1510 Landon! Ash Flame! (1)
A day had pa.s.sed and a total of 50 matches were carried out!
That was considered fast.
Some of the matches ended with a single blow. They were unbelievably fast and astonis.h.i.+ng.
That was also an indicator that there were still stark differences between the top thousand warriors!
If the lowest performers met the really powerful, the matter would be settled with one move.
!!
“These matches are one-on-one so we can watch them all! We won’t need to search through all the screens.”
“Brilliant! Wonderful!”
“These matches take up much more time, but it’s definitely much more entertaining than the elimination battles.”
“These matches are really eye-openers.”
“I’m looking forward to w.a.n.g Teng’s next match. The first one was really exciting.”
“I want to see people get smashed by his brick for some reason. My hands feel itchy after watching that.”
“My hands are itching too.”
“Same here!”
“Where’s that fatty?”
“He’s probably hiding in a corner and crying. He ended up becoming a real pig after pretending to be one. He’s probably embarra.s.sed.”
“But his strength is not too bad. He should be able to prevail in the 500-men revival round.”
…
The crowd was having discussions with great interest. Some people felt that Wade was sly, yet strong enough to advance.
That was how the universe worked; everything depended on a person’s strength. The flaws of powerful people would be ignored; people would only remember their strength and potential.
Just like how w.a.n.g Teng did whatever he pleased and was shameless to a fault, many felt those were trivial matters when compared with his absolute strength; they were more concerned about how powerful he really was.
Some people even felt that his fighting style was special and wanted to learn it.
Other warriors would emulate a top talent’s actions and behavior.
Of course, the most important point was that our young hero was… handsome!
Everything a handsome person did could be recognized.
The audience knew about the Crown Prince’s appearance. However, w.a.n.g Teng’s looks and temperament were definitely the most outstanding in all of the League of Talents. No one else could compare.
It was outrageous!
The princes and all the talents from the dukedoms came from generations and generations of the best bloodlines. Hence, their looks were indeed excellent.
However, w.a.n.g Teng was only a martial warrior from an underdeveloped planet, which was tantamount to being a commoner in the scope of the whole universe. He had no bloodline to speak of.
It was unbelievable that he had that kind of appearance.
w.a.n.g Teng’s ‘beyond human’ appearance was real.
Many people were speculating that he was the result of a… mutation!
Otherwise, how was he so terrifying and powerful? Even his looks were exceptional. He didn’t give anyone else a chance.
The next day, the compet.i.tion continued.
A thousand warriors meant five hundred matches. It would take ten days to determine the five hundred who would proceed to the next stage.
Among the five hundred eliminated, fifty would be revived and join the five hundred victors. They would then be matched up randomly again.
275 martial warriors would be eliminated, and five of them would be revived. 280 warriors would then move onto the next stage.
After 140 winners were decided, two more would be revived and 71 victors would then be decided among them. One more person would then be revived and from there, 36 winners will be decided from the 72 partic.i.p.ants. There wouldn’t be any more revivals after that.
The top eighteen would be decided after that!
Those eighteen warriors would go through a round robin to determine the top ten!
The compet.i.tion was in full swing, and many people were surprised with the matchup.
Landon vs Edwina!
Landon from the Parkers family!
w.a.n.g Teng glanced to his left. Landon was in the top ten of Zone 1. However, compared to Strachey, he was less known and had a low profile.
His opponent Edwina was ranked fifth in Zone 3!
The matching immediately attracted lots of attention.
It was a clash between the top tens!
That was the first time this happened in the compet.i.tion!
Even though Zone 3 was definitely inferior to Zone 1, a martial warrior who could reach the top ten in one of those zones was definitely not weak. No one could guarantee that their opponents had used their full strength back in the elimination battle.
The expectations were still high!
Landon stood up and smiled, certainly confident. He then leaped and rushed into the sky.
Concurrently, a beautiful woman with long reddish-brown hair slowly got up, to then rush straight into the sky with her graceful figure.
Both of them hovered in the sky with swords drawn; a tense atmosphere filled the air.
“Begin!” said the voice coming from the light sphere.
Boom!
Landon and Edwina struck at the same time, turning into streaks of light as they dashed towards each other, causing an explosion in the sky.
Edwina’s weapon was a long, python-like whip, made with metal sections. As she danced, the whip moved around in the sky, just like a snake. It was extremely difficult to deal with.
On top of that, she condensed a python shadow with her water Force. Its huge body coiled up, almost encircling the entire sky while intently looking at Landon, just like observing its prey.
