1034 Number 3

All 40 participants stood on the stage after Giant Emperor Kulas announced the end of the qualifiers when the Ancestral Tablet was destroyed.

"The 40 of you will now fight against each other until only one of you remains undefeated. We will decide the matches through a lottery system." Giant Emperor Kulas snapped his fingers, summoning someone onto the stage.

This person was holding onto a metal tray that had 40 storage pouches on it.

"Every storage pouch will have a number inside, from number one to twenty. Those that have picked the same number will be fighting against each other. Simple, right? Go ahead and choose your pouches."

Yuan and the other participants went to grab their storage pouch.

Once everyone had one in their grasp, they opened it to retrieve a piece of paper with a number on it.

'Number three…' Yuan read the number on his paper in his head.
