Chapter 565 Luna From The Apsara Palace (1/2)
A sudden echoing of someone's admittance of defeat filled the battlefield with deafening silence. Immediately, an exchange of confused looks and blank faces scattered all over the area. 'What on earth happened?' they all wondered. In the blink of an eye, the duel had already concluded before anyone could absorb how much strength the two rivals possessed. None of them was quite able to grasp how intense the clash was.
But anyway, they wouldn't get surprised no matter who had won in the end. In everyone's eyes, both Ricky and Garrett were skilled and powerful warriors.
”What the hell is going on?” ”Seriously? The battle had just begun, and now it's over?” The warriors finally shook off their stunned reactions and were able to speak. Then, everyone in the area, both humans and beasts, began to whisper in disbelief.
”If we're not mistaken, it was indeed Garrett's voice just now. So Russell should be the winner,” some of the warriors then claimed with confidence.

Maybe signing a bonding contract with him and serving him would turn out to be beneficial to me, ' he couldn't help but think.
Scar wasn't the only one trying to absorb what just happened. 'I knew he would win, and my intuition didn't fail me this time. But who on earth is this guy? And what are those fancy skills these two guys have been using to fight for the Saber Hall? I have read none of them in the archive of the Apsara Palace. How strange!' Luna thought with a frown as she stood on the platform of the Sword Hall.
As she watched Ricky reappear slowly, curiosity and a fighting spirit revealed themselves in her clear and beautiful eyes. Totally ignoring Garrett, Luna poured all her attention on Ricky.
Despite their difference, Luna had one thing in common with other geniuses—only the winner would intrigue them and catch their attention.
”Shall I take some actions, Garrett?” Jim asked Garrett using his telepathy at this point.
”Thanks, Master Jim, but there is no need. I have lost and we have to accept that. Besides, we shouldn't make a fuss here. It will only hurt the reputation of our Garuda tribe,” Garrett replied calmly, like he didn't care about the result of this battle at all.
”Got it,” Jim answ
