John's calm yet firm voice reverberated over the entire stadium, silencing it for a moment as all in the crowd looked towards Alix. He was seated next to the other two Emperors, just below the VIP Elder's, Elder Praxx included, who were observing the battles.
"What? He's actually challenging Alix. Why would he do that after he saw how strong the other two Emperors are?"
"He said he was going to challenge him before the battles started. I thought he was joking, but apparently he was serious."
"He may be incredibly strong, but the Emperors are on another level. If his strength is just what he displayed earlier, I don't see how he can win."
"You're right. The strength he displayed earlier was equivalent to a top Core Disciple, but not nearly an Emperor."
The crowd instantly began to discuss John's challenge, while looking at Alix in the stands.
