Chapter 1089: Excitement

"I am starting to think that we are wasting time here…" Terra said when the group reunited to organize the final details and the tournament matches. "This is just too much work."

"We have the benefits of repressing a lot of people, but we have to deal with the problems and responsibilities that come with that as well," Seara said. "Nothing in this life comes for free."

After completing the preparations for the tournament, the group initiated a lengthy lottery process to determine the matchups for the first round. The sheer number of participants, a staggering sixteen thousand, added a layer of trouble to this stage of the event. Some suggested creating additional arenas to speed up the process, but Rain dismissed the idea. He had better things to do, and the existing arena, with its unique ability to repair itself using participants' mana, was sufficient.
