Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Chapter 222 First Round, Ruthlessness Of People On Path Of Power



Arkhen was among the 2nd class group. He stood there calmly, not standing out much except for his uber-handsome frame and face. However, there were other 9/10 charm participants as well, and even a few 10/10 people like an elf witch, the fox dude, and a couple more.

Lady Rong also spotted Arkhen and raised her eyebrows.

She didn't meet Arkhen even on the last day before the tournament commencement, so she assumed that he failed. However, the moment she spotted Arkhen and used her soul sense to check him, she was surprised.

With a slight movement of her finger, Lady Rong removed the formation from the suppression seal that allowed Arkhen to renew it.

Arkhen also felt something and knew that he wouldn't be able to renew the suppression seal. If he couldn't control his strength, he would be disqualified.

"We'll have to clear the weeds in the first round. The second round must have 50 participants remaining for each section," said the bald middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows as he looked at participants in the vast plaza hall.

The other middle-aged man and a woman nodded. City Lord Yanshi then waved her hand as he used some kind of power, causing magic circles to appear on the floor of the hall.

A total of five magic circles appeared, each below each section of participants.

Arkhen also felt some kind of space ripples permeating the air before the scenery changed in front of his eyes, and he appeared on a vast empty ground surrounded by trees with over ten thousand participants of 2nd class.

"Attention!"

Everyone looked up and saw a man in his early thirties wearing a dark green leather outfit with a cross-chest metal belt, and a waist belt that hung three pouches.

Aside from that, he wore dashing black glasses and had two metal sabers behind his back positioned in an X shape.

"You can call me Prablade. Now before I tell you about the 1st round…" Prablade said in a heavy magnetic voice as he waved his hand and created a large square curtain in front of the participants.

"After passing that curtain, an Escape Rune will be attached to your body. You can use that in half a second with your thought. So if you want to give up, use it. Now the condition to pass the 1st round:

"All you have to do is to pass that curtain and continue moving in the direction towards that giant mountain thirty kilometers away through this forest. The first fifty to reach that mountain's peak will be the winners and move to the next round," Prablade finished speaking, and in response, the participants started an uproar.

All of them were chaotically speaking, but their topic was similar. Only fifty winners in the first round?! Wtf?

"For your information, the first round has begun," Prablade said with a grin as he looked down at the participants.

Hearing Prablade's words, everyone became fanatic and started moving. A literal chaotic situation ensued.

"Get out of my way!"

*Chriii!*

​ Someone killed a bunch of people by releasing a Plasmic Thunder Field around him.

"Y-You! Senior Prablade, he is killing people!"

"Arghhh!"

Some more people died as a girl released over a hundred fire needles swirling in all directions around her, piercing people and killing them!

"If you die, that's on you," Prablade said indifferently. "You are not here to play. If you are scared of dying, then activate that Escape Rune and return to the Hong-Shen town."

Instantly, many participants used their runes and disappeared.

Arkhen was actually at the foremost of the race because he was flying on his Force Field with his full power. After all, the speed of his force field moving was faster than his purple-star wings.

However, many were catching up to him as he looked back.

"Seven, huh?"

Out of those seven, two were pure humans, one was an elf, while the remaining were Beastkins and Beastfolks.

Out of those two humans, one of them was a girl with flame wings. She was faster than the rest and was quickly approaching Arkhen.

Seeing Arkhen turning to look at them and then turning his head to the front again, a cold glint passed through her eyes. 'This guy… I should eliminate him to reduce the competition in the later rounds.'

She infused energy in her wings and used some kind of skill as a burst of deadly fire feathers shot towards Arkhen from her wings.

Arkhen quickly sensed the energy readings and turned his head. However, he just smiled in the face of incoming fire feathers.

In the next second, everyone was shocked to see all feathers that hit Arkhen's body disappearing! The other feathers that hit some trees exploded, indicating their power.

"How?!" the girl exclaimed in shock.

"Since you attacked me first, then goodbye," Arkhen said with a plain expression while his hands were behind his back.

Soon, everyone saw a large dark red blade wreathed in flames conjuring above Arkhen while he was still moving on his Force Field.

Half a second later, the large dark red blade in the shape of a lance shot towards the girl with flame wings at a breakneck speed, breaking the sound barrier with a boom!

*Boom! Swoosh!*

Arkhen had even infused chaos force in the dark red blade, increasing its overall power, including speed, the intensity of flames, and offense of the slaughter blade.

The girl saw the blade shooting toward her like a shooting star, but her reflexes were fast as she tried to dodge.

However, Arkhen was observing her with focus and also manipulated the blade to the side.

"Noo-!"

The girl's scream was cut short as she failed to dodge it, and the blade hit the left part of her abdomen.

Alas… she disappeared before truly dying.

In the town plaza, the girl appeared as she coughed blood and started screaming in pain since the left part of her abdomen was burned to a crisp along with her organs as blood gushed out.

She quickly took out a pill and a potion from her storage ring before gulping both of them as her wounds started healing. "Damn it! I was not supposed to fail in the 1st round!"

A second after cursing, she sighed and felt regret. She shouldn't have attacked that guy. If she didn't attack him, she would have passed the 1st round!
