Time flew by, and the fourth exam had already started!

On the first day of tests, all eight experts sent from the Flaming Empire attended a grand opening ceremony. On this day, the first 16 fights took place for an audience of over 100 thousand people in that arena!

Before this part of the competition started, a draw was made, and the 32 participants knew who they would fight with in the first round. And of Minos' acquaintances, most of them would fight against other opponents, while only Kara and Peter would fight against each other.

And when he found out about it, Peter had been very disappointed, since he could not fight those stronger than he, as the young Stuart did.

As expected, he lost the fight without much resistance. After all, the young Kara was already at level 43, while he was only at level 40!

With that, Peter was the first acquaintance of Minos who had fallen in this last part of the Spiritual Tournament.

In the case of Abby, she was fortunate and was placed against someone who was at level 40, like her. And after a very close fight, the young woman with blue hair had won and passed to the next round!

As for Abby's friend, Mona, and the young master of the Nash family, Luke, both were at level 41 and had fought against level 40 opponents. With that, the two managed to get through this phase of the test relatively quickly, moving on to the next part of this exam.

In Ford's fight, he faced an opponent of the same level as him, level 41, and after much difficulty, he managed to become the winner of that fight!

And for the last two youngsters of the highest level in this competition, Troy and Davy, the two were already at level 44, and when they faced their respective opponents, they did not have much difficulty.

Troy had eliminated a level 41 competitor, while Davy fought a level 40 young woman. And although losing an arm diminished Davy's fighting prowess, he still had high cultivation, which allowed him to win with some ease his opponent.

Finally, Minos fought a young man at level 41, but he just used a blow, winning his fight in less than 5 seconds!

There wasn't much of a challenge for him in this first round of the competition's final exam!

After that first day of tests, another draw was held, and this time, more friends of Minos would face each other on the second day of fights!

The result of the draw brought Davy and Abby face to face, as well as Mona and Ford. As for the other youths, there were no other fights between Minos' acquaintances.

Minos would also face someone at level 42 in the next round, but he did not know his opponent.

...

After that, the second round of tests arrived, and all the viewers had already occupied every space in that arena.

Envoys from the Flaming Empire sects were also already in place, actively discussing what had happened the day before.

"Haha, that young Troy and that Minos will definitely make it to the final, but what did you think of the other competitors?" A ginger man asked as he sat in his chair next to these other specialists.

Then a blond, thin-faced man said with a smile on his face. "I have my eye on that other young man who is at level 44. I heard that he has a Silver talent, and even though he has lost an arm, this could be resolved in the future. If he reaches the semifinals, I will bring him to my Mountain Sect!"

Upon hearing this, one of the women in the group laughed and said. "Haha, this is not for you to decide! I think he will end up choosing my Holy Sect."

At this point in the conversation, the young woman from the Gray Cloud Sect suddenly said. "That ginger girl also caught my attention a lot. I think she is the favorite for third place..."

...

While the eight experts were talking, the fights for this round had already started!

This time Minos was the first to go up on stage, fighting a level 42 young man. With that, due to the young Stuart's extreme fighting proficiency, after a few exchanges, the fight was over, with him being the first competitor to qualify for the quarterfinals of the Spiritual Tournament!

After that, the young Davy and Abby took the stage and started their fight. But there was no way for Minos' friend to ignore the difference in cultivation between her level and that of her opponent.

Therefore, the young woman with blue hair soon lost the fight, being eliminated from the competition. But she had not been too disappointed by this. After all, she had been the only participant at level 40 to reach the round of 16!

Not long after, the young Roger, who had passed with a lot of effort in the third test, fought and defeated his opponent, who was at level 42, just like him.

He did very well when he fought with his opponents due to an innate ability. This ability significantly increased the youngster's defense, which enabled him to withstand more attacks than most cultivators of the same level as him!

With that, Roger had gotten his spot in the quarterfinals!

After that fight, Mona and Ford took the stage and had the most exciting fight of the day!

They were on the same level, so they had to take every strength they had in this fight. And in the end, the young Mona had become the winner!

As for the remaining fights of the day, Luke managed to qualify for the quarterfinals after fighting against an opponent of the same level as him. However, by having a grade-2, low-level weapon, the young master of the Nash family had achieved victory.

Luke was pleased with such a result. Not only was his goal complete, but he was also fortunate and not found with Minos throughout the competition. 

Before the Spiritual Tournament started, Luke had been afraid after seeing that Minos was also around. But fate seemed to be on his side, and the only time he saw the young Stuart up close was at the Capital City Cultivation Tower before the tournament started.

Finally, Troy faced and beat a level 42 opponent in the last fight of the day. It was a quick fight, but there was no reason for the other young man to give up, just because he had smaller cultivation.

Even if a competitor was eliminated, they could still attract the attention of envoys from the Flaming Empire sects. So, each youth who went up to the fighting stage used everything they had, even when they faced monsters like Troy!

Upon seeing the end of the last fight, the eight people soon returned to discuss while recalling what had happened on this day of battles.

"Ahh, those two youths, ehh, Mona and, ehh, Luke, they weren't bad. These two managed to advance to the quarterfinals even though they were only at level 41!" One of the men said with an exciting look.

"Hmm, but what caught my attention the most was that young man who used a spear. He has an innate ability very useful in fights!"

"Haha, the fights today were even better than yesterday. I'm looking forward to seeing those quarterfinals!" Other said with a smile on his face.

All of them were in the initial levels of the 6th stage, Spiritual King, so they still enjoyed watching fights at the level that was going on.

After all, they all came from an empire, so they had incredible cultivation speeds. Thus, most of them were at the level of these young competitors for less than a decade, which made them excited to see fights of this level, even if there was a big difference between their current strength and that of these young people.

Anyway, after the end of the fights of the second day, another draw was carried out to determine who would fight with whom in the quarterfinals!

In this draw, the first fight of the third day would be held between Mona and Luke.

The young master of the Nash family had been pleased with this result. After all, even though he had already secured his name in the top 10, he wanted to go as far as possible in this competition!

With that, Luke was guaranteed his place to go to the Elemental Sect of the Western Empire!

The second fight of the day would be between Kara and Roger, followed by Minos' battle with a level 42 young man that he did not know. Finally, the quarterfinals would end with Troy and Davy's fight!

Unfortunately for these youngsters of level 44, only one of them would continue in the semifinals!

That was the possibility that the draws could have, putting stronger opponents in less advanced stages of the competition...

Upon hearing this order of fights, the entire audience was in euphoria, as the Spiritual Tournament was finally reaching its climax, with the strongest opponents fighting each other!

At this point, the people who were following the draw started to argue actively. "Haha, this Minos is very lucky! His fight will be the easiest on the third day!"

"Hmm, but it is better this way. If he fought the young Troy in the quarterfinals, that would be a real tragedy for one of the two!" Another person said out loud.
