Chapter 287 - 142: First Round of the Finals_2
Ling Menglu’s minor frustrations were instantly invigorated by the praises of her two cousins. She rolled her eyes at them before taking a seat first.
At that moment, a figure emerged quietly in the middle of the vast Grand Arena. His appearance came without warning. He was wholly cloaked in black attire, even his face veiled behind a mask.
Could he be a powerful expert from the Assassin’s Temple?
The man did not exude any aura whatsoever. Yet, the more inconspicuous he appeared, the more oppressive he felt to the many members of the reserve demon hunting team present.
A deep voice sounded from the presiding podium.
"Firstly, on behalf of the six Great Sacred Temples, I’d like to congratulate all the students here. You are now members of the reserve demon hunting team. Today is the first round of the final competition of the demon hunting team selection. The judgment will be presided over by a reserved Sacred Legate from the Assassin’s Temple. We hope the eight students entering the finals can fully demonstrate their strength and set a good start for their journey in the demon hunting team."
Reserve Sacred Legate from Assassin Temple? A 9th Rank powerful expert?
Undoubtedly, these were the referees selected with utmost caution by the six Great Sacred Temples for the final competition. The 9th Rank heroes of the Assassins Temple, with their unrivaled speed, can respond to any changes in the arena timely, preventing any real harm from befalling on these top-notch prodigies.
"Eight to four, the first match. From the Magic Temple, Zisang Liuying, and from the Assassin’s Temple, Chu Yu, come forth."
At the sound of the announcement from the chairman’s podium, Zisang Liuying and Chu Yu both stood up and stepped into the arena from the waiting area.
They, like Long Dangdang, were in the upper half of the bracket. In fact, considering the draw, Long Dangdang was fortunate. With his self-awareness, it would be tough for him to win against either Zisang Liuying or Chu Yu.
