Chapter 211
It was such a familiar feeling. A cold gleam showed in Jiang Chen’s eyes. He drew his sword back and stepped back.
The darksteel arrow flew over before him and gathered a strong wind. He heard the whooshing sound a few seconds later.
The arrow came so suddenly that no one had anticipated it.
The spectators thought it was from General Xue Jingtian at first. Then it occurred to them that the general only had one arm, so it would be impossible for him to shoot any arrow.
They took a deep breath when they saw who had shot the arrow.
“The Third Prince!”
They were most impressed by his arrogance, since he had the nerve to interfere with the competition before so many people.
The other people were also curious about what he was going to say.
Jiang Chen ignored him and looked towards the palace wall. He spaced the words for emphasis, “Senior, I want to skip the draw and fight with the Third Prince in the next round. The fight won’t end until one of us dies.”
It was as if the temperature had dropped below zero. The atmosphere suddenly froze. No one dared make any noise.
The Third Prince and Xue Rentian, who were still in the ring, had unreadable expressions, especially the latter, whose mouth and eyes were both wide open.
He had thought himself tough, but he had to admit that the masked man was tougher than him.
He had never thought someone could talk like this before this day.
The spectators finally realized the masked man didn’t want the Third Prince to be eliminated, because he wanted to kill the latter.
Many people became emotional. They raised and waved their arms.
The Third Prince had irritated many people in the Fire Field since he was constantly condescending to people because of his identity as a prince, but no one dared do anything to him due to the power of the Xia Dynasty.
But then, the masked man brought them hope. They were excited and looking forward to the fight.
The Third Prince clasped his hands. He looked terrible.
It turned out the masked man didn’t fear him at all. Instead, he didn’t take him seriously.
He had only experienced this kind of anger when he was confronting Jiang Chen.
On the palace wall, Princess Crimson Moon had just changed into her long boots. She was surprised, too. She noticed her father’s serious look. In comparison to before, the old man’s knitted brows had become smooth.
“As long as it’s fine with the other participants.”
If he wanted to skip the draw, more people would be affected.
The other participants immediately expressed it was fine with them. No one wanted to confront the Third Prince. They would be more than glad to avoid him.
“So if you defeat one more rival and join the top twelve, you’ll fight with the Third Prince,” the old man said.
“You’ve gone too far!” the Third Prince stared at Jiang Chen and said. Then he jumped out of the ring.
Jiang Chen flashed a cold smile behind the mask as he walked away.
His next rival wasn’t on Chu Luo’s list.
“I’m no match for you. I quit. Take a good rest and don’t disappoint us.”
“I won’t,” Jiang Chen said.
As soon as his opponent went into the ring, he admitted his defeat, but not due to fear.
Wow!
It put the crowd in turmoil, while the Third Prince became extremely angry.
After the Third Prince’s abuse of power had been shaken by the masked man, many people started to vent their long repressed anger.
Some people recognized the participant who had quit as the friend of the guy the Third Prince had killed.
In this way, the masked man entered the top twelve and would have a life-or-death fight with the Third Prince!
