Li Wei sat cross-legged on a rock, peacefully focusing on his Cultivation.

His Shadow Attendant stood guard nearby.

Not far away, Eiris was on an arena, using the Frozen Sound Transmission Technique to stay in contact with the others.

They were exchanging information.

Not long after Li Wei returned, Elfa had given up the mountaintop arena.

The challengers were endless, and even Elfa found it exhausting.

It was a thankless, grueling task.

It was better to accumulate some Points in other places first, then go capture the mountaintop arena and exchange them for the arena Space Barrier Items.

This item could guarantee six hours of holding the arena.

Its effect would be critical in the final moments.

For now, it wasn’t particularly necessary.

At this stage, the Space Spear was more useful than the arena Space Barrier Items.

After leaving the mountaintop, Elfa occupied an arena halfway up the mountain to earn Points.

Exchanging for the arena Space Barrier Items required three thousand Points.

On a regular arena, it would take a full fifty hours to accumulate three thousand Points.

And the entire competition was only three days long.

Holding a Middle Level Arena halfway up the mountain earned two Points per minute.

At that rate, it would only take twenty-five hours to gather three thousand Points.

The High Level Arena on the mountaintop earned three Points per minute.

It would take less than a day.

However, it was too difficult to hold the High Level Arena on the summit for long.

Elfa had only held it for less than an hour before retreating.

Eiris saw Li Wei emerge from his Cultivation and said, "Right now, the Elemental Tower has occupied six arenas and obtained four of the competition’s items."

"Besides the Space Spear and the Void Chain, the other two items are the Beast Taming Ring and the Elemental Contract."

"They’re items that can both counter and enhance Summoners and Elemental Mages."

"The Beast Taming Ring can control a Summoned Beast, but it can also increase the beast’s combat power."

"The Elemental Contract can make its user immune to a specific Element’s damage, while also greatly increasing the power of their corresponding Elemental Magic."

Hearing this, Li Wei smiled and said, "If that’s the case, then doesn’t the Void Chain also have some way of helping Space Mages?"

’So the items meant to counter them also come with a way to boost their strength. The Void Chain should have a similar effect, then.’

Eiris nodded. "That’s right. According to the latest battle report, a Space Mage used the Void Chain in combat to forcibly drag an opponent through a spatial rift and toss them outside the arena’s boundaries."

A look of surprise crossed Li Wei’s face. "The effect is that ridiculous?"

Normally, unless there was an overwhelming difference in strength, even a Space Mage couldn’t easily teleport an uncooperative Mage.

A Mage could interrupt a Space Teleportation Spell at any time.

But with the Void Chain, a Space Mage gained the ability to forcibly teleport a target.

In an arena battle, that was practically an ultimate weapon.

As long as you could teleport your opponent outside the arena, you could easily claim victory.

Due to the Rules, an opponent teleported out of the arena would be unable to challenge the current holder again for twelve hours.

It almost guaranteed a stable hold on the arena.

Eiris said, "Right now, the only way to deal with the Void Chain is to avoid being caught by it."

"There might be an item that counters the Void Chain, but none have been found yet."

Li Wei nodded. "It seems these competition items are indeed very important."

"If either of us were to face an opponent holding an Elemental Contract alone, it would be very tricky."

’Even though I have other combat methods besides Fire Element Magic... but if my Fire Element Magic were rendered useless, my overall strength would be reduced by eighty percent. Maybe even ninety percent.’

This didn’t mean Li Wei was weak.

It was simply because the Fire Element Magic he had mastered was overwhelmingly powerful.

Even with only ten percent of his strength, his combat power wouldn’t be much weaker than that of a normal Tier Four Mage.

Li Wei looked up. The sky had already grown dark.

He stood up and said, "Day is over. The night should be a bit quieter."

After the day’s fierce battles, everyone needed to rest and recover their strength.

The fighting would likely lessen significantly during the night.

With the day over, basically all the arenas on the isolated island had been found.

And each had found its owner.

Only one hidden arena had yet to be discovered.

Li Wei took some food from his Spatial Ring and handed it to Eiris.

Eiris said, "Thanks."

Li Wei ate as he scanned their surroundings. "Where do you think the hidden arena is?"

Eiris took a bite of jerky. "It’s probably not on the island, or it would’ve been found by now."

Li Wei nodded. "That’s what I was thinking."

He looked toward the strait between the two peaks.

Li Wei said, "I think it might be over there."

Eiris looked in the direction Li Wei indicated, and a thought struck her.

That location was the exact center of the entire isolated island Secret Realm.

Moreover, the stone bridge connecting to Twin Peaks Island had yet to be broken in any of the fighting, which was quite strange.

Either no one had gone over there, or there was something special about that place.

"ROAR!"

Suddenly, a roar, deep and resonant like the beat of a drum, echoed under the night sky.

Li Wei and Eiris exchanged a look, surprise showing in their eyes.

They both whipped their heads around to look in the direction of the sound.

Although the sound seemed to fill the entire island, Li Wei could clearly tell that it was coming from the strait between the two peaks.

Since arriving on the island, Li Wei had been nursing a question.

Before the competition, the Space Tower had stressed that there were extremely dangerous Ancient Fierce Beasts within the Secret Realm.

But after an entire day, Li Wei had yet to discover any of these "dangerous" Ancient Fierce Beasts.

The Magic Beasts on the island were not low Level, but for a group where even the weakest was a Tier Four Great Mage, they hardly counted as a danger.

And there had been no sign of any Ancient Fierce Beast.

’It seems the Ancient Fierce Beast hasn’t made its appearance yet. Nighttime must be its domain.’

Li Wei focused his gaze and saw a figure emerge from the strait.

A hideous Ancient Fierce Beast, over twenty meters tall, strode out of the sea.

The Ancient Fierce Beast was covered in long, thick, brown fur. It had the form of a Giant, with three-fingered hands and hooves like an ox.

Most striking of all, its head was a massive, curved beak.

Like the beak of a gigantic crow.

Seeing this, Eiris’s expression grew grim. "An Ancient Calamity Beast! It’s a Nitro!"

Li Wei asked, confused, "What is that?"

Eiris explained, "It’s a very special type of Ancient Fierce Beast. They are born for destruction. Disaster follows wherever they go, which is why they’re also known as Ancient Calamity Beasts."

"A Nitro is a long-haired Giant with a massive crow’s beak. Not even grass will grow where it walks."

Li Wei watched the Ancient Calamity Beast from afar, mentally assessing the Nitro’s strength.

THUD!

The Ancient Calamity Beast stepped ashore and lumbered toward the nearest forest.

Sensing the approaching danger, the Magic Beasts and other animals in the woods fled in a mad panic.

The Nitro ignored the smaller animals scurrying on the ground, crushing a Tier Three Magical Beast underfoot with a single step.

Then, it headed toward the nearest humans.
