BOOM!! The Hermit didn’t relent, as he ended the combo with a horizontal slash with both his swords. Alexis barely blocked the blow with her swords as she lost her footing, staggering and falling back.

With added force from her opponent, she was slammed down on the floor as strength finally faded away from her body. She felt weak all over and was not dizzy.

“Is this it? Am I going to die here?” She couldn’t help but ask herself inwardly, as tears rolled down her eyes. 

She never wanted to be a gladiator, but this was not a choice that she could make. This is how this age is. She could not help but feel boundless hatred as her thoughts continued unrestrainedly.

“Mom, Dad, why did you give birth to me in this era of violence?”

The strong survive and make the use of the weak as chess pieces and sources of entertainment. She knew that in this age, the one with the biggest fist speaks, but she was still indignant.

Why was she born in t

    After a week of treatment, Alexis was finally discharged. She came to meet her friends, looking energetic as usual. During this week that she stayed in the medical bay, Ethan fought his second fight. It was not as dramatic as hers though. He won after a drawn-out battle of attrition. Forget about his lack of self-confidence, he was still one of the best on the ship. His lack of confidence is because of the steep requirement of only 5 survivors. ******************************************* It has been 3 months since the tournament started, and today was Kalen’s 2nd battle fixture. His opponent this time is the Scythe. The fight was without any suspense as he completely crushed his opponent. After some time, Alexis and Ethan also had their 3rd fight. They both fought against weaker opponents and won after putting in some effort. The main highlight of these recent fights was the Emperor’s 3rd fight, which he fought against Yue Fei. Y

    After return, Kalen went back straight to his room. His 2 friends were already there to welcome and congratulate him. “Kalen, you are so fierce. Damn, that was intense.” Ethan exclaimed exaggeratedly as soon as he saw him. “I can’t believe you abandoned your weapons to finish the fight with your fists, that’s completely tyrannical.” Ethan kept on heaping praise on him which finally made him smile a little, earning a burst of laughter from Alexis. “Hahaha, you only know when to smile when praises are heaped on you right?” She asked in a slightly accusing tone. Kalen was left speechless. “Can’t you allow me to enjoy my glory for once?” He could only cough a little to hide his awkwardness, as black lines already covered his face. ***************************************************** For the rest of the day, there were talks of how the Lone Dragon demolished the Trickster became the talk of the day. Kalen didn’t know all of t

After the 2nd round, 51 soldiers survived. 50 of them had to fight, as one lucky gladiator was allowed to advance to the next round without fighting. After the 3rd round, only 26 soldiers survived. Then after the 4th round, these 13 soldiers were the golden goose survivors. These 13 soldiers are then going to fight for the last opportunity to survive.

    At last moment of desperation when the Exterminator’s weapon was advancing to cut her leg, Alexis’s brain calculated, and she discovered that she could not avoid losing her last leg. So, she just ignored it. It was already spilled milk to her. She focused on striving for the last effort at breaking her speed limit. Forcing breakthrough was her last gamble. As soon as she lost her last leg, her brain spammed her with pain signals ruthlessly, but she tried hard to ignore all these. Before it was cut, she managed to propel herself up a bit. She gritted her teeth as her suspended body ascended higher. Blood dropped like rain after her ascending figure, making the battle arena extremely bloody. Every spectator held their breaths and widened their eyes, as this scene completely felt like something out of a horror movie. The excessive blood loss was already muddling her consciousness. A normal soldier would have already been in a near-death state fro

    The Demon Slayer couldn’t endure it anymore as he tore open his last trump card. He quickly started his ultimate, his self-created technique, the Wild Strikes of Death. Normally, he used his self-created technique as his final finishing blow. This is because self-created techniques are very energy and concentration draining, even more so than divine battle arts. This immediately caused his offensive to rise a level, as his opponent started struggling to keep up. Ethan included this in his plans, as this was not the first time that he saw his opponent using this self-created technique. Despite his preparation, things don’t always go according to plan as the increased offensive was fiercer than he predicted. He repeatedly parried with his 2 swords, while letting out grunts and retreating from the force of the blows. Ptui!! Ptui!! He finally slipped up which his opponent promptly took advantage of, inflicting him with 2 deep cuts across the

    The most anticipated day has finally arrived, it was a fight against two of the greatest pinnacles. Kalen stood still rigidly at the section of the sip where gladiators weapons were stored. He was deeply conflicted. Despite him training for so long to master the art of the spear, he was still more proficient at using a sword. He knew that he didn’t have much time to decide, he broke out of his dilemma as he quickly made his decision. He picked up his normal weapon set of a sword and shield, like usual. But he still chose a spear as a precaution and strapped it to his back. ********************************************** “Ladies and gentlemen, grab your popcorn and strap in for a wild ride as the most anticipated fight of the year is about to begin.” The commentator was sure not to be dull, as he started hyping the fight with his carefully prepared words. “I want to hear you as welcome 2 of the deadliest gladiators in this tournament.

    Clang!! Clang!! Clang!! Nobody answered the spectator’s doubts, as metallic sounds kept ringing like bells across the arena. The commentator was gravely silent, he also didn’t understand the situation. As the tense atmosphere of suspense grew among the spectators like a plague, the arena finally cleared up a bit. The 2 gladiator’s unnaturally swift-moving silhouettes gradually became clear. Their figures moved rapidly like phantoms, as they were both already entangled in a bloody melee. This time around, there was no shield to control the tempo as their hand speed completely erupted. Most of the spectators only saw a blur, but this could not calm their rapidly beating hearts realization finally dawned on them. They forgot that the Lone Dragon entered the fight with a spear still strapped to his back. Kalen fought fiercely like a bloody maniac, as his hand speed continuously increased without restraint. Blood blossomed like drizzling rain, as t

    After a week of treatment, like predicted, Kalen was finally discharged as Alexis escorted him back to his him. For the whole week, he didn’t taste any food, he was only placed on drips. So, on getting back, Alexis decided to start preparing food for him as he laid lazily on his bed. During his time recovering in the medical bay, he already re-watched his fight with the Emperor. The strength of his self-created technique still left him astonished. He could not simply make heads nor tail of it now. “I guess I was missing a lot.” He muttered in resignation. He felt like he was really a country bumpkin before, not knowing about self-created techniques. How could he have been living without such an op knowledge? “Ignorance is really a curse.” After Alexis finished preparing the food, she served, and they both ate to their fill. After spending some time idle talking, she finally went to her room as he also decided to rest. He slept soundly

    After a week of waiting, the award-giving day finally arrived. It was a Monday, and the whole gladiator district was riled up for this day. The spectators could finally see their best gladiators get their awards in the arena. Today, the Neo-Rome team members were going to get the award for their labor of 3 years. After years of only wearing armor and light clothing as gladiators, they were finally going to dress corporately again. Kalen froze in place with a smile on his face, as he stared at his fresh look while dressed in a suit. After so long he finally cut his beard yesterday. It felt funny to him; he already entered the vicious men’s circle of cutting your beard to avoid it looking wild. He was not even sure if Nami would recognize him again if she saw him with a beard. Despite already cutting the beards, the slight sings to indicate that he was a man with beards were still left there. He carefully admired his electric blue suit, as his smile slowly morphed into a grin. Pair

    As usual, medical practitioners on white quickly rushed into the arena with a floating stretcher. They brought cleaning bots with them this time, as the blood and gore were quickly sucked and cleaned throughout the arena. Kalen’s unconscious body was carefully placed on the stretcher, as it directly floated back to the medical bay. As the medical practitioners worked, the commentator finally started his ending speech with a smile. “Ladies and gentlemen, my fellow Sea Angels, we now finally have a winner for this gladiator tournament. After these countless difficulties, we finally arrived at our destination.” “The winner of the gladiator tournament this time is the Lone Dragon, he proved his strength today in this arena.” “I won’t waste your time much, I just want to inform you that according to the organizers; if everything goes according to plan, the award-giving ceremony will be held within the week.” “Let’s all come back for this final event, to establish our winner’s status

    As the atmosphere grew tenser, gulps left throats unconsciously, and speculations rose higher, the gladiators finally moved. Kalen moved first. As soon as he gathered some strength, he used his spear as a support to lift himself off his opponent’s sword. Spurt!! He closed his eyes while gritting his teeth in pain. More blood flowed out of him, as the sword was roughly yanked out of him. His opponent also flinched in pain, as the spear stirred in his abdomen. Thud!! He dropped down to the ground, as he quickly summoned more strength to roll further away from his opponent. He already grew accustomed to pain after so many years of being a knight. He could not directly say that he liked pain, but at least he could bear a lot of pain. Despite this being the case, the pain that he was currently feeling drove deeper into his inner self. He felt like his body was no longer his own, he felt like his body was just a cage where he was receiving torture. He could not help it, as tears flow

    The huge energy that was covering the arena slowly opened, as the 2 strongest gladiators entered without hesitation. World Destroyer slowly took off his helmet, as he faced his opponent with a curious smile on his face. Unlike his opponent’s solemn expression, his was complete opposite, he had a calm look on his face. “Magician, you surprised me yet again. I didn’t think you would have the guts to fight me again. Last time we fought, you did put up with great fight, but you know I am going to kill you. I promise you will regret your decision of walking into this arena.” He slowly said with a smile. Kalen didn’t reply, as his blood was already feeling hot for this fight. He had no time nor luxury to reply to foolish questions. He didn’t come here to discuss, at least he didn’t have that luxury like his opponent. He had an uphill and almost impossible target to overcome, he was ready to put his all. “Enough bullshit! You will know soon enough which one of us is the best. Now, let’s

    Today was the day, that will determine who the strongest gladiator from this tournament. Today was the day that justify all the bloodshed and deaths throughout the past year, in the gladiator arena. Kalen entered the gladiator armory in a solemn mood, as he went forward to where the weapons were kept. On seeing the empty, grey-colored cold chamber, he could not help but feel a sense of emptiness. For weeks now, he had been training to get the required level to win this fight. He did not know why he was anticipating it, but he felt that he would benefit a lot if he emerged as the winner of this fight. Though his thoughts were numerous, they quickly cleared up as he advanced to the spear section of the armory. He stood before the large row of spears, before falling into a daze. Spears spread for as far as his eyes could see. From short spears to long spears, to broad, to thin spears, every type of spear was available. His hands extended forward, as he firmly grabbed the long spea

After months of preparations fights, the date for the individual tournament finals has been finally scheduled. After the end of the team tournament, the gladiators on the teams who won were already eligible to take their awards. Despite this, they don’t get them immediately, as the Sea Angels Alliance extended the award ceremony to the week after the end of the individual fight fights. ********************************************************** Bam!! Kalen’s spear stabbed forward in quick succession, as his opponent hastily raised his spear to parry the strike. His hand blurred, as the stab was quickly converted into a sideways slash. Kane narrowly blocked the strike again, but the force exerted by his vice-captain still pushed him back. As Kalen rushed forward to finish him off, Kane’s teammates finally recovered as he quickly slashed his sword forward in retaliation. Whoosh!! Dere

    The large fleet of vehicles slowly coming into the compound surprised the now freed gladiators, but they suppressed their curiosity and went forward to meet the General. “Good evening, General.” They all greeted respectfully. “Haha, that’s my soldiers.” The General responded with a loud laugh that was unusual for someone of his status, as he went forward to pat them on the shoulders. “Congrats, y’all didn’t disappoint my expectations. Though it is shame we couldn’t get the 1st place position but taking the 3rd place position is already commendable. “My Captain already told you, sometimes ago that we would not shy in terms of rewards if you won the tournament of you ranks, we intend to keep our word.” “Now, taking 3rd place can be seen as you winning to us, so today, I’ll present the awards that we prepared for everyone.” The Neo-Rome Captain finally came forward and placed an exotic metal box before his General.

As she arranged, her mind could not help but drift again to a frail-looking imagination of her mom. At this age where medical technology already advanced so enormously, her being called for indicated how serious her mom’s situation was. There was no way it was a normal illness, which only made her more anxious. “What is so serious that I had to be called for?” She questioned herself again doubtfully. It didn’t take too long before she was finally ready, as she turned around to go. She changed from her old suit into a new suit that she got recently, to present herself in a fresh outlook. Not long after, she finally arrived back at the parade grounds. She was not surprised to still see the summoned horde of knights all standing at their positions in attention.
