Chapter 98 Round One, Finished!

Time passed as Zevien eliminated two more people after ten minutes, but he didn't use any spells against them!

The audience was startled after seeing his fine and fluid martial arts!

Zevien maneuvered and flew quickly to dodge and move as if his life depended on it and eliminated others purely using his martial arts!

Punches and Kicks! Tricks and Techniques!

…

In Starlight City, Zenith Corp. building's ground floor, main office…

Dan, Erica, and Vernisia were also watching the live broadcast of the contest.

"Hahaha, Zevien sure is on fire! He is actively hunting other participants," Dan laughed in excitement, "and he is getting better!"

"Yep," Erica nodded as she clenched her fist, "Dan, Vernisia, how about we go to the Arena tomorrow? We also need a real pro-level fighting experience, and we should get it soon."

Vernisia nodded with determination, "let's go tomorrow for sure!"

"Ladies, you know that the Arena won't have physical protection like that," Dan said wryly, "although we won't die, serious injuries are inevitable. If you are fine with it, then we will go."

Erica kicked Dan in the ass and snorted, "you think we can't endure pain? Humph, for your information, we both can endure more pain than you!"

"Yes, and we have lots of money now, so we can afford expensive healing methods to heal ourselves," Vernisia clenched her fist.

"Ok, ok, we will go tomorrow," Dan weakly smiled as he rubbed his bum before saying to Erica, "can't you hold back a bit?"

Erica raised her eyebrows, "are you sure?"

Dan coughed and turned his head towards the TV to watch.

Vernisia was surprised and asked, "what's going on between you two? Don't tell me you two also…."

Dan remained silent, but Erica grinned and nodded, "well yeah. We are in a relationship now. Have been for a month already."

"Waa, I didn't even notice until now," Vernisia was startled.

Erica rolled her eyes, "how would you notice us when you were so absorbed with Zevien?"

Vernisia chuckled as she agreed and smiled, "hehe. Congrats, you two."

Dan smiled happily and nodded, "thanks. But this princess is hard to please. I am doubting my feelings now."

"You need more beating!" Erica snorted and kicked him again.

"I am joking! You know how much I love your kicks, no? Ouch…"

Vernisia felt that there was something strange. Dan didn't seem that opposed to Erica beating him, 'don't tell me he is a M...?'

Shaking her head, Vernisia looked at the screen and said quickly, "Zevien encountered another participant!"

…

*Swoosh…*

Dodging the hurling boulders narrowly, Zevien arrived beside the slim male participant and swooped down while doing a leg sweep to make him fall before spinning with the help of his wings and hand to execute an Axe Kick.

The man's badge didn't break. Surprised, he pointed his hand at Zevien to use a spell. But Zevien's hand was already in front of his belly with a purple orb conjured in front of it.

"Sad," the man muttered as the purple orb hit the barrier and broke the badge. He diffused his spell before standing up and leaning on a nearby tree, waiting for an enforcer to pick him up.

On the other hand, Zevien flew away after destroying his badge.

"Alright, I have recovered enough mana by now. Time to continue with quick eliminations," Zevien grinned as he soon found his next target. By now, he had formed his perfect strategy to eliminate anyone he encountered quickly.

At first, he stayed on defense with the mindset of countering the enemy. But now, he was going to attack first and force his targets to be on the defensive!

*BOOM….*

He released two purple orbs from afar towards his target.

After seeing them, the twin-ponytail girl decided to dodge, but Zevien was approaching with his fast speed and also released a Nyxite Claw to her dodging location.

The girl gritted her teeth and waved her hand to release a spell called Cross-Wind Blade, a fast and deadly tier-2 spell, before using a defensive barrier to block Nyxite Claw.

Best

Zevien narrowly dodged the Cross-Wind Blade spell and let his Nyxite Claw destroy her barrier instead of passing through because he had released Blackout Bubble right behind his Nyxite Claw!

*Crack...BOOM*

The girl knew her barrier might get destroyed, so she was already prepared to release her offense-type awakening spell, Corrosive Harbinger. However, she was struck by the Blackout Bubble spell before she could use it.

The girl screamed in terror and flayed around crazily because she couldn't sense anything! All of her senses were nulled! She couldn't see, hear, or even feel anything on her skin. All her five senses were gone.

*crack…*

The next second, Zevien finished her off by releasing two purple orbs and destroying her badge.

The girl regained her senses after three seconds, but those three seconds were like hell.

"W-what was that spell?" the girl stammered as she asked.

Zevien grinned as he covered himself in his usual aura and flew away without answering her.

'I am getting better at fighting! In a way, this is my first time fighting for so long with other humans. The experience gained from such situations helps a lot,' Zevien said in his mind while smiling.

"Meow~! That's why I am telling you to be more challenging!" Tarto chimed in, "hehe, another fight coming soon."

…

Zevien continued hunting for more people, and after landing his Blackout Bubble, he quickly eliminated his opponents.

By now, everyone was impressed with his gutsiness since he was the only one actively hunting others!

Time passed slowly for the audience but quickly for the participants...

After two hours, only sixty people remained in the forest. But the round went on for another hour before the last ten people got eliminated.

"It is finally over, hahaha," Melissa laughed dryly, "I would say it is thanks to Alucard that it ended early, or we would have been more bored."

"BOOOOO! All those who were hiding are cowards!"

"Seriously, damn! That one fucking guy didn't fight anyone and won. Hopefully, the next round is quick and straightforward."

The audience was in an uproar.
