The five names of the Samsara Geniuses shine across the Daybreak Universe, making their presence forever lasting.
Noah, Beelzebub, Sirik, Azazel, and Aion stared at the sky, and the honor of seeing their names there was indescribable. Even the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage had difficulty controlling his emotions.
From now on, every man, woman, and child will know their names, and they will not be forgotten as long as the Daybreak Universe exists!
It took a massive amount of energy for that lightning phenomenon to cover the entire Daybreak Universe. Still, the Emptiness Thearch made sure that it lasted for a whole minute before pulling his arm back.
"Rest now, as tomorrow you will fight until a champion emerges!"
Ezequiel said nothing else and flashed toward Numir and Athea before disappearing with both women.
Noah could not help but sigh when he saw that. It was clear to him that Athea would not feel well, seeing that none of the names on the sky belonged to her.
Even if he did not have romantic feelings for Athea, that did not mean he did not appreciate the young woman as they grew up together and were like brothers.
Noah clenched his fists as a powerful battle intent emerged in his heart. His eyes burned with silver flames as he turned toward Aion.
He was ready to send a challenge to the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage, but confusion appeared when he saw this one looking to the sky with a lost gaze.
The lightning phenomenon with their names was gone, so there was no reason for them to focus on the sky anymore, yet it seemed that Aion could not take his eyes off it.
It did not last long, and once focus returned to Aion's eyes, he immediately turned toward Noah. The smile on his face was gone, replaced by a profound sense of ancientness.
Noah was surprised by the sudden change in Aion, as it was as if this one had become a completely different person in a matter of seconds. Things only grew somber once he noticed a deep viciousness in Aion's eyes, one that even Nightmare Kings would fail to attain after a life of carnage.
The viciousness in Aion's eyes kept growing as he stared at Noah, but all of it vanished once the woman by his side touched his shoulder. The Neo-Demon's entire body trembled, and calm returned to his heart as he stared at his wife with pure love.
Aion stared at Noah again and showed his calm smile before nodding to the young man and leaving with his wife and kids.
Noah had a hard time figuring out what was happening with Aion. It was clear to him that the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage had a really mysterious background.
'It doesn't matter what his secrets are. I will defeat him!'
---
Twenty-four hours passed in the blink of an eye, and this time, the one that appeared in the sky was not the Emptiness Thearch but the strongest Depravita in the entire multiverse, Venganza.
The Revenge Thearch stood in the sky as his Depravita Aura flooded the heaven, generating darkness that covered the entire Daybreak Sector.
"I will direct the Final Stage. Like before, everybody can use all their power and attack without fear of the injuries you could provoke on your enemy or yourself, as I will stop the battle before any of you perish."
All the geniuses nodded as they heard the Revenge Thearch's voice. There was no question in their hearts they could unleash all their power and killing intent without the fear of ending their opponent's existence with Venganza looking after them.
The Revenge Thearch did not waste time and waved his hand, bringing two geniuses into the arena.
Noah was surprised to see that he would take part in the first fight of the Final Stage, but he soon focused when he saw that his enemy was none other than the woman who managed to finish her battles in a few seconds.
"Noah of the Daybreak Lineage vs. Azazel of the Depravita Race!"
Azazel's Dream Eyes were sharp as she focused on Noah. Of all the enemies she could face, the Neo-Demon with the Daybreak Lineage was the one she would have more problems fighting.
Noah's domain over the soul and incredibly potent soul force made him a perfect opponent against illusion masters like the Depravita.
If she wanted to win this battle, she would have to use every ounce of energy inside her and push her soul force beyond its limits.
"Fight!"
The instant Azazel heard Revenge Thearch's voice, all ten of her Dream Eyes exploded, and the blood in them fused with her soul force and Depravita Aura as she fired the mightiest illusion spell of her life against Noah.
Noah did not waste his time trying to dodge the illusion spell since this one was faster than anything he could unleash. He did not attempt to attack Azazel and instead simply closed his eyes.
The people in the coliseum thought they would once again face an illusion battle that happened in a realm their eyes could not see, but things were different this time.
Vengaza pointed to the sky, and the dark Depravita Aura became a holographic picture depicting Noah in a massive hellish realm.
Everything in it moved at a speed much faster than the real world since time worked differently in illusion, but even Rank 4 life forms could keep up with it, so there was no problem.
Noah saw his body melting into an ocean of lava as a demonic face appeared in the sky. The entity opened its mouth, unleashing a sea of insects that entered his body and began to devour him from the inside out.
The pain was excruciating, and something like Noah had never felt before in his life, but even in that state, he was able to unleash his counterattack.
Sky-blue shock waves emerged from Noah's body inside the illusion realm, making cracks appear on this one.
Noah's mastery over the soul force was superb, and his mastery over illusions was great, but he knew he could not overcome someone like Azazel in that aspect since the Depravita had trained in them for her entire life.
Since trying to take over the illusion would be futile, Noah decided to simply unleash his soul force inside it, forcing it to crumble under its own weight.
Keeping a consciousness inside an illusion realm required an immense focus and soul force, pushing Azazel to her limit, and now she had to fix the cracks formed around the dimension. She knew that if it were to crash, the backlash would be so massive that it would be lucky if she only lost consciousness.
Noah's body shattered over and over again in all sorts of excruciating ways, draining his soul force, but he clenched his teeth and kept unleashing sky-blue waves that filled the dimension with cracks.
Azazel's body could not stop trembling as she did all in her power to keep the illusion from shattering into pieces, and things were not looking well for her.
After ten minutes in the real world and over a week in the illusion realm, the battle reached its end.
"CRACK!"
The holographic picture in the sky shattered as Azazel could no longer keep the illusion stable.
Noah opened his eyes as his consciousness left the illusion, and he immediately fell to the ground since the mental exhaustion made it impossible for him to remain standing. Despite his body being in perfect condition, he could not move it, and fighting was impossible, but he did not care about that.
The reason for Noah's relaxed attitude was simple. He did not need to continue fighting since the battle was already over.
Streams of Depravita Aura fell from the sky into Azazel, stabilizing the young Depravita's soul and stopping it from shattering due to the backlash of having her illusion broken.
"Noah of the Daybreak Lineage is the winner."
Venganza declared Noah the victor of the first battle of the Final Stage before using his other hand to unleash a new torrent of Depravita Aura on the young Neo-Demon, healing this one as well.
The entire coliseum burst into cheers as they roared Noah's name. Seeing the young Neo-Demon enduring that hellish torment and remaining strong was terrific and filled everybody with a deep sense of courage.
Venganza allowed the young Neo-Demon to bask in the glory for an entire minute before waving his hand, sending Noah and Azazel away, and bringing the next duo.
The instant they appeared, all cheering stopped, and silence reigned in the coliseum. The ones that appeared were none other than Sirik and Aion.
Sirik had proven his might, showing the incredible power that the Astral Fiend Lineage could unleash. Still, the one he was facing now was the monster that no one could defeat, the one that ended his first two battles with a single attack and managed to dominate a bearer of the Lord of Emptiness Lineage!
