At the center of the martial stage, behind Giltei, it was as if a sea of blood had emerged.
At the same time, the shadow of a violet tree appeared behind Saelil, with branches and leaves reaching toward the skies.
That was the power of cultivators from that universe. The power of the Void cultivated within their bodies could be externalized and form something called a *Manifestation*.

When both manifestations appeared, their range was still quite limited, initially only a few dozen meters wide. However, as time passed, they grew uncontrollably, spreading out even under the intense pressure coming from the arena.
All of this was happening on that special martial stage, located in the central arena, which was the most powerful one in the city.
