After a long time, the defeated arena lord finally struggled to get up from the dueling platform. His body was covered in charred black burn marks as he staggered down the dueling platform.
He knew that he had lost.
And he had lost miserably!
Not to mention the trouble he had caused Joelson.
He did not even have the slightest ability to resist!
By the time the defeated arena lord flew down from the dueling platform, the plaza was still quiet. The arena lords on the other dueling platforms were waiting as well.
They were waiting for the referee to announce the start of their duel.
The referee flew up onto the dueling platform and looked at the people in the plaza of the Imperial Capital. He said, "Is there anyone else who wishes to continue challenging Joelson?"
The plaza became even quieter. It was as though it had descended into a deathly silence.
Not a single person issued a challenge.
The reason was very simple.
