Chapter 2647 Final of the Champions Tournament (1)
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed and the Champions Tournament was at its end!
After hundreds and hundreds of competitive fights, days of great movement in the capital of The Adamant Land, the time was coming for the final decision for those who would occupy the two slots available for the forces of this world!
Today was the day of the last 50 fights of the tournament, when all the winners of the first round would complete their mandatory matches for the end of the ranking.
Most of the names that had made it this far no longer stood a chance of victory, but serious punishments would be handed out to quitters or individuals who made it easier for opponents to win. As such, everyone was still fighting vigorously, hoping they wouldn't be prevented from going to Zocarro in the future.
Meanwhile, the main names in the competition, who still had a chance of winning, had to fight hard until the last match. And today they still had five decisive matches, which could change the fate of the outcome of both the Stuart family's subordinate group and the non-subordinate group!
For the last battles and the appointment of her planet's representatives, Sarah was in the capital's main arena, while she had George and Noah with her.
In the VIP area of the noisy fighting arena, Noah was playing on the floor of a fenced-off area with various wooden toys, carefree for the tournament at its end.
Sarah, who had recently reached level 90, was keeping an eye on the fighting platform, where yet another match had ended and two very well-placed individuals would soon move up.
She and George had no favorites in this contest. Whoever the final winner of each of the spots was, they were satisfied with everything they had seen over the last few weeks.
As The Adamant Land was a little stronger than the Spiritual World, the warriors in the competition on this planet were stronger than those in the Spiritual World. Consequently, the battles so far were of a higher level than those in these people's home world, with great learning opportunities for all the spectators.
Such was the case with Minos' in-laws, two of the three there in the arena today for the finale of the competition.
Joseph Frost was standing next to Eliot Miller, anxiously following this event that had pitted several mid- and high-level Demigods against each other. Meanwhile, Vince Miles was in the Spiritual World with his wife and grandson, Rowan, following the final of the tournament on that planet.
"Who do you think will win, old Joseph?" Asked Eliot to the white-haired man next to him, in the VIP area of the planet's imperial family.
"Patriarch Jeffrey Terry is a capable man. I'm sure he'll at least come second. That will give him the chance to contest the fifth seat for Zocarro." Gloria's father said, as he looked at the patriarch of one of Minos' subordinate families, House Terry, a former pillar of the Gray Clouds Sect in the old Flaming Empire.
Patriarch Jeffrey Terry was currently at level 93, having grown a lot since the time Minos passed through the sect and met him, many decades ago.
His opponent, however, was not simple!
Davy Hayes, level 92, was a genius who had competed against Minos in the Spiritual Tournament at the beginning of Minos' cultivation journey centuries ago, who had become a soldier in the Black Plain Army and had grown a lot since then.
Although he wasn't on the same level as Minos, Davy had exceptional talent and would have been the same age as such a legend if Minos hadn't left the Spiritual World and gone through various experiences in places with great time distortions. In other words, he was young and had plenty of room to grow.
"Davy surprised a lot in the competition. His third place at the moment could easily become first place if he beat Jeffrey." Sarah overheard her grandfather's conversation and gave her opinion on the end of the event to the family's subordinates. "I believe he will be the chosen one from this selection."
"For that to happen, Sibley Banks will have to lose her fight and leave the first place vacant." Said George, remembering the name of the warrior who was currently number one and who would win the competition for one place if she won or even if she lost, depending on the results between the number two and three.
A draw was a possible result in this tournament, so the possibilities were wide open.
Sibley, Maisie's old rival, also subordinate to the family since the Flaming Empire's entry into the Black Plains Empire, was quietly in her zone, waiting for her departure.
When she saw Davy and Jeffrey climb onto the combat platform, she narrowed her eyes in determination. Her victory could come before she even vied for the last time in this tournament!
The event's narrator opened his mouth and presented both sides to the confrontation, with the audience cheering as they watched the two individuals climb the steps of the platform.
Sarah said to George, "Let's see. I'm afraid Sibley's opponent isn't so simple either. I'm not optimistic about her winning."
After these words, the match would begin, with Jeffrey and Davy attacking each other hard from the start of the fight.
Besides Sibley, the contestants who would compete in the final battles of the non-subordinates also followed the contest with interest, interested in the possible companions of the winner on the trip to Zocarro, but also in the rival for the fifth remaining spot.
Jeffrey and Davy's battle would be exciting to the end, as were many of the battles of the previous days. But, to Sibley's misfortune, she would have a winner to put the pressure on!
"In this match, I declare Davy Hayes the winner of the round!" Said the event's narrator, raising the spirits of the over 150,000 people in the stands.
Meanwhile, the young man who had once lost one of his arms to Minos was smiling on his knees on the fighting platform, seeing his name at the top of the rankings for the first time.
As long as Sibley lost, he would get his right to go to Zocarro. But even if Sibley won, he had secured a second place in the rankings of the family's subordinates and the chance to vie for the fifth spot on that planet!
With this result, it would soon be time for Minos' non-subordinates to decide among themselves who would win the direct place in the group going to Zocarro!
