"Both of you are... strong." Sunny stated, his expression hardening into that of a strict commander. He snapped his fingers, and an overwhelming force materialized: tens of millions of Mercenaries and God Rank entities stood ready for battle.
"The competition will start in some weeks," he announced, his voice carrying absolute authority. "During this time, you will keep practicing your bloodline skills with these Mercenaries. Note: these guys mean to kill, so don't hold back, or you will get injured. Day and night, you will keep fighting until the competition begins."
"...?!!"
Both Ellen and Jinx stared at the seemingly endless horde, aghast. Fighting non-stop for two weeks straight against lethal opponents—this wasn't training, it was sheer, exhausting punishment.
"Start now!" Sunny commanded, and instantly vanished from their sight. The moment he disappeared, the Mercenaries drew their swords, splitting into two massive, coordinated teams, and charged the girls.
Sunny reappeared high above the battlefield, observing the chaos. "You two are strong, but you are lacking in fighting experience," he murmured to himself.
"I wouldn't say that to Jinx, that girl is crazy, but Ellen definitely needs it. Living creatures tend to grow faster in a death battle." He flicked his fingers, and countless airborne creatures made of pure earth shot out of the ground, flying toward the battle to add a new aerial threat.
"This will be fun," he said, settling cross-legged in the air, closing his eyes, and focusing his perception on every micro-movement and energy fluctuation below. His goal wasn't just physical strength; it was refining instinct and battle synchronization.

[Supreme World.]
Lester sat on his throne, his face framed by a light, soft chuckle.
"Sunny is truly something else, he didn't hesitate one bit and unlocked both their seals? Is he truly so scared of me?" He shook his head lightly, amused by Sunny's drastic move.
"But he just made things significantly harder for me. I was the only faction that knew the girls' location in the Lower World, but unlocking the seals will instantly alert the other two major factions." He exhaled slowly. "They can't enter the Lower World now, but once the world restrictions fully shatter, they will rush forth."
'I don't even know why those two powerful factions are looking for them. Is it just the bloodline, or something more ancient?' Lester pondered, a flicker of genuine anxiety mixed with his arrogance.
BAM!!
Lester's head snapped up toward the throne hall doors. A lone figure strode in: Violet, the terrifying 'Core Beauty' under Lilith. Her two red eyes were fixed on him with cold disdain, her dragon tail swinging with effortless power, and her two red horns seemed to glow under the hall's light.
"Why are you here?" Lester asked, his previous amusement vanishing, replaced by a deep frown. He disliked Violet intensely, and her appearance meant Lilith was interfering.
"Mother has a task for you," Violet stated flatly, not bothering to stop her advance or show Lester an ounce of respect.
Lester's eyebrow twitched. "At least speak respectfully!" he muttered coldly, attempting to assert his dominance in his own territory.
"Speak respectfully? You expect an ant like you to receive any respect from me?!" Violet scoffed, her disdain palpable.
Lester hissed, "Hey!!!"
Violet snapped back, "Hey!!"
The two shouted simultaneously, and a dense, volatile burst of Spirit Energy erupted from them both, sending visible cracks sprawling across the solid hall walls.
"You arrogant child! Do you know you're in my Territory?!?" Lester hissed, two more green eyes flickering into existence an inch above his normal pair, signifying he was preparing for a serious fight.
"You dare speak disrespectfully to a Core Beauty under the Great Mother!!!" Violet countered, her dense energy condensing above her and manifesting two enormous, terrifying blood-red eyes—the undeniable visage of Lilith.
"Mother-in-law."
Lester's aggressive profound energy instantly shattered before the gaze of the crimson eyes. He dropped to his knees, sweat instantly slicking his pale forehead, his pride completely suppressed by terror.
"I am sorry for being disrespectful," he stammered, not daring to raise his head.
"I thought you were more stubborn, Lester," Lilith's voice, cold and ancient, sounded from Violet's lips.
"I am sorry, it won't happen again, Mother-in-law," Lester repeated quickly.
"I will forgive you today because of my daughter," Lilith stated. Her voice then took on a commanding tone:
"Sunny will arrive in the Upper World soon to get stronger. Make sure to place eyes in all corners of the Elf and Human Kingdoms. If you succeed and capture Sunny, do not kill him. Bring him to me."
Lester's eyes widened in shocked avarice at the next statement. "If you complete this task, I will reward you with a Primordial Stone."
The Primordial Stone—the greatest treasure in all the worlds, found only in the most dangerous Supreme World God Rank secret realms, guarded by Tenth Order powerhouses. For Lilith to possess one or more showed her terrifying influence.
He looked up at the two red eyes, his entire being alight with greed and purpose.
"I will do my best to complete this quest! If I can't face him directly, I will immediately send you his whereabouts."
Lilith stared at him for a few seconds; then, the eyes shattered into energy smoke, which flowed back into Violet's body.
Violet blinked, her eyes returning to their usual calm, cold red, and her overwhelming aura subsided.
"If you can't face him? Are you truly that weak?" She scoffed, turning toward the door. "You know what happens to those who fail Mother." With that final, chilling threat, she walked away, leaving Lester alone.
'This arrogant girl can move from the Supreme World to the Great World as easily as walking through a garden... What method is she using?' Lester thought, his teeth gritted in a blend of residual fear and burning humiliation. His primary objective had instantly shifted from retrieving the girls to capturing Sunny—and gaining the ultimate reward.
Sunny has initiated extreme combat training for Ellen and Jinx, and Lester has received a direct, tempting mission from Lilith.
