Outside the Sky Tower, Angor saw Leon's opponent for today's match list.
"Gospel of Death."
Generally speaking, the younger a person was, the more he or she liked to use a title he or she couldn't suppress.
Just like Monarch of Eternal Freeze, who could create a thin layer of frost on the ground, and he or she was already called Monarch of Ice. There was no point in trying to figure out the reason behind such a title.
Compared to "Gospel of Death", he was more interested in Leon's title.
The screen showed that Leon's title was "Lionheart Knight."
Knights of the Padt Family were generally referred to as "Lionheart Knights". Although Angor was surprised to see Leon using this title, considering his personality and the responsibility he shouldered for his family, it made sense.
Leon's match was about to begin, so Angor went to the contestants' area first. Angor stood in front of the list and checked the names. Unfortunately, he didn't see anyone familiar. As for Nausica and the others, their names weren't shown because they were fighting in the Tower of Infinity.
Angor arrived at the audience area and was surprised to see that there were quite a lot of people watching the matches.
Their seats were surrounded by people. The audience was waiting excitedly for the contestants to go on stage.
After listening to Sailum's explanation, Angor finally understood the whole story. The audience wasn't here to support a particular contestant. They were here because the matches in the lower levels were free.
The matches in the lower levels were usually crowded. Most of them were new apprentices or mortals who stayed in Floating Mech City.
Plus, this was a promotion match. Even if it was only a promotion match from the first level to the second level, it was still the lowest level of the Tower of Infinity.
Angor spent the whole match in the loud cheers of the audience.
As for the competition, he already knew it would not be anything special. Still, he was still surprised by the result.
Compared to the lower levels of Sky Tower in Brute Cavern, the matches here were much more exciting. In the lower levels of Brute Cavern, apart from some newbie assassins who didn't want to level up on purpose, most of the matches here were mortal fights. At least, one could see supernatural powers with their own eyes.
For example, Leon's opponent, "Gospel of Death."
From the name, one would think that it was a bigoted man with the aura of a charlatan, but in fact, it was a little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old.
Holding a mini scythe that looked like a cane, it could manipulate two souls. A man and a woman. The man's soul was the shield, while the woman's soul was the spear. From the angle of attack and defense, the little girl was completely surrounded.
Although Lyon had the Heart Set, which prevented the little girl from dealing too much damage to Lyon, he couldn't withstand the waves of exhaustion. In the end, Lyon had no choice but to admit defeat.
However, a large part of the reason why Lyon admitted defeat was that he rarely took the initiative to attack the little girl. He was basically entangled with the two souls.
Angor understood that Leon still believed in the knight's creed.
When it came to women and children, they would not be heavy-handed unless it was absolutely necessary.
And this match was not a match where one had to risk their lives to win or lose. As far as Leon was concerned, as long as he could use his skills to his heart's content and gain battle experience, he would be able to level up in the future.
Just as Angor expected, when Leon came out from the backstage area, his face was pale due to exhaustion, but he was still in high spirits.
Leon learned a lot from his first battle with souls. Even if he lost the match, he didn't regret it at all.
After Leon's match, Angor and Sailum went to the Tower of Infinity.
They wanted to see if Nausica's match was over.
The screen outside the Tower of Infinity showed the result of Nausica's match. Everyone sighed in relief when they saw the word "level up" behind the title of "Blackberry King".
However, the duration of this match was astonishing. It was close to two hours. Nausica's match only ended when Leon entered the arena.
This was going to be a tough fight for Nausica.
Fortunately, Nausica succeeded in the end. She was now the second member of the Pavilion of Youth team to become a "new star" after Sailum.
Just as everyone was feeling gratified, the screen in front of them suddenly changed from the results of the battle to the current rankings.
Her name was no longer on the scoreboard after her breakthrough. The top ten on the list all had 100 points, which meant they could level up. Angor guessed they were still on the list because the match had not started yet.
Apart from the top ten, there were about 300 contestants with 99 points all the way to single digits.
Angor also saw Shiliew's name on the list. As Sailum said, Shiliew was at the bottom of the list. She only had 13 points, which meant her chances of winning were 50/50.
It was said that Shiliew didn't meet any potential contestants this time. In other words, she didn't really lose any of her matches. She simply fell asleep in the middle of the fight and allowed her opponents to win.
Just like when Angor first met Shiliew in the Sky Tower. He really couldn't deal with Shiliew, and just when he thought he was going to lose, Shiliew snored, and the scales of victory immediately flipped.
Angor couldn't help it. God gave her extraordinary talent, but at the same time, it gave her a drawback. Angor could only hope that Shiliew could find a way to get rid of this drawback one day.
Apart from Shiliew, Angor didn't know much about the other contestants on the list. However, he did recognize some of their nicknames.
Sailum, on the other hand, knew a lot about the contestants and could give some general comments about them.
He also knew about the potential contestants like the back of his hand.
According to Sailum, half of the information about the contestants was collected by Dark Codex, while the other half was heard from Kihara Bar. Since the contestants often crossed each other, the information was mostly true.
It was the first time Angor saw Sailum talking about the contestants so excitedly. It was obvious that Sailum valued the competition a lot.
Angor didn't care much about the competition at first. But now, he was a little interested.
Most of the top apprentices in the southern wizarding region might fade away due to time, but some of them would definitely become supernovas who would bring glory to the entire region in the future.
Witnessing their growth was also like witnessing a piece of history.
While listening to Sailum's excited talk, Angor glanced at the screen and suddenly paused.
He thought he saw a name.
"Overlook … Esoteric?" Angor muttered.
Sailum was still talking excitedly when he heard Angor's words. He followed Angor's gaze. [Overlook, 23 points.] […]
Sailum paused and slapped his head. "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. Dave is here too."
Looking into the Mysteries was David's nickname.
Sailum then briefly explained Davy's battle history to him.
Dave only joined the competition with Leona after Angor left Floating Mech City. However, Dave joined the competition frequently and rarely lost.
In such a short time, he surpassed Shan and Shiliew and joined the list.
Judging from Dave's current win rate, he had a chance to become a new star before the deadline.
Angor knew Dave was going to join the competition. But … "Dave isn't staying with you?"
"No. He's staying with Miss Leona. According to him, Miss Leona has been giving him intensive training recently. We only saw him once when he came to Floating Mech City. Other than that, we didn't see him. "
Angor nodded. He wanted to see Dave again, but since the man was busy with his intensive training, he gave up the idea.
…
Nausica's competition ended about half an hour ago. They didn't see her at the backstage, so they assumed she had already left the Tower of Infinity.
Sailum and Leon decided to go back to Fragrant Pavilion.
Angor was planning to go with them as well. However, as soon as they left the Tower of Infinity, he received a message from Water Witch.
Farrina told Angor that she had talked to Vifet and learned that Vifet was willing to compromise on the terms of the deal.
Farrina happened to be in the City of Floating Mech right now. Angor also planned to visit Antonio at the Research Department. So, he bid farewell to Sailum and Leon and went there alone.
