As perplexion and confusion spread among the hearts of many, a change finally occurred as within the star that the one calling himself the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor was in, a brilliant red light shone out as it signified the other opponent.

At this moment, the contender to appear within the star was chosen!

The appearance of the opponent to the unranked Tyrannical Dragon Emperor caused many people to drop their drinks and cause the food in their mouths to fall out.

This was because...the difference between their ranks was so vast that they thought they were seeing things wrongly!

[ 999 :: Sun Devourer, Radaz- Scorched Universe]

…!

For the first battle of this unranked contender, he was somehow fighting against a being that was within the top 1000 of all the Great Sages that had participated in the Slaughter Star Monolith since its conception!

"What..!"

"This…!"

The top 1000 of all Great Sages that had entered the Universal Construct…

Did one truly grasp what that meant? What level of strength such beings had? How far they excelled among those on the same level?!

Ah!

When matched within the Slaughter Star Monolith, beings would be placed against those around the same rankings as them!

An unranked contender would normally be matched against another unranked or a being ranked in the millions.

Yet…!

"Holy shit…"

"The Sun Devourer!"

RUMBLE

The opponent of the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor revealed itself as it was a beast made entirely of scorching sunlight, its limbs seeming like Clusters of magma as it looked towards the Tyrant Dragon in front of it fearlessly.

This was because on the body of the Sun Devourer, one could distinctly see the manifested Galaxies that numbered...over 40 Billion!

40 Billion forged Galaxies!

A being truly at the peak of the Great Sage as just 10 billion more galaxies...and he would become a Monarch.

"Now this will just be a massacre…"

A consensus spread out amongst all those watching as they shook their heads at either the extremely back luck or something else they didn't know as they watched the battle of an unranked Great Sage and one that was within the 1000 strongest out of the many Universes that the Slaughter Star Monolith stretched to!

---

The Sun Devourer glanced at its prey in disdain.

It had lived for over 300,000 years and devoured countless suns, its strength being enhanced to the point where it had been capable of nearly forging the required Galaxies to reach the rank of a Monarch!

All it needed...was to comprehend and assimilate more Daos to forge his galaxies even faster. For this to happen... its soul had to continue being strengthened and baptized by the enemies it faced and defeated within the Monolith!

And the opponent he faced at this time...didn't seem to be anything much as for the number of Galaxies forged...it only seemed to be less than 10 Billion!

Against a being such as him that neared the rank of a Monarch, what could this little dragon in front of him do?

THRUM!

The Sun Devourer that was made entirely of light bellowed out as the temperature of the area increased to a frightening degree, the sky seemingly melting from the sheer pressure of this Beast alone!

"Ah…"

The Sages and Great Sages watching shook their eyes at the sight of the Sun Devourer's power as they pitied the Dragon that was staying still, maybe even possibly frozen in fear under their eyes.

"A creature born from a Sun that is as large as a Galaxy from the Scorched Universe...even normal peak Great Sages aren't a match for him!"

"This is just…"

Sighs and ridicules could be heard all around as in response to the fearsome pressure being released by the Sun Devourer, the one that labeled himself as the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor opened its draconic jaws and called out a single word that rang out clearly in the ears of all those paying attention to his red star.

"[Fireball]."

RUMBLE….BRRRRRRRRRR!

The space around the jaws trembled before intensely scorching miniaturized suns began to materialize, and they materialized so quickly while shooting towards the Sun Scorcher like innumerable bullets!

The miniaturized suns were intensely golden as within, there was a terrifying glimmer of red that represented an essence others would never guess!

"This guy...used a flame based skill against the Sun Devourer?"

Many looked at the scene incredulously as the barreling miniaturized suns reached the body of the Sun Devourer in an instant...and this creature had a look full of contempt as it opened its huge jaws and devoured the miniaturized suns as they came.

BRRRRR!

Tens of suns tinged with an essence that even Universal Hegemonies feared were actually devoured by this creature, the scene settling down as the crimson color the Sun Devourer released seemed to become even more pronounced!

It looked towards the Tyrant Dragon with utter arrogance as it voiced out while beginning to move.

"Stupid lizard, let me barbecue you and show what flames really are!"

RUMBLE!

The Sun Devourer majestically went towards Noah with a body brimming with power, and yet in the next second, his body came to a stop in mid air as his expression rapidly changed.

From arrogant and excited to shocked, and then to utter fear and despair!

Its expression changed very quickly as it sensed from the terrifying suns this being threw towards it and it devoured...their essence had corroded his origin in nearly an instant as a terrifying red essence now covered all of his forged Galaxies...with his origin being annihilated before he could even do anything!

"You…!"

His look of shock and despair landed on the Dragon as for the first time since it appeared within the star, the Sun Devourer ranked at 999 of all of the powerful Great Sages within the Slaughter Star Monolith really looked towards the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor.

It noticed a domineering gaze of utter confidence and strength, of a devilish smile on its draconic head that looked towards it like a prey this entire time!

BZZZZZT!

To the shock of all those watching and even himself, the body of the Sun Devourer that was shooting out came to a stop, despaired, and then...exploded out into a shower of bloody flames a second later.

"..."

A glorious red light of slaughter shone a second later to proclaim the victor of the match!

…!
