Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!-Chapter 354 - -What’s Going On?

At this moment, the four Overseers were also observing the scene.

When Rose effortlessly sent two of House La.’s champions flying like broken kites, Nar chuckled and remarked,

"What a pity. Looks like your House La. has just lost two spots."

Originally, with three contestants, House La. had a higher chance of success. But now, with only Saya remaining, their odds had significantly diminished.

La., however, seemed unfazed and calmly replied,

"They brought this upon themselves by scheming like that. As long as Saya is there, I believe she’ll succeed."

As time passed, the number of contestants on the staircase steadily dwindled.

Now, only ten remained, which meant that…

Just one more person needed to be eliminated, and the nine Gold Boards would have clear owners.

Among the remaining ten, four were tied to Crossbridge Academy.

At this point, the first contestant to initiate a fight stepped forward again and addressed the group:

"Everyone, there are ten of us left, but only nine Gold Boards. I propose we join forces and drive out one last person!"

He pointed toward the two beast clan contestants and continued,

"The beast clan once slaughtered tens of thousands of Sun and Lunar God Realm’s people. Today, we should make them pay in blood!"

Following his words, all eyes turned toward the two beast clan champions.

"Hmph! Lomon, trying to shift the blame onto us, are you? Let’s see if you survive first!" one of the beast clan members sneered.

The two immediately launched a joint attack against Lomon.

On the staircase, fighting while enduring its oppressive pressure was no easy task.

Under their two-on-one assault, Lomon was quickly forced into retreat.

At that moment, a sneak attack from below struck Lomon. It came from the first champion he had knocked off the staircase.

After all, every contestant was a champion in their own right—no one would accept defeat quietly, especially when dirty tactics were involved.

Seizing the opportunity, the two beast clan champions unleashed their strongest attacks, intending to send Lomon crashing down.

But just as they struck, an overwhelming aura erupted from Lomon’s body.

In an instant, he deflected the sneak attack and countered with a powerful blow that sent both beast clan champions plummeting down.

Now, only eight contestants remained.

With nine Gold Boards, there would even be a spare.

Everyone turned their attention to Lomon, whose newfound aura revealed the truth—he was a rank beyond God King!

Until now, Lomon had been hiding his strength.

At the critical moment, he revealed his true rank, stunning everyone present.

Achieving a rank above God King before the age of 100, Lomon was a champion among champions.

None of the other contestants came close to his level of power.

Even Big White, watching from below, was momentarily dumbfounded.

Someone this strong had been concealing their strength all along?

Did he enjoy playing the underdog that much?

"This Gold Board rightfully belongs to humanity! Crossbridge Academy, are you planning to protect this beast clan champion?" Lomon declared.

"If you want to fight us, go ahead and try. I’ve never faced anyone above God King before," Rose replied without hesitation.

Reed and Saya similarly signaled their readiness to fight.

Seeing this, Lomon weighed his options and responded,

"Very well, we walk different paths. I’ll wait for you at the top! And remember, the Gold Boards aren’t limited to one per person!"

With that, Lomon unleashed his full power and swiftly ascended to the top of the staircase like a gust of wind.

"Did I hear that right? This Gold Board competition has someone that strong?"

"Did you miss it? They called him ’beyond God King’!"

"Is there really a rank above God King that someone under 100 can achieve? That’s unbelievable!"

In God Realm, God King was the most revered rank.

God Kings could live for tens of thousands of years.

But someone above God King?

And under 100 years old?

Meanwhile, the Illusion Stone broadcasts left the 5-Element God King feeling a mix of pride and discomfort.

He glanced at Greenwood God King beside him and thought, Never mind, I’m fine.

Greenwood God King, who had been stuck at the God King rank for tens of thousands of years, looked visibly uneasy.

At the top of the staircase, Lomon stood, watching the Gold Boards begin to burn.

When Rose, Reed, and the others reached the summit, the Gold Boards had fully ignited, transforming into blazing orbs.

All eyes turned to the nine fiery orbs, waiting to see who they would choose.

Lomon was brimming with confidence.

As someone beyond God King, he believed himself the most suitable candidate for these inheritances.

Compared to the others, his rank allowed him to assimilate more than one Gold Board.

Then, one orb floated toward Rose, merging with her.

Three more orbs followed, merging with Reed, Saya, and King Shark.

Five fiery orbs remained, while four contestants waited.

Lomon smirked. With his superior rank, it was inevitable that he would claim two.

But what happened next stunned everyone.

Two of the orbs suddenly shot downward, away from the summit.

"What’s going on? Are those Gold Boards disappearing?"

"Why would they go down? Could they have chosen someone below?"

"That’s impossible! The rules clearly state that only those who pass the final trial can receive a Gold Board!"

"Then what’s happening? Why are they heading downward?"

No one could explain it.

The two orbs descended rapidly, heading straight for Big White and Lily.

In an instant, they merged with the two.

Everyone, including the fallen contestants, was utterly dumbfounded.

What just happened?

Among the spectators, Greenwood God King was equally stunned.

"5-Element, you’ve been hiding something, haven’t you? Didn’t you say your daughter wasn’t participating? Then why did a Gold Board choose her?"

"This… I don’t know! How would I know why the Gold Board moved on its own?" the 5-Element God King stammered, just as baffled as the rest.

Down below, Big White was watching the entire scene unfold and was utterly baffled. Who could have imagined someone hiding their strength so thoroughly? A rank beyond God King?
