At a separate location surrounding the massive structure of the seventh layer, nine portals sprang to life. Through these portals, hundreds of magus, elves, and humans charged into the fray, determined to unleash their formidable abilities to both dismantle the celestial constructs and defend the area from any threats.
Much like Emery's group, the primary objective was to propel as many magus within the coalition as possible into the coveted top 1000 ranking. To achieve this, they needed to clear celestial constructs at an impressive pace within the allocated time.
To streamline their efforts, Jinkan had initiated soul contracts with 40 mercenaries, rogue magus who recognized their position near the bottom of the 4000 participants, and opted for an additional reward from the Nephilim princess instead of struggling for a higher rank.
