Chapter 1488 - 1488 Chapter 123-reaching the summit (1)
In fact, this was the case. Ever since the two of them went on stage, they had been standing there and bombarding each other with magic. Neither of them moved. The two of them were really evenly matched.
However, when the smoke completely dissipated and people saw the two of them, they couldn’t help but be in an uproar. Because the two of them were drinking and standing there on the stage, but their expressions were different.
Zhao Hai was still standing there calmly. His magic robe was intact, too. He did not look like he had just been through a great battle.
On the contrary, Stryp looked a little embarrassed. His sky-blue Magic robe had a few holes burnt through it, revealing his underwear. Some of his hair was also burnt away, and his face was stained with black ash. It was obvious who was the stronger one.
This was also the reason for the uproar. They had originally thought that Stryp was stronger than Zhao Hai, but now it seemed that Zhao Hai was stronger than Stryp by just a little.
Stryp had also noticed his own situation. He glared at Zhao Hai with eyes full of anger. Stryp had always been very concerned about his image, but he had never thought that he would be forced into such a state by Zhao Hai in this battle. What made him even more annoyed was that Zhao Hai was completely fine.
Stryp hated Zhao Hai. He hated Zhao Hai for making him look like this. He hated Zhao Hai for being stronger than him, and he hated Zhao Hai for being able to defeat him.
However, Stryp was also a scheming person. He knew that it was impossible for him to make a move on Zhao Hai in the ring, so he took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He then bowed to Zhao Hai and said, ” “Teacher’s strength is indeed extraordinary. I admire you. I admit defeat.”
After saying that, he turned to the judge and made a gesture of surrender. The judge was stunned when he saw strep’s gesture, but he immediately reacted and opened the ring’s barrier. At the same time, he shouted, ” “Array world six world rookie tournament, preliminaries first, Zhao Hai, second, Stryp.”
As soon as the judge said this, the arena was in an uproar again. Many people were cursing at strep, who had admitted defeat, because he had made them lose money.
Zhao Hai was slightly surprised when he saw that Stryp had admitted defeat. Then, he revealed an intriguing smile. He could naturally see the killing intent in Stryp’s eyes, but he didn’t expect Stryp to be so scheming that he would admit defeat.
Of course, Zhao Hai wasn’t naive enough to think that Stryp would let him go just like that. That was impossible. The reason why Stryp was holding back now was because he was waiting for an even bigger revenge. When Stryp took his revenge, it would be extremely intense. It would probably take Zhao Hai’s life.
However, Zhao Hai wasn’t afraid of him. He wanted him to take revenge on him, so he could kill him.
With the judge’s announcement, Zhao Hai had officially become the champion of the tournament. At this moment, the entire arena was filled with cheerful music, and all sorts of magic paintballs flew into the air like fireworks.
Zhao Hai stood on the stage and bowed to the audience. There was originally no such segment, but Zhao Hai did it. When the audience saw Zhao Hai’s actions, they were very excited. They stood up and applauded Zhao Hai.
Cadello, who was standing in the VIP area, was clapping his hands with tears in his eyes. This time, the Ashley family had really made a huge profit. Not only did Zhao Hai become the champion of the tournament, but he was also known as the number one dark Horse in history. Cadello had made good use of this fact. He did not have the strength to gamble with others. Through Zhao Hai’s victories, the Ashley family had earned a lot.
Cadjord knew that the opportunity for the Ashley family to rise had come. Now, the Ashley family did not have many enemies. They had territory, money, people, material things, and allies. If they still could not rise up even with this, it could only mean that they were too useless.
Following that was the award ceremony. There was nothing much to say about it. The prizes that they gave out to Zhao Hai were not worthy of Zhao Hai’s attention. It was only in the afternoon that it officially ended.
After the ceremony ended, Zhao Hai wanted to go drink with Xiong Li and the others, but he was pulled back by Cadello, who told him to prepare for a banquet that night.
Zhao Hai also knew that this kind of social interaction was inevitable, so he did not object. Instead, he agreed and told Xiong Li and the others about the situation. He promised to meet them for a drink the next day, then followed Margaret back to the office.
When they arrived at the office, Zhao Hai and Margaret returned to their rooms and entered the realm. As soon as they entered the realm, Laura and the others immediately came to greet them. They looked at Zhao Hai with joy. &Quot; congratulations, big brother hai. You’ve finally gotten first place. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; what’s there to congratulate? it’s just the first place in the preliminaries. By the way, have you been monitoring strep’s situation? “
