Chapter 76: A Dark Horse
”The next round is the quarterfinals The quarterfinals and the following rounds will all be one-on-one duels The tournament host will be the one who rando arena for them The rules are exactly the same as the previous round,” Noppakorn said
”I can't believe that the preliminary round has taken almost an hour to finish Usually, the result is out within thirty minutes for any round,” Rattana added a comnificantly decreased the nuood for saving us tiin”
Four arenas appeared in the Colosseuy barrier that divided the floor into four parts
After the preliet time to rest for at least fifteen er the resting time one had
In the preliminary round, Sila was the last to becootten the least time to prepare himself However, that wasn't a problem for hiht His health points didn't even decrease He just needed two enerate his power back to full
Ginny was also able to pass the preli her power since Sila had couessed that she must have spent a lot of her power so he didn't interrupt her concentration
”To every contestant, you all need to be prepared You will enter the next round in thirty seconds,” the announce room
Ginny opened her eyes She turned her head to talk to Sila, ”Don't hold back if we get to fight each other”
Sila sh to be able to hold back”
She nodded The two no longer continued their conversation
Soon, every contestant was teleported into the arena By the way, although Sila said he won't hold back if he has to fight against Ginny, he hoped he wouldn't encounter her
It wasn't that he would hold back against a woht hi the battle, otherwise, it would be disrespectful toward the opponent His teacher also told Sila that once they have stepped into a fight, the fighter is just a fighter, nothingless
Nevertheless, Sila had never experienced a direct confrontation against a woh he understood his teacher's words, he wasn't sure whether he would unconsciously hold back
Once his eyes opened, Sila found that he was standing on the grass-field arena There was no notable difference between this arena and the usual one except for the grassy sensation under his shoes
Sila looked at his opponent for this round and felt relief that his opponent wasn't Ginny but a ant white wuxia clothes eolden lines His face was very handso and wrapped in a ponytail, similar to the hairstyle of a scholar in a wuxia novel In his hand, there was a white foldable fan painted with several kinds of flowers
Sila took a look at hiinner Clothes that were made from a cheap brown fabric There were many patches on the clothes froh Julia had seamed thear's Cloak, Sila had unequipped it as it was in his hen he fought
Sila's appearance couldn't be considered good-looking though he wasn't an ugly one His hair was not too short and not too long The only thing Sila did to his hair on a daily basis was coh it one or two tirowing up in a dojo so he hadn't paid attention to being stylish or h he and his opponent were both wuxistyle players, the difference between their looks was unbelievable
Despite how the battle had not started yet, Sila ondering why his opponent still hadn't taken a stance At the very least, his opponent should circulate qi or ready his fornore Sila He aving his hand at the audience on the grandstand
”Kyaaaaa!!!” The girls squealing was resonated fro Sila
The two commentators shi+fted their interest from other arenas to the third arena where Sila was
”Oh, look at that guy, Deity Loainst Player Sila By the way, Player Sila's title is” Noppakorn looked at his systehed, ”Oh, he doesn't possess one”
T/N: In the raws, the original el” Nevertheless, it is a norm for Asia people (or at least in Thai) to use this word to refer to a man who is really handsoht
Noppakorn turned to look at Rattana, ”Please keep your cool, Miss Rattana Be neutral, be neutral”
”Oops, I' myself Well, it can't be helped It's a very rare chance forexpression, ”So, he usually dies when you see hi, Mister Noppakorn? Why do you have to act like this? By the way, aren't you interested in Mister Loer if I'm interested in him I'm a man, you know?”
Lo was echoed throughout the grandstand, ”Kyaaaa Mister Lo his fan”
Noppakorn was fed up with this Although Bluebird had begged hi the tournauild, it was too much to ask him to compliment so like soaze to the arena only to find that all Lo his fan
Noppakorn opened his systely read Lomyok's inforranted the ”Deity” title based on his appearance and the beauty of his otten a wound on his face Some players call him ”Jade-like Deity” It's said that if there was a fe in Monster Soul, Goddess of Purified Water would be a, the first position couldn't belong to anyone but Deity Lomyok”
T/N: Lomyok (pronounce as ”Lom-Yhok”) is a name consist of two parts: Lom and Yok 'Lom' means 'wind' in Thai while 'Yok' means 'Jade' Thus, the alternative to his title 'Jade-like Deity' is a play on the words in his na translated as 'a male deity who has a jade-like face')
Noppakorn closed his syste how the hell the information of this player was mostly about his looks
”Hey, hey, why don't you continue explaining?” asked Rattana
”The rest of the infore our guild's reputation”
”Kyaaa He just sroup of women who sat in the same side, and of course, all of them said that Lomyok had directed his smile at her)
”Miss Rattana, I think we should continue doing our duty to analyze the player and the battle Otherwise, if you squeal every time Player Lomyok clenches his butt, picks his nose, or farts, on't be able to do our job,” Noppakorn said sarcastically
”What? There is no way Mister Lo sha out the exa like that Now, could you please turn your attention to the analysis?”
”Wait, usually, it is your duty to explain the player's background Nevertheless, if you won't do it for Mister Lomyok, I will do it lad if you did it forabout both Sila and Lomyok Rattana could say whatever she wanted
Bluebird had begged hih this plan wouldn't work for long, it could help Sila to soree In the preliminary, Sila didn't show exceptional battle prowess so Noppakorn was able to cover it up
”Well, I, Rattana, will inform you about Player Lomyok's information Based on our source, the true identity of Mister Lomyok is a prince of a small country He is a half-breed and is able to speak es Kyaa!!! How can he be this perfect? Ahe is made of the White Wyvern's fur Our source said that Mister Lomyok had raided it alone”
”Kya Mister Lo could be heard all over the grandstand
”By the way, let me explain about the White Wyvern rather than Mister Lomyok,” Noppakorn interrupted, ”The wyvern is a creature that is close to transforon It varies in species and size Some of the as a dragon For your infor about is five tie rank is Knight Rank Its habitat is unknown If Player Lomyok 'really' did raid it alone, his ability would certainly not be too bad”
Rattana pouted at Noppakorn, ”It is surely the truth By the hat are you saying? Not too bad? It's a wyvern, you kno many players do you think are able to hunt it alone?”
