Armipotent

Chapter 1547  Best of The Best

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Tang Shaoyang swung his new weapon into the room, careful enough not to destroy anything. He was satisfied with his new weapon. As if the weapon was made for him. That was how he felt when he swung the battle axe.

After a few more swings, he put the battle axe into his inventory. There was a scroll on the table, but he did not see the vial for the bloodline. He raised his eyebrow, thinking the System scammed him until he took the scroll.

————————

[Teleportation Scroll]

Bloodline: Cosmos Serpent

Information: Tear the scroll to proceed with the bloodline inheritance ritual.

————————

It was different from the common bloodline reward where they received a vial with red liquid. The only way to obtain a full transformation skill was through the bloodline inheritance ritual. The same thing he did with Rumru back then. Back then he did not know how significant the ritual was until he found out the people who inherited the bloodline through blood essence did not get the True Transformation skill.

The reward was not a joke, at all. He kept the scroll in his inventory. That bloodline for his people, someone he trusted. If one person could have more than one bloodline, then he might take this one as well. He did not know how powerful this Cosmos Serpent was, but he did not want to throw away the bloodline that could get stronger.

He learned Avynʼs Ethereal Frost, and his next target would be Vandir and Zaraʼs Death Authority.

Tang Shaoyang rubbed his chin as if he had never integrated with Vandir before. He wondered what it felt like to integrate with a skeleton. The first time he integrated with a demon spirit, he became half-demon. Would he turn into a skeleton by integrating with a skeleton?

ʼDo you want to try it right now?ʼ Not just Tang Shaoyang, but Vandir was also curious how it would turn out.

[The stage 2 Trial of God will start soon! Be ready!]

[Stage 2: Best of the Best!]

[566 participants pass the first stage and only the best of 566 participants will pass to the last stage!]

[Form a team of five on your own and challenge the other teams for a duel. Twenty teams with the most wins will advance to stage 3!]

[Rule: 1. You canʼt challenge the same team twice.]

[2. The challenged team will have the right to decide the format for the duel.]

[3. A team will win if the opponent is killed or surrendered!]

[4. If a member of a team died, they still can continue to participate in the trial.]

[5. A team canʼt decline a challenge but a team can surrender.]

[Duel format: 1. Duel (1v1) 2. Battle Royal 3. Last Man Standing.]

[Information: There will be no reward for first place in this stage, but there will be a reward for first place in stage 3!]

[Information: You can invite the other participants to form a team! The lounge is also open to meet with the other participants.]

Tang Shaoyang did not like the format for stage 2 because it was a team trial. That meant he must work together with the people he did not know. He preferred to work alone rather than working together with a group of strangers.

But it made sense for it to be a team duel instead of an individual duel for this kind of trial. With 566 participants, the stage 2 trial would take longer to finish as a person could challenge 555 people to a duel. If it was a team of five, there would be 113 teams and fewer duels.

”But wait a minute… Itʼs 566 people… Thereʼs one surplus, can I form a team with just me?”

[You canʼt form a one-man team! There will be an exception for one team to have six members!]

He was disappointed because he did not really need a team as he had his own team. His spirits were his team, and they were more than enough to pass him to the next stage.

”So, who should I choose to be on my team?” Right after he said that his head was buzzing with a lot of notifications. It was an invitation for him to form a team.

”Thatʼs right. I donʼt need to form a team. I just need to wait for their invitation,” He realized that he might be a hot item for the other participants. They would want him in their team so they could pass to the next stage. He was a free pass for them. Although it was narcissistic from him, it happened.

Tang Shaoyang rubbed his chin, sorting out the invitation. He was looking for someone he knew, and that might be better to join them than joining a complete stranger.

”But I barely talk with any people…” He just remembered that he interacted with less than ten participants. He remembered the mage and the elf he met in the Arena. Then the remaining talk was not really a conversation. He was basically a loner.

After sorting out the invitation, he found four familiar names: Clement Salle the mage he met in the Arena, Agnes Neteri Iosava the same elf he met in the Arena, Ian Carmen Lorentia, and Novoa Valentine.

He was familiar with Ian Carmen Lorentia and Novoa Valentine because he saw their names often in the ranking list. Honestly, he was surprised the two invited him to join them.

Clement Salle put his team members in the invitation. The two people who were at the party with him in calamity hunting were Jules Asanda and Negasu. Agnes also put a name on her team as well, Castor Bach Justesen. It was another familiar name because he captured Castor once.

With a little hesitation, he accepted Agnesʼ invitation. He knew them more than Clement Salleʼs team. Just for that reason, he chose to accept Agnesʼ invitation.

Agnes sent him a message as soon as he accepted the invitation. There was a message feature for the team. She told him to meet her at the lounge to discuss the remaining two members of their team.

He was about to ask where this lounge was until he received a message from the System.

[Participant Tang Shaoyang, Please come to Pet Space to calm your pets. I have sent someone to your room, and she will guide you to the Pet Space.]

Tang Shaoyang got up from the couch, looking for the door. The first door he opened was for his bedroom. Then he ran to another door which was the exit, and a woman with black hair was waiting for him. He recognized the woman, one of the Administrators who came in the second reinforcement.

”Follow me!” She turned around and said in a flat tone.

He forgot about Ophelius and Ophelia if not for the message. Not realizing the two were not by his side. He followed the woman and found the sign for the lounge. There was no need to ask Agnes where this lounge was.

Observing the surroundings, he was in a massive building. He could tell how big the building was because the distance between his room and the room on the opposite side was more than a hundred meters. To his right was the room and to his left was the glass rail.

He stepped to the glass rail and looked down. He was on the fifth floor, and there was a massive arena on the first floor. The arena must be the place for the duel. That was it, aside from how big the building was, there was nothing special.

Tang Shaoyang followed the woman into the elevator, and she pressed U2 for the floor below the first floor. There were no words exchanged between them until he arrived at the place called Pet Space.

The moment he stepped out of the elevator, he heard the bumping sound as the ground vibrated slightly. He turned toward the noise and saw the two dragons bombarding the glass with their fire. The glass started to crack, and it was just a matter of time until it broke. But it was commendable for the quality of the glass as it managed to hold many attacks from two Unique Rank Calamity.

The twins stopped attacking the glass at the sight of him. The two came closer to the glass and started complaining through telepathy. They complained the space was too small for them, and they asked to meet him as well.

”If they break the barrier before you come, then we have no choice but to kill them!” The man who opened the door for the twinsʼ confinement said as he opened the door to confinement.

Tang Shaoyang glanced at the man. The man was wearing the same white armor as the woman, ”If I have to say, thatʼs a poor decision from you. There was a man who said the same thing. But the same man died two days ago. I think you know who that man is.”

He shrugged and did not wait to see the manʼs reaction, entering the confinement, ”Thatʼs your fault. If you are in your human form, they will teleport you two to my room instead of this confinement. Get to your human form or get smaller, or else you two will stay here.”

Even though he said the building was massive, it was still small for the twinsʼ true form. The two opted to be a smaller version of themselves.

”No No No… Get smaller until you can stay on shoulders,” They were about the SUV size, and it was still too big.

The twins did not like the idea of becoming so small to fit on his shoulders. They chose to turn to their human form instead.
