After much debating on the matter, Jin had finally started making the Martial Arts and Sports Competition Service Instance. After much consideration, he figured that he should still make the competition a little more unique than usual.

Surely, he could make a stadium like he had done for the Demon Exorcist School Instance but that would be a little boring. Not to mention, there was almost nothing to show other than just a grand scale of a stadium that the audience would be in.

He had already made a variety of stadiums ever since the inception of the Dungeon Supplier store so Jin probably had exhausted his ideas when it came to the setting of a stadium. Surely, he could put it behind a huge screen but to be able to watch it live always had this exhilarating feeling that could not be felt behind that screen.

So, instead of making a pompous kind of seating arrangement, he had decided to make it more theme based according to the match set that he was about to create. This provided even more creativity for him as he was going to use the match's theme to set the mood of the stadium's environment.

Jin decided to do simple ones first and as such, he had begun with a desert environment fight. The scorching rays of heat and the high temperature would be regulated and directed at the centre portion of the stadium. The rest of the audience seats would not experience such conditions and rather, they would be blown with cool regulated air. If the guests in the front row would put their hands over the rails, they could literally feel heaven and hell when it comes to the temperature control.

This was the beauty of creating the stadium within the Dimensional Instance and Jin knew that he could utilise this instance creation better than any other dungeon suppliers on this particular planet. The fights would be fought in that scorching heat while the stadium had been decorated similarly to the ancient Arabic Kingdom. Instead of chairs, seats were given with adjustable (but not removable) pillows and all sorts of rugs were placed all over the stadium.

It might look messy from a glance but there was actually order in that disorder. The sizes, colours and even quality of the rugs corresponded appropriately to the amount that each guest would be paying. The edges of the stadium were also baked with white walls with Islamic wall cravings. But this was not the end of the Arabic theme that Jin had made.

The first few matches of this theme would no doubt be in the dry desert sand but when the qualifiers were over, Jin had prepared several environmental 'obstacles' to ensure that the scorching desert was not the only thing that the martial artists would have to handle.

Jin might have been a pioneer when he created the next stage of the desert theme. Because when both of Martial Artists were to move in a single direction, the stage would not be static at all. Instead, the stage would move along with them as well. This means that the stage was a fluid arena where it could take them from a plain empty desert to 'somewhere else' and their fight could happen in a desert village instead.

NPCs had also been inserted where they would continue with their business, ignoring the Martial Artists unless they had been interfered. Pandas with desert appropriate attires would be the merchants and even bystanders. The best thing of all? Everything that could be picked up can be used for the fight as well. And that means the merchants who were pretending to be selling, have goods like weapons and inscription charms. However, Jin had to ask the Royal Zodiacs aka the sponsors whether this was allowed or not. If they were adamant that it should not happen and Jin merely just had to set their settings as mere props which could be destroyed like a piece of breakable wood.

As such, the fights could evolve and be done within a house instead but Jin had also made sure that there were Magic Eyes everywhere to take the videos as cinematic as possible and not missing out a single bit of the combat at all.

As for the Quarter Finals, the fights in the village can be taken into the inner city where if they run around enough, they would be able to duel outside the gates of a Palace. At first, Jin thought it was ridiculous since there would definitely be people unable to watch if he were to create a Palace at the centre of the stadium.

But that was where the System utilised the previous stadium settings that Jin had created and made the seats move in a systematic manner where everyone within the stadium would be able to watch the fight regardless of any building obstruction. At the very most, Magic Eyes Screens would emerge and accommodate their guests until people would be able to watch everything from their seats.

With this, surely the semi finals would be held within the palace filled with Islamic architecture while surely most had been referenced from real life palaces that the System was able to take from the internet to create most of it.

Jin believed that this would provide an unforgettable experience for the martial artists even though this was the first time that he was doing this. The System on the other hand found it an interesting concept and queried how many themes was he about to do.

"About another three more I think? If I remember correctly, the final match consisted of four rounds. And with the dimensional instance as well as the medical luxury instance even though we all knew that part of the instance was a hoax, we are able to field the contestants immediately at full strength."

"So, the winner with three wins will take the trophy but if it's a tie, there would be an extra match." The System stated and Jin nodded his head. We can just do a randomiser and see which theme would be repeated once more unless you want me to create a specific dimensional instance theme just for the tiebreaker."

"The System believed that would be the most optimal route as a tie on both ends also meant that the contestants should deserve something better. A special stage that would allow both of them to settle their differences once and for all."

"Hmm, that is true. It would provide an epic ending for whatever anniversary the Royal Zodiacs had planned for the Martial Arts Competition." Jin added.

"However, The System also find that the special stage should be placed at the last portion of our agenda. It is not as important as the other four themes since if time is not permitted, the System also recommends just allowing the martial artists to choose at random or have the two of them choose one and they play a coin toss to settle the differences."

"Ah, so in short, it is like however won that coin toss, may have a slight advantage since they were more familiar with that particular theme." Jin understood where the System was coming from.

"However, this might not be fair since a coin toss can be a biased move against the martial artists."

"Nah, its fine. If they chose where they wanted to fight, luck also plays a part for them to be a competent martial artist." Jin shrugged the System's worries off. "So, aside from the desert theme, is the System looking forward to any other theme?"

"Shouldn't the User be the one choosing? After all, its part of your creative process." The System stated and Jin shook his head.

"Yeah, but if you could give me a heads up of something that you like, maybe you can find some enjoyment in working this particular competition as well?" Jin explained but the System did not give a proper statement.

"The System's primary concern is that the User would be able to finish it in time. Its choice of theme should not be a factor that the User needs to take into consideration."

"Aww man, its fine. I will work doubly hard. Just choose something! Or else, I am ordering you to do it." Jin insisted that the System chose something.

"Very well, since the User is adamant, the System will choose one particular theme." The System stated and it went quiet for a moment before putting its choice right in front of Jin to consider. When Jin saw the theme he was scratching his head as he had no idea that the System could have such…taste.

"Are you sure for this?" Jin asked and then he quickly retracted his question, knowing that the System will state that it was better for the Dungeon Supplier to make his own theme instead. "No, no, no. Do not reply me. I will take it as do it to the best of my abilities."

"The System appreciates User for accommodating to the System's request."

"Nah, don't say that I just find it unusual to choose such a particular theme." Jin said as he looked at the words written on the console: Highway Chase.

"The System believed that this would be an exciting theme while not taking too much time to create since it is on an expressway."

"Lol, can you imagine we purposely create a portion where there's a big jam in the highway." Jin commented and the System found it to be plausible in a highway chase, making it look forward how Jin could create it.
