Chapter 649 Manuals At The Premium Stage

When Zachary showed up, he was arrayed in resplendent golden white, evidently dressing up for the occasion. He now stood as Vivian's husband-to-be, and with his hands resting behind his back in parade rest, he appeared almost haughty under the gaze of the observing crowd. He made his way towards the stage together with Henry and Jimmy, who bore a number of boxes.

"Harley, the first round isn't over yet, and you don't have to walk onto the stage right now," Shaw remarked as soon as he saw Zachary making his way to the stage.

Both Jaxon and Daniel also spotted Zachary approaching, and for Daniel, it was the first time that he had met him. He took this opportunity to observe him carefully.

"Yeah, why are you in such a hurry? I hope you're not worried that you'd be no match for the likes of them, are you? Because if you can't trust your own capabilities at a time like this, you may as well not go up there," Vivian smirked, her voice laced with sarcasm.

"I think you've understood me, Vivian. The reason I'm heading to the stage is because I can't stand this outrage anymore. How in the world could those guys' treasures ever match as fair a lady as you? Are they serious? Do they take us for fools? It's a scam. Nothing but hoaxes and fakes," Zachary sniffed, his tone disdainful and contemptuous.

At this, those warriors who had already unveiled their treasures stood livid, glaring at him as though they intended to atomize him on the spot. But they dared not speak up against him given the magnitude of his standing, and instead swallowed their anger so as not to be seen hurling hellfire against the Xiao Clan.

For Saul and the blue-robed warrior on the stage, however, they felt their irritation only rise further. So far, things in the match had gone quite smoothly for them. That was, until Zachary had appeared and threw a wrench in the works, naturally pissing them off.

"I wouldn't be so smug if I were you; you haven't seen anything yet! Since you're up here on the stage anyway, how about you show us what you're packing, then? What treasure have you brought?" The blue-robed warrior who was under Daniel's leadership took the opportunity to provoke Zachary. Should Zachary reveal his trump card early, it would give them all a heads-up as to what they'd have to deal with and figure out a way to neutralize it.

"Does anyone else want to stand up to me, then? If there isn't anyone else, then this is all over." Saul's declaration rang across the stage as he surveyed it with an arrogant gaze. If he were to win by default now, he would move up and trade blows with Zachary.

In response, the other warriors merely shook their heads, certain that they didn't have better treasures. Moreover, he still had one treasure in reserve and it was likely going to be one that was even better than the previous two that he had already presented. There seemed to be simply no chance of winning for any of them at this point. They knew better than to embarrass themselves by attempting to fight him with their own meager treasures, especially onstage.

Upon seeing that no one else dared to take up the fight against him, Saul only sneered. He was certain that this meant his victory among all the other warriors present.

"In this case, the winner of the first round has been decided! We'll move on to the next field of competition! We call upon Saul and Harley to step up to the stage!" Jaxon proclaimed loudly over the stage from where he stood.

A tremendous roar rose from the crowd out of sheer excitement. What Zachary had revealed already was beyond imagining, and now they were anxious to see exactly what he would do next. Furthermore, Saul still had one more treasure to unveil on the stage, and it was likely to be the most precious in his possession. Everyone was thrilled and caught up in anticipation at the two's expected collision with such high stakes on the line.
