"Boom!"
An explosion wrecks the entire black platform as a fiery explosion engulfs one of the two men. The explosion was so powerful that even from dozens of feet away, Yoze was able to feel the hot air from the explosion hitting his skin.
Even the thick black smoke that took on the form of a rising mushroom cloud reached a height of dozens of feet, showing how much power was behind the explosion. Without even blinking for a second, Yoze felt his interest peak as he stared at the smoke, waiting to see what the other did to win the battle.
"Shockwave!" A deep stern voice came out of an explosion as a loud sizzling sound similar to electricity quickly followed.
At extremely quick speeds, a five-centimeter-thick ring of yellow electricity exploded out of the black cloud as it rushed to shock the other young man. As if expecting this, the young men outside of the explosion waited just as the yellow ring was about to hit him before his black leather boots burned red as he stomped his boot on the ground.
"Boom"
The young man had the power of a much smaller and weaker explosion to send himself dozens of feet into the air, dodging that lethal ring of electricity. Unfortunately, the young man wearing black boots made the wrong decision as once he reached the apex of his jump, a humanoid black shadow appeared behind him.
The humanoid black shadow was completely silent as it placed its hands on the young man's shoulders and seemed to fuse into the young man's body. On the other hand, the young man never noticed that his body was being taken over as he focused his entire attention on the black mushroom cloud.
By the time the young man's feet touched the ground, it was obvious to the audience that the young man had lost since the young man had lost control of over half of his body and yet didn't notice. He only noticed the abnormality with his body when he activated his jump spell, causing his black boots to once again turn burning red, but when he tried to move, he couldn't move his arms and everything below his chest.
"I surrender!"
Knowing that he had thoroughly lost, the young man's face turned ugly as he gritted his teeth in anger before surrendering. Even though he hated the fact that he had missed out on this opportunity to get sect points, he knew that it wasn't worth losing his life over.
"Immortal Shadow Sect score is 20 victories, and Immortal Palace Sect is 10 victories!"
The moment the young man from the Immortal Palace Sect gave up, a tall man with thick green glasses, long green hair that was slicked back, and wore a suit that was colored in different shades of green phased onto the field through the center of the platform. The moment that tall green man's head had left the platform, he immediately shouted out the loss of the Immortal Palace Sect.
Hearing that his opponent had surrendered and he had won, the humanoid shadow quickly let go of control over the young man's body and transformed back into the other young man. Without a pause, the young man who had just claimed victory for his sect slightly smiled as he walked off stage without another word.
"Who else would like to participate in the tournament!? Remember, both the Immortal Palace Sect and the Immortal Shadow Sect offer sect points for those who win battles!"
"Don't miss out on this opportunity to get points and get your name out there!" The man with the thick green glasses shouted out once again to the audience of several hundred people.
Silence quickly engulfed the entire platform and half the audience as the student for the Immortal Palace Sect stayed silent. Watching some of the best students in the sect lose more than 2/3 of the battles shows that there was a clear difference in combat ability between the two schools.
It was especially difficult for the rest of the students of the Immortal Palace Sect to agree to join the tournament because they had run out of students who were at least in the Crystal Skull realm. While the Immortal Shadow Sect students were staring at them with hungry eyes as they still had at several students that had recently reached the Crystal Brain realm.
With such a massive difference in their realms, it was extremely unlikely for any of the students from the Immortal Palace Sect to get the victory. Meaning that there was less than a zero percent chance that they would get the valuable sect points and instead had a better chance of getting themselves accidentally killed before being able to surrender.
"I volunteer these six new students from the Immortal Palace Sect." Suddenly Immortal Patty's voice broke the silence at the base of the Southern Mountain.
Causing the heads of hundreds of students to turn their attention to the colossus sword flying above their heads. Seeing such a massive weapon, many of the students from the Immortal Palace Sect's eyes lit up.
"An immortal has volunteered these students; they must have reached such a high level that he isn't afraid of embarrassing himself. They should have at least reached the Crystal Brain." A defeated female student on the Immortal Palace Sect's side felt her heart fill with hope.
As a student who was still developing her Crystal Brain, she had placed some of her hope on increasing the safety of the process by participating in this tournament. Yet she got a long and drawn-out loss that she had to surrender due to not wanting to exhaust her crystal energy storage below 50 percent.
Even though she lost, she still had some hope in gaining some sect points, in the end, to not make this trip worthless. All she had to do was wait for someone else to take care of the strong opponents on the field before stepping back into the ring.
It wasn't just her who had this same plan. Many of the students from both sides had long planned to farm the other school for their sect points. Unfortunately, they were both too clever to allow themselves to be farmed unless there was truly a large discrepancy in the two schools' combat abilities.
