Capítulo 606: The One in the Shadow - I

"Why are there three fourth-stage participants this time?" a drunken adventurer grumbled, "Is Whistling Legion really that great?"

"After so many years of selection tournaments, haven't you figured out the trick yet? It's obvious that Milo or the Duke of Azuregold arranged for them to stir up the odds!"

"Well said. So, who did you bet on?"

"Haha! I bet on all three fourth-stages!"
