Bab 88: The End of the Mercenary Selection

On the next day, the participants received the news that Yusa had given up the chance to fight in the final phase, it was said that she wasn't confident in winning against the other competitors, so she decided to avoid unnecessary injuries by giving up earlier.

Everyone thought that something was fishy, but that was also good. It would be one less strong opponent for them to deal with. After deciding the order of the battles through drawing lots, the final day of fights finally started. Every single cultivator or demon beast would have to fight each of the other contestants at least once. There would be one fight every time, the five mercenaries with most victories would then get a slot for the Martial Gathering each.

The referee came up in the arena and called the name of the first two.

"First fight, Tasier from Borle Continent against Lofa Harcken from Ice Continent."
