--- Chapter 207 ---
Vali Lucifer canceled his transformation and sighed because he couldn't maintain the Demonic White Dragon Demi-God Drive form for too long.
Since Vali just started the path of the newly reformed Douluo Cultivation System of the Dragon Nest, he still couldn't master the skill to combine his Demonic Energy, Draconic Origin, and Spirit Energy.
Unlike Huo Yuhao, he wasn't well-versed in this field. And to be fair, let's not talk about merging three forces alone because fusing two is hard enough already.
Not to mention, Vali has yet to master the Three Hakis.
Under Scathach's borderline suicide training, Vali only entered the intermediate stage of Observation and Armament Haki.
As for Conqueror's Haki, Vali could only describe it with his new transformation chant.
I envy the "Blue Sky." and pursue "His Endless Limit."
Vali Lucifer has set Huo Yuhao as his goal, knowing he wouldn't be able to surpass him, making the manifestation of his Conqueror's Haki hastened.
Every god, who hadn't made contact with the Dragon Nest, looked at Vali with a shocked expression. They have experienced many shocking things in the last hour, but Vali truly opened their eyes.
The new generation of White Dragon Emperor incorporated his Devil's Origin and Sacred Gear's prowess, showing them just how powerful the Otherworld's Power System was.
If the seven ladies of the 1st Round showed them how Draconic Deus's natives could cultivate Douluo Dalu's path, then Vali showed them how they could attain the Hybrid Path of it.
Unknown to them, Vali Lucifer was very dissatisfied with his power.
Well, it is mostly self-criticism.
"Not enough..." The silver-haired man mumbled to himself.
<You're doing great, Vali.> Albion's voice echoed in Vali's head.
Vali shook his head and denied, "Nah, Albion. Our new form is barely passable."
"Huo Yuhao is more refined and dominating."
"I couldn't even imagine how he could reach such fine control and not explode."
Albion sighed, <Stop comparing yourself with Yuhao, it wouldn't do anything good to you.>
"I know."
"I just want to try harder..."
Vali glanced at the position where his opponent Kori used to exist before getting eradicated by his attack. He scoffed because his Longinus Satan Ultimate Smasher was too much for her. That attack was "inherently." created to kill gods in the first place.
"Hmph, Faith System is just So-So." He commented while walking off the stage, infuriating the Hindu Gods.
Shiva's expression was calm, but deep inside, he was enraged. He looked at Vali Lucifer and said, "It seems my vision wasn't wrong."
"We must stop the Dragon Nest at all costs."
"Indeed, we were too naive before and underestimated Dragon Nest due to our pride." A voice reached Shiva's ear.
Shive recognized this voice at any time in the beginning. He didn't even have to turn around.
"It's you, Bayani." He said with a reassuring tone.
Bayani is a skinny-looking man with an unkempt white beard and hair. His eyes are deep brown, giving off an extraordinary feeling. And He wore a simple white robe to cover his tan skin-sticking to bone's physique.
Bayani is one of the Faith System's users, but unlike Kori, he was strong from the beginning. He was known as a genius who could recite sutra and dharma from a young age, creating his legend in the supernatural society, but not many people know him.
Even the gods, known for their omnipotence, couldn't recognize this skinny man. He just appeared out of thin air and maybe was born with it.
"Long time no see, Lord Shiva." Bayani bowed respectfully. "I've come out of my seclusion."
"Should I fight the next match?"
Hearing Bayani's question, Shiva calmly shook his head and returned, "No, you don't have to."
"Even though I'm eager to stop the Dragon Nest, we are not the only ones fighting them."
"Right, Indra?"
Indra frowned but didn't say anything. Since Loki and Shiva had sent their representatives onto the stage, he was the only one left to send one himself.
After this, gods would jump onto the stage and enter a fight. The three beginning matches concluded to test the Dragon Nest's power.
Another three matches for them to adapt.
And the last four is their chance to grasp victory.
Even though Indra knew it was wishful thinking, he could only hope the Dragon Nest wouldn't be too overbearing. He still remembered the young monstrous lady who killed his son.
Clenching his fist, Indra calmed down and said, "Go."
A shadow flew out, landing on the arena. Everyone looked at the shadow and couldn't help but gaze back at Indra.
It is because the shadow is a look-alike of Indra himself. A shadow is a man in battle armor, adorning a war helmet on his head and wielding a silver-colored vajra in his right hand.
They could see faint lightning dancing around the shadow's body.
Yet, in the Dragon Nest's area. No one was interested in this shadow.
"Teacher, are you going to fight that thing?" Qianye Ying'er asked while stuffing a red cherry into her mouth. She also fed one to Scathach.
Scathach glanced at the shadow and rolled her eyes, "Meh."
"Too weak."
"No substance."
"Not worth it. Unless that thing wanted to kill me with boredom."
Qianye Ying'er giggled and commented, "Those fellows would vomit blood due to anger if they heard you, you know? Hahaha~!"
Even then, Qianye Ying'er knew Scathach wasn't bluffing. When the purple-haired God Slayer says the enemy is far too weak for her enjoyment, she means it.
Well, it's not like there are that many people who could satisfy her battle-hungry nature. Qianye Ying'er counted around twenty people or so who could spar with Scathach without getting bullied in exchange, herself included.
After forming their God Seats, Qianye Ying'er was confident in her abilities. She also possessed more Concepts and Laws than Scathach.
"Yuhao, can I send someone to the arena? Don't worry. She is strong enough to handle that thing."
Huo Yuhao was observing the dimensional gap and replied, "Sure."
"Just don't let her fail. I can't lose my face after bragging earlier, right?"
Scathach smiled and assured him, "You'll be surprised."
"Valerie, go."
A young woman with short blonde hair and red eyes appeared from thin air, clawing out bloody dimensions. Drops of blood rotated and slowly fully revealed her body. She's no more than 169 centimeters with big breasts and slender yet fair legs.
She might be in her early twenties or younger than that, wearing Dragon Nest's special combat suit of Scathach's unit, a crimson robe coupled with deep purple thigh-hugging leggings. A blue dragon's head logo with two spears crossed seemingly embedded on the back of her robe.
If her beauty alone is "keenly." described as a pleasant sight, wearing this combat suit captures her valiant magnificence and enhances her charm as a hybrid of Vampire and Human.
Valerie Tepes is Dhampir. She was abused and forced to work for years, to the point she experienced backlash when her faction knew she possessed Longinus: Sephiroth Graal.
Sephiroth Graal is a Sacred Gear with endless power, allowing her to revive someone through the mystery of life and soul. But using it too much would consume her soul, making Valarie experience countless horror.
But thanks to Scathach's arrival at the Tepes's Territory not too long ago, Valerie Tepes successfully shattered her fate and became strong enough to control Sacred Gear's backlash.
"Progenitor, give me a few seconds." Valeria Tepes doesn't want to let Scathach down.
Scathach chuckled, "If you can't finish that thing in a few seconds, I'll increase your core training by a hundredfold."
Valeria landed on the stage and froze like a statue when hearing Scathach's words. "M-Me and my big mouth..."
She looked at Indra's shadow and mumbled, "I won't hold back and do my best."
Huo Yuhao yawned and said, "Third match. Starts."
SWOOSH!
Indra's shadow rushed toward Valerie, only to find the surrounding stage wrapped by a blood-colored field. The sky above the arena changed from bright blue to gloomy gray, releasing an eerie feeling.
Valeria's red eyes turned incredibly cold and borderline emotionless.
A golden cup appeared in her right hand, and a bloody cross appeared in the other. Both released an intense ray.
"Sorry..." Her calm voice echoed in the arena.
"I don't have time for this, so..."
"Could you die for me?"
BOOM!
The arena exploded as Valerie walked out of the stage, revealing a bloody crater with Indra's shadows dismembered into a thousand pieces.
"3rd Match, Dragon Nest's victory." Huo Yuhao announced while looking at Valerie Tepes in surprise. Not many people notice, but they should have caught how Valerie combines Soul and Life Manipulation, creating a Death Whisper that sucks one's life force.
And Indra's shadow is made by his divinity, which means he could feel his shadow's death.
"How..." The corner of Indra's mouth seeped with blood.
"How did Dragon Nest make so many monsters?"
