From the next day onwards, just like a switch indicating excitement and death was ignited, the battles continued. Gladiators died while others shined, using the death of their opponents as stepping stones to glory. It was cruel, but in here, all the gladiators were no longer in control of their fate. It’s either you win by fighting to the best of your ability or die trying. It's either you’re the survivor or the dead. As the tournament progressed, a lot of hidden masters started appearing as predicted, making the elimination phase a lot more dangerous and unpredictable. After standing at the sides and watching others duke it out for about a week, the dice finally rolled to Clark’s small circle of companions. It was now the day of Emily’s first battle. Clark and Henry both wished her luck before leaving her to go on stage. This was the best that they could do, the ball was on her court,

At another important cage arena on the ship designated to the gladiators, a fierce battle was going on. This was a battle between Captain Jack, the Commander of the Camelotian fleet, and another 3rd rank high-grade soldier. During the 3rd rank high-grade soldiers training sessions, he was not too exceptional as he opted to act in a low-key manner, but no one dared to underestimate him. As the commander of a whole fleet, his strength and capability are not beans, everyone was clear on that.            This was his first gladiator battle; his ring name was still Captain Jack. He was too arrogant or probably too lazy to brainstorm for a tyrannical nickname, his opponent’s ring name is Deathstroke.            As soon as the battle began, he was too impatient to slowly fight a drawn-out battle as he charged forward to meet his opponent decisively. Though his

After a week of treatment, Emily was finally discharged. She came to meet her friends, looking energetic as usual. During this week that she stayed in the medical bay, Henry fought his second battle. It was not as dramatic as hers though. He won after a drawn-out battle of attrition. Forget about his lack of self-confidence, he was still one of the best on the ship. His lack of confidence is because of the steep requirement of only 5 survivors. … It was already 3 months since the tournament began, today is Clark’s 2nd battle fixture. His opponent this time is Excalibur. The fight was without suspense as he completely crushed his opponent. After some time, Emily and Henry also had their 3rd tournament battle. They both fought against weaker opponents and won after putting in some effort. The main highlight of these recent battles was The Emperor’s 3rd battle, which he fought against Jian Wushaung. Jian Wushaung, the name sounded ridicul

Of the two hundred and four 2nd rank high-grade soldiers who participated in the elimination round, only 13 soldiers survived to this last round. After the first round, 102 soldiers survived to the next round. After the 2nd round, 51 soldiers were left. 50 of them had to fight, and one lucky gladiator among them was allowed to advance directly to the next round without battling. After the 3rd round, only 26 soldiers survived. Then after the 4th round, these 13 soldiers were the golden goose survivors. These 13 soldiers are then going to fight for the last opportunity to survive. The battles began without much fanfare, as the cream of the crop of the initial 204 soldiers started battling for the 5 survivor slots. After 2 weeks of constant exciting battles, today is a battle between the flexible master and exterminator. Emily got prepared to cross her last hurdle, as Clark and Henry encouraged her to be calm and try her best. The commentator was

The demon subduer couldn’t endure it anymore as he tore open his last trump card. He quickly started executing his ultimate, his self-created technique, the wild strikes of death. Normally, he used his self-created technique as his final finishing blow. This is because self-created techniques are very energy and concentration draining, even more so than battle arts. This immediately caused his offensive to rise a level, as his opponent started struggling to keep up. Henry included this in his plans, as this was not the first time that he saw his opponent using this self-created technique. Despite his preparation, things don’t always go according to plan as the increased offensive was fiercer than he predicted. He repeatedly parried with his 2 swords, while letting out grunts and retreating from the force of the blows. Ptui!! Ptui!! He finally slipped up which his opponent promptly took advantage of, inflicting him with 2 deep cuts across the c
