Hosts and notable roles

The tournament is hosted and run by the Ninecloud Court in Ninecloud City.

Northstrider appointed himself as the sole judge of the tournament, replacing a panel of independent experts from all around the world.

Significance

“This year’s tournament,” Akura Charity continued, “will be the largest in history.”

Wight, Will. Underlord (Cradle Book 6) . Hidden Gnome Publishing. Kindle Edition.

The 18th tournament is especially important following the unforeseen waking of the Bleeding Phoenix in Skysworn.

Since Fate has been disturbed, and the Dreadgods are showing signs of waking, all of the Monarch factions are working to take power from their rivals. The results of the tournament will decide the fate of the Blackflame Empire, among other nations.

Participating factions

There are eight factions, and each one has four teams.

The total number of participants is 96.

Ninecloud Court

  • Sha family team - Led by Sha Miara, the Ninecloud Monarch, who restricted herself to have the power of an Underlady so she could compete with her lessers.
  • Moonwater (Unconfirmed)
  • The rest of the teams are unknown.

Akura Clan

Eight-Man Empire

  • Ghost-Blade.
  • Flame-Gift.
  • Blood-Chorus.
  • Nine-Hands.

Northstrider

  • The Wastelanders - Ziel is the only confirmed member of the Beast King's team.
  • The rest of the teams are unknown.

House Arelius

Even though Tiberian Arelius has fallen, the Arelius were invited to participate in the tournament, since they are one of the oldest factions on Cradle.

  • Core family team - Veris Arelius, Altavian Arelius, and an unknown 3rd member.
  • The rest of the teams are unknown.

Emriss Silentborn

  • Dreadnought City.
  • The rest of the teams are unknown.

The Dragons

  • Gold dragons - Led by Sopharanatoth
  • Black dragons - Which included Naian Blackflame, the last descendant of the Blackflame family, first introduced as the 'Black Dragon Prisoner'.
  • Green dragons
  • Red dragons

A few teams were introduced without mentioning which faction they were part of:

  • Tidewalkers.
  • The Five Sisters of the Iceflower continent.
  • The Iron Heart Legion of Rosegold.

The tournament in Uncrowned

First Round

Second Round

Third Round

Fourth Round (Top 16)

Since there were exactly 16 participants remaining, Northstrider decided that the fourth round will be in the format of single-elimination matches, with the opponents selected by Northstrider himself:

  1. Ziel vs Therian Nills
  2. Eithan Arelius vs Yan Shoumei
  3. Yerin Arelius vs Akura Mercy
  4. Wei Shi Lindon Arelius vs Sopharanatoth
  5. ?
  6. ?
  7. ?
  8. ?

Only the first match of the round has taken place so far, with Lindon facing Yerin instead of Sophara, after Northstrider surprised them by switching opponents.

The match ends with Lindon losing, after Yerin had successfully achieved a reflection of the Sword Icon in their final clash of techniques.

Abidan intervention

After the Mad King acquired the false Scythe from the Angler, the Abidan intervened directly with Cradle and other Iterations in order to promote recruitment into their ranks.

In Cradle, the intervention took place immediately after the match between Lindon and Yerin.

All of the tournament participants and Monarch factions were teleported to the arena, and the spectators were teleported out.

Kiuran of the Hounds appeared before them all, encouraging the young participants not follow their Monarch ancestors and choose to ascend when their time comes.

He also introduced a new grand prize for the winner: Penance, a legendary weapon forged by the founder of House Arelius, Ozriel.
