Today was the official last and final day for the tournament and Tang Yue had two matches in total for the day.
All she needed to do was win one of them!
Tang Yue reached the training grounds early in the morning and prepared herself mentally.
So far, she had gained tremendously in participating in these matches, and considering that her last two opponents would be even stronger, she was extremely excited.
Little Blue also energetically laid next to Tang Yue wearing a similar smug smile on its face.
Since it was a low-grade beast by birth, it had a certain amount of intelligence and could grasp a few things happening around it.
If nothing else, it was sure about its master's awesomeness without a doubt!
The duo followed by Lotte loitered around here and there for a bit, when finally Tang Yue's jade slip glowed brightly, indicating that it was her turn.
And this time her match was in the center stage!
Tang Yue was very aware of her own capabilities, so the second she noticed that her match was scheduled in the center stage, her heart rate quickened.
The only reasoning for this would be her opponent!
It looked like her opponent this time was especially strong and powerful.
Otherwise, there was no way her atypical matches would be showcased proudly on the big stage.
As Tang Yue eagerly walked over to the center stage, her gaze met the General's stern eyes, who was looking at her solemnly.
Standing next to General Relmar was another familiar yet intimidating figure General Salvatore, father of a certain someone.
Tang Yue consciously gulped.
Now that she was in the Martial realm, she could clearly feel the overwhelmingly dominating presence of these Saint realm experts.
"What is he doing here?" Tang Yue wondered.
The image of the stunningly beautiful elf crossed her mind, someone who had repeatedly pestered her in the past, but wasn't quite that active lately.
Hmm… Whatever happened to Charlotte? Did that woman go crazy from shock?
Feeling the gaze of the two Saint realm experts, Tang Yue felt slightly uncomfortable. She had a bad icky feeling in the back of her throat.
"Ok. Let's not think about that scheming little fox now. I should focus on the match in front of me."
She quickly put away the disturbing thoughts and calmed her heart.
This time around, she didn't wear her fancy set of armors, and simply wore her two most powerful armors.
As an added precaution, she also wore Xander's amulet, which was capable of withstanding three attacks from a Saint realm expert.
Tang Yue then retrieved her rare-grade venom coated long sword and promptly climbed on to the stage. She was ready.
Ruff… Ruff… Little Blue growled loudly and cheered for her and Lotte as well wished her good luck.
Tang Yue smiled at the duo and patiently waited on the stage. Her opponent hadn't arrived yet.
Since it was the last day of the tournament, quite a huge crowd had gathered around them and everyone was gossiping loudly as they waited for the match to start.
Tang Yue could clearly see the several faces staring at her with mixed emotions.
Some seemed to look at her with pity, but most had an angry arrogant expression as if she would finally be getting what she deserved in a few seconds.
After all, everyone knew that the center stage fights were nothing to scoff at.
Since she had relied solely on cheap tricks to get this far, they wanted her to fail miserably.
Tang Yue chuckled.
More often than not, the several people in her life had always rooted against her and had only wished for her to crumble and fall.
So these kinds of looks were not exactly new to her, and it didn't affect her very much.
Her gaze was unwavering as she stood firmly with her arms crossed and her sword gleaming in the bright sunlight.
A few seconds later, another figure suddenly emerged in front of her.
Tang Yue couldn't help but gasp slightly.
It was the black-hooded guy!
Her heart rate quickened, as she was nervous and excited at the same time.
She knew first hand that this was a strong and ruthless opponent.
Unlike others, this opponent was unmistakably a well experienced Emperor realm expert!
Tang Yue tightened her grasp on her sword as she adjusted herself into a defensive pose.
The crowd around her and the presence of the two Saint realm Generals was already forgotten.
Everything faded in the background, and her emerald eyes only fixated on the opponent in front of her.
The person had their head bent down low, half-covered by a hoodie, so Tang Yue couldn't see the face clearly, but a strong violent aura overflowed from the figure in front of her.
What a powerful aura!
Gulp. Tang Yue badly wanted to see who was this person. She found herself getting more and more excited.
A few more seconds trickled by, with the two opponents silently standing still, when the gong finally sounded.
And then suddenly, the black hooded figure moved.
He or rather she looked up at Tang Yue and loosened the outer robe, revealing the familiar tall and slender figure of a beautiful elf.
But this time, instead of standing in her usual bright-colored gown, she was instead adorned in armors as equally strong and impenetrable as Tang Yue's.
Charlotte?
Pfftt…
Aha Ha Ha Ha.
Unable to hold herself back, Tang Yue uncontrollably giggled out loud, clutching her stomach.
This big unveiling had surprisingly become somewhat anti-climatic and even comical.
Tang Yue rubbed her temples. In hindsight, she should have seen this coming.
"Greetings sister." She chuckled and mumbled, still trying to hold back her laughter.
Compared to her amused and charming appearance, Charlotte was fuming with anger.
She had originally expected Tang Yue to be utterly dumbstruck and trembling with fear, but here she was… leisurely greeting her… and even laughing like a maniac...
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Charlotte gnashed her teeth.
