Chapter 2648 Final of the Champions Tournament (2)
While the dispute in The Adamant Land was hotting up, the decision of the two names that would go to Zocarro had already been decided in the Spiritual World!
The final round in the Spiritual World only served to finalize the rankings, something that the tournament rules required and punished anyone who failed to comply with by being banned from taking part in similar events in the future.
As such, on this last day of matches, the forces in Dry City were following the last matches, even though the result had already been decided.
But while the citizens were watching the last matches because it was interesting and exciting to see good fights between top-level warriors, Rowan was in the VIP area alongside the two winners.
His family and the empire’s leading figures were there with the emperor, congratulating the two names who would represent the Spiritual World and the Stuart family’s subordinates on this journey to Zocarro.
The winner of the non-subordinates was a level 97 dragon, while first place in the family subordinates’ rank was Joan West, eldest daughter of the former queen of Albano.
“Good luck to you on your journey to Zocarro. I hope you’ll work hard to help my father and one day return to the Spiritual World and give back what you’ve gained from this opportunity.” Rowan said with a smile on his face, while the two individuals grinned from ear to ear.
Besides these two, the two individuals who came second in the rankings of both subordinates and non-subordinates of the family were there, as they would be competing for the fifth spot on Zocarro.
One of these two was Julian, the level 99 Demigod, while the other was a level 96 Phoenix.
“When is our departure, Your Majesty?” The dragon asked anxiously, looking at Rowan expectantly.

“I believe in 11 months.” Rowan estimated close to what Vico had talked to him about. freёwebnovel.com
Callie hadn’t returned to Dry City yet, so he would need to talk to her to get an exact date of departure. But it shouldn’t be too different from his guess.
The dragon and Joan took a deep breath, aware they had to resolve many issues in the coming months to leave without regrets.
“Then I’d like to take my leave.” Joan asked respectfully, having already fought her last fight in the tournament and keen to return home to say goodbye to her family and organize her departure.
The dragon had similar things in mind to Joan and also left after receiving congratulations from everyone and the recommendation to report back to Dry City in nine months at the latest.
As the two left, Julian asked, “When are the matches for the fifth place, Your Majesty?”
“About that, you two can head to The Adamant Land as soon as you’re ready. The final round for the decision will take place there, so that’s beyond my power.” Rowan said, before advising, “But I recommend you say goodbye to your companions before you leave. If one of you two is the big winner, the chance of you being able to say goodbye again will be slim. Just don’t take too long to leave. Try to do it in no more than three months.”
Julian and the Phoenix nodded, showing that they understood what they had to do.
After also taking their leave, they set off with the intention of returning to the side of their forces and saying goodbye before heading for the North Sea.
The journey to The Adamant Land would take three months, so whoever won would probably spend their last six months on that planet, before joining the rest of the group who would leave for Zocarro.
Dillian approached Rowan after the winners and last competitors had left and said. “The Spiritual World won’t lose much strength with these individuals leaving.”
“Hmm, I know. The tournament was a pleasant surprise. Putting people to fight with an identical strength limit for each side gave us some great surprises. Who would have expected a low-level Demigod to take first place?” The emperor said as he thought of Joan.
Kyla approached him and Dillian and asked. “What about the two names left for you to choose from? Have you made up your mind?”
They had already received word from Callie and Vico that these two didn’t take people with their rightful places and, considering everyone Sarah had already chosen, there were two names left for Rowan to nominate.
“I’m going to send one of the gorgons into one of the vacancies. Their tribe has helped us a lot since they became our subordinates. And the power of a gorgon will do a lot of good for the group that will wait for us in Zocarro.” Rowan said to everyone in the VIP area, “But I haven’t decided on the last slot yet. I’ll wait for the outcome of the contest for fifth place. Depending on the result, I’ll make sure one of those two who finished second gets the chance to go to Zocarro.”
Vince Miles, Rowan’s grandfather, agreed with his grandson. The Phoenix tribe had helped them a lot too, while Julian had given Minos many opportunities and help in the past. It was good that he was going to consider rewarding one of the two sides.
“Anyway, let’s wait for senior Callie to return. I’ll tell her to take one of these two, in case they both return to the Spiritual World in defeat.”
…
Finally, the Champions Tournament would end in both worlds!
After the last matches in The Adamant Land, Davy was the winner of the race for the Stuart family’s subordinate position. Meanwhile, a level 98 Demigod, a former member of the royal family of Lusmait from the Central Continent and currently leader of his house in The Adamant Land, won the contest for non-subordinates of the family in that world.
Sibley came second with a beast native to the Continent of Beasts, who had also migrated to this planet, guaranteeing their right to compete for the fifth spot in the journey to Zocarro.
Thus, the group to join Minos’ people on Zocarro was almost formed and in only four months, the last games to decide these names would take place!
