Yin-Yang Harmony System

Chapter 140

"Ahem!" Suddenly, MC's throat crash gained their attention as he speechlessly looked at them. His gaze swept the battlefield and said "Congratulation to everyone here for passing the second stage! Since the second stage is complete, we will start the third stage battle tomorrow."

"But I will explain the rules of the third stage today."

He simply snaps his finger and the drone above him presents a massive picture. It was a picture of a forest. There are lots of tall trees, some small rivers, and nothing more. Pointing his finger at the picture, MC explains "For the next Five on Five Battle, we will send twenty teams. Each team will consist of five participants."

"This is a complete virtual stage but death will be real. Once you enter the virtual world, you will land near an airport. There will be few airships waiting for you. They will drop you from the above. You can choose where to drop since you can get a vague map of the forest."

"Upon landing, you need to find a proper hiding place. Inside the forest, there might not be many natural calamities. But, your opponent won't leave you alive since their winning chance is something that both of you need to fight for."

"You have to spend ten hours in the forest. Each hour, two airbags will be dropped by an airship. In ten hours, twenty airbags will land on the ground. Twenty teams, twenty airbags, and ten winners. Your position will be decided on the numbers of airbags you can gather."

"Top ten teams will proceed to the next round and other teams will lose everything. But, you need to have at least one bag. That means if eleven teams do not possess a bag, all eleven teams will be out. Team members aren't random. They could be if you can't find a proper team to join."

"And one more thing! Unlike the previous year, this year your position in the top ten of the tournament will be decided by points. Yes, at every stage, your performance will be scored. Those scores will be added up and the result will be something that no one might have thought off."

"In simple words, your strength, your talent, your brain, your resolution, your hard work, your polite manner of not cursing the examiners, your ability to help your friends, and finally your last stage battle. Of course, those who are already out won't be counted."

"At the very least, you need to survive till the fifth stage."

When MC's finished his speech, the entire crowd began discussing. Many participants including the Aarav, Olive, and Alena were clenching their fists hard.

"Damn! How can they change rules without telling us anything?" Emperor Lewis smashes his on the chair and shouted. His emperor's aura was released as it suffocated other people around him.

"Calm down Lewis! We can't do anything about it." Mad Beast Emperor sighed as he released his aura to suppress Emperor Lewis's aura.

"Aren't you angry? Your disciple cursed them. They might not give him high points." Emperor Lewis turned his head and saw the calm expression on his face. He was surprised that Mad Beast Emperor was this calm.

Normally, he would have started shouting in such conditions.

"Nothing I can do about it! I am already pissed that I couldn't kill that guy. That's why this circumstance is not angering me." Mad Beast Emperor didn't get angry instead sighed. He was angry but he felt his anger will be wasted if he can't do anything.

"Oh!" Emperor Lewis didn't prey deeper into his secrets and changed his expression. His anger instantly flashed away instead anxiety took over him.

As for Fire Emperor, he didn't care too much. His disciples had all the qualities but not the high-level strength. So, he was little assured about them getting a chance to reach the top ten.

On the tournament ground,

Mike was a little bit startled by the third stage. But, he simply doesn't care too much about it since his entire focus was on the ladies. He turned his head at Alena and said "That's awesome! How about we leave now?"

'Dude! This the worst time possible to ask something like that.' Everyone who heard his words gave him a glare but couldn't do anything.

Ava shook her head and said "It seems like I need to discuss this with my team. I should go back."

She turned around and moved away. Seeing this everyone shifted their gaze to Mike to look at his reaction only to find him walking near Alena.

"Miss Alena, if it's not a problem then how about joining my team?"

Ava halted her steps hearing Mike's words. She thought he would try to convince her but he easily let her go. At this moment, Alena pointed her finger at Ava and said "Aren't you going to invite her?"

"Oh! Since Miss already has a team, I don't think it will be a good idea to call her. More importantly, I can't call someone who will immediately change their mind. A team needs someone who can stick to one decision." Although his voice wasn't loud, Ava still heard him.

She clenched her fist as she fumed with anger and turned around. She walked in front of Mike and said "What did you say? Care to repeat again!"

"Oh! Since Miss already has a team, I don't think it will be a good idea to call her. More importantly, I can't call someone who will immediately change their mind. A team needs someone who can stick to one decision." Hearing her words, Mike nods his head and repeats his previous without a second thought.

"You! Who do you think you are to judge me?" Ava pointed her finger at him. At this moment, she was looking down on him since she was six feet while Mike was only five feet eleven inches.

"I'm sorry Miss but you seem to have got the wrong idea about me. I was neither trying to cling to you nor judge you. I was simply asking a beautiful girl for a cup of coffee. And, since you changed your mind so swiftly I thought you can't stick to your thoughts." Mike simply gave her a bow and explained although it was a pure lie.

He was clinging to her but he can't say that.

"And, how did you decide that I would agree? What makes you think of such possibility?" Ava got mad at his honest face and answer. He didn't even blink to make it seem like a lie.

Mike didn't answer her directly. He touches his chin and mumbled "Why do I think that? Huh! That's a tough question!"

"I am clearly not handsome enough." Mike took out the mirror in front of everyone and examined his own face. Then, he thought deeply making everyone dumbfounded. They looked at him with their jaws open.

"Yes, I know the answer." Mike snaps his finger as he finally thinks of the reason and speaks "Because I am a genius and you are a curious girl."

Putong!

'Dude! How can you be so shameless?' Everyone fell on their head upon hearing his answer. The crowd couldn't hear him since they were in the middle. But, seeing their reaction, everyone was confused.

Except for those Kings and Emperors, most of them couldn't hear his words. Mad Beast Emperor was laughing like a maniac after hearing his words. Emperor Lewis had a cold sweat seeing his shamelessness.

Fire Emperor smacked his forehead as he also feared about his disciple. After all, both of his disciples will be in groups with Mike and Olive. One of his disciples is male while other was female. More importantly, his lady disciple always acts like a slut.

He couldn't do anything since her innate ability makes her that. He could only sigh at his disciple's fate

"You? Ahhhh!" Ava felt like strangling Mike but seeing that innocent and straight expression on his face, she couldn't bring herself to do it. It had nothing to do with cuteness. He was just straightly looking at her eyes without even blinking for a moment.

"Let's go!" Suddenly, she catches his hand and walks away between the participants. For a moment, nobody was able to understand what just happened. Even Mike was startled by her actions. He suddenly touches his face and mumbles "I did check my face. I don't think I have become more handsome."

When Ava heard him, she almost hit the ground. But she didn't stop.

Behind her, Olive was left conflicted. She didn't know what to do. And more importantly, she fears Alena had already guessed about her boyfriend's lie.

But deep down, she bitterly smiled because she had already guessed what Alena thinks of her. Nothing has changed. Even her closest friend has changes

"Are you going to let others take your boyfriend away?" Alena suddenly appeared behind Olive and whispered in her ears, freaking her out for a moment.

Olive freaked out like a rabbit as she backed down. But Alena caught her hands and dragged her away "Let's go! If we got late, she might rob him away."

While they got away, they didn't notice few cold eyes looking deeply at them.
