<h4>Chapter 314: Sixth Round-1</h4>


    After Athan broke free from the illusion, He stayed silent and started meditation.


    He unfurled the scroll of four stances of destruction inside his void region and startedprehending it while also infusing chaos force inside the essence core of lightning dust to progress in it.


    He still had to fill up the forty percent of his essence core before he saturates it. After that, he will have toprehend the fourth level of lightning dust to breakthrough.


    ...


    Two hours passed, and none of thepetitors broke free from the illusion yet.


    .


    .


    After another two hours, Someone finally broke free from the illusion. The one who broke free from the illusion was a girl. She had long white reindeer-like horns with grey patterns. She had long peach-colored hair and smooth white skin. Unlike other participants, She looked wless without any kind of injuries on her. Her dress was woven with multiple thin cloths with beautiful patterns.


    Her face was beautiful, with long white eyshes with the same color as her horns. Her body was shapely and thin. She exuded a calm and peaceful aura around her, but her eyes were currently red, and her face showed exhaustion.


    After taking a few deep breaths, She sat down in meditation.


    .


    .


    After another hour, Two more people broke free from the illusion one by one.


    After this, The chain started aspetitors started to wake up after every few minutes.


    Athan also opened his eyes to show that he broke free in the middle and finally sat down crossed-legged.


    When the thirtypetitors broke free, the chaotic illusion formation was stopped by Madam Gishi, and the remaining twentypetitors woke up from the illusion.


    The middle-aged man who oversaw thepetition on the ground arrived and spoke in a loud voice after separating the twentypetitors whose journey ended in the top 50.


    " The twenty of you will receive ten thousand low-grade chaos stones each and two order methods of your choices. You can pick any order methods of 5-star and below from the library we have prepared. "


    Hearing this, The spectators cheered, and the twentypetitors were also happy. Of course, not all were happy, as some of them were frustrated that they couldn''t go beyond the top 50.


    The middle-aged man then waved his right hand as the twentypetitors were absorbed in the ground as the prepared library was also there.


    " Now, the thirty of you. Before proceeding to the next round, Let me inform you of something important. After thispetition is over, The thirty of you will travel to Hongara Region for the Penta Region Tournament. If you don''t want to go there, then you can quit right now and get the reward of the top 30 before joining the spectators. "


    One of thepetitors raised his hand and asked with a doubt, " What will happen if someone in top 10 or top 3 decided to not participate in the Penta Region Tournament? "


    The middle-aged man nced at the participant before nodding his head with a faint smile, " If they rejected their entry in the Penta Region Tournament aftering in the top 10 or top 3, then their rewards will be reduced by 90%. So, If you are not nning to participate in the tournament, its better to quit now and get the full reward of top 30. "


    After saying this, The man swept his eyes across all of the participants.


    Some of the participants frowned.


    Athan was also surprised, but upon thinking about it, This arrangement made sense.


    There should be some kind of benefits in the Penta region tournament. The rewards they get in the top 10, and further should help them get stronger so they can perform better in the Penta region tournament.


    But suppose somepetitors here don''t n to participate in the tournament. In that case, the rewards of the top 10 and further can be considered wasted in the eyes of those who arranged this whole thing.


    After reaching this conclusion, Athan felt that the rewards of the top ten and further should be way better than the top 30 rewards.


    '' If that''s really the case, then there should be a bigger purpose behind this whole penta region tournament. ''


    Athan nced at others while thinking about it and saw that none of thepetitors were ready to quit here.


    The middle-man once again asked if anyone wants to quit now. After getting no repose as none of thepetitors wanted to quit, He smiled and nodded, " Good. Now let''s start the sixth round. "


    After saying that, The middle-aged man waved his right hand as changes started to happen on thepetition ground.


    A big square tform with robust white tiles appeared from the ground.


    Along with that, Thirty pirs appeared around the giant square tform. Each pir had a number written over its body that was visible to everyone.


    After doing this, The middle-aged man arranged his tie and smiled, " We have recorded the timing of all those who broke free from the illusion. ording to that, We have created temporary ranks, and now, I will call out the names from rank 1 to rank 30. "


    The middle-aged man then took out a scroll and unfurled it before speaking, " Rank one stands on the rank one pir and rank two stands on the rank two pir, and just like that, stand on the pir as I call out names, got it? "


    Thepetitors nodded as the middle-aged man called out the first name.


    " Rank.1 Athan Void. "


    Everyone was surprised to hear the unfamiliar name as people knew the names of famous contenders in thispetition, and Athan Void was not one of them.


    The spectators started to talk about it.


    " Who is this Athan Void? "


    " I don''t know. But there were only two people who performed very well and are unnamed. "


    Athan himself was startled to hear his name. He thought that since he opened his eyes halfway, He would be ranked in the middle but didn''t expect that he would be discovered, '' Looks like the one who put us in the illusion can find out the person who break free from the illusion along with the timing of when the person broke free. ''


    He didn''t waste time and started walking towards the rank one pir before jumping on it.


    The middle-aged man nodded with a smile before he called out the second name.


    " Sen Theorus. "


    Hearing the name, The spectators went wild as if this Sen Theorus was very famous.


    The beautiful girl with white reindeer-like horns calmly took a step forward, but with that step, she actually started to float as her dress fluttered with her peach-colored hair before she stood on the rank two-pir.


    After standing there, She looked at Athan with a curious expression and thought, '' Athan Void? Never heard of such a name. ''


    Athan felt the gaze on him and looked at her.


    Previously, Her eyes were slightly red after breaking free from the illusion, but now they were back to normal. Her eyes looked like a starry space with a vertical blue iris. They seemed highly captivating and beautiful.


    Seeing Athan looking at her too, Sen nodded with a smile. Her smile was filled with natural confidence.


    Athan also nodded inly in response before turning away his face and closing his eyes to meditate.


    The middle-aged man continued to call out the subsequent names of thepetitors.
