The matches began.
At this moment, Kailen was still observing the matches.
He had yet to be called or matched up with anyone.
"This is just like the competitions of the Dao Enlightenment Academy," Kailen said.
The competitions were very brutal.
During one of the combat duels especially, two participants had previous vendetta with the other.
Turns out they were both disciples from a smaller sect in the Eldorath Empire.
One overpowered the other eventually, gauged the fellow's eyes out before they killed them.
People did not hesitate to kill. Although it was not by force to kill an opponent to win, killing was the norm.
The secondary Carrier battles, for instance, reminded Kailen of the one in the Dao Enlightenment Academy.
Spiritual power attacks, poison attacks between black flask alchemists, amongst others.
Some used their wills to manifest their laws, which were now an extension of themselves at the universe level, to attack one another.
