Just as the two of them looked at each other.

The door of the special room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

As soon as Miko walked into the room, he was immediately fixed by several pairs of eyes.

"Uh...what's wrong? Is there something on me? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Mi Ke looked at himself carefully and didn't find anything strange.

"...Mike, where have you been, um...or rather, what have you been doing?"

"Well--!"

Miko's face suddenly froze and his eyes began to wander.

"Uh, that..."

boom--!!!

Just as Miko was hesitating, a huge ball of magical fireworks rose above the stadium and then bloomed with dazzling and brilliant colors.

This also means that the opening ceremony of the competition has begun...

For a moment, everyone's attention was diverted to the outside. Mi Ke took the opportunity to find a place to sit down and successfully fooled the matter away.

"ladies and gentlemen--!"

The competition host, standing on a flying disc and holding a magic loudspeaker high in his hand, flew to the podium.

"Welcome to the quadrennial King's Martial Arts Ceremony!!! This year's host is once again me—George Glaven!"

George Glaven put down the magic loudspeaker and waved to everyone around him.

And warm cheers echoed from all directions.

"I heard it, I heard it! I heard your enthusiasm~!" George raised the magic megaphone again, "But—this isn't enough! The real exciting moment is just around the corner!"

"It will be performed for us by young strong men from all over the world! Are you ready?!"

The stadium suddenly erupted in even more enthusiastic cheers.

"It seems everyone can't wait any longer."

"Yes! I can't wait either! Now let's get straight to the point of this grand event! Let's fight—!"

“Fight! Fight! Fight…”

The word "war" resounded through the sky from all directions.

"Next, please welcome! The two guests for this year's opening competition!!!"

“They’re coming! They’re on stage—!!!”

George stretched out his hand and pointed to the stadium. Then two figures walked into the stadium from two opposite passages. The tens of thousands of spectators at the scene instantly burst into even more enthusiastic cheers.

"Guess who the two guests for this year's opening match are?"

"One of them—surprisingly! He's a renowned, invincible warrior from the Adventurer's City! His body can bear boulders! His shield is indestructible! It's unbelievable that anyone could break through his defenses! This is the iron fortress-like vanguard—Rad Vere!!!"

Following George's introduction, shouts rose one after another from the audience.

Rad, wearing heavy armor and holding a door-sized shield in his right hand, raised the shield in his hand and gestured slightly to the audience around him.

For a moment, the shouts around became louder.

"Another guest—unbelievable! Unbelievably! A powerful figure who roams the world alone, slaying all who stand in his way! His magic is both beautiful and deadly! Who can stop the torrent he unleashes?! This is the water mage, as elegant as blue crystal—Lor Klin!!!"

Lor, wearing a light blue wizard robe and holding a wand inlaid with blue magic crystals in his right hand, snapped his fingers lightly.

Streams of water suddenly surrounded her, then blossomed into the shape of flowers and disappeared.

Such a performance made the shouts from all directions deafening.

As George finished introducing the two people, the atmosphere on the scene reached its climax.

"An indestructible fortress, or an all-encompassing torrent? Who is stronger? Oh~! Do you want to know too?"

"Don't worry, the answer will be revealed soon! Now! Let the two guests take their seats——"

As George gave the signal.

Rad held up his shield and slowly walked towards the center of the arena. Similarly, Lor on the opposite side also held a staff in his right hand and walked towards the center.

When the two reached a certain distance, they stopped at the same time.

"Sir Lor, I heard you're from that tower. I'm sure with your abilities, you'll be able to give the audience a wonderful performance, right?"

"Of course, Your Excellency Rad. Although this is just an exhibition match, I still hope you can show your true abilities. I think the most realistic battle is what the audience wants to see most, right?"

"Hahaha~! Of course. If I win, please don't blame me~!"

"Then I'll try my best not to let that happen~!"

"Excellent speeches! Both guests are undoubting their victory, so who will ultimately claim victory? I declare—Opening Match! Begin!"

when--!

The bell for the start of the game rang throughout the stadium.

At the same time, the two people in the arena moved.

"ha--!"

Rad roared, and white light appeared around his body. Then he rushed towards Lor at high speed like a speeding chariot.

Crash!

Lor waved his wand and summoned suspended rivers. Under the sunlight, the rivers reflected dazzling light, making the entire venue even more dazzling.

Boom——!

The next moment, the originally beautiful rivers suddenly converged and rushed towards Rad who was rushing towards them.

The ultra-high-speed water flow hit the shield, shattering and splashing water all over the sky, and actually created fleeting rainbows in the sunlight.
