Key Means to Secure Victory, Everyone's Hearts Clenched (Requesting Monthly Tickets)

A red sword appeared.

It seemed to be a sword outlined and filled in by countless red threads.

It was slender, with the shape of a heart at its hilt, still twitching.

It appeared in the void.

The Crystal Kingdom shone brilliantly, making it seem utterly out of place.

Yet strangely, no matter how the light shone upon it, it could not affect its existence in the slightest.

"What exactly is this..." Grand Wizard Aix narrowed his eyes. With the foundation and insight of a Bright Moon Grand Wizard, he gradually began to see through it.

"It exists within the mind—or perhaps consciousness—and also affects vision. Close your eyes, forget certain memories, and that sword will vanish."

"No. Once that sword has appeared, it will not vanish. A medium has formed and established a connection."

Grand Wizard Aix frowned slightly. Such a method was far too bizarre, yet also exquisitely ingenious. It had even amazed him.

What is its ability? Unknown. It covers too many aspects—I cannot even see through all of it. What a terrifying junior.

Could this be the result of its transformation over the past hundred years?

Grand Wizard Aix muttered those words inwardly.

The Esteemed Emperor Grand Wizard grinned. "It seems things have not developed as you predicted. Variables exist, and the outcome remains unknown."

"Reaching six Anomaly Petals is not exclusive to your disciple. Nightmare Wizard can do the same—and perhaps he accomplished it long ago."

"The wager will most likely be mine. That boy is about to exert his strength."

Grand Wizard Aix laughed silently. "Whether things will unfold as you hope remains unknown. Do not grow too confident."

The two seemed to have begun competing against one another.

They watched the battle within the arena at all times, overlooking not a single detail.
