The Sacred Battle Arena 1 is an optional level in Lost Kingdoms II. It is a location found within the region of Kendaria.
Sacred Battle Arena 1 is the first of the two Sacred Battle Arena levels. Gurd travels to this stage after the first mission of Ruldo Forest has been cleared. Four powerful creatures representing the main attributes can be battled here.
To unlock Sacred Battle Arena 1, Tara must return to Ruldo Forest after clearing it for the first time and defeat the three Cockatrices past where Gurd was blocking the way previously.

Summary
After Tara returned to Ruldo Forest and defeated the three Cockatrices there, she went down another path out of the forest that led to the mountains. This path eventually took her to the Sacred Battle Arena, which was the home of Gurd and a training ground for Runestone Masters.
Gurd welcomed Tara to the Sacred Battle Arena, then asked her to deal with a Stranger who was trespassing. This intruder, a man from the Isamat Urbur cult, would not leave Gurd's home. Tara battled with him and won, and the Stranger was turned into a Runestone upon his death, which Tara collected.
After the defeat of the Stranger, Tara returned to Gurd and was given the Mysterious Key as thanks, an object the Stranger dropped before Tara's arrival. This key would allow Tara to open the sealed doors of the Nobleman's Residence.
Over a period of time, Tara raised her skill levels for the four main attributes: Fire, Earth, Water, and Wood. This allowed her to open four doors, each requiring a high skill level in one of these attributes, that led rooms with powerful guardian monsters. She fought and defeated all four guardians, and collected the card of each one upon their defeat. She then fought a Kendarie Card Master, which unlocked the doors to the next level of the Sacred Battle Arena: Sacred Battle Arena 2.

Area Progression
Gurd's Request
When entering Sacred Battle Arena 1, Gurd will welcome Tara when spoken to the first time. When spoken to a second time, Gurd will ask Tara to take care of the intruder in her home: a Stranger. This Stranger is in the room behind Gurd.
Stranger
A Stranger is found in the room behind Gurd. Defeating him will give Tara the Olf Runestone, an item needed to clear the optional level known as Isamat Urbur.
Like all other Strangers that can be battled, this Stranger will not be able to be fought again once he is defeated.
Mysterious Key
After defeating the Stranger, talking to Gurd again will give Tara the Mysterious Key. Once this key has been obtained, Tara will be able to open the sealed doors of the Nobleman's Residence.
Unlocking Sacred Battle Arena 2
To unlock Sacred Battle Arena 2, Tara must first defeat the Stranger in the room behind Gurd. Next, all four of the powerful monsters in the attribute rooms must have their cards collected. Then, the Kendarie Card Master who takes the place of the Stranger after his death must be defeated as well. Finally, interacting with the set of doors at the end of the level will end the mission of Sacred Battle Arena 1 and unlock Sacred Battle Arena 2.
Four Guardians
In Sacred Battle Arena 1, four powerful enemy monsters, each representing one of the four main attributes, can be fought. Each of these monsters, the Gemini for the Fire attribute, the Kraken for Water, the Lich for Earth, and the Nueh for Wood, will be behind the doors matching their attribute.
The doors of the rooms these monsters are fought in require Tara to have at least a skill level of 6 stars in the attribute they represent. One way to raise these skill levels quickly is to use Transform type cards of attributes whose ratings need to be raised. Another way to do this is by using high rated cards.
Defeating each of these guardian monsters will give Tara their power in card form. While they can be fought any time the stage is returned to with a high enough attribute skill level to open the doors they are found behind, doing so will not reward Tara with another card.
Kendarie Card Master
After defeating each of the monsters in the four main attribute rooms, going to the room behind Gurd and defeating the Kendarie Card Master found there will unlock a path leading to the end of the level. Interacting with the set of doors at the end of the level will clear the mission of Sacred Battle Arena 1 and unlock Sacred Battle Arena 2.
The Kendarie Card Master can be fought at anytime after the death of the Stranger, but doing so before obtaining all four cards of the monsters in the attribute rooms will not unlock the doors leading to the end of the level. Unlike the Stranger, who is only available to fight before his defeat, the Kendarie Card Master can be fought multiple times.
