Although the Sin Demons had yet to officially threaten Foundation City, Monroe had discussed with her advisors and ministers not long after the Round Table Conference and quickly established a relevant organization just in case.
The new organization was called Sin Hunters. All members of the organization would be Demon Hunters, and the Demon Hunters would be the ones who would take care of the Sin Hunters.
The current leader of the Sin Hunters would be Saber, the captain of the city defense force. Since Saber was going to be a Demon Hunter, he had to lead by example and fuse with the Sin Hunters.
Freud was planning to give Saber the Snake-Tail Worm so that he could fuse with it.
However, Angor soon gave up on the idea.
The Snake-Tail Worm was a Sin Demon that focused on speed. When it fused with Cell, the Snake-Tail Worm increased Cell's speed to the point where it could not be seen with the naked eye. Saber, on the other hand, did not care about speed at all. He preferred to fight like a flawless shield. If he had to fuse with the Snake-Tail Worm Worm, he would have to give up on his own strength and build a new fighting style that focused on speed.
That was not necessary.
Therefore, it was better to give Saber a Sin Demon that was suitable for his current ability.
However, Sin Demons had too many abilities, each of which had their own uses. It would not be easy to find a suitable one.
Angor and Freud stayed near the black mist and began to analyze the Sin Demons.
Angor stayed in the dream wasteland for two more days before returning to reality.
Sunders told him that Horus would hold a small wizard exchange meeting in the evening. Not only could the meeting broaden one's social network, but it could also help him find out what he lacked in the process of communicating with other wizards. For a wizard who just became a wizard, this kind of meeting was definitely beneficial without any harm.
According to Sunders' speculation, Horus did not mention anything about the meeting, but it was likely that the meeting was held for Angor's sake. After all, someone as powerful as Horus did not need to attend such a meeting unless he wanted to trade something.
If Angor did not go, he would be wasting Horus's effort.
Of course, Angor would go for something that would only bring him benefits and no harm.
That night, Angor went to Brute Cavern's temporary headquarters in Floating Mech City to participate in the meeting, which was very rewarding for him.
Sunders was right. The meeting was all about Angor. Every time he asked a question, he would get the answer almost immediately. Even if Angor did not ask, someone else would take the initiative to ask.
Horus also talked about some of the core topics, such as the accumulation of knowledge needed to break through to a truth-finder wizard. And how to deal with the obstacles after crossing the threshold.
Angor wasn't a truth-finder wizard yet, but he already had one foot on the path of becoming one. The only reason he didn't make it was because he didn't have enough experience yet.
Sunders would tell him the same thing, but Horus explained it in a different way, which could broaden his horizons.
Angor was the biggest winner of the night.
After the meeting, the group of Magi began to trade items and exchange information. There were also wizards who invited him to explore some ruins. Even Angor was invited to join them.
Angor was quite interested in exploring unknown ruins. According to them, the ruins were a laboratory left behind by an ancient wizard. Maybe he could find something related to alchemy, such as books, potions, tools, etc., which could help him learn something about the ancient wizarding world.
However, Angor had too many things to do right now, so he decided to decline.
After the meeting, Angor walked out of Brute Cavern's base and stretched his body. Then, he saw the Tower of Infinity not far from him.
Even at night, the Tower of Infinity was still bustling with people. Under the cover of the night, the body of the Tower of Infinity glowed brightly as if it was dyed with neon lights.
Looking at the Tower of Infinity, Angor thought about the Rising Star Competition.
The semi-finals of the Rising Star Competition were over, and the ranking matches were about to begin.
This wasn't the final match. Rather, it was the same as the semi-finals.
The ranking matches would only show the top 100 contestants. The higher the rank, the better the rewards would be.
In this stage, there were almost no weaklings, so every match was very exciting. Many people who didn't watch the preliminaries and semi-finals would choose to watch the ranking matches at this time. This was why the Tower of Infinity was so popular today.
Angor only needed to judge ten matches. He had already judged nine matches before, and the last one would be reserved for the final match. Of course, if someone from Fragrant Pavilion was participating in a match, Angor would be willing to support them as a friend.
With that in mind, Angor took out his transmitter to check the recent matches and see if there were any familiar faces.
However, he didn't find anyone.
He read the message left by the Tower of Infinity's judge and finally understood what was going on.
The rules of the ranking matches had changed. The judges of the Tower of Infinity would determine a preliminary ranking for each contestant based on their previous matches. The top 100 contestants would have one chance to challenge someone with a higher rank. If they won, they would get another chance. However, if they lost, they would not be able to challenge anyone else. They would have to keep their current ranking and accept other challenges.
The top 16 contestants would not participate in the ranking matches.
The top 16 contestants were all winners of the semi-finals, and they would compete for the championship of the Rising Star Competition.
Contestants ranked between 16 and 100 were the main forces of the ranking matches.
These were the general rules, but there were also many details. For example, to prevent cheating, the number of times a contestant could accept a challenge, and the rules for multiple challengers to challenge the same contestant. There were also judges who would evaluate the cases of cheating.
Because of this, there were more variables. Each contestant only had one chance to challenge someone at the beginning, so they had to choose their opponent carefully. Therefore, it was difficult to find out who was going to challenge whom, and the details of the matches.
Only by going to the Tower of Infinity and watching the matches on the screen could he get first-hand information.
Of course, there were also information peddlers, but Angor couldn't find them yet.
Angor considered for a moment and decided to go to Fragrant Tavern. Since he didn't know who was going to challenge whom, he might as well ask them directly.
It had been a while since he went to Fangling Pavilion.
On his way to Champagne Road, he took a look at the current ranking system. He didn't know how the contestants were doing, but the changes in the rankings were clear.
The rankings only showed the top 100 contestants, and Sailum's name was the first one he saw.
Sailum failed in the semi-finals and didn't make it to the finals, but he could still join the ranking matches.
Sailum's performance in the match against Xili had shocked the audience. His original ranking was 31st, which was very high.
However, his ranking kept falling after he entered the ranking matches, which meant many contestants were challenging him.
Dark Codex was still asleep, so Sailum's individual strength was not as good as the others.
If not for the challenge restrictions, Sailum would have fallen out of the top 100 already. However, due to the limitation of the challenge and the fact that there were only two days left until the end of the ranking matches, Sailum should still be around the 60th rank.
Nausica was 98th. She failed in her previous challenge, but she hadn't been challenged yet, so her ranking was probably around 98th.
Dave wasn't on the list. After all, he met Carveline in the second semi-final match, which meant he was destined to stay with Jack Sue for ten years.
As for Shan, she didn't even make it to the semi-finals, so she wouldn't be on the list.
Shiliew had the highest ranking in Fragrant Tavern. She was 15th, which meant she was a finalist. The ranking matches had nothing to do with her.
