"Putting that aside..." An Elementary God stepped forward, gazing at the three on the ground before continuing, "Since the fight was interrupted, shall we consider it a draw?"

"You dare? It was obvious that Zamuria won the battle!" an Elementary God from the Zamuria continent shouted in response.

"Huh? Our Guria hadn't even used her trump card. She was waiting to take out both her opponents in one swing."

"As if. Rumria had maintained an upper hand right from the start. She could easily win if it wasn't for the interruption from your two sides. Isn't that why you interfered?"

"Are you blind? Your side also attacked! Were you scared because your representative was used to mop the floor?"

Instantly, the air turned volatile before the immortals started attacking each other. Since the immortals had already begun so, the mortals were also influenced.

Instantly, a bloodier war ensued forth. This time, even forces not part of the three empires were involved.

"Damn it! We only came here to witness the fight!"

"Fat chance! You'll become insurgents at this rate. Killing you is a necessity for the safety of our continent!"

Everyone attacked anyone in their range. It was turning bloody immediately. But suddenly, everything paused as the hairs of everyone stood on ends.

Bang!

Tribulation clouds formed in the sky as tribulation lightning rained down in the arena, beginning to destroy it as Krune shouted, "Stop this mess! We can resume battle after all sides regroup in their respective locations! This will only cripple all of our foundations!"

Even though the tribulation lightning was weak in the eyes of the powerhouses, it was still tribulation lightning, causing them to stare at Krune in shock.

It was instinctual.

After all, every immortal had to face tribulation lightning if they wished to ascend to a higher realm. Hence, the moment they witnessed it, they tensed up instinctively.

Upon gazing at the figure of Krune that was capable of wielding such a power, they were horrified.

'If this guy reaches the Primal God Realm' Such a thought resounded in their minds as killing intent flashed out from their eyes.

Though, Krune already had a plan, smirking as he put on an act, transmitting his voice everywhere. "Everyone already knows that to become stronger as an immortal, you'll have to survive against tribulation lightning. If you join our Mountain Sect, you'll get the chance to temper yourselves against tribulation lightning for mock practice."

"This way, your guarantee of a breakthrough is a hundred percent. This is the success rate that those in the Mountain Sect enjoy the privilege of. Every breakthrough results in success. And that is all because I'm there to train them."

Krune then flexed his strength as he continued, "The immortals from the Rumria and Guria continent must already be aware by now. Even though I'm only at the First Stage Semi-God Realm, even God Trial Realm cultivators at the peak of their realm are no match to me. How do you think this is possible?"

He then pointed at Zamura. "And, this freak here, our Sect Leader, has already managed to fend off two Primal Gods. That's how strong he is, even though he's only at the Third Stage of the God Trial Realm."

"Every cultivator that we had brought has been able to easily defeat opponents at the same realm and even challenge those from a higher realm." He put on a melodramatic voice as he added, "Had it been just one or two, then it could be amounted to us being geniuses. However, if every single immortal from our sect has these capabilities, something must be different, right?"

He then announced aloud, "If you join the Mountain Sect, you too would be capable of challenging cultivators or immortals above your realm. This, I guarantee."

"As long as you are related to these three continents, then you're qualified to join our sect. Anyone!" Krune glanced over the Elementary Gods as well, smirking. "Irrespective of your strength, you can join our sect and become a lot stronger than your current self."

'When did he turn this into an for our sect?' Zamura was internally surprised but didn't show it outward. He then noticed the faint twitching of Krune's facial muscles, feeling the urge to smack him right then and there. 'Even he himself isn't aware?'

'Well then, might as well cover him. It seems he's run out of content.' Zamura patted Krune's shoulder, saying, "I'll take it from here."

'Thank goodness!' Krune wiped his sweat after that. After all, he had only done so when he noticed the attention of everyone was on him thanks to the tribulation lightning he had unleashed.

So he thought might as well use this chance to recruit some powerhouses to their sect. There was no harm done with this, right?

Surprisingly, none interrupted him.

It was apparent that they had all seen him, Zamura, and Sterlena in action, not to mention the mortals and immortals from the Mountain Sect that had participated in the war.

So, they were already aware of how strong those from the Mountain Sect were compared to the others.

And now, since it seemed like Krune was giving details about their sect, none of them interrupted them, including the powerhouses.

After all, the punishment Sterlena had dealt to that Primal God was still evident in their minds. Even though he wasn't injured, he still shuddered while hovering in the air, trembling as he recalled the scene of all his laws breaking out of his control and acting against it.

It had caused him a trauma of sorts.

The actions of the Mountain Sect had been rather high profile. Moreover, Krune's single word caused all the unaffiliated Primal Gods to show intentions of joining their side.

After all, it was their plan to establish a sect in these continents anyway. However, even though they had failed at it, they still hadn't forgotten their dreams.

And now, the Mountain Sect was a successful manifestation of that dream.

One of those rouge Primal Gods focused on Zamura and asked, "Mountain Sect Leader, is your sect's resources capable of supporting us?"

In response to that, Zamura smiled before replying, "Nope!"
