Young Master, Your Grenade

She chuckled and said, "My Lord, the rules of the competition clearly state that no one should be killed. There's no need for such theatrics…"

Ronald's face flushed with embarrassment. Admittedly, he had dressed like this out of fear of death…

His feelings toward his ex-wife were complicated. He shot her a glance before snapping, "I didn't want to die before I settled the score with you!"

With that, he turned and marched off with his Hunter Squad in tow.

Watching him leave in such an awkward, cumbersome way, Qin Ji and the others exchanged glances, speechless.

The grandeur of the tournament seemed to be overshadowed by his antics. He wasn't just embarrassing himself—he was making the human race look bad!

They found a prime spot near the arena to sit. Normally, such a prime location would be packed, but because of their notorious reputation, people wisely made space for them.

"Young Master, your EMP grenades," Black Moon handed over a set of blue EMP grenades. Ronald fastened them around his waist, deciding that, for now, he'd keep his storage pouch concealed. It was safer this way.

Time flew by quickly. From the murmurs around him, Ronald learned that the top ten fighters of Yunzhou had all arrived, except for the top-ranked Su Xiaomei from the Tianhu clan and the tournament's main event, Luo Shuihan from the third rank.

Of course, the second-ranked genius, Hu Xiaotian from the Tiger Clan, had arrived but wasn't participating—if he had joined in, the competition would have been over before it even started.

"The City Lord has arrived!"

A loud voice rang out as Li Feiyun, the Lord of Chaos City, appeared on the central platform. After a brief speech, the crowd erupted in cheers, and the tournament officially began!

The matches kicked off simultaneously across five arenas. The rules were simple: knock your opponent off the stage or force them to concede to win. Weapons were allowed, but killing was strictly prohibited—those who killed would be disqualified.

Each arena had a referee—experienced elders from various clans who were chosen by Li Feiyun. These referees were powerful enough to intervene when necessary, as some of the younger participants could be uncontrollable at times.

On the central stage, the first round featured a human youth and a Minotaur!

With the human race at war with the Minotaur Clan, there were no pleasantries. The battle began immediately!

Ronald recognized the human youth—he was one of Qin Ji's subordinates. The young man wielded a heavy sword, clearly focusing on a power-based combat style.

The Minotaur, on the other hand, held a massive axe. The Minotaurs were known for their immense strength, and this one was no exception. The two exchanged powerful blows, their weapons clashing with a sharp metallic sound.

The crowd roared in excitement at the intense fight.

The Minotaur was known for its raw strength, but surprisingly, the human youth began to gain the upper hand after only a few exchanges!

To the untrained eye, it seemed like a fair fight, but Ronald, being more perceptive, quickly deduced that though both fighters were at the Body Refinement Realm, the human youth had reached perfection in his training. His opponent, despite his natural strength, was falling short in comparison.

And just as expected, the human youth made his move. With a loud battle cry, he knocked the Minotaur's axe away and, before the beast could even utter his surrender, slashed off his opponent's arm in a single strike!

Blood sprayed in all directions as the Minotaur screamed in agony.

The referee, his brow furrowed, rose from his seat. After a brief hesitation, he announced loudly, "Victory for the Human!"

The crowd erupted in shock.
