Zhaang Ye's and Lee Lie's gazes met. A slight smile touched Lee Lie's lips. He approached Zhaang Ye and said in a low voice, "Your next opponent in the group stage is Luo Duan, and mine is Zhou Gang. Their skills are pretty similar, so let's see who can finish their fight faster."
Without waiting for Zhaang Ye to agree, he strode away.
Zhaang Ye gave a wry smile. 'Looks like this Lee Lie's desire for battle is even stronger than mine,' he thought.
Two Hours later, the second round of the group stage began. A victory in this round meant advancing from the group and entering the top twenty. A loss meant they would have to fight for a ranking between twenty-first and fortieth place.
The Zhaang Family's situation was not good. Of their twenty contestants, fourteen had been eliminated in the first round. Only six remained to enter the second round and fight to advance from their groups.
