Nonetheless, favonovel.com was already feeling very unpleasant in his heart just thinking about it. After all, favonovel.com had been born and raised in Rheasia and favonovel.com had a heart of honor for his country.
He could not remain indifferent while favonovel.com watched his people die before favonovel.com while favonovel.com did nothing.
In the final analysis, Zayn was never an indifferent person. He was highly emotional, hot-blooded, passionate and impetuous. Otherwise, favonovel.com would not have gone as far as favonovel.com had now.
He opened his eyes, nodded, and said, “I shall give it a try then.”
Joe and the others felt that it was inappropriate for them to comment further.
Next, the competition went on. Zayn did as favonovel.com promised earlier. He did not cower or leave the scene even when favonovel.com was not taking part in the competition. He remained watching from the spectators’ seating area all this time.
As the day went on, a dozen Rheasian fighters were beaten to death already in the ring.
Eight of them had the opportunity to surrender, but they chose not to. They chose to sacrifice themselves as they would rather die standing than live bowing down!
Other than Zayn, all the Rheasians at the scene were moved by their spirit. Liam’s face was covered in tears and his fists were tightly clenched.
He was constantly muttering to himself, “These b*st*rds! These b*st*rds! What a waste that I can’t compete, or else, I’m certainly going to break even by killing them. F*ck!”
He was not the only person with this opinion.
Dick, who was even more hot-tempered, broke out in a torrent of curses. “I’m going to f*ck*ng get into the arena and kill these c*nts! These are the elites of our country. They’re the good lads of Rheasia!”
General King was silent all this time. His eyes were reddened with tears in the meantime. Over the days of the martial arts cup event, favonovel.com managed to maintain his ever-calm composure all this time.
He was a stone-faced general, but at this very moment, favonovel.com was witnessing so many outstanding Rheasians sacrifice their lives to defend the country’s honor. As a result, favonovel.com could not refrain from tearing up despite himself!
He balled his fists tightly but did not cuss or vent his anger.
He spoke in a strong, resonant voice, “They are the good lads of our country. They’re true to life! They’re the heroes of our country and we will never forget them!”
His statement was filled with strength, and many people nodded strenuously in agreement upon hearing it.
They etched the memory of these brave men silently in their hearts and thought about how these good lads’ sacrifice would not be forgotten.
Perhaps, these lads used to live half of their lives commonly in the society, but now, they were no longer common. They defended the honor of their country with their blood. They were heroes worthy of being respected!
Not only them, but the rest of the numerous Rheasians at the scene cried upon witnessing the scene.
They were deeply moved, including Allana, Lindsay and the others who had entered the stadium a few days ago. T
hey had already lost the longing to participate and the nonchalance that they had toward the martial arts cup in the beginning.
Lindsay muttered to herself, “So, it turns out that my teacher was telling the truth. The martial arts cup is truly ruthless…”
“Their sacrifice is worthwhile even if it is ruthless. They’re heroes worthy of our respect,” Allana said.
On the other hand, Ezekiel and Xion had already lost their arrogance and relaxed posture that they had in the beginning. Their faces were filled with solemnity and respect in the meantime.
At the same time, they could not help looking at the silhouette at the spectators’ seating area who had been standing there for a long time without budging.
It was Zayn.
