Qu Rou (Xiao Mei) also won her arena match. Although she had not fought all the way to the end like Da Zhuang, the battle had still drained her terribly, leaving her almost exhausted.
The Knight Organization was one of the West's top nonhuman organizations. Naturally, the talents it focused on cultivating were not weak.
Her opponent excelled in speed and had suppressed Qu Rou badly. She had lost because she ran out of stamina.
However, the Knight Organization had another match next, against another Divine Land contestant. This was already the third time that day the Knight Organization had encountered one.
This opponent was not from the Administration Bureau's National Team, but from Zhongnan Mountain's academic faction—a delicate-looking young Daoist.
The Knight Organization's contestant was known as the second Seed Player, a rare female knight: Alan.
Unexpectedly, this female knight ultimately defeated the young Daoist... From this battle onward, Divine Land's eight-match winning streak was ended.
It was like an injection of adrenaline for the contestants from all the major teams.
Looking at the second-stage Arena Competition schedule, it was not difficult to see that the organizers had deliberately targeted Divine Land's contestants in the match assignments... Divine Land's contestants would easily be matched against the Seed Players of various organizations.
Faced with such deliberately targeted assignments, Divine Land's representatives did not seem inclined to protest at all.
--"What would protesting accomplish? Our people won't meet before the finals. I don't even know which Big Smart came up with this nasty trick..."
--"It's both a challenge and an opportunity. As long as they aren't afraid of the challenge, if Divine Land's contestants win, they'll all make it to the finals, greatly increasing their chances of competing for the championship... Maybe it'll be like the small-ball event at the Olympics,
