The Medallion

"Let's go and take a look!" The initially enchanting face of the Magic Phoenix Empire's queen suddenly grew very serious, revealing the graveness of her position.

Felicia nodded at once. Then, turning to glance at Rocky and the three women, she nodded slightly at them, too. Then, she went with the queen to the square of the martial arts contest first.

"Basil, then shall we..." Sabina looked to Rocky inquisitively.

"Let's go and have a look, too," Rocky said after thinking for a while. After the abnormal phenomenon last night, he had a hunch that something was going to happen. Now that the spirit manipulator had gone crazy at the martial arts contest, he was somewhat concerned.

Thus, Rocky and the three women followed after the queen and Felicia.

When they arrived at the square where the martial arts contest was held, they saw that it was a total mess. At that time, many spirit manipulators present were staring at the battle ring where Erica was.

Erica's delicate face looked pale and she kept panting. She had been seriously injured, but was still fighting with a man who looked about forty years old garbed in a cyan robe. The man looked gentle, but upon a closer look, they found that his eyes shone with green light. His face was ferocious, and his body emitted a strange aura that shouldn't have belonged to a spirit manipulator.

When the queen and Felicia arrived, they could do nothing but sit before the hall at the front of the square and wait, since the competition was still going on.

Soon, Rocky noticed that the other spirit manipulators standing on the other battle rings were also in the same situation. They looked completely different from ordinary people. The ferocious look in their eyes was enough to make people shudder, as though they were crazed from hunger.
