“Commander Gardner, are you okay?” At this moment, ra looked at Billy with a slightly serious tone.


    “I’m fine, just a minor injury.” Billy replied with a faint smile.


    “Do you know who did this?” Han continued to ask.


    “Not clear for now.” Billy shook his head in response.


    After a few more words, Han and his wife bid farewell and left.


    “Boss, it seems like the people from the Super Sects intentionally spread the news of your injury, right?” After the two left, Soul Chaser looked at Billy and said.


    “Obviously.” Casey responded.


    “What’s their purpose?” Soul Chaser continued to ask.


    “Very simple.” Casey spoke again. “The first round, when One Sword Schr heard that his opponent was boss, he directly forfeited. The people from the Super Sects must be aware of this. Now, by spreading the news of boss’s injury, when it’s boss’s turn topete, the opponent will definitely try to take advantage.”


    “And for the people from the Super Sects, those three old things have already been killed. They don’t know the extent of boss’s injuries. Now by spreading rumors, they can both trouble boss and take the opportunity to verify his condition. Why not do it?”


    “These people deserve to be killed!” ck Tortoise frowned.


    “Enough, let’s talk about everything after thepetition.” Billy looked at everyone and instructed.


    “Entering the second round today, I want you to mean it. If anyone is eliminated before the top 100 qualifiers, go back and seclude yourself for a month!”


    “Understood!” The group responded after their mouths twitched a bit.


    In this elimination stage, it relied not only on individual strength but also on luck. If someone drew an exceptionally strong opponent, they would surely be eliminated.


    At half past nine in the morning, thepetition officially entered the second round, still elimination, with opponents determined by drawing lots. This time, Billy, Ivy, and Night Orchid all drew the first arena.


    Many people in the audience seemed to recognize Billy, whispering and looking in his direction. The main topic of discussion was guessing whether Commander Gardner was really injured or not.


    The morning matches went on until around eleven o’clock, and it was Night Orchid’s turn. Her opponent was a sly-looking man, and by his appearance, it was clear he was no good. However, his cultivation was not weak, on the same level as Night Orchid, possessing the strength of a half-step War God-Emperor.


    “Orchid, his cultivation is on par with yours, be careful!” Ivy looked at Night Orchid, who was standing up, and reminded.


    “Thanks, Ivy!” Night Orchid smiled and nodded as she walked towards the arena.


    “Tsk tsk, lucky today to be paired with such a beauty!” After Night Orchid stepped onto the stage, the man’s eyes roamed over her figure.


    “Beauty, how should I address you?”


    “What, want to be friends with me?” Night Orchid replied with a smile.


    “Every gentleman seeks a partner like you, beautifuldy. It’s fate to meet someone like you. A heavenly gift that I cannot miss.” The man licked his dry lips.


    “Then tell me your name first.” Night Orchid smiled again.


    “Have you heard of Cerulean Abyss Institute?” The man asked.


    “You’re from Cerulean Abyss Institute?”


    “Judging by your tone, you’ve heard of it?” The man grinned. “Well, that makes things easier.”


    “You should know what Cerulean Abyss Institute represents, right? As long as you agree to be friends with me, after thispetition, I will rmend you to the institute, how about that?”


    “Sorry, I’m not interested in Cerulean Abyss Institute.” Night Orchid raised the corner of her sexy mouth. “Also, sorry to inform you, I originally wanted to give you a chance to turn things around in the resurrection round. But because you’re from Cerulean Abyss Institute, this round will be yourst in thepetition.”


    “Hahaha…” The manughed loudly. “I didn’t expect you to be quite humorous, just my type!”


    “Is that so?” Night Orchid looked at him with a smile. Then, her tone turned cold. “Cerulean Abyss Institute, a parasite of the country. I’ll beat everyone I meet from this institute.”


    After her words, her aura of a half-step War God-Emperor burst out. Then, her figure shed, and with a swing of her curved de, several sharp cold lights shot out.


    “Since you like it tough, let’s y tough!” The man said, pulling out a dagger and meeting her halfway.


    In the next moment, the arena resounded with a series of intense collision sounds, creating a rapid ripple of air. Both of them had the same level of cultivation, and until they unleashed their ultimate moves, they were evenly matched.

    After battling for more than ten rounds, Night Orchid blocked the opponent’s attack with a single sh, then retreated thirty to forty meters.


    “Not bad! To be able to fight me evenly, I like your spicy style!” The man licked his dry lips again. “But, it won’t be so fun from now on!”


    “Really?” Night Orchid sneered. “Come on, don’t waste the time of other contestants. Let’s decide the winner with one move!”


    “Alright!” The man squinted. While speaking, an extremely chilling aura emanated from him, causing the temperature above the stage to drop several degrees.


    Then, a cold breath entered therge knife in his hand, and the de emitted a cold death aura.


    “Lie down!” The man’s tone sank, taking two steps forward, and a sharp de energy several dozen meters long shed towards Night Orchid.


    “The one lying down will be you!” Night Orchid snorted, activating tenfold power into the Crescent Moon Saber. Her aura surged to its peak, then, with a flick of her wrist, she activated the Cold Moon de Technique.


    A curved de energy containing a force that could crush everything shot out swiftly, as if it could break through anything. In front of the cold moon de energy, the man’s de energy seemed insufficient.


    The attacks collided, and the man’s de energy was immediately disintegrated invisibly, while the cold moon de energy continued towards the man.


    “Hmm?” The man’s pupils contracted, and he shivered all over, quickly dodging to the side.


    After the de energy passed, a horrifying bloody wound appeared at the man’s waist, and arge amount of blood spurted out.


    “Ah…” The man fell to the ground, letting out a hysterical cry. And what made him desperate was that Night Orchid apparently had no intention of stopping. After the sh, her figure followed, and almost as soon as the man fell to the ground, she raised her hand and swept it out.


    “How dare you!” A roar came from the west side of the arena.


    However, Night Orchid’s palm force had prated the man’s abdomen. Under the violent force, her opponent’s Dantian was instantly torn into pieces, bing a disabled person.


    “You…” Under the double impact, the man’s blood surged, and his eyes rolled back, fainting.


    “Now, do you believe what I said?” Night Orchid nced at him and said indifferently.


    “Damn, you actually crippled his cultivation!” The elderly man who had shouted earlier jumped onto the stage and roared at Night Orchid.


    “Is that not allowed?” Night Orchid replied coldly. “Thepetition only prohibits killing, but it never said anything about not destroying someone’s cultivation!”


    “You are really damned!” An extremely icy killing intent emanated from the old man.
