On the last day of the trial.
Finally, someone from the Dark Church appeared at the entrance of the Magical Beast Forest.
A tier 7 knight crawled out of the Magical Beast Forest in fear. He looked extremely miserable.
His face was filled with fear, shock, and panic.
When he saw Grover and Ulysses' figures, his eyes lit up with joy.
"Sir! Sir!"
The tier 7 knight fell at their feet in a panic. He was so excited that he was about to cry.
"I've finally seen you guys!"
As he spoke, he would look back from time to time. It seemed like there was a terrifying monster chasing after him.
Grover stepped on the knight's face and said fiercely, "Where are the others? Why hasn't Ernesto come out yet?"
The tier 7 knight's face showed a hint of fear and fear. He said with a trembling voice, "They are all dead! Lord Ernesto is also dead!"
"What?!"
Grover's voice was so sharp that it was strange.
"Dead?!"
"How can he be dead?! Ernesto has... who can kill him?!"
Grover stared at the tier 7 knight; his face full of malevolence.
"Unless that idiot provoked more than two saint-tier magical beasts at the same time!"
The tier 7 knight trembled violently and stammered, "I don't know, I don't know."
While speaking, he kept looking at the two empires.
Grover's eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, and he said coldly, "Then where's your magical beast core?!"
The tier 7 knight was stunned. He hurriedly nodded and took out a shriveled bag from his bosom.
He poured out a few fifth-tier magic beast essence crystals and the only sixth-tier one.
"All... all of them are here."
The tier 7 knight trembled. He did not dare to look at Grover's eyes. He said carefully, "Lord Ulysses said that we don't need to hunt magic beasts. We just need to go all out to kill other trial-takers."
Grover was extremely furious. Instead, he started laughing, his laughter shrill.
"Is that so?"
Ulysses walked up with a calm expression and said, "That's right, I did say that. Unfortunately, you didn't do anything."
Ulysses shook his head and said, "Worthless trash."
After saying that, he casually stretched out his palm, and powerful magic power threw the tier 7 knight into the air, throwing him backwards.
He let out a desperate scream.
Ulysses' poisonous dragon caught the tier 7 knight and swallowed him down, letting out a few satisfied growls.
It was cold and merciless.
This cruel method made the faces of the trial-takers of the two empires pale.
Ulysses' face was no longer smiling. It was terrifyingly gloomy.
On the other hand, Archbishop Saloyan's face, which was full of wrinkles, was smiling more and more widely.
He did not know what had happened to the Dark Church, but...
Since the Dark Church had been eliminated early, the final winner would definitely be the Church of Light.
Thinking about the bet with Ulysses, he was about to obtain the wings of light.
Saloyan's mood was very wonderful.
When Louis' figure appeared at the entrance of the magical beast forest, Saloyan's mood was even more relaxed!
Praise the God of Light!
Louis was as arrogant and cold as usual.
The holy sons of the Church of Light who were qualified to receive divine power from the heavens would gradually become like gods, and the feelings of humans would slowly disappear.
"Louis!"
Saloyan spread his arms and smiled as he welcomed Louis' return.
"Your Eminence."
"Let them see your glorious battle results."
Saloyan looked at Louis with anticipation.
Louis' silver-gray eyes flashed with humiliation and some hesitation.
The other knights and priests of the Church of Light also lowered their heads, as if they did not have the courage to face Archbishop Saloyan.
"Me."
Louis said honestly, "I did not bring out any magic beast essence crystals."
Saloyan's smile froze on his face. He blinked his eyes and quickly revealed a look of understanding.
"I know."
Saloyan looked in the direction of the cult of shadows like he was showing off. He said with a smile, "Then throw out those dirty heads."
Saloyan was certain that Louis had spent all his energy on hunting the trial-takers of the cult of Shadows. The tragic state of the cult of Shadows was just enough to prove this point.
Saint-level?
Hehe, Louis could also erupt with the strength of a saint-level!
Louis was silent. He raised his hand and threw out a few human heads covered in blood.
He was also wearing a magical item that was similar to an interspatial ring.
"Three seventh-level heads. Haha, that's 300 points. What else?" Saloyan asked in anticipation.
Louis shook his head and said, "That's all."
Louis did not take the initiative to chase after the Dark Church's trial-takers. These human heads were killed along the way.
He had obtained quite a number of magical beast essence crystals, but...
"Look, there are people coming out again!"
Someone from the two empires cried out in surprise.
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads.
They just happened to see a trial-taker from the Dark Church dressed up as he ran out of the forest with a face full of fear.
He had already run out of the magical beast forest. When he saw the figures of Ulysses and Grover, his despairing eyes revealed a glimmer of hope.
Just as he was about to call for help, an extremely terrifying pillar of fire shot out from the forest.
His entire body was sent flying by the huge impact. Flames enveloped him.
He rolled in mid-air and screamed miserably. When he fell, he was only left with a charred corpse.
Everyone was stunned.
A trial-taker from the Cult of Shadows was killed in front of their eyes in such a violent manner?!
Grover was so angry that his entire face was distorted. The aura of a saint-level was like a surging tide.
Following that, a handsome youth walked out of the forest leisurely.
The mage's robe that was engraved with the Tulip Academy's logo was not dusty at all. It was as smooth as when he first entered. Coupled with his indifferent expression, it was as if he was going for an outing and not a trial. There was an indescribable calmness and elegance to it.
It was obvious that the spell that killed the trial-taker from the Dark Church was cast by him.
He was the one who had been chasing after him.
"Edward!"
"Joelson is finally out!"
The people from the two empires shouted excitedly.
Harriet Terrence revealed a sincere smile on his face.
Grover was still questioning Louis. He kept saying, "No magical beast essence crystals?! And no human heads?! How is it possible, Louis? What on Earth did you guys do in there?!"
Grover's face was filled with disbelief.
His two hands came out empty. There was nothing.
Why did the people of the Church of Light go in?!
Did they really go in for an outing like that youth?!
A hint of humiliation flashed across Louis' face. He turned his head and pointed at Joelson. "It was him. He took all of our magical beast essence crystals."
The entire place was silent. Countless gazes were focused on Joelson.
Without saying a word, he slowly walked up to the people from the two empires and waved his hand.
Crash!
It was as if he had summoned a storm of magical beast nuclei.
