I am an Eldritch Entity

Of the four people Edward, Eryndor and Syndra were fighting, one was at eighth stage of Qi Gathering realm, while the other three were at third, fifth and sixth stage of Mana Novice, Blood Initiate and Beast Seeker realm respectively.

Edward handled the two strongest ones, while Syndra handled the guy at the fifth stage of Blood Initiate realm, the first level of the demon power system.

It couldn't even be said to be a fight as Eryndor defeated the third stage guy of Mana Novice realm within two seconds.

He didn't have any overpowered spell model like Paulina.

When Eryndor made a chop at the guy's neck, he dissolved into white light before his hand could even connect.

He was eliminated huh.

On Edward's side, he had successfully eliminated the cultivator, and was currently attacking the panther shaped beast of the guy walking on the Beast Tamer power system.

When Eryndor rushed to reinforce Syndra, the demon path guy finally spoke.

"Spare us! We won't go after you anymore!"

Eryndor ignored his words, sending a lightning based Sky Piercing Palm at him.

The guy quickly dodged it, and also managed to roll away from Syndra's sword strike.

He didn't stop running his mouth though.

"Ahh fuckers! Team Jonathan won't leave you alone if you decide not to spare us! We'll haunt you! We'll bring in more teams to chase you to the ends of this realm!"

Eryndor scowled as he smashed his spiked mace on that guy's face.

Calculating that it would result in a serious injury or even death, the artifact automatically protected him, dissolving him into white light and teleporting him out.

He was eliminated from the tournament as well.

Just in time, Eryndor also saw Edward taking out the last guy.

He faced the two of them, then glanced at his left where Valentina, Paulina and Drakarion had arrived at some point.

Eryndor didn't say anything but began jogging in another direction while he began speaking.

"It's Team Jonathan. They probably have more than two teams under them.

"If y'all don't remember, it's the team which is currently ranked sixth."

Eryndor then looked at Edward and Syndra.

"Did you both check your points? Notice how we haven't got a lot. Barely a few hundred."

Both of them nodded their heads with serious expressions.

Paulina immediately understood what Eryndor was getting at.

"Do you mean Team Jonathan are employing these teams like some kind of workers?

"They search for students and beasts, and gather them or even injure them, only for the main Team Jonathan to defeat them and get the points.

"Is that it?"

Eryndor nodded, and looked at his extended vision, where six more unfamiliar people had entered his range.

"Can you show me how Jonathan looks? I took a look before the tournament began but my memory has gone hazy.

"Six more people entered my range, Jonathan might be one of them."

Drakarion pulled up his phone and showed him the image, which Eryndor quickly compared to everyone in his range.

Huh? None of them look like Jonathan.

Eryndor then noticed that the new team of six people which had entered his range had come face to face with one of the four person team left.

However, instead of joining amicably, the six person team chased the four person one, which were swiftly eliminated.

The last four person team seemed to have sensed the demise of both four person teams, as they quickly retreated in another direction.

Thinking of something, he asked for Team Irene's portrait.

It matches the new six person team which entered my range.

Eryndor had a slight idea what was going on.

He explained to his team.

"Team Irene has just entered my range, and they also eliminated one of the team of four students.

"I think Team Jonathan has also targeted this team, but just like us, they must've managed to escape.

"Now they are eliminating all the teams which are working under Team Jonathan.

"Do you think we should join hands with them?

"We've been targeted by Team Jonathan as well. Although I can keep us away from danger, it would hinder us from killing beasts.

"A better option would be to eliminate Team Jonathan so we can gather points without any obstacles.

"Unfortunately, we don't know how many teams they have under them or any other information at all.

"If we join hands with Team Irene, there's a higher possibility that we can counterattack."

Edward narrowed his eyes.

"I mean, if what you said is true, then it is certainly not an issue to join hands with them.

"But the problem is that our point gathering speed would further slow down with two teams moving together."

Valentina stroked the head of Yang as she said.

"Then we just need to be fast enough to take out Team Jonathan, so that we don't waste enough time in this state of cooperation with Team Irene."

Eryndor looked around for more opinions, but there was none, so he looked at Edward.

"Could you look for an item in the Support Shrine which will help in cooperation?"

Everyone understood what Eryndor was getting at.

Even if they decided to join hands with Team Irene, what guarantee was there that those people wouldn't turn their back on them?

They needed to have some form of guarantee so the two teams could cooperate without any worries and take out Team Jonathan.

Edward agreed to the request, but he looked at Drakarion and said.

"Drakarion, you come with me too. I am directionally challenged, so I might get lost."

The young man nodded, but said.

"Didn't you once go out alone to experiment about that pit thing for our beast horde battle?"

Edward chuckled and answered.

"I didn't wander too far out back then, and I only walked in a straight line, so it was easy."

As the two of them left, Eryndor explained.

"I couldn't have gone this time, I have to stay back for safety."

Now they just had to wait for things to proceed further.
