At the arena when the people saw the giant ball that was filled with mana and blood, most of them started to panic. They could sense an immense power coming from that giant ball in the sky.
The mages felt some powerful force oppressing their control of mana. The warriors felt a heavy pressure descend upon them it was as if a mountain had come crashing down on them, even the mighty young dragons above the skies were restless and started roaring. The normal citizens were already on the ground unable to move some of them even fainted.
It was at this point in time the wives of the Emperor took action. Silika and Tsukiyomi erected a barrier that stopped the unknown aura from harming the people in the arena. Once the barrier was set up, the pressure on the people disappeared.
