Chapter 170 - Ranked Third, A Sudden Challenge!
Chapter 170: Ranked Third, A Sudden Challenge!
In the first round of battles that occurred, almost all the victors were at the level of a peak six-star God.
Finally, the last five contestants were chosen!
Seven-star High God Fang Tian, the peak six-star Goddess, peak six-star God Li Hai, peak six-star God Ji Yue, and five-star god Sullo!
Apart from Sullo, the remaining gods were all six-star gods, and one of them was even a High God!
Sullo’s presence as a five-star God made him stand out amongst the crowd and become their target.
Once the first rounds of battle were over, the quarterfinals would begin!
All the gods would once again engage in battle!
This would determine the Gods who would be fighting in the semifinals, and there would be another empty lot to draw as well.
As such, everyone was called to draw lots before their fight.
Just before they were allowed to take their picks, one of the Gods who did not like Sullo began to express how much he would beat up Sullo if they were paired together.
After all, they were all six-star Gods or higher. It felt like pure luck that someone like Sullo had actually managed to continue on in the competition after so long because the differences in power between a five-star and six-star God was definitely a gap that could not be bridged overnight.
Thus, all the gods believed that the only reason Sullo had managed to reach this stage was due to his luck!
While the other Gods besides the Goddess were not fond of Sullo, they were forced to bite their tongue and endure this discontent.
Now, the second lot draws had officially begun and the Gods all took turns in drawing their opponents.
To everyone’s surprise, it seems like Sullo had drawn a blank lot yet again!
It seemed like Sullo was destined to enter the semifinals!
After seeing the draw results, all the gods were inexplicably angry.
All the gods were furious as they slandered Sullo’s luck, believing that some external force was involved.
Hearing their complaints, the sovereign expert overseeing their battles unleashing a terrifying burst of power, instantly suppressing them!
“What a joke! How can you say unscrupulous things are happening behind the scenes in a competition that I myself am hosting? Are you saying that I’m picking favorites amongst all of you?”
Under the sovereign expert’s might, the competitors did not dare to complain any longer. After all, a sovereign expert could easily end them with just a single strike!
However, the sovereign expert decided to speak further so that they would not be discontent.
“Since you aren’t satisfied, I swear in the name of God King Mu that I am not personally siding with any of the Gods here! If I violate this oath then God King Mu himself will personally execute me!”
Hearing the sovereign expert make such a promise, all the Gods present immediately shut their mouths. After all, an oath sworn under the God King’s name was one that could not be broken without severe consequences!
Even their powerful sovereign expert host would not dare to do anything to anger the God King!
Thus, the competition continued and the Gods began to prepare themselves for the next fight.
The sovereign expert had a cold expression on his face as he divided the battles accordingly.
The second round of battles had officially begun!
The matches were essentially the peak six-star Goddess versus Ji Yue, and seven-star High God Fang Tian versus Li Hai!
There was hardly any suspense during the second round of battles.
After all, Fang Tian was still an unscalable mountain to the rest of them.
It seemed that the most suspense would be the battle on the Goddess’ side versus the second ranked genius on the throne list, Li Hai!
As the second ranked on the throne list, Li Hai had power that was close to that of a High God.
That meant that even if the Goddess used all her strength, she still wouldn’t be able to match up to him!
However, the Goddess still managed to display her splendor despite her loss at the end. She fought fiercely against Li Hai, who was close to the High God ranking.
In the end, she was defeated!
Of course, the Goddess didn’t let Li Hai relax too much. He had suffered quite a bit of damage during her attacks despite his victory against her.
After that, the Goddess went up to Sullo and said, “Haha, do your best. It’s all up to you now. Even if you’re just a five-star God, I believe that you have the capabilities of defeating the other Gods here!”
Faced with the Goddess’ encouragement, Sullo revealed a faint smile.
“Haha, I’ll try my best not to let you down!”
On the second battlefield of the semifinals, Fang Tian was paired up against the peak six-star God, Ji Yue!
However, it was clear that Fang Tian was not taking their battle seriously at all and considered it a casual sparring match instead.
His terrifying divine power instantly pressed down on his opponent, causing him to be unable to move at all.
It was then that the genius Fang Tian began to mock his opponent’s sorry state!
“Hehehe, is this all you can do? You’re too weak. Hurry up and go home to train even more! You’re just a weak six-star God!”
Faced with Fang Tian’s provocation, Ji Yue became extremely furious and unleashed his own Law Profound attack!
A terrifying power began to erupt as it lunged toward Fang Tian in an all-out attack toward him!
“Hehe, is that all you can do? This is too funny!”
Just by using an ordinary attack, Fang Tian was able to avoid the attack and eliminate his opponent. His terrifying power as a High God was definitely a winning factor for him!
At this point, the group battle had completely ended and the last three competitors remained!
They were High God Fang Tian, peak six-star God Li Hai, and the five-star God Sullo!
While all three of them were powerful, Sullo looked like a fraud in the eyes of the others due to his status as a five-star God.
After all, even other six-star Gods had been eliminated while Sullo had managed to advance all the way to the finals.
This was far too ridiculous!
Since there were three Gods left, it was impossible for them to draw lots any further!
Thus, the sovereign god hosting the competition decided to change the rules!
They would have to fight one-on-one battles with each other and the first to obtain two victories would be the final victor!
As for the remaining two gods, they would compete for second and third place!
After the sovereign expert had announced this, the other two Gods revealed a faint smile.
Since it was Li Hai who had originally declared war against Sullo, Li Hai believed that crushing Sullo would be his way to obtaining victory in this competition!
After all, he was definitely not Fang Tian’s match so Sullo was definitely the God that he needed to deal with first!
“Hehe, a mere five-star God dares to stand side by side with us. Don’t blame me for being merciless!”
