Chapter 18: The Quarterfinals
A week after the start of the official match, Steel City, Fighters' Apartment.
“...... With the smooth progress of the mixed martial arts competition, the top eight of this competition have finally stood out from tens of thousands of contestants and thousands of teams with a line! In addition to our human race, these excellent and tough fighters also include the ghost face clan from Aiken Star, the giant clan from Titan Star, the dragon clan from Trobot Star, and the demon clan in the abyss rift!
For the first time in history, the best warriors of all races and planets have come together to compete for the throne of the King of Fighters!
The gold content of this fighting competition is so high, excellent squads emerge in endlessly, which team do you like in front of the screen? Welcome to pay attention to the official platform of the fighting competition, write the team name and send it to the official public account, you will have a chance to get a generous prognosticator reward!"
Evan watched the news of the fighting competition broadcast on the sports channel, and in the gorgeous studio, two hosts, a man and a woman, were commenting on the birth of the quarterfinals, and the barrage scrolled on the screen as if they were carnival.
Over the course of the week, they have beaten a wide range of competitors to reach the top eight. Next, you only need to defeat the last two teams to successfully win the championship and become the first champion team in the King of Fighters tournament. Although they have suffered enough in the process of advancing to the quarterfinals, in the face of such an almost historical event, Shamille and Karenz, who have fallen into a frenzy, have completely ignored the pain.
Compared with these two teammates who were almost burning, Evan was much calmer, after all, the prize money of the King of Fighters tournament was nothing to him, and the title of King of Fighters was just a false name. The purpose of his participation in the competition has always been to condense the soul fire, and this competition is a trial of soul and will for him - when to temper the soul and will into a burning flame, when is the end of this game.
“...... Through these days, the players who have advanced to the top eight have fully demonstrated their strength. So for many martial arts fans, which martial artist is the strongest candidate for the king of fighters in this competition, please take a look at the audience's votes!" The hostess smiled and said this, and the camera immediately switched, revealing a burly figure with a height of five meters.
The behemoth had a striking brownish-red beard, a flat face, and a sword mark on the corner of his eyebrows. The eyes are distinctively silver, but there are no pupils in them, only a silvery white that resembles an ocean. He has dark skin, short red hair, and black totemic patterns on his exposed skin. He wears a leather armor with an open chest, and his sleeves are rolled up above his elbows, revealing the knotted muscles underneath.
"This contestant is Potter from Titans! The giants of Titan have been living in a hundred-fold gravity environment, and they are born with a body of steel, and this contestant is the best among them. Through training far more intense than his peers, his body can ignore almost any physical attack, and is immune to damage such as radiation, heat, cold, and strong acid.
Whether it is an audition or an official competition, no martial artist can break through his defenses! His strength is also the strongest in this competition, and he can easily destroy the competition ring, it is simply a steel fortress that can walk!"
The screen kept switching, playing a wonderful short video of Potter defeating his opponent, and finally cut back to the host: "Because of such excellent qualities, Porter has gained a large number of fans, and is also considered to be the top three of the 'most potential fighters'!"
"A monster of this size...... Even if you encounter an opponent of the same level, you can use your innate endowment to crush and win. Evan took a sip of juice and complained silently.
"Then the next "Most Promising Boxer" No. 2 - this fighter on the screen!" The camera jumps again, the frame freezes on the competitive platform, and the frame of a martial artist quickly zooms in and becomes clear.
This is a young martial artist in his twenties who wears a white forehead guard in the shape of a turban with a combed mid-hair style. He wears a white jacket with a silver star badge on his upper body, and a black long-sleeved shirt with a cross pattern. He wears dark jeans with a silver chain at the waist as an embellishment. The back of the gloves and jacket are embedded with silver star-striped badges.
The fighter, who didn't give his name, calls himself Zero and has a mixed martial arts skill that can be described as a stunt! However, with the progress of the game, his strength can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds, and every time he fights a match, regardless of the outcome of the victory, his strength will inevitably improve by leaps and bounds! Because of this, he can suppress the Flame of Destiny fighter with super learning ability, and is known as the most talented martial artist in history!"
At this time, the camera switched back to the broadcast studio, and the hostess didn't realize the change in the camera, and was staring at Zero with an obsessive face, and her expression was almost drooling. She was so unconsciously exposed to the camera, and was stepped on by the male host to reflect, and after a sudden tremble, she immediately changed to a serious expression:
"This fighter is characterized by getting stronger and stronger the more he fights, and the more he frustrates, the more he seems to have endless potential. Therefore, he won the vote better than Porter and became the second place with the most potential for the king of fighters!"
One by one, one by one
“......”
Evan didn't care about the hostess's ugly state at that moment, his attention was focused on Zero, his left index finger unconsciously tapping the armrest, and the light in his pupils became brighter and brighter.
Zero's performance in the mixed martial arts tournament can be said to be extremely eye-catching, and in less than half a month, he has grown from an ordinary martial artist to a strong contender for the throne of the king of fighters. There must be the help of the Ives Ancestor gene pool, although I don't know how much knowledge he has digested, but as long as he maintains this momentum, it is very likely that he will activate the magic skill in this game!
It's also a great honor for Ivan to witness the pinnacle of mixed martial arts and bring to life a feat that no one has been able to surpass for thousands of years.
"Presumably, after learning about the strength of Potter and Zero, the audience is already guessing what kind of characters can beat them!?
The hostess gritted her back molars and instructed without smiling, and the camera immediately switched to a tall man with yellow skin and black hair and totem paint on his face.
The contestant's eyes were sunken and his long dark brown hair flowed like a waterfall on the red cloak, and the surface of the cloak was covered with golden scales that hung down to the ground. The leather armor of his body protected only the important parts, so that the knotted muscles of his arms were exposed—his forehead was broad, his cheeks were sunken as deep as a knife, and he pursed his thin lips, giving the impression of not being angry and arrogant at first glance.
He's the first person to be considered 'The Most Promising Fighter' by martial arts enthusiasts, and from the preliminaries to the present, the fighter has maintained a strong record of defeating his opponent in one round. And as we all know, the team led by the Plough Khan, except for him, are all mediocre fighters, and they have never played in official matches! Every game is easily won by the Plough Khan with one enemy against three, such a strong record, conquered many fighting fans! And overpowered Zero and Porter, becoming the strongest fighter in the eyes of many audiences!"
"It's him!"
Ivan sat up jerk and leaned close to the screen, observing the man known as the Plough Khan, who he remembered sharing a space shuttle with his opponent, and was impressed by the powerful aura of the Plough Khan when he glanced through the closed door.
There's no going wrong, this is the guy!
If it weren't for this person, who else would have the ability to overpower the number zero who bears the blood of the ancestor and is praised by the public as the strongest martial artist!?
