[Match Starts in two hours]
The information the Ancient Being sent to the host was very detailed and it was tempting enough for the gods that were looking for their apostle.
For gods, they could not enter the world due to many restrictions and if they want to enter they have to use some valuable treasure which costs so many units of the God Essence.
Which god would spend so much of God Essence to enter the low-level worlds?
However, there would be some unpolished gems in these low-level worlds that could become their apostles and by sponsoring them from a very early stage, the gods would get the absolute trust of those apostles.
Moreover, to watch the fight in the Heavenly Arena, they have to spend only one unit of the God Essence which they didn't mind spending.
Therefore, the Ancient Being used that logic to make some God Essence.
'Not only I don't get any penalties for the death of the human in the Heavenly Arena, I can even make some extra God Essence.'
The Ancient Being that was covered in the black mist chuckled to himself as he started promoting the fight to as many gods as possible.
The true goal of hosting the fight was not for collecting the God Essence; instead, it was to eliminate one of the two humans.
From what he had seen so far, the Ancient Being felt that Leo and Morgan had grown so powerful while he was looking at the other worlds.
What's more, they even become the temporary apostles of the Dragon God and some unknown god.
'I don't know which god's apostle that brat became but since he was able to hide it even from me, then it must be a high-level god.'
From time to time the Ancient Being looked at Leo and muttered, 'It's like…he didn't have any apostle seal on his body. If he is not an apostle of a high-level god, then how did he get so many talents and skills?'
Originally, the Ancient being didn't sense any apostle seal from Leo's body; however, he watched Leo use multiple talents and skills.
Therefore, he came to the conclusion that Leo was also a temporary apostle of some unknown high-level god.
'Anyway, the sponsors won't bother too much even if their temporary apostles get killed by the other temporary apostles because they don't want the weak. They want a beast among the best.'
The Ancient Being was not worried about getting the ire of the Dragon God or the unknown high-level god as he resumed his duties.
....
[Huh? A fight between the humans from the gradeless world?]
[They already become the temporary apostles?]
[What? Dragon God's temporary apostle and the second one might be the apostle of a high-level god?]
[I am going to watch it]
[It's been a while since I took some temporary apostles. Let's take a look as well]
[I am bored as hell…what? A match between the supreme-ranked warriors? Let's go]
[When will the next Ascension Battle take place? It's been nearly a century. Anyway, let's get some entertainment with this lowly warriors battle. I hope it will be one percent as interesting as the Ascension Battle].

Soon, the gods who received the information released by the Ancient Being started buying the watching rights to the fight in the Heavenly Arena.
[Hey…that b*stard doesn't like humans, right? Why is he hosting a fight for them and inviting all the gods? The participants will become more powerful after leaving the Heavenly Fighting Arena. Did he change during my recent seclusion?]
[I still don't know how someone like you ascended to the God realm. He must be planning to kill one of the participants openly without getting any penalties. By doing so, the gradeless world's chances will decrease]
[But the other human will become more powerful, right?]
[So what? During the world assessment, that b*stard might even go down himself and fight one who survives in the Heavenly Fighting Arena]
[What a cruel b*stard!]
Some gods who formed an alliance discussed about the Ancient Being and his methods to prevent the worlds from passing the world assessment.
...…
In the Heavenly Fighting Arena,
'Wait a second…system, did that Ancient being see me extract the talents from the humans?'
Suddenly, Leo thought about something and hurriedly asked the system about it.
According to the remnant spirit of the Abyssal Demon God, he would be hunted if the other gods found out about his ability which connects him with someone that all the gods hate.
Therefore, he hurriedly asked the system about it.
'Ding,
If that Unknown God knew about that, he would have already killed you by now.
'Ding,
From now on, the system will activate a barrier to prevent the Gods from watching you when you use the [Talent Swallowing Ability].
'You can do that?'
Leo was surprised and heaved a sigh of relief about the problem that he was worried about for a while now.
'Ding,
However, I suggest the host not use that ability when so many gods are watching you as they might use some unique techniques or their Godly abilities to see through the barrier.
'Okay. I will be careful.'
Leo silently agreed with the system.
With the help of the system feature [Thoughts of the Gods], Leo could see how many gods were watching him. So, he knew when he had to use the [Talent Swallowing Ability] and when to not use it.
'Ding,
The system is still waiting for the host to select the mission he wants to complete.
Once, he heaved a sigh of relief, the system reminded him of the choice-type mission and asked him to select his choice.
"Which one should I pick?"
If they didn't get teleported to the barren land, Leo would have selected the second option where he had to kill five dragons with his followers.
However, since they were teleported to this barren land and even given some time to recover their energies, Leo wondered whether Morgan could summon the dragons that were not teleported with them.
'According to what that Ancient B*stard said, the fight will start only after we recover our strength and for him, his strength lies in his dragons. So, they will be recovered to their peak state, right?'
When he thought about it, Leo felt it was possible but the problem was whether Morgan could summon his dragons or not.
"Hey….can you summon your dragons? If not, this fight will be over in less than a minute."
There was only one way to replace out if it was to ask Morgan.
If Leo's guess was right, Morgan could summon them but still, he wanted to confirm it.
"Haha…let's see that when the fight begins."
Morgan was furious and wanted to start the fight right away; however, he didn't want to get a bad impression from the gods.
"Just tell me whether you can summon them during our fight or not. I can summon my undead beings? Can you summon them?"
Leo casually summoned the undead metal-clawed vulture and asked Morgan about it.
"Don't worry, my dragons will smash the remaining undead summons into dust."
'Roar'
Morgan was arrogant and proud. So, he was easily agitated by Leo and summoned his Giant Golden Armoured Dragon.
"Did you see…"
'System, I will go with the first option. I want to get the title [Dragon Slayer].'
The moment he saw the giant dragon, Leo no longer bothered Morgan and replied to the system to confirm the type of mission he would be completing.
"Hey…aren't you the one who asked about it? Why are you not looking?"
Morgan became furious and shouted at Leo a few more times before suppressing it and thought, 'This arrogant piece of sh*t…I am going to make you regret messing with me.'
...
Time continued to pass and in a flash, two hours passed by,
'Swiish'
The shiny orb appeared in the sky and said, <I used my prowess to reset the cooldown for your talents and skills while making you reach your peak state in these two hours>
<Let's begin the fight without any further ado>
***
Author's Note: The Ancient Being is the word that Leo uses to address the Ancient Voice because he didn't know the name of that God.
