Aoki's team was the first to finish their battle.
Because Aoki had shown his strength in front of the crowd, the contestants did not dare to face Aoki's Dazed Beast directly.
Kitt was lucky enough to be placed next to Aoki. The two strongest contestants agreed not to fight, so there was not much trouble. They just had to eliminate the weak contestants as soon as possible.
However, the other arenas were not so lucky. In one of the arenas, the two strongest contestants fought each other at the beginning. In the end, both of them were injured, and the other contestants took advantage of them.
However, it was not a big problem. As long as they were strong enough, even if they were in the losers' group, they could still make it to the top 16. It was just a little troublesome.
When all the battles in the arenas were over, the top 16 contestants were temporarily decided. It only took a total of two hours. Aoki and Kitt waited for more than an hour.
Perhaps because they were well prepared in advance, none of the elves were seriously injured. And because the treatment was free, they used all their strength in the battle.
All kinds of bloody incidents happened frequently.
The trainers who were thrown out of the arena by the Dazed Beast were very glad that their sprites were not injured. They were just shocked when they were thrown out.
Compared to the sprites who were still in the treatment room, they were much luckier. They were very comfortable with the five thousand alliance coins.
Some people even felt grateful to Takeshi Aoki. After all, there was no harm in comparison.
And those who were hostile to Kitt slowly let go of their hostility. After all, they were surrounded by people like Kitt. They also accepted that their sprites were injured.
In short, under the treatment room's orderly treatment, the contestants' sprites recovered very quickly.
At this time, the chief referee also informed everyone that the 16 contestants had been determined. In the afternoon, the losers' group battles would be held. Four of the contestants would have a chance to challenge the top 16 contestants.
This made many people who were taken advantage of because of the strong contestants were eager to get back at them.
And those who made it to the top 16 because of luck could not help but wipe the sweat off their foreheads. They knew their own situation.
Fortunately, even if he was eliminated, he would still get 20,000 alliance coins, which was a lot more than the 5,000 alliance coins that other people got.
After knowing the result, Aoki walked back with Dazed Beast. Kitt wanted to follow Aoki, but Dazed Beast stopped him five meters away. In the end, he could only give up.
He just felt that Aoki might not know him well enough, so he needed to be more enthusiastic in the future.
Aoki still didn't know what he was thinking. If he knew, he would have a headache. This kind of person who acted like they were close to him made Aoki feel the most uncomfortable.
Furthermore, they had good intentions. Aoki had not reached the point where he would kill without a word. He killed people because the other party wanted to deal with him, or because it affected his interests.
Even if he killed Jit, it wouldn't benefit Aoki much. On the contrary, it might bring him trouble.
It wasn't easy to kill a member of the Alliance, especially in a place with so many people.
Of course, Aoki didn't want to kill him, but he couldn't stand his enthusiasm. At most, when he came over in the future, Aoki would let Dazed Beast use its power to form a barrier.
On the way back to his room, Aoki passed by the cruise ship's restaurant and saw a familiar figure.
After hesitating for a while, he walked over.
The familiar figure was the old man who warned Aoki yesterday. Although he didn't succeed in persuading Aoki, his intention was good.
When he got closer, he saw that the old man was still wearing the same shabby clothes. He was holding a cup of tea in one hand and a newspaper in the other. He looked relaxed.
On the Saint Teanu, this kind of dressing was actually quite unusual. Many people unconsciously showed a look of disdain when they saw what he was wearing. If it weren't for the pokeballs on his waist and the fact that he was a trainer, some people might have mocked him directly.
The old man didn't care at all. He just drank his tea leisurely and read his newspaper, as if the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Even when Aoki walked to his side, if he wasn't very close, he probably wouldn't have reacted.
He put down the newspaper in his hand, adjusted his glasses, and smiled when he saw who it was.
"Oh, it's you, little brother. What's the matter?" He recognized Aoki at once, and because there was no one around, he didn't suppress his voice this time.
One could clearly hear that his voice was full of vigor.
Aoki smiled and said, "I'm here to thank you for your advice yesterday."
Hearing this, the old man waved his hand. "This old man was too anxious yesterday. I saw such a well-trained sprite and was afraid that it would be snatched away by those rich kids. That would be a pity. I didn't expect that a trainer who could cultivate such an excellent sprite would be weak in battle. "
He was a little embarrassed at the end of his sentence. He did do something unnecessary yesterday. The trainer was extraordinary, and he didn't have to worry about not being able to defeat him.
He almost did a disservice yesterday.
"Anyway, I still have to thank you, sir. I just won the competition yesterday, so let me treat you to a meal. It's almost lunchtime now."
The old man looked at Aoki in surprise, then looked at the dazed beast beside him. He suddenly understood something and laughed heartily. "Hahahaha, okay, then I'll freeload a meal."
After that, he carefully folded the newspaper and put it in his pocket, then drank the tea in his cup. "Waiter, bring me the menu."
He didn't seem to realize that he was the one being treated. After the waiter brought the menu, he flipped to the end and ordered all the most expensive dishes.
When the waiter looked at him suspiciously, wondering if he could pay, the old man smiled and patted Aoki's shoulder. "Don't look at me, this little brother will pay the bill later."
Aoki didn't mind at all. He nodded slightly to the waiter, then handed him a bank card and said, "You can serve the dishes faster."
The waiter nodded repeatedly to show that there was no problem. He took the menu and the bank card and left happily.
There was only one word in his mind: rich!
Because the price of the dishes the old man just ordered added up to 30,000 Union Coins.
Aoki smiled and added a little more water to the old man's teacup, then sat down obediently.
The old man was very pleased with Aoki's attitude and nodded in satisfaction. He looked at Aoki and asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
