Once again, Celia had decided to be the first of Team Freedom to move onto the next stage. Due to this, she gave an encouraging speech before leaving in the middle of the night with Team Shadow Liege to participate in the Fifth Stage.
Team Shadow Liege was now comprised of Celia, Raven, Arora, Kate, Lilly, and Shade. The team was back together. However, Nova had decided to leave the team and join up with Team Slayers instead. This was due to the unbalanced power difference between the teams.
Currently, Team Shadow Liege had two Potentate Rulers. If Nova were to continue being a part of the team, that would result in there being three Potentate Rulers. This unbalanced the other two main teams significantly since they only had one Potentate Ruler each.
