the twins got the fragments, which meant the twins had already upgraded the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.
To know everything they decided to use their Destiny Points in, one would need to go back a few years. To be more exact, to the moment that the Soul Gem System finished upgrading its processing power.
