Chapter 61
Pop-!
One by one, the gray elves, enveloped in bright light, gathered in the waiting room.
Most were battered and exhausted, but a few looked surprisingly calm.
“Hey, look over there. That tiny guy in the robe? He’s pretty good, huh?”
“About thirty gathered? Still, it’ll be tough to make it to the finals.”
When Dojae arrived, there were already 32 gray elves present, and the waiting room quickly filled with more.
However, as time passed, fewer and fewer Grey Elves returned, and soon the sound of a trumpet echoed through the air.
Puuu-!
“The first preliminary round is over! After a short break, we’ll start the second preliminary round immediately!”
Of the nearly 300 participants who started, only 100 remained after the first preliminary round.
With the densely packed participants reduced to a third, the surrounding view became clearer. Dojae spotted the man with the headdress standing at the very front.
Dojae immediately headed toward the man to take the leaf of Actria.
But then.
Thud.
Someone grabbed Dojae’s robe.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t touch that guy.”
Turning his head, he saw the female Grey Elf who had helped him enter the tournament.
She was smiling faintly at Dojae.
“What about you?”
“Hey? Lee Dojae. Made it through the first round, huh? How about we chat during the break? We can put that guy on hold for a bit.”
She looked at the man Dojae was watching.
Her smiling face turned serious.
