The Medallion -
Chapter 1490 Rocky Versus Edgar (Part Two)
With that, this representative admitted defeat in less than an hour, which shocked everyone present. Even Knox took more than two hours to make his opponent yield. However, since the people weren't totally convinced of Rocky's strength, they assumed that it was just a fluke.
Soon enough, the four warriors who were advancing towards the next round were determined. They were Ramon from the Sword Spirit Sect, Knox from the Grand Sky Sect, Edgar from the Sovereign Pavilion, and Rocky, who was disguised as the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion.
"Right now, I will draw the pairings that will face each other in the next round. The winners from these battles will gain the spot for the final battle!" Hannah announced as the audience grew curious about the match-ups.
There was an uproar in the crowd, knowing that the battles would definitely be fierce and they would have a chance to witness such a good showdown. Of course, they were actually assuming that Knox and Edgar would face off in the finals if they wouldn't be paired in the upcoming round.
Therefore, everyone was at the edge of their seats as they waited for the names to be drawn.
Then, Hannah began to draw the names. Even she was nervous because this would affect the final result.
After taking out the first two names, there was an evident change on Hannah's face. She couldn't help but frown, seeing that she drew the worst pairing for the Sword Spirit Sect. However, since it was already drawn, there was nothing that could be done to change it.
Hence, she showed the names to the people and announced them. The first competitor was Ramon, and his opponent would be Knox. It also meant that Rocky's opponent would be Edgar from the Sovereign Pavilion.
"This is such an unlucky turn! Ramon is actually paired with Knox first, and Basil will be up against Edgar. The window for winning the final match is very slim! I originally hoped that Ramon and Basil will be paired in the upcoming round to ensure that he could enter the final match without any problem..." Timothy's eyes narrowed as he gazed at Rocky. He knew that Edgar was not an easy opponent. He had amazing talent and was also the last disciple of the current sect leader of the Sovereign Pavilion. It was said that he had learned many of his master's unique skills, so Timothy thought there was no assurance that Rocky could win against him.
Of course, this was also what everyone was thinking. With the announcement of the match-ups, everyone thought that the final pairing was already decided. In terms of strength, even though Ramon was an excellent warrior, Knox was still far superior to him. At the same time, between Edgar and Rocky, the people didn't even know Rocky's real strength, so it was just expected that they were counting him out. After a while, everyone left the area excitedly and couldn't wait for tomorrow's battles.
Although Rocky knew that Ramon didn't have a good chance of winning over Knox, he decided not to go and see Ramon. He thought that what Ramon needed most right now was to calm down and think carefully of a way to deal with his opponent.
Then, the following morning came quickly. Even before the appointed time of the battle, the Sword God Square was already filled with people. After all, the battles today were the most crucial ones. Benedict, the leader of the Grand Sky Sect, was also present together with his son.
He strongly believed that Knox had the capability to win it all. With his victory, Benedict would be able to make Hannah a member of their sect, which would give him the power to bring the Sword Spirit Sect into their control. For him, it was just a matter of time before that happened.
At the same time, the members of the Sword Spirit Sect were deeply worried about Ramon's chances. After all, Knox's strength was undeniably strong. Even though Ramon's performance in his previous battles could also be considered outstanding, he would still fail in comparison with Knox.
Even so, the members of the Sword Spirit Sect weren't ready to give up as they clung to a string of hope. After all, they had no other choice but to do so.
Of course, no one among them not even Harrison-knew of the fact that Timothy secretly made some arrangements for Rocky to participate in the competition.
Not long after, the four representatives appeared and they went on separate stages where their fight would be held.
Since the two sites were separated, the four representatives had no way of knowing the result of the other match, unless they had already finished theirs. This was to ensure that the competition would be fairly carried out.
This also paved the way to let the spectators choose which match-up they would watch. However, as expected, most of them went to the stage where Ramon and Knox would fight. They felt that there was no suspense in the battle between Rocky and Edgar, so they didn't want to waste their time watching a predictable fight. Even the members of the Sword Spirit Sect thought the same way.
At that moment, Rocky and Edgar stood at the center of the ring.
Edgar seemed to be a young talent with a very stunning appearance. Therefore, their audience was mostly comprised of female warriors who were cheering for him.
"Well, it seems that Mr. Su has a lot of fans around here," Rocky teased as he heard the screams of the female warriors.
"They're here out of their own volition. It's not like I could stop them from doing what they want," Edgar answered arrogantly.
"It must be good to be a handsome guy like you. Unlike me, I'm rather ugly that I can only cover my face with this mask," Rocky said as he sighed.
"Anyway, I saw your fight yesterday, and I could say that it was no fluke. I actually look forward to fighting you seriously. I know that I can't underestimate your abilities. Therefore, I also decided that I'm going to go all-out!" Edgar exclaimed.
"Please do so!" Rocky answered with a faint smile.
All of a sudden, Edgar took out a Beast Spirit Jade and threw it into the air. As the jade shone brightly, a cyan-eyed white tiger instantly flew out the next moment. It was huge and sturdy, and it gave off such a domineering aura as if was the king of all beasts.00000
