"Oh~, you don't surrender?"
Looking at his opponent taking an offensive stance, Boguna spoke with a hint of sarcasm.
"Humph! Since I've chosen to participate in this tournament, why would I back down just because my opponent is too strong?"
"Haha~, really?"
when--!
The bell rang to signal the start of the match.
Boguna's opponent immediately ran towards the edge of the field, chanting a spell quickly.
"Your courage is commendable~!"
Boguna stood there calmly and stretched out his right hand towards the man.
"But! How foolish—!"
Boom!
A huge column of fire shot up into the sky, instantly enveloping the man.
"ah--!"
As screams echoed throughout the venue, the dome of the venue was scorched by pillars of fire.
when--!
Not long after, the bell rang again.
"The winner is Boguna Sind!"
As the referee announced the result, the audience burst into loud cheers.
"Boguna!"
"Boguna!"
"champion!"
“… …”
"Quick! Rescue the injured!"
Amidst the roaring cheers, few paid any attention to the severely injured contestant whose body was charred. No one even knew when he was carried away...
"...that's too much."
Bars frowned as he looked at Boguna who was slowly leaving the center of the arena amid the cheers of the audience.
"Indeed, he has many ways to deal with his opponents..."
Hulim agreed with what Bars said.
This Boguna could obviously end the fight in a more gentle way, but he chose such a cruel method. By doing so, the opponent might die if he is not careful. You must know that the core of this competition is competition, not duel.
"... ...his nature is too cruel."
Hulim withdrew his gaze from Boguna and looked around the venue.
Not only the spectators were attracted by the gimmick of Boguna being the favorite to win, but also many contestants. In sharp contrast to the spectators, Boguna's behavior made all the contestants feel dissatisfied.
After all, no one can guarantee that they will not run into each other next time...
After Boguna's match ended, the competition in this small stadium was temporarily suspended because the dome was burned and there was a risk of falling debris, which might affect the next game, so it needed to be repaired before it could continue.
The King's Martial Arts Festival limits the age of orcs and humans to under twenty-four years old. Although the conditions for elves and dwarves are different, they also have corresponding age limits. The reason for such age restrictions is the burnt dome.
If a world-class competition like this does not have age restrictions, it will definitely attract A-level strongmen to participate. If a battle breaks out between A-level strongmen, even if the arena is large enough, it will definitely not be able to withstand it!
Of course, even if it's not A-level, the destructive power of B-level is enough to cause trouble in the arena...
Therefore, it is not realistic to hold a competition for top-level masters in Himlir. If the large arena is rebuilt every time, no one can afford the loss.
... ...
"Hulim, this is your last match, right? If you win this, you'll advance to the top 100!"
"Yes, this is my last match, but Miko, you're almost there too. The contestants nowadays are very strong, you better keep up the good work."
"Don't worry, I will definitely make it to the semi-finals!"
The two encouraged each other and then headed towards their respective competition venues.
There are only a few hundred people left in the competition, which has greatly accelerated the pace of the competition. There is not much time to wander around. Both of them will have to wait in their respective venues until the preliminaries are over, otherwise there is a risk of missing the competition.
It’s still venue number seven.
Unlike the initial match, when the venue was still empty, the number of people now crammed into the venue far exceeded its capacity.
Most of these people were attracted by Hulim.
Although Hulim's moves were always clean and decisive, and he never revealed his true strength, the audience was not stupid. He was able to quickly defeat his opponents every time, which was enough to show that this player's strength far exceeded that of his opponents.
At the same time, for this reason, Hulim was ranked high on the top 100 list...
"As expected of the foreign aid invited by the White Cat Royal Family, this strength should not be underestimated!"
Before the bell for the match rang, the opponent suddenly spoke to Hulim.
Hulim did not answer.
The opponent didn't care and continued talking to himself. There was no sign of nervousness from his strong competitor on his face.
"Although you're strong,...if you think you can keep going, you're totally wrong!"
“This master——!”
The opponent raised his right thumb and pointed at himself.
"I will defeat you right here! I will advance to the top 100 and completely dash the hopes of your White Cat Royal Family!"
"?"
A question mark appeared over Hulim's head.
... ...What is this person talking about?
"Hmph~, what, are you surprised~?"
No, it wasn't a surprise, it just felt a little...
"It's right to be an accident!"
“… …”
"To tell you the truth! I came here specifically to snipe you!!! In order to avoid alerting the White Cat Royal Family, I've been suppressing my strength. If you think my strength is really just mid-range like it's ranked on the list, you're dead wrong!"
