It was different from what Joelson had expected.

The battle on the dueling platform lasted for a very long time before the victor was decided.

This was not because the ten ringmasters were too weak. On the contrary, the strength of the ten ringmasters was enough to crush the opponent.

The result was just as Toby had expected. The ten ringmasters who were originally standing on the dueling platform all obtained victory.

Moreover, it was an extremely easy victory. It could be said that they had defeated the challenger without using much strength.

The ten ringmasters did not use all of their strength to kill the challenger in an instant. Instead, they used up the strength of the challenger bit by bit until the challenger lost his fighting strength in the end.

This caused the battle on the dueling platform to be like the ringmasters playing with the challenger.

Seeing this scene, Joelson couldn't help but ask Toby in puzzlement, "What's going on?"

Toby looked at the dueling platform and said, "The challengers in front can only be considered as warm-ups. The challengers who have a real chance of defeating them will appear at the end. Right now, they are just unwilling to reveal their trump cards, and they don't want to waste too much strength."

"Since there are only three keys to the legacy, even if they enter the sovereign's tomb, given their power, there's no way they would be able to seize the key and acquire the legacy. Why are there so many people who want to enter the sovereign's tomb?"

"Because it's the sovereign's tomb." Hearing Joelson's question, Toby replied, "Even if they can't acquire the final sovereign's legacy, you have to know that it was the tomb of the previous God of Slaughter! Who knows how many benefits there are inside! Being able to obtain the legacy of a highgod is enough to benefit them for the rest of their lives!"

Joelson nodded slightly. He hadn't thought of this.

But it was just as Toby had said. This was, after all, the tomb of a sovereign.

To the vast majority of people, even if they weren't able to obtain the final legacy, as long as they were able to enter, there would be countless benefits.

"If you and Edessa wish to enter the sovereign's tomb, do you need to participate in the competition?"

Joelson suddenly asked.

The two of them had given him the key. Even if they weren't able to obtain the sovereign's legacy, he still wanted the two of them to enter the sovereign's tomb and search for the good fortune they would obtain.

Toby sighed, shaking his head, he said, "This time, the chance to enter the sovereign's tomb has already been controlled by the Slaughter Divine Kingdom and the four great empires. My clan has no choice but to participate in the trials. However, with Edessa and my strength, even if we were to go up, we wouldn't be able to win ten challenges."

After that, Toby returned to his usual mood, as if he hadn't been affected at all.

Joelson nodded slightly and didn't say anything else.

However, his gaze towards the dueling platform began to flicker, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The challenges on the dueling platform continued, and the challengers who went up to challenge the ringmaster became stronger and stronger.

As the challengers became stronger and stronger, the arena lords began to reveal their true strength and trump cards. Not only did the speed of winning not slow down, but it also became faster and faster.

Up until now, none of the ten arena lords who had stood on the dueling platform from the beginning had been defeated.

Seeing this scene, Toby said, "Their true strength and trump cards have been revealed. The challengers who have the true strength to defeat them are also about to go up."

Just as Toby finished speaking, a series of surprised cries rang out from the surrounding crowd.

Edessa added from the side, "He's already on stage."

Joelson's gaze turned towards the dueling platform.

He saw a man dressed in luxurious black armor, with a scar on his face that extended from his forehead to the corner of his mouth, step onto the dueling platform with a longsword in his hand.

He was shockingly at the peak of the demigod level, and his aura was already close to that of a god!

"Ripper." Toby's face was rather ugly as he said in a low voice, "This fellow will most likely be able to stand at the very end of the dueling platform!"

The nearby Edessa had an ugly look on her face as well, and her eyes revealed an angry look.

Joelson's face was calm. He asked, "What sort of hatred does he have with you?"

"How do you know?" Toby was rather surprised, but he still said, "This damned fellow's power is far inferior to mine!"

Toby's gaze was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten years ago, in a trial plane, I had already seized the final reward, but I had used up most of my arcane power. When I left, I was ambushed by the Ripper, and the final reward was snatched away by him. I was also heavily injured by him. If it weren't for him, I would have already advanced to the god level!"

Edessa also said angrily, "Later on, because this fellow took away the rewards, he rose to the peak of the demigod level. He was recruited by the Orenza Empire, and the clan was unable to find trouble with him!"

"His talent is really bad. It's been ten years, but he still hasn't broken through."

Joelson's gaze turned to the Ripper, who was suppressing his opponent on the dueling platform, as he muttered to himself.

The nearby Toby and Edith instantly revealed looks of disbelief, their hearts filled with astonishment.

If the Ripper were to break through again, he would be at the god level.

It must be known that for most people, it was impossible to break through to the god level without tens of thousands of years of accumulation!

Even geniuses would need at least five thousand to ten thousand years to successfully break through to the god level.

However, when they thought about how freakishly strong Joelson was, the two quickly regained their calm.

Perhaps for Joelson, breaking through to become a god in ten years really was very easy?

The battle on the dueling platform was still ongoing. It was still a one-sided battle.

However, this time, the one being suppressed was the original arena lord.

The arena lord was casually attacked by the Ripper. He didn't even have the power to fight back. He could only passively defend and block.

Not long after, the arena lord couldn't resist anymore.

The arena lord gave up all his defense and swung his sword at the Ripper. The law and profound meanings on his sword twined, leaving a small black mark in the air.

The Ripper looked at the arena lord who was swinging his sword at him. His face didn't change at all. His eyes were calm.

He held his sword tightly with both hands and slashed down fiercely, aiming at the long sword the arena lord was swinging.

Clang!

When the longswords collided, a loud metallic sound rang out.

The sound quickly spread throughout the plaza.

Layers of shock waves appeared on the dueling platform, preventing the audience from seeing the situation on the stage clearly.

Even the magic array on the dueling platform began to tremble violently. In fact, a small crack even appeared on the array!

The resulting shockwave created a hurricane in the plaza. The spectators could not help but cover their eyes.

The weaker divine's domain experts were sent flying out of the plaza by the hurricane.

When the shockwave dissipated, everyone could clearly see the situation on the dueling platform.

The final victor was...

"Ripper!"

Waves of cheers rang out in the plaza. It was as if they were the ones who had won.
