"What's going on, is Rhode holding back?"
At the stands, Hulus scratched his head, straightening his body.
Under a sea of puzzled eyes, the battle erupted once again.
The clashing of Lin Da's Earth Dragon Longsword against Rhode's iron fists sent ear-splitting noises echoing through the cave.
The heretics at the bottom of the platform were dumbfounded.
They realized that they couldn't see clearly the movements of Lin Da and Rhode!

They were generally around level 32, with uneven equipment, mostly a mix of purple and orange.
Compared with Lin Da, who started with orange equipment, they were at a completely different level.
So much so that they doubted whether they were even in the same league as Lin Da and Rhode.
"Once His Majesty the Demon King descends, he will surely award us Legendary Equipment!"
