The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 148: Poor Trial's efforts to make it fair and square, Failed.

When the ten minutes were up, Everyone disappeared and appeared at different places.

When Athan saw his opponent, He was dumbfounded.

" Hahaha, This is such a coincidence. " Mike laughed seeing Athan in front of him.

They were in a dried forest with close to zero greenery.

Athan's Poison Spider and Mike's Flaming Snake were already glaring at each other.

" Let's start. Our pets seem like if we didn't give any command soon, they would start fighting on their own. "

Athan issued command from his mind and told the spider to go on top of a tree on the left side.

Mike grinned and said, " Scale shot."

The snake shot the flaming scales towards the spider and even destroyed the dried tree it stood on.

The spider jumped into another dried tree, but Mike was already aiming at that tree as fire released from the snake's mouth.

The spider shot its web thread towards another tree and dodged before shooting its web at the snake.

But the web didn't work on the flaming snake because of fire.

Seeing this, Athan smiled wryly because the flaming snake was a nemesis to his poison spider due to its fire element.

Both of them fought, and Athan managed to use poisoned fang skill on the snake after getting close to it, and even though it managed to injure the snake, his spider gave away first and died.

After the fight was over, Mike received [ 1 win, 0 loss ] while Athan received [ 0 wins, 1 loss ] status.

They disappeared from that place and reappeared at the place where they previously were.

Tiana and others were already there.

Athan's spider once again appeared from white sparks.

[ The next round will start in 5 minutes. ]

When they asked each other's results, they were dumbfounded at Athan and Mike's coincidence, and it turned out that everyone won their first match except Athan.

"Ahem...I have something serious to announce. " Athan said with a serious face.

Everyone paid attention as he continued, " When we were sent to different locations to fight, I couldn't sense my soul threads in you, which means that we were all transported to completely different spaces to fight against our opponents. So I have decided that If you all lose two times, you won't be allowed to participate further and stay in the special space. "

Everyone nodded and agreed because the rules stated that if you lose three times, you will die. They were fortunate to have the special space to quit the trial halfway, unlike other trialists.

" What about you, Brother Athan? "

Hearing Qerin's question, Athan said while shaking his head, " I don't know. Although I am sure that nothing will happen to me as long as I go inside the special space after losing my 3rd match, I won't take that risk. " He paused here and smiled before continuing, " Anyway, I have an idea. "

He took others inside the special space, and their pets also appeared there.

Seeing this, Athan laughed and said, " Great. Now let's do this. "

He then told everyone about his plan.

...

Before the five minutes were up, Everyone was barely finished with their preparation and went out, and they soon disappeared after coming out.

After four-five minutes, everyone appeared once again with smiles on their faces.

Everyone won their matches, and that too without struggle.

The reason was obvious when one looked at their pets.

" hahaha, bro, Your idea is excellent, and it's working very well. "

Mike's flaming snake had wings and one more layer of armor.

Athan's Poison Spider also wore armor and two small cannons on its back.

Avelia's Greyscale tiger was even more ferocious with its dark silver armor on its body, which could rebound attacks and release sound shockwaves when enemy attacks hit the armor.

Qerin's Primape Fighter had ferocious full body armor and dark brown gauntlets on its hands.

Finally, Tiana's Synth Bat was smaller in body size but had a 3-meter wingspan. So she covered it in armor that suits its body, and there were additional layers of red lightning wings on it that could attack enemies.

Tiana chuckled and said, " The trial tried its best to adjust and make it fair, but unfortunately, it failed. "

Inside the special space, They used their elemental energies and genesis energies to create additional gadgets on their pets, and they were practically invincible against other trialist's pets.

" At first, I thought we might not win many rewards in this trial, but I guess we will all win 9 matches each and win the grand prize. " Mike spoke with a grin.

" Let's hope this trial doesn't make any more arrangements. Although I am sure it will not make it since our armors and gadgets are made from origin energy. ", said Avelia.

Athan smiled while nodding his head, " Yep. I also think there won't be a problem on that part since our pets are also using origin energy. It should be the same thing as what happened in the Trial of Ascendancy. "

Avelia nodded, " Yep. "

They waited for the next round to start, and soon they also won their 3rd match, which granted them a new pet and an evolution stone.

Though Athan didn't receive any since his score was [ 2 wins, 1 loss ]

The new pet they got was already at Grade 2, but when they tried to use evolution stone on their grade 2 pets, it didn't work.

" Looks like we can only use this evolution stone on our first pet. " Saying this, Avelia used her evolution stone on Greyscale tiger, and three options appeared in front of Avelia.

[ Evolution Path ]

-Dark Tiger

-Holy Tiger

-Aerial Tiger

There were no in-depth details, but there was no need since it was obvious from the evolution path's names.

" I'll go with Aerial Tiger since there's no need for additional elements when It already has offensive armor. "

Avelia chose Aerial Tiger, and two wings sprouted on each of its sides, breaking the armor in the process.

[ Grade 2, Aerial Greyscale Tiger ]

-Element: none

-Skills: Aeriel Strike, Flying Dash, Extending Enhanced Claws.

" Ouch, I need to make the armor once again. "

Athan sent her inside the special space, where she started to create armor once again.
