Chapter 68: The Ranking Battles (3)

The fight ended with a clear winner. It was as I expected—I didn't even break a sweat to defeat Gene. The victor's euphoria surged through my veins, but I knew I couldn't afford to revel in it for long. A resting period of 20 minutes was granted to me before my next match with Winand Klee.

As I caught my breath, I scanned the surroundings. The auditorium was a grand spectacle, adorned with towering pillars and intricate tapestries. The soft glow of magical crystals illuminated the space as the sun was gradually hiding behind the horizons, casting a vibrant aura over the huge auditorium. Many other matches were currently underway, capturing the attention of the spectators. However, my focus was solely on Winand, who had already arrived and awaited our impending duel.
