Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty
Chapter 323: Battle of the Fourth Rank

Chapter 323: Chapter 323: Battle of the Fourth Rank

The following match was hardly worth mentioning.

In the Master Group, aside from the two Fourth Rank, there were another eight Third-tiers.

The eight groups battled until the sun set before it officially ended.

Discounting the Fourth Rank, a total of sixteen Third-tier advanced into tomorrow’s elimination round.

"Your opponent for tomorrow has been decided," as soon as the match ended, the large screen already displayed tomorrow’s match-up.

Lu Xiao glanced at the match-up chart, heh, just the adjacent groups’ advancers facing off one-on-one.

His opponent happened to be that sandification mutant from Group C.

"Lu Xiao!" a shout came through.

Lu Xiao turned his head to look outside, oh, it’s that... big sandy bastard.

"Remember, the person who defeats you tomorrow is me, remember my name, I am Sol Vince."

Lu Xiao rolled his eyes, thinking you had something important to say.

"Okay, got it, big idiot." Still, Lu Xiao nodded.

"It’s Sol Vince, not big idiot!"

"Then, big sand fork?" Lu Xiao tried a different address.

"You’re the big fool!" Sol Vince retorted, and then was dragged away by his brother.

...

Lu Xiao didn’t return to the manor, going back and forth would take three or four hours, too troublesome.

In fact, almost no one left, everyone stayed in the temporary hotel within the competition area.

After going through the check-in procedures, Lu Xiao took Chen Fei to their room.

The room was simply furnished with a bed, a TV cabinet, a television, and an adjoining bathroom.

"Truly scrappy," Lu Xiao shook his head.

It’s not that they couldn’t stay, but it felt like the Superpower Alliance was too exploitative and perfunctory.

You should know, not only could they make big money from the betting odds, they also charged for registration.

A registration fee of 50,000 US Dollars per person.

The number of people registered for this competition must be around five thousand.

That meant just the registration fees amounted to two or three hundred million US Dollars, and they live in this thing?

"Anyway, we are just staying for two days." Chen Fei didn’t mind these, as she used to sleep on the streets and under the bridges with her younger brother.

"Go out for a meal?" Lu Xiao tossed his backpack onto the bed.

The backpack contained some clothes for changing; all valuables were kept on him, particularly the two Mutated Crystals, which Lu Xiao wished he could hide right in his crotch.

"Sure."

The moment they stepped out the door, they saw the neighboring door open.

It was Victoria and Irina, walking hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder.

"You two... sharing a room?" Lu Xiao asked.

"Yeah, is there a problem with us two girls living together?" Victoria asked with a smile.

Lu Xiao shrugged, okay, indeed no problem.

As expected, the world was unequal between men and women, particularly in the matter of same-sex relationships.

If two girls shared a room, held hands, leaned on each other’s shoulders, there was no problem.

But if two guys did that... instantly revealed.

"Let’s go, let’s eat together."

...

With not much nightlife, everyone headed back to their rooms after dinner and then played on their phones or slept soundly.

Lu Xiao and Chen Fei slept till noon the next day, as the Master Group’s matches didn’t begin until the afternoon.

They got up at twelve, freshened up, and had some food.

By two o’clock, the pair arrived at the tent right as the competition started.

"Master Group knockout round, first match, A Group’s Reno Mertens against A Group’s Hovenson."

As soon as the onsite broadcast finished, a thunderous cheer erupted around the ring.

"The Spear of Judgment, Reno Mertens ah!"

"Reno will win!"

"Mr. Reno is the champion!"

Many people shouted out, especially some mutants from the Civilization Book Club, they were quite enthusiastic.

After all, Reno was the Judgment Chief of the Civilization Book Club.

The stronger Reno was, the more honorable it was for them as members of the Civilization Book Club.

"A bunch of idiots with problems in their brains, in front of Hovenson, Reno is just trash at fighting."

"Do you know the betting odds for Hovenson to win the championship? 1.9! And Reno’s odds are 4!"

Hovenson’s followers began to retaliate.

"What’s the story with that Hovenson?" Inside the tent, Lu Xiao looked at Chen Fei.

The lower the odds of winning, the more the betting funds, and to some extent, it also implies stronger capabilities.

"From the Royal Fortress of English."

Lu Xiao raised an eyebrow; the Royal Fortress was the official Mutant Organization of English, not to be underestimated.

"Hovenson fought with Edson five years ago and both suffered," Chen Fei added.

"Then Reno is probably going to lose." Lu Xiao clicked his tongue.

Being evenly matched with Edson meant absolute strength.

Reno was still a bit lacking.
