Seeing that it was his turn to fight, Lin Zhen took two deep breaths.
His luck had been poor lately. He had been assigned to Fourth Team, where Qiong Jing's position was unshakable, while the three members of the Endless Race would undoubtedly all target him.
Lin Zhen could imagine their strategy: ensure King Yama advanced, have Red Widow compete for fifth and sixth place, and use the Element Controller as cannon fodder to wear him down.
For Lin Zhen to advance, he had to at least make it into the contest for fifth and sixth place. No matter what, he had to defeat Red Widow.
If he could not defeat her, competing with Augustine would become nothing more than a pipe dream.
The battle began, and Lin Zhen stepped onto the stage.
By convention, the lower-ranked contestant appeared first, while the higher-ranked one entered afterward. It was also a sign of respect for those with higher rankings.
Lin Zhen stood on the stage waiting, but Red Widow took a long time to appear.
Red Widow was a woman clad in blood-colored clothing. Seductive and enchanting, she truly deserved to be called a stunning beauty.
Her true form was a Starry Sky Weaver, essentially an exceptionally unusual kind of spider that could use planets as anchor points to weave a giant web across a small galaxy.
Red Widow was indeed very powerful and quite famous among the Endless Race, but her reputation did not come solely from her strength.
With alluring glances and a flirtatious nature, Red Widow's notorious romantic reputation even overshadowed her status in the Hall of Fame.
Still, spiders were naturally promiscuous, so there was nothing particularly wrong with her behavior.
Just as she was about to take the stage, Red Widow did not immediately step up.
