Chapter: 1185
Those from the Glenstead martial arts alliance laughed while those from Balerno struggled to rein in their anger.
Some even left in disappointment since there was no point watching anymore.
"What’s going on, Sir Reeds? Aren’t we winning too easily? This is getting boring." Conrad smiled mockingly. His words were like knives to the heart.
"That’s odd. Why are the Balerno martial artists so weak?" Brutus was puzzled.
He had participated in the last tournament, and both sides had been evenly matched. But Glenstead was winning too easily today.
"I heard that three of their contestants were poisoned, so they just grabbed three fighters to fill in the empty seats," Conrad answered with a smile.
"They were poisoned? Who was the culprit?" Brutus was surprised.
"Who knows? It wasn’t me, at least." Conrad shrugged.
Although he wanted to win, he couldn’t resort to such despicable tricks.
Meanwhile, in the Balerno gazebo, Ronald turned to look at Dustin and Jared: "We can’t afford to lose again. Which one of you is confident enough to win?"
"I’ll do it." Jared volunteered before Dustin could.
"Are you sure?" Ronald raised an eyebrow.
"We’ll be doomed if we rely on him. I’m the only one with a winning chance against Oscar now!" Jared sneered at Dustin.
He realized that relying on the substitutes to tire Oscar out had wasted time. He had to face Oscar himself.
"Alright. We’re counting on you." Ronald patted Jared’s shoulder.
"I’ll definitely win!" Jared leaped onto the boat and headed straight toward the arena.
"Hey, look! It’s Jared!"
"Good luck, Jared! Make us proud!"
"Jared will be able to defeat that arrogant bastard!"
Boulderthorn disciples perked up when they saw Jared-even the martial artists who had been. leaving stopped in their tracks.
Now that their strongest fighter had appeared, they hoped he could save Balerno’s reputation.
"Who are you?"
As Jared stepped onto the platform, Oscar swung his spear and pointed its head toward him.
"Jared Yancy. Twelfth on The Heavenly Immortals." Jared glared at Oscar.
"I see." Oscar narrowed his eyes, his expression turning serious.
