[Half a Package of Rations: Among the 120,000 contestants left, she’s probably the only one without hall or monarch-level strength, right?]

"Please rest assured, everyone. This petition focuses on individual strength, so the tournament design doesn’t include any team petitions." Seeing some dissatisfaction in the ments, Song Luo explained, "It’s allowed to advance by relying on other contestants within the rule boundaries."
"However, the tournament arrangements will also target such situations to a certain extent."
"For example, in the third round, you couldn’t advance with the help of other contestants." He smiled mysteriously, "The uping fifth round will be the same."
Hearing Song Luo’s words, the audience’s attention quickly shifted.
[Ming Yunzi: What are the specific rules for the fifth round? I saw on the rules page that the fifth round is a battle for occupation, but it doesn’t specify the details of the battle. ]
[Not Yunluo: Although the previous four rounds were exciting, except for the third round, the others were a bit plain. I hope this fight for occupation will surprise me.]
[520 Outside the Fence: Fight! Fight!]
[...]
Looking at the ments, Song Luo chuckled, "The uping fifth round test is called the Stone petition."
"At that time, 60,000 stone platforms will be floating in the air, and 120,000 contestants will pete for these 60,000 platforms. In the end, only half will successfully advance."
"Moreover, this petition will be conducted in a more intense manner, unlike the random matchups of the third round."
"Let’s wait and see."
Upon hearing Song Luo’s introduction, the ments section became more active.
[He OeO: Looking forward to it! After all, I still prefer seeing the contestants fight! There’s not much anticipation in races!]
[Shallow Chant Tides Rise and Fall: The person above just wants chaos! But I like it too!]
[Chang Bai who Likes Winter: Sounds interesting, not sure exactly how, but I’m looking forward to it!]

...
As more and more contestants boarded the Void Sea Water, finally reaching 120,000, Xie Venerate’s voice reappeared.
"Congratulations to all contestants for passing the fourth round and successfully advancing to the fifth round."
"You have three minutes to adjust, after which the fifth round will begin."
"The fifth round test, Stone petition."
As Xie Venerate spoke, countless tentacles emerged from Hong Shan’s body nearby.
The soft tentacles froze in the void, quickly hardening and their vibrant colors slowly fading to form stone platforms.
"The stone platforms formed by Rainbow Venerate’s tentacles total 60,000."
"After the fifth round begins, in a half-hour, you need to fight for the ownership of these 60,000 platforms. Only one contestant can occupy one platform."
"If, by the deadline, there are multiple contestants on one platform, one will be randomly left to advance."
Upon hearing this, all contestants looked solemn.
It sounds similar to the previous four rounds, still eliminating half.
But upon closer analysis, this test will be more brutal.
Only half of the contestants can occupy the platforms, while the remaining half won’t be directly eliminated like in previous rounds.
They can save themselves from elimination by replacing those on the platforms.
Will they willingly watch others standing on the platforms? The answer is no.
Therefore, in the half-hour duration of the fifth round, those on the platforms will be constantly challenged by others, possibly even attacked en masse.
And if there are multiple contestants on a platform at the deadline, only one will be randomly left to advance. This means each contestant on a platform must defeat any challenger aiming for their advancement with overwhelming power.
Otherwise, the risk of elimination increases.
"Oh no, oh no, I can’t pass this round." Gu Shumo said miserably, "I saw the rules say it’s about gaining an advancement spot, thought it would be like the first round..."
"If victory were determined just by arriving first, it wouldn’t be different from the first round race. The alliance surely wouldn’t do that." Qin Nan patted Gu Shumo on the shoulder, "No worries, even if you get eliminated this time, there will be other suitable tournaments in the future to participate in."
Given Gu Shumo’s strength, there’s hardly any hope for her in this round.
"Sister Gu, do you want me to send you to a platform later?" Lin Su softly offered.
"No need." Gu Shumo sighed, "Thank you, big boss. I’ll just watch you guys from here."
With her strength, getting on a platform means being a target, unable to secure a position while being besieged by monarch-level players. It’s better to stay put and be a passive observer.
This journey of the ’Divine Court Cup’ ends here!
"Okay." Lin Su nodded and turned to look at Youyou beside him.
"Mmm! (❁´◡`❁)" (I’ll step in during the last two rounds!)
Youyou volunteered.
The last two rounds require bat, where petition will be fiercer, possibly facing emperor-level opponents.
In parison, although the fifth round is cruel, Lin Su is unlikely to face emperor-level opponents.
"Okay." Lin Su nodded slightly, rubbing Youyou’s head, then put it back into the Beast Taming Space, and summoned Ghost.
Having rested for two rounds, Ghost has fully regained its strength.
