The results were already evident, with Xiao Mo winning the first round.
Next came the second round, the trial of the Land of Fire, which tested courage. Simply put, if one did not possess exceptional courage.
Then what qualifications would they have to lead the entire God Realm?
In the end, one needed both willpower and outstanding personal courage. Only then would they be qualified to be the Lord of the God Realm.
The two were sent to the Land of Fire, where the magma flowed like a rolling tide.
In the next moment, it felt as though they would be scorched.
Having just endured the icy wastelands, they were now subjected to scorching heat, truly unbearable.
"Great Lord, it's incredibly hot! It's a stark contrast to the previous round. We finally achieved victory in the last stage, so what exactly does this round test?"
Although Xiao Mo was drenched in sweat.
He knew he had to maintain his composure this time.
Only by doing so could he find a flaw in this scorching heat surrounded by magma, and then achieve victory and pass the next stage.
He glanced around but found no weakness. Was this place meant to be a literal roasting pit?
Meanwhile, on the other side, the God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, had learned his lesson this time. Under no circumstances would he clash with the [Game Officials] again.
After all, he had suffered a loss last time.
That was why he lost the previous match.
If he lost this match as well.
The consequences would be dire!
"I can't believe such a mistake happened last time. I must be more cautious. Moreover, if I fail this competition, I won't have another chance."
That's right, this time he had to prove his strength.
Therefore, he did not summon his Immortal and Demon troops.
Perhaps this would even earn him bonus points!
He then began searching everywhere to discover what this round tested.
Finally, he found a clue.
The God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, saw a bow on the other side of the magma not far from him. Though the distance was considerable, it was faintly discernible.
Could it be that he was supposed to use this bow to shoot down the sun nearby?
But there were mirrors all around. Which sun was the real one?
Perhaps by shooting down the true sun, he would achieve victory.
He then calmly considered.
This time, he would not hesitate to use any means necessary to win, otherwise, this opportunity would be lost forever.
At that point, not to mention the Lord of the God Realm, it would undoubtedly be Xiao Mo's.
So, this time he went all out, disregarding whether he would catch fire!
He charged through the rolling magma, only to find that the magma did not burn him at all.
It seemed his courage had played a significant role this time.
He was truly astonished that he wasn't burning.
He had already prepared himself to be engulfed in flames.
Then he could have tried to extinguish the flames with ice balls.
To his surprise, he didn't catch fire. It seemed these flames were merely illusory.
Next, having obtained the Lava Bow, he had to find the true sun.
But with so many mirrors reflecting,
which one was the real sun?
If he shot down a fake sun, would the real sun disappear?
There were many problems before him, and the God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, was perplexed. What should he do?
Did he have to try them one by one?
But when would that end?
There were ten suns. If he made a mistake from the start.
Would there be a backlash?
He didn't have time to think much further. He closed his eyes tightly and, relying on his intuition, shot at the third sun from the left.
To his surprise, it was successful this time.
All the magma extinguished.
The God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, had actually succeeded in this match.
He didn't know why. Was it his commendable courage?
Or his extraordinary skill!
Regardless, the God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, won the second match.
The current score was one to one, with each person having won a match.
It was a tie.
Now, the supporters of both teams and the curious netizens were paying close attention, deciding that the next match would determine the ultimate victor.
That is, the ruler of the entire God Realm.
It seemed both individuals now had an equal chance of winning.
All the players were exhilarated.
"Hahaha! I knew it! The God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, is truly amazing. It seems he was holding back before, and this time he showed his true skill, directly defeating your Xiao Mo."
"I advise you not to get too excited. You've won one match, but our Xiao Mo also won the first match! And our boss won the preliminary round too. Don't celebrate too early, you know."
That's right, Xiao Mo had won the previous match.
And he had obtained the Thunder. It was unknown if that would provide any assistance.
Therefore, the members of both teams dared not celebrate too soon.
They all felt that the next match was crucial.
Only by winning the final match could victory be achieved.
Now, everyone was incredibly tense, watching the two men's competition as if they were experiencing it themselves.
After all, it concerned the fate of the entire God Realm.
If it fell into the hands of good people, the entire God Realm would be propelled to new heights.
Conversely, if it fell into the hands of those with ill intentions, one could only imagine the outcome!
"Great! I actually stumbled upon victory this time. In the next match, I will definitely win. Just wait and see! Xiao Mo, you are ultimately no match for me and will be trampled under my feet."
The God of Destruction, Tang Xiangxun, was overjoyed.
After all, he had won a match.
This meant he had a fifty percent chance of competing for the final victory against his opponent.
However, Xiao Mo did not show any displeasure.
Instead, he felt that his opponent was indeed capable.
He could be considered his rival. After all, in the last match, he hadn't expected to use his body to pass through the magma.
That was why he lost the final victory in this match.
The [Game Officials] appeared and announced the scores for the first and second rounds.
They also explained the reasons for each of their victories.
"Great Lords, you have both won one round each. Congratulations to you both!"
