"The winner of the second semi-final match is... LONG TIAN!"
"…"
No one had any idea how to react; they were either too scared or too stunned to even care about the event. Even the most seasoned warriors, like the heads of the four families, found it difficult to imdiately react in such a situation.
Do they cheer for the young man?
Humans are hypocrites by nature. Even though they hated Long Xiang and wanted him to die after hearing him vow to kill anyone who challenged him, after seeing the man die in such a cruel way, they looked at Noah as if he were the villain.
"Such inhumane thods…"
"Do we really want soone like that to protect our empire?"
Those who snapped out of their daze started to whisper among themselves. So of the won in the stands cried and even vomited at the sight of the dead body of the very person they had been praying would die.
"He is not any better than that man after all."
Hearing the whispers from the crowd, Noah remained unfazed; his gaze turned to Long Xiang's body.
Woosh!
With a wave of his hand, blue flas engulfed the body, burning it to dust.

Seeing this scene, the heads of the four families looked at the stage with a mix of pity and concern.
After witnessing the unknown power possessed by Long Xiang, they wanted to search his mind for information regarding its origin and nature, but not only did the man die, his body was burned to dust.
Even though they wanted to intervene, they could not make a move without Wuhan's permission.
Since Wuhan did not stop the boy, they could only pray that their emperor had so kind of plan.
Turning their heads, they saw him signaling to his advisor, who left without making a sound.
[ !! Final Stage Of The Tournant !! ]
"Ahem, now that we've co this far, it's ti to conclude this glorious event with the final fight between the two esteed fighters for the top rank!"
The silence of the audience was broken by the shift of the screen in the air. The glowing interface of the screen caught the eyes of many. Hearing the comntator's voice, they all turned their attention to the ranking.
Upon seeing the two nas at the top, everyone imdiately knew who would be fighting.
As if to confirm their suspicions, the nas on the ranking glowed before another unbelievable change appeared on the screen.
[ Long Xiang V/S Zhong Hua ]
Two avatars, resembling the two finalists, appeared before everyone, causing them to gasp in admiration and awe.
This was the first ti most of the people had seen a grand image projection in their lives.
"Young Miss Zhong will be facing that cruel bastard? Will she be fine?"
"Will that man do the sa thing to her that he did to the previous guy?"
People in the audience could not help but express their doubts. They looked at the man standing on the stage, fear evident in their eyes.
"I don't think so." Just then, a voice interrupted their thoughts. Everyone followed the voice to see an old man speaking.
"Why do you say that?" Everyone around him looked at him with curiosity, waiting for his answer.
"Didn't you see they had a good relationship before? Besides, I think this match is different; both of them seem to have so kind of blood feud between them." The old man spoke with a deep gaze as if he had profound wisdom.
The others also recalled how Noah and the young miss from the Zhong family were talking with each other happily.
"Even if that's true, who knows what the boy might do." Another person interjected as the rest were about to nod to his words.
"He seems ruthless; who knows what he will do to the poor young miss."
Hearing his words, the old man's lips twitched before he waved his hand. "You are thinking too much. As you said, she is the young miss from the Zhong family. The boy won't dare to kill her in front of her father. Besides, the young miss can always forfeit."
"Ah! That's true!" The person realized this point and did not continue to argue but instead said sothing else. "Looks like the outco of this match is already decided."
Hearing his words, the rest also sighed with different emotions. They all knew Zhong Hua was weaker than Noah based on the power she had shown, and there was little chance she would win against Noah.
"Tch, I really wished that young Miss Zhong had won this championship instead of this cruel boy." So of the young n who were jealous of Noah and had a crush on Zhong Hua cursed under their breath.
"Wait!" Before the judge could call Zhong Hua on stage, a voice beat him to it.
The speaker was none other than Noah, who raised his head to look at the comntator after dealing with Long Xiang properly.
"Is there sothing else?" Instead of feeling annoyed that Noah interrupted him, the man asked back calmly without any hint of impatience.
"I want to quit!" Noah smiled behind the mask and calmly declared.
His voice echoed throughout the entire arena, sending the crowd into another wave of shock.
"What? Am I hearing this right?!"
"The boy is quitting a match that he is destined to win?"
"I wonder if he got seriously injured in the previous match, seeing how many blows he took."
Hearing the gasps of shock, even the mbers of the major families doubted their hearing abilities.
"Are you sure about this?" The person who spoke this ti was not the comntator but the emperor of the Feng Empire, Feng Wuhan. "If you are injured, you can take your ti to recover before we continue the match."
Wuhan Flew down from the arena as he stood on the stage facing Noah while glancing at the place where Long Xiang once stood. His appearance caused the crowd to hype up in anticipation.
Noah looked at Wuhan before opened his mouth to speak, "… — "
