Chapter 2337: The Coins (1/2)
“The tournament for the last two spots will take place first As for the first three spots, each sect will duke it out with another one Tinners will confirm their spots after the first round, while the two losers will fight again for the last one”
After announcing the rules, the officials proceeded with the draw
As the sect’s representative, Han Shuang quickly saw Fiendstar’s name come up, as well as the identity of their first opponent As luck would have it, it was the sect of the bald felloho’d previously insulted her
Not one of the absolutely strongest factions, it was nevertheless far more famous than Fiendstar and easily ranked in Crimsonwaters’ top seven
“Heh, Sectmistress Han, e have such a shared destiny” Old Zhao the Seventh licked his lips and leered lasciviously
Han Shuang was a little disgruntled to run into such a thorny opponent right off the bat
What the Golden Glyph Sect lacked in raw strength, it often obtained unexpected victories thanks to its ingenious use of glyphs and talismans
She would’ve preferred a lesser foe, if possible
“Gentleht awaits us, but it doesn’t mean our chances are nil We only need three wins out of five, so those of you confident in the odds, please raise your hands”
Jiang Chen and Jiang Huan looked at each other before slowly doing so
Scowling, Elder Ge and Elder Xu rebuked, “Gentle There’s a spot at stake, so don’t overesti Chen chuckled “And hoould you know that we are, elders? What are you, mind readers?”
His retort struck the two old men speechless
“Hmph! Sectmistress, you better carefully consider all of the variables before deciding on our overall strategy Don’t let certain foolhardy people ruin it all” Elder Xu snorted lightly
“Cut it out,” replied an annoyed Han Shuang “Strategy? What’s the use if we’re elio? Truth be told, I would’ve been more relieved to see you two step forward as well Since you don’t have the guts for it, why are you trying to hold back others?”
Han Shuang didn’t think Jiang Chen and his uncle were guaranteed to win, but their aplomb was far more preferable to the two elders’ cowardice
Elder Xu and Elder Ge fumed “If that’s your stance, then so be it Just don’t hold us responsible when our sect’s eliminated”
“If we fail, it won’t be because we took a risk, but because of lack of strength” Jiang Chen calmly countered “All their tricks are powerless if you’re powerful enough in the ring Sectmistress, what about you? Are you up for it? Me and my uncle are ready to brawl”
Han Shuan smiled at him, secretly happy with his confidence “Of course I am I’m the sectmistress, so I have to lead by exauys just do your part ”
Jiang Chen smiled “Great, the Golden Glyph Sect will be a piece of cake in that case”
