Chapter 155: Your beast is running wild again, bro! Part4

After hearing Tang Yue’s sharp-tongued words, the crowd around them was completely appalled.

“How could she injure her opponents so cruelly?”

“Using poison and money to win! That’s the worst!”

“If she has so much power and influence, why did she even have to join in this contest?”

“Oh, you are right. She could have just gone into the labyrinth with one of the royal army teams.”

“Is she here just to show off and torture others?”

“What a black-hearted princess!”

The crowd was gossiping quite loudly behind Tang Yue’s back pleasing Tang Xi very much. 

She was satisfied to see that her weak yet arrogant sister still retained her self-destructive tendencies.

As a royal consort, she should have focused on her image first, instead of doing these excessive things simply to win a random contest. Tang Xi snickered.

The other royal consorts as well had similar thoughts in their mind. This made them feel better about themselves and their raging jealousy calmed down.

Tang Yue, however, remained completely unfazed. 

The truth was that even if her venom was fatal to the opponents, Tang Yue would have still used it and secured her win.

Only the truly strong can puff their chest out and bang the wall in front of them by smashing it straightforwardly with all their might.

A weakling, however, needed to locate that small hole present in every wall and poke that hole with their strong point, until it affects the entire wall’s stability, even shattering it into a million pieces.

The approach might be different but the end result was still the same!

And Tang Yue was by no means strong enough yet. She was still a weakling. 

She can only use things that are to her advantage.

She just cannot afford to shower fake kindness on strangers.

The minute you step on the stage, both parties are well aware of the consequences of the battle.

So why should she go easy on her opponents?

Would the elf show the same kindness to her if she was on the receiving side?

Nope. Definitely not.

Tang Yue did not waste her time with silly bickering and calmly ignored the chatter.

After collecting their things, she and Lotte, the former calmly and the latter nervously walked out of Stage 7 and back to the center stage area to observe the rest of the fights.

Almost at the same time she finished her first fight and walked out, another person as well walked out of the adjacent stage.

It was the same black hooded figure that had bumped into her earlier. 

The person emitted a vicious and dangerous aura.

She still couldn’t see who it was though. The person quickly disappeared.

“Hmm..” Tang Yue looked at the mysterious expert and then peeked over to take a look at the condition of that person’s opponent. She instantly had a bad feeling. 

The people around that stage were also equally gob-smacked as her own audience, though it looked like in this case, it was because of sheer talent and strength.

The stage was completely fresh and untouched. There were no signs of a fight at all.

A burly looking elf was lying face down on the stage, most definitely unconscious and a couple of healers were tending to him.

It was probably a one-hit knockout!

The black-hooded figure’s strength needed to be at least ten times higher than this elf if they managed to achieve this sort of one-hit knockout.

“Tch. Tch. It looks like I missed a good fight.” Tang Yue licked her lips and smiled.

Lotte nervously wiped his forehead. Princess, please care about other things!

The trio again settled in front of the center stage and excitedly observed the rest of the fights.

The next big fight was between an orc and a short and chubby female elf. 

Though the orc had insanely strong physical defenses, the elf easily dominated the fight with her dual elemental magic.

The elf combined lightning and fire essence and massacred the other side swiftly.

After that, the next fight started and this time two elves with similar abilities clashed again. 

Both were swordsmen and both were proficient in fire magic.

This match dragged on for quite a while and eventually ended when the two elves ran out of mana.

Just like this time trickled by, and Tang Yue was happily enjoying herself.

It had already been a while and her jade slip still did not glow. She was not yet called in for her next fight.

Of course, this was something within her expectations. So Tang Yue was not too worried.

She did however walked over to the registration desk to confirm things in person.

The elf looked at her awkwardly and shrugged. 

“All your opponents conceded beforehand. You already have five wins for the day by default.”

“Heh. Alright. I will be leaving then.” Tang Yue chuckled and retreated back to the palace for the night.

Relmar’s eyes trailed her figure, but the elf simply sighed and continued overseeing the rest of the fights. She was not his problem.

Tang Yue, on the other hand, was in a happy mood. Everything had happened just like she had expected.

In fact, this was the reason why she had used her venom in the first place and also showcased her entire collection of armors.

She simply wanted to scare everyone away as much as she could. 

This could save her a lot of time, and effort and even help her in avoiding potential injuries.

Her main goal was still to grab a spot in the top 50 and that was the only thing she cared about, at least for now.

Meanwhile…

In the middle of the eastern forests…

Xander was hovering over the entrance of the labyrinth with his eyes closed and his soul sense extended into the labyrinth as far as possible.

A small vibration resounded in his body, indicating that he had received a new message.

“Hrmmm?” Xander retrieved his soul sense and crushed the jade slip.

And instantly, a shrieking high-pitched voice emerged from within the jade slip!

“Brother, your favorite beast is running wild again!”
