White Wolf shouted to surrender and left with the Sand Beast Gang. Now, just a few more exchanges with Zoe and she might be defeated. But to save energy for future battles, the fight was already decided, and both sides called a truce.

"Your ship still needs us to get it back." Zoe said angrily.

"Well, thank you. Sometimes I want to rely on someone too."

Damn!

The brown-haired young girl ground her teeth loudly.

That was——

Li Ang was about to speak from the stands but stopped.

Mort said, "You said that Platinum Ace was special; it seems you were right. The black aura that appeared with her punches is undoubtedly Dark Attribute Power."

Since Mort already noticed, Li Ang nodded.

So, an Evil Assassin it is, truly showing extraordinary qualities.

As Dark Attributes, they are used in a manner similar to the Four Major Elements, but the inherent "Upper Elements" are fundamentally different, summarized by scholars as "residue after the annihilation of all things," and they are the "forces that destroy worlds and bring death."

On the offensive side, the desolate spirituality in Dark Elements has a tendency to dissolve material structures.

Many Dark Elements also have polluting and corrupting properties, but just a moment ago, the power Andasu displayed didn't show such traits.

On the defensive side, the spirituality of Dark Elements tends to collapse in on itself, just like the end of all things, causing incoming forces to vanish into nowhere.

With just a hint of it used unconsciously by Andasu, much of Zoe's attack power was neutralized.

Mort said, "That's the immense potential of their sub-race, and she's even a standout among them, how do you manage to find people with such potential when selecting new members?"

Although their talents can bring positive benefits, you're not aware of how I personally have been facing all kinds of troubles and threats from these problem children on other levels.

Li Ang complained in his heart, but he couldn't say it aloud.

"Ah, speaking of which."

Li Ang interjected, "This time I helped you and Farina. Don't leave after this is over; there's more I need your help with."

He planned to extract the Demon Curse from Andasu's clan members with the help of these two people at the Excellence Realm, making it less likely for complications to arise.

"The loser's bracket final ended so fast!" Reed shouted, "Why does it feel like the two teams that lost yesterday have a different aura today?"

"Anyway, take a break. The final we've all been waiting for is about to begin! The winner will receive the huge cash prize, Transcendent Realm equipment, and the greatest prize pool ever, featuring various treasures added by the great Platinum King!

"Afterward, your favorite Platinum Racing will commence. Whether it's the Star Flower Travel Corps or The Sandbone Group, will they participate in the race with the champion prize—the four-grand airship 'The Howling Wolf'? Or is there someone waiting to buy it for heavy gold just to win the race? Let's wait until the final is over!

"The Star Flower Travel Corps ended the Platinum Ace's journey; they will battle The Sandbone Group and the Blood Eagle again. This time, can they turn the tables?"

After a break and some treatment, Zoe and her two companions faced the Blood Eagle again in the Flowing Silver Arena.

The Blood Eagle flapped his great cloak, transforming into eagle wings, and soared into the sky.

"He's trying to repeat yesterday's trick, follow the tactics Li Ang mentioned."

The young girls exchanged glances and nodded all at once. They immediately tapped into their magic power and simultaneously launched an attack.

On Dorothy's Flower Wings, the Star Crystal Flower Vine coiled around her Magic Staff, guiding the Golden Sand that flowed down from her body, spreading in the air like a mist painting the entire sky.

She did not directly collect this Golden Sand because its own Earth Attribute made it relatively heavy, and its movement speed wasn't as fast as the Blood Eagle's flight, making it easy for him to dodge.

The Golden Sand scattered in the sky; as the Blood Eagle flew through, he couldn't prevent the Gold Sand from falling on him.

"Trying to gradually accumulate Gold Sand on me while I fly?"

The Blood Eagle sneered, as an Evil Fire Skull appeared, a faint green flame washing over his entire body. He shook, and the Gold Sand fell off.

Dorothy squinted her eyes slightly; she hadn't intended to control him. The Blood Sand flowing over the surface of his twin blades couldn't be shaken off, seeing this situation, she felt relieved.

Zoe completely ignored the three elite melee fighters who rushed up to block her. She controlled the multiple ice blades of Extreme Cold Punishment from the Frost Heaven Giant Wolf with one hand, while condensing and throwing Ice Elemental Arrows with the other, slowing the Blood Eagle's assault on ALulu from a distance.

"Hah!"

Xiaoniu raised the Giant Hammer high, gathering power in her arms, and slammed the ground fiercely.

The full-force slam of the Power God Body made even the Monster Material on the surface of the Giant Hammer creak under the impact, as if shockwaves emanated from the point of impact. Originally well-maintained, the dueling arena's surface cracked in rings; the compacted earth and stone shattered and scattered, colliding with the legs of the three from The Sandbone Group.

Their charge immediately halted, and ALulu continued to strike with several consecutive hits, causing the ground to completely overturn as if plowed over. The incoming three couldn't even stand firmly, let alone cross this terrain.

Mort shook his head, "Is this child like the deputy commander of the Banquet of the Gods, an 'Earthshaker'?"

Earthshakers advance from Warriors who can sense the Earth Element and Mages who are proficient in the Earth Path into a special profession. They excel at altering terrain, creating gorges, and shifting rocks, and can even emit echo-like shockwaves.

"She's a Paladin."

"Paladin... I'm truly impressed."

The Blood Eagle circled high above, still having the energy to dodge Zoe's attacks, but finding it hard to seize an opportunity to strike at ALulu again.

The projectiles aimed at him suddenly decreased, and the Blood Eagle relaxed his frowned brows: Out of energy for attacks?

He made a turn, preparing to dive down.

However, he quickly realized that the attacks aimed at him had decreased because that young girl bypassed the destroyed terrain to attack his teammates.

The Blood Eagle charged toward the Tier Three shield-bearing young girl, the Evil Fire entwining, attempting to drag her skyward.

However, he found that the Azure Vine of another Half-Elf anchored the Ox Race young girl to the ground.

"Just a mere plant summon."

The Blood Eagle sneered, his great sword slashing swiftly.

The green and white Flower Vine seemed doomed to be cut completely with a single slash of the heavy and thick great sword.

The first green vine was severed, but the subsequent vines only had their outer layer split apart with a crackling sound, and the inside remained connected, quickly growing and healing.

"Hmm?"

The Blood Eagle realized something was off about the power of his twin blades. As he attempted to pull back the blade for another strike, he found his movements had slowed significantly.

Wait——

Glancing to the side, he finally noticed the blood that had been flowing along the twin blades was now golden and red. Unbeknownst to him, the gold sand integrated with the blades had absorbed the blood flowing from these sharp edges, preventing the formation of Pursuit Damage Blood Blades.

The gathered Gold Sand also made the blades heavier, with some sticking to the blade edges, dulling them.

He took a deep breath, flapped his wings fiercely, and charged toward the Half-Elf.

Seeing him swing his weapon, the delicate Half-Elf had a look of panic in her eyes, but the broad and reliable shield blocked his path.

"It's over!"

ALulu shouted, tightly pursing her petite lips. The top of the giant hammer she gripped with one hand shimmered with mysterious, pale golden light, flowing onto the young girl's body as if she were enveloped in a Tower of Light.

This was precisely the opening move for the Paladin's skill, Holy Power Slash.

Dorothy's Flower Wings scattered into numerous vines, weaving a vast web in the skies to halt the Blood Eagle's high-speed ascent.

The weighty hammer, encased in golden light, silently sliced through the air. Only upon contacting the Blood Eagle's crossed defensive blades did it unleash the booming sound of a Divine Energy bombardment.

Boom!!!

The Blood Eagle's wings faltered, feathers scattered in chaos. He was knocked backward, caught by the web of vines.

Even though it was a Tier Three Holy Power Slash, it only dispersed the Evil Fire enveloping him and didn't inflict further damage.

The Blood Eagle reverted his great cloak, landing onto the terrain overturned by ALulu into a mess of rock and soil. After finding his balance, he attempted to launch a close-range attack.

"You're out of tricks."

"We've still got more!"

Dorothy chuckled, gesturing as the Dragon Flower Vine coiled around a scorched Magic Staff.

This was the Dragon Sealing Staff she had acquired from the Feinat Clan's Treasure Vault with Li Ang.

The Power of Destruction surged within the red-black vines of the Dragon's Demon-Born Flower, gathering to the Magic Staff and its dragon-headed flower bud.

Zzzzz——!

Two black-red lightning bolts simultaneously shot out, their spreading arcs entwining and reinforcing each other, forming a thick bolt of lightning in the air.

The fierce attack struck the Blood Eagle squarely in the chest, blasting away both his wielded blades and the Evil Fire Skull, while the dispersing force whipped up the surrounding dirt and buried him as he fell.

"Wow, a grave built right on site!" Reed laughed loudly.

"Alright, prepare to move to the next phase." Li Ang turned and descended from the stands.
