Martial Arts Worlds - Chapter 237
Chapter 237: World Fighting League
“Thank you so much!”
“Hey, everyone, Kiernan got our stuff back!”
“Whoa, that was fast!”
As soon as Kiernan returned back to the dormitory with the bag of stolen stuff, the students swarmed to him like flies and excitedly took back the stuff they had lost.
It hadn’t even been thirty minutes since Kiernan left to fetch the stuff back, and he had already returned!
Julian watched from the sidelines and couldn’t understand how Kiernan found the stuff so quickly.
Kiernan accepted the thank-yous, then returned back to his room and saw that it was also cleaned by others.
The mess caused from the cut-open punching bag was cleaned neatly, and the fallen couch was upright and spotless.
“Achoo!”
Kiernan suddenly sneezed and pinched his nose in surprise.
“Bless you.”
From the door, Julian said, and entered the room with a music player in hand. It was the only item that got stolen from him, as it was pretty much his only belonging.
He was pretty pissed off about it getting stolen.
“Thanks, I guess I am getting the flu.”
Kiernan said with an uncomfortable look on his face and sat down on the couch.
“What the hell is that?”
Julian walked to his desk and saw the six-pointed star drawn on it. It had slightly faded off, but it was still pretty obvious.
“Are you practicing witchcraft or what?”
“It was already there when I got this room.”
Kiernan said and lay down on the couch, stretching his arms out.
“How did you find them so quickly? The stolen items, I mean.”
Julian asked out of curiosity.
“I might not look like it, but I am smart, and the thieves were dumb. I knew there was an abandoned school building by the forest. It was the spot that came to my mind where they might have hidden the stolen items.”
“Oh? If I had known about that place, I guess I could’ve figured that out as well. I guess they didn’t expect any of us to know about that place.”
Kiernan nodded in agreement.
Knock! Knock!
A fellow student knocked on the door and said.
“Julian and Kiernan, since Mika recovered his laptop, we thought about watching incoming World Fighting League matches. Want to come watch?”
“Sure!”
Julian said, and tossed Kiernan’s slippers over to him. They landed on his stomach.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
“Ugh, I don’t know. I might be getting a flu, so I might relax for the night.”
Kiernan said lazily.
“Cmon, it is a sick match today. You can’t miss it!”
Julian said excitedly.
“Urgh…”
Kiernan sat back up, put the slippers on, and followed the two to Mika’s room, where most of the male students were already sitting and surrounding the desk with a laptop.
The match was starting soon.
“Who is fighting?”
Kiernan asked and sat down to watch.
“It’s between Godspeed Monarchy and Rexi-Da-Merci. It is a match of the Emperor League!”
“Emperor League?”
Kiernan asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Oh, you don’t know? You haven’t been watching any World League Matches?”
The others looked surprised as they thought Kiernan was a fighting fanatic and would be up-to-date with the World Fighting League, but it looked like they were mistaken.
“Eh, I don’t really know anything, so I appreciate you filling me in.”
“Okay! World Fighting League is separated into three leagues—King League, Legend League, and Emperor League.
“As you can guess, only Martial Kings participate in King League. Martial Legends participate in Legend League, and Martial Emperors participate in Emperor League.
“Emperor League is the highest level of martial arts!
“There are clubs in every league. The clubs have three main fighters and two reserve fighters, just like in the nationals system.
“Today, Godspeed Monarchy are among the newer clubs. They’ve only existed for a few years but have already made a name for themselves with their skilled fighters.
“They’re a very exciting club to watch because all of their fighters are speedster types. Therefore, they’re a club with the fastest martial artists!
“Their opponents are Rexi-Da-Merci. That is a very old club, been existing for like two hundred years; it is one of the oldest clubs in the world.
“In two hundred years, they’ve won three championships. You must think that’s not much, but that club has been crowned as the world champion three times, which is an honor that some clubs have never achieved in their entire existence.”
Kiernan listened with great interest.
“Rexi-Da-Merci is a pretty unique club. It is hard to survive for long in the World Fighting League, and clubs disband quite frequently. However, Rexi-Da-Merci had been surviving for two hundred years, which is insane.”
Julian said.
“It is starting!”
…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Fireworks exploded across the sky with vibrant colors.
The stadium roared with excitement. The tiles, which the stadium was built on, started rumbling as if it were about to fall apart.
Through the two entrances, the members of Godspeed Monarchy and Rexi-Da-Merci entered the arena, waving towards the crowd who showered them with applause and cheers.
“Welcome everyone to today’s spectacle between Godspeed Monarchy and Rexi-Da-Merci!”
The announcer’s voice blasted through the stadium and into the ears of watchers who watched from home.
“The season is halfway done, and this is the third match between these two teams, who are both fighting for a chance at the upcoming World Championships!
“Rexi-Da-Merci comes to this match with a record of 11 wins and 18 losses. They had a very difficult start to the season, but they’re slowly picking up the pace once again!
“Godspeed Monarchy has the third-best record of the Emperor League with 23 wins and 6 losses.
“This year, the record between these two teams is two victories and one loss. Currently, Godspeed Monarchy has defeated Rexi-Da-Merci two times this season!”
The stadium’s ground split open. The crowd exclaimed in amazement. Then, the stage for this upcoming match appeared in the stadium.
Through the ground, water started pouring in, filling the arena into a sea within minutes. Then, a stage rose up from the ground.
It was a rock platform, now standing in the middle of the sea. It was large and surrounded by roaring waves.
From both teams, one person took the rowboat and made their way to the platform, where they hopped off the boat and climbed up the rock face to reach the top.
