At this moment, in a dense forest on the island, Saimus, who had led his team away in a hurry, suddenly stopped and turned around to look behind him.
Not far away, dark clouds were gathering. Lightning and thunder flashed in the sky. Between them were red flames that crackled from time to time. A heavy flow of positive energy rumbled out in all directions.
"W- What's going on? What's happening over there?" A member of the team looked at the huge commotion behind him in shock.
"Is it another battle?"
"Isn't that where the herb farm is? Were Jaston and Mina upset and started another fight?"
"No way. They've been defeated."
"What's going on now? Should we turn back and have a look?"
Saimus' eyes flickered. He turned to them and said, "It's none of our business. We have to fend for ourselves first."
After that, he continued to run wildly away.
Coincidentally, at the other end of the forest were the injured Jaston and Ivlina who were also looking at the chaos that ensued behind them in shock.
After a moment of shock, they all turned their heads and sped up to leave.
At the same time, in front of the mirror outside the island. The captains were watching the scene playing in the mirror attentively with vivid expressions.
Nestor's face was full of worry.
Lucio, on the other hand, looked like he was feeding off his sadness.
Pierzy crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking confident.
As for the other captains, most of them were unbothered by what was happening. They enjoyed the bustling energy on the island.
At this moment, the scene in the mirror had become a picture of lightning, rain, and flames intertwined. The spreading light completely shrouded Fade and Balton. It was impossible to pinpoint both of their figures. One could only vaguely see them constantly colliding with each other.
Not too long later, the two men had been engaged in an intense battle for over five minutes.
Five minutes wasn't that long. However, fights among those at the Half- Lord Level would only take a few seconds.
These two men had been going at it for over five minutes, and yet the final result still was blurry. Therefore, the captains were all astonished to see this.
"I didn't expect Fade to last that long."
"He managed to hold out on Balton for five minutes. He is much stronger than I imagined!"
"Anyway, after this battle, Fade should at least be in second place. He's more than qualified."
Lucio, who was watching from a corner, couldn't help but look at Nestor and teased,
"Hehe, no matter how good he is, he has to survive first."
Nestor glared at him in response but didn't say anything. He continued to stare at the battle in the mirror, feeling particularly nervous and anxious.
There was a glimmer of hope within him that thought Fade might be able to defeat Balton.
Suddenly, at the exact moment, all the lights in the mirror collided with one another. A huge explosion followed after.
A bright red lotus emerged through the explosion and swallowed all the lightning and thunder, leaving nothing else behind.
"This..."
"What's going on? What happened?"
"Has someone won?"
"It looks like it's about to end."
All the captains exclaimed and stared at the mirror.
The red lotus gradually disappeared. Finally, a human figure emerged slowly in front of everybody's eyes.
"Who is it? Who the hell is it?" Some people couldn't wait any longer.
"Of course it's Balton! Is there even a need to ask?" Someone said in a disapproving manner.
