Even though Leighton was much more vigilant towards Fade because of what had happened to Egas, the very thing he was trying to avoid still happened. A horrible weight crushed against his body as he was about to utter the last word. The final word was stuck in his throat as it struggled to escape his lips.

His bloodshot eyes widened in horror. He shook his head desperately, trying to convey his intention to admit defeat. However, his entire body was paralyzed under Fade's unforgiving force.

As he watched Fade's fist that was about to hit his chest, Leighton felt the despair at the brink of his death. "Am I going to die in the arena like Egas?" He thought.

The audience below the stage was equally shocked. They thought that he would surely be killed.

At that critical moment, Fade felt an invisible and majestic force shooting towards him. It blocked his attack and bought Leighton some time.

As soon as Leighton felt that the weight on him was lifted, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "I admit defeat, I admit defeat! Referee, quickly

announce..."

The referee was as shocked as him. When he finally came to his senses, he quickly announced, "The winner of this round Fade."

Fade stared at Leighton with a murderous gaze for a while. Finally, he withdrew his fist and turned to head towards the audience seats.

On his way back, he glanced at Dannon in the VIP seat with a cold stare.

He was almost certain that Dannon was responsible for the mysterious force that intervened in his battle at the crucial moment. There was probably no one else on the scene who could block his punch so soundlessly.

"You can save him once, but you can't save him forever," Fade murmured to himself as he glared at Dannon.

Dannon, who was not looking at Fade at all, frowned slightly and turned his head towards his direction as he heard him. He shot a meaningful stare at Fade with a hint of warning in his eyes.

Fade ignored his warning and returned to his seat. He shut his eyes and regulated his breathing to restore his strength.

His victory over Egas was still within many people's expectations, but now, he had defeated Leighton. Moreover, it was in such a simple manner. This result was beyond many people's expectations.

In the midst of the crowd's discussion, this round of competition finally ended. Fade had successfully entered the top eight.

The next round would still be a one-to-one duel, but it was different from the previous matches, as the fight between the eight participants would be relatively less intense. After all, those who reached the top eight would be qualified to explore the Dragon Mausoleum, and the following rounds were just to determine the ranking of the participants on the Dragon List.

Of course, the titles and rewards could not be compared to the Dragon Mausoleum.

Therefore, in the following quarterfinals, as long as the participants felt that they were no match to the other, they would voluntarily give up and preserve their strength to prepare for the Dragon Mausoleum. Fade's opponent from the quarterfinals knew that he was no match for him and conceded defeat after exchanging only three moves with Fade.

The next opponent in the semifinals happened to be his friend. It was Romeo, the captain of the Five Element Squad's Gold Squad.

After his previous experience with Fade, Romeo did not have any intention to fight against him. Instead, he admitted defeat as soon as he stepped into the fighting ring.

Just like that, Fade successfully advanced into the finals. The one-to-one final match would determine the champion of the Earth Level category.

His opponent was none other than Faxon, who ranked second on the Dragon List.

Both participants of the final battle were respectively the number one and number two on the Dragon List. Not only that, there were all sorts of disputes between them throughout the competition. The atmosphere of the final battle immediately became tense due to their relationship.

The surrounding audience waited nervously for the battle to start.

The betting stalls on the roadside became more lively as everyone was placing bets on their champion candidates. At the same time, they chatted enthusiastically.

"Without a doubt, Faxon will definitely be the champion! He has been the hottest topic ever since the beginning." "I would have agreed with you if it were before, but now, I don't think anyone can be certain about the current situation. Fade is equally powerful too, and we can't underestimate him."

"No matter how strong he is, he is still far inferior to Young Master Faxon when it comes to their strength. You don't have to doubt his strength."

"When Fade fought against Egas and Leighton earlier, you said the same thing, but look at the results now."

The noises of their discussion and arguments filled the arena.

At this moment, Fade remained calm. Sitting on the VIP seat, he shut his eyes to rest as he prepared himself for the upcoming battle.

On the other side of the VIP area, Faxon watched him spitefully. He kept stealing glances at him with a sharp coldness in his eyes.

Dannon noticed his gaze and gently reminded, "Faxon, you must stay calm before the battle in order to stay composed during the battle and not make mistakes. You are too impatient now." Faxon said, "Master, I understand. However, I'm certain that my seven-level strength will be enough to defeat that guy."

"Don't be too careless. That kid's strength is a little unusual," Dannon said.

"Don't worry, Master. I won't lose," he said with confidence. "Also, I will take back my position as number one on the Dragon List. I'll let those who misjudged him regret their decision." After he finished speaking, Faxon and Dannon looked at Galeno in unison.

Previously, when the Dragon List was announced, it was because of Galeno's insistence that Fade, who suddenly appeared on the Dragon List, be promoted to the top of the ranking. Faxon and Dannon refused to let this matter go. They were still displeased with the arrangement.

If Faxon could defeat him in this competition and officially secure his position on the Dragon List, it would be a slap in Galeno's face.

The final battle was held on the highest fighting ring in the center of the lake, and it began in a tense and hostile atmosphere.

Under the referee's order, the two people got up from their seats and walked towards the main fighting ring.

When they arrived at the shore, Faxon turned his head and snorted at Fade. Then, he leaped into the air and flew more than 20 meters away. Finally, he landed gracefully on the fighting ring in the center of the lake. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, and the sight of his elegant and handsome poise caused a group of female martial artists to scream and go crazy over him.

"Young Master Faxon's moves are so cool."

"Young Master Faxon indeed lives up to his name. I am rendered speechless by his strength and elegance."

"Young Master Faxon, I love you. I want to have your babies."

Fade ignored Faxon's charade and walked slowly on the wooden bridge along the lake as he headed towards the ring in the center of the lake.
