The next morning, Randy and Zhen Yi got up at 7 am and walked toward the Happy Restaurant together.
On the way, Zhen Yi asked, "I haven"t finish listen to your story, so what"s the end?"
"If I am not wrong, the last I heard is the fear in your heart already gone because of me. So what"s the sequel?"
"It"s already finished, there is no sequel," The story itself already finished, he didn"t lie. His next words were just his commitment to her and the mood was not here, different from the last night when she just finished her life story.
"Eehhh, somehow from your voice I could hear that you are sulking. It"s because I didn"t listen to yours till the end?" Zhen Yi said with a teasing smile while looking at her husband.
Afterward, she approached her lips toward her husband"s ears and whispered, "Actually, I heard everything you said last night. If I am not mistaken, your next words are, I need to become strong so there will be no one bully you again harm my family…"
Zhen Yi repeated the words he said last night till the last where he stopped.
"So, what is the next? It seems you are not finished your word," Zhen Yi smiled.
Randy felt he was being played around by his wife. He ignored his wife and increased the pace of his steps.
Today, the Happy Restaurant will not open for business. Why? Because the owner wanted to watch her son, fight in the Ascension Tournament so the restaurant closed for today.
Randy and Zhen Yi entered the restaurant. Inside the restaurant, the breakfast was ready on the roundtable in the middle hall of the restaurant.
All members of the Happy Guild on the table, except his mom and his mamin-law.
"Good morning everyone," Randy greeted with a bright smile on his face. Zhen Yi also followed in a suit greeted everyone on the table.
He sat beside his dad and Zhen Yi sat beside him while in the next her, was Mika. Just his wife sat, she and Mika immediately started the conversation. These four sisters were so close.
Afterward, Randy turned his head to his dad, "Dad, where are my mom and my mamin-law?"
Because the peoples were less two people, they will not start to eat the breakfast before the members were complete.
"Soon she will come here with your mama," Wisen waved his hand to Randy.
"Oh," All peoples were busy with their own world. The four sisters chatting, Auntie Yunita and Auntie h.e.l.len, while the trio his dad, Uncle Daniel, and Billy.
After a while, the entrance opened, Almira and Sun Xiu entered. Almira smiled brightly, she looked very happy as if she won a lottery.
"All right, lets we start the breakfast," Almira immediately sat down and her mamin-law followed in suit.
"Mom, what"s up? You look so happy, something good happened?" Randy asked his mom curiously. Rarely his mom behaved like this.
"Lets we eat the breakfast first, later you will know. Just eat your breakfast first," Almira waved her hand with the smile that never left from her face.
After the members were complete, they started the breakfast. They spent 30 minutes for the breakfast.
Just when they wanted to the arena where the tournament held, Almira stopped them.
"Wait wait, I wanted to give something for our warrior before the tournament start," She said enthusiastically.
"Oh, what is it? And who is the warrior?" Randy asked the question that he already knew the answer. Of course, he knew the warrior was him.
Afterward, Almira took out two white cloaks and two black cloaks from her Storage System. She gave 2 cloaks to Zhen Yi first, one black and one white while gave the rest to him.
"What is this for, mom?" He opened the white cloak. The cloak was white plain and there was a picture in the cloak. Of course, the picture was a smiling emoji, the emblem of the Happy Guild.
"This is your costume for you in the tournament. We should spread out the name of the Happy Guild like other guilds. They put their guild emblem in their armor, but because there is no one in our guild could do that, so I made a request to you mom-in-law to create this cloak for you and Zhen Yi, the Happy Guild"s warrior," Almira explained excitedly.
"Also if you become a champion of the tournament, it will promote our restaurant too, when they see the emblem on the cloak, they will think our restaurant so there will more profit,"
Finally, his mom told her real purpose why she requested his mom-in-law made this cloak for him.
Looking at the flag with a smiling emoji on it at the top of the entrance of the Happy Restaurant which three times bigger than the flag on the top entrance of the guild headquarter. Naturally, the peoples who looked at his cloak would think the Happy Restaurant than the Happy Guild. Also, the Happy Restaurant fame was much greater than the Happy Guild.
His mom already planned thoroughly the moment she heard her son would partic.i.p.ate in the tournament.
"Maybe if my mom became the guild leader, Happy Guild also flourished under her hand," Randy mumbled blankly while looking at the cloak in his hand.
"What?" Almira heard her son muttering something but she didn"t hear it clearly. Zhen Yi heard what her husband mumbling was. She smiled funnily while looking the dazed Randy.
"Oh nothing, let us go to the arena, the tournament will begin soon," Randy shook his head.
"Yeah, my plan will succeed only if you become the champion. No, at least the top 16 is good too. It will put too much pressure on you if the target is the champion, so just focus entered the top 16. Also, put your cloak now, it will become a symbol for the Happy Restaurant…" Almira became a chatterbox on their way to the arena where the tournament held.
Randy wore the cloak on his back, he put the black one. On the way, he attracted many attentions. Twelve peoples walked together with him the unique one, with a black cloak with smiling emoji on it. The people attention was on him.
The arena location was in the inner city of East city. Today the inner city will be opened for the public because of the Ascension Tournament, but one must pay the entry fee 10 Gold.
Usually, there were many requirements to enter the inner city of East city. First, one should be a member of the guild, second, the guild must have the permanent building inside the inner city like the Dragon Dynasty and Eternal Shogunate. Third, even though you were a member of one guild that had a permanent building in the inner city, the guild must give the permission first if the member could enter the inner city, or not. So, the only certain member could enter the inner city.
This was the first time for him to enter the inner city. Inside the inner city was different from the outer city. The building here made of stone like building in the medieval period of Europe.
After walking for 5 minutes, he saw a traditional huge Chinese building. On the top entrance gate, there was a huge plaque and Dragon Dynasty written on it with golden in color. In the front of this building was the Eternal Shogunate building, the traditional j.a.panese building.
"Mom, later if we have the money, we should buy the building like this too," Randy whispered to his mom while pointed his finger toward the two buildings.
"Become the champion, and we can buy the building here. But I doubt you will become the champion, so don"t put too much pressure on yourself, just focus enter the top 16 it"s already good enough," His mom doubting him if he could become the champion or not.
Randy could only shake his head bitterly.
"Later, I will show my prowess," He said in his heart.
In 10 minutes, they arrived at the arena. He was shocked looking at the majestic arena in the front. The arena was like a Colosseum in the Rome, Italy. But it was different in size from the Colosseum in the Rome, this Colosseum was two times bigger. Also, there were nine colosseums like these that circled the biggest colosseum in the middle. The size of the biggest colosseum was 5 times bigger than the others colosseums.
All the colosseums surrounded by 3 meters walls. At the gate of the entrance to the arena, there were 20 men wore a golden armor. The Happy Guild gang walked together and approached one of the men wore the golden armor.
"How can I help you?" The men wore a golden armor asked in a deep voice.
"I am one of the partic.i.p.ants of the tournament. I want to ask about the arena where the tournament held," Randy asked with a smile. There were 10 Colosseum in totals, he didn"t know where the tournament held.
"Where is your card that you got after you registered for the tournament?" The man wore a golden armor asked.
Afterward, Randy took out the card that number 77 on it and gave it to the man wore a golden armor.
The man wore a golden armor checked the card, after checking the card for a while he gave it back.
"Your arena is in the front," The man wore a golden pointed the Colosseum in the front of them.
After knowing the location of the arena, the Happy Guild gang headed to inside the arena. Inside the Colosseum, there were 4 four stages for the fight. Each stage size was 10x10 meters.
The partic.i.p.ants and the spectator"s place were the same, in the spectator seats. After waiting for 30 minutes of the opening ceremony, the first fight will begin.
The total partic.i.p.ants took part in the tournament was 90,000. Each arena was 10,000 partic.i.p.ants and the partic.i.p.ants would be eliminated until 625 partic.i.p.ants left from the 9 arenas before the next elimination match.
So, today there were two matches for every partic.i.p.ant for two days. So today Randy will fight for two matches.
What shocked him was the method of the selection of every partic.i.p.ant who would fight. The partic.i.p.ant would be randomly chosen for every match. How? On the top of each stage, there was a hologram.
??? vs ???
In the selection, the question mark would be changed to the number. The number in the card every partic.i.p.ant got after registered for the tournament. He didn"t how the hologram appeared on the top of the stage, it was like technology on earth but there was no device on the arena to make the hologram appeared.
After a while the match officially began, the question hologram on the top of arena began changed to a number.
On the top one of the arena, his number appeared also his opponent"s number also appeared.
77 vs 1304
"It"s my number," Randy exclaimed in surprise, he didn"t think that his number will come out for the first match.
Looking at his number appeared his mom looked toward him worriedly.
"It"s okay mom, I will finish him in a few seconds," Randy said confidently.
After finished his words he headed toward the stage where his number appeared. Arrived at the stage, his opponent also arrived.
Randy appearance attracted many attentions in the arena because of his conspicuous cloak.
His opponent was a member of the Dragon Dynasty because from the armor he could see the golden dragon picture, the emblem of the Dragon Dynasty. In his hand was his weapon, a huge ax that bigger than the holder.
There was a man wore golden armor on the stage as the referee of the match. The man wore golden armor turned his head toward the Dragon Dynasty member and asked.
"Are you ready?"
That Randy"s opponent nodded his head and the man wore golden armor turned his head toward him and asked again,
"Are you ready?"
Randy also nodded his head.
After the man wore a golden armor finished, he shouted, "The match start,"
They didn"t immediately clash. Randy"s opponent stared at him and said in displeasure with an arrogant tone,
"Take out your weapon, you think because your rank in the top 20 of Level Ranking you can beat me easily,"
Randy didn"t give any response toward his opponent. He just stared at his opponent.
"Heh, even though I want to defeat you but I want to defeat you in a fair match, also by defeating you I will get a superior Ancient grade weapon from Long Zhemin, he set a reward by defeating you but I want to defeat you by fair match. I will show you the prowess of the Dragon Dynasty and the outcome for offended us, THE DRAGON DYNASTY," Randy"s opponent said arrogantly also in the last of his words, he emphasized the word of the Dragon Dynasty.
"Are you done? Or is there more words you wanted to say to me?" Finally Randy responded in a flat tone.
"If you already said all you wanted to say then let we start the match, I said to my mom just now that I will beat you in a few seconds. Your speech already took almost a minute," Randy finished his word in displeasure.
"You…" Randy"s opponent pointed his finger at him but he could not say anything to him.
"All right, I hope you won"t regret to fight with me without a weapon," Finished his word. He was squatting while holding his ax with his two hands in the front.
Looking at his opponent posture, Randy somewhat felt familiar with this posture. Afterward, he saw the opponent leaped toward him. Finally, he knew why the move somewhat familiar. It was the One-Horned Demon Kolor Ijo move.
Randy just looked calmly at his opponent in the air, he didn"t nervous or panic looking at the opponent.
Boom!
The huge ax hit the stage"s ground. The dust the aftereffect of the attack enveloped both of them the spectator could not see anything. Also, the sound of the attack attracted many spectators. They were curious about what happened to the match.
But not long after, a human shadow flew off from the center of the dust that enveloped them. The human shadow flew off through the stage and hit the wall barrier of the Colosseum.
