章 141: NOW I CAN'T GET THAT QUADRUPLE STACK BURGER

NOW I CAN'T GET THAT QUADRUPLE STACK BURGER

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!

That's the sound of the alarm from a distant megaphone. Then it was followed by an announcement.

"The first part of the tournament has ended! We now have the 32 candidates who will advance to the next round!"

I looked at my chest, and I was surprised that my Gate Plate has not been triggered yet. Atlas' blade is just an inch away from my chest. If the battle royale lasted even for a split second more, I would have been eliminated. Guess I was saved by the bell.

Atlas wordlessly turned around and walked away.

Suddenly, a gigantic Gate opened in the skies which pulsed and immediately teleported us back to the Earth Realm.

We're back at the Black Cross Mansion Hall, and there, all the 32 remaining candidates gather. I was glad that Kristoff and Drex managed to advance to the next round. They all greeted me with their smiling faces.

"Eeeeey! You made it, Tiara!" Drex gave me a fist bump.
