Both Ocean and Aiden were powerful and from influential families. After realizing that the Martial Arts Competition would take place, they privately won over the favor of a few young martial arts masters.
They wanted to eliminate the useless martial artists during the competition and make them withdraw once they saw both of them. This was to save time.
So, a while later, a muscular man approached Felix and crossed his arms. He said coldly, "Do you dare to fight with me? I don't think you're qualified to sit here."
Hearing that, everyone looked over. They knew that something dramatic was about to happen. Fights were common in the banquet, so long as no one died in the process.
However, Felix continued snoring.
When they noticed that, a few people didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They wondered who Felix was and why he was sleeping there.
As expected, the muscular man was infuriated.
Just when he was about to attack, Ronan stopped him. "How can you disturb Felix's sleep? Let me fight with you instead."
The muscular man was contemptuous. He was a martial arts master in Aetherial Realm. He soon threw a punch at Ronan.
Alas, he flew into the air at the next moment.
All this while, Ronan remained silent and went back to his seat, acting as if nothing happened.
Meanwhile, Ocean looked unhappy. Ronan had been chosen to fight Aiden's men, but the former kept protecting Felix.
After that, the fight officially started, and everyone kept battling one another. All of them restrained themselves. So, although the space was a little small, the martial artists' skills could be determined. Anyway, this was the main purpose of the banquet.
"Can you fight with me, Ms. Nichols?"
"Forget it. You can't compete with him." Aiden stopped Ocean. He acted with tact—the banquet was hosted by Ocean, so if someone defeated him, it would be too humiliating.
Besides, Ocean wasn't a match for Ronan at all.
"Humph! I'll let him off first. If I meet Felix at the Martial Arts Competition, I'll give him a hard time."
Suddenly, someone started laughing. This made everyone frown. Those who attended the banquet were powerful martial arts masters. Who was making a ruckus at the moment?
"You keep hiding. If you've got the guts, come out!"
Just then, someone stood in the center of the courtyard. They were dressed in black, and their face was covered with a veil, so no one knew what they looked like.
"Since all of you are here, I won't have to find you one by one. Go die!"
