Everyone looked in bewilderment at the 'hole in space' where Krune and Iem disappeared. No one knew what was happening since the laws used to open that were not from the Lower Realms. No one other than Wally could tell that that was a hole connecting to the Godly Path Realm. Still, he pretended to not know anything.
"Where are they?"
"Did they teleport outside?"
"Are you kidding? The formations set up around the arena are the best ones possible. They definitely wouldn't be able to teleport outside."
"But the hole disappeared, and they are nowhere to be seen."
"What you talking about? Did you feel any Space Laws? I didn't at all!"
Norzulun and Wally looked at each other. Norzulun had the feeling that Wally is involved. But if that is the case, why? He didn't need to make such a scene. With Wally's power, he could simply go there, take Krune, and go away. No one would be able to stop him. That being such, such a play would be meaningless.
Norzulun thought that perhaps it had something to do with Iem Turo. But he immediately shook his head after. The same rule applied here. Wally could simply wait for the Heavenly Competition to be over and then contact or even kidnap Iem Turo by himself later. Once again, what would be the point of such a play?
"Check the arena. See if those two are really gone or if they are hiding with some technique."
The elders nodded, and together with the judge, they scanned the entire arena. However, even those who knew how to use the Fourth Dimension couldn't find a single trace of Krune or Iem, much to their confusion.
One hour passed, and Norzulun could only step forward to continue the competition.
"We verified everything, but we can't find any trace from Krune or Iem Turo. Still, the Heavenly Competition is ongoing. There had been several other weird events in past Heavenly Competitions. Nevertheless, we never canceled them, nor will we do it now. With Iem and Krune's disappearance, we can't decide who is the winner of their fight. That being said, both Iem and Krune are now considered to have lost their battle. If they do not come back for their remaining fights in the next rounds, it will be their automatic loss as well."
That was the best that could be done. It is a rule that whatever happens, the Heavenly Competition must continue. Even if all the finalists disappeared, the Dalin Universe management would simply take those who failed to reach the top 8 and set it with them.
The spectators didn't know what to say. The two strongest competitors disappeared just like that, so they couldn't help but feel like something was suspicious. However, they also thought that it made no sense. After all, both Krune and Iem already got 4 victories each. Even if they lose the last two fights by default, their results won't change. A Dalin Universe Management Slot is already guaranteed for both of their Universes.
The rule of the Heavenly Competition was that no one should intervene until a winner is found. If someone's protector did it, their member would be disqualified, just like Tirande and Tiango. In that case, all their victories so far would be meaningless.
That's why Iem Turo's Protector did not come forward. He was clenching his fists hard while Iem Turo was sucked into that 'hole in space.' Still, he held himself back and didn't step forward because he knew how many victories Iem had. Iem is definitely very important for Dalin Universe, but the Slot is even more so. He couldn't risk losing Dalin Universe Management's Slot no matter what.
On Krune's side, Erzato had a conflicted expression. It was because of the same reason that he didn't step forward. With Krune's four victories, Luvile Universe has already guaranteed their Dalin Universe Management Slot, so he simply couldn't risk it. Still, Krune was already that strong even without being a Heavenly Divine Soul Owner. So wouldn't he be a risk in the future as well? But then again, the sacred lands might have many uses for Krune's power in the future.
Back in the Luvile Universe, everyone was already commemorating even before Krune's started his battle against Iem. After all, they knew that a slot is nows theirs. But they were still taken aback by Krune's real power during his fight against Iem Turo. It obviously raised some alarms in their head. However, he suddenly disappeared in the middle of the final phase. They simply didn't know what to think about it. Was it a good thing or a bad thing? The Sacred Lands couldn't tell.
In the Divine Path Sect, Lucio's face was dark, and so was everyone else's. Krune also guaranteed their Slot, but they were more concerned about Krune himself.
In the wisp main world, Fie and Feifei were also worried. They didn't know what happened at all. Was that an underhanded move of the Dalin Universe? Not likely. Krune would never step into the Heavenly Competition if he wasn't confident that the Dalin Universe wouldn't intervene. The same could be said for Cinty, Ruik, Laex, and the rest. If that is the case, then what happened just now?
The battles continued. Hanan would be Krune's next opponent on the 6th round, which he obviously won by default. Laka was also supposed to fight Iem Turo in the same round, so he ended winning by default too. As one can imagine, Laka was anything but happy. For someone like him, he totally wanted to try his chances against Iem.
In the 7th round, the same thing happened again. Krune and Iem didn't appear, losing by default once more. With that, the results of the competition were out.
The Slots went to...
Laka, Kizan Universe - 6 wins. Laka only lost his fight against Krune and no other. He would probably fail if Iem was still here, but he ended winning by default.
Waka Ulin, Ulin Universe - 5 wins. He only lost a fight against Krune and Laka in the end. Laka proved to be a lot crazier than he expected. He used his body and the Purple Flame Dragon Pearl's power to resist Waka's attacks, achieving a narrow victory in the end. Even Waka's Dimensional Slash was conquered through Laka's recklessness.
Hanan, Frunkan Universe - 4 wins. Hanan won his fight against Krune by default, so he knew that he already got a slot with that result. Besides, he had used his clan Forbidden Technique in the fight against Sara, so it was better to simply give up the last battle to prevent further injuries. Hanan didn't mind dying if he could get a Dalin Universe Management Slot, but since he can live and still get it, then why not?
Krune, Luvile Universe - 4 wins. Obviously, Krue would probably get more points, but he was nowhere to be seen. Nonetheless, he got enough victories.
And finally, Iem Turo, Dalin Universe - 4 wins. Basically, the same reason as Krune.
With that, the Heavenly Competition was over. Sara, Sule, and Jovlare didn't get a slot in the end.
At some point, Wally disappeared without leaving a trace. Norzulun only saw that he was gone after he finished announcing the results. He still felt that Wally probably had something to do with Krune and Iem's disappearance, but there was nothing he could do. At the very least, he can't prove that Wally intervened. Nonetheless, he was the main suspect.
Back in the Wisp Main World, Feifei's group saw that the broadcast ended.
Feifei then looked at the others and said.
"I need to go there. Krune can't simply disappear like that. I need to find him!"
Fie immediately agreed.
"I'm going too. Dad might need our help at this very moment."
Lala, on the other hand, disagreed with them.
"You can't go there. That place is guarded by several Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts. What do you expect to do there? Chances are that you will be immediately captured. At the very least, I'm sure that the Dalin Universe won't allow you to get close to the place where the competition was held."
Tiane agreed with Lala.
"Lala is right. We need to think about another approach. By the way, is Krune's Soul Flame still lit in the Wisp Main World?"
Cinty nodded.
"Yes. The moment Krune disappeared in that 'hole in space,' I checked his Soul Flame. It is still there, and it doesn't seem to be affected."
Feifei didn't care, though.
"Even if you say so, I still need to go."
Feifei was just about to move out when suddenly, a Divine Sense Message reached everyone's minds.
"Don't worry, Krune is fine. He will be back soon too. You just need to wait."
Everyone was taken aback. That was a voice that no one had heard before. Well, no one except for Heavin.
"Wally!"
One must remember that when Krune went to Floor Number Zero, only he, Luvile, and Heavin were present.
"What? Did you say, Wally?"
Suddenly, a colored wisp appeared right in the middle of the room. If not that Wally's wisp core was much bigger than Krune's, it would be hard to notice the difference.
"Oh! Aren't you that Parrot Puppet that Krune had on his shoulder? It seems like you were successful in separating yourself from Krune's Divine Soul."
Heavin immediately nodded.
"Yes, I did. But we can talk about that later. What about Krune?"
Wally then returned to his human form. After that, he explained what happened and where Krune had gone to.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Everyone looked in bewilderment at the 'hole in space' where Krune and Iem disappeared. No one knew what was happening since the laws used to open that were not from the Lower Realms.
