**Chapter 1370: Top 10 Can Resurrect the Deceased!**
August 21st, exactly ten o'clock in the morning.
After two hours of entry, hundreds of thousands of audience once again filled the ten-story grandstand.
Tens of thousands of Wind Stone Seats were even floating in mid-air, moving freely.
[Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!]
As the mages organized by the 'Competition Organizer' fired beams of Magic Light Flame towards the sky, clusters of magnificent fireworks instantly bloomed in the air.
Even though it was daytime, it didn't affect their brilliance and color.
This is what makes Magic Fireworks superior to Gunpowder fireworks.
"Distinguished guests, esteemed audience, welcome to the 'Top 16 Elimination Round' of the 'Second Myriad Worlds Top 100 Combat Power Tournament'!"
"I am your familiar old friend, the chief host of the Multiverse Duel Arena, Gaz!"
These words instantly left the audience at the scene and the audience in front of screens in various worlds speechless.
Except for the people from Dressrosa, everyone else had only seen him once during the 'Reincarnation Paradise' event.
How did he suddenly become a 'familiar' 'old friend' in his telling?
"As you all should know, in this 'Top 100 Competition', only the 'Top 10' have the qualification to propose their wishes to the 'Competition Organizing Department', which is the World Government!"
"Whether it's wanting a Mythical Grade Secret Treasure, entering an important official department, or even resurrecting recently deceased relatives and friends, the World Government will fulfill it!"
Gaz paid no mind to what the audience thought, explaining loudly based on the information he had received in advance.
As expected, when the mention of 'Resurrecting recently Deceased Relatives and Friends' appeared, the entire Multiverse Duel Arena immediately erupted in an uproar.
Resurrect the deceased?
Can the World Government even do something like this?!
"What?!"
Inside Shura's guest room, Mez, naked and even bearing some scars, was stunned while sitting on the messy bed.
The Top 10 can even ask the World Government to resurrect their family?
She had only heard before that the Top 10 could obtain Secret Treasures like Devil Fruit, or other rare resources, such as advanced techniques for Haki, or cultivation secret methods for the Swordsman Realm.
Doesn't that mean that as long as she becomes one of the Top 10, she can have her father resurrected?
No, he just said 'recently deceased'. Her father passed away over a year ago, so it's very likely he cannot be resurrected.
This caused the light of hope that had just lit up in Mez's eyes to instantly dim.
But she still wanted to try.
If Shura or Ibara become one of the 'Top 10', she would ask them to request the World Government to resurrect Gozuchi.
Then she wouldn't need to risk seeking revenge against Minato Namikaze anymore...
"In other words, six people among the Top 16 will lose this qualification. They, along with the previous eighty-four contestants, will have no difference except for the prize money!"
Gaz's words caused Qin Su, Hank, Shura, and others who were already standing inside the court waiting, to feel their hearts sink.
"Now, let us announce the two contestants for the first Top 16 duel!"
As soon as his voice fell, large avatar frames and a list of names immediately appeared in the air inside the stadium.
Everyone could see the photos and names of the sixteen contestants rapidly switching inside.
This made the atmosphere at the scene increasingly tense as time passed.
Countless gazes were waiting for them to stop.
The next second, the result came out.
[Shura. Honest VS Lelei. La. Lalena]
"Look! It's 'Wild Hunt' from the Empire Arms World against the 'Magical Girl' from the Titan World!"
Gaz's enthusiastic and high-spirited voice echoed throughout the Multiverse Duel Arena, causing the entire audience to applaud and cheer.
"What a cute girl! Blue short hair, blue eyes, even the magic staff crystal in her hand is blue!"
"But is she really an adult?"
"Indeed, she feels so small. However, the 'Top 100 Competition' requires participants to be eighteen years old to register, so she must be an adult."
"Hmm, she probably just looks small. Compared to that, I'm more concerned about her identity as a mage."
While everyone was discussing animatedly, Lelei and Shura had already stepped into the duel arena from two different directions.
Previously, to hold fifty Swiss System matches simultaneously, many small courts were separated using Magic Barriers.
But today is the Elimination Round, and only one match will be held at a time, so their combat domain is much larger.
At least Doctor Tian Zhi's Umibōzu would find it difficult to flood the entire court with the water from its main body.
"I hope my age hasn't been exposed..."
Lelei walked while holding the magic wand in her hand, praying in her heart.
She is actually only sixteen years old this year. If counting by lunar age, she is barely seventeen, but definitely not eighteen.
But in order to participate in the Top 100 Competition, use the Star Gate Pass to return to Falmart World, and bring her Master's remains to Titan World for reburial.
She concealed her age, claiming she was exactly eighteen this year, just looking small.
To increase credibility, she specifically asked Magnus and Mimochaz, these two Sages, to testify for her.
Now, one of them is the Vice President of the Mage Association, and the other is an Archmage.
Therefore, the 'Competition Organizing Department' didn't have much scruple.
Fortunately, everything has been smooth so far, at least the Star Gate Pass is in hand.
Then, as long as she wins this duel and enters the Top 10, it's a sure thing.
Perhaps she could try requesting the World Government to resurrect Master Cato.
Although this kind of matter sounds incredible...
On the opposite side.
Shura was brazenly sizing up Lelei's petite body, his eyes openly revealing greed and lust.
"I never expected my opponent would be a beautiful little girl, and a mage at that..."
Shura licked his lips, a playful expression on his face, revealing a terrifying smile.
At the same time, an interesting idea arose in his heart: he wanted to tear all of her clothing here.
He figured this would definitely give her a memory she would never forget.
"What a disgusting gaze."
Lelei frowned, sensing Shura's ill intention. She was ready to teach him a harsh lesson.
At the same time.
Gaz had already finished introducing the origin of the two people in detail.
He tried his best to describe them as very powerful with his language, thereby further mobilizing the audience's interest.
Especially Lelei, the data given to him by the Competition Organizing Department clearly stated that she is the youngest Doctor of Magic in the history of Falmart World, and her strength is very likely to have reached the level of a 'Sage'.
If an Archmage is a Doctor of Magic among Doctors of Magic.
Then a 'Sage' is an Archmage among Archmages, the highest level mage in Falmart World.
The strength they control is second only to the gods of yesteryear, enough to rival demigods!
If that's truly the case, then Lelei is likely one of the strongest in this year's Top 100 Competition.
And she just turned eighteen this year!
As expected, most of the audience began to expect Lelei's performance.
Some of them had witnessed Lelei's combat during the previous Swiss System rounds.
That was truly an extremely magnificent magic feast, basically staying at the original spot the entire time!
What about this time?
Facing Shura, who is also one of the 'Top 16', can this Magical Girl still be so powerful?
"Then I hereby announce!"
"Combat begins!"
Gaz shouted loudly into the microphone: "Duel——————"
