Chapter 800: Your System Subscription Has Expired

Atlas continued staring at the battlefield, his tiny mouth hanging open in disbelief.

[GARION! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!]

Garion glanced at him before bursting into laughter. "HAHAHA! Atlas, are you stupid? Just think about it! You’ll figure it out later!"

Atlas’s eyebrow twitched violently.

[YOU BASTARD! THAT’S NOT AN ANSWER!]

Garion merely grinned, looking extremely pleased with his wife’s performance.

Meanwhile, Rachel stood calmly in the arena as golden lights descended upon the three eliminated candidates, transporting their bodies away.

WOOOOOM!

The enormous battlefield gradually disappeared, replaced by an endless golden void.

At the same time, a magnificent system panel appeared before every surviving candidate throughout the battlefield dimension.

---

[Trial of the Teacher - Completed!]

[Congratulations to All Successful Candidates!]

[Your Ability to Nurture and Develop Powerful Followers Has Been Successfully Evaluated.]

[Preparing for the Second Trial...]

---

However, just as the notification appeared, an extraordinary pressure suddenly descended upon the entire dimension.

BOOOOOOM!

The golden system panel trembled violently.

Countless divine runes appeared across its surface, only to disappear as an even more overwhelming authority seized control of the entire system.

Atlas immediately froze.

[This presence...!]

Before he could finish speaking, the golden panel changed.

Its previously mechanical announcements were replaced by cheerful, almost playful words.

The Creator of All Systems had personally taken control.

---

[Hello again, my adorable little candidates! Congratulations to everyone who survived the first trial!]

[Hehehe! I must say, some of you performed much better than expected, while others... well, let’s just say your disciples were rather disappointing!]

---

Across the battlefield dimension, countless surviving candidates stared at the notification with complicated expressions.

Some smiled proudly.

Others clenched their fists, remembering the companions they had lost.

But none dared interrupt.

---

[Anyway! The first trial was quite entertaining! I’ve already seen how well you’ve trained your followers, so there’s no need to keep testing that!]

[However, there’s still something I’m curious about...]

[Your own strength!]

[After all, having powerful followers is wonderful, but what about their masters?]

[Are you truly worthy of commanding them? Or are you just lucky bastards hiding behind stronger subordinates?]

---

Several candidates immediately frowned upon reading those words.

However, before anyone could react, the Creator continued.

---

[Which brings us to our second trial!]

---

[Second Trial - Trial of Domination!]

---

[Oh? You’re probably wondering why I called it the Trial of Domination instead of the Trial of Strength, aren’t you?]

[Hehehe! Well, you’ll understand in a moment!]

[I already know that everyone here possesses extraordinary abilities. After all, you wouldn’t have survived this long otherwise!]

[But raw strength alone isn’t everything!]

[Let’s see whether you truly have what it takes to dominate!]

---

The atmosphere throughout the golden void grew increasingly tense.

Some candidates began preparing their divine weapons.

Others immediately activated their defensive techniques, anticipating another terrifying battle.

However, the Creator seemed completely unconcerned.

---

[Now then! I won’t bore you with a long explanation!]

[The rules will be revealed once you arrive at your respective trial locations!]

[And remember, my dear candidates, this trial begins the moment you finish your first trial!]

[No additional preparation time! No waiting for the others! If you’ve already won, your second trial starts right now!]

[So, good luck! Try not to disappoint me!]

[Okay, bye-bye!]

---

[Creator’s Announcement Concluded.]

[Second Trial Initiated!]

[Preparing Candidate Transportation...]

---

The overwhelming presence suddenly vanished.

The golden system panel returned to its normal appearance, leaving countless candidates staring in disbelief.

On Garion’s observation platform, Atlas slowly rubbed his temples.

[That woman really enjoys throwing everyone into trouble without explaining anything!]

Garion chuckled before glancing toward the newly appearing transportation formations. "Hehehe! Well, looks like we’re going straight into the next trial!"

Just then, another notification appeared.

---

[Trial of Domination — Transportation Notice]

[All Qualified Candidates Will Be Transported Individually to Their Assigned Trial Locations.]

[Followers and Representatives Will Be Returned to Their Original Locations.]

[Candidates Will Receive Further Instructions Upon Arrival.]

[Transportation Commencing...]

---

Garion examined the notification before turning toward Rachel. "Hmm... Looks like we’ll be separated this time, huh?"

Rachel nodded gently. "It seems so, darling. This trial is probably intended specifically for system candidates."

She glanced at the approaching golden lights before smiling reassuringly. "Don’t worry about us. The system already said everyone else will be transported back."

Garion nodded. "Hehehe! That’s good, then!"

Rachel stepped closer and gently adjusted the collar of his clothing. "Still, darling, please be careful. We don’t know what kind of challenges the Creator has prepared."

Garion grinned confidently. "HAHAHA! Come on! You know me!"

Rachel gave him a knowing look. "That’s precisely why I’m worried."

Garion scratched his head awkwardly. "Hehehe... Fair enough!"

Rachel shook her head with a helpless smile before placing her hand against his chest. "Anyway, darling... Don’t you dare lose."

Her gentle voice carried an unmistakably firm warning.

Garion’s grin widened. "Hehehe! Of course! Your husband isn’t planning on losing to anyone!"

Rachel smiled affectionately. "Good. Then I’ll be waiting for you."

At that moment, brilliant golden pillars descended upon the observation platform.

WOOOOOM!

Rachel, Atlas, Dion, and the remaining God Gym representatives were gradually enveloped in warm golden light.

Atlas quickly looked toward Garion.

[HEY! DON’T DO ANYTHING STUPID WHILE I’M NOT AROUND!]

Garion burst into laughter. "HAHAHA! NO PROMISES!"

[YOU SHAMELESS BASTARD!]

With that final complaint, Atlas and the others disappeared.

Garion was left standing alone.

He glanced around the empty platform before slowly stretching his shoulders. "Hehehe... Alright!"

A massive golden formation suddenly appeared beneath his feet.

[Candidate Garion - Transportation Initiated.]

[Destination: Trial of Domination.]

Garion cracked his knuckles, his grin becoming increasingly excited. "Let’s see what this domination trial is all about!"

WOOOOOOOOOM!

The golden light swallowed his body.

And in the next instant, Garion vanished from the battlefield dimension.

---

Meanwhile, just as the surviving candidates were being transported to their second trial, another golden notification appeared before those who had failed.

However, unlike the previous announcements, this one carried the Creator’s familiar, cheerful tone.

---

[Oh, right! I almost forgot about you unfortunate losers! Hehehe!]

[Don’t worry, my dears! Just because you failed the first trial doesn’t mean you’re going to die!]

[I’m not that cruel, you know!]

[Well... most of the time! Ahahaha!]

---

The eliminated candidates immediately looked up, their expressions filled with disbelief and relief.

However, the next announcement quickly changed their expressions.

---

[Unfortunately, losing means your journey as a system candidate has officially ended!]

[Your systems will be permanently reclaimed, and you will no longer receive any missions, rewards, or special assistance!]

[But don’t worry! Everything you’ve already obtained through your systems will remain yours!]

[Your cultivation, abilities, physiques, bloodlines, treasures, and all other accumulated powers will not be taken away!]

[Only the systems themselves will disappear!]

[So, congratulations on surviving! You’re free to live however you wish from now on!]

[Just remember... your chance to inherit my true power is officially gone!]

[Hehehe! Better luck in your next life!]

[Bye-bye, losers!]

---

WOOOOOM!

Countless golden lights descended upon the eliminated candidates.

Their systems vanished one after another, leaving behind only the powers they had earned throughout their journeys.

And with that, their participation in the final competition officially came to an end.
