Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1718

[You’re on!]

Only then was Evan satisfied. He asked Elijah, “What’s this about withdrawing? I earned my spot in the semi-finals fair and square. Why would they make me withdraw?”

Elijah’s face was dark. “The Thyanians thought you were dead, so they publicly announced your withdrawal. Now all those people from Nipponora, Koryon, and Thyania are saying you withdrew because you were scared!”

“They’re saying you only beat Seker because you cheated! They claim you knew you wouldn’t have a chance to cheat against the real masters, so you just withdrew!”

“I’m changing my clothes,” Evan fumed. “We’re going to the arena!”

An hour later, they arrived at the semi-finals venue.

The couple acting as their bodyguards stayed close to them. Before leaving, Mrs. Gable had applied theatrical makeup to them again to conceal their identities.

The venue was already packed, so they could only find seats in a corner at the back to watch.

Coincidentally, on the stage, the last Zhinorian fighter, number 106, was currently in a match.

His opponent was also number 44!

The semi-finals were a bit different from the preliminaries. In the preliminaries, opponents were matched in order. In the semi-finals, you could choose your opponent.

A total of 36 people were participating in the semi-finals, and only three would advance to the finals!

Once in the finals, they would face off against the top-tier legends!

If they won, they would become famous and earn a respected position in the global martial arts world.

If they lost, it was no disgrace. After all, they were fighting against legends, so it was considered a learning experience.

Therefore, for the semi-finalists, just making it to the finals was a success.

Evan hadn’t even settled in when a commotion erupted in the arena.

The Koryons, Nipponorans, and Thyanians all stood up and began to chant.

“Zhinora is trash! Zhinora is trash! Zhinora is trash!”

They shouted in broken Zhinorian, as if afraid the Zhinorians present wouldn’t understand.

Whistles were mixed in with the chants, their mockery palpable.
