The moment the Sovereign War Domain activated, the entire battlefield inside the Heavenly War Domain changed dramatically. The once-open arena floating above the clouds became a sacred battlefield surrounded by the silent spirits of countless ancient warriors. Thousands of spectral soldiers stood along the edges of the arena, their armor glimmering faintly with golden light as they raised their weapons toward the sky.
Ancient war drums began echoing across the clouds.
Each beat resonated like thunder, shaking the battlefield itself.
Inside the Cloud Mist Internet Café, every cultivator leaned closer to the glowing screens.
No one spoke.
Because the battle they were witnessing was no longer simply a challenge.
It was a duel between kings.
Standing near the center of the hall, several disciples whispered nervously.
"That domain is terrifying."
"It feels like the battlefield itself is alive."
Nearby, Chen Yu narrowed his eyes as he studied the scene.
"The War Sovereign draws power from the battlefield."
Beside him, Yan Feng nodded slowly.
"That domain amplifies everything."
On the third-floor balcony, Long Wei leaned slightly forward, resting his arms against the railing.
His calm gaze remained fixed on the glowing screen.
"This is where the real battle begins."
Nearby, Mo Tian stood quietly.
His expression remained calm, but his eyes followed every movement of the fight with intense focus.
Inside the simulation, the War Sovereign stood at the center of the arena like an ancient ruler of war.
Golden lightning crackled across the sky behind him.
The enormous sword in his hand glowed with divine power.
Across the battlefield stood Han Jue.
His sword remained steady in his hand.
Despite the overwhelming pressure filling the battlefield, his posture remained calm.
The War Sovereign spoke again.
"You have crossed the gates of the battlefield."
His voice echoed across the sky like thunder rolling across distant mountains.
"But the throne of war…"
The massive sword slowly pointed toward Han Jue.
"…belongs only to those worthy of ruling it."
Han Jue raised his sword slightly.
"Then I'll take it."
Inside the café, Liu Kang burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! That kid is fearless!"
But before anyone else could react—
The War Sovereign moved.
His body vanished in a flash of golden light.
Inside the café, several cultivators gasped.
"He disappeared again!"
The next moment—
The golden sword appeared beside Han Jue.
The blade moved like lightning.
Han Jue raised his sword instantly.
The two weapons collided.
A violent shockwave exploded across the battlefield.
Golden energy and silver light clashed in the air.
The floating platform trembled under the force of the collision.
Inside the café, the watching cultivators shouted.
"That strike was insane!"
Inside the simulation, the War Sovereign attacked again.
His sword technique moved with flawless precision.
Every strike carried overwhelming force.
Every movement flowed perfectly into the next attack.
Han Jue moved through the battlefield like flowing water.
His sword parried the attacks again and again.
Standing near the screen, Chen Yu whispered quietly.
"The War Sovereign's technique is perfect."
Yan Feng nodded.
"There are no wasted movements."
Inside the simulation, the two warriors clashed across the arena.
Golden lightning flashed across the sky as their blades collided repeatedly.
Each impact created shockwaves that rippled across the battlefield.
The spectral soldiers surrounding the arena remained silent witnesses to the duel.
Standing behind the counter, Lin Tian watched the battle with calm interest.
Inside his mind, the system panel updated again.
High-Level Combat Detected
Realm Evolution Progress: 69%
Lin Tian smiled slightly.
"The system is evolving rapidly."
Inside the simulation, the War Sovereign suddenly stepped backward.
Golden energy surged across the battlefield.
The system warning appeared.
BOSS SKILL ACTIVATED
SOVEREIGN JUDGMENT
Inside the café, several cultivators shouted nervously.
"That's the same attack Mo Tian faced!"
Inside the simulation, the sky above the battlefield exploded with golden lightning.
The War Sovereign raised his sword high above his head.
Divine energy gathered along the blade.
Then—
He swung.
A massive wave of golden energy shot across the battlefield like a collapsing sun.
The attack covered the entire arena.
Inside the café, the watching cultivators gasped.
"That attack is unavoidable!"
But Han Jue moved.
His body shifted forward instead of retreating.
Inside the simulation, he stepped directly toward the incoming wave.
Standing behind the counter, Lin Tian raised an eyebrow slightly.
"He's confronting it head-on."
Han Jue's sword flashed.
Silver light erupted across the battlefield.
His blade cut directly into the golden wave.
For a brief moment—
The battlefield froze.
Then the two energies collided.
The explosion shook the entire arena.
Golden lightning and silver sword light filled the sky.
Inside the café, the screen flashed with blinding light.
Several cultivators covered their eyes.
When the light faded—
Two figures still stood in the center of the battlefield.
The War Sovereign's armor now showed faint cracks.
Han Jue's sword still pointed forward.
Inside the café, the watching cultivators erupted.
"He survived Sovereign Judgment!"
Standing on the third floor, Long Wei spoke quietly.
"He's stronger than we thought."
Beside him, Mo Tian remained silent.
But his calm gaze revealed something new.
Interest.
Inside the simulation, the War Sovereign slowly lowered his sword.
For the first time since the battle began—
He smiled.
"You are worthy of standing on this battlefield."
Golden lightning surged around him again.
The massive sword rose once more.
"But the throne…"
His glowing eyes locked onto Han Jue.
"…is not given easily."
Inside the Cloud Mist Internet Café, the watching cultivators leaned closer to the screens again.
Because the battle between Han Jue and the War Sovereign had only just begun.
And the final outcome of the Heavenly War Domain…
…was still far from decided.
