Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1417

On the other side of the arena, Egas was clutching his throat as he coughed non-stop. When he finally recovered from his coughing fit, he looked up and glared at Fade hatefully. Faxon helped him walk down the arena and began treating him when they returned to their seats.

The battles resumed after their little incident. The top eight of the fourth round would compete against each other again in the final round, and the top three of the final round would have the opportunity to challenge the participants in the higher level.

The results for the fourth round were just like what everyone expected. Although Fade had just choked Egas as a warning, he had not caused any substantial damage to him. In the end, he still managed to win first place in Black Level category.

After announcing his victory, he stared at Fade coldly, his expressions hostile.

The audience began to discuss Egas' victory excitedly. His win in this category meant that he would be qualified to join the Earth Level competition, and it also meant that he might fight against Fade.

Everyone couldn't help but feel excited as they thought about it. They were all looking forward to the match as if they were about to watch an interesting show.

After a short break, the Earth Level competition that everyone was looking forward to finally began.

There was no doubt that the Earth Level competition was the main attraction in the Martial Arts Convention and it was the platform for powerful martial artists to show off their strength. More importantly, the top contestants in the Earth Level competition would be qualified to explore the Dragon Mausoleum, which was the main purpose of many masters taking part in the Martial Arts Convention.

Suddenly, the crowd bustled with noise.

Fade supported Jasmine's weight with his arms around her waist and helped her to sit down. "I'm going to draw lots for the competition now. I'll seek revenge for what happened to you just now," he got up and said.

Jasmine's face turned into a worried expression. "Mr. Chen, I'm fine. Please don't be impulsive. What if you put yourself in danger? I'm afraid..."

Fade shook his head and smiled confidently as he reassured her. "Don't worry. This kind of battle is not dangerous to me at all."

Then, he queued up and drew his lot. The competition began immediately.

During the first round, Fade was lucky enough to be paired with one of the three participants who had just ascended from Black Level to Earth Level. The opponent went all out to make it hard for him to win. However, Fade eventually defeated him with only three moves and advanced to the next round smoothly.

As the center of the crowd's attention, Fade's lucky and easy win had raised controversy.

"D*mn it. Fade is so lucky to have such a weak opponent in the first round."

"Could it be that Galeno was secretly helping him? That guy was chatting happily with him just now, and they seemed to have a good relationship."

"No way. Would a highly respected man like Galeno do such a thing?"

"If he doesn't have true strength, even with Galeno's help, all will be futile. He'll definitely encounter powerful masters in the later matches. He won't be so lucky anymore to be running a charade." After the first round of competition, the participants began to draw lots for the second round.

This time, Fade was still the focus of everyone's attention, especially when his opponent was revealed to be Arthur Lin. The crowd's discussion started to heat up.

"Holy sh*t, Arthur Lin! Isn't he the captain of the wood team from Five Elements Squad?"

"Arthur is a middle-stage Earth Level master. He ranks 20th on Dragon List, thus he's undeniably an expert!"

"That kid finally lost his good luck. Let's wait and see how he'll be tortured!"

As the crowd fell into a heated discussion, Egas' face turned into hatred. "That fellow is lucky that he got Arthur first. Now, we won't have a chance to teach him a lesson anymore. He will definitely lose this round."

Faxon darted his eyes at Egas and replied coldly, "Calm down. There are lots of opportunities for revenge. He is not some important person, and we'll deal with him when the time comes. Don't worry about it." "Alright!" Egas nodded.

On the other side of the spectator area, Tom and his friends held different opinions on Fade. Tom looked worried, but Halge, Hertzel, and Lillian were gritting their teeth with resentment. "That guy is going to lose for sure."

"I'd like to see how arrogant he will be when he fights against a master ranked on top of the Dragon List."

"He'd better be teaching him a lesson that he will never forget."

The crowd's attention shifted to Fade when it was his turn to enter the fighting ring.

Fade stepped into the fighting ring with both hands behind his back. He glanced at Arthur, who was standing across him, and asked, "Arthur, do you want me to fight?"

He shook his head bitterly and answered, "Instructor Chen, I didn't expect to meet you in the second round. It's really..."

Fade's facial expressions softened as he noticed Arthur's upset face. He walked over and patted his shoulder to comfort him. "It's alright. Train harder after this. True strength is forever, but these rankings are pretentious."

"Thank you for your guidance, Instructor Chen." Arthur cupped his hands and bobbed his head. He turned to look at the judge and announced in a clear voice, "I admit defeat."

Before anyone could figure out what was happening, Arthur strode out of the fighting ring.

There was a deathly silence when he left the arena. Only when Fade descended from the fighting ring after the referee announced his victory did the dumbstruck crowd come back to their senses and began to discuss among themselves.

"Holy f*ck, what's going on? Arthur just admitted defeat."

"What on earth just happened? Why did Arthur admit defeat? He's a master ranking 20th on the Dragon List!"

"There must be something shady going on. That's for sure."

"Do you still remember their interaction before the match started? That guy is the Five Elements Squad's instructor. That's why Arthur admitted defeat immediately!"

"Why does he deserve to be Five Elements Squad's instructor? Something smells fishy here."

"This guy has a strong backing. In order to win his favor, they even arranged the Five Elements Squad to act alongside him."

The crowd's doubts and gossips filled the entire scene. Some of them even petitioned for the participants to draw lots again and restart the competition.

However, the referee ignored these people's shouts and announced that the competition would continue.

The referee's decision caused an outcry among the audience. They shouted about the shady competition and cried for the unjust treatment between participants as they started booing.

On the other hand, the people on Faxon's side remained quiet. They sneered and whispered, "In that case, let's end him ourselves."

Soon, the second round of the competition was over. Fade advanced to the third round, raising controversy, and he became the focus of everyone's attention.
