Auric tried his best to dodge past the rapid red dragon-shaped lights, but the indiscriminate attack finally caused Auric to suffer two cuts on his back and left arm!
Bang!
Auric was sent flying and fell with a thud onto the crumbling stage. He lay on his back and looked up at the red light that stabbed straight at his neck.
The audience gasped.
Was Auric going to lose like this?
At the critical juncture, Auric roared, “Your sister is not dead! I know where she is!”
Clang!
That red light suddenly stopped half an inch away from Auric’s neck with monstrous killing intent and chill.
Fennel stood in front of Auric, pointed the red halberd at his neck, and said, “Speak!”
Auric’s forehead was covered in a cold sweat. He took a deep breath and said with a sneer, “If you want to know, you have to admit defeat.”
Hearing that, Fennel frowned and fell silent.
“I can lose this match, but if you lie to me, I’ll kill you!” Fennel said coldly.
Auric said, “I’m telling the truth. The corpse in the coffin you carried back then might not be your sister’s because when we cleaned the battlefield, we didn’t find your sister‘s body. To deal with some things, we randomly found a corpse and closed the coffin. As far as I know, your sister should be in Mystic City…”
“Argh!”
Before Auric could finish his words, Fennel’s red dragon halberd pierced his right shoulder. Fennel said coldly, “This is the price of the competition!”
After saying this, Fennel turned around and walked off the competition stage in style. He had gotten what he wanted.
On stage, Auric was in a miserable state. His right shoulder was penetrated by the red dragon halberd, and his left shoulder was cut.
Although the host did not know what happened on stage, he still shouted, “The winner of the sixth round is Auric Singer of the North!”
However, no cheers came from the audience. Everyone wondered why Fennel conceded defeat at the last moment.
On the high stands, Fennel returned and looked at Philip.
Philip asked, “What happened?”
Fennel replied, “He knows my sister’s whereabouts.”
