Chapter 176: Chaos
Waiting for the first round of competition to be over.
Sixteen contestants were eliminated.
Prince and Cordell advanced one after another.
But the two of them were not very happy. Instead, they stood together in the first row of the auditorium with ugly expressions.
Prince learned about his younger brother Qiao An's elimination, and it was also because Qiao An was defeated face to face by Gillan.
This incident brought him unparalleled pressure and made him feel depressed.
And Cordell did it because he saw his own brother, Reno An.
"Why would he come to compete..."
The handsome black-haired young man gritted his teeth.
As the second son of Stavin, the Minister of Propaganda of the Empire, he has always been under the spotlight of his elder brother, not recognized by his father and not well known by the public.
Even though Cordell has been trying to get out of his brother's shadow, it's all to no avail. Because Renaudian Lotito is a true genius.
Leno An is two years older than him. He has graduated from the "Ludo Palace Academy" and is now an intern at the Imperial Military Department. His grades in school have always been among the best, especially in fighting, spear and wand skills.
At only twenty-one years old, he is already a heraldry-level staff master and a fighter.
Regarded as the "Muse Star" by major media and newspapers, he is a star figure in the upper class circles of the capital and is recognized as the future of the empire.
Many powerful people like to use the term "Hiru Warrior of the New Era" to praise Minister Stavin's outstanding eldest son.
Prince and Cordell didn't deal with each other at first, but now they both feel a sense of sympathy for each other due to the pressure from their "brothers".
After only fifteen minutes of half-time.
The second round started again soon.
Prince and Cordell were queued at the back. They stood in the audience and stared directly at the two young men among the six players on the court.
As the referee's whistle sounded.
Beep!
But soon, the audience was heard in an uproar again.
“One move!”
“Another one move to defeat the enemy!”
"Who is that young man?!"
"Oh my god, it's incredible..."
Hearing the surprised comments from the gentlemen and ladies around him, Prince's eyelids jumped.
This time he saw it really clearly.
Gilan indeed only used one move. As soon as the cane came out, the opponent had no time to react before the weapon was released and he fell to the ground.
It's both shocking and full of weirdness.
He and Cordell looked at each other, both speechless.
Because Renoir also defeated his opponent in less than ten seconds!
Perhaps due to his brother's deterioration in fighting spirit, Cordell performed abnormally after taking the field and unfortunately lost. Prince, after a hard battle, advanced to the quarterfinals.
But in the next round, Prince once again witnessed the terror of his elder brother.
Still a move!
It seems like adults and children are playing!
Wow!
The whole audience exclaimed again.
On the stage, the opponent was lying on the ground, looking at the back of the blond young man slowly leaving with a confused look on his face.
Prince was almost numb.
In the private room on the second floor.
"Wow!" Milinda clapped excitedly. "Brother Jilan is so awesome! He won easily with just one move again!"
Nancy and Miss Dedel were smiling, their eyes full of surprise.
If Qiao An's defeat was just an accident, then this second and third performance could not be an accident, but a real crushing of strength.
Zigui and Frans on the side were also surprised.
"Is that Brother Gillan, like Lenoir, also a 'Heraldry' level wand master?"
Frans said in disbelief.
At this time, there was a knock on the box door.
Tuk Tuk.
Nancy went and opened the door.
Behind the door were Qiao An and Cordell, who were looking depressed because they had been eliminated.
In addition, there is a petite noble lady behind them.
"Miss Osara?" Nancy was very surprised. "Aren't you not interested in competitions such as stick skills and fighting?"
"Sister Nancy." Osara greeted her and smiled slightly. "I heard that Sister Dedel is here too, so I came over to join in the fun."
"Osara."
Everyone in the box turned to look, and Miss Dedel smiled gently and said hello to her best friend.
Wait for three people to come in.
Osara walked quickly to Dedel's side and asked curiously and expectantly:
"Sister Dedel, what round is it already?"
"Hey, why are you suddenly interested in these?"
Dedel was a little surprised.
But soon, she thought of something and joked:
"Could it be that there is someone you follow among the contestants?"
"Well... that doesn't count. La.”
Osara twisted and hesitated to explain.
Soon, Dedel looked stunned.
It turned out that this best friend had been depressed at home after being deceived by Vittorino, so a social dinner was arranged for her at home.
Coincidentally, it was also at the dinner that Osala met the genius eldest son of the Propaganda Minister's family, Renoian Lotito.
Perhaps it was the young girl Huaichun who immediately developed a strong interest and affection for this dazzling young man. I came here to watch the game this time, saying it was just to join in the fun, but in fact a large part of the reason was because of Renoan.
"Already the semi-finals."
Seeing Osara's blushing face, Miss Deidier said softly without teasing her anymore.
"Mr. Renohan advanced. In addition, there are Mr. Gillan, Prince and Hart Norman, a genius from another academy."
Hearing that Renohan advanced to the semi-finals, The smile on Osara's face grew even bigger.
But she quickly regained her composure and said in surprise:
"Ah, is Mr. Gillan also participating?"
"Yes." Didier nodded. "Perhaps, Mr. Renohan and Mr. Guillen will meet."
Hearing this, Osara looked confused.
For a moment I didn’t know who to cheer for.
On one side is Mr. Gillan, who saved him, and on the other side is Mr. Renohan, whom he has a good impression of.
At this time, Milinda, who had been quietly observing, said suspiciously:
"Osara, do you also know brother Jilan?"
"Yes." Osara looked at her and nodded. "Some time ago..."
She was about to explain, but Dedel poked her in the back.
Seeing Sister Dedel shaking her head calmly towards her, Osara realized that she couldn't keep her affairs public.
So she changed her words:
“Some time ago, Sister Dedel introduced me to Mr. Gillan, and we had a meal together.”
“Yeah, it turns out Miss Dedel is not interested in Brother Jilan."
Milinda looked regretful.
"I thought our two families could get married..."
Everyone present looked at each other, but they all smiled.
Everyone knew Milinda’s temperament, so she didn’t say much.
Not long after.
As the bell rang, the fourth round began.
According to the elimination system, this can be regarded as the semi-finals.
Prince faced off against Lenohan and Gillan faced off against Hart Norman.
Compared with the confrontation between the first two, the latter two are more eye-catching. To be precise, it was the blond young man named Ji Lan who attracted everyone's attention.
In the first three rounds, he only made one move.
With one move, he easily won the game.
No one can understand this unrivaled strength, which is even more dazzling than the genius of Reno An.
The hundreds of gentlemen and ladies present were all staring at Venue No. 1.
Hart Norman is a tall man of 1.9 meters, with short brown and red hair and a delicate face. He held a cane made of cherry wood with a steel core, and stared at the blond opponent with sharp eyes.
He also saw the previous three rounds.
He was horrified by the opponent's strength.
But after all, he is also a young talent from the "Kingdom of Triumph Academy" and a senior "teacher" level staff master. It is impossible for him to give up without a fight.
Hart Norman was thinking about countermeasures.
But looking at his opponent's expressionless face, holding a bronze cane, and standing loosely, the corners of his eyes twitched.
It was obviously full of flaws, but it gave him an unfathomable and extremely dangerous feeling.
Beep!
The referee blew his whistle.
Hart Norman was frightened and planned to take the initiative.
He stepped on it, and his whole body flew like an arrow...
Poof!
Hart Norman's expression froze.
With trembling eyelids, he looked down.
A bronze cane covered with embossed patterns was pierced on his right arm holding the cane, and the blunt tip of the cane was in the center of the elbow socket.
Suddenly, he only felt that the right half of his body had lost consciousness.
The fingers loosen automatically and the steel core cane falls.
Soon, the whole person fell sideways.
thump!
What happened? !
How could I...
No wonder...
No wonder all his opponents dropped their weapons and fell to the ground!
That’s what it feels like!
As long as you take one hit, you will lose your fighting power!
Is this some kind of secret stick technique? !
Wow!
The entire audience was in an uproar again.
One move!
It’s still a move!
Although the fighting process is missing, this scene is even more shocking.
Many gentlemen and ladies stood up abruptly, applauding and casting eager glances at the blond young man on the field.
Gilan was indifferent to the noise and sight around him.
Carrying the cane of justice, he walked off the stage indifferently.
He did not come to the competition for the so-called praise and fame. To him, these are not even as good as a cup of sticky bark milk tea.
Jilan glanced at a box on the second floor calmly.
What he did was an invitation to the dinner after winning the championship...
