"This Apolaki kid is definitely from our clan. Our martial arts are not taught easily to outsiders." Adrian's mother muttered as she could see the resemblance. She could even say that the way Apolaki fights is also something else, but the core moves are baked into his body.

The three decided to keep a close watch on the player named Apolaki as per the suggestion of Adrian's mother. The fact that his mother raised this concern made him a bit wary of his surroundings. Adrian's mother never likes to talk about her family despite all his begging. She is even more tightlipped than his father.

Lunch has finally ended, and the participants already returned to their seats while the others just chose the dine out option. Their food did not cook fast enough for them to eat in the restaurant, but this stadium is different from anything else.

Those that book the tickets for the general seating is definitely the best affordable way to watch the fights. Not only does robotic food vendors can take your order, but the arm of the chair also has a secret function that created a makeshift desk for them to place their food.

Even small things like this are becoming viral due to a lot of people praisng that Atlas Inc. is doing their best for the consumers. They wanted this event to be memorable and made sure that the seating is spectacular as even the smallest detail can make the biggest impact.

"Welcome back everyone! We will now start the countdown for the start of the second event. The players will return back to their flag bases and all flags that were not converted to points will return back to their respective areas.

To those wondering if they will get points because the timer run out while the timer ran out, it is better to accept that the points can only be generated by stealing a flag or protecting their own team's flag. Players get back to your fighting stations!" The announcer stated as they players all returned to the game pods in order for the countdown to commence.

The players all went back to the gaming pods and the screens that showed the events inside the game map returned. The players all returned to their flag bases and noticed that the buffs given to them is not expiring but getting more powerful.

Each flag skill has the important Ignore Terrain effect as long as the flag is planted in your territory. The next thing that it gives is healing of 10 Health points per five seconds. The buffs that the flags radiated is definitely a driving factor for their star players to go and take center stage.

Of all the athletes that is in this event, Hou Yiwei wanted to make himself stand out because he needed to redeem himself from failing. The audience' excitement could not be contained as they found out the heavy hitters are now gaining traction. They all left their respective team flags in the care of their team members.

The audience saw Hou Yiwei, Creepysoo, Totem and Xinthri all made their moves as they will now join the battle. All eyes are on Creepysoo as he is the first one that actually encountered Xinthri. The garuda and the undead prince met up like it was a destined pairing between enemies as the former still sees the undead as something against order.

The next ones who fought is the most interesting as Apolaki, Frey, Hou Yiwei and Totem all met at the dense jungle area. The battle between the four of them is also the most anticipated highlight of this event that it is overshadowing the battle of Faust and Eis against Blade and Mariposa.

"Who would have though that the Prince of the Undead will be the first one that will find me?!" Xinthri stated as he knows of Creepysoo because he is famous for being the revered prince of the undead.

"To think that I bumped into this guy when I was looking for that corpse. I need to get that corpse first since there are also other necromancers present in other teams." Creepysoo stated as he regretted his decision not to use his named undead Nomad. He left it at the base with the protector of the flag as the named undead needed to be there for the concealment to work.

"Cat got your tongue. Nevertheless, you must perish as your king goes against order. The flow of the universe must be restored." Xinthri stated as he lunged himself towards Creepysoo.

"Don Quixote!" Creepysoo stated as his undead knight came out of the ground and blocked the strike that Xinthri threw.

Xinthri looked surprised at the undead that Creepysoo summoned as it is no ordinary undead. It is definitely as strong as Creepysoo. The undead prince started chanting spells in order to aid the undead knight that he summoned. The fight between him and Xinthri is not something to go easy on.

"This is a surprise!" Hou Yiwei stated as he is now face to face with three renowned players. Out of all of them, he is excited to battle Apolaki as he heard from the Twin Blades that he is no ordinary swordsman.

"Why don't we just go our own way and act like we never saw each other." Frey suggested as she has yet to get a flag. She does not want to fight needlessly here because it is pointless. Although, she does want to fight Hou Yiwei in order to defeat him as she was beaten by the latter long ago.

"I agree with that decision." Totem stated as he also does not want to waste his precious skills in fighting a fruitless battle.

Apolaki just nodded with the suggestion but the four did not leave each other's sights. Frey, Apolaki and Totem are all backing away slowly but Hou Yiwei has other plans. He shot three arrows with one arrow for each of the three opponents before him.

Apolaki, Frey, and Totem had no choice but to defend themselves and glare at Hou Yiwei. They then noticed that he is not alone as there are two players hiding behind him. They now knew why the rank one player is confident in facing all three of them.
