Chapter 213: Mid-Rank Ruler
His outcry resounded throughout the sky, and at almost the same time, Sem and Neko activated the Crimson Inferno formation with lightning-like speed.
At the very moment, the C-rank battle masters crashed into the mana wall that appeared with the activation of the Crimson Inferno Formation, separating them from Whittaker. The mana wall acted as a square-shaped confinement array that trapped them all within.
"This was a trap!" A C-rank battle master shouted but his shout was deafened by the eruption of the ground below their feet.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The Crimson Inferno formation true might was revealed.
"Oh no! This is the crimson Inferno Formation!"
"It looks like this is the end for all of us!"
Terrifying Flame pillars charged to the clouds from all directions and started condensing into one mighty Red Dragon. The mighty fiery aura of the Flames caused the hearts of the members of the Blood Oracle Guild to tremble. They repeatedly regretted that they charge in the ravine. But now nothing could be done. They would most likely perish in the face of such a violent offensive formation.
Alex's face turned gloomy and he was burning with fury. The Crimson Inferno Formation was too powerful. It could even exhaust an A-rank battle master to death, what were they before it. They couldn't even run away from it because they were trapped inside a powerful confinement formation.
'It is all because the group did not listen to me,' he thought.
"Damn it all! I said that it is a trap but none of you listened!–" Alex shouted but he was cut short from saying anything by the leader of the group, Chaum.
"Why are you saying so much nonsense to them? All C-rank battle masters of the Blood Oracle Guild listen up, use your battle energy to create the Golden Serpent Formation! The rest of you try to dish out as many attacks as you can to break a mana wall so that we can escape. We won't give up without a fight!" Chaim shouted.
Chaim and Alex were war veterans who participated in Realm wars. They have been taught several Man-Made formation techniques and the one they could use in their current situation is the Golden Serpent Formation!
Hearing his words, Alex and the other member's eyes lit up in hope.
"Yes, Boss!"
The four C-rank battle masters including Alex stood beside Chaim with boosted morale and cold faces. They intended to battle until death. Whereas, the D-rank mages and battle masters started using their offensive spell and skills respectively on a single mana wall to shatter it.
"Nothing less expected from the maniacs of the Blood Oracle Guild but this resistance is futile!" Sem said that as he saw the five C-rank battle masters releasing battle energy their bodies. It swiftly gathered into a 10 meter Serpent above their head. Golden light flashed. Finally, it turned into a 100 meter large Serpent brimming with battle energy. The battle pressure caused the land to tremble.
Such man-made formations were commonly used in Realm Wars.
"Wow!" Whittaker felt amazed by this and he couldn't help but keep on looking. He couldn't do anything else, after all, except witness how the fight goes.
"Go! Burn everything to ashes!" The moment the flames condensed into a Red Dragon appeared, Sem ruthlessly commanded it to annihilate whatever was confined inside the formation. With blazing eyes, the Flaming Red Dragon rushed towards the members of the Blood Oracle Guild!
Monstrous flames immediately surged downwards. The power behind this attack was enough to incinerate this entire ravine.
"Golden Serpent, Devouring Dragon Destiny!"
The five C-rank Battle Masters shouted after the enemy's Crimson Inferno formation made its attack.
Rays of light flowed out of the 100 meters large Golden Serpent as it heroically moved upwards and clashed with the Red Dragon.
Boom!
The clash caused an eruption. The whole ravine intensely trembled because of the clash. The land cracked, forming spider-like cracks that extended as the clash continued producing intense fluctuations of battle energy and flames.
Bang! Under the Red Dragon Might, the Golden Serpent exploded. And the flames from the dragon turned into a rolling sea of fire that swept towards Chaim, Alex, and the group.
The flames enveloped everything. The ground, members of the Blood Oracle Guild and even most of the cliff.
Everything began to melt.
The D-rank battle master and the C-rank Battle master exhausted of all battle energy died immediately as they have no protective measures. While the mages used mana barriers to bear the frontal brunt of the flames. However, in mere seconds their remaining mana was used up and they became defenseless.
What followed was their immediate death!
Whittaker watched it all from afar, and he remembered the saying:
When the Red Dragon rises, it leaves behind death and destruction in its wake…
Although they tried their best, the Blood Oracles Members died.

"Hooray!" Whittaker heard these words and cheered in happiness. To become a mid-rank ruler, a contestant needed a title. A title granted superpowers to the ruler inside the tower. Now, he got one such title!
Sem and Neko stepped out of their hiding spot and met up with Whittaker.
"Congratulations!" They said.
"Thanks. It's all because the Crimson Inferno formation was more impressive than the man-made Golden Serpent Formation!" Whittaker replied with a happy smile.
