When this feat is completed, new areas and features become accessible, including the way to the last Monster Arena.
After your success, return to the Castle of the Dragon Queen, where a portal will now be open.
This portal takes you to Heaven, a floating island that ushers in the upcoming challenges.
As you step into Heaven, you'll arrive at a floating island with a cave named ???.
This area is a gauntlet of revisited locations filled with much stronger enemies.
You'll encounter powerful monsters and uncover valuable treasures, including recruitable allies and mini-medals.
As you progress in this tricky section, prepare your team for nonstop fights and managing resources.
Once you pass through these dungeons, you'll arrive at Cloudsgate Citadel.
It’s a safe haven where you can rest, save your progress, and purchase supplies.
From Cloudsgate Citadel, head towards the Citadel Tower for your next task. This trail is dangerous and guarded by powerful enemies and rare finds.
The tower's summit holds Xenlon, a mighty dragon blocking access to the Final Monster Arena.
Defeating Xenlon is no small feat and calls for a mix of smart tactics and powerful skills.
You can take up to 35 turns to win the first battle, but completing future fights in under 15 turns will bring bigger rewards.
Defeating Xenlon rewards you with a wish. Out of the choices, choose to establish a new Monster Arena.
Xenlon will then fulfill your request by setting up the arena in a well-situated Jipang, a key area on the map.
This new Monster Arena hosts the highest tournament ranks, 10 and 11. It’s the real test for future Monster Wranglers.
