Just like Skyler, every single person in the land of winners waited for the results.

No one knew what this was all about, not even those who could communicate with the powerful higher beings. All they could do was wait for more information.

Far away, Zack’s silver eyes narrowed. He chuckled, and the small amount of trust he had in the Keeper of Time dissipated.

"Huh... dear master, I knew you were lying when you said these 3,000 thrones and the Supreme seat aren’t important. Perhaps a greater game is unfolding, and we are just pawns. Still, I won’t complain, as this new life of mine is becoming more thrilling."

His results flashed above the panel before his eyes, causing him to raise an eyebrow as it was the worst he had ever seen.

(Throne of Fire:

Likelihood of reaching it: +0.2%

Throne of Thunder:

Likelihood of reaching it: +0.1%

Throne of Weather:

Likelihood of reaching it: +0.2%

These are the thrones that aligns with you. The thrones and the likelihood can increase as you grow. The main system wishes you well on your journey and looks forward to your next visit to the land of winners.)

Zack noticed that, unlike the rest of the crowd, the barrier around him turned faintly silver, shining brighter than the others.

"Is +0.2% the best one can achieve? I’m very weak, so it’s not bad for a start. What about the protagonist? Which thrones align with him, and what likelihood does he have of reaching them? Haha, I already know!"

He looked around and noticed many other barriers turning silver in his surroundings. The barriers were very tall, so people could easily see them when their colors changed. Among them, one of the silver barriers was the brightest and shone the most.

"The brightest silver barrier belongs to the protagonist. As for the remaining, some of them belong to the main cast of the story, while others belong to stronger individuals from different universes or planets."

Zack muttered and shook his head. He was correct; the brightest silver barrier belonged to Max, who stared at his results in silence.

(Throne of Compassion:

Likelihood of reaching it: +5%

Throne of Kindness:

Likelihood of reaching it: +5%

Throne of Light:

Likelihood of reaching it: +5%

Throne of Chrono:

Likelihood of reaching it: +10%

These are the thrones that aligns with you. The thrones and the likelihood can increase as you grow. The main system wishes you well on your journey and looks forward to your next visit to the land of winners.)

Max rubbed his brows.

"The Goddess of Compassion told me I should focus solely on clearing the Battle Royal, and she would accept me as her only disciple at the right time. But I can tell that these thrones are what the higher beings are fighting for. So, it’s quite possible she intends to use me in the future."

He took a deep breath. He needs to be more cautious from now on. The Goddess has helped him, but he can’t fully trust her. So, he can’t reveal what he is seeing above the panel to her—at least not the truth.

Max looked around like those who were done examining their panel. But his eyes widened when he saw a golden barrier in the center of a few silver ones and many that were colorless. It was so clear and vivid, like a majestic pillar of gold that almost everyone could see it.

"Who is inside that barrier...? Why did only their barrier turn golden?"

Unlike Max, who reacted with shock yet remained calm, Zack’s mind short-circuited when he saw the golden barrier.

"The fuck....!"

He cursed under his breath, startled. In the story, a golden barrier never appeared in the land of winners! Not even the protagonist’s barrier turned golden. So, why the hell was such an anomaly happening so suddenly?

He always ensured that the story wouldn’t change due to his interference!

"Shit! Is this the butterfly effect because I changed the fate of many side characters? No, noooo! If someone stronger than Max appears, I’ll lose all my advantages! Keeper of Time, tell me who’s inside that barrier?!"

He called out abruptly, only to remember that the main system had cut off all higher beings from the land for the time being.

"Damn it!"

He nibbled his nails, fervently hoping that the individual in the golden barrier was from another universe altogether! That was the only thing that could grant him peace.

Jenny also saw the golden barrier. Her barrier was a pale shade of silver.

"A different color from all... does this indicate that the person in that golden barrier is the strongest or the weakest?"

Unbeknownst to everyone, even the main system was in a state of panic upon seeing the golden barrier. It had never encountered such outcomes before in a lower universe! If the higher beings discovered this, it knew many of them would descend solely to find and eliminate the occupant of the barrier!

That’s why the main system was relieved that no higher beings could peek inside the land of winners. It hurriedly dismissed the matter as an error since the highest rule of Battle Royal granted absolute privacy to those whose barrier turned golden.

Now, as long as the person within the golden barrier remained silent, no one would ever uncover what had transpired.

Unaware of the chaos his presence had caused, Skyler observed his results and erupted into an eerie laughter.

(The Sole Supreme Seat:

Skybound Throne:

Likelihood of reaching it: +1%

Due to the ’Special Spirit Constitution’, the Supreme Seat resonates with you. Because of this, if the participant aims for any of the remaining 3,000 Thrones, the likelihood of reaching them is 80%. The likelihood can increase as you grow.

The main system congratulates the esteemed participant, wishes you well on your journey, and eagerly anticipates your next visit to the land of winners.)

If only Zack could witness the polite and warm words of the main system, he would have coughed up a mouthful of blood from the stark contrast directed at everyone else and Skyler! But fortunately, he couldn’t.
