Chapter 463 - 463: Third Stage of the Martial Arts Tournament - Part 2

When Nanda returned to the ark, she saw a corpse on the ark's floor. She couldn't help being surprised by what she saw. With a face that looked a lot like Shrek from the movie, with green skin and a disproportionate mouth, the corpse had his eyes wide open. Even dead, he still carried a shocked expression as if he didn't believe what he was seeing.

"Theo, what is that?" Nanda pointed to the green man.

"Oh, that..." Theo laughed and said, "This cultivator came from another planet and tried to use illusions to try to poison me to discover my secrets, then to kill me, but in the end I used illusions and poisoned him with his own 'medicine'. I then read his mind, and when he became useless, I killed him."

"Geeeh… To think such a thing would happen." Nanda was speechless. This situation could not be more controversial. Theo was an expert in the illusion technique, and someone tried to use illusions against him but ended up taking his own poison and was killed. This situation was the same as trying to put out a fire by throwing gasoline on it...

Theo laughed and said, "You can't blame him, since few know what I'm capable of."

"That's true." Nanda nodded.

"Did he come alone?" Nanda's sister Aine asked.

"Yes, it seems that whoever sent him was very confident in the skills of this cultivator and did not send reinforcements," Theo said with a wry smile.

"Even though he was confident, he was a fool to come to a different planet alone." Ariana said what she thought aloud.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Theo placed the cultivator's corpse in his storage ring and said, "It's almost time for Zenia to enter the arena."

"True." Ariana and the rest agreed and looked in the direction of the arena. In the arena, two young men were fighting fiercely.

Looking like a missile, a young man with pink hair ran towards a black-haired man at full speed. In the pink haired man's hand, there was a fire dragon. He shouted, "Take this!"

*Booooom!*

The other young man was unable to defend himself and was thrown some meters away. It turned out that the damage was very high and the young man was forced to leave the arena.

After a round of applause, the Presenter of the martial arts tournament called the next participants to enter the arena. This continued until Zenia's turn finally came.

"The next participants are Zenia vs Wiliam!" As soon as the Presenter said this, the audience received the two with a round of applause and were soon silent.

Zenia was small and cute, and her pair of panda ears made her appear even more cute. She looked at her opponent and made a serious expression. It appeared she would be fighting a 20-something man with dark skin and black hair.

"Take it easy with me," Wiliam said with a smile that was not a smile.

"Nope, I will do my best!" Zenia said with a determined look.

Wiliam frowned, but smiled again with a wry smile. "Oh, really?..."

"Start the fight!" The Presenter shouted.

The atmosphere in the arena soon became tense. Zenia was instantly surrounded by a blue aura.

Strangely, when the fight started, Wiliam appeared behind Zenia and attacked her in the back.

*Pow!*

Zenia, who did not expect this, was sent several meters away and fell to the ground with blood dripping from her mouth.

"Sorry, did I attack too hard?" Wiliam asked, but in the end, Wiliam burst out laughing at Zenia.

Zenia got up from the floor and was alert. She didn't know how Wiliam ended up behind her without her noticing.

Wiliam tried to divert Zenia's attention by throwing a fireball to the left side, but Zenia was able to glance and see that Wiliam turned into a shadow and crawled on the floor.

'So that's it!' Zenia felt that she unraveled the mystery.

Wiliam turned into a shadow and slid on the ground towards Zenia. He figured he might as well catch the enemy off guard as he did before and even manage to strike a blow strong enough to disqualify her, however, the enemy he encountered was Zenia. She often saw Lilith training and saw her do what Wiliam was doing now, so she wasn't going to be so easily fooled the second time around.

"!"

As soon as Zenia shouted those words, a whirlpool of water formed, and it soon became a tornado of water, spinning at an amazing speed.

Wiliam was amazed to see this scene. He tried to escape, but there was no more time. Even though it looked like he became a shadow and would not be affected, that was totally wrong thought, since his physical form was still there, it just blurs attention of him from the direction to the shadow.

"I'm screwed..." Wiliam murmured and tried to create a counterattack to try to defend himself, however, he didn't have enough time to create a strong enough counterattack.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

As soon as Wiliam's body came into contact with the tornado made of water, he was dragged, going towards the edge of the arena. He was unable to get out, as he soon realized that this water also had a sticky substance that trapped him and made him spin too fast. He screamed in fright as he spun.

Outside the arena, the tornado broke up and participant Wiliam was disqualified for stepping out of bounds.

"The winner is Zenia!" The Presenter shouted.

"..." Zenia closed her hands tightly and let out a contented sigh. She found herself under a lot of pressure, as there were many people watching.

Returning to the ark, she was received by a warm round of applause from Shina and the rest and was hugged by Kelly who congratulated her with a loving hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Zenia only came to back herself after a long time. She rubbed her cheek, remembering Kelly's sneak kiss just now.

The feeling of being kissed hard on the cheek was a little strange. It was really an indescribable feeling. It was a shame it was too fast; she couldn't feel it very clearly then...

When Zenia thought about it again, her face immediately went red again, while she secretly scolded herself.

Oblivious to what Zenia was thinking, Kelly, smiled at Zenia and showed her a playful tongue.

The martial arts tournament continued, and the Presenter announced that the next to compete would be Shina against Little Emma.
