The rest of the families’ senior members also showed a worried look.
There was only a few kilometers away from the finish line, and anything could happen at this time.
From a certain viewpoint, this competition could affect the structure of Evergreen Town’s major families.
Hence, most of the senior members of the clans broke out in a sweat. Violet was only three kilometers away from the finish line, and he felt as if his chest burned as he was breathing.
Nonetheless, he knew the pain was from Zephyr’s slam. No matter what, that was also a peak first- stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator’s attack.
The fact that Violet could last for so long was awe-inspiring. ‘The final three kilometers.’ Violet gritted his teeth, and there was a strong sweet, metallic taste of blood in his mouth.
At this time, an ear-splitting sound came from behind him. Violet frowned and raised the Blazing Spear behind him. Clank! An arrow exploded. Violet turned around and saw a young man standing proudly among the crowd. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
With his hair fluttering in the wind, the man’s bowstring was still buzzing. He stared at Violet and shouted, “It’s the final distance! Everyone, stop that lowly man! Don’t let him humiliate our Evergreen Town‘s family names!” As soon as he said that, several sharp arrows blasted out from the crowd like a clap of lightning. “Stop him!” “That’s right! He’s just a lowly person marrying into another family! How can we let him win the Dark Moon Sect’s spot!” “Don’t we have other candidates? Why are we letting him get first place?!” “If I’m the Dark Moon Sect‘s elder, what would I think of the Evergreen Town if I saw this scene?” “We can’t let him win!” “Let’s work together! If this guy wins, it’ll bring great shame to our Evergreen Town!” Perhaps it was the warriors’ greed, indignance, resentment, or even jealousy… Under those various emotions, they worked together just to stop Abraham. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Swoosh! The sharp arrows were all aimed at Josef, causing his advancement to come to a halt temporarily.
Once again, the distance between Violet and these warriors was shortened. Seeing this scene, the senior members of various clans sat at the finish line as well as the other spectators were excited.
Initially, Violet led the race, yet he suddenly turned into the most hated person, and everyone was targeting him. Alder, who had a gentle personality, could not help but frown.
“How can they do that? The cultivator world greatly respects one’s strength.
Aren’t they being ridiculous for doing this?” William also could not help but shake his head.
However, none of them present expressed their concern, but they secretly glanced at Ian.
After all, Ian was the person qualified to make a final decision.
Nevertheless, Ian did not show any expression on his face, and he quietly watched the scene unfold in front of him. His attitude puzzled everyone. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Violet’s last three kilometers would be difficult.
The crowd quickly caught up the tens of meters distance behind him, and all his success was about to fail at the end. Many people sympathized with Josef, but there were more people, and the warriors of other families were all secretly cheering for Violet’s defeat.
Such a scene was exactly to their liking. ‘This bunch of guys… Are so annoying…’ Violet’s heart burned with rage.
However, he got closer to the finish line, and it was not worth it to be bothered about these men. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly shouted, “Casper, you went back on your words.
You stole my spirit essence, and now you want to ruin the entire Evergreen Town’s image?! Everyone, don’t let him get away!” When Violet heard that, he turned around and saw Jack grinning among the crowd, looking pleased with himself.
His expression was full of mockery. Violet’s rage in his heart instantly exploded. “Jack Ford!” He roared and sped up. “The Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows!” Violet’s speed was at its peak.
Those groups of warriors who chased after him barely realized what went on, and they only noticed that Violet was only less than a kilometer away from the finish line.
Then, with a blink of an eye, Violet was only about 100 meters away from the finish line. During that time, they only ran more than 200 meters.
Hence, the group of warriors’ hearts sank.
Those senior members of the clans who were excited to watch Violet make a fool out of himself were dumbfounded, and they only felt their heads buzzing. Violet’s movement was so quick, and it appeared as he exceeded the True Martial Realm? 50 meters! 40 meters! 30 meters! Violet got closer to the finish line, and the distance between him and the group of warriors chasing after him was more significant too.
Looking at the scene, there was no way the situation would turn around.
Jack’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
If he knew that his words would provoke Josef, Jack would not have said anything.
At this time, Jack really wanted to give himself a hard slap. 25 meters! 20 meters! Everyone present thought Violet would rush to the finish line as fast as he could and complete the race.
However, just as when he was about 20 meters away, Violet suddenly stopped in his tracks. Under everyone’s astonished gaze, Violet grabbed onto the Blazing Spear and slowly turned around, facing the group of warriors who were coming like a tide. As everyone stepped on the ground, there was a lot of noise.
Violet’s eyes turned focused, and his body emitted a mountain-like majestic aura. When the sprinting warriors saw the scene, they were first stupefied, but soon, they showed a look of joy. “That guy is crazy!” “Hahahaha! Our chance is finally here!” “He actually stopped in his tracks!” “Is he admitting defeat?” “He knew that he would provoke all of us if he won first place.
It’s good that he’s self-aware!” “Since he‘s willingly giving up, we should spare his insignificant life.” “It’s a great chance! Everyone, let’s go!” As the group of warriors roared, everyone’s face showed a look of extreme excitement. Those who wanted to win the Dark Moon Sect’s spot were even more motivated at this time, and they planned to sprint violently to the finish line at the end and win the place. However, those behind the finish line all showed a puzzled expression, and they could not help but wonder what Violet was planning to do. Even Ian’s eyes flashed with doubts and confusion this time.
He was ready to announce Violet as the winner of this competition. The warriors were catching up to Abraham. Two kilometers… One kilometer… 200 meters… 100 meters… Everyone could see Violet’s chest was slightly undulating.
Then, Violet suddenly raised his head, and he showed a ghastly smile.
It was as if Violet was a hibernating behemoth that suddenly showed its teeth. “Don’t even think about getting over the finish line with me here.” “Didn’t you say that I’m not worthy of winning the competition? Then let me be the last and only one who is qualified to cross the finish line.” “Jack, this time… I must kill you!”
