Chapter 717: Chapter 717. Entering The Ancient Battleground With A Full Team

Using mana manipulation technique could be very tiring even when the technique was executed poorly. Jack felt great fatigue after a few slashes. He couldn't train much during the short wait. He ended up training more in doing simple mana manipulation by meditation. The time went by quickly, after almost three hours passed since the end of the bonus match, Jack told everyone it was time to leave. The nine went to the Temple of Courage. The knights guarding the entrance to the temple scrutinized the lot when they approached. Paytowin was just about to produce his badge when one of the knights said, "Go in. The divine priest is waiting." The nine then proceeded inside. They went directly to the hall where the ancient battleground device was located. In the hall, three people were waiting. Callan, Pallas, and Mihos. The nine greeted each of them politely, even to Mihos. Despite Mihos looking young, his mythical-grade status commanded respect.

"Good, everybody is here. Pallas, start the device," Callan instructed. Pallas obeyed the instruction and worked the device. A portal soon appeared.
