981 Father, should I challenge him?
"I surrender."
A voice from the crowd was heard. No one knew who said it, however, no person walked out.
"Participant Saldor?" Esme called.
"…" But again, there was no response.
"Participant Saldor, if you do not appear in the next 10 seconds, we will take it that you have surrendered," Esme spoke.
She couldn't be sure that the voice she heard was of Saldor's, however, Esme knew there was a high chance of that being true.
By no means was Valsen weak.
He was a Great Sage Body Cultivator, someone whose strong point was close-distance combat, someone who was most suited for one on one event battles like these.
But even still, Nux played around with him as if he was a child, first, the blindfold, then one arm handicap, then he fought without using his hands at all and it only got worse later. Valsen was utterly outmatched and was humiliated to levels beyond imagination.
No one wanted to suffer through the same fate as him.
People like Saldor who weren't much stronger than Valsen or were probably weaker than him would never want to challenge Nux.
And Esme was right.
10 seconds passed by and Saldor still didn't appear.
"Since Participant Saldor didn't show himself, he will be disqualified, the winner of the second battle, Nux Leander.
Now, the next participant…"
Saldor's decision was the start.
Once his method worked, others decided to follow him as well.
Heck, other participants didn't even talk about surrendering, they just didn't show up and 1 minute later, they were all disqualified.
"Participant Damien hasn't appeared, he is disqualified as well, the next participant…"
"Participant Salva, disqualified."
"Participant Root, disqualified."
"Disqualified."
"Disqualified."
"Winner, Nux Leander."
"…"
"…"
Other than Esme's voice that echoed throughout the stadium, the place was absolutely silent. One had to know, this was an event where challengers wished to win against the Groom to later propose to the Flower of the Blood Kingdom, Melia Bloodheart.
Although nothing was particularly mentioned, there was definitely a hidden age limit to this event.
An old man with a high cultivation base couldn't just appear, challenge and defeat the groom to propose to the bride. Not only was there no honor in that, but that would also be considered disrespectful towards the Bloodheart Family and even the Royal Family.
No sane Vampire would do something like that.
Therefore, the only Vampires who registered for this event were from the younger generation. None of them were much stronger than Valsen and most of them were only Great Sages, heck some of the challengers were even Sages and Emperors. None of them dared to show up.
Valsen was definitely not one of the strongest participants in this event, however, he was definitely above average. Challengers stronger than him knew that they couldn't have defeated Valsen the way Nux did.
