Just as quickly, seven distinct pillars of light crashed down and rapidly materialized around the Grand Arbiter. They were the seven personal disciples of the Arbiter. These seven individuals were widely known across the cosmos as the Seven Pris. They possessed terrifying authority, directly overseeing many vital military and political branches of the Pan-Cosmic Alliance.
"Everyone. Welco to the Pan-Cosmic Human Alliance Tournant," the Grand Arbiter began to speak. His voice was not loud, yet it resonated clearly beside the ears of every single person on the planet. "Today, the most brilliant geniuses across the entire starry sky have gathered here for one supre purpose. They are fighting for the esteed title of Arbiter Candidate, and for the final reward reserved solely for the victor of this competition."
As he spoke, a profound light shone from his spatial ring. In the following second, a massive chunk of glowing crystal, large enough to cast a shadow over the entire arena floor, materialized high in the sky.
Every single expert present had a drastic change in expression when they felt the terrifying raw concepts radiating from it. Especially Grey.
"This right here, everyone, is the Law Crystal of the Myriad Law of Chaos," the Grand Arbiter declared. "I managed to encounter it by sheer chance inside a collapsing singularity at the very edge of our starry sky, and I was highly fortunate to extract it safely. It contains a supre, primordial law. I have personally tried to comprehend it, but I have not even managed to enter Minor Succession yet. However, observing this Law Crystal alone was enough for to easily comprehend all the other natural laws that exist in our universe. This specific law is a pure combination of everything in existence. This is my ultimate gift, combined with the generous contributions of the Emperors of the prominent Divine Kingdoms."
"You were with him when he found it, is that not right?" the Emperor of the Radiant Light Divine Kingdom whispered to the Emperor of the Cosmic Ascendant Divine Kingdom in the seating area below.
"Yes," the Emperor swiftly nodded, his eyes locked onto the massive crystal. "It is quite a terrifyingly mysterious law. Even I could not grasp a single fragnt of it."
"Whoever manages to successfully comprehend it will, without a doubt, beco a peerless genius the likes of which this cosmos has never seen," he added. The other Emperors sitting nearby nodded in solemn agreent.
Then, the Arbiter continued speaking, his voice pulling their attention back. "Aside from this supre crystal, there are naturally many other elite privileges and resources that co with the victory."
And just as quickly, space distorted nearby. The Patriarch and the three main Elders of the Dragon Clan suddenly materialized directly around the Grand Arbiter’s seating area. The Dragon Patriarch had an incredibly arrogant, prideful look plastered on his ancient face, while the other elders kept their cold calm. They casually exchanged a few brief words with the Arbiter and then audaciously sat down in their luxurious seats even before the Arbiter himself took a seat.
But the Grand Arbiter did not seem to mind this blatant display of disrespect at all.
"For now, let us not waste any more ti. Everyone, let the tournant officially begin!" The Grand Arbiter chuckled softly as he gestured toward his disciples, who imdiately nodded back at him in unison.
Boom! The solid center of the grand stadium floor violently burst open. From the deep crater, a massive, highly advanced chanical drone shot out. Strangely, its outer chassis was designed to look exactly like a giant, cartoonish raccoon.
"Hello, everyone! Welco to the supre Pan-Cosmic Tournant!" a loud, highly energetic robotic voice bood from the drone. "I am completely sure everyone here is hyped to the maximum. Because so am I!"
"Countless peerless geniuses have gathered here today. This event will undeniably mark a significant turning point in the history of our great Alliance!" The giant raccoon drone spun in the air. "The tournant format will be a strict one-versus-one duel amongst all registered contestants. The victor will proudly continue advancing up the bracket, and the loser will be eliminated on the spot. No second chances!"
"Highly simple, right?" The raccoon drone cheered loudly. "With all the rules established, let us get the very first matches started!"
As soon as the announcer finished speaking, the fabric of reality itself visibly destabilized within the stadium bounds. The spatial dinsions of the arena floor violently shifted and expanded outward, bending physics to accommodate the massive scale of the battles. From the twisting void, two colossal, heavily reinforced combat arenas fully ford, ready for the first combatants to step up.
[Are you bored right now, Grey?] the Fragnt asked after noticing the completely deadpan look on Grey’s face.
Of course I am. It has been a few days since I actually fought soone. I would have already entered the fray to beat everyone up if not for the impending arrival of the Abyss, Grey replied inwardly.
[Are you sure you do not want to tell your parents about this?]
What are they going to do? I cannot just reveal that I can peer into the threads of fate, can I? I am placing my bets on Tian Yuan. He might not be invincible, but the fact that he can sit up there so calmly speaks volus. Maybe he already has sothing planned.
The Abyss is a common enemy for all of us in this universe. But Tian Yuan is exactly the type to aggressively exploit dangerous situations to his own advantage. Let us wait and see, Grey added silently.
[That is true. I just hope nothing irreversible happens,] the Fragnt replied.
[But rember, Tian Yuan might be acting calm strictly because he is just a clone,] the Fragnt cautioned. [He can also utilize world-breaking Source Power. Do not forget that, Grey.]
If anything goes terribly wrong, we will imdiately switch worlds, Grey replied calmly. Or we will simply use our trump card.
I am certain it will have its uses.
Hearing this, the Fragnt froze. [But that is a one-ti use! Are you sure you want to waste it here?]
Well, we do not want to see innocent people dying left and right, do we?
[Hm.]
[By the way, many experts are actively glancing at you right now,] the Fragnt noted.
