Zatiel's soul phantom unleashed an aura so majestic that the entire universe trembled for an instant. However, although the Sacred Kings made it with the Samsara Thearch's soul force, it was just an incarnation.
After a moment, its majestic and oppressing aura weakened, allowing the geniuses to take a breath.
Noah, Sirik, and all the other geniuses glanced at the soul phantom and saw how the force in this one exploded, making nine majestic heavenly bodies emerge in the sky.
Everybody watching from inside the colosseum saw those worlds and the different powers inside them, making them wonder what the semi-finals would hold for the geniuses.
Slowly, those majestic worlds began forming a pillar, with the first one at the feet of Zatiel's soul phantom and the last right before his face.
Hades' aura spiked for a moment, driving the cadets' attention to him as he prepared to give the instructions.
"The semi-finals will take place in the Nine Sacred Samsara Worlds. Each of those majestic heavenly bodies encompasses one period of the Lord of All Existence's life.
Your missions are to perceive the laws, Concepts, and universal forces in each of those worlds, allowing you to awaken a memory of the Samsara Thearch before rising to the next one.
The fewer the people in each of the Nine Sacred Samsara Worlds, the easier it would become for the rest to understand its essence. That means that the faster you rise, the easier it will be to reach the final world.
Of course, you can also diminish the number of people in your world by defeating them. If someone is about to die, the Thearchs will take them out before any lethal damage.
Feel free to go all out if that is what you want since it is not possible for an accident to happen.
The first thirty-three to understand the essence of the Ninth Sacred Samsara World will pass to the finals."
As soon as Hades finished with his words, all the cadets glanced at each other. Almost ninety percent of them would fail, and everyone was a possible enemy.
Hades smiled as he saw the fighting will in those youths and nodded.
"The first Sacred Samsara World is the Sundered Agony World. All geniuses from the Daybreak Universe, march!"
Every single one of those geniuses made their energy explode as they flashed toward that first world, ready to give everything they had.
Noah's eyes burned with silver light as he prepared himself to crush every obstacle on his path, just like his father did dozens of thousands of years ago.
When Noah was about to reach the world's surface, he felt a force take control of his body, teleporting him to a random location. First, a blinding light assaulted him, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself in the middle of a storm of apocalyptic proportions.
Noah looked up and saw black clouds that covered the sky as far as the eye could see, and beneath him was a raging ocean generating waves that could rise millions of kilometers.
"¡BOOM!"
Suddenly, Noah heard a powerful thunder that disoriented him, but that state did not last long as a sense of utter danger assaulted him. He was able to move to the side in the last second, just in time to dodge a mighty lightning arc that came crashing down from the sky.
Noah's eyes widened as he saw that lightning collided with the raging ocean, and he knew that had it landed on him, it would have left severe wounds.
However, Noah was not out of danger yet, as a few seconds after the lightning fell, a powerful wave rose from the ocean and threatened to swallow him.
Noah took out a spear bathed in purple flames and hacked with all his strength at the mighty wave coming toward him.
"Samsara Slash!" Noah's spear unleashed a purple arc of energy that seemed capable of cutting the laws and Concepts.
The attack was far from being able to really cut the Daybreak Universe's laws and Concepts, but if Noah's cultivation and power rose high enough, it could do it.
That purple arc of energy cut the mighty wave, saving Noah from drowning in that raging ocean.
Noah took several deep breaths as he calmed down and analyzed the situation.
'This Sundered Agony World is a death trap. I must be on the lookout for other contestants and dodge this raging storm, all while I perceive the world's essence.'
Noah felt that the difficulty of the semi-finals was outlandish. Still, complaining would get him nothing, so he adopted a meditative position while focusing on his third eye, trying to use that sacred organ to decipher the world's essence.
The people in the colosseum look at the Sundered Agony World with worry and anticipation, hoping their loved ones will rise higher and higher.
The Nine Sacred Kings also paid attention to the geniuses inside the Sundered Agony World, and their souls were strong enough to allow them to see the three hundred and twenty-nine people at once.
"Hahaha, your little brother is fast, Genesis. He immediately entered a state of complete focus and began deciphering the essence of the Sundered Agony World."
A young man with a spear and twelve black wings bathed in blue flames that seemed capable of burning without end spoke about Noah's advance.
"That brat usually lacks focus, but he seems to have grown more mature over the last few months." The Genesis Sacred King glanced at the man on one of the giant thrones before focusing again on the Sundered Agony World.
"It is good that he has tempered his will to this task. Although his talent and perceptions are incredibly high, they would not have been enough. I hope he can be among the top three to reach the Ninth Sacred World."
Dante showed a small smile as he saw Noah's hard work. He did not like his brother's easygoing attitude, but he loved this one too much and could not harden his heart and deliver the proper training.
Luckily, Ezequiel did not have that problem.
