The fifth round wasn’t kind to every participant. More than 600 participated, but only about 500 of them even managed to enter a colosseum. Out of those only 238 people passed. Close to fifty people died during the battle with the villainous beasts.Every party from the major or notable sects somehow managed to either survive or win the round.All the winners were told to gather at the Setting Spring Pool, where pet animals of the Evergreat sect peacefully enjoyed time together at the mountain top as the sun set in the distance, creating a beautiful scenery that would be hard to take one’s eyes off from.Nevertheless, many people refused to bathe in the pool generally used by pets. The female disciples especially were grossed out by it.Dubril Zha had to persuade everyone to give it a chance. “I’ve gone to painstaking efforts to clean the pool and get it refilled with the Thousand-Year-Cloud Rain. So, I hope that you check its freshness yourself.” He took some of the pool’s water into

At dawn, the participants all gathered at the sky stadium that was built overnight. With over 40,000 square meters for the arena, and more than 400,000 seats for audiences, its sheer size was mind boggling to look at.Many of the 238 participants were all warming up their bodies as they were told that the sixth round would be one-on-one matches. Though it would take long to finish the round this way, the Red Roses Sect still chose this method, so there was nothing else the other sects could do but follow.As minutes passed, some of the participants were just sitting in their chairs and didn’t look healthy at all. Tenzai was also among them, and he was clutching his belly because his stomach had been upset since last night. He initially thought it was just him who had to do the runs since last night, but now, he realized that he wasn’t alone. Many others also had the same problem. After discussing with each other, it didn't take long for them to narrow down to the culprit.It was the Ro

Edgar vs Pankaj.“A core disciple vs an outer disciple? This can’t even be called a fight.”“But the outer disciple is from one of the four great sects, and what about this Muddy Flower Sect? I’ve never heard of it before. Maybe the core disciple of that sect is no big deal?”“Only a dozen or so outer disciples managed to reach this round, so this fight could be interesting.”The merchants discussed among themselves.Joan Morales, the patriarch of the Muddy Flower sect, was smiling. “It’s just an outer disciple, but it’s still a good opportunity to gain some name. Thrash that outer disciple so hard that everyone will be left speechless, Pankaj.”Pankaj was the first to enter the new arena. With a flower hairstyle and with a peaceful look on his face, he managed to get a good first impression from many of the audience.Edgar, on the other hand, was still in his seat because Fabby tightly held his hand as if telling him to not go.“If things get dangerous, I’ll stop, Sis,” he assured.S

“Knock him out of his senses, huh,” Pankaj dashed toward Edgar. “I’d rather knock the life out of him!” Fabby jumped out of her seat. The distance between her and Edgar was much greater compared to the distance between Pankaj and Edgar. Moreover, two core disciples of other sects blocked her path, saying, “You shouldn’t intervene.” “Nonsense!” Fabby growled. “He’s my little brother!” She tried to go past them even if it meant that she had to wrestle with them. Pankaj already reached Edgar by that point. Edgar, who was unable to stand up straight because of the pollen released by Pankaj’s fists, looked like an easy target now. “I’ll crush your head to a thousand pieces!” Pankaj mercilessly threw his ruby-fist down. Suddenly, a thundering noise echoed in the sky, and a lightning bolt came down and struck Pankaj in the blink of an eye, shocking almost every disciple watching the match. The sky was clear, so where the heck did such a strong lightning bolt come from? Many disciples w

Dwarves took pride in very few things such as their ability to drink, to hammer iron and steel, to walk on hot coals, and to also have the courage to take a hit to the nose. Whenever a dwarf did something wrong, they would often get hit in their noses, because their noses were made for taking a beating. They were not stone-hard but were more rubbery. This was why dwarves were capable of sneezing long distances, and they could even breathe freely in a smoky coal chamber. They were literally built to breathe even in volcanic regions and work in mines deep underground. Nole obviously took great pride in his hook nose, which was quite popular among dwarven ladies. He had taken many hits on his nose and was confident of even blocking a sword with it. However, all that confidence was utterly crushed now because his beautiful nose was flattened from a single hit from Edgar. Of course, it wasn’t the strength of Edgar that did it, and it had more to do with the heavenly hammer! Nole’s cover
