When Chen Xiao stepped down from the arena, he noticed that everyone else had also drawn their numbers.

Chen Xiao asked, "Who’s that guy who was provoking me earlier? He said his name was Adam, from the Frank Empire’s Adam family."

"The Adam family?" Situ Yue squinted slightly, "It’s a very famous family in Europe, with a legacy spanning hundreds of years in the Frank Empire."

"Since the Middle Ages, the Adam family has been renowned in the Frank Empire."

"I’ve seen information about this Adam. He’s ranked second among Frank Empire’s combatants, quite formidable even on the stage of the Hundred Countries Military Battle. After all, the Frank Empire is an old powerful nation with a rich heritage!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiao nodded, "No wonder he’s so arrogant."

Then, he turned his gaze to Arena Eight.

On the arena, two competitors were exchanging blows, and in less than ten minutes, the battle was over,

Chen Xiao glanced at them and estimated that their strength was at the Peak of Hua Realm.

Not much of a threat to him.

Soon, the first three battles ended.

"Next, let’s welcome contestant number 7 and number 8 to the stage from Arena Eight!"

As the referee’s voice fell, Chen Xiao ascended to the arena.

This time, his opponent was a tall young man with a cropped haircut, long face, and single eyelids, from the Southern Country.

"I’ve heard about you, Chen Xiao, right? You’re quite famous recently. I’m here to test your strength! Remember my name, I’m Park Zheng..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Xiao’s body disappeared from where it stood, his fist landing like lightning on the cropped-haired young man’s abdomen, with explosive power that made the young man’s eyes bulge.

In an instant, the young man’s entire abdomen caved in with an exaggerated arc, and like a cannonball, he was blasted off the stage!

"Cough cough cough—"

After being knocked off the stage, he couldn’t stop coughing up blood, feeling as if his abdomen was churned by a tsunami!

A one-hit KO!

Seeing this scene, many in the audience had their eyes trembling slightly.

Luo Qingli and several other women were excited beyond control, loudly chanting Chen Xiao’s name.

The cropped-haired man was full of unwillingness, cursing with a dark and stormy expression.

Chen Xiao glanced at the referee, who had yet to react, "You can announce the result now, right?"

After a brief stupor, the referee immediately announced the result, "Contestant number 8, Chen Xiao, wins!"

As a person from the Divine Land, he naturally hoped for his compatriots to win.

Chen Xiao’s extraordinary performance also surprised him a bit.

It seems that the arena he presides over is very likely to crown Chen Xiao as the arena champion!

After Chen Xiao, Adam also took to the stage and similarly dominated his opponent.

In this round, five people advanced.

And in this round, there would be another draw, where the two chosen would fight once more, and in the end, one would be eliminated to finalize the top four.

Chen Xiao was in luck and was not drawn.

The two competitors who were drawn were rather unlucky and had to fight once more.

After eliminating one of the five, only four remained.

The top four were then divided into two groups.

Fatefully enough, this time, Chen Xiao’s opponent was Adam.

Upon learning that his opponent was Chen Xiao, Adam also cast his gaze over, revealing a sinister smile, "Looks like this time, you can’t escape!"

Chen Xiao responded with a faint sarcasm, "With your half-baked skills, I can beat you with one hand tied behind my back."

"Then let’s test that!" Adam jumped onto the arena, his muscles suddenly swelling rapidly as if stimulated, making his already tall frame even more imposing, with a menacing aura surging out.

The Frank Empire delegation shouted loudly, cheering for Adam.

"Adam, kill him!"

"Bring glory to our Frank Empire, avenge our fallen comrades!"

"Crush this arrogant guy!"

"..."

Hearing the intense shouting from the Frank Empire side, Chen Xiao sneered and leapt onto the stage, standing with arms folded, coldly staring at Adam.

Adam said coldly, "Though I’ve only recently entered the Half-step Grandmaster level, the Adam family’s unique Body Enhancement Technique boosts my combat strength by twenty to thirty percent. Even against those who’ve been in the Half-step Grandmaster level for years, I won’t fall behind!"

"Today, I’ll break your bones one by one, leaving you wanting death more than living!"

With that, he strode towards Chen Xiao, his massive fist bearing down on Chen Xiao with a fierce gust of wind, with punches filling the sky like cannonballs towards Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao sneered, realizing that Adam’s so-called Adam family Body Enhancement Technique was just a rather rough Cross Training technique that wasn’t particularly advanced.

Thinking this, his body vanished like lightning from where it stood.

Adam’s sky-filling punches hit nothing but air.

"Such speed?!"

Adam was taken aback.

In the next instant, he sensed danger from behind and turned back swiftly!

Chen Xiao kicked him in the butt.

"Thud—"

Adam was kicked to the ground with force, sprawled face down.

"Is that all? Who gave you the audacity to brag like that? With your level, you’re not even fit to lick my shoes!" Chen Xiao mocked mercilessly.

He could have taken Adam out immediately, but he wanted to humiliate Adam in front of everyone with that kick.

"Ah, I’ll kill you—!"

Provoked, Adam leapt up from the ground with even fiercer aura, faint dark light swirling over his skin, giving him a metallic glow that made him look like an impregnable fortress!

"Die!!" he shouted, throwing a punch with overwhelming force, enough to split mountains and rivers.

Chen Xiao grabbed his fist, completely neutralizing its force, then twisted it fiercely!

With a cracking sound, Adam’s arm was twisted into a spiral, dislocating with a contorted expression!

"You wanted to break all my bones and make life worse than death for me?"

"Now, I’m returning those words to you."

With an expressionless face, Chen Xiao continued to punch.

A series of three punches landed squarely on Adam’s chest, each blow hitting its mark hard!
