BXBX NOVEL Chapter 346: Plea
Chapter 346: Plea
So this was just another mystery to add to the pile.
Two black-robed men walked onto the stage. They were the second pair who were going to fight now. One of them was the 6th Mind Tempering realm cultivator who most likely had a superior Metal spiritual root.
The other was the 7th Mind Tempering realm cultivator that went by the name of Chu Xiang, the strongest cultivator in the game. Unlike the previous match, neither of them was going to back down right now.
"BEGIN"
Both of them started attacking the moment the match started. Chu Xiang was an elemental attacker that had a superior wood element.
The guy with the Superior Metal elemental roots took out a sword to combat him.
The fight was intense and it went on for a while. Alex watched intently, but he found there was nothing new to be learned from this fight. It was a very typical fight between two strong people.
As such, it also had a typical result as well. Chu Xiang, through a little more than normal expended effort, managed to win the fight in the end.
The two left the stage and Fu Zhen arrived on the scene. He gave a little speech, giving time for Chu Xiang to recover his strength before the final fight.
People started opening up bets in the meantime. Alex was pretty sure his sister was going to lose but didn\'t want to bet against her, so he didn\'t bet at all.
Finally, at around 4 pm, Fu Zhen finally called the two finalists onto the stage.
Alex watched as Luo Mei and Chu Xiang walked up to the stage and stood on either edge of the stage. He waited for the match to begin when suddenly, the feeling came. Not only had it came back, but it had also come back stronger than others.
It was so strong that it managed to flinch, Alex, a little. "Ah!," he said as the feeling suddenly hit him.
"What\'s wrong?" Wen Cheng asked.
At the same time, Fu Zhen started his main speech.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, it\'s here. There match we all have been waiting for. We will now begin the final match of the competition." Very loud applause sounded from the audience.
Fu Zhen nodded to the referee to start the match, but suddenly, a large TING sound came from outside the arena. Everyone stopped cheering when they heard of it. People started looking around curiously, trying to figure out what that was.
TING
Another sound came. Fu Zhen told the referee to stop for now. He was about to ask someone to go check what the sound was when he saw someone fly in the sky.
It was the Emperor.
TING
Another sound came, this time at a closer interval. People started having a sinking suspicion that something was wrong. They could see the Emperor\'s face slowly go from curiosity to confusion, to slight fear.
TING
TING
TING TING TING TING TING TING TING
The bell started sounding continuous, without stop, and it even managed to make Alex look towards it. The sound of the bells was surprisingly coming from the same direction the feeling was coming from.
\'The south,\' Alex thought.
"Everyone, please listen to me," A voice came from up above. The Emperor had started addressing not only the crowd in the arena but also everyone in the city.
"Those we are weak, below the Organ Tempering Realm, please leave the southern side of the city right now in a calm and collected fashion. Everyone else, please follow me to the southern side. The guards have conducted a small check, and it turns out, there is a hoard of beasts coming to the Cardinal City from the southern forest," The Emperor said.
"This is a plea and an order from your Emperor. Everybody, move now."
As soon as the Emperor stopped talking, people started scrambling to run away from the coliseum. The civilians and weak ones as well as the cowards ran towards the northern side, while the ones that were going to fight started to fly up.
Both Luo Mei and Chu Xiang immediately flew up and went towards the south.
"Yu Ming, You go back. It\'s okay, you don\'t have to fight. Stay safe," Wen Cheng said and turned towards his sect members to choose people that shouldn\'t fight.
"I\'m sorry master, but I have to go on this one. I— I feel like there is something out there calling to me and the beast hoard has something to do with this," Alex said with a solemn voice.
"What\'s that supposed to mean, Yu Ming?" Wen Cheng asked.
"I don\'t know myself, but I will like to find out. Don\'t worry master, I will take the most care. I also have the escape techniques, so you don\'t have to worry about me," Alex said.
TING TING TING TING
The plea for help was still ringing.
"Fine, but you have to be careful," Wen Cheng said. He and the elders as well as most of the disciples started flying to the sky, along with Alex.
Thousands of other people flew up to the sky towards the southern wall, but when they saw the southern wall, they were shocked. A small portion of the wall was completely torn down.
Hundreds of monsters started pouring into the city and started scattering throughout the city. They were wreaking havoc all over the city.
Dust and smoke reigned everywhere on the southern side and beastly shouts rang out from them.
Alex looked at them as well. However, it was then he realized, the feeling he had wasn\'t coming from the beasts nearby. It was coming from deep within somewhere in the southern forest.
