While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

"Then if there are no objections, the 6 of you will not be able to leave this arena until the battle is decided and the judges of this battle are the crowd" stated the great elder.

"If you are not part of the battle, leave the arena and head towards the stands immediately" instructed the great elder as he jumped back up to the stands with ease.

Hearing what he said, Wayde looked over at Angela and felt conflicted.

Wayde was reluctant to leave Angela's side as he had vowed to always protect her even if it meant that he had to sacrifice his life, but after she told him to leave and seeing that Adam was with her, he felt slightly better.

He jumped up onto the stands and stood on the edge of the stands, ready to jump in and intervene at any moment despite knowing that it would ruin his own reputation and that of Angela.

It might also mean that he would have to fight directly against those that wanted to get in the way, however, he didn't care about the Epstein Family and wasn't worried about offending them, as long as he protected his master.

William was unable to jump up onto the stands, which was an incredibly high and far jump that would be impossible for even low level cultivators, as he had lost his cultivation. Instead, he walked up the stairs, along with the others that couldn't make the jump, until only the 6 youths were left in the centre of the arena.

With only the 6 of them left in the arena, a barrier was formed around the entire arena, which amazed them all apart from Mason who was the only one out of them that had seen the barrier be used before.

"Never seen a barrier before. This is formed using a large scale array and is being sustained by 10 elders using their Internal Energy all at once. It can handle multiple attacks from a peak level Advanced Cultivator, so there is no way that you will be able to break out of it and try to escape" stated Mason with an evil smile as he began to release his killing intent.

The barrier was almost completely see-through like glass and sound and the air wasn't trapped by the barrier, but no physical objects to entities could make it through the barrier.

It was an incredibly useful array and there were different adjustments that could be made to change its function, but to create it, one needed great knowledge, skill and large amounts of internal energy. It would be even harder to modify it and only a master level array master would be able to modify an array that had already been created without destroying it.

This blocked anyone from interfering in the battle and stopped any of them from breaking out until the elders reached a verdict on who they felt had won.

Mason's expression made his opponents feel as though they were trapped in the lion's den, but it might backfire on the lion if his prey was secretly more powerful than it.

It hadn't been mentioned that it was a fight to the death, but it was quite clear to all of them that they had the intention to kill each other, especially Cole and Mason who from birth were destined to fight each other as enemies.

The one that was least likely to be killed out of them all, was Angela, since none of them harboured any real animosity towards her apart from Martha who was filled with jealousy and envy. Even Mason, who was cold-hearted and only seeking to increase his own power and influence, wanted such a beauty to be by his side.

"Is everybody ready for the battle?" asked the great elder who was acting as the commentator.

None of the 6 youths answered his question and all stood in different stances that suited their battle style apart from Adam who stood comfortably with his arms crossed. 

"I will assume that your silence means that you are all ready. Unless there are any objections I will stay the countdown" continued the great elder, ignoring the disrespect of them not answering, more excited to see the result of their battle.

The great elder counted down from 3 and the entire crowd was silent, all completely focused on the 6 youths in the centre of the large arena, also excited to watch the battle.

Counting down from 3, after saying 1 the great elder bellowed, "You may begin" extremely loudly.

His voice resounded throughout the arena, but with the sound barrier that was around the arena and the hundreds of guards stationed, they didn't have to worry about disturbing the public.

The ignorant ordinary people were all moving along with their day ordinarily and not only were sound, illusion and protective barriers placed around the arena, but there were also guards stationed around, both in and out of the Illusion Barrier.

It was inevitable for the knowledge of the event to reach other cultivators, but it was almost impossible for one to get into the event undetected unless they had managed to enter as one of the Epstein Family, which was quite easy to do.

The news of the battle involving the Maxwell and Epstein Family had spread around New York before the battle had even begun, and the Lin Family who had heard the news of what had happened were surprised.

They would either need to take down the Maxwell Famly quickly before they were able to use the power and resources of the Epstein Family to defend themselves or switch targets. It seemed that it was inevitable for them to ally themselves with each other no matter the outcome of the battle.

Otherwise, taking on two of the large cultivation families, was basically suicide especially since the Epstein Family was the most knowledgable family in New York that was also the biggest producer of cultivation goods.

Or they could change targets as they weren't planning on giving up their ambitions, but before they made any decisions that would affect their family's future, they decided to wait to see what happened as there were no guarantees in life.

As soon as the 6 youths were permitted to battle, they all made sudden movements, some dashing towards each other, while others making distance.
