Chapter 23 - Wutian's a Main Character? Too Bad That Doesn't Matter

Back to Ella and Olivia, they approached the battlefield, where countless presences could be felt. Ella couldn't help but ask the system.

"System, you said that Wutian is located here, right?"

Ding!

[Accuracy: 100%.]

After hearing the system's confirmation, Ella turned her head and nudged Olivia awake. "Vivi, let's prepare."

After a moment of ignoring her, Ella immediately pinched Olivia's cheek, startling her.

"Ouch! I-I was just pretending… Eri, you're so mean~!" Olivia pouted, rubbing the spot where she had been pinched, her eyes shimmering with playful tears.

Seeing this, Ella's expression softened before she quickly explained the situation. "Wutian is already ahead. We need to prepare."

Hearing this, Olivia's playful demeanor shifted, her expression turning serious—but her face remained as lazy as ever. She clung to Ella's right hand as they moved in Wutian's direction.

"System, I almost forgot—you gave us the authority to see others' status. Can you show Wutian's status?" Ella asked, recalling the ability they received back on the boat when thirty thousand people bowed to them.

Ding!

[System Scan Complete.]

"Hm, impressive. So he really is a main character. Damn." Ella smirked as she analyzed Wutian's techniques. She quickly noticed a difference between his status and their own.

"System, our status has a lot of unknowns, but now I can see Wutian's full details. Also, what is this 'Initial Mastery' on techniques and 'Minor Mastery' on cultivation methods? Why aren't these shown in our status?" Ella asked, feeling a bit suspicious. For a moment, she even thought their own status might be fake.

Ding!

[Due to the twin hosts' unparalleled potential, all comprehended techniques instantly reach perfect mastery. Further cultivation is unnecessary, as mastery is absolute. However, a technique's full power remains bound to their current realm, only unlocking its true might as they ascend.]

"So… all the techniques we learn are already perfected. In other words, the system didn't display mastery levels because we've already reached perfection. This is good."

Ella was in a good mood. She now felt even more eager to advance to the next realm, excited to finally unleash the full might of her techniques.

Minutes later, they arrived.

What greeted them was an ocean of Lesser Gods, their numbers impossible to count.

Ella and Olivia floated in midair, gazing down coldly. Their aura was suffocating.

All eyes locked onto the twins. Unease spread through the Lesser Gods—many trembled, their hands shaking as if they were witnessing true gods descend upon them.

On the battlefield, Wutian was equally shocked.

He had already prepared the formation. With a single command, he could turn thousands of Lesser Gods into battle corpses that would drag their enemies to death with them.

But instead of activating it immediately, he hesitated.

He wanted to see the newcomers for himself.

And when he did, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Olivia? That's really Olivia…? And her strength—it's several times stronger than mine!"

Wutian was stunned. He never expected to see Olivia here, only to be greeted by a power that utterly surpassed him—even though he was an entire realm above her.

On the side, Jun—who had been terrified earlier—was now gleaming with excitement. He suddenly had an idea.

"Young sisters, I am the heir of the Jun Clan! You've come to kill Wutian, right? I'm willing to offer my storage bracelet!"

Jun spoke politely. He had no choice—without enough strength to be dominant, he shamelessly lowered his head, enduring the humiliation. If it meant revenge on Wutian, then it was worth it.

He immediately floated into the air and offered his storage bracelet.

But before he could get too close—

"Stop. Just throw the storage bracelet, and I will check it."

Ella wasn't careless. She didn't want to get close to anyone who might threaten her. She kept her distance, preparing to strike if necessary.

Jun hesitated, but quickly complied.

"Here."

He infused some force into the bracelet, sending it flying toward Ella.

Catching it, Ella carefully inspected it, checking for curses or hidden restrictions.

Seeing this, Jun was confused.

"She really doesn't trust me…"

Not only him, but many Lesser Gods were also staring at Ella, their unease growing.

After a minute of checking, Ella scanned the bracelet with her Primordial Sense. Finding nothing suspicious, she handed it to Olivia to wear.

Then, she turned her attention back to the battlefield.

"There's no problem. Now—where is this Wutian?" She asked coldly.

Jun, feeling hopeful, immediately pointed to a young man with red hair and a calm demeanor.

"He's right there!"

Wutian's expression darkened.

"Ugh… this shameless bastard. I'll definitely kill him."

He vowed to kill Jun for his shameless betrayal.

Many Lesser Gods shared his disgust—but at the same time, they understood.

If they were in Jun's position, they might have done something even worse.

Ella, meanwhile, had already activated her Primordial Force.

Her casual conversation was just buying time—waiting until ten percent of her Primordial Force had accumulated.

On the other side, Wutian remained outwardly calm, but inwardly, he was formulating an escape plan.

His instincts as a former Demonic Emperor felt like divination itself—if he ignored them, death was certain.

His senses screamed at him:

"If I'm careless, she'll kill me."

So, without hesitation, he activated the formation.

The battlefield trembled.

"Ugh… w-what's happening to my body?"

One of the Lesser Gods groaned as his body erupted with sinister energy.

One after another, the surrounding Lesser Gods underwent the same transformation.

From the Grand Arena, the spectators saw the change—but they could do nothing.

They couldn't force their way into the secret realm. They could only grit their teeth in frustration, watching helplessly.

Ella frowned.

"This Wutian… he's not underestimating me at all. As expected of a former Demonic Emperor."

She released ten percent of her Primordial Force.

BOOM!

The surroundings distorted.

A mere slap from Ella sent thousands of Lesser Gods flying, their bodies shattering into scattered remains.

Wutian could only watch in horror.

"Fuck—what the hell is this!?"

Even Olivia was startled.

And then—

She made them kneel.

And kneel again.

And again.

Even Wutian.

The Grand Arena fell silent.

"What kind of spell is this…?"

Gasps filled the air.
