The Protector Novel

Chapter 3950 Come At Me All At Once

It took Gloria about half a month to finish absorbing the dragon ley line. As she gained a boost in her cultivation, it bolstered her confidence in triumphing over the impending battle for the title of Empyrean.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, Eclipse’s Empyrean selection trial had commenced. During the qualifying rounds, there were thirty outstanding females from various sects who had managed to stand out.

Standing on the stage was one of the elders of Eclipse. He was announcing the rules of the competition.

“Now, the competition is about to begin. Contestants will compete in a single elimination bracket, and matchups will be determined by drawing lots. Winners will advance to the next round. At the end of the competition, the last woman standing will be crowned our brand-new Empyrean. While sparring, contestants are reminded to observe proprieties and are strictly prohibited from endangering the life of their opponents. Contestants who fail to comply with the said rules will be disqualified from the competition. The number tags can be found in the wooden box below the arena. You may start drawing lots.”

Following the end of the announcement, all thirty candidates began to draw lots. Gloria, for one, was so calm and collected. That would make sense, for she had just devoured a dragon ley line, hence further increasing her power. Naturally, she would think nothing of her competitors.

“To the contestants with tag number one, kindly proceed to the area and begin preparation.” Thus began the first round of the Empyrean selection trial.

As the candidates ascended the arena one after another, every one of them put their ultimate techniques into practice. The battles were intense.
