Two...

Five...

Eight…

As time passed, everyone who noticed the changes in the Spirit War God Rankings could no longer take their eyes off of it.

Along the coastal edge of Betula Continent.

"Legislator Lor has now killed eight fourth-tier Demons, and his rank on the War God Rankings has climbed to 255," exclaimed an excited Legion Wizard.

"Hahaha, Legislator Lor is mighty!"

"Long live Legislator Lor!"

"Legislator Lor is truly powerful."

"Woo woo woo, I finally survived."

On the spaceships, some people cheered, while others cried out in relief, as decades of suppressed emotions exploded all at once.

Whether single-element mages, multi-element mages, or bloodline wizards, there was no exception.

Everyone focused on that dazzling name on the War God Rankings, because of him, they no longer had to sacrifice lives to fend off the fourth-tier Demons' invasion.

Even the Legion Commanders of various single-element legions found their eyes welling up at this sight.

Since the war began, they had sacrificed nearly a quarter of their legion members to prevent fourth-tier Demons from wreaking havoc on the continent.

In more tragic cases, entire legions were wiped out just to hold back the attacks of the fourth-tier Demons.

As for killing the fourth-tier Demons...

The Legion Commanders all knew that it was impossible.

But now?

It had only been twenty-plus minutes, and that Legislator Lor, who had risen from disaster, had directly killed six fourth-tier Demons, allowing everyone to see the dawn of victory.

"Haha, yes, long live Legislator Lor!" A Legion Commander couldn't help but shout along with the echoing sound of spiritual power resonating in the legion.

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

With the Legion Commander speaking out, the other wizards grew even more excited, with even less sobbing as they all joined in the cries of victory.

Betula Continent's outskirts turned into a sea of joy.

...

In the center of Betula Continent, outside the Green Wizard Tower.

"Long live Legislator Lor!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

The scene here was almost identical to the outskirts of the continent, with everyone extremely excited.

Though these people hadn't gone to the continent's outskirts, many had relatives and friends there, fighting off the fourth-tier Demons' attacks.

Previously, every day they lived in fear, dreading the news of their loved ones' deaths.

But now, as Lor killed the fourth-tier Demons one by one, they were completely relieved of their worries.

Inside the Wizard Tower.

"Legislator Lor, with his own strength, has turned the tide of the battlefield on Betula Continent. I should do something in return," Ron was extremely moved as he watched Lor's jumping rank in his Sea of Consciousness.

He spread his spiritual power, observing the jubilant scene outside the Wizard Tower, but did not join in.

Instead, he took out the Continent Communication Device and crafted a message to all wizards who could receive it.

The message read:

[By order of the current Speaker of Betula Continent: From today onward, November 12th of each year will be established as Demon-Slaying Day, in honor of Legislator Lor's achievements.]

Once the message was sent, it quickly circulated throughout Betula Continent.

"Demon-Slaying!"

"Demon-Slaying!"

"Demon-Slaying!"

From that moment on, the words 'Demon-Slaying' echoed in every Wizard Tower and every Giant City affiliated with a Wizard Tower.

...

Cooper Wizard Tower, 95th floor.

"Demon-Slaying Day... Legislator Lor is truly remarkable!" Bruno was incredibly excited as he read the announcement Ron had sent out.

Back when he first met Legislator Lor, Lor had just broken through to a second-ring Wizard.

In merely a few decades, Legislator Lor could now so easily kill fourth-tier Demons.

The key thing is, he had previously done a favor for Legislator Lor!

This favor, he definitely would not cash in on.

As long as people knew he had this connection with Legislator Lor, his life would be much more comfortable.

And the stronger Legislator Lor became, the more comfortable his life would be.

...

Cooper Wizard Tower, 57th floor.

"Lor..." Agular looked at the announcement coming through the Continent Communication Device, feeling exceptionally proud.

He never imagined that the apprentice he had taken in all those years ago would become so dazzling in just a few decades.

"Perhaps I should thank Mala... and Gu Lei," Agular grinned, smiling silently.

...

"Now that Lor has reached this point, I must work even harder," Kateya felt a sense of urgency as she read the announcement, though she was happy.

She needn't fear being abandoned for she had known Lor from the beginning.

But if she didn't work hard, she wouldn't be able to maintain her position as the top assistant in the future.

As Lor's talent unfolded, Kateya gradually began to see Legislator Amy Owen as her goal.

She wanted to become Lor's top assistant, and also an Alliance Legislator.

Assistant first, Legislator second.

...

Ten...

Twelve...

Milton Continent, Central Wizard Tower, 99th floor.

"Amy, his ranking is going to surpass yours," Cody teased Amy, who was still watching the mirror screen nearby.

"As someone whose talent rivals that of Speaker Francis, surpassing me is quite normal," Amy said calmly.

"Oh, I see." Cody raised an eyebrow, continuing to tease, "He's single-handedly turned the entire situation on Betula Continent and looks set to handle the fourth-tier Demons elsewhere as well."

"That's only natural!" Amy said, "Just like when Speaker Francis single-handedly turned the tide on the Divine Battlefield."

"He's only a Third Ring now!" Cody persisted, unwilling to give up.

Truth be told, he wanted to bring up Francis for a comparison, but remembering this woman's bad temper, he suppressed the urge.

"A genius should not be judged by common sense."

A small smile appeared on Amy's lips as she watched Lor slay yet another Demon in the mirror screen, "He's walking the same path that Speaker Francis once walked, and I sincerely hope he succeeds."

...

Near the sea of Betula Continent.

"Hoo——"

A reddish-gold Meteor descended, blasting a badly damaged Blood Demon into pieces.

"Swoosh——"

Lor used Space Jumping Witchcraft, skillfully arriving at the place where the Blood Demon had fallen and collected some precious materials.

"Fifteen solitary Demons have been cleared. I wonder what my current rank is on the War God Rankings?" Having stored the materials, Lor took out a Magic Crystal to recover Elemental Energy and glanced at the War God Rankings.

[Rank: 1

Name: Domenico Rici

Merit: 9.236 billion 1,725

...

[Rank: 166

Name: Lor Rox

Merit: 1.728 billion 5,271

...

[Rank: 168

Name: Amy Owen

Merit: 1.667 billion 2,113

"One hundred sixty-six, not bad."

Lor chuckled, but his expression soon turned serious, "The next challenge of dealing with groups of fourth-tier Demons won't be as easy as this."
