Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The masked man's third round started . He would be part of the top twelve if he could defeat his two rivals .
Since he was the first one to have caught the attention of the old man in the gray robe, half of the people present were gazing at him when he got into the ring . He'd become terribly popular .
He had to be ranked at least 19th on the Eternal Flame List, since he had defeated Princess Crimson Moon .
Among those who hadn't finished this round, only a few were in the top nineteen .
Most of them were nervous when the masked man's rival still hadn't been decided . Whosever wooden token lit up, they would probably be eliminated .
Soon, someone's wooden token shone .
He didn't complain, nor did he feel frightened . He looked emotionless . When his wooden token lit up, he was seized with the strong desire to fight .
No one else was as eager to fight as he was . It was a formidable desire .
Even though people recognized who he was and knew he was a combative person, they were still surprised .
"Alas, your apprentice brother is extremely lucky," Meng Feifei said .
Chu Luo shook her head helplessly . Her young lord's opponent was the one who deserved the most serious consideration among those she had noticed, Xue Rentian .
"You insulted the princess . That's a capital offense . "
Xue Rentian jumped into the ring . His black eyes were as sharp as swords .
"You mentioned the Black Dragon City . Another capital offense . "
He couldn't see Jiang Chen's expression behind the mask, but he wouldn't care even if he could . He talked to Jiang Chen arrogantly .
The crowd knew why he was behaving like this .
Xue Rentian, General Xue Jiangtian's son, had been in the war as his father's lieutenant .
He had something the others on the Eternal Flame List didn't have—military experience!
Due to his identity, Xue Rentian regarded himself as the protector of the royal family .
He was extremely unhappy with Jiang Chen, since the latter had taken off Princess Crimson Moon's silk ribbons .
It was said that Xue Rentian, who never drank, was exceedingly drunk on the day Princess Crimson Moon and Ning Haotian became engaged, so the capital people understood why he had mentioned the princess .
As for the Black Dragon City, it was a sore spot of Xue Rentian's that no one dared touch . Otherwise, he would be in a towering rage .
His father, Xue Jiangtian, had been a powerful man on the Master List . More than a year ago, he had gone to the Black Dragon City under orders to suppress the rioter Jiang Qingyu .
Jiang Qingyu had been suppressed by the general and the Black Dragon City in the end, but he had cut off the general's right arm . The general's strength had dropped markedly ever since, until he wasn't qualified to be on the Master List anymore .
Xue Rentian had proposed that they kill Jiang Qingyu or disable him many times to the emperor of the Xia Dynasty .
It wasn't difficult to see what kind of person he was from the these facts .
He was holding a spear with a golden tip and body . It was fifteen feet and two inches long, imposing a shapeless majesty when it was stood straight up .
The size of a spear mattered a lot . Everyone has a different height and arm length . Spears of mass production only applied to soldiers .
A spear master's spear had to be customized .
Faced with this guy's arrogance, Jiang Chen pointed at him and said, "You put on an act and showed off . That's a capital offence . "
His intentional imitation and mocking tone devastated the repressive atmosphere Xue Rentian had caused . Many couldn't help but burst into laughter .
"Some people are arrogant only because they think they're great . It's so sad!"
Xue Rentian was eager to fight, but he looked calm and gentle . His disdainful tone showed his confidence .
"Thunder Shakes the Nine Heavens!"
He waved his silver spear as if he was going to charge forward, unstoppable .
It was a pure spear attack, very direct, powerful enough to pierce everything .
Jiang Chen became a little more serious . This guy was pretty powerful . No wonder he had the nerve to be so arrogant .
