Chapter 760 - Unfavorable Draw

Chapter 760 - Unfavorable Draw

The ice sword struck the location the Lightning Elementalist was standing, and although he managed to dodge to the right, the impact still forced him back.

Klaus didn't give him the chance to recover and started bombarding him with multiple attacks.

A minute later, he was able to capitalize on the pressure and sent the Lightning Elementalist out of the platform. Putting water on the platform gave him an advantage over his opponent.

The Lightning Elementalist complained about it, however, the man in charge of the platform said it wasn't against the rules.

Klaus defeated his opponent in the space of three minutes, a proud smile appeared on his face as he turned to look at Grey's platform, hoping he was the first.

'I should've known.' He thought with a sigh before looking at where they usually seat, Grey was seated there as if he wasn't even involved in a battle.

'Did he even fight or did his opponent give up immediately?' Klaus asked himself as he walked to their seat.

Other than the duo, no one else had gotten the victory. This was an astonishing accomplishment since the duo had the lowest stage currently in the competition. Other than them, the others were either in the Eighth stage or the Ninth stage of the Overlord Plane.

Grey and Klaus had successfully made it to the top twenty-five, just like their friends did.

Seeing them advance so easily made the others look at them with apprehension. If the two friends took the first and second spot once again, they would feel embarrassed.

In the presence of thousands of geniuses, only four friends managed to dominate the entire competition. The others couldn't help but wonder if this would also happen if they had any friends in the Early stages of the Overlord Plane or even the Origin Plane. Would they also be able to dominate the battles?

Some minutes went by, and the others started to win one by one. After almost twenty minutes, all the battles finished. The first round was completed, now it was time for the remaining forty battles.

Three hours later, the battle for the top twenty-five ended. In the current top twenty-five, two people were in the Seventh stage, five were in the Eighth stage, while the rest were in the Ninth stage of the Overlord Plane.

The fact that Grey and Klaus who were the ones with the lowest stage were among the favorites to take the first and second spot was beyond comprehension to most of the people here. They could see that they were powerful, but why would people in the Seventh stage be this powerful in the first place?

The participants were called out to draw lots once again. Since there were twenty-five people left, it would be arranged in the same fashion as the Mid stages rankings. There would be twelve battles with one of the battles being a three-way battle.

When they drew lots, the person who would be taking place in a three-way battle was, Grey.

Klaus wasn't that lucky either, he would be fighting against one of the young ladies who was lauded to be one of the people who could rival them for the top spot.

This young lady was already in the Ninth stage of the Overlord Plane, and her strength was nothing to joke about. Klaus was certain that if he wanted to win this battle, then he would have to go all-out.

The lots were not in the favor of Grey and Klaus who were tagged as one of the favorites. Grey's opponents would naturally not give him the chance to fight against them one on one, so they would immediately team up to take him out. Klaus fighting against a powerful Ninth stage Overlord Plane Elementalist would be his toughest battle so far.

The participants were given a two hours break.

Grey had his usual indifferent look, even after realizing both his opponents were powerful Ninth stage Overlord Plane Elementalists who had managed to get into one of the Factions.

If not for the fact that people knew there was no way to rig the lots, they would've said these people wanted the downfall of Grey and Klaus. Most of the people in the crowd were hoping Grey and Klaus would replicate what Alice and Reynolds did.

But with their current opponents, they didn't have much hope.

"How do you think they will perform in this round?"

"I don't know, but it will be very difficult for them to advance now. If they manage to do so, then they would become the favorites to get the two top spots."

The crowd were all engaged in conversations as they spoke about what Grey and Klaus' chances of advancing were. Some felt this might be the end of the road for the duo, while there were a few who felt Grey and Klaus would pull off a miracle and advance against all odds. Since the battles weren't many, there would be one battle each. So everyone could watch all the battles without worrying about which battle to watch.

Grey was once again going to fight first before Klaus.

Two battles took place before it got to Grey's turn. In the two battles, one lady in the Eighth stage managed to advance, defeating an opponent in the Ninth stage. She was one of the surprises so far.

Grey stepped on the platform, looking at the two people before him.

Kyle looked at the battle and asked, "How confident are you guys that he would win?"

"One thousand percent." The trio replied without hesitation.

In a battle against multiple opponents, Grey was even more dangerous than when fighting against one person. He would be able to use his space element to its fullest, and also use his inscriptions as well.

To be honest, putting Grey in such a position was no different from giving him the victory. He would win in a position like this nine times out of ten.

The man in charge of the platform looked at Grey and the two others, and after confirming with them, he called for the start of the battle.
