Chapter 651 - Boos (1/2)

The small, separate stages in the Grand Star Luo Stadium had been replaced by a much larger one, which had a radius of about 800 feet and a soul barrier as high as 600 feet. Unlike before, the stadium now allowed one match to take place at a time, be it a one-on-one, a two-on-two, or a team battle. There were several huge screens hanging high above the stage to give the audience a much clearer view. It had taken them a good three days to set up all of this.

The final knockout stage had attracted the most audience as always. They were now sitting in the stands, chatting excitedly and waiting for the fights to begin.

So many contestants had signed up for this tournament in an attempt to reap money and fame. Needless to say, the 64 of them who had made the final stage of the one-on-one compet.i.tion had gotten both. They had successfully caught the attention of the talent scouts from many large organizations, and if they managed to advance to the next round, their prize money would double.

Three of the 64 were from the Shrek Academy. Five were from the Monster Academy, which was a record low.

Now they were all waiting in the same waiting area equipped with 64 luxurious single couches. A dozen pretty and spirited young waitresses were walking around with smiles, holding trays of dessert and drinks. They were showing off their voluptuous figures and trying to chat up every male compet.i.tor, in the hope of making the young talents fall for them. If they ended up getting married to them – which had happened before – they would most likely have a bright and carefree future.

“That waitress makes six. Which one of these lovely girls is going to spend the rest of their life with you, Captain?” Xu Xiaoyan asked, smiling.

They had been sitting here only a short while, but already six waitresses had come over and asked Tang Wulin if he'd like some dessert or drinks.

When it came to looks, no one here could compete with Tang Wulin. He was young, handsome, and strong; few women could resist his appeal. Dai Yueyan was also very attractive, but these women knew that the future emperor wouldn't take an interest in them. As for Long Yue, he was strong, to be sure, but his bald head and the scary vibes he constantly gave off served as nothing but a woman repellent.

Tang Wulin smiled wryly. “Focus on the compet.i.tion, Xiaoyan.”

Dai Yun'er's mouth twisted in contempt. “What's wrong, Yun'er?” asked Dai Yueyan, who was sitting beside her.

Dai Yun'er gave a snort of disgust. “These waitresses are acting like they've never seen a man before!”

“Don't mind them,” Dai Yueyan smiled. “Have you figured out how to defeat Tang Wulin?”

“Of course,” she said, shaking her little fist. “I'll make him beg for forgiveness, but he won't receive any!”

Long Yue laughed. “Attagirl! I'll be rooting for you. Teach him a lesson!”

“According to the matchups, I'll fight him in my second match. That's if he wins his first match,” said Dai Yun'er. “I'll teach him to mess with me!”

Dai Yueyan could see that she was just acting fury, so he shook his head.

The students of the Monster Academy were under more pressure than those from the Shrek Academy, for they were much older and had home-court advantage. They couldn't afford to lose in front of so many people who were cheering for them.

The champions.h.i.+p of the one-on-one compet.i.tion is as good as ours, thought Dai Yueyan, but the Shrek Academy will make us look bad enough, if even only one of them makes the top four. We have to stop him. I have to stop him.
