Capítulo 556: Shall We Get Started?

Throughout the arena, dozens of fights were taking place amongst the participants who had joined the trial. By now, over twenty fighters had been eliminated, either by knocking out of the arena, or by incapacitation.

After eliminating her opponent, Iris did the opposite of what was expected of her. After exchanging some words with John, she jumped out of the arena to return to her seat. Her actions surprised all, as they had expected her to fight for the central pedestal.
