His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 1964

The man remained silent, unwilling to answer.

"If you don't tell me, then I'll beat you until you say it," Joey declared with her eyes filled with anger.

However, at this critical moment, the referee announced, "The competition is over. Stop now. Otherwise, if you violate the rules, you will be disqualified."

"You..." Joey clenched her fists and turned angrily to the referee.

Fade quickly pulled on her clothes and said, "Joey, there's no need to be angry."

On the podium, Galeno shouted sternly, "Take that man down and investigate him carefully. You must get to the bottom of this."

Immediately, someone stepped on the stage and took the man who had violated the rules away.

Later, Galeno turned around and looked at the crowd on the podium. He said in a low voice, "This is a competition that relates to the selection for the International Youth Martial Arts Convention, and it is also related to the big event in our country of the martial arts world. If some people want to hide their selfish motives and secretly cause troubles, once I find out, don't blame me for the repercussions you face."

In an instant, the entire podium fell silent. No one said anything.

Only Dannon smiled as he responded, "Old Zhu, you're being too serious. I think that it was just an accident. Don't be so serious."

"It better be an accident!" Galeno snorted coldly. "That referee from earlier, he isn't qualified. Change the referee to someone else."

Upon hearing that, the corner of Dannon's mouth lifted up. He smiled but didn't say anything.

The first round of the chaotic battle was finally over, and the 32 contestants who had qualified had all been determined.

The people who were promoted were about the same as what everyone had expected. Almost all of the top 30 masters in the ranking list had been promoted. There were only a few who were unexpected. Of course, the biggest dark horse among them was Joey, who wasn't even on the ranking.

Not only did she qualify herself, she even did so while protecting Fade. Everyone judged that she was definitely a remarkable opponent.

On top of that, she was beautiful. She quickly garnered the attention of many, and was named one of the two beauties present. The other beauty was obviously Bella.

After the first round of matches, everyone was given an hour to recover their stamina and heal their injuries. After that, they would draw lots and divide themselves into groups for the next round of competition.

Time passed quickly. The contestants entered the arena and began to draw lots.

This time, the lots were no longer drawn by a computer. The contestants had to physically draw lots, and the results were announced on the spot.

This undoubtedly added a strong sense of tension, which made the audience and contestants grow nervous.

When the contestants who were ranked close to the bottom were selected, there was a burst of cheers. When the people who were ranked close to the front were selected, there was a chorus of sighs.

Of course, except for Fade.

Almost all of the contestants on the scene, at this moment, wished that they would be able to compete against Fade.

After all, in their minds, Fade had advanced with the help of Joey and the armor that he had on.

Therefore, everyone thought that he would be the easiest target.

Moreover, there was no way for Joey to protect Fade during this round. Unless she could take the chance to compete with Fade, and then give him a chance by giving up, he would then be promoted. Otherwise, he would not be able to advance any further under the circumstances.

As a result, when Joey drew the 12th contestant on the ranking list, it also announced that the possibility of competing against Fade was destroyed.
