Chapter 323: The Plight And The Decision (2/2)

While most of the contestants cast thrash-talk and dirty looks in Zhao Yao's way, the Explosive Man had his eyes fir of the North

”When does the second round begin?” he asked i of the North replied, ”Everyone must be tired after the first round Let's take a half-hour break After that, ill coin in the woods as well It will last an hour After the hour is over, the contestants that have ed to secure a sapphire will proceed to the last round”

The Explosive Man glowered at Zhao Yao, Xiao Yu, and the Serval before walking away

He thought to himself, ”I will have all three sapphires in hand Then, I will be crowned the Cat King”

He paid little regard to Zhao Yao's powers To hied to scrape past the first round because of underhanded ood luck They were not the actual co Zhao Yao as well The first round felt alh the first round Unfortunately, the Explosive Man stood in his way for no good reason His telekinesis was powerful enough to subdue hiovernment official, he could not do so

”I must secure the sapphires in the next round”

Zhao Yao did not pay any et of He focused on getting ready for the next round instead

First, he carefully pulled a balaclava over his head, then strung a surgical mask over his face There will be a tussle later and he did not want to accidentally reveal his true identity if some rascal was to pull off his cloak

Xiao Yu clenched her hand into a tight fist She also assue's only ability was to become invisible This led her to believe that the responsibility of winning the co battle would rest on her narrow shoulders

She looked intently at her fist, which dissolved into a phanto Nekomata's power

”I'll have to do my best”

To Zhao Yao, she said, ”Once the second round begins, we'll enter the woods and throw the sapphires in front of everyone They'll all fight for the sapphires When that happens, I'll cover you and get you out of there You don't have to be afraid I will never let anything happen to you If not, your mom will kill me”

Xiao Yu knew that her spirit poould be able to literally keep both herself and Zhao Yao out of an opponent's grasp Once they were safe, she could start thinking about how to get her hands on a sapphire

Zhao Yao did not say anything in response He merely smiled

It would be a lie to say that he was not feeling any pressure or worry He had never had to fend off so many apostles and supercats at once

However, he did have a lot of tricks up his sleeve If he kept a clear head and used the right skills the right way, victory would be his

”Invisibility would be useless now I can't evade all of the after all The opponents ht not be able to see him, but they could definitely touch hi Hao and his half beasts could easily detect his scent to locate him Chimera and Explosive Man could set fire to the woods Yue Shan could identify his whereabouts with his telekinesis

”I could conjure an illusion or s myself into the belly To create a realistic illusion, it would have to cover all the senses Inspector Ho would be able to associate that with et Gaia to help again…”

Zhao Yao passed the first round using deception He could very well do the saht course of action

”If I don't actually show some of ,” he men would serve as the leader of all supercats It was only fitting that the strongest would deserve this position He would need to show that he had the capacity and ht of a commander

Zhao Yao had always operated froned in his powers so that the true extent of his powers remained secret

This was his opportunity to finally unleash his full power He could feel a buzz of excitement

The corner of his lips lifted into a sht et this over and done with”
