For level 11. Battle Royale

The sorcerer Hao Jin has returned to Tian Xia to host her decennial international fighting tournament, and contestants from all over the world have arrived to try their chance at winning a prize from her vault of incredible treasures. Before they can compete in the tournament, however, fighters must first complete a series of qualifying challenges on the uninhabited tropical island of Bonmu, where wild dinosaurs roam amid the ancient ruins of a lost civilization. Can the heroes defend their island stronghold, outlast their many ruthless rivals, and survive the perils of so-called Danger Island? Let the competitors decide!

Eight teams of the world's greatest fighters have qualified for the grand tournament and must now compete to win a prize from the grand treasure vault of Hao Jin, the Ruby Phoenix. The player characters will need to muster skill, strength, and style in order to overcome their rivals and impress the audience in a variety of fighting bouts. But when their greatest rivals disrupt the tournament by summoning an ancient terror from the ocean's depths, it's up to the players to put a stop to the rampaging monster before it destroys the city of Goka!
