In the center of the Inner Ring, the battle between Luo Dan and the Nightmare Demon had reached a fever pitch when suddenly, seven Seventh Tier masters appeared behind the Nightmare Demon.
They surrounded the Nightmare Demon in a fan-shaped formation, poised for a pincer attack.
One of them turned to Luo Dan and said, "Your Holiness, the Pope, even though many barriers and conflicts exist between us, we are, and always will be, people of the Inner Ring.
"Since we are people of the Inner Ring, it is only natural that we do something for the Inner Ring.
"Perhaps some have not arrived tonight, but as a Seventh Tier of the Inner Ring, I have come."
"As have I!"
"Me too."
These Inner Ring Seventh Tiers echoed in agreement.
Luo Dan watched this and, looking up slightly, declared, "It seems the Inner Ring of today has not yet reached a point beyond redemption.
Since you are willing to fight alongside me, very well. We shall cooperate today and slay this monster!"
