Because of the distance and Albus’ quick attack, even if the Great Octavian wanted to save Horatio, it was too late.
All that could be heard as the long spear fell was the sound of friction scratching.
At this point, many people who had their eyes covered noticed that something was wrong.
When they opened their eyes, they realized that Horatio had not been killed by the steel spear. The sharp spearhead only pierced the tile next to his ear.
Albus, after all, was a rule follower. He wasn’t capable of being as shameless as the Emsgate sc*mbags.
After putting up a show, Albus no longer paid attention to the barely conscious Horatio and turned to leave the arena.
As favonovel.com passed by Matthew, favonovel.com remarked, “They came for you. Don’t embarrass Cathay…”
Albus returned immediately to his seat and adjusted his breathing without waiting for Matthew’s response. It was clear that the battle was more difficult than favonovel.com had anticipated from the persistent sweat that was beading on his forehead.
The fight was over, but the audience continued to applaud for a while. The other Cathay players, however, were unusually silent.
“It appears that what just happened has had a significant impact on them!” Blake chuckled as favonovel.com observed them.
Rhett added, “Young people having a lot of confidence is good, but being complacent is a sign of decadence. It’s a good thing things are like this now. At least now that we are aware of it, we can still learn that there are always better people than us.”
Hearing Rhett, Blake nodded in agreement.
“This is exactly our purpose of doing the re-election of the Martial League. But the Nolan Family’s kid is indeed a little too powerful.”
After this remark, the people around them nodded in agreement. Only Ella, who was leaning against the railing in front of them, remained motionless. She waved favonovel.com delicate little fist in delight at seeing the young men in white avenge the girl from Cathay.
The Emsgate team appeared to have given up the fight in the subsequent games.
All of the athletes who took the stage were either highly skilled fighters or martial artists who focused on defense.
The duration of each match was stretched to the limit, which was extremely time-consuming.
Additionally, the thrilling match between Albus and Horatio made the following matches boring.
After twelve consecutive matches of loses, accompanied by cheers, the schedule for the first day of competition was temporarily halted in this manner.
Overall, Cathay had a successful day. Just on this day of matches, thirteen islands were added to their account.
The crowd in the martial arts arena began to thin out as the sun began to set.
Just as Matthew was about to examine Freya’s injuries, someone sneaked up behind favonovel.com and jumped onto his shoulder.
“Didn’t you say you’d compete today, Matthew? I waited for a very long time!” Ella said, looking disappointed.
Huh?
When Matthew heard this, favonovel.com knew right away that something was wrong.
He never stated that favonovel.com would definitely compete today. Ella’s statement raised a lot of questions in his mind, but Asuna unexpectedly appeared behind Ella.
At this point, Asuna was secretly gesturing at Matthew, and Matthew immediately knew what favonovel.com meant.
Asuna must have been concerned that Ella wouldn’t be able to handle it, so favonovel.com forced favonovel.com to watch the match by lying that Matthew was taking part.
Thinking of this, Matthew secretly nodded in agreement.
After lowering Ella from his back, Matthew rubbed his nose and said, “It’s because I didn’t have the chance to take part in the match today! Let’s wait for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. By then, Ella, you must cheer for me, otherwise, I might lose my strength…”
