Chapter 2163 End of the Continental Tournament (1)
After weeks on Elves Island, the time had finally come for Minos' party to leave.
After nearly two weeks of competition, the time had come to determine the ultimate winner of the tournament.
Many groups of bettors and competitors had won many things, but the grand prize had yet to be decided. But just today, the last bet of Minos' remaining competitor was decided, and only one bet remained to end the tournament.
The Sky Whales group was in first place, while Minos' group was in second place, with a difference of only 2 points!
As long as they scored in the last bet, the Black Plain Empire group would win the main bet!
Meanwhile, Sista was in fourth place, an excellent position considering that they weren't even one of the top 15 powers in the Spiritual World.
Fourth place in this ranking only carried a monetary prize, which was not as good as what everyone wanted to win in the main bet.
And so the Continental Tournament came to an end as Sarah's group completed the last mission given to them by Minos!
...
Inside the Spatial Kingdom where the Secret Hunt was taking place, Sarah, Kendrick, and their four allies were on the run.
They had just gathered a resource that Minos had ordered them to collect and were being chased not only by the local beasts but also by other competitors who were still in this space.
That was the last day of the competition, so the number of competitors in this Spatial Kingdom had dropped a lot, currently standing at just 18 people, counting the 6 people from the group sent by Minos.
Most of those participating in the Secret Hunt had given up or completed their missions and returned to Elves Island. Only the Sky Whale group and one of their allies were still there with Sarah's team on their final mission to eliminate Minos' group.
The Sky Whale Tribe no longer had a chance to score in the event, but they could still prevent their competitors from scoring more points and taking their position!
That was exactly what was happening right now as Sarah's group moved through the magnificent Spatial Kingdom, trying to keep the item they had just collected in their possession.
If they could hold on to it for another seven minutes, their mission would be complete, and the Black Plain Empire would be crowned the winner of the tournament's main bet!
Thus, Sarah's entire group moved to escape their pursuers and the dangerous attacks sent in their direction.
They all had their Soul Avatars active as they moved their forces as far as they could, quickly approaching exhaustion.
But at this moment, it was all worth it. As long as the one with the resources in hand managed to escape, all the sacrifices of the group would be worth it.
However, winning would not be easy! While their group was made up of low, mid, and high-level Sages, their enemies were mostly high-level Sages between levels 87 and 89!
"Sarah and Kendrick, run! We'll stay behind to get in the way of their strongest men!" One of those whom George had chosen to represent Sista shouted at the two siblings.
Seeing the situation getting more and more complicated, Kendrick and Sarah didn't hesitate to move, leaving their allies behind. As much as they didn't like it, they were fully aware that they couldn't withstand a fight with levels 87, 88, and 89 Sky Whales.
Even their allies couldn't hold out for long, so they had to run in order to gain an advantage!
"Kendrick, take this resource with you." Sarah handed her brother an item that looked like a red-orange egg. "I'll stay behind to buy you time."
Kendrick took it and continued forward, focusing everything on his movement technique.
Sarah didn't hesitate to take on the enemies who ignored her and Kendrick's four allies, immediately using her innate skill to try to impede her opponents' movement.
She demonstrated her mastery of the mental, defensive, and offensive techniques made famous by the hands of Minos, helping to make the journey more difficult for the enemies.
Even so, two land beasts and a level 86 Sky Whale managed to get past Sarah and make their way toward Kendrick, who was only losing his advantage as he moved.
"Shit!" He saw that there were still three minutes left, but he felt that he would fail this last mission if he didn't fight here and now.
Storing the egg-like object in his spatial ring, he stopped flying and came face to face with his three remaining enemies.
"Hand over what you have, Kendrick Stuart. I'll let you go as soon as you give it to me." Said the level 86 Sky Whale, currently in his humanoid form.
Kendrick showed his spatial ring to the three individuals surrounding him while his aura was at its maximum. "Are you willing to die for it?"
"Die?" The whale laughed.
He respected Kendrick. This young Crown Prince of the Black Plain Empire was very similar to Minos in many ways. But even if this young man were level 77 Emperor Stuart himself, he wouldn't be a threat to this level 86 Sky Whale.
"Try it, boy. If you can threaten my life, your victory will be just."
Kendrick was already ready to fight. Upon hearing the whale's words, he moved in front of his opponent and did something that only his father had demonstrated until that day.
Chaotic Gravity: Black Hole!
Devouring Art: Black Hole!
He immediately fused his two main techniques, using some of the immortal energy in his body as the basic foundation for his fusion.
As a result, a black hole many times more powerful than the one Minos was capable of at level 77 appeared in that normally stable spatial region.
The moment Kendrick performed such a fusion, the whale that flew toward him to attack him suddenly felt his entire being tremble while the two beasts surrounding the young prince sensed terrible omens.
Even the other participants who were fighting a short distance away noticed something terrifying in the direction of where Kendrick had acted while the spatial walls of this Spatial Kingdom trembled.
"Fuck!"
Not only the enemies of Sarah's group said this, but also Kendrick's own teammates in this Spatial Kingdom.
Kendrick himself hadn't expected such a powerful attack, and he felt a bleak sensation growing in front of him from that black hole.
Meanwhile, the space of that cultivation shrine was distorting, as if the black hole was trying to swallow it up!
Those closest to this phenomenon felt an enormous suction force trying to absorb them, and they immediately shifted their focus in fear.
