”Xiaoru, I can't just sit here and wait. Let's start practice.”
Seeing the Patroclus' power, Wang Tong's patience was wearing thin. He conceded that he would have only a slim chance of winning the fight if he were at 100%. Without a full recovery, Wang Tong doubted the fight would last long. It would be such a pity to end the fight after he had come so far.
”Hey, kiddo! You better lay low” Mr. Wannabe appeared out of nowhere.
”Master, your body needs to rest.” Charcoal agreed.
”Do you think I can just sit and let myself be defeated? I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don't push myself now.”
Ma Xiaoru was the only person who truly understood where Wang Tong came from. It would be a fight between the heir of Rilangalos and Blade Warrior. It was going to be a hell of a battle if Wang Tong did not fully recover by then.
A real warrior would never back down from a fight no matter what the reason was. The next fight was not only a fight for the Blade Warrior, but also for Wang Tong himself to conquer a powerful foe such as Patroclus.
”Well, I'm sorry to bring this to you, but you don't stand a chance against him. You might have had a chance if I had met you three or five years earlier.” Mr. Wannabe said with a solemn face and credence.
”It's not that bad, Mr. Wannabe. I think Wang Tong can still win the fight” Ma Xiaoru replied.
”A fight? You have mistaken. This is a WAR!” Mr. Wannabe rebutted.
”A war?”
”Yes. Patroclus had that craziness in his eyes. He was looking for a bloody brawl, and if you show up limping and injured, it would aggravate him and make him want to take your life. ”
”You talk too much, Mr. Wannabe. I will only be truly defeated if I give up. ”
”As long as you know what's coming... It's your call, but I still strongly recommend you to give up the next fight.”
Although Ma Xiaoru was taken aback by Patroclus's ulterior motive, she had long sensed that Patroclus was up to something more sinister than what met the eyes.
She reckoned that Patroclus had used his last fight against Lie Jian as a perfect warm-up. Now, he was more ready than ever. So much careful planning had been done by Patroclus to secure the fight against Wang Tong that if the latter showed up unprepared, the let-down alone would become the reason for murder.
”Don't give me that sour look. I will be fine! I am the heir of the Blade Warrior, remember?” Wang Tong relaxed and announced. Mr. Wannabe faded out of sight as he thought that there was nothing more to say. Regardless of the outcome, bards would sing songs about this fight for generations to come.
Despite the concerns that weighed heavily on her mind, Ma Xiaoru plastered an encouraging smile on her face.
No doubt the final fight of the tournament would attract million's attention. The arena had already started the preparation work to turn the fight into an extravaganza.
As workers decorated the stage, everyone was convinced that the winner would be Patroclus. The activity on the moon was more than the combination of that on Earth and the Mars. Those earthlings who still lingered in the arena would be watching the fight without much anticipation of Wang Tong's victory. That being said, Wang Tong had already won their hearts for being able to come this far while starting out as a no-account.
Most Martians had already left the moon. Only a handful of them remained, and even fewer of them would attend the final fight.
