The forthcoming battle was hardly worth discussing. After watching the chaotic fight, nine strong individuals successfully advanced. Initially, none of these nine had qualified to enter the cycle battle, but the formidable foes above them were eliminated by Lu Hong. The mishap in the mid-stage competition caused many gambling agreements to change drastically, significantly influencing many dukes who harbored deep hatred for Lu Hong, who had already been planning where to bury people once the competition was over.
The cycle battle didn't need much description either; no one dared to fight Lu Hong, and all chose to surrender.
Lu Hong, having smoothly secured the champion's seat, received the highest standard of hospitality from Duke Qi An after the mid-stage competition.
Having won the mid-stage competition championship, would there be a surprise in the early-stage competition? Obviously not… wait!
