A few thousand kilometers away from the shore of the Boundless Ocean, tens of thousands of people were engaged in fierce combat.
Most of the fighters were Rank One or below, with a handful at Rank Two—and the strongest among them barely at the beginner level of Rank Three.
All of them were demons and dragons, though a closer look would reveal a number of vampires scattered among the ranks, fighting against demons and supporting the dragons.

A mid-level Rank Two male dragon with two crystal-like horns was currently engaged in battle with a beginner-level Rank Two blood demon.
The demon's body was riddled with wounds, and blood flowed freely, soaking his already tattered clothes.
The crystal dragon grinned at the demon, and with a casual wave of his hand, hundreds of crystalline bullets shot forth like a hailstorm.
