Chapter 683 LXIII. Reforging Destiny
The four champion candidates have been decided! Divine Sword Dragon, Dark Horse Gerdley, Death Dance Julius, and Demon Eye Mad Blade Salert.

On the ninth day of the ninth month of the year, under a sky full of stars and bright lights, we gathered here to celebrate this grand martial arts event, a celebration brimming with passion and dreams.

Let's celebrate the grand opening of the [Mainland Martial Arts Tournament Finals] together!
The four championship contenders need a halftime break to recharge and prepare for the final showdown.

I believe many guests and audience members are even more looking forward to the intermission show, the Stargazing Festival's cultural performance.

Connecting live to the floating stage of the performance that has risen from Dragonstone Square...

At this moment, during the Stargazing Festival, the night sky sheds its earthly halo, revealing a colorful Milky Way formed by countless star clusters, with those dazzling stars resembling burning diamonds.

Was that... a shooting star?

Sorry, I misread it. The stage is slowly descending, more dazzling and captivating than a shooting star. It's a grand stage that brings together top stars, musicians, artists, and singers from the Western Continent to open the highest-level competition in the Western Continent...

The radio station has already started broadcasting the intermission show of the cultural performance.

The time for the ultimate Rashomon-like moment is getting closer and closer. The water is already up to his neck, and it's the extreme strangulation in the suffocation gameplay.

"Win...win?"

Li Site felt a lump in his throat, somewhat unable to believe it. He had only heard on the radio that the qigong guy was so powerful he could fight Godzilla, but he was still killed by Brother Dao.

Now everything is truly ready, except for Zote.

As long as Salert is stronger than Kaden, that's enough. That woman only made it to the quarterfinals, while Dao Ge, no matter what he does next, showed his face in the final battle of the second half, so his words carry different weight. Kaden is a generation lower.

Besides, this vile woman has already surrendered; they're not even in the same league.

Despite not knowing what tricks the Clown King is up to, Brother Dao is still able to rise through the ranks, fighting with his own left hand and capturing himself. What's more, Brother Dao can also open the coffin and give commentary.

Lostella's media outlets are also ready to go. After these celebrities finish performing, their group's close-up photos with Zote will be flying all over the world.

Lisite smiled.

Fame, wealth, the power to dominate one-eighth of the continent, plus an incredibly handsome face.

Once this headshot is sent out, Kagome and Kikyo will surely come knocking on their door like they're on an assembly line.

A giant whale? A stylish head pat, a dodge, and a back-turn execution of the strong crushing the weak, releasing Heaven's Harbor.

To have everything in my possession!
"No, what's wrong with you? You should be happy, everything is going according to plan."

Lisite felt that things had never gone so smoothly before. In the past, the tough jobs were always going wrong, and a slight mistake could lead to disaster. But the ultimate Rashomon was surprisingly smooth.

Despite some minor setbacks, they are all within acceptable limits and will not escalate to the point of disaster. The clown is nothing to fear.

"I never expected Salert to be such a treacherous villain."

Renn clicked his tongue.

“Salter betrayed us; he was just putting on a show with that mask.”

Chuan Che's face was ashen. They used to be so happy when they went to the Cloud Palace together. What did it mean that behind the mask was a young girl's lover?

"If I had known this would happen, I should have killed him."

Morrison really wanted to chop Salette up. He had been humiliated on that open-air platform every day. There were many maids, gardeners, cooks and the like left at Dorringer Manor. After the survey was sent out, it was found that Dorringer treated his subordinates well. Salette was always on guard, so he must have fired his Star Crossbow.

He wasn't satisfied with just endless promiscuity; now that he's an official, he wants to pursue even more sophisticated schemes. He deserves to die.

"That's despicable! I want to wear a mask too!"

Xia Di was furious. He was truly fed up with these people. "Salter is such a scheming green tea. He looks like he's using tattoos to intimidate the government, but he's not as handsome as me. He's just waiting for the right moment to show his face, isn't he?"

Xia Di immediately pulled up his collar to cover his face, then quickly removed it, repeating this process several times before asking everyone, "How does it feel?"

"You lack mystery, so you won't achieve the desired effect. Everyone knows you're the playboy type, so put on some flirtatious act."

Renn felt things were getting out of hand and wanted to restart the crew voting system to deal with all the scheming boys in Heaven's Harbor.

"I don't care anymore, I'm going to wear a mask even when I go to the Narrow Sea. I'll just take it off when it really matters. Okay, okay, Salet, you're playing the game of 'Heroic Competition,' huh? I'll be right there! You're my buddy!"

Shadi has completely lost his mind.

Li Site was speechless. This was a good thing. Good looks were an advantage that could benefit people in the long run. If any of Wang Tingli's darlings took a liking to Dao Ge, they would have to use him for their own purposes. "The cultural performances are all music and dance programs, right? I can't appreciate the figure of the good sister, but I can listen to those musicians and singers playing some tunes."

Lisite has been here for so long, but he has never met any high-end musicians. Sometimes he talks about murder and robbery in the theater, but it doesn't feel very interesting.

Micah has been involved in countless peripheral activities.

This is the first time I've ever heard these popular actresses from the Western Continent, who are touring all over the country, perform a few tricks.

Although the radio's sound quality is a bit poor, it's just a basic communication necessity and hasn't yet developed to the point of Hi-Fi surround sound.

The specially designed floating stage for the martial arts tournament was in place, and the beautiful female host from the broadcast finally took her place on the main stage. After a round of official praise for the Aran government, the tournament's scale, and the halftime show, she began introducing the program.

This song, currently popular west of the Narrow Sea, resonates with countless people facing adversity. It's dedicated not only to the final champion contenders but also to all the fighters who have persevered and burned their hearts out throughout the competition. Next, the Prism Soundcore Band from Gureg will interpret this "heroism," allowing us to feel the power of not bowing to fate through the melody!

"Unyielding my ass! Countless people are here with missions to cause trouble. Wasn't there just a thief who surrendered without a fight?"

Renn was speechless. Gambling and profiteering were all part of the business, with backstabbing and intrigue. Even the underworld was involved in whitewashing. Many people had died in the fighting, and this was all done in a way that was too elegant.

Some of the accompanying pirates also gathered around the radio equipment to listen.

"I know them. I've masturbated to their posters."

A pirate's casual remark was an outrageous statement.

"Who asked you?"

Renn was deeply shocked.

"I once read the legend of the immortals who connected with the heavens, but even the nine heavens could not compare to this place."

Kawachi suddenly started reciting poetry.

He had little contact with Micah. There was a tough battle at the beginning of the year, and Micah had been missing for a while. He didn't know what kind of person Micah was, only the legends about him.

A doctor cannot heal himself; emotional wounds require sexual stimulation.

It's hard to imagine the emotional trauma Micah went through; he's always been a madman, obsessed with Taoism, questioning the yin and yang of heaven and earth.

In my youth, I knew not the harshness of the world; with pure love, I reigned supreme.

The man's love only ended when he died; his tears only dried when his labor turned to ashes.

When the wine is finished and the lamplight fades, I meet a beautiful woman; I envy neither the mandarin ducks nor the immortals.

If life were only as beautiful as the first encounter, one could control gods, ghosts, and even the heavens.

"Immortal Master Mai, tonight we will reforge our destiny!"

Raine realized this too, which meant that Micah might have already arrived at the Imperial Arena. Would he watch the performance, or would he choose to stay backstage and suddenly rush out to rape Qili after his headshots were all over the place?

"Is that woman... about to make her appearance?!"

Li Site's eyes narrowed, those two words ringing in his ears.

To be honest, once you reach a certain level of beauty, there's no room for improvement. But Qili, as the ultimate ceiling of socialites, is not just about high looks; it's about an unparalleled elegance that surpasses all others.

"It might be the grand finale, or it might be in the middle; such a brilliant person is unlikely to be the first to go up."

Xia Di made his judgment.

"It's truly... a battle of destiny!"

According to Liszt, today may be the most important day for Micah. The past and the future are unknown. In the 27th century, for seekers, seeing beauty is like seeing the Way. She is the destination for romantics.

Just as the group had predicted.

Micah...

We have arrived at the Imperial Arena, the venue for the cultural performance.
