章 111: Finale(for ambiance, blast on your favorite battle music)

Alex and the prince slowly climbed back to their seats.

There were only 16 contestants left in the martial competition.

The gap between the skilled and less-skilled imperials was narrower now, so the battles were more exciting than ever.

Time passed by quickly, and the sun was slowly shifting westwards.

The audience was louder and louder, and no one left their seats.

Food vendors had set up stalls around the seating area to accommodate the hungry spectators, who didn't want to miss the next battles to fulfill their biological needs.

Soon enough, the number of contestants further halved, and halved again, until there were only 4 contestants in the competition.

The host excitedly announced the next battle, "Black Horse, Prince Aadityapal, against Blessed by fortune, Prince Arjun!"

The other prince gained his title because his match-ups were always against the weaker contestants, and he only reached this point because of that.
