The battles were conducted under a best-of-five format, wherein a side would be eliminated after losing three matches, thus missing out on the championship title of this grand tournament.Therefore, for the major meta-human organizations, every battle was of critical importance.
In the subsequent four battles between "Statue of Liberty" and "Pharaoh," the competitors from both sides fought even more fiercely, to the point where it could be described as brutal. Both winners and losers were covered with wounds, and nobody was willing to concede defeat until the very last moment.
The overall strength of "Pharaoh" was slightly inferior to that of "Statue of Liberty." Following their defeat in the first match, "Pharaoh" also lost their second battle to a member of "Statue of Liberty."
For "Pharaoh," who had lost two matches in a row, the importance of the third match was self-evident.
If they lost the third match, they would have to pack up and leave early; if they won, they would still have a chance to turn the tide and secure victory.
However, everyone knew that this chance was extremely slim because as soon as "Statue of Liberty" won one more match, they would secure their ticket to the next stage and kick "Pharaoh" out of the top ten.
Moreover, the leader of "Statue of Liberty," Isabella, hadnât made a move yet. As long as she made the wise decision to avoid "Pharaohâs" leader, Dear, she would have the winning hand.
Even if Dear participated in battle, he could only represent "Pharaoh" in one match. Even if he managed to win a match for "Pharaoh," there would still be two matches left. As long as Isabella stepped in, barring any accidents, she was sure to win.
After all, Isabella was the leader of "Statue of Liberty," and even if her strength wasnât up to par with Dearâs, she couldnât possibly be so weak that she couldnât even beat the subordinates of Dear.
However, knowing that "Pharaoh" was on the brink of elimination, Dear still entered the battle, aiming to salvage some dignity for "Pharaoh."
As Dear wished, as soon as he entered the arena, he defeated his opponent with a single move and left the stage with grace.
But soon after, in the following battle, the leader of "Statue of Liberty," Isabella, also defeated a member of "Pharaoh" with a single move, responding to Dearâs performance.
In the end, "Statue of Liberty" advanced to the next round with a score of three to one.
And "Pharaoh" tragically became the first meta-human organization to be eliminated from the top ten.
The audience at the scene couldnât help but feel a sense of regret at not being able to witness the much-anticipated battle between Isabella and Dear.
Following "Pharaoh" and "Statue of Liberty," it was "Dragon Guardâs" turn to face off against a meta-human organization from Japan called "Kyokushinkai."
The members of "Kyokushinkai," mainly ninjas, were proficient in Ninjutsu, swordsmanship, and martial arts, and had a certain reputation worldwide. Their entry into the top ten this time showcased their remarkable strength.
However, in comparison with Huaxiaâs "Dragon Guard," the overall strength of "Kyokushinkai" was more than just a notch below. Fang Bai didnât even need to lift a finger; he simply sent members like Long Da and Long Er to compete, who swept through the battle with overwhelming momentum, securing a ticket to the top five.
In the subsequent matches, Europaâs "Holy Temple," the Russian Federationâs "Blizzard," and Indiaâs "Brahma" each defeated their opponents and successfully made it into the top five.
By now, "Statue of Liberty," "Dragon Guard," "Holy Temple," "Blizzard," and "Brahma," the worldâs five great meta-human organizations, had become the final top five, and would determine the champion of this tournament in tomorrowâs competition.
When Isabella announced the end of todayâs event, hundreds of members from various meta-human organizations left the venue, each with different emotions, some joyful and some worried.
The "Dragon Guard" had won todayâs match with ease and comfort, so the mood among its members was relaxed. After leaving the venue, to celebrate the victory, Fang Bai treated everyone, taking Dragon Maiden, Long Da, and others to the best hotel in Chinatown for a meal and drinks.
The battle for the championship among the top five tomorrow was destined to be fiercely intense. The "Dragon Guard" faced no weak opponents, so Dragon Maiden, Long Da, and the others did not go out that evening. Instead, they honestly stayed in their hotel rooms, meditated, and regulated their breath, striving to adjust their spirit to the optimal condition to prepare for tomorrowâs great battle.
Fang Bai seemed unconcerned, already having a plan in mind for tomorrowâs event and confident in securing the championship.
While Dragon Maiden and the others meditated in their rooms, Fang Bai wasnât idle. Just like the night before, he practiced moving blood and changing bones, disguised himself, and first snuck into the white castle deep in the desert to find that beautiful girl, Isabella, and had a big fight with her. Then he located the leaders of the other four finalists and fought with each of them as well.
Fang Bai sought them out to exchange blows mainly because their strengths were not far apart, which gave him the opportunity to refine his own skills and even utilize their special abilities to assist his cultivation.
On the other hand, Fang Bai intentionally caused trouble.
Fang Baiâs mysterious identity and formidable strength were enough to distress leaders such as Isabella, prompting them to be on high alert. This inevitably led to their mental tension. Moreover, Fang Baiâs battles with them tonight, fighting until they were exhausted, would surely affect their performance tomorrow, which would benefit the "Dragon Guard."
After battling Fang Bai, the leaders of the four great meta-human organizations both resented and dreaded this enigmatic young man from Huaxia.
They resented that after tonightâs battle with Fang Bai, they had expended a great deal of energy and would only be able to perform at sixty to seventy percent of their full strength in tomorrowâs event.
They dreaded that Fang Baiâs strength was too formidable, and they were uncertain of his motives for repeatedly provoking them.
Moreover, Fang Bai was elusive, with a "Divine Dragon" that showed its head but not its tail, making tracking him an impossibility. Therefore, the vexed leaders of the four meta-human organizations could only gnash their teeth in secret and swear to use all their connections to find out who the mysterious Huaxian was.
That night, in the hotel across from where Fang Bai and the others were staying, a bewitchingly beautiful woman in black moved in.
The woman in black was about 1.7 meters tall, in her twenties, with almond eyes and cherry lips, skin white as snow, and long, explosive hair. There was a natural charm in the corners of her brows and eyes, so mesmerizing that it would take oneâs breath away, truly a peerless beauty among women.
Not only was the woman in black extremely beautiful, but her voice also carried a charm that could make many menâs hearts flutter and minds wander as soon as she spoke. Ęá´á´á´ Ęá´á´á´sá´ á´Ęá´á´á´á´Ęs á´á´ Nová´lFÉŞre.ná´t
On the night of her arrival, the woman in black set up a high-powered telescope by the window of her room to spy on Fang Baiâs presidential suite across the street.
On the thumb of the womanâs left hand was a Jade Thumb Ring engraved with many intricate patterns and runes. If Fang Bai saw it, he would recognize it as a Spiritual Artifact of no low grade.
This Jade Thumb Ring had the effect of concealing a Martial Artistâs aura, and had a method similar to Fang Baiâs Cultivation Technique for hiding his own strength. Therefore, even though the woman in black was staying in the hotel just across the street from Fang Bai, he was unable to sense any fluctuations in her Martial Artist Aura.
