Muyoung could easily tell who the other four Judges were.
At the same time, he figured out the location of where they may be.
Vast plains. Although there were the sky and the Sun, this wasn’t the Underworld.
Muyoung noticed that the atmosphere and the concentration of magic power were completely different from the Underworld.
‘Box of Trials.’
The ‘Box of Trials’ was an item that allowed people to set up their own trial and rewards.
It would automatically transport people who enter a particular area and it was set up behind the gates so that people who passed through would be forced to enter.
By seeing how elaborate the setup was, Muyoung could tell that they put in a lot of effort.
Those Judges… Kids from each group probably entered beforehand.
‘All rising talents were occasionally tested with trials like this.’
The system wouldn’t have given trials to only the newcomers. Clearly, a similar message had to be given to those five kids as well.
Of course, the situations of those five kids and the thousand newcomers who gathered here were completely different.
It was because the establishments that have dominated the Underworld for about 50 years had spent all their mind-boggling treasures to create these five people.
Especially, due to the nature of clans, the clan heads would have more authority than guild masters. This could lead to a more drastic difference in allocated resources.
In fact, the meaning of clans was different from the general term.
Clan members would normally be related to each other by blood, however, the clans in the Underworld weren’t like that. They were tied together with bonds thicker than blood.
Even if these bonds had degraded over time, because the bonds still existed, it was possible for those of higher ranking to pool their resources together.
Muyoung gazed at Fire Dragon Woo.
The Fire Dragon Clan could not be part of the Five Great Clans and were very displeased with that fact. In a few words, they were just a lump of inferiority complex.
It was certain that they wanted to take advantage of this chance to prove that they were superior.
Unlike Fire Dragon Woo, the other four people seemed to be members of the Nine Guilds or the Five Great Clans.
“You bastards lower than bugs! Remember! If you stay still, you’ll all die!”
Blaze!
As his spear moved, a blazing fire spread around him.
“Gahhh!”
“My body, my body!!”
And in an instant, seven people were burned into ashes.
What should he do?
Fire Dragon Woo was overwhelming. The little monster was crazily blasting fire everywhere.
However, the people who were gathered here all survived a month at a temple. It was unexpected, but they weren’t taken back.
“Let’s stick together!”
“Let’s beat this kid first and think later.”
The equipment they were carrying weren’t that bad. Of course, it wasn’t comparable to the five Judges, but, if a thousand newcomers fought together, it was definitely possible.
Some people within the group were even willing to risk their lives.
Literally, those people realized on their own that they need to fight with their lives on the line.
Every person realized themselves that they need to fight with their lives on the line.
Although Woo was a direct descendant of the Fire Dragon Clan, he was still only in his mid 20’s.
He couldn’t be experienced in fighting against a number this big on his own.
He wasn’t losing the fight, but he could only be taken back as the majority of the people who he called lower than bugs were grouping up against him.
“Hyungnim, shouldn’t we join them?”
Taehwan who was behind Muyoung asked.
Muyoung shook his head.
‘The four haven’t made their move yet.’
The four Judges near Woo.
Two boys, two girls.
They haven’t made their move yet.
However, they wouldn’t just watch Woo suffer.
Even if they didn’t really care for him, that didn’t mean they would allow people to gossip about how a descendant of a Fire Dragon Clan died in the hands of newbies, as this will lower their status as well.
It was foolish to fight against the five Judges when they were all gathered in one place.
“Why is he showing off?”
“Ah… I don’t feel like it.”
Finally, the rest of the four started to make their move.
As expected, they weren’t going to just sit and watch Woo get attacked.
They looked very relaxed as if they were all going on a walk, but as soon as they grabbed hold of their weapons, they turned into yakshas.
Thump!
Rumble!
