The majestic voice of the King of Hell resonated throughout the heavens and earth, echoing back and forth between the valleys, carrying an imnse sense of oppression.
Georgia’s exquisitely beautiful face turned incomparably stern. She tilted her head to look at the sky and said, "You’re rely an incomplete incarnation still in the process of being brewed. For you to speak such words, don’t you think you’re being overly arrogant?" After saying this, her powerful demigod aura emanated forth, a super-strong presence that surged like billowing smoke, reaching straight to the skies, comparable to the radiance of the Divine Artifact, Cui Guang.
Beside her, Huang Yi suddenly felt an unparalleled oppressiveness emanating from Georgia, crushing down upon him! He and Little Dragon were completely unable to withstand this pressure; they couldn’t even fly and were directly forced downward, crashing to the ground. Little Dragon flapped his wings repeatedly, barely managing to land safely without being seriously hurt.
"You’ve just finished forging your Divine Artifact, and your strength is currently at its weakest. To face with such confidence—aren’t you being a bit too conceited?" At that mont, the King of Hell seed to sense Georgia’s powerful war intent and mimicked her tone to retort.
As his voice fell, the entire sky instantly turned incredibly dim. Vast swathes of black clouds spread across the heavens, blocking out the sunlight. Daylight transford into utter night in an instant. Those black magic clouds churned nonstop, as though sothing was stirring within them, disturbing the wind and cloud currents.
The King of Hell had yet to show himself, but he had already triggered such a celestial phenonon. His thods were beyond comprehension, far beyond anything Huang Yi could imagine.
"Roarrr!" The next mont, Georgia’s body trembled, and she suddenly expanded rapidly, her back sprouting enormous wings. She transford into an unimaginably majestic and colossal Giant Dragon!
This dragon’s body size was ridiculously massive. When its pair of wings stretched out, they almost entirely enveloped the mountain, blotting out the skies and the sun. Each Dragon Scale on its body was as large as a door panel, gleaming in a vivid, multicolored brilliance. Every single scale seed like it had been ticulously crafted into an artistic masterpiece—densely covering the entire dragon’s body in breathtaking beauty.
This was undeniably Georgia’s true form—the Holy Giant Dragon!
Although her body was imnsely enormous, floating in the sky like a mountain peak, it never looked bulky or unwieldy. Instead, she carried herself with extre elegance and nobility, possessing a flawlessly proportioned physique that simultaneously exuded both strength and beauty.
The next mont, Georgia charged upward toward the churning dark clouds, her massive body hurtling into the sky like a mountain colliding with the heavens!
Each powerful beat of her enormous wings triggered a super-strong hurricane below, uprooting trees in the forest, sending debris flying everywhere. The air beca chaotic and turbulent, obscuring visibility!
Huang Yi and Little Dragon were also blown backward by the fierce winds, tumbling uncontrollably like kites with broken strings!
Despite Huang Yi’s strength, which far surpassed that of other high-level Holy Domain experts in the sa rank, he couldn’t even withstand the hurricanes caused by a single wingbeat from Georgia! It was clear just how extraordinarily mighty this demigod-level Georgia truly was.
And yet, such a powerful being was actually being forced to utilize her strength against the King of Hell’s incomplete incarnation, which made imagining the true strength of the King of Hell even more astonishing!
Almost instantly, Georgia flew into the high-altitude black clouds, disappearing entirely from sight, even the hurricanes she caused gradually subsiding.
Huang Yi looked up, but all he could see was the endless churn of black clouds, completely unable to witness the super-charged clash of strength between demigods above, which was steeped in a mysterious aura.
A battle on this scale, if waged on the ground, would shatter any terrain, no matter how vast. During the Near Ancient Period’s great war, two continents were broken into over two hundred pieces due to the Seven Archdemons’ battle.
Huang Yi watched the skies for a while, unable to catch sight of Georgia and the King of Hell’s fight. Figures of their caliber moved so swiftly across distances that they’d likely already taken their fight far beyond imaginable bounds.
Huang Yi rode Little Dragon back to the room where Gibit was located, quietly waiting.
...
anwhile, in another Hero Trial Secret Realm, a player was also looking up at the sky, but his was filled with brilliant sunlight, and the smile on his face was as radiant as the sunshine.
The reason for his joy was a System Prompt notifying him that he had completed his Hero Trial!
This player appeared to be in his thirties, broad-shouldered and burly, with a full beard—a stereotypical Western strongman. Yet, he was dressed in a sleek green Mage Robe, revealing himself as a frail Mage Class player.
This man, none other than the super-first-class mage on par with the Pope himself, was Eiffel!
Eiffel was the top-ranked player in France and one of the most formidable in all of Europe, rivaling players like T.N.T. He was one of the ten nominees for Best Individual Award at the Third Annual Grand Gathering.
His chosen profession was that of a Wind Mage, an uncommon Magic Elent profession akin to the Pope’s Thunder Attribute magic.
Eiffel was also the only player in the European region to receive the rare Na Bestowing, an honor even T.N.T didn’t possess. His bestowed na was Mage Emperor, which carried two anings in Chinese: one indicating he was the Emperor of Mages, and the other asserting he was the Emperor among French players.
Two months ago, Eiffel had begun his Hero Trials, much earlier than Huang Yi had started. During this ti, he had sacrificed valuable level-grinding opportunities, reaching only Level 177, which was considerably lower than other super-first-class masters. Despite his efforts, he failed nurous tis due to lacking a Hero’s Command, which could reduce the trial’s difficulty. But after persistent struggle, he finally succeeded!
The next mont, he was extracted from the Secret Realm.
Half an hour later, Eiffel received one of the last two remaining Heroic Aura shares from the Oskan Royal Academy, absorbing it completely.
Thus, a deep, resounding announcent echoed across the heavens and earth—
"[System Announcent]: [Mage Emperor] has passed the Hero Trial, becoming a Heaven-Sent Hero."
Another hero had been born!
He was now the fifth Heaven-Sent Hero following Dragon Emperor, Sword Emperor, Pope, and Dongfeng!
Unlike the Pope and Dongfeng, who beca heroes through alternate ans, Eiffel had earned his hero status through genuine accomplishnt.
Huang Yi’s incarnation was currently at the top floor of Dragon City’s City Hall, alongside Qin Shiyu. Upon hearing the announcent, his heart tightened!
On his first day undergoing Hero Trials, Huang Yi had heard a ntor ntion that the Oskan Royal Academy only had three shares of Heroic Aura remaining, but there were four contenders vying for them.
Now, Sharp Sword had succeeded and beco a hero, and Eiffel had also passed his trial—leaving only one share of Heroic Aura!
The remaining contenders included Huang Yi himself and a mysterious man in black attire he had glimpsed during his first visit to the Hero Hall.
"Brother Yi, what’s wrong? Is there an issue with that announcent?" Qin Shiyu asked, reaching out to touch his face upon noticing his pale expression.
"It’s nothing," Huang Yi replied, taking Qin Shiyu’s hand and gently shaking his head. "It’s just that my Hero Trial may encounter so difficulties."
"Don’t worry," Qin Shiyu softly comforted him, "From the day you entered The Second World, until now, you’ve never known failure. How could this continue forever? Even the strongest must face defeat at so point! If you fail this Hero Trial, you can still beco a hero like the Pope and Dongfeng did, through other ans!"
Huang Yi nodded slightly, his tone somber, "That’s true, but I can’t help feeling unwilling. With the Hero’s Command, completing the Hero Trial would allow to imdiately level up by 20! The alternative thod used by the Pope and Dongfeng cos without level advancent."
"Instantly gaining 20 levels!" Qin Shiyu exclaid in astonishnt upon hearing this benefit. "I can’t even imagine how high your level will be after your Reincarnation ends. Your accumulated experience points are already so imnse—an additional twenty levels is simply beyond comprehension!"
"We’ll soon see just how much I can climb. I’ll aim to complete this Hero Trial before my Reincarnation ends," Huang Yi said, turning to gaze contemplatively out the window.
On the other side of Hero’s Continent, the Pope, T.N.T, and Miyamoto Musashi were discussing Eiffel’s feat in the Invading Army-controlled key city—Red Cliffs City.
"Excellent! Excellent! The Mage Emperor has beco a hero. Once he acquires a Demon Core in the coming days, he can ascend to the Heavenly Realm, enabling him to swiftly return to Hero’s Continent to join the national war. With two Heavenly Domain heroes here, our chances of victory have significantly increased," Miyamoto Musashi remarked with a faint smile and subtle approval in his expression.
T.N.T nodded and added, "anwhile, Ling is undergoing Hero Trials as well. I spoke to him on the phone yesterday; he ntioned he has a Hero’s Command, which will reduce the trial’s difficulty. He should complete it soon. When that happens, we’ll have three Heavenly Domain heroes on our side! Even if the God of Slaughter completes his Reincarnation, we can still defeat them."
"Don’t underestimate the God of Slaughter," the Pope warned, shaking his head. "We should strive to conclude this national war before his Reincarnation ends. I’ve just received word that next Friday, the God of Slaughter, Dragon Spike, Dao Feng, and Yang Yuheng—the four most vital leaders of the Hero Legion—will each lead a legion to besiege our crucial city of Red Cliffs. This presents an excellent opportunity. We can have the Fallen General take the field and kill all four of them in one swoop. The system has an important determination: if we can eliminate all key enemy leaders in a single strike, our chances of victory will greatly increase."
"Next Friday, then?" Miyamoto Musashi mused aloud. "By that ti, the God of Slaughter will roughly reach Level 168 in Reincarnation, leaving just one week until his cycle ends—a good tifra." His expression shifted to one of eager anticipation. "Watching him witness his nation’s defeat in the final monts of Reincarnation will surely be agonizing for him!"
"Indeed! He is destined for imnse suffering!" T.N.T chuckled sinisterly, his face dark and brooding. "By then, all eight of our super-first-class masters should have ascended to the Heavenly Realm, with substantial surges in power. Coupled with Eiffel and Ling as Heavenly Domain heroes, Unbeaten’s soldiers of annihilation, the Fallen General as a suprely powerful trump card, and the Demon Clan’s new wave of vanguard forces—deploying all these resources in a single conclusive battle, I refuse to believe the Hero Legion can endure!"

Tomorrow, I need to go to the hospital for follow-up blood tests due to a significant issue from the last physical exam. I’ll rest extra today, so there’s only this Chapter—sorry for the inconvenience. (To be continued.
