Primordial Chaos Dragon Tower: Harem System
Chapter 735 - 735: The Competition (3)Kent looked at the blue-haired, handsome young man named Laith before him and smiled. Of course, he planned not to use the arrows again.
During the battles he observed, he developed several skills and planned to utilize them effectively. He was able to master those skills simply by observing the contestants’ battle.
So he knew he wouldn’t overwhelm his opponents again if he used their own skills against them.
“Begin.”
The moment the order was given, the blue-haired half-Elf conjured a giant scythe and slashed it at Kent. It was made from red flame, so as the scythe moved, a trail of crimson fire followed it.
However, Kent stood there watching the scythe close in. When it was a few meters from him, he snapped his fingers, and a shield appeared.
The moment the shield appeared, Ember, the red-haired beauty who fought first in the first round, widened her eyes.
“That is my flame skill. He is using my skill.”
Others noticed this, too. However, what shocked them was that when the scythe landed on the shield, instead of a whirlwind of infernal energy emerging from the shield like Ember’s skill, ten tendrils appeared and shot at Laith.
Standing among the contestants, a young lady named Josselin narrowed her eyes when the tendrils appeared.
“That is my ‘Dancing Tendrils’ skill. How did he merge my skill with Ember’s skills?”
But Kent wasn’t done. The moment the tendrils latched onto Laith, a lotus bloomed beneath Laith and exploded, sending him flying off the stage.
Adrie stood among the contestants, her face in a shocked expression. “That was my Exploding Lotus skill. How did he know how to use that?”
Up in the viewing area, Queen Jascia stared at Kent with a shocked expression. “Did he just use not one but three skills from three different people?”
The shocked expression on her face only deepened, knowing full well that was what had happened. Kent indeed used the skills of his fellow contestants. He mastered all their skills to the point that he could use all of them without any issue.
“Is that even possible?” Princess Elowen, seated beside her mother, asked, also looking in Kent’s direction with a shocked expression.
“Kent Madson, if you don’t mind, I have a question for you.” The queen needed answers, so she asked, and Kent turned in her direction.
“I don’t mind, my Queen,” Kent said with a straight face.
“The skills you just used—were they copied from your fellow contestants?” the queen asked, and Kent nodded, dumbfounding everyone.
“I am sorry if that was offensive. However, after my first battle, I realized that my skills are not suited for friendly fighting like this.
All the skills I possess are for killing, but I am not here to traumatize anyone. This was why I had to get creative and tone things down a bit, so I copied a few skills.
And I have to say, these skills have potential.” Kent paused and turned to the people whose skills he copied.
“I am sorry if my actions offended you.”
Both the queen, the contestants, and the audience could only stare at Kent with expressions of shock.
Queen Jascia studied Kent’s expression for a few seconds and then nodded.
“You’ve done nothing bad, Kent. In battle, being able to learn your opponent’s moves is half the battle won. So, having the capabilities to copy the skills of your opponents in this contest shows you are not someone to underestimate.”
She turned to the contestants. “This is a lesson to you all. Sometimes, you will meet people like him. People who don’t follow the same rules as we do. They are monsters beyond our comprehension.
People who will do things that don’t align with common sense—things like copying your skills and using them more effectively than you.
However, instead of feeling offended, you should instead grab this opportunity and learn from him, for you never know when he will be leaving.” The queen smiled.
“In other words, all of you should show him your skills in the contest and let him help you gain a better understanding of them. Don’t waste this opportunity.
And that is your punishment for stealing other people’s skills, Kent Madson.” Kent smiled, hearing how shameless the queen sounded.
She never failed to secure an opportunity for her people.
“I will do my best to handle my punishment with dignity, my Queen,” Kent responded.
“You better.”
Kent walked away, and the queen leaned back in her chair. After a few seconds, she turned to Princess Elowen.
“I need his genes.”
Princess Elowen widened her eyes, then a blush appeared on her face, causing her to turn away. “Oh, don’t be a baby, Elowen. He is a perfect gentleman to have some babies with. So what do you say—two daughters and a son… That will be enough for me.”
“Mom…” Princess Elowen’s blush deepened. She turned to her father to come to her rescue, but the king just smiled, shaking his head.
“Your mother is not wrong, though. That handsome human has all the qualities of a good husband.” And just like that, Princess Elowen was forced to run out of the room to calm her nerves, leaving her two parents to laugh at her predicament.
“She is still a baby,” Queen Jascia said.
“She is over a thousand years old, but I guess she is still a baby.”
The remaining battles happened after Kent’s dominance. After every last battle was fought, only 551 remained.
Those who washed out received their gifts with smiles on their faces. After the second round, they were given two two-hour breaks to recover before the third round.
During the recovery period, Kent used the time to document all the spies he had identified, providing sufficient evidence to support his claim.
He knew that after the king and the elders reviewed his documents, they would confirm that every last one of the spies he had discovered was indeed true.
After resting, Lord Yael appeared again to tell them how the third round would happen.
Also, at this rate, the allure of walking home with a Mythic Grade Ambrosia apple and a 10,000-year-old Soul Cleansing Berry made all those who qualified for the third round more than happy.
“The third stage will see only ten of you qualifying…” Lord Yael began.
