As the chosens vanished into thin air, the Ascending Dragon Platform began to change.

Rumble! With the sound of a loud noise, the area within the central square of Machen Town had started to vibrate violently.

Soon, the towering stairway that rose to the heavens had begun to glow with a strange black and white light, as the lifelike sculpted dragon that coiled around the stairway had unexpectedly started to unwind itself.

Phew! The black and white light covered the entire Machen Town blanketing its skies for hundreds of kilometers as the now uncoiled dragon that was as tall as the heavens itself rushed towards the depths of the sky wrapping its body around a vast region of the sky.

The black and white lights shortly after receded merging into the lifelike dragon that hovered above the sky. It gave off a brilliant and dignifying aura as if everything in the world was worth nothing in its eyes as it spoke to the world.

"The Chosen Battle Arena has now been opened!" The voice loudly declared as its words resounded throughout the world for hundreds of kilometers.

Buzz! Following the sound of its voice, a massive arena soon began to form out of nothingness as the Ascending Dragon Platform vanished from the sight of the people.

Within moments the arena was complete as it floated in the void above Machen Town. It was a broad stone platform that had a width which exceeds the size of the entire town, with large black and white tiles paving its surface like a checkerboard.

At its edges were multiple elevated platforms on which all of the figures of the Major Influences now stood to observe the competitions.

The people seeing this scene were stunned to behold such a fantastic view but before they could get themselves to adapt to the strange sight another change occurred.

Flash! As the Chosen Battle Arena completed its construction the eyes of the dragon that blanketed the sky started to glow following which it rapidly descended towards the floating battle arena, wrapping itself around its edges creating a black and white scale boundary.

It then moved its head to the center of the battle arena as looked down on the empty platforms.

In an instant, a few flashes of light appeared on the battle platform where after all of the chosen candidates suddenly appeared each with a black and white circular token hovering by their sides, the floating symbols of the chosen candidates each had a unique number on its surface.

As the chosen candidates arrived on the battle arena, they looked around the platform in surprise.

"Where is this?" A candidate said as he looked around but couldn't find anything familiar, a few other candidates were also disturbed as they started to voice their worries.

Soon, however, a familiar voice sounded throughout the environment.

"You are all currently above the Chosen Battle Arena, which is now floating directly above Machen Town!" The gentle voice said.

Hearing this voice, the candidates quieted down as they look towards the source, quickly they found it.

It was an elevated platform that was a few hundred meters tall at the far-right edge of the battle arena. A few individuals could be seen standing on top of this platform they were the strange men in white, elders of the Sky Splitting Sword School along with the Bright Flame Guards.

The woman in white was now standing at the forefront of these individuals looking down towards the geniuses on the Chosen Battle Arena as she spoke, "This is the final phase of the Trial, and I'm sure that you've already been brief by the Guardian Construct of the Ascending Dragon Platform. Now, the battles will commence!"

A few geniuses hearing this were shocked, one of them spoke in a flurried manner.

"Guardian... a Guardian Construct? Such a terrifying creature is only a Construct..." He said while feeling fear as he looked at the dragon that wrapped around their battle arena with its head looking down at them.

Hui Ying looked up at the head of the dragon and muttered, "Oh... it seems that this Ancient Dragon Clan, was quite advance to be able to manufacture this kind of construct."

Feng Yu hearing this was stunned as he looked at the dragon once again and spoke to Hui Ying, "How this be a construct? I thought it was a beast using some sort of self-preservation technique which caused its body to be able to alternate between being a life existence and structure."

As Feng Yu said this, he couldn't help but recall some strange constructs in his former world, similar to the lifelike dragon in front of him.

"Em. It's a construct, but a construct that had been created by the materials of a real-life dragon with those traits," Hui Ying replied with certainty.

"How do you know this?" Feng Yu asked curiously as he looked at Hui Ying for answers.

"Let's just say I've gathered a bit of knowledge from my past adventures," Hui Ying said with a strange smile on his face...............
