As the referee's words fell.
Wow!!
All the spectators suddenly realized.
Goodness!
The Fusang Kingdom had actually switched the commanding position to the Yamata no Orochi ahead of time!!
"Amazing! I've learned something! If we encounter Norton and don't want to get wrecked, we should do this too!"
"Agreed, if our team meets Norton's, we'll switch commanders first as well!"
"I have to say... it's really smart! Otherwise, Momoka Gojou would have been utterly humiliated today!"
"..."
Everyone praised Momoka Gojou's cleverness.
She must have understood Norton's brutal nature very well.
No matter who he faces, Norton always wants to torture his opponent to death.
Momoka Gojou angered Norton by refusing to submit.
So if they met on the battlefield, Norton would definitely target Momoka Gojou.
The facts proved her right.
If she hadn't switched the commanding position...
Momoka Gojou would have been stripped naked and forced to kneel in humiliation before Norton.
At that moment...
Whether as a woman or as a candidate for the future captain of the Ghost Extermination Squad, Momoka Gojou would have been utterly disgraced.
"So, Mr. Norton, you should let me go now."
Momoka Gojou looked calmly at Norton.
At this moment, Norton's eyes were bloodshot, and the extreme rage that blocked his heart and couldn't be released filled him with frustration, making him increasingly irritable.
"Fine! Very well, Momoka Gojou!"
"Just wait! When this Beast Wars Tournament is over, I will personally visit Fusang and have a good time with you!"
Norton sneered angrily.
In the end, he forcefully suppressed his rage and released Momoka Gojou.
He left the secret realm with his team.
Momoka Gojou's delicate face was cold as she watched Norton's back.
But deep inside, a deep sense of fear...
And despair for the future arose.
This time, she had narrowly escaped disaster thanks to her cleverness...
But...
With Norton's brutal and vengeful personality, he would undoubtedly come to Fusang with his men, and she would still be unable to escape death.
Don't be fooled by the current division within Fusang Kingdom, with the Ghost Extermination Squad seemingly holding the upper hand...
That's only because the Free Federation hasn't intervened yet.
When Norton arrives in Fusang, given his current status in the Free Federation, it wouldn't be difficult for the Free Federation to demand that the Ghost Extermination Squad hand her over.
When that time comes, she will certainly face disaster.
So who can truly suppress the now fully transformed Norton?
Suddenly...
A cold, aloof, and slender figure flashed through Momoka Gojou's mind...
She lightly bit her red lips.
No matter what!
For her own safety, she had to give it a try!!
...
...
The third round of the competition concluded.
But the fear Norton brought to the audience resurfaced.
Feeling the continuous waves of fear from those around him, Norton, leading his team off the stage, grew increasingly confident.
Even the fear he had felt earlier when being crushed by that non-specialist was completely swept away!
Yes...
That non-specialist!!
He must avenge himself!!
In his first battle after his complete transformation, seeing the Fusang Kingdom team's collective helplessness, Norton's confidence swelled like never before!
As if guided by some strange force...
He led his team to the Dragon Kingdom's preparation area.
"Where is that non-specialist brat?"
Standing tall like a mountain, Norton coldly looked down at the few girls before him.
The few girls before him...
Were Li Chaoge, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.
Situ Yalan, the Ice Crystal Snow Phoenix.
And Ling Zhan's three divine beast girls.
As for Ling Zhan...
There was no trace of him.
"Sorry, he's not here."
Faced with Norton's arrogant shouting, Li Chaoge simply replied calmly.
"Where did he go?"
Norton asked in a deep voice.
The violent emotions that were supposed to be vented on Momoka Gojou during the match against the Fusang Kingdom were suppressed.
Now he wanted to flaunt his power in front of that ignorant brat, to vent his anger, but he wasn't here!
"Where he went is none of your business!"
Yun Man replied coldly.
"Exactly! You, a defeated loser, dare to come here and shout? Who was it that my master beat into the ground like a dead dog?"
Meng Shuang waved her little fist, baring her small teeth, mockingly ridiculing Norton.
"Damn it!!"
Already at the brink of rage, Norton cursed instantly.
Buzz!
Terrifying chaotic energy instantly surged toward the girls!
"Norton, you're getting one warning!"
"If you dare to make a move offstage, your competition qualification will be revoked!"
At this moment.
The referee's cold eyes fixed on him.
This forced Norton to reluctantly suppress his anger.
However, at this moment, a mocking, icy smile appeared on Li Chaoge's cold, beautiful face.
"You want to know where Ling Zhan went?"
"I'll tell you, he found it boring and went to drink milk tea."
"In other words..."
"A barking dog like you isn't even worthy of his attention!"
"He doesn't even have the desire to watch your match!"
"What's laughable is that you still have the nerve to come here to flaunt your power..."
"Ask yourself, after getting beaten like a dead dog in the individual match, do you think you're worthy now?"
"Pah!!"
The cold words, like sharp swords, were spat out from Li Chaoge's red lips.
Of course...
The final 'pah' was added by the little girl Meng Shuang, who jumped beside Li Chaoge.
Even at this moment...
Many spectators around them were looking at Norton with a speechless expression, and whispers spread.
"Tsk tsk! Last time he barked like a dog in front of them, only to get beaten so badly his mom wouldn't recognize him!"
"And he's back again!?"
"What do you know? This is called getting stronger with each defeat!"
"You need thick skin to get stronger with each defeat. At least if it were me, I wouldn't have the face to keep flaunting power in front of them!"
"..."
"Fuck!!"
Hearing the crowd's mocking words.
Norton's eyes bulged as he was about to make a move.
"NO! NO!"
"Brother, don't!"
"Please don't!"
His teammates quickly grabbed the furious Norton.
"Brats from the Dragon Kingdom! Don't get cocky! You'd better pray you don't run into me!"
"Or I'll make sure you kneel and cry for mercy!"
The Free Federation team members left these harsh words.
Pretending to push Norton away.
But everyone knew, now Norton didn't dare to make a move and was unwilling to be ridiculed, so he was just putting on an act.
This was much more humiliating.
"Hehe! Like putting green onions in a pig's nose, trying to look cool!"
The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox squinted with a smile.
"By the way, where did Ling Zhan actually go?"
Li Chaoge suddenly asked.
Saying Ling Zhan went for milk tea was actually a lie to Norton.
Because she didn't know why Ling Zhan left at this moment either.
"My master went to talk with Princess Saint Luni."
Sitting on a chair, swinging her little legs, Meng Shuang said with a pout.
"Hmm? Princess Saint Luni?"
Li Chaoge frowned her beautiful eyebrows.
Saint Luni?
Why would she come to find Ling Zhan at this time?
"Xiao Shuang, lead the way."
Li Chaoge couldn't be bothered to watch the match anymore.
Thinking of Princess Saint Luni's always alluring and seductive face, she couldn't stay calm.
Could it be that she wants Ling Zhan to go easy in the upcoming match?
