Slowing down the tempo.

Immediately the barriers appeared, that was when the first beast had arrived at the top.

It was a jackler and it had wasted no time in jumping at the closest, Blake, with the momentum on its way up.

'Why do I have a feeling that he had knowingly assigned us to the area with the highest beasts.' Blake complained as he shot out a flameburst, sending the jackler flying back into the other beasts and buying them some time.

"We need a barrier..." Blake said to his team as he brought out Ebony and Ivory from his dimensional space.

Without the need for more words, a battle array began forming above Castiel, and soon, Brian and Tessie joined in to create a tier 2 mana barrier battle array.

By that time the beasts had already recovered and were already at the top. The elite rank jackler once again pounced towards the group, while a sklade attacked from below.
