Realizer of Death : The Reaper-Chapter 92 92

?The next day, the thirty-two participants who had passed the preliminary round had gathered in Arena D. They were waiting for the referees to come and start the first round of the martial arts competition. Some were nervous, some were acting normal, and the rest were excited as they couldn't wait to fight their opponents in the battle arena.

Apart from them, the participants who had been eliminated yesterday, including Wang Xiuying, were also there. They had come to watch the competition but their seats were a little far from the arena so as not to disturb the match.

Tenku, Wang Ruyue, and the others from the Wang family were also there. In addition, Huang Yuxin was also with them. When Tenku looked to the side, his eyes met Wang Ruyue's, but the other party quickly looked away.

"Haa…" Tenku sighed and shook his head. Since leaving together from the participant's residential building, Wang Ruyue had avoided meeting him face to face.

Every time their eyes met, Wang Ruyue quickly averted her face. Her behavior made Tenku a little confused. If Wang Ruyue couldn't do it, she shouldn't have forced herself to kiss him on the cheek and made the atmosphere awkward in the end.

After Tenku returned to the building last night, Wang Ruyue quickly said goodbye and left Tenku without giving him time to reply. Tenku wanted to stop him and ask about the Sovereign Cultivation Set, but it was too late because Wang Ruyue had left him far away.

Tenku intended to send a message to Wang Ruyue but quickly stopped after a moment of thought. Wang Haotian must have had his reasons for hiding the matter from him. So Tenku decided not to find out any further. If that old man didn't tell him first, he wouldn't ask.

For the time being, he was not going to reveal the matter of the Gu family's true purpose to Wang Haotian. Tenku suspects that the Wang family might already know about it.

While Tenku was thinking about that, he suddenly raised her eyebrows because he felt a thick killing intent directed at him. Tenku felt it from Gu Qingyang among the crowd of participants and from the high platform. He was sure the latter was from an elder of the Gu family or even their patriarch.

The Gu family must be furious after losing twenty people, and one of them had a cultivation base in the late stage of the Sky Origin realm. They must have suffered a huge loss after the Tenku killed many of their cultivators. In this way, he killed three practitioners in the Sky Origin realm and nineteen in the Earth Origin realm from the Gu family.

Tenku shrugged his shoulders and ignored them. If they sent other cultivators to kill him, he wouldn't mind killing them again, regardless of how many Gu family sent him. Of course, on the premise that the practitioners they sent had cultivation bases below the great perfections of the Sky Origin realm.

Not long after, Jin Zhaohui appeared with seven referees and stood above the battle arena. Then Jin Zhaohui walked forward and opened his mouth.

"Once again, I congratulate the thirty-two participants who passed the preliminary round. We will enter the first round today, and the competition will use a knockout system. Matches will be held in eight arenas to shorten the competition time.

Each arena will have four participants and two matches. Number one will fight with number two. Participant number three will fight number four, and so on. For a more detailed explanation is...." Jin Zhaohui explained the rules of the first round.

Thirty-two participants will be divided into eight groups according to the number of battle arenas, and each will have four people.

Arena A : 1 - 4

Arena B : 5 - 8

Arena C : 9 - 12

Arena D : 13 - 16

Arena E : 17 - 20

Arena F : 21 - 24

Arena G : 25 - 28

Arena H : 29 - 32

"That's my explanation. You can go to the arena according to your lottery numbers and prepare for the first round. If that's the case, you can disperse, and the participants who got lottery numbers 13 to 16 can stay here." Jin Zhaohui ended his explanation, and the other seven referees quickly went to their respective arenas.

After they left, Tenku and the participants from the Wang family stayed behind to give their respective numbers. Huang Yuxin wasn't with them because she had already gone to her battle arena.

"What's your lottery number?" Wang Ruyue looked at Wang Zeming and the others but quickly looked away when her eyes met Tenku's.

"I'm 17, arena E." Wang Zeming was the first to answer. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"I got number 1. That means I'm in arena A." Wang Xin spoke next.

"Number 28, arena G." Tenku added.

"I got number 14. So I will compete in this arena again. Luckily, we didn't meet each other in the first round, but I don't know about Wang Xiqing. He seems to be deliberately avoiding us." Wang Ruyue smiled in relief after hearing their lottery numbers and then looked in the direction Wang Xiqing had left.

"I don't know what happened to him. Since the banquet at the hotel, his attitude has changed. He deliberately kept his distance from the other members of the Wang family, to be more precise, from us." Wang Zeming said seriously because he felt something was wrong with Wang Xiqing.

"You don't need to think about him. You have to focus on your match and defeat your opponent." Tenku said flatly.

"He's right. We can't let our focus get distracted by such a trivial matter. All you need to think about is the competition! So, let's go to our respective arenas!" Wang Xin agreed and didn't care about Wang Xiqing.

"Alright. Let's go. You have to be careful with your opponents." Wang Zeming nodded and left the words to the others. After that, he and Wang Xin went to their respective battle arenas, leaving Tenku and Wang Ruyue behind.

"Then, I will go to arena G." Tenku said softly to Wang Ruyue. He was confused about how to treat her. The gentle and elegant girl turned shy because of what she did last night. But before Tenku took a step, Wang Ruyue suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

"I know you are strong. But please be careful in the match. Please don't push yourself too hard. You don't have to think about winning the competition. The most important thing is your safety." Wang Ruyue said worriedly. She was afraid the Gu family would play dirty like yesterday.

Tenku looked at Wang Ruyue and was moved by her words. The girl finally agreed to talk to him in person. Even so, Wang Ruyue still could not look Tenku in the eye.

"Thank you. I'll be more careful. But I will win this competition and keep my promise. I will release you from the marriage agreement and also thwart the plans of the Gu family." Tenku said seriously. He wanted to take first place in the competition and obtain the Qi accumulation pill, but he couldn't say it in that situation. Tenku wasn't a dense man who didn't understand women's feelings.

Wang Ruyue's body trembled after hearing Tenku's words. Then she raised her head and finally wanted to look him in the eye.

"If you can win this competition, I will do whatever you want." Wang Ruyue said with watery eyes and a blush on her face. She tried to hold back her embarrassment as she said that.

Tenku was shocked when he heard Wang Ruyue's bold words but then shook his head. It was very tempting because Wang Ruyue was a gorgeous girl with a perfect body, but Tenku couldn't accept it. He still had goals he needed to achieve.

If another man were in her position, they would immediately hug Wang Ruyue's slender waist and kiss her rosy lips. When faced with that temptation, they will not care even if they are in public.

"A girl should make such a promise easily. We'll talk about that matter again after we win the competition. Do you understand?" Tenku flicked Wang Ruyue's forehead and smiled. He felt closer to her after they spent some time talking about their life experiences last night.

"Ugh! I understand. But can't you treat me like a child? We are the same age, and I am the genius of the Wang family. So I have to maintain my image in public." Wang Ruyue rubbed her forehead and complained. Even so, she nodded obediently at Tenku's words and was secretly happy with his treatment.

"Then, I'll go to arena G. You also have to be careful in your matches." Tenku said to Wang Ruyue before he went to arena G.

"Yeah, I'll be careful. I will come to arena G to see your match after mine is over!" Wang Ruyue raised her voice for Tenku to hear.

"I will pray for your victory and wait for you there." Tenku replied without looking at her and continued walking toward arena G.

They didn't know that Gu Qingyang saw their intimacy. He hadn't gone to his arena yet because he wanted to ask Tenku about the twenty members of the Gu family who disappeared last night. But after seeing Wang Ruyue's closeness to Tenku, Gu Qingyang stopped his steps. He clenched his fists tightly and looked at Tenku with murderous intent.

"The woman I want will be mine, and other men are prohibited from approaching her. Since you have dared to touch my woman, I will torture you painfully in the battle arena." Gu Qingyang said coldly and left the place.

After parting ways with Tenku, Wang Ruyue felt a little lost but smiled as she remembered his words before he left. She clenched her fists tightly, and her fighting spirit ignited. Wang Ruyue is determined to win her match quickly and goes to arena G to see Tenku's battle.

Wang Ruyue waited for the match to start and looked around. She was seated at the side of the battle arena with three other people, and he knew two of them.

The first was a twenty-year-old genius cultivator from the Qin family, Qin Yuan. As for the other one, Wang Ruyue knew her very well. She was the daughter of the city lord, Jin Jiali. The girl noticed Wang Ruyue's gaze and smiled.

"I didn't expect to get the same battle arena as you. I hope to fight with you in the first match and prove who is the best genius girl in Beijing." Jin Jiali said provocatively.

"I'm looking forward to it." Wang Ruyue smiled and replied softly.

Jin Jiali frowned in displeasure when she saw wang Ruyue's response. But before she could say anything, Jin Zhaohui's voice interrupted her.

"We will start the first round of the martial arts competition. For participants number 13 and 14, please enter the battle arena." Jin Zhaohui said, and wang Ruyue followed his instructions.

"Huh?" Wang Ruyue was slightly shocked when she saw that her opponent was the one who had provoked her, Jin Jiali. She didn't think Jin Jiali's words to come true and became her opponent in the first match.
