Chapter 384 Come on the Stage
There were close to 100 participants in Group A. Gerald thought the first round of matches could last
for two or three hours, but it ended in less than an hour!
“The winner is Sin City’s Rayna!”
Gerald was surprised. It sounded like a woman’s name.
“Ellamae!” At this time, a voice sounded next to them. Gerald looked over and saw several people
walking toward them.
The man in the lead surprised Gerald. It was Ivan!
Gerald did not expect Ivan would come to this competition, and it seemed that he had formed a
team with Ellamae.
Ivan was dressed in a suit and came up to Ellamae and Gerald. Then he frowned. “Is he also invited
by you?”
Ivan looked at Gerald. “What level are you at?”
Ellamae said, “I’m just chatting with him. He doesn’t have any Vital Energy. He came to the
competition to… commit suicide!”
Gerald was shocked. He didn’t expect Ellamae to be so simple and completely believed his words.
“Suicide?” Ivan looked at Gerald with a faint smile. “If you want dead, I can help you.”
Gerald glanced at him indifferently.
Among the participants, Ivan’s level was quite high, ranking thirty–sixth on the Star List. Ivan was
known for his brutality and nicknamed Butcher.
Gerald had few dealings with him. One time was in the bar, and the other was when Ivan came over

However, what Gerald did not know was that Ivan actually worked under Johnnie. Compared to
Johnnie’s other men, Ivan was relatively free.
Gerald did not have much of an impression of him. The only impression he had was Elena beside him,
who was very enthusiastic.
“Don’t talk nonsense with him,” Ivan said, looking up at Ellamae, “Come over. We need to discuss
tactics.”
Ellamae nodded. Then she glanced at Gerald and said, “Remember my word. It’s always good to be
alive.”
After a while, people started returning backstage. Some were injured and were being carried by
stretchers. Others were walking with minor wounds.
Gerald estimated that there were roughly 100 people who had gone in. Probably only half of them
could survive carrying serious injuries for life.
All of a sudden, Gerald found the punk girl in the crowd.
She looked ragged. Her hair was messy, and her stockings were broken, revealing her white skin.
However, she seemed to be in a good mood. While walking backstage, she came to Gerald and smiled
sweetly at him. “I’ve made it through the first round!”
Gerald was surprised. “Are you Rayna?”
The girl smiled sweetly. “Yes!”
Gerald said, “I didn’t see that at all.”
“Do you know why I sat beside you?” Rayna asked.
Gerald shook his head.
“I have an intuition. You should be able to enter the finals too. I will meet you tomorrow,” Rayna
said with a smile.
“Me?” Gerald grinned.
“Yes. I have a feeling that you are an expert and my biggest competitor. So I sat beside
observe you,” Rayna said with a smile.
“Then what did you see?” Gerald asked.
“Nothing yet,” Rayna said.
The two of them chatted on and off.
After around ten minutes, the second round of matches began.

Compared to the first round, the second took an especially long time. Till one o’clock in the afternoon, a
winner finally came out.
It was Dane Braiden, who ranked thirteenth on the Moon List.
After Group B’s competition ended, there was an hour of rest time for the audience to have lunch.
As for Gerald and the others, they were eating backstage.
The food prepared by the host was quite good. It kind of felt like his last feast.
After eating, Gerald closed his eyes to rest.
“Is this your weapon?” Rayna asked Gerald.
Gerald nodded. “Yes!”
“Can I take a look?” Rayna asked again.
“No. But you would see it when you have the chance,” Gerald smiled.
Rayna pouted and said no word.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA loud sound came from the radio. “Participants from Group C, please enter the stage!”
In an instant, a large group of people stood up backstage.
Ivan, Ellamae…
At this time, Rayna suddenly pulled on Gerald’s clothes and said, “Be careful of that person!”
As she spoke, she pointed to a place not far away. It was a man who looked quite short and a bit
wretched.
“Is he good?” Gerald asked.
“Yes. He is Gavyn Jaeden, ranked ninth on the Moon List. Among all these people, he is the best. It
seems that he has brought quite a few helpers. Look at the people beside him,” Rayna said, “The
people next to him should all be at the top level. There are a total of more than ten of them. They are
a powerful force in the Northern District. I guess they want to completely join the Northern
District’s Holy Lord this time!”
Gerald frowned slightly. This kind of combination was indeed the strongest. With more than a
dozen people and an expert like Gavyn, they were almost sure of success.
“Whatever,” Gerald said, “I should go.”
Rayna stood up and
gave Gerald a hug. “Do your best! I look forward to meeting you tomorrow!”
Gerald smiled. “Maybe I will be hacked to death today.”
“No! My intuition tells me that you won’t!” Rayna said.
Gerald smiled, “It’s time for me to go.”
Then, he walked forward.
Valery and the others were sitting on the seats nearest the stage, their eyes fixed on the passage.
People began to come out from the passage.
“It’s about to start,” Kristen said nervously.
“There he is!” Their eyes fell on the center of the field, and Gerald slowly walked out from the
shadow.
