Since they came to train in the [Dimensional Room] and had ess to resources such as pills and phoenix blood, Jka, Klin, Aine, Nanda, Kelly, and Zenia arrived in the 1st and 2nd Layer of the Superior Wizard Realm.


    It was almost time to go back, as the tournament would start over. Theo, together with the girls, left the [Dimensional Room] and appeared inside the ark.


    "Hellodies and gentlemen. The first match of the third stage of the martial arts tournament is starting now," the Presenter said with enthusiasm, "Let the first two participants enter the arena: Vincent vs. Bianca!"


    "HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"


    The audience apuded and shouted as the two participants appeared in the arena.


    "We arrived on time," Theomented.


    "Yes." Mizuki and the rest nodded in unison.


    As they started to talk, the fight in the arena started. Bianca created a dragon of mes and attacked Vincent, who tried to defend himself with a shield made of earth, but it was not enough and when he thought of moving away, Bianca increased the density of the mes, looking like a me thrower. She burned Vincent, who was forced out of the arena by the formation or else he would have died.


    Now, Bianca had achieved a victory. If she got 8 more without losing, she would be qualified for the top 100.


    "You may now enter the arena: Lilith vs. Mario!" The Presenter shouted.


    "Going," Lilith said and went to the arena.


    Standing on the opposite side, Lilith saw Mario, who was a 20-something man almost 200 cm tall and with ck hair and light skin. On his arms were fish fins. His eyes were red and he had very sharp teeth.


    "Give up. You don''t stand a chance against me," said the piranha Fishman, showing his sharp teeth.


    "Really?" Lilith said sarcastically.


    Mario was annoyed as he shouted with a fierce expression, "Girl, I gave you a chance. Now I''m going to let you prove how painful your decision to not give up will be."


    "Shut up and let''s get this started soon." Lilith was not willing to listen to bullshit from this boy who found himself to be thest cookie in the package.


    "Begin!" The Presenter signaled with both of his hands while shouting.


    "Die!!" Running, Mario screamed as he made his arm fins grow into half-moon des.


    "Idiot." Lilith mysteriously appeared behind Mario and attacked his backbone. Meanwhile, Mario was confused and in great pain, since there appeared to be two Lilith''s, however, when he looked ahead again, he saw that the Lilith who was standing was turning into a shadow and returning to the original Lilith''s body that was behind him. This technique was called a shadow mirage. Lilith learned it after training all that time in the [Dimensional Room].


    Before leaving the arena, Lilith received a round of apuse, and many screams praising her.


    The tournament continued and soon Ariana''s turn came.


    "Please enter the arena: Eliana vs. Ariana!" The Presenter shouted.


    "I''m going." Although she said so, she hesitated and looked at Theo with a meaningful look.


    Theo put his hand on her face and kissed her lips. "Good luck."


    "Hehe. Thanks." Ariana smiled and flew towards the arena.


    "I quit!" Before anyone could say anything, Eliana, who already knew how strong Ariana was, didn''t dare fight her. She believed it was smarter to save her strength to try to get into the top 100.


    "... I can go back?" Ariana looked at the Presenter.


    "Ye- Yes. You won. Ariana won!" The Presenter came out of his stupor and shouted. However, this time, his announcement was not apanied by a round of apuse, but the girl who gave up didn''t care, as she had seen how strong Ariana was before.


    "I''m back," Ariana said as she came down from the air,nding on the ark.


    "Wee back," Theo told her.


    "Mm, it was to be expected, I presume," Yuki said to Ariana with a smile, "She saw you fighting before. It would be strange if She still wanted to go against you."


    ? "Yeah, that''s a burden that I must carry." Ariana rolled her eyes yfully and smiled.


    Everyone on the ark startedughing.


    "I think the next one is Nanda," Shina said as she looked at the panel. There she saw the people who had advanced and lost the fight.


    "Mm... I am confident of winning if it is not someone at the Spiritual Realm or very close to the Spiritual Realm," Nanda said.


    Although the martial arts tournament was taking ce, many cultivators, whether they were in the audience or even on private ships flying over the arena, looked in the direction of Theo''s ark. He was, after all, the youngest and most powerful cultivator on this. There was no way they weren''t curious.


    Just as Nanda calcted, it was her turn.


    "It is time to enter the arena: Nanda vs Otako!" The Presenter shouted.


    "Daddy..." Little Yui shot Theo a meaningful look and said something telepathically to him.


    In response, Theo just smiled and told her to be calm and not to worry.


    In the arena, Nanda stood a few meters away from the cultivator Otako, who was a 180 cm tall man with ck dog''s ears and a ck tail. He wasn''t exactly an animal, but rather a demi-human dog.


    "Babe, give up; I am on another level. I do not guarantee that you wille out unscathed if you ept to fight me." Otako tried to speak nonchntly but failed to disguise his arrogance when speaking.


    "Bark more; maybe you''ll convince me~" Although Nanda didn''t like to fight, she wouldn''t be silent if she was underestimated and provoked at the same time.


    "Insolent!" Otako screamed full of murderous intent and just hasn''t attacked yet, because the host hasn''t started the game yet.


    "You can start!"


    As soon as he heard that, Otako behaved like a rabid dog, running towards Nanda.


    Nanda, who had been strengthened by her affinity for lightning, shot towards Otako dressed in lightning ck.


    "Slow." Nanda''s voice echoed.


    Otako was immediately amazed. Nanda''s Lightning-d palms hit the left side of his chest and stomach, respectively.


    Before Otako could react, Nanda wagged her tail like a whip and whipped Otako''s back.


    Otako''s body hit the ground and sent out endless waves of earthquakes!


    Next thing, Otako was expelled from the formation with wounds spread all over his body. Nanda looked in his direction and took out a handkerchief and waved in the direction of Otako as if saying goodbye to a rtive who was leaving on a trip.


    "The winner is... Nanda!" The Presenter shouted with great happiness.
