"That is great . If someone doesn't want to participate in the competition, please tell it now . Although I will send everyone to relatively safe spots, in an enemy territory, there is no way I can say there is an absolutely safe spot . "

Everyone was in silence again . What Shiba said had socked them, but it was what Yale said what made them realize that it wasn't impossible that their disciples would die just after arriving at the Sealed Universe .

The Sealed Universe was the territory of their enemies, so anywhere could be considered dangerous to the lives of their disciples .

"Wait . Given your relationship with the disciples on your group, I can't believe you don't have some safety measure . "

The moderator knew very well that Yale wasn't a person that would sacrifice family and friends for power . Although he didn't doubt that Yale was heartless when facing his enemies, his personality was completely opposite when he was dealing with his friends .

"I can bring them out at the moment I consider they are in danger, but if I need to wait for someone else telling me to bring them out, I can't be sure of making it in time, and I don't want to be blamed if they die . "

Yale understood the meaning of the previous question . The moderator wanted him to bring everyone out if they were in danger, but that would make him responsible for their lives, and he didn't want such a burden .

"Then, take then out whenever you consider, don't wait for instructions . No responsibility if you fail . Has anyone any complain about this?"

Although the moderator spoke about it as if it was a minor matter, he knew it wasn't .

Basically, Yale wanted the authority to decide when to bring the disciples out at any moment . He would just need to say that he felt danger, and no one would be able to complain even if they lost the chance to continue participating in the competition .

The moderator didn't believe that yale wouldn't bring out those near to steal the first place from him at the slightest danger .

Yale's group was far ahead of others from the start due to the information about the permanent deaths, but with that rule, the moderator felt that it was like if Yale was saying that no one was allowed to surpass him or it would be the end for them in the competition .

However, Yale's cooperation was crucial for the safety of the disciples, so the moderator needed to agree . It wasn't easy to groom a disciple, so no one wanted them to die pointlessly .

If it was about resurrecting them, they could ask about that latter if they needed, but the situation with permanent death made that saving them was a top priority .

The others didn't complain about what the moderator said . Most of them understood perfectly what it implied, but Yale had the full control of the situation, and fighting back was simply stupid given the situation .

The moderator felt that he had gifted everything he planned to Yale and that surpassing Yale's group would be almost impossible, but he still felt that his group might have luck if they were sent to a better spot than Yale's group, but after a second he noticed he was too naive .

Since Yale mentioned relatively safe spots, it meant that he knew the terrain well-enough, so he didn't believe that Yale didn't know the best places and send the disciples of his group there .

There was no way Yale could send the disciples at random since he would send them to the safest spots possible, and he would never swear that he wouldn't be biased when doing it since it was too easy to unconsciously favor your own group .

Moreover, Yale was the only one that could bring the disciples in and out without problems, so the others couldn't prevent that he moved the disciples as he wished .

The moderator had planned the competition with others to have an advantage, and even the matter about making groups was still inside his expectations, but Yale managed to steal all the advantages of the competition .

He felt that all of his hard work just served to benefit Yale and his group, and he regretted not telling the Time Faction everything after the meeting . If he had spoken with them from the start instead of having them discover everything by their own means, he didn't feel that the situation would be the same .

He sighed as he decided that it was wiser to aim for second place than competing directly with Yale's group . His plotting had backfired completely despite the safety measures to not offend the Time Faction completely . In fact, it was thanks to the safety measures that Yale hadn't acted against him personally .

Yale didn't speak again as he opened the passageway to the Sealed Universe . As the moderator imagined, he planned to send his group the best place .

A lot of members of the Council of Groups had given up . In the end, only six groups were remaining .

The others knew that obtaining the first place would be almost impossible, and they didn't believe that Yale would save their disciples if, at the same moment, someone of his group needed help .

They valued their disciples enough to not let their lives at the hands of others .

All the fans of Barha had also retired because as long as Barha was at the top, they didn't mind being given orders . They just planned to participate to obtain a good position in case Barha couldn't, so that they could protect her, but it was easy to see that Barha's group would be at the top after seeing Yale's actions .

It was pretty scary how powerful Great Gods and True Gods had fallen prey to Barha's cuteness to the point they didn't mind about anything else as long as Barha was happy .

When Yale saw them retire with such a bright smile on their faces while they looked at Barha, he had the feeling that Barha didn't need to worry about if her plushies would sell or not . Probably, they would be sold out in minutes with such a crazy club of fans .

Of the six groups, two of them were fully made of hidden allies of the Time Faction . They trusted in Yale, so they didn't retreat .

Of the other three, one was the group of the moderator, who at least wanted to obtain a good position to not let Yale's group decide everyone on their own .

The other two also had their own ambitions and didn't want to be controlled by others, even if that meant taking some risk .

Moreover, obtaining information was important for the war, so they convinced themselves that they were doing the best .

In fact, Yale had more information than what all the others could obtain, so the competition was useless for anything that wasn't deciding the hierarchy .

However, having full control of the Council of Gods was enough to make Yale participate in the competition . An organization he could control was more useful than one he couldn't .

"You all . Listen well . I will send you to a planet under the jurisdiction of Pavel, the first disciple of Lesta, one of the two big bosses of the Sealed Universe . That planet is extremely huge, and it is also Pavel's main base of operations . However, right now, Pavel isn't there and won't return for a while, so this is a big chance . Pavel is a Great God, but Lesta is a True God, so if I notice that they come back together, I will bring you out . "

Yale didn't hide his voice because he wanted the others to hear him . He was shamelessly telling them that he had so much information that the competition was worthless from the start, but none of the groups participating retreated for it .

The six groups crossed the passageway, but no one noticed that Yale had hidden an incarnation on Shiba's shadow .

Pavel wasn't there, but that didn't mean that the planet was empty of enemies, so he sent the incarnation as a little insurance .

"Yale, can you tell us everything you discovered . At this point, I feel that is stupid waiting for your disciple to make as if he discovers it and tell us slowly . If your information is enough, we can let them play a bit and take them back soon . As long as we can decide an order for the six groups, it is alright, there is no need to make everything longer than needed . "

Once the moderator knew that at worst, his group would be the sixth with most part of the Council of Gods still under him, he decided to ask directly for the information .

If he did it before, maybe more groups would have participated, lowering his own position .

"As long as you give points for the competition to my group, I can speak . After all, a Sealed Universe isn't capable of stopping me from entering even with forbidden access to members of the Council of Gods . "

The moderator knew that Yale wouldn't agree without extorting more points, but at that point, he didn't care since he already felt that it would be impossible surpassing Yale's group anyway .

Moreover, once Yale confirmed that he could go there personally, everyone understood that most probably he already did it and gathered a lot of information .

They weren't even aware of the names of Lesta and Pavel . The Sealed Universe was a complete mystery for them .
