175 Fighter Anteriority - Part 3

The hype of Fighter Anteriority spread until the outer region. These people usually did not talk about heroes and bankers. Now, they started to talk about their heroes.

Their champ in Fighter Anteriority who was going to win the competitive scene. Under the category of Senior Fighter, Sun Zhou Yi's name became the favorites of the people from the outer region, especially for the north region.

Sun Zhou Yi was their hero for stopping Level 10 Calamity which usually would wreck the outer region. Most of them could not wait to watch Sun Zhou Yi in action.

From the footage that went viral, Sun Zhou Yi was called "Sword God" by these people.

Heero who just served the order stopped at the bar, listening to two middle-aged men. They were in a heated discussion, excited talking about Sun Zhou Yi.

"I bet on Sun Zhou Yi that he will lift the trophy at the end of Fighter Anteriority!" A middle-aged man confidently voiced his thoughts.

"Haha… Great minds think alike, how much do you bet?" The middle-aged man's friend replied with a laugh and slurped the noodles into his mouth.

"I bet 1.000 WD on Sun Zhou Yi! What about you?"

"Wow! You are so confident! I only bet 500 WD on him!"

"Tsk, he is my hero, our hero. Of course, I am confident in him!"

"But Wu Jiang Shan and Wu Shen Lei have higher odds in winning. Moreover, the prince of the Regal Kingdom, Gerard William Kingsman also joins Fighter Anteriority. People say he is equal to Emperor Class Hero!"

Yes, Wu Jiang Shan was the third Emperor Class Hero that joined Fighter Anteriority. The crown prince of the Regal Kingdom, the former United Kingdom also joined.

Added two Emperor Class Heroes from Moon City and Sun City, the odds of Sun Zhou Yi winning Fighter Anteriority, in fact, was small. Moreover, there were six Legend Class Rankers who also participated in the Fighter Anteriority.

And so, this year Fighter Anteriority of Senior Event was the most awaited event. But it was still three weeks before the senior event started.

Even so, the two uncles were excited about the upcoming event. Heero merely smiled at the two uncles' discussion.

He looked at the 82-inch tv, it was the fourth day of Fighter Anteriority. Today was supposed to be the day of the Junior Event. Different from the Senior Event where the participant clashed directly in the arena, there were two phases for the Junior Event.

The first phase was survival, the participant would be placed in a large forest. They had to survive for three days in this large forest and proceeded to the next phase.

The next phase was where the kids fought in the arena. Today, the Hero League sent the kids within 15 and below to their private land in the southwest of Star City.

The event would be broadcasted on the TV.

"It started!" One of the customers in the shop shouted as the screen on TV showed the kids lining up before a big gate.

Beastial Forest, it was a forest filled with beasts. However, the Hero League was making sure that the strongest beast in the forest was equal to Silver Class Hero only.

So it would not be too dangerous for the children. After all, they regarded these juniors as their next generation to protect the city. The Hero League also sent the heroes to protect the kids from the dark.

The Hero League was doing its best to ensure the kids' safety in the survival phase.

When the other customers heard the shout, even the two uncles turned toward the TV.

"Oh! He is Wu Shen Lei!" The uncle exclaimed in surprise as he pointed his finger to the man who was currently making a speech before the kids.

"Ah, so he is Wu Shen Lei! He does not like someone stronger than Sun Zhou Yi. He looks like a mommy boy to me!" The other uncle did not like Wu Shen Lei as he rudely voiced his thoughts.

Wu Shen Lei looked dashing and extremely handsome. Along with his long hair, he almost looked like a beauty with long hair. His voice was deep and firm as strong confidence was radiating from him.

When the name "Wu Shen Lei" entered his ear, Heero immediately looked up. He heard the betting site favored this guy more than his disciple, so he was curious.

"Careful with your words! If someone reports you to Wu Family, you are done for. Moreover, don't judge a book by its cover!"

"Lately, he was missing in action and I heard the rumor that he was following his great grandfather for training. Do you know who's his great grandfather? Wu Jiu Wen, the former Emperor Class Hero - Rank 1!"

"Moreover, he is not that far from Sun Zhou Yi in the ranking. Wu Shen Lei also Gold Class Hero - Rank 3. You can't underestimate him!"

It seemed the other uncle had been doing his research. He almost knew everything about Wu Shen Lei.

The speech did not last long, Wu Shen Lei ended his speech with encouragement for the kids. After that, the heroes in the location arranged the kids to enter Beastial Forest.

"Boss, I heard Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun participated in the junior event? Have you bought the exclusive broadcast for them?" A customer raised his hand and asked.

With that question, only then the two uncles stopped their heated discussion and turned toward him.

The other customers also looked toward Heero. Yes, there was a special broadcast that could be bought individually to watch a certain individual during the survival phase.

It seemed these regular customers wanted to support both kids.

"Mnn…" Heero nodded his head and the customers cheered excitedly after that.

Sure enough, after all the kids entered Beastial Forest, the screen was split into two. The left side was Dong-Woo and the right side was Xu Lingxun.

Tiriring! Tiriring!

Not long after that, the door opened. Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon were doing their daily visit. Yes, Bai Xin Yue also visited the shop daily just like Kang Seo-Yeon.

Both girls immediately looked at the TV as soon as they entered the shop. They were relieved to see the broadcast just started.

As soon as both girls entered the shop, a wave of greeting came to them. They were used to such a scene and returned the greeting with a nod.

The middle-aged man immediately asked his friend, "What about Ice Queen?"

"Ice Queen is 17th seed…" the words trailed off as Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon walked to their usual spot.

"Sweet and Spicy…" Kang Seo-Yeon ordered her favorite.

"Two!" Bai Xin Yue added.

Both sat and watched the broadcast. The broadcast showed the first point of view from the participant. So they looked at what Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun looked at.

Heero merely smiled and went back to the kitchen to proceed with the order.

*** ***

Meanwhile, Kang Yun Cheol was watching the same broadcast. Even though he never looked for his son who ran away from home in person, he was updated with everything his son did outside there.

His daughter told him that Kang Dong-Woo participated in the Junior Event. So he bought the special broadcast for his son.

Kang Myung-Chul was sitting not far from Kang Yun Cheol, watching the same broadcast.

After running for a while, Kang Dong-Woo stopped.

"Did you hear that?" Kang Dong-Woo's voice broadcasted. From the words, Kang Dong-Woo was not alone as the question directed to someone near him.

During the survival phase, the participant could team up with other participants. Forming a party during the survival was allowed with a condition of a maximum of five people in one party.

"Yes, two… No, it should be three Steel Gophers…" Another voice resounded.

Steel Gophers was a giant rat with steel-like fur and steel-like claw. It was categorized as Wood Level Monster, but Steel Gophers was considered as the 8th most dangerous in its class.

Kang Myung-Chul furrowed his brows as he was worried about his grandson.

After the discussion between Kang Dong-Woo and his friend. Kang Dong-Woo slowed his advance and sure enough, three Steel Gophers were found.

The three Steel Gophers surrounded a carcass. They just hunted prey and they were currently feasting the prey they got.

"I will face two of them, you can take one!" Kang Dong-Woo's voice resounded.

Kang Myung-Chul instantly rose from the sofa and questioned his son, "Who's allowing Dong-Woo to participate?"

"He is getting even cockier to think he can defeat two Steel Gophers alone because he has awakened an ability! He could die if he is careless!"

Kang Myung-Chul was worried about his grandson. Even though he had trained his grandson, his grandson did not have the experience to fight a wild beast.
