Chapter 432 The Battle of Team Leaders: Who Will Be the First to Arrive?!
Click click.
Sturmhead gritted his teeth, making a clicking sound.
He was furious.
But reason held him back.
In the end, this so-called hot-tempered and unapproachable pillar of the American empire, a candidate for king, managed to suppress his intense impulse...
In short, they chickened out.
Sage Sheen breathed a sigh of relief.
"A wise choice."
His almost innate, strong intuition told him that if he had made a move just now, Sturmhead would have lost miserably!
"Now that the knockout stage is over, shouldn't it be our turn?"
Jiang Yuan stood up from his seat.
A simple action, yet it brought immense pressure to everyone present.
Many people, including Sheen, Blood Buddha, and Flame Demon, had their expressions shifting.
However, his words caused a complete uproar in the live broadcast room, with noise deafening.
"Here it comes! Here it comes!!"
"The battle of team leaders!! I've been waiting for this for so long!!"
"Finally, we'll see Jiang Shen make his move?!"
"I can't wait!!"
"My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream."
"I'm so excited right now, I haven't been this excited in a long time!!"
"Jiang Shen beat up that American team leader; he's been wanting to smack him for ages!!"
"+1"
……
"You haven't forgotten our duel, have you?"
Jiang Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.
Park Jin-hyuk's expression changed upon seeing this, and his heart sank even further.
If he thought he had a 20% chance of winning before the war began, after witnessing Kitahara Ruri being instantly killed, he was truly uncertain about his chances.
Although this guy is young, his combat strength is probably comparable to those top geniuses of China who dominated an era in the past!
One-on-one, who could be his match!?
But if we back down now, it would be too humiliating in front of a whole world...
"The crisis in the abyss is imminent; this is not the time for internal strife. Losing combat strength will hinder our ability to cope with the upcoming crisis..." Sheen said rationally.
Oleg, however, clenched his fist and slapped his palm, a look of excited smile spreading across his face, his fighting spirit surging: "Isn't there still three days? There's plenty of time. We can spar and exchange ideas, and maybe even improve our understanding before the big battle. Don't worry, Mormans has excellent healers; I guarantee everyone will be unharmed."
Damn it, if you don't speak, people won't think you're mute.
Sturmhead cursed inwardly.
"Since no one has any objections, then it's decided."
As Jiang Yuan spoke, his fingers moved lightly.
next moment.
A battlefield notification popped up in front of the leaders of each country.
[Ding! Jiang Yuan, the leader of the Great Xia team, has issued a challenge to battle.]
【Whether to accept? 】
This is a paid battle. Participants must pledge an item of roughly equal value to their opponent's pledge. The winner receives the opponent's pledged item.
[Jiang Yuan's Mortgage: The Arrow of Rudra (Legend)]
[Comparable to: Epic weapons/Legendary items/Legendary materials]
"An epic weapon in exchange for a battle against the legendary Jiang Shen? It's worth it!!"
Oleg was the first to click "Accept Invitation".
He mortgaged an epic cloak.
Seeing this, the others had no choice but to accept the invitation to save face for the future king.
Stratheid stared intently at Jiang Yuan.
"Arrogant boy from Great Xia, you want to fight? Fine. But how do we decide the winner? What are the rules?"
"You guys were all clamoring online before, saying you wanted to fight me. Well, I'll give you that opportunity in the form of a ring match."
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I'll defend the title, and you can take turns attacking. It's fair."
"Or are you planning a large-scale, no-rules elimination tournament, where a group of people will eliminate me first? I'm fine with either way."
"Arrogance," Strmude said through gritted teeth. "You'll pay for your pride. Just you wait and see."
He clicked to accept the invitation and paid with a legendary material, [Ocean Essence].
Park Jin-hyuk took out the only legendary material he had—[Golden Flower of Gensokyo].
If it's a ring battle...
He might have a chance after Jiang Yuan is exhausted from his series of battles.
By then, this Korean swordsman will truly be awe-inspiring throughout the world!
"Want to give it a try?"
"Forget it, I'm only at the ninth level, I can't participate, I'd better not embarrass myself."
"I'd love to see it, but unfortunately I don't have any treasures that can rival legendary items. Sigh..."
"We can only take a look now."
Of the dozens of team leaders who showed up, only a few of those who had previously made verbal challenges online actually participated.
The Norse Sage - Sheen, the Wings of the Undying Sky - Frey Fox, the White Elephant Kingdom - Blood Buddha - Rama IV, the Indian Kingdom [Flame Demon] Disha, the Iron-Blooded Vice-Commander of the Bear Kingdom - Oleg Watt, and the Beautiful Kingdom - Stratheid.
These renowned and illustrious prospective kings from various countries now represent their nations, bearing the weight of glory, and are determined to reclaim the honors lost in the national destiny elimination rounds!
[Battlefield established—]
Rumble!!
Four towering pillars appeared in the center of the battlefield of national destiny, and in the middle appeared a giant arena the size of a city, completely black, as if forged from steel.
Amidst the excited gazes of martial artists from various countries.
Seven figures were teleported to the giant pillars surrounding the arena.
Jiang Yuan appeared in the center of the dark arena.
"Who's coming first?"
The boy wielded the knife with both hands, his voice reverberating through the cosmos.
Compared to the arena, his tall and slender figure was as small as an ant, yet his aura seemed capable of shaking heaven and earth.
