Wu, wu, wu …
The arena's horn sounded, signaling the start of the second round of the Kingdom Martial Tournament.
However, the number of participants had been reduced from five to one per guild.
Despite this, they were still the cream of the crop of their respective guilds. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were the future of the Skywind Empire!
"What's going on? Why did the tournament's rules change?
Isn't the Kingdom Martial Tournament a child's play? "
"Who knows?
But this isn't something we can interfere with. "
"Sigh!
The smaller guilds are getting a great bargain! "
…
Li Mo didn't care about the crowd's unfriendly gazes.
Instead, he looked at a young man standing in the front row. It was none other than Wang Zixuan.
Wang Zixuan sensed someone watching him and turned to meet Li Mo's eyes.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, having a tacit understanding!
"First match, Tiger Subduing City versus Celestial Water City!"
The referee's announcement silenced the crowd.
The students of the two Guilds walked out of the crowd and followed the referee into the Arena.
"Sigh!
I heard Tiger Subduing City's student is level 43. I really want to see his match! "
"Isn't that right? Celestial Water City's student is level 40 as well.
It's a shame we won't be able to watch these two experts fight! "
"What's there to be sorry about? As long as you win, you'll have a chance to meet the winner.
There's still a chance for you to meet the winner. At that time, you'll be able to personally experience it! "
"Uh … I-I'm just saying. If I meet them, I won't stand a chance …"
…
With the referee gone, the crowd went back to talking, with many discordant voices.
This showed Li Mo that the other guilds weren't as friendly as they seemed on the surface.
A quarter of an hour later, Tiger Subduing City's student walked out of the arena with an excited face.
It was a stark contrast to the dejected Celestial Water City student behind him. The outcome was clear for all to see.
"Second match, Allspirits City versus Meteor City!"
Following the referee's announcement, Wang Zixuan and a young man followed him into the arena.
What everyone didn't expect was that the match only took less than the time to drink a cup of tea.
Wang Zixuan was the first to leave the Arena. From his expression, it was obvious that he was the victor.
"Wow!
This fellow from Myriad Spirits City was simply too strong!
In such a short time, this … this is simply an instant kill! "
"Yeah!
It had only been the time to drink a cup of tea, but he had won so easily!
Looks like there are really crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this conference! "
"Sigh!
It's a pity that we can't go in and watch their battle! "
…
"Li Mo, I'm still waiting to see you in the finals!
Don't disappoint me! "
After the match, Wang Zixuan did not continue to stay here.
He came to Li Mo and whispered a few words before leaving!
Li Mo only smiled and didn't reply, but he made up his mind.
"Don't worry!
Whether it's for our Fallen Leaf Town guild, or for Liu Yan and Ao Ying, I won't allow myself to fail! "
"The third match, Fallen Leaf Town against Scarlet Flame City!"
At the referee's command, Li Mo was the first to walk out of the crowd.
Following closely behind him was a well-built young man, who should be a student of Redflame City.
"He-he … did you see that Fallen Leaf Town member who picked up a big bargain?!
If not for the sudden change in the rules, he would've long since lost the right to participate.
But it's his bad luck that he ran into Scarlet Flame City.
That's a 43 level power. Isn't it more than enough to deal with him? "
"Hey!
You can't say that.
How do you know Scarlet Flame City will win?
Don't forget, Fallen Leaf Town eliminated this year's favorite, Veluriyam City, in the first match because of this kid's outstanding performance! "
"Humph!
Don't forget that it was because his companions risked their own injuries to create an opportunity for him.
Without anyone's help, I don't think he can keep going! "
…
Li Mo heard the discussion behind him, but didn't mind it too much. It only fueled his fighting spirit.
"Humph … I'll show you what it means to be a snob!"
He followed the referee to the familiar arena.
Li Mo looked around the stands and found Han Tianyu and Land Rover watching him with concern.
But Li Mo didn't expect Lan Jingyuan to be among them.
"Scarlet Flame City's Meng Li, 43 level warrior!"
Li Mo's opponent's voice rang.
It pulled his attention back to the arena.
"Fallen Leaf Town's Li Mo, 40 level assassin!"
The opponent announced his name, level, and class, a sign of respect for Li Mo. Li Mo couldn't be disrespectful.
"Even though you're an assassin and can counter my profession, you're still an assassin.
But there is a gap of three levels between us. Be careful, fists and feet have no eyes! "
Meng Li's simple and honest voice rang again as he touched his storage belt.
A white light flashed and a pair of iron hammers appeared in his hands.
"Thanks for the reminder, I will!
You should be careful too! "
Li Mo answered with a smile as he drew his Dragonscale Scarlet Sword.
"Eh?
Are you sure you're an assassin? "
Seeing Li Mo's weapon, Meng Li began to doubt his words.
According to his understanding, most assassins would choose a lighter weapon and not a heavy sword like this! "
"Ha-ha … I am indeed an assassin, but I have a different opinion when it comes to weapons!"
Li Mo was embarrassed by Meng Li's question.
Apart from him, no other assassin would choose to use his Dragonscale Scarlet Sword as their weapon!
"Good!
I want to see what kind of power an assassin can wield with a warrior's weapon.
Come, let's begin! "
Meng Li strode towards Li Mo with his hammers.
Boom …
When he was ten meters from Li Mo, he stopped and his hammers struck the ground.
Kacha …
The white marble on the ground cracked like a broken mirror, spreading to where Li Mo stood!
"Ah!"
Li Mo cried out in shock!
He quickly retreated.
He had fought many warriors, but this was the first time he encountered such a skill. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it.
Meng Li's skill didn't seem that strong, but Li Mo's heart felt uneasy, not daring to be careless!
Kacha!
Kacha …
The cracks spread faster and faster, forcing Li Mo to use Shadowmeld.
A grand assassin was known for his speed, yet he was forced to use his support skill by a warrior.
The spectating guild leaders and teachers were flabbergasted. Only Scarlet Flame City's leader nodded with a satisfied smile!
Swish …
Li Mo relied on his strange movement and speed to retreat until he reached the edge of the stage.
The cracks on the ground didn't show any signs of stopping!
"Damn it, there's no way out!
I can only fight! "
