Chapter 575
The tournament continues and many have shown their trump card when facing those stronger than them.
On the other hand, Joaquin continues to challenge those with higher seats than him and currently, he is ranked 10.
Due to the draconic power of his familiar, his prowess when they merged rose to another level and he can beat a peak of 8 stars using his physical power.
Such speed and strength shocked the viewers and many believed that he was the only one who could defend against the little ancestor.
Each contestant had a right to challenge opponents 4 times only.
After 3 straight battles, he won them dominantly without doing anything. Just the aura of his familiar gave him an advantage.
After that, he decided to rest; no one could challenge him.
He also decided to probe others first because he only had 4 chances to fight and needed to remain in the top 10.
After 5 hours, ten top 10 are chosen.
===============
Ranking
Rank 1: Caryll Alexander-Aquaria Continent
Rank 2: Konrad Leaf-Leaf Continent
Rank 3: Vonna Steel-Steel Continent
Rank 4: Hannah Aquaria-Aquaria Continent
Rank 5: Gerome Mist-Mist Continent
Rank 6: Kera Leaf-Leaf Continent
Rank 7: Berdan Aquaria-Aquaria Continent
Rank 8: Reizel Aquaria-Aquaria Continent
Rank 9-Joaquin Aquaria-Aquaria Continent
Rank 10: Hundo Steel-Steel Continent
==============
The top 10 remain in their seat.
No one challenged the top 5 and when it was their turn, they only passed to conserve their energy except Caryll because she tried to challenge everyone except Hannah but they surrendered and didn't fight her.
No one is a fool to exhaust their energy.
Only Caryll is excited to fight and she has a lot of fans cheering for her.
She dominated the tournament.
Even the previous champion Konrad surrendered and didn't try to waste his energy to fight her this round.
On the other hand, some tried to challenge Hannah because she looked weak but when she fought Gerome from the Mist Continent, she beat him in one punch.
It was the first time she showed her fighting prowess because she won easily in other rounds.
Her prowess shocked them and they didn't expect that someone as monstrous as Caryll was also from the Aquaria continent.
She is not as destructive as Caryll and her actions are gentle but her powers make others wary of her.
They didn't show their familiar and they are hiding it for the last round.
Sarah and the other wizard kings were stunned and they didn't expect that the lineup of the Aquaria Continent this year would be strong.
Even if they can't win the top 3, the fact that 5 of their contestants manage to enter the finals is the first time in history.
Half of the contenders come from the same continent and it shows that they are geniuses in their way.
Sarah used this chance to be smug and continue to mock others thinking that she could finally vent her frustration because they were always at the bottom before.
....
Final Round.
It is now the final round and a lot of supporters from every continent are cheering for their representatives.
The final round is a 1v1 round and the contestants will draw lots of whom they will face.
If one is defeated, then they are eliminated already so everyone cannot surrender easily.
After the 5 geniuses won their battles, the second phase of the final round is the same but one of them will draw lots again and the one who won is already one of the top 3 winners.
It sounds unfair but luck is also a part of each strength and this rule has been used by the wizard kings since before.
Even though they are lucky, the fact that they can enter the final round means they qualified so no one dares to question it.
.....
Caryll first stepped up and since she ranked first, then she would be the first one to fight this round.
She walks slowly and there is no nervousness nor hesitation in her eyes but full of anticipation.
She was eager to show off her full powers but she never managed to use her full power because the others surrendered easily and some could not last one punch from her.
Everyone in the arena is nervous because being chosen by the little ancestor means elimination.
Even the previous champion Konrad, who said to get an ancient scroll inside the Ruins is wary of her prowess.
By far, she and Hannah never showcase using a spell or summoning a familiar.
It means that she never gets serious so almost everyone is aware that Caryll is already one of the winners.
If she came from other powers or clans, they would try to curry favor from her but she had a terrifying master who even makes the 5 wizard kings afraid.
Caryll smiled as she looked at the number she got and saw it was number 5.
Gerome Mist and a prince from the Mist Continent.
The face of the wizard king of the Mist Continent was ashen because his grandson, the prince was the only one who managed to enter the final round in their continent, and being chosen by Caryll is a certain loss.
"Haha, what a good luck."
Gerome was beaten badly by Hannah and now he was going to be beaten again by Caryll.
Eruda laughed and she could not hide her joy seeing that it was not her candidate chosen by Caryll.
"Hmmp, let's see."
The Mist Wizard King snorted and he gave his grandson some treasures and means.
Knowing how monstrous Caryll was, he was prepared and bled some treasures for his reputation.
"Oh, you're confident in your grandson old man? Why don't we make a bet."
Dave smiled.
Seeing the Mist Wizard King's confidence, Dave wanted to make a bet again.
'Fvck, bet again? Is your head full of bet?'
If it was before, he might bet against him but this lunatic is crazy.
He can bet his life so betting against such a person is not good for him.
He also owed him one favor due to his losing before in a bet so his face is bitter.
'Heh'
Dave smiled and he ignored the old man and looked at the opponent Caryll would face.
'Hoh, he broke through 9-star mage? But his foundation is damaged.'
Dave shook his head and now felt that this old man was hasty.
He destroyed the future of the young man by forcefully making his breakthrough.
Even though he reached 9-star mages which is considered to be a powerhouse below Wizard King, there is still a difference between those who had a solid foundation.
He is destined to remain stagnant at this level.
