Chapter 1412
Each participant wouldpete in a one-on-one battle with an opponent of their level within their
category. At the end of thepetition, the top three participants of the lower levels would be
qualified topete in the higher- level categories.
In addition, each category''s top achievers would also be rewarded handsomely.
The first category topete was Yellow Level, which was the lowest level. Obviously, the
spectators were unimpressed by the contestants from this category, as they only had average
fighting skills and the fights were boring.
However, some of the audience who came from powerful and influential families watched the
competition with fascination.
They were interested in the low-levelpetitions for a reason. The main purpose of them was to
single out talented martial artists who had the potential to develop their skills. They were waiting to
see which of these participants could show off their strength ande out on top.
Many of these powerful families and ns would recruit the top performers on the spot and provide
them with formal training. This way, the families could expand their own team of future martial artist
experts.
Moreover, the participants were mostly young disciples who came from upper-ss families. They
saw thepetition as a chance to practice their skills and a tform to prove themselves to the
public, and to make a name forthemselves.

For this category, multiple pairs of contestants fought simultaneously in separate fighting rings. The
competition went on very fast, and within two hours, the top ten winners were determined.
Among the top ten, eight of them were young martial artists who came from prestigious
backgrounds. The other two were dark horses who finally got to showcase their talents during the
competition. One of them was immediately recruited by the Martial Arts League, whereas the other
one was taken under an influential family''s wing.
Thepetition paused for a short while after the Yellow Level category matches ended. The next
round would be the ck Level category.
The audience was obviously more interested in the ck Level matches than the Yellow Level.
Most of them belonged in this level after all. Besides, a lot of them signed up to participate in this
category too.
Thepetition resumed shortly after, and the participants were called to the stage to draw their
lots. The numbers they drew would determine their order. Two participants of consecutive numbers
would battle against each other.
Jasmine was currently at the early stage of ck Level, thus she signed up to participate in this
category.
After drawing in a deep breath, she got up from her seat and stepped towards the fighting ring on
theke. Her expression was tense, and her soft hands were tightly clenched into fists.
Overwhelmed by her nervousness, her steps wobbled as she walked.
Noticing her response, Fade quickly patted her on her back and whispered in her ear, "Jasmine,
calm down. You are stronger than most of the participants here, so don''t be afraid of them. Besides,
I have taught you well. You have to be confident in yourself, do you understand?"
She rxed under his reassurance and turned around to look at Fade in the eye as she nodded
solemnly. "I got it, Mr. Chen!"
"Alright, go ahead!" He said, tilting his chin towards the fighting ring.
Meanwhile, Tom and his friends were also walking towards the stage to draw their lots. The four of
them had also signed up as ck Level participants.
The participants were notified of their order for thepetition soon after. Jasmine drew the
number 88, which was rtively behind. At least she had the opportunity to watch other participants''
matches and gauge their strengths to prepare herself.
Thepetition began, and simrly, a few different pairs of opponents fought against each other at
the same time.
The arena was suddenly filled with all kinds of noises: the shouts of the participants as they fought,
the whistling sounds of their positive energies, the smacking sounds of bodies mming against
each other, and the horrifying screams of pain. The arena immediately descended into chaos.
The audience was intrigued by the sight of such brutal battles, and they hollered and shrieked
excitedly. Some of them cheered for their friends, whereas some of them were busy cing their
bets at the gambling stalls on the roadside.
Fade scanned through every arena and took note of the battle results. Whenever he saw the
average strengths of the other participants, his confidence in Jasmine grew. Although her level was
not high, he had taught her to cultivate his unique martial arts technique. Besides, she had the rare
Green Wood Spirit, which was something ordinary martial artists could not surpass.
cing a hand under his chin, he predicted that with Jasmine''s current strength, she would most
likely be able to defeat an ordinary advanced-stage ck Level martial artist. However, that would
not be the case if she was to fight against one from a powerful n or a peak-stage ck Level
martial artist.
As he continued to observe the fighters in the arena, he noticed a few familiar faces. He narrowed
his eyes and carefully watched the battle results of Tom and his friends.
Tom had just entered the early stage of ck Level, and his fighting skills were only average.
However, he got lucky in the first round, where his opponent was just like him, a beginner in the
ck Level.
After an intense battle, Tom managed to advance to the next round.
Lillian, who was also in early-stage ck Level, was not as lucky as Tom. Her opponent had easily
defeated her in the first round. However, Halge, with his middle- stage ck Level skills, and
Hertzel, ate- stage ck level martial artist, qualified for the next round.
Thepetition went on without dy, and soon enough, it was already Jasmine''s turn to fight.
The opponent who fought against her was a middle-stage ck Level self learner. He was not
famous among the circle, but judging from the energy he gave off, his strength was decent.
Everyone''s gaze was instantly drawn towards Jasmine as soon as she stepped onto the stage.
Her charm was undeniably one of her fascinating characteristics. She was always able to catch
people''s attention on any asion, even more so in such a hot- blooded situation. Jasmine''s
delicate beauty piqued the audience''s interest and curiosity. She immediately became the center of
everyone''s attention.
Tom and the group, who had just finished their first round of battle, spotted her as she walked onto
the stage. Their jaws dropped as they looked over to Fade.
"That girl! She''s the girl who was with Brother Fade!" Tom gasped.
Lillian, who had just been eliminated from thepetition, looked displeased. She frowned and
muttered, "What''s so interesting about her? She''s just another pretty face. I bet she can''t even take
three blows from her opponent. She''s definitely going to lose."
Halge''s eyes glinted in delight as he licked his lips and said, "I hope that she can advance to the
next round. If I was to fight against her in the next round, we can have a good time together."
Hertzel squinted and shifted his attention to the other stronger opponents. Obviously, he looked
down on Jasmine.
Under the crowd''s anticipatory gaze, the referee announced that Jasmine''s battle with her opponent
had officially begun.
The opponent was taken aback by her looks too. He smiled and said, "Miss Zhuo, I''ll go easy on
you. After all, it is not a gentlemanly gesture to hurt a beautifuldy."
She scowled in disgust and scoffed, "We are in a martial arts arena, so you''d better go all out!"
"Ms. Zhuo, I..." As he was about to say something, her figure shifted, and with a blink of an eye, she
was already charging towards him.
He did not take her attack seriously and casually struck out his palm to defend her attack. However,
his eyes widened in shock as her positive energy was shooting dangerously towards him. He could
feel that her positive energy was imposing and even more powerful than his own.
