Chapter 545: Martial Arts Competition for a Marriage
On the first day, the news that the king was selecting a son-in-law spread throughout the streets and alleys of Fishman Island.
But there were not as many applicants as expected.
It's not that Elena is not beautiful enough. In terms of appearance, only Alice can compare with her in the entire Fishman Island.
It's just that most people don't have the courage and confidence.
To give a simple example, a white, rich and beautiful woman is looking for a marriage partner online. Everyone likes her, but not many people dare to pursue her, because people with poor conditions will feel inferior and have no courage to pursue her.
To put it simply, they know what kind of stuff they are and dare not pursue her.
Only those characters who really have certain strength dare to participate.
There were less than 200 applicants in total.
Since Noah's time is limited,
the time of the competition is set on the first day of the announcement.
Ye Xing found Elena and wanted to express his congratulations to her, but found that she was not in a good state. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she couldn't say those words.
Lin Yueer, who is also a woman, saw that she had a problem at first glance and asked tentatively: "Nana, you don't like this way of finding a partner, right?"
Elena shook her head and then nodded: "I think it's good. After all, only the strongest person can be worthy of a princess like me."
After that, she turned back to her room to dress up.
Because after the results of the competition came out, they would be engaged that night, so she had to dress up in advance.
Ye Xing scratched his head: "Why do I feel that she is not very happy?"
Lin Yue'er rolled her eyes: "Do you still feel that way? She must be worried. Nana is so beautiful. What if the most powerful guy is an ugly one? Why don't we help her?"
Ye Xing: "How to help? Take her to elope?"
Lin Yue'er: "It's not impossible."
"Don't worry about it. I have asked her many times, and she said it was voluntary. Since it was voluntary, why bother to ruin someone's marriage?" Ye Xing said to the camera, "Brother Meng, am I right?"
[Foolish Princess: You big-headed ghost, what era is it, and you still have this kind of martial arts competition blind date, it's speechless! ]
[A bunch of little red flowers: The way Nana looked at you just now, it's obvious that the person she likes is you. After all, you have the filter of a hero saving a beauty. You like someone but have to marry another person. Oh my God, it's so pitiful! 】
[Enthusiastic netizen: I feel there is some hidden conspiracy behind this! 】
[East Star Crow: Maybe her father threatened to die? 】
Ye Xing was helpless. He was already annoying when he came here. If he made any more noise, it would only bring trouble to himself.
And Elena didn't mean to ask for help. How could he know the other party's true thoughts?
He could only wait and see.
The Demon God Tower was a heavily forbidden place, and no outsiders were allowed to approach.
Ye Xing came here to apply for Elena's permission to enter.
But it seemed that there was no chance to start.
He could only wait until the game was over.
Before that,
he just had to be a spectator.
It was different from the Death God promotion match held by Pirate Island before.
It was all 1V1 here.
That is, fighting alone.
Because the theme is to recruit a bride, no deadly hand is allowed, otherwise not only will the qualification be cancelled, but also certain penalties will be imposed.
The venue for the competition is the Royal Royal Arena.
There are already a large crowd of people outside.
Bubble built a temporary viewing stand that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
The remaining people can watch through the broadcast on the big screen.
Ye Xing soon discovered some clues.
Half of the contestants are mermaids led by Johnser.
Half are fishmen led by Ke.
On the surface, it looks like a battle of two hundred people.
In fact, it is a battle of two people, or a battle of two races.
It is said that the opponents are randomly selected, but every time it is a mermaid vs. fishman, and there is no collision between the same race.
It is obvious that this game was manipulated behind the scenes.
The game went very quickly, without any fancy things. Both sides used their unique skills at the beginning, and the winner could be determined in a very short time.
"After watching a few games, I found that the attack and defense capabilities of the fishmen are indeed good. Mermen of the same level can only rely on speed and intelligence to win."
"The players on the field are the elites of the two tribes."
"I can see that the king wants to promote Johnser as his son-in-law."
"Because of the rules of Fishman Island, he did this."
"My friends, let me say something unpleasant. Yesterday I saw the king's forehead was black and lifeless. I'm afraid he doesn't have much time."
"Maybe he is worried that after he passes away, there will be no leader, and the fishmen will take the opportunity to make trouble, so he wants to push Johnser to the stage."
"In this way, he can continue to hold real power legitimately."
"At that time, whoever dares to make trouble will be labeled as a rebel and will become the enemy of the entire country!"
Ye Xing said half-guessing and half-speculating.
【I understand, but I don't understand completely. 】
【But what if Johnther loses? Will he really let the princess marry the ugly fishman? 】
【Since he dares to do this, the possibility of losing should be small, right? 】
"At present, Johnther's side has the advantage."
"Because we can decide who fights who, putting Johnther and the weaker fishman together in PK can save a lot of energy for you."
"The same reason, send some mermaids with good fighting power to consume the energy of Ke, so that when the two of them face John, the chances of winning will be greater."
"Hey, no, why is the list messed up?!"
When the list of the first round came out, Ye Xing found that the mermaid's strong men were arranged to face the mermaid's strong men.
Isn't this equivalent to one's own people fighting against one's own people?
Those contestants were also confused, the situation was not right.
Johnther immediately sent someone to check, and it turned out that the person behind the scenes was bribed by Ke and set them up.
But in the public eye, there was no way to make a temporary change.
As a result, some powerful fighting power of the mermaids was wasted in vain.
In the third round, there were only 50 contestants left on the field.
Among them, 38 were masters of the fishmen.
12 were masters of the mermaids.
The ratio of the number of both sides was seriously unbalanced.
At this time.
The mermaid who was bribed by K. took the initiative to stand up and say that Johnsel cheated the rules. It was really a vicious dog biting the first person.
Johnsel would naturally not admit it.
K. didn't care either. His real purpose was to make everyone feel that they were treated unfairly.
So he made his own request.
"For the sake of fairness, I want to apply to change the battle mode. Instead of randomly assigning opponents, I want to directly defend the ring to determine the winner. What do you think, King?"
K.'s kiss was not respectful at all, but full of aggressiveness.
The fish people in the audience started to make a fuss and asked for a change in the rules.
Being accused by "one's own people" is like a dumb person eating bitter herbs and having no way to say it.
King Noah had no choice but to agree to change to a defense battle.
What does this mean?
It's equivalent to 38 people fighting 12 people.
The chances of the mermaids winning are getting slimmer and slimmer...
