Jay's third Feature selection unlocked the ability to establish System-recognized Factions, granting nurous advantages to those who joined. Much like the Forums, these factions were categorized into three types—Regional, Continental, and World Factions—each with strict requirents for formation.
For a Regional Faction, one had to maintain a Top-10 position in their Trial Region's Leaderboard for five consecutive days, and it would be exclusive to its respective region, barring outsiders from joining.
The sa principle applied to Continental Factions, as only those from the respective Trial Continent were allowed to join. As for the World Faction, everyone was included.
Having secured a Top-10 spot in the Trial World rankings for ten days, Jay easily t the criteria to establish a World Faction—an entity that transcended regional boundaries, allowing mbers from across the Trial World to unite under his banner.
Unlike his previous two feature selections, which were instantly announced to all Alpha Chosen, the Factions Feature remained dormant until Jay actively initiated it.
Now, faced with the looming threat of Tier-3 High-Phase Monsters, Jay saw the perfect opportunity to officialize his faction and expand his influence globally.
The mont he activated the feature, notifications surged through the Milkyway Trial Program, informing every participant that they had a chance to join the faction of the strongest Alpha Chosen.
The benefits of mbership were irresistible. The revelation that Jay possessed a thod to clear Obelisks even during rest periods sent waves of excitent across the participants. Initial skepticism faded the mont system notifications confird his rapid Obelisk conquests, proving his claims beyond doubt.
Further solidifying his position, Jay used the World Forum to reveal a major advantage.
╔═══════════════════╗
World Forum
Jay (TW.1):One of the rewards my team secured from the 2nd Tournant allows any Obelisk conquered by or my team to absorb all monsters within that Trial Region, effectively making the region monster-free.
By the ti Day-21 begins, all 4th Order Obelisks in Continents 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 will be under my control. That ans there will be no more monsters roaming outside—if you want to hunt, you'll have to enter the Obelisks, where killing monsters grants rewards 17,000 tis greater than normal.
I doubt any other team can offer such a high return—or anything remotely close to it. Joining ORION VANGUARD gives you free access to inter-Obelisk transportation, allowing you to reap the highest possible benefits while retaining most of your earned rewards.
╚═══════════════════╝
The 'TW1' denoted his ranking as the first in the Trial World, adding even more weight to everything he said.
When Jay ntioned the reward factor and the enormously high rewards it offered, everyone was astounded. However, since it ca from him, they had no reason to doubt its credibility.
What ca as a relief to almost everyone—especially those in the 4th to 10th Trial Continents—was his assurance that all the Obelisks in those continents would be conquered by the start of Day 21. ℞ãŊọ𝐛Êȿ
The ability to transfer all the monsters from each Trial Region to their respective Obelisks resolved a major dilemma faced by nearly every Alpha Chosen.
Simply by joining Jay's faction, they could gain massive benefits with minimal obligations.
However, unlike most, a few individuals who had already committed to other factions found themselves at a crossroads, torn between their current allegiance and the tempting promises of Jay's faction.
Despite being among the top 1000 who were allowed to comnt, none of them voiced their opinions in the World Forum, fearing they were not in a position to challenge Jay.
Even those in the Top 10 remained silent—except for one individual. The only one ranked just below Jay in the World Rankings dared to speak up.
╔═══════════════════╗
Regaz (TW.2):Jay, your influence might be welcod elsewhere, but the 4th Continent belongs to and my faction. We can handle our own affairs, and there's no need for you to ddle where you're not needed. Stick to your own conquests.
╚═══════════════════╝
Everyone was taken aback by the rude response.
Regaz was no unknown figure. His na was widely recognized, as he had been the first to reach higher Tiers every single ti.
In the 4th Trial Continent, his influence was even more substantial, especially after he founded his faction, Regnant Court, which quickly expanded, with nearly one-fifth of the Alpha Chosen in that continent joining him.
If not for Jay, Regaz would have been the strongest Alpha Chosen, with only Drogor as his true competitor.
Born into royalty on his ho planet, Regaz had secured his position as the Crown Prince and was destined to beco the next Emperor. However, he had always been a prideful individual—perhaps a little too prideful.
Jay had learned about this side of Regaz during one of his encounters with Urzo, who had remarked that Regaz's arrogance would be his downfall, as he sought to stand above all others.
If Regaz had been more approachable, like Drogor, or at least willing to communicate politely, Jay would have responded in kind. But after such an unruly first interaction, he had no intention of letting Regaz walk all over him.
Jay didn't even bother to respond to Regaz directly. Instead, he addressed the entire Trial World, making his stance clear.
╔═══════════════════╗
Jay (TW.1):If anyone wishes to face the monsters themselves instead of having them sent to the Obelisks, simply state so in your Regional Forums. I will take note of it, and those regions will remain unaffected—monsters will continue to roam freely there.
However, regardless of individual preferences, the Obelisks in Continents 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 will be conquered. If anyone believes they deserve authority over them, they are free to challenge directly and take them by force.
╚═══════════════════╝
It was obvious to everyone that Jay's words were directed specifically at Regaz and anyone who shared similar thoughts.
Regaz was left with no rebuttal, especially when he himself was uncertain of victory against Jay in a duel. After all, according to the Power Index displayed, Jay had exceeded 500, indicating that he was stronger than a peak Tier-6 lifeform and on the level of a Tier-7 lifeform.
Despite his confidence in reaching that point in the near future, Regaz was still far from being that strong. Unable to argue against the sheer gap in power, he could only remain silent.
Following that, neither Idran, the leader of another powerful faction in the 4th Trial Continent—the Cipher Guild—nor the usually outspoken Drogor had anything to say.
Jay took advantage of the silence and continued, stating that those from the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Trial Continents should fend for themselves on Day 21.
He also ntioned that those who weren't confident in their survival didn't have to stay in the Trial World during the rest period. Furthermore, by Day 22, all 4th Order Obelisks would be conquered.
While this wasn't exactly good news for them, the fact that it was only for a day made it sowhat manageable. After all, it was far better than having to indefinitely survive against hordes of Tier-3 High-Phase monsters.
Once Jay had said everything he needed to, he stopped paying attention to the World Forum. Instead, he had MJ monitor it and returned to his training.
anwhile, many new factions beca accessible to everyone through the Faction feature in their STATUS screens.
Aside from Orion Vanguard, both Cipher Guild and Regnant Court were officially registered as World Factions.
So among the Alpha Pri Prospects were qualified to create their own factions but chose not to. Instead, they focused on becoming stronger, avoiding the burdens that ca with managing a faction.
As for Continental and Regional factions, they began sprouting one after another, each offering various incentives—many even promising more than they could afford—in an attempt to attract mbers and strengthen their factions.
However, most people didn't even consider smaller factions, especially when they received faction invitations from the top-ranking faction—Orion Vanguard.
While a few remained skeptical, the majority joined in droves. Upon joining, they were introduced to Orion Vanguard's internal structure, which was divided into four ranks: Core, Inner, Outer, and Initiate Circles.
Most new mbers found themselves in the Initiate Circle and were stunned by the stringent requirents for advancing to higher ranks.
They also learned about the concept of Reward Points, which compensated them based on their contributions. These points could be used to purchase various items and valuables, giving them hope that with enough effort, they could grow stronger and climb the ranks within Jay's faction.
As ti passed, the World Forum buzzed with activity—so discussing useful information, others spreading irrelevant chatter, while many used the platform to learn about different regions or promote their factions.
Every 15 to 20 minutes, notifications appeared, reaffirming Jay's earlier statent that all the Obelisks in 4th to 10th Continents would be conquered by the end of the rest period.
Even the skeptics began to believe that it was truly possible. This growing confidence in Jay's faction led even more Alpha Chosen to join, making Jay's faction seem even more trustworthy and reliable.
By the end of the rest period, out of the 2 million or so surviving Alpha Chosen from the original 11 million, more than two-thirds had joined Orion Vanguard.
